Eastern Oregon saved its big
bombs for the second half last night
to keep, intact Us favorites' position
In the Oregon Collegiate Confer
ence with a league-opening 92-78
win over the spunky Owls of Ore
gon Tech.
The Mountaineers needed plenty
of artillery and probably will
again tonight when the two teams
meet in a rematch at 8 o'clock
on Hilltop Court because the
Owls fashioned a 42-33 halftime
lead last night and, until the fourth
quarter, were still very much in the
ball game, ;
But in the fateful fourth the
sharpshooters from La Grande, de
fending OCC champions, peppered
the basket for 34 points to pull
away from the Techs with 14
points to spare.
TURNING POINT

Fred Wampler Grabs
Top Check in Open
By JACK STEVENSON
LOS ANGELES W The differ
ence between winning the national
intercollegiate golf title and the
Los Angeles Open is quite simple,
says the fellow who has won both.
"There was a $4,000 check here."
explained youthful-looking Fred
Wampler of Indianapolis, who yes
terday steadied a shaky game in
the rain and held otf several chal
lengers to win the $20,000 open by
a stroke. He had 281 for the 72
holes.
FIRST WIN
Wampler, 30, a 150-pounder
those build and style are reminis
cent of Ben Hogan, won the NCAA
tille in 1950 as a senior at Purdue
after three times taking the Big
Ten crown.
Although he turned pro that same
year, this was his first tournament
win, and now he heads for Bing
Crosby's pro-amateur at Pebble
Beach". Calif., with a lot of added
confidence as well as greenbacks.
Wampler came up to the 17th
hole after three straight bogeys
and needed even par to beat the
veteran Chick Hnrbert, who came
in earlier with a 282 after finish
ing with a pair of birdies. He
got his pars and Just missed birdies
on both holes to finish with a 75
for the day.
La Canada, plnyinpr with Wampler,
had a birdie on the final hole to
finish with a 1-undcr-par 70 and
tie Harbert.
Third place cuts of $1,075 went
to four players with 283 Ed Oliver
Palm Springs, Calif.: Fred Hawk
Ins, El Paso: Bud Holscher, Santa
Monica, Calif.; and the Australian
Peter Thomson, runner-up to Hogan
in the British Open last summer.
Thomson had a 66 yesterday, the
best of the day.
' Amateur honors, also at 283,
went to Bruce Cudd, University of
Portland Junior, who fired a 67 for
his best tournament record,
BEAT PAR
Those were the only fellows to
beat par 71 for the four rounds
at Fox Hills Country Club, a 7,000
yard course.
At 284 and getting $675 were such
veterans as Lew Worsham, E. J.
Harrison, Julius Boros and Eric
Monti. The leader through the first
two rounds. Bill Nary, sagged to
74s the last two days and wound
up at 285 for $500, the same check
received by Smiley Quick.
Among those out of the money
were last year's champion,
Lloyd Mnngrum, who finished with
a 289; Tomy Bolt, champion two
years ago, also with 289; and the

