gTE&DB ATT WHILE Klamath Downs Nevberg Yith 60-57 Score; To Face Coos Bay Tonight By HALE SCARBROUGH McARTHUR COURT, Eugene, March 15 For the third night in a row the Klamath Pe'inni had a rough time ot it. But if the pressure was bad those three nights it I be ter rifc whn the Klamath boys meet the Marshfield Pirates for the state basketball diadem twW-t Mar hfield, a dark-horse outfit coached by Bill Borcher, has come up with a well- toelancAi. si-ooth-working attock for the biggest surprise of the tournament. last r.ia it the Pelicans were pushed to the limit to beat Newberg another surprise rackaKe-6i to 87. The Klamath boys were calling themselves lucky when that one was lover Newberg was primed by couple of forwards, Elmer Speigel and Don Hoy. who scored 19 nd : M intnespectively, ind were still trying to ram home some more baskets Vhen the ""rhe'TiMrs lumped off to an early lead in the first quarter, putting the Pels seven notches down 4.ll before Cap" LeRov Coleman and the rest of the Klamathites really got into the gam? but Coleman, Joe Zarosinski and Clarence Bussman pulled out to trail by just two points, 12"1bngnethedset,hde nYohen the Pels were still looking at the game from the short end Coach Wavne ScoU sent in his second string shock troops and Bob Redkey lqoped in a long r'io h Pelicans a brief lead for the ferst time in the game. 8 n .VatHe oi I free throws tha bulge came and went several times before Don Cessnun was fouled by Hart Newton and his two foul shot ringers put Klamath into the lead for the half. 25"Don Hov evened the count at 25-all to open the third period, but Harley i Gras. centerfc the TtrerS went haywire and committed four straight fouls which resulted in three K amath points. The PelicaT lead wX. never topped again, although the Newberg marksmen. Speidel and Hoy. Jtaeed a two-man rally in the fourth period that had the large Pelican roo ing section or .its feet LeRov Coleman was hot in the third period, pushing in four consecutive buckets m Just outsldethe key ci-cle All in all. the Pels scored 23 points that session, and were outclassing Newberg in every department of the game. n-l .n.mn. mnniMtl for the l lie auAiM . . - Pel backers came midway of tne fourth when Hoy got a basket and two free throws to make the score read 56 for Klamath, 50 for Newberg. Speidel counted next, Joe Zarosinski rammed in a foul shot for Klamath, then Speidel again and then a long bullseye by Hoy. That sliced the Klamath lead to just two points, 57-55, and the Newberg assault faded. With little over a minute to play, Klamath got a tipoff and went into a whirl that eventually net ted three points. Charles Ferrell sank a long heave for the Tigers just at the final gun and the score was Klamath 60. Newberg 57 The win put the Pels in the finals, to meet the Marshfield ' Pirates tonight at 8:45. Marsh field dumped Hood River 45 to 43 in another spine-tingler to make the finals, but almost any of the 6000 spectators who saw - last night's games on McArthur court will agree that is not the spunky outfit Newberg was. The " Pirates, although balanced, do not boast of a specific scoring star to compare with Speidel and Hoy of Newberg or Cole- ' nan of Klamath. By last night's 60 points, the Pelicans are almost assured of breaking two state tourney records. They have 184 points in three games. And the mark is 198 in four, set by North Bend in 1942. North Bend's averau that vear of 49.5 per game will go Dy me ooara asj toon as tne feis ring up ia points tonight. It should be done in me Iirsi quarter. EUGENE, March 15 WO Marshfield had to resort to late stalling tactics to gain its vic ; tory over Hood River. The Coos Bay entry trailed 7-6 at the end of the first quarter, was ahead 24-21 at the half and wound up th third period all even, Al-At From then on it was close un til Don Bruce of Marshfield con verted a foul toss with 1:03 min utes to go that gave Marshfield a 45-41 lead. They went into the stall then, but big Lloyd Buettgenbach, Hood River center who was a standout through the game, 'scored aeain to cut the margin ' to two points with 35 seconds re maining. Marshfield kept tne ball the rest of the way. The 6 foot 3 Buettgenbach who weighs 190 pounds, tallied 2 points. Bill O'Neal sparked . Marshfield in the early minutes and Bruce provided the punch in the last half. Bruce scored 14 points. Both teams showed nervous- : ness at the foul line, where the ' game was won. Each had 18 ' field goals, and Marshfield made 9 free throws to Hood River's 7. Marshfield, however, missed 14 other tries and Hood River, 12. Klamath Falls goes into the final with a tourney record of 61 points a game. Marshfield, . despite last night's comparative ly low score, has averaged 56 in its three tilts. Marshfield holds the defensive, allowing oppo nents an average of 39 to Klam ath Falls' 55.
