SALEM, Ore., March 24. (AP)
Only three schools were represented
on the all-state basketball team vot
ed by coaches, officials and news
paper men at the 15th annual state
high school hoop tournament here
tonight Astoria, The Dalles and Sll
verton. Klamath Falls, who played
with Astoria for the state champion
ship tonight, failed to place any on
Uhe first team, due, It was declared,
to more toam work on the part of the
squad. ' '
Ted Sarpola and Robert Anet were
chosen for the forward and guard
positions from the Astoria quintet,
Snrpola receiving the highest vote
of any players named. Ernest Miles
of Tho Dalles received the next high-1
est vote for guard position. Wayne
Scott, a member of the 1933 all-state
team, repeated for the forward po
sition, although the vote waa close.
The choice for center position was
not unanimous, but Douglas Both
well was given the largest vote. He
la a member of the upper Columbia
river aggregation which took fourth
position In the tourney.
The second team vote was more
scattered, although Leland Canessa
of Astoria rated the highest vote and
won a berth at forward with Clyde
Dickinson of Franklin high school of
Portland. Derrlll Miller of Klamath
Falls was chosen center, while D.
Wright of Eugene and B. Dick of
The Dalles were ohosen for the guard
positions.
The all-stars were named for the
positions In which they played, which
of necessity eliminated several ood
men who would have been named In
other positions. Thirty votes were
oast for the players. Consideration
was given to scoring, floor work and
general ability on offensive and de
fensive playing.
Many players wore given .honorable
mention, chief among which were
Dean Galloway of Pendleton and
Egelhoff of Klamath Falls, forwards;
Jewell of Franklin, William O'Don
nell, Columbia, and Danner of Eu
gene, centers: and Harold Wright of
Astoria, Grozaninl and Scrogglns of
Klamath Falls and Cast le man of Columbia.
forwarded to the national associa
tion, little hope was expressed In the
mooting that a change would be made.
The Junior baseball teams formerly
were selected by high schools and
counties. The new ruling provides
for one team for each American Le
gion post, It was said, and the argu
ment was advanced that the larger
cities would thus receive an over
whelming advantage by reason of a
multitude of candidates for the teams.
