Challenge
Two-time champion Lapwai faces
a serious threat if it is to again
capture the Klamath Reservation
All-Indian Invitational Basketball
Tournament which opens Wednes
day afternoon at Lhiloquin. Tour
ney action will continue through
the championship game Saturday
evening.
The defending champions from
Lapwai are again ranked as one
of the pre-tourney favorites, but
the Idaho team must get over such
talented entries as Lodge Grass,
Montana; Toppenish, Washington;
Fort Yates, North Dakota and the
San Francisco Relocation Center.
Lodge Grass is expected to sup
ply the Lapwais with all they can
handle when and if the two meet
in one of Friday's semifinal games.
The Montana tribe captured the
All-Indian National Tournament
held this past week in Toppenish.
,Neah Bay, another local tourna-
, HEKNIfc SALAWAY
. . , holds tourney record
ment entry placed third. Toppenish
fourth and Lapwai fifth.
The Lodge Grass team will be
sparked by Willis Medicine Horse,
last year's outstanding player of
the tournament and a new star
just out of high school Larry Pret-
ty Weasel. Pretty Weasel is re
garded by many as the finest bas
ketball prospect to come out of a
Montana high school in several
years.
Fort Washakie, Wyoming, will
have one of the invitational tour
nament's top stars on hand in the
person of Bernie Salaway. In last
year's tournament the Fort Wash
akie eager scorer1 31 points which
is the tourney's single game scor
ing record. Salaway was also a
member of the 1957 all-star team
selected at the close of the in
vitational meet.

Chiloquin Thunderbirds meeting
Reno in the first of 18 games to
be played. Neah Bay faces Fort
. Bidwell in the second afternoon
game. Wednesday night's action
finds Fort Yates playing Toppen
ish and San Francisco meeting
Harm Springs.
In other first round games sched
uled Thursday. Fort Washakie
meets the Chiloquin-Reno winner
and Browning tangles with tne
winner of the Neah Bay-Fort Bid
veil clash in the afternoon action.
Thursday night's slate finds Lodge
Grass and Lapwai making their
first tourney bids against the win
ners of the Fort Yates-Toppenish
and San Francisco-Warm Springs

Milwaukee Favored
To Defend ML Crown
BRADENTON, Fla. (UP)-The
Milwaukee Brave? appear to have
what it takes to win the National
League pennant again.
They have the pitching and the
power the combination which
in 1957 carried them to the
world's championship., They seem
to have the right balance of vet
erans and youngsters, and unlike
so many championship clubs, they
didn't stand pat during the off
season. The Braves made a deal with
the Cubs, which most other man
agers called "a steal," and Man
ager Fred Haney believes it will
improve the club.
While refusing to come right out
and predict a pennant, Haney
calls his pitching depth the "best
in the league" and claims such
stars as Hank Aaron, Eddie Ma-
Ford Victor
On Fine Shot
PENSACOLA, Fla. (UP) The
most sensational key shot so far
in the winter golf tour a 54
foot hole-out blow from just off
the green on the last hole was
worth the $2,000 first prize to
Doug Ford in the $15,000 Pensa
cola Open golf tournament.
Ford, the Masters champion
from M a h o p a c N.Y.. came
through with the payoff stroke
Sunday for a birdie three on the
18th. a 73 for the last round, and
a 278 for the tournament.
At the time of the shot Ford
was in a tie wl n Ken venturi
of San Francisco.
Venturi ended in a tie at sec
ond place with Art Wall Jr., of
Pocono Manor, Pa., who came
from behind on a 69.
Jefferson Leads
B All-Star Vote
PENDLETON I Jefferson
High School, which wound up in
second place, dominated the all-
star team chosen by sports writers
and broadcasters at the en of the
class B tournament Saturday
night.
Phil Hochspeier and Al Nyman
of Jefferson were joined on the
first team by Greg Moore, Star
of the Sea; Stan Williams, Sisters;
and Norm Evans, Stanfield.
The second team: Crcighton
Kooch, Enterprise; Gordon Mou-
ser. Sisters; Jim Weikel, Harris-
burg; Jim Hiestand, Star of the
Sea: and LeRoy Noffsinger, Yon-
calla.
Enterprise, winner of the con
solation title, received the sports

right, McCutcheon presents the OCC championship trophy
to OTI student body president Don Sands. Carl Cluff, Ore
gon Journal sporrs writer who was the evening's guest
speaker, praised the Owls, who picked up individual tro
phies from the school for their winning season, and coach
Wally Palmberg.
thews and Wes Covington "have
yet to reach their potential."
RIGHT FIELD DOUBTFUL
The only position on the club
which isn't set is right field. With
Bill Bruton on the doubtful list
because of knee trouble, Aaron
will shift to center. Covington will
play left.
It might be we will have to
make a deal," Haney says, "but
you know not many teams want
to trade with the club on top.
As matters stand now. Bob
Hazle, who came up to the club
last season when Bruton was hurt
and hit .403 in 41 games with the
Braves, has the inside track for
the third outfield berth. John De
merit, the former Wisconsin star
for whom the Braves paid a $V5,
000 bonus, is getting a good look.
But on' the basis- of the .147 he
hit in 33 games with the team
last season, it looks like he will
be sent out for experience.
Ray Shearer who hit .316 at
Wichita last season, also is gel
ting a shot at the job and the vet
eran Andy Pafko will be around
for utility duty.
Haney may platoon first base
this year, using Joe Adcock when
a left-hander pitches against the
Braves and the better-fielding
Frank Torre when a rightie goes
against them. There are those
who think Torre can beat Adcock
out of the job, making Big Joe
available in a deal for an out
fielder. INFIELD ALL SET
The rest of the infield will have
veteran Red Schoendiest at sec
ond, Johnny Logan at short and
Mathews at third. The Braves
started to click last season when
they acquired Schoendicnst on
June 15.
It's when the talk turns to pitch
ing that Haney really beams.
"I've got eight starters," he
claims, listing Lew Burdette, Bob
Buhl and Warren Spahn, as the
top three men.
Back of them he has Bob Rush,
the key player in that Cubs deal;
Juan Pizarro, the southpaw la
belled as "a sure star"; Gene
Conley, whose 9-9 record was dis
appointing last year; Bob Trow
bridge, who had seven victories
last year: and Humberto Robin
son, an 18-game winner with To
ronto last year.
For relief there will be Ernie
Johnson, one of the ace bullpen
men in the league, and young Don
McMahon, who showed in the
World Series that he could really
fire that ball. Other relief possi
bilities include Don Kaiser, ob
tained from the Cubs with Rush,
and Joey Jay, back for another
trial after winning 17 at Wichita.
The catching is all set with Del
Lrandall, Del Rice and Carl Sa-
watski. Bob Taylor probably will
be sent out for the season.
All in all, the Braves' outlook
is a most hopeful one.

The mishap occurred with only

won 9 of his last 11, the final
two by kayos over ex-welter king
Tony DeMarco.
This is their third clash. They
fought twice in 1955, Akins took
the first by split decision while
Logart won the second by a com-
lortable margin.
