Four West Oregon
Squads Remain In
Marshfield Meets Corvallis In Semi - Final
EUOENE, March IB (fly-Four Western Oregon teams will collide tonight In the seml-flnnls of the
KnntiHl rlasa A state high school basketball tournament. The pairings send St. Helens against Salem and
Marshfield, the defending champions, against Corvallis.
In contrast with previous years Eastern and Southern Oregon tennis were out of the running. In fact
only one team from east of the Cascades Klamath Falls of Southern Oregon was around, even for
play In the consolation bracket.
Klamath Falls meets Springfield and New berg plays Jefferson of Portland in the consolation series
leading up to fifth place.
Three of the four winners In the title division yesterday had to stage late rallies to survive. St, Helens
broke a 30-30 deadlock at the end of the third quarter to down Tigard. 47-38.
Marshfield came from behind In the second half to defeat Gresham. 42-30. Corvallis came from be
hind In the second half to nose
out Washington of Portland, 32-
30.
Only Salem's rugged Vikings,
now the tourney favorite, had it
easv. They downed Astoria, M-37.
It wasn't too easy at that, lor As
toria scrambled hard, but the Vik
ings had too much power In the
closing periods.
St. Helen's winning rush in the
fourth ouarter produced 17 points
with Center Maynard Serbousek
the big gun. He was aided consid
erably by Don Neveau who dropped
In eight field goals through the
game to lead scorers with 16 points.
Tigard's Toby Lewis also racked
up 16 to remain the tourney's top
scorer a total of 42 in the two
games he has played. He will get
chance to add more In an after
noon game against Astoria. The
winner tomorrow will' play lor
fourth place against the victor of
a Gresham-Washlngton game.
TRAILED AT HALF
Marshfield trailed Gresham at
the half, 15-13, but the champions'
troubles with the Gresham tone
defense eased as Guard Ken Hunt
began hitting long shots In the
second half. Hunt totaled seven
lield goals for 14 points.
Washington held a 20-13 lead
over Corvallis at the half. The
Portlanders" trouble was with Cen
ter Bob Edwards, 6-foot 6-tnch
Corvallis star, who tallied 12 of his
team's first-half points. Before It
was over Edwards had 19 points,
and four Washington players had
fouled out trying to keep him In
check.
Corvallis pulled up to a 25-24
lead at the end of the third quar
ter and with l's minutes to go
held a 32-30 margin. Each team
had scoring chances In the frantic
finish, but the shots went astray.
Salem and Astoria, who had split
four previous games, played on
even terms for a while, then Salem,
using a shifting lone defense, be
gan to pull In front. At the half
it was 25-19 for the Vikings, and
they never were In danger there
after. PELICAN BOX:

Bill Kelly is the long. tall, grey

Angels, who stepped in a virtual
stranger a year ago and proceeded
to remove himself, and the parent
Chicago Cub front office, from the
spot by winning the Pacific Coast
league pennant and the governor's
cup playoff.
And what has Kelly got to de
fend It?
He's got one of the best outfields
in the league, a veteran infield,
fair catching, questionable pitching
-and hope that the parent Chi
cago Cubs will again donate a few
good players to the cause.
