St. Helens Meets
Ontario Tonight for
A-2 Basketball Title
Salem U.R) The Lions of St.
Helens and the Tigers of Ontario
meet tonight for Oregon's first
class A-2 high school basketball
championship.
St. Helens and Ontario made
their way through semi-final
round opposition but it was not
an easy chore for Ontario. St
Helens gained the title picture
in comparative ease as the Lions
rolled over Coquille 74-64 yes
terday.
Ontario owed its spot, and a
61-59 win over St. Francis of
Eugene, to a pair of charity
tosses by Jerry Doman when
only seconds remained in an
overtime period.
Win in Overtime
The Tigers took an early 22-9
lead over St. Francis but saw it
dwindle until they were on the
short end of a 28-26 half-time
count. By the end of regulation
playing time it was a 57-57 stand
off. The clubs matched points
until the final seconds when
Doman sank his pair of gifters
for the win.
Stew Robertson garnered 32
to lead the Saints while Earl
Doman checked in with 20, high
for Ontario.
Marlin Marsh contributed 34
points for St. Helens as the
Lions rolled to the 74-64 win
PGA B reaks Rule
For Ike Visit
St. Petersburg, Fla.
-(U.R)
The Professional Golfers Assn.
conceded today that rules are
meant to be broken especially
when a fellow has a date with
President Eisenhower.
The PGA's problem started
when Sammy Snead asked to
start the final round of the
Miami Open March 25 early so
that he can keep a golfing date
in White Sulphur Springs, W.
Va., with the President. It was
quickly pointed out that Snead
would be violating two PGA
rules.
But, on the other hand, PGA
supervisor Ray O'Brien couldn't
see the point of refusing to let
one of its members fraternize
with the President of the United
States. So . . .
O'Brien added the commit
tee's action on such "an unusual
request" would have to be ap
proved at a later date but he
predicted "it should not be much
trouble to get it approved."

Two more favorites bit the
dust today as the surprise
packed NCAA basketball carni
val completed its lineups for
Friday's regional tournaments.
At New York Tuesday night,
Dartmouth turned in a major
upset by whipping West Vir
ginia, 61-59, in overtime on a
long shot by Larry Blades with
three seconds left, and speedy
Connecticut handed one-time
conqueror Manhattan an 74-75
defeat.
In two other first-round tour
ney games at Wichita, Kans., the
favorites came through but
only after bad scares.
Southern Methodist, a heavy
favorite, had to stall out the
final 46 seconds of play to defeat
Texas Tech, 68-67, and tall Okla-
Uhoma City had to rally from a
12-point deficit to score what
only seemed like a comfortable
97 81 decision over Memphis
State.

regionals on Friday:
At Philadelphia: Connecticut
Temple, Dartmouth-Canisius; at
Iowa City: Kentucky-Wayne,

At CcrvaESis March 16-17
By HOWARD APPLEGATE
United Press Sports Writer
Corvallis (U.R) If the West
ern regional NCAA basketball
tournament here lives up to past
performances some 11,000 fans
will get plenty of thrills the
nights of March 16 and 17 at
Gill coliseum.
And with San- Francisco and
UCLA meeting in the first game,
there will be some top-flight
basketball. UCLA was the last
team to beat USF, late in 1945.
Washington in 1953, Cali
fornia in 1954 and San Francisco
last year walked off with the
regional title and a berth in the
NCAA semi-finals. But not with
out plenty of suspense and ac
tion. O'Brien Twins
Remember 1953? That was the
year the O'Brien twins, Johnny
and Eddie, put Seattle U. on
the basketball map. Their long
awaited game with Washington
came off here. But big Bob Hou
bregs and company had tpo much
height and the dream game
turned into .a 90-70 route for
Washington.
The next night the Huskies
were expected to dispose of
Santa Clara easily. It didn't
turn out that way. The most dra
matic moments came near the
end of the third quarter when
Ken Sears of Santa Clara let fly
with a two-hander from the cen
ter line. It went through and
Santa Clara was right in the
ball game. But seconds later,
just as the gun ended the quarter,
Houbregs cast off from behind
the center line. Swish. That
broke the Broncs and Washing
ton went on to win.
Sears figured in the big mo
ment in 1954, too. Santa Clara
was back for another try and
went into the final against South
ern California. The game went
into overtime and with four min
utes left Feerick employed some
strange strategy. Santa Clara,
a point behind, froze the ball
as time ticked off and tension
mounted. The Trojans glued onto
the Broncs like flies. Finally
with about 10 seconds left, the
ball was fed to Sears who made
a drive for the bucket and shot.
He missed and USC had the
ball game. -More
Suspense
Last year provided even more
suspense.
The finale was between San
Francisco and Oregon State a
duel between Bill Russell of the
Dons and Swede Halbrook of
Oregon State, a 7-foot 3-inch
center. With a couple of minutes
to go USF had what seemed to
be a safe lead. But Bill Toole of
OSC twice stole the ball and the

Beavers crept to within one
point.
With seconds to go, OSC got
the ball out of bounds. It was
fed to Ron Robins, the best set
shot the Beavers had. He fired
and missed and San Francisco
had won 57-56 to preserve its
winning streak.
