Old Duffers Come Home With First “C’mon, Mervin, he can’t see with those knee-hi’s on!” cheered a fan at the boxing tournament January 28. Mervin (left) won his bout, but that probably had little to do with the fact that his opponent wore nylon knee-hi’s over his head to keep his hair in place.

Unanimous Decision Forfeit Warm Springs was well rep resented at Tahola, Washington on January 28 and 29 as the Old Magpies (better known as the Old Duffers) walked away with the first place trophy. In their first game, the Old Duffers walked all over a team from Lummi, Washington. Action in the second game proved to be quite a contest for the Duffers. Beating the Umatil-. la Old Bucks by just one point 72-71 put them into the cham pionship game against Corwin Enterprises. After four quarters of play against Corwin, the score was tied. So the game was sent into overtime*. Three minutes of play ing was plenty of time for the Old Duffers to down Corwin Enterprises by four points, 80-76. All-Stars for the two day tournament from Warm Springs were Delano “Satch” Miller and Ricky Minthorn. Buff Girls Still Going Strong With determination and a lot of physical work, the Buff girls aren’t letting anyone get in their way. The girls added two more wins to their 10-3 record bring ing it to a total of 12-3. In basketball action held on January 27 against Grant Union, the girls just wiped them out.

Grant Union: 1 7 6 13-29 Madras: 9 13 16 8-46 Although Madras didn’t have a repeat performance of the Grant Union game, the girls did manage to come through with another victory. From the very start of the game Mina Shike, Kimiko Dan- zuka and Mary Nelson all got into foul trouble and had to sit« out most of the game. Mary Nelson was put back into the game in the fourth’‘quarter. Although she only got to play a total of about one quarter, she still came out top scorer for the Buffs with fifteen points. In fourth-quarter play the girls biggest lead over Mac-Hi was only by four points. Assis tant coach Bud Raisio com mended Joanie Hatfield and Marci Phillips for their playing in the fourth quarter.

Boys White Buffs Tied For Second Sporting a tie for second place at the present time the “White Buffs” are trying to become bullish in the Greater Oregon basketball league, but according to Coach Blincoe, “We still have a long way to go, and will take our games one at a time.” For the remainder of the regular season the Buffs have 3 home games and 4 on the road. “The boys are determined and willing to play but these long road trips take a lot out of the boys,” said blincoe. The following is a recap of their conference games starting with the first road trip to Mac Hi where the Buffs fell 73-66. Mac. Hi in field goals shot 56 per cent and were 70 per cent at the charity strip. Madras fell behind early in the game and was unable to overtake the host team. MADRAS 13 18 10 25 - 66 MAC-HI 18 20 17 18 - 73 On the following night Mad ras traveled to Wahtonka. In that clash the Buffs had another slow start and had to play catch-up ball to win the game late in thè fourth quarter to bring their record to 1-1. MADRAS 8 19 18 19-64 WAHTONKA 20 16 10 12-58 On the following week Mad ras hosted the Burns Highland ers for their first home en counter. This was a close ball game as Madras built a sizeable lead in the first half to hold off a fourth quarter surge by Burns for the win. MADRAS 16 19 15 19-69 BURNS 14 12 16 21-63 The next night the Buffs traveled to Grant Union. That night the Buffs just couldn’t put anything together and dropped the contest which brought their standing to a 2-2 mark. The prospectors shot well both in the field and at the free throw line and also got their share of rebounds. No box scores available for this game. The following weekend Vale invaded Madras only to have their winning streak end as the Buffs really put things together »nd stampeded to a 87-67 vic tory. The Buffs shot well both from the field and the free throw line and pulled down the most rebounds. The Buffs threw a tight defense to the Vikings of Vale and after leading 70-46 in the fourth quarter, Blincoe emptied the bench of reserves to play the remainder of the game. MADRAS 19 29 22 17 - 87 VALE 11 21 14 21 - 67 Then Nyssa made their ap pearance and a bid to spoil the White Buffaloes run for the title. But the Buffs edged them 65 to 52. According to Blincoe, the Buffs got off to a cold start and couldn’t generate any kind of drive throughout the earlier part of the game. This was a hard played game and it wasn’t until the fourth quarter the game was won. MADRAS 9 18 15 23-65 NYSSA 10 16 8 18-52 In their last outing the Buffs came even closer to league leading Vale, but this was with a slim victory over a fast im proving Cowboy team of Crook County. The Buffaloes built a com fortable lead earlier in the game, as the Cowboys made their bid in the final quarter but time was a big factor as it ran out giving the Buffaloes a close 62-55 win and up their league standings and a tie for second place with Mac-Hi 5-2.. Feb. 10th was the next league game at Prineville. On the 17-18th they will host Wah tonka and Mac-Hi respectively, and then wind up conference play at Nyssa and Vale March 3, 4th.