Bet Case
Continues
NEW YORK W Investigation
of the Jack Molinas incident,
which rocked pro basketball,
marked time Tuesday but both po
lice officials and officials of the
National Basketball Assn.- an
nounced steps growing out of the
basketball star's suspension.
Bronx District Atty. George De
Luca said that all phases of Mo
linas' high school and college
basketball career would be investi
gated when the former Columbia
University player comes here from
Fort Wayne in a few days.
NBRA President Maurice Podol
off. who set in motion the Investi
gation leading to Molinas' suspen
sion, announced he plans to hire
a permanent investigator to pre
vent future incidents similar to
the Molinas case.
Molinas. star rookie of the Fort
Wayne Pistons, was suspended
Sunday for betting on his team's
games, even though he Insisted he
did not "shave" points or throw
games but bet instead on his team
to win. Molinas said he placed the
bets by telephone with a man In
New York.
last period tied at 58-all
The Mountaineers did enough
damage in the third period, out-
scoring the Owls, 25-16, to erase the
nine-point deficit at the rest period.
But in the fourth they added in
sult to injury when they totaled 13
points in little more than three
minutes while the Owls were draw
ing a blank as EOC pulled on the
fat side of the score by a 71-58
count.
There was no catching up then,
particularly when the visitors start
ed a stall at the three-minute mark
with a 82-71 lead, although they
broke out of the ball-control style
enough times to add 10 more points.
DIFFERENCE
The big difference after Inter
mission time was forward Larry
Pryse and 6-5 center Bob Adrian
who did little to help the Moun
taineers in the first half or hold
up their glossy reputations.
Adrian was blanked from the
field in the first half and managed
to plunk in one from the charity
stripe. Pryse counted Just once
from the floor in the first 20 min
utes and added a free toss.
Both, however, sat out a good
share of the second quarter when
they were flagged on three person
al fouls in rapid order. But the rest
did them good because Adrian thew
in four field goals and a free throw
in the second half attack; and Ad
rian hit five times from the floor
and nine of nine free throws it
was 10 for 10 for the evening to
end with 22 points, high for the
Mountaineers.
Forward Ken Westenskow and
guard Ted Schadewitz took up the
slack in the first half and kept
pace in the second half. Guard
Gary Burton did his share in the
second-half blitz, too, after a medi
ocre first half. -.
EDGREN SHINES
It was Bob Edgren who steered
the Techs to the sizeable first
half lead with six field goals and
a free throw. He added three and
four in the second half to end with
23 points. Jerry Wyatt kept things
alive in the second naif and end
ed with 9 field goals and 6 free
throws for 24 points.
Both were ahead of Pryse with
22. but the difference was EOC's
all-around scoring ' power. Four of
the Mountaineers besides Pryse
chipped in with two-figure totals.
Westenskow bad 19, Schadewitz 17,
Burton 13 and Adrian 10.
After a couple of early swaps.
Westenskow put EOC ahead at 5-3
early in the game and the Moun
taineers stayed topside until late
in the stanza when Edgren found
center on two straight field goals
to put the Owls ahead 20-18.
The Techs were still ahead, 23-21,
at the end of the first quarter but
trailed 23-25 when Westenskow and
Vance savage strung together two
pointers in that order. But EOC's
lead didn't last long. Gary Dorn,
Tech's speedy vest-pocket guard,
started settting up shots with his
fake-and-pass tactics and Edgren
scored again on a lay-In, Alan Cun
ningham added two, Edgren again
to give the Owls a 31-26 .end.
Wyatt started getting in the act
then after early coldness and it
was 42-33 at the half.
PUFF LEAD
Oretech opened the gap lo 12
points at 48-36 early in the. third
period before the Mountain Boys
went to work. Just past the midway
point in the third quarter Adrian
tipped one in and Schadewitz add
ed a counter to tie the score at
50-all. It was 53-50 EOC when
Schadewitz added a free throw and
Adrian bullied his big bulk into the
rebound traffic for another tip-in.
Wyatt and Edgren gave the Owls
a last brief lead at 57-56 on two
quick field goals late in the third
quarter. But when Burton handed
the lead back to the La Grande
five at 58-57, it was all over but
the Tech fans' moaning although
Wyatt sent the game into the fourth
quarter knotted at 58-all with a
free throw.
But in Jig-time the Mountaineers
had a 13-point bulge and the Owls
never came close to catching up.
Eastern Oregon's shooting per
centage was .390; Tech hit for a
.322 average.
"Poor Al has a new ball, special
shoes, special pants, a new shirt
and can't find a thing to blame
for his poor score!"

Brown Sees
High Score
LOS ANGELES (Al The Cleve
land Browns'- head man, Paul
Brown, says he expects both
teams to score at least three
touchdowns Sunday In the annual
All-Pro Bowl lootball game in Me
morial Coliseum, and that a field
goal may decide the issue.
Brown lias the best field goal
kicker in the business, Lou (The
Toe) Groza. The Los Angeles
Rams remember distinctly that lie
beat them In the waning seconds of
the playoff game for the world title
in Cleveland, 30-28.
Brown sold he is well pleased
the wnv things are going with
his collection of Eastern Confer
ence stars, who will oppose the
Western Conference outfit coached
by Buddy Parker of the world
champion Detroit Lions.
Brown has been working his
squad twice a day, while Parker
has been content to operate only
once daily. The Eastern squad will
continue right un through a Satur
day morning workout, but Parker
said he would linish Friday. .
Ben Hogan
Scores Again
ROCHESTER, N. Y. W-Tho
honors keep piling up for Ben
Hogan lor his unprecedented sweep
of the U. S. and British Open
championships and the. Augusta
Masters tournament in 1953.
Hogan, named as the Male Ath
lete of the Year in the Associated
Press poll last week, yesterduy
won the Ray Hickok $10,000 belt
as the '-'Professional Athlete of the
Year."
In addition, the Metropolitan
Golf Writers announced iu New
York that a new golf trophy, to
be known as the Ben Hogan Award,
would bo given for the first time
Jan. 21 to "a person who has over
come a handicap in order to play
golf and thus has proved an in
spiration to others."
Hogan was so seriously injured
In a 1949 automobile accident that
for a time his lite was feared for.
He recovered and amazed doctors
by insisting on playing golf again.
His tremendous sweep last year
