Buffaloes Win First Two Games

happy with the referees calls,
hopelessly arguing with them

Opening their season with a
pair of wins, the upcoming
league play for the Madras White
Buffaloes seems to be looking in
their direction.
In their first game, the
Buffaloes handed Wahtonka a
defeat of 82-77. Time after time,
Wahtonka rallied but failed to
keep up the momentum. Wahton

their baskets while Wahtonka hit
42 per cent. Good defensive
playing slowed down Wahtonka
and prevented them from scor
ing. Junior Ron Wilson pulled
down twelve rebounds despite
being one of the shorter players.
Rodney Mitchell and Ron
Wilson led the way in the scoring
field. Rodney was hitting fairly
accurate from the outside, scor
ing 24 points. Rodney shot 100 per
cent from the free throw line,
hitting four out of four to have a
total of 28 points against Wahton
ka. Ron Wilson ended the game
with 21 points.
The action between the
White Buffaloes and Henley Hor
nets was close clear up to third
quarter. Using zone defense in
the second half proved to be
effective as the Buffaloes won
their second game, 71-58. Mad
ras’ defense held Skip Barney at
only ten points before he fouled
out. Without Skip, the Henley
offense was limited and gave
Ron Wilson the chance to drive in
and score time after time. Wilson
ended the game with 21 points. A
few steals by Rodney was ano
ther factor for the win. Rodney
ended the game with 18 points
and Jim Souers had 17.
Henley will have another
chance at Madras again, when
Madras hosts their annual invi-'

end, Dec. 15 & 16. Starting at 7
p.m., John Day will go against
Burns and the second game
starts at 9.

Making the presentation was
Dennis Williams, the Secretary-
Treasurer for the
Jefferson
County Bowling Association. Wil
liams said that there are only
three sanctioned 300 games ac
complished here in Jefferson
County. The first was by Vernon
Tanewasha earlier in the year,
shortly after that John Wright
got his 300 game. At the begin
ning of this year’s league play
Dick rolled his perfect game. All
three games have come in the
Pelton Lanes according to pro
prietor Connie Allen.
All three who have rolled a
300 game are in the Warm
Springs Bowling League which is
held each Wednesday night and
they are all on different teams
and from time to time it appears
On the night of December 6,
Dick Souers was presented with
a 300 bowling game diamond ring
and a 300 game patch for his
achievement on the night of
September 27 when he rolled a
perfect 300 game at the Pelton
Lanes..

that either one could repeat with
another 300 game as they come
ever-so-close.
There are several bowlers in
the league that are capable of
rolling a 300 game and have
come Close in the past. It is very
hard to concentrate on twelve
consecutive strikes in a row.
Muskopf stated earlier in the
year that he has been bowling for
quite some time but has yet to
roll a 300 game. I’ve played golf
for a short time and made a hole
in one but I have never gotten a
300 bowling game yet, he added.
In any event Souers has
joined the “Elite” in the bowling
world and who knows who might
be next. Spilyay is not bowling
but who knows he could come in
and roll a perfect 300 game on his
first attempt.
Boxers Bring
Homo Championships
Two montns of extensive
training and vigorous work-outs
have paid off for the Warm
Springs Boxing Club when tjiey
traveled to Longview, Wash., for
the novice and . sub-novice
championship tournament, Dec.
2 & 3. Of the eleven contending
from Warm Springs, the local
team secured five championship
titles, the team championship,
and the team sportsmanship
honors.
Making his very first
appearance in boxing competi
tion, Gale Lawrence, Jr., boxing
in the 165 lb. class, was Warm
Springs’ biggest victor, winning
by a third-round technical knock
out. According to boxing coach,
Fabian Sutteriee, Gale’s win
“hyped up” the other boys and
gave them the confidence and
encouragem ent to win. “ It
(Gale’s win) lifted them up and
put them in the right mood to
box, ’ ’ said Sutteriee.
Lucas Ike, 145 lb., had a
close fight which he lost by a split
decision. This was Lucas’ first
bout in the ring, and according to
Fabian, he threw some illegal
punches. Points are deducted for
illegal punches so after the
match was over Lucas had points
deducted and came out behind.
Mike Berry weighed in at 165
pounds before his fight, but was
pushed up into the 175 lb. class
because there was no one in his
class to fight. The larger oppo
nent won over Berry with a
technical knockout. Sutteriee
said he and the other coaches
saw | Berry hit with an illegal
punch which took him down. The
referee failed to see the illegal
punch and although Berry was
ready and willing to finish the
fight, the referee ended the
match.
Sterling Holiday, 90 lbs., lost
his fight because of hair falling in
his face. “Otherwise he would’ve
won,” said Sutteriee.
The other boxers declared
champions from Warm Springs
were: Kevin Blueback, 80 lbs.;
Russell Tufti, 90 lbs.; Sheldon
Sutteriee, 90lbs.; and Joel Craig,
80 lbs. They received medallions
as prizes.
Coach Sutteriee made note
that this was all of his boxers
very first appearance in the ring,
with the exception of two. Fabian
considers all of his boxers win
ners of the Longview tourney
although not all of them came
home with medallions.
The other coaches and jud
ges praised the Warm Springs
boxers because they had never
seen Warm Springs in such fine
physical condition before. The
judges and coaches thought our
team was going to be easy, said
the coach.
The boxers were competing
against eleven other teams and
about 75 other boxers, according
to Sutteriee.
With only one boxing tourna
ment this season, Fabian al
ready has high hopes of taking
some boxers to the Nationals. He
feels he has a couple of boxers
who have the potential of being
National champions, with more
work-outs and conditioning.
“We’re going to let people know
we’re around,” said the coach.
The boxing club will be idle
through December, but they are
looking forward to more action
next month. On January 6 & 7,
the boys will be going over to
Eugene for another Open tourna
ment. On January 13 & 14, it will
be Longview again, where Sut
teriee says some of the boys who
lost will be looking for a re
match. Then on January 20, the
boys are hoping to host their own
tournament at the Community
Center.
