By RED HURD Oregon Tech's Owls hold hall ownership of the Oregon Colleg iate Conference basketball lead after finishing on top last night in an 82-81 thriller with Eastern Ore gon College on Hilltop Court. Unlike Monday night when the Owls folded in the stretch in a 92-78 loss tp the Mountaineers, the Techs broke on top in the third quarter, had to come from behind once in the fourth to sal vage the squeaky victory. The Mountaineers were daed when It was all over, particularly Ted Schadewitz who poured in 31 points for the OCC favorites and came near pulling the game out of the tire lor the La Grande five. Don Sutphin. still limping on a loo; injured in December, didn't play like a cripple. He canned 22 points and had his long set shots in working order. LONG ONE When Sutphin canned a long one midway in the fourth to put the Owls back in the lead at 71-69, the Owls stayed that way in a hectic drive to the finish line. A minute and a half was left with Tech holding an 82-79 lead when Schadewitz, who was hitting every shot known to cagcdoin, brought his total to 31 with a hook shot. But there were just 30 sec onds left then with the Owls holding a slim one-point lead at 82-81. The stall backfired when a bad pass got away from the Hill toppers and Ken Westenskow took aim with 15 seconds lett from just outside the key. The ball, rimmed the hoop but fell out. Sutphin got a lot of scoring from Bob Edgren and Don Hubble. Both did their share of backboard work and Edgren potted 18, Hub ble 14. Jerry Wyatt, high Monday night with 24, was watched like a shoplifter In a dime store and ended with Just eight points. But his passing and teamwork paid off. 10 THSS The first half was tied 10 times and the Owls didn't find the lead until a minute was left before In termission time when Keith Thompson hooked one in nnd dropped a free throw when he was fouled to put the Techs up by a 44-43 count. Gary Burton tied it at 44 for the Mountain Boys Irom the charity stripe but Hub Die's jump shot put Oretech out in front again and Westenskow's two-pointer sent the teams into the dressing room tied at 46-all. Jerry Overen was a big factor in Tech's staying ahead in the third quarter that ended 63-61. The ex-Klamath Falls and Southern Oregon eager dumped in counters three times to widen the gap to four and five points when EOC started to get close. EOC lost a lot of rebound strength when 6-5 Bob Adrian fouled out early in the lourth period. Oregon Tech lost Gary Dorn In the first when the whizz boy guard was called on four fouls: Coach Skeet O'Connell pulled him In favor of Alan Cun ningham and the Echo lad never re-entered the game. BLOW BY BLOW Here's a blow-by-blow account of the last few riotous minutes that had the Jans standing most of the way: 'After Sutphin's long shot put the Owls ahead 71-69, Larry Pryse's free throw closed It to 70-71; Cun ningham threw one in but Schndcwitz closed it to 71-73 with a gift toss; Sutphin again put the Owls tip four points at 75-71: Vance Savage on two free throws closed It to two points but Edgren on a follow shot restored the four point cushion at 77-73: Hubble made things look good at six points (79-73) with a hook shot; then the pesky Schadewitz hit again and it was 79-75 with two and a half minutes left and the Owls tried the stall; but Schade witz closed it to 77-79 and Sut phin followed with a free throw; Wyatt hit and Savage put the vis itors back in the game with two mole from the gift line to narrow the count to 79-82. Then came Schadewitz last big shot and Westenskow's rimmer that fell the right way for Oregon recn. The Owls have a busv schedule ahead. They travel to Monmouth for a pair with Oregon College Friday and Saturday nights, return home for a Monday-Tues day king's-X series with Southern Oregon College, stay home to host the Wolves of Monmouth again next Friday and Saturday in an other OCC scries.

The profit compared unfavorab ly with 1952 's margin of $5,308, but Peak explained that lowering oi tickets sales and one less home game (the season-opening Grant game was on the road In 1953 accounted for the difference.
