Fights Ovv Willamette felly, ft fwfr 1-73 Urn 'Cats Close 14-Point Gap, Falter at Finish Br DAVE BARROWS A highly-touted Conzaf a I quintet, which wun't supposed to have much trouble in down ing the Willamette university cagera, found more to handle than expected here last night in winning J1-7J. Willamette, playing by far its best game of the season, threw a scare in the Bulldogs when it bounced in the second quarter to make the score 35 30 at the half, in favor of the Bulldogs, after being down 9 23 at the end of the first pe riod. Tied la Srd Quarter The third period was a closely waged affair with Wil lamette almost being able to take the lead, but dot quite. The closest It did come was ' midway in the period when Pete Reed tied it up at 43-43 wilh a free-throw. However, Gonzaga came right back with a free-shot of -its own and held the lead until the end of the quarter. The score at this point was S4-S9, Gonzaga's favor. - As the final period opened. neither team was able to score until, with a minute and 53 sec onds gone, Dick Hoy pushed one through for the Bearcats. This was the first time that Willamette had owned the lead. The' were able to hold the lead for only about 2 mln utes as Bob Richardson, Gon raga forward, put the .Bull dogs out in front and although the Bearcats were able to tie the score on several occasions. they were never able to regain tnai ieaa. Gap Closed In 2nd Quarter - In a hard-fought, exciting first half, Willamette was al most able to overtake Gonzaga on a number of occasions, but every time the Bearcats were able to come within two' points of knotting it up, the Bulldogs would sink a shot and so it Willamette, alfhough most of the team possessing the small er team on the floor, had more fight and hustle. This was par ticularly true In the second half. The Bearcat passing while improved, was still not up to Coach Lewis' standards. The losers were paced by Guard Jerry McCallister, who tanked 15 points from his guard position. Dick Hoy and Tom Gooding scored 11 and 10 respectively. Scoring honors went to Guard Tom Mulcahy, who dropped 13 points through for the winning cause. Gonzaga played without the services of their Ail-American candidate, Jerry Vermillion; and for part of the game with out their first-string center, Jerry Wells, who was Injured at the beginning of the second half. This week-end, the Bearcats will travel to Tacoma, Wash., to meet the College of Puget Sound. Next Wednesday and Thursday they will return to their home floor for two coo testa with the Chico State crew from California. s ' if?'
