7 of Next
10 Games
Are Away
Only Northwest conference ac
tion of the week will occur when
Bearcats and Badgers gnash their
teeth Saturday night at Forest
Grove in a game which won't
change standings no matter which
way it goes.
Willamette university's 4-0 rec
ord compares to Pacific's 2-5 cellar
rating and nearest threat to the
Bearcats in the still young season
is College of Idaho (4-41, Whitman
(4-4) and Linficld (3-3). The
thought that chills coach John
Lewis occasionally is the idea that
seven of the next 10 Bearcat games
are on the road where hospitality
is rare.
Lewis said today that his start
ers will be the solid five who have
surprised some early season pro
phets of doom: Tom Gooding at
center, Pete Reed and Dick Hoy
at forward, Jerry McCallister and
Duane "Lefty" Shield as the play
making guards.
" On the opposition .roster are at
least three scoring dangers, Norm
Hubert, runner-up to R. C. Owens
in conference bucket busting: Clint
Agee, the 6-7 center; and Danny
French, 6-2 forward. Hubert is one
f the more effective point and
playmakers.

To Fight Slade
On TV Tonight
By JACK HAND
NEW YORK lB-If Harold John
son doesn't trip over Jimmy Slade
tonight at St. Nicholas Arena, he
may finally get his title shot at
Archie Moore, the light heavy
weight champ. ,
Philadelphia is the likely site
some balmy night next July, pro
vided promoter Herman Taylor of
fers enough cash to convince
Charlie Johnston, Archie's propri
etor. The odds of 4-1 favoring Johnson
give Slade little chance but the
27-year-old New Yorker can be a
very rough character when in the
mood. They say he has been in
the gym for a month getting ready
for this one. ' '
The bout will be on radio (ABC)
and television (NBC) starting at
10 p.m., EST.
Bevo Averaging
47.4, 16 Games
NEW YORK ffl When Bevo
Francis scores less than 47 points,
he's having a bad night and the
Rio Grande (Ohio) hot shot has
been having very few of them this
season.
Latest small-college basketball
figures released by the NCAA
Service Bureau show the elongated
center has tossed in 759 points in
the 16 games he s played for a
healthy average of 47.4 points per
tilt.
Francis added 136 points in three
games last week to his already
sizable total.
His closest competitors are Car
son Lovett of Franklin ana Marsn
all with a 32.3 per game average
and Bob Hopkins of Grambling
who has scored 591 points in 22
games.

NEW YORK to-Fabulous Frank
Selvy from Furman University fig
ures to break basketball's all-time
individual scoring for a three-year
major college Career record some
time within the next 10 days.
If he can keep up his most recent
pace he will do it before the week
is over. ,
A Scoring Marvel '
Selvy is a scoring marvel, the
likes of which never before has
been seen on a basketball court.
After two seasons of play with the
Greenville. S.C., school he has
scored 1,803 points. He needs just
86 more to pass Kansas' Clyde
Lovellette's record and he has 15
regular-season games to play.
Last night against Presbyterian,
he scored 48 points, the eighth time
in 12 games this season that he's
hit 40 or more and the fifth time
he's been above 45. His average
for the dozen contests is 39.5, ex
actly 10 points above the single
season record he set a season ago.
He has played twice since he
paused for midterm exams. The
first game after his rest ho scored
45 points. Tonight he goes against
Newberry and tomorrow against
Clemson. Those 86 points may
come in the two games. If they
don't he's got two more games
coming up next week against
Manhattan College in Madison
Square Garden Thursday and
against La Salle in Philadelphia
baturday.
beivy s show last night helped
Furman overpower Presbyterian
109-79 and bring their season's
mark up to 6-6.

Spokane Hires
Babe Curfman
Business Mgr.
SPOKANE W) The Spokane
Indians of the Western Interna
tional Baseball League Thursday
hired an ex-football coach as busi
ness manager and gave him or
ders to "fill ud the nark."
Raymond (Babe) Curfman, who
resigned last month as head foot
ball coach at the University of
Idaho, was given the assignment
by Indian owner Hoy tiatcnKiss.
Hotchkiss said his only instruc
tions to Curfman was to keep the
turnstiles clicking.
The Indians set a minor league
attendance record in. 1947 but last
year had trouble at the gate.
Curfman, who gained a lot of
friends during three years at Ida
ho, said he will move here from
Moscow to take the job.
S The Salem high Vikings
open a two-game series with
the Marshfield Pirates tonight.
Salem goes into the game the
under-dog as they meet the
third ranked Pirates.
The Vikings took teA play
ers to Coos Bay this morning
and then will return Sunday.
Players going were Phil Burk
land, Don Crothers, Gordy
Domogalla, Wayne Ericksen,
Jim Knapp, Tom Pickens,
Larry Springer, Herb Triplctt,
and Bob Wulf.
M;.r;;hfield has rolled to 12
wins against four losses while
Salem has an eight-four mark,
with all four losses going to
high ranked teams. They have
lost to Eugene, Corvallis, Mil
waukie, and Roosevelt of Port
land. Lineups Familiar
Coach Harold Hauk, assist
ed by Lee Gustafson, probably
will start Ericksen and Pickens
at the forwards, Wulf at center,
and Knapp and Domogalla at
the guards.
The Pirates probably will
use Steve Bigelow and Sandy
Fraser at the two forward posi
tions, Wayne Young at center,
and Bob Ayre and Ron Jones
at the guards. Marshfield, a
consistant state title threat,- is
the defending champions but
they have lost all their starters
from last year.
Marshfield rolled to a 67-52
win over Corvallis while the
Vikings were beaten 52-38 by
me same Spartans. Marshfield
topped Eugene 72-61 while Eu
gene beat the Vikings 63-52 a
week ago. The Pirates split a
series with Grants Pass, a team
aaiem plays next week-end. .

When Salem High played at Eugene last Friday, Albany was
waiting for Eugene to show up there, according to schedule. It
