Meeting one of the northwest's
toughest basketball teams in a
game that bids to be fast, hard-
fought and, whatever else will go
down in the “good cause” book, the
Timber Wolf eagers will tangle
with the famed Portland Bailer­
makers, in Portland, Saturday
night
The game will be played in the
Jefferson High School gymnasium
and will start at 8 p. m.
Of particular significance, the
proceeds will be given over to the
drive in which civilians of the
northwest are participating, to pro­
vide additional athletic equipment ♦
for service men.
Launched less than three weeks
ago, the drive has had big and
enthusiastic response. Already in­
dividuals and agencies throughout
Oregon have contributed heavily in .
either goods or the wherewithal to |
get the athletic goods. And, the ar- I
dor is not diminishing.

Willamette Wins Game
In Late 5 Minute Spurt
Until the last five minutes of
their Monday night game in Salem,
it looked as if the Timber Wolf
division team would grab a win
from the fast University of Wil-
iamette five.
Then Wilamette spurted and
captured one of the closest cage
battles on the schedule, 50-46, from
Lt. Bob Duffey’s players.
At half time the crack division
team led 23-19.
The set-to was one of two played
during the past week, for the Tim­
ber Wolves traveled to Eugene Sat­
urday, only to drop their second
encounter of the season to the

Reason, an Albany sub­

manner:
“In nine-tenths of the stories for
the public print anyone who ever
wore an athletic uniform ha.« been
designated as a star when: (1) he
got killed either in war or in an

words by Knute Rock ne on a home- ,

1925, after Army administered a
27-0 shellacking to the “Fighting

fellows feel bad, but I want you to ;

ever tackle them!”
