They walked off the court for tlie intermission rest a dejected group of lads. But they came out with fangs bared in the second half and began to work mora like tliey were capable of working.

Hill hit one free tlirow to tie tlie game for tlie first time at 31-31 and his second shot gave tlie Huskies their first lead at 32-31 with two minutes gone in the fourth period. They had cut the margin to 31-30 by tlie end of the thud frame. Smith then hit on a fielder for a 34-31 lead but the Pirates fought back. But Merrill's press, which the Huskies had begun midway through the third period, was bothering the Pirates. The Pi rales then began to set up the blind screens and came back to nly to see that effort fade into lefeat when Cascade Locks' Ron Jensen hit on a pair of charity losses with 11 seconds left to give tlie Pirates a 48-47 win over the Huskies. It was a heartbreaking loss for the Huskies who had fought back so valiantly from a first half def. icit of nine points and had taken he lead. But starting guard Bob Moore fouled out and was re placed by sophomore M a r 1 i n Barnes. Barnes was the victim of a blind screen and he fouled Jen sen coming down court at the mid-court line. Jensen, who had twice only minutes earlier missed on one-and one-shot situations made good on both this time for the victory. The game was far from being one of Merrill's better games of the Season.

Hill managed to remain in the came hut Conner finally fouled out. The Huskies were whistled down 25 1 times and Cascade Locks 22 times. Coach Jerry Grocneveld's learn was extremely cold in the first period. The Huskies didn't make a basket until there were 2:33 left in the quarter when Smith popped one from tlie top of tlie key. The Pirates had jumped to a 9-2 lead when Smith connected. He and Hill combined to pull the Huskies to within one at the pe riod, 9-8. - Merrill opened up the second period with two quick points when Moore took the tip off and was all alone.

But Moore dropped in a long jump shot with 2:36 left and was fouled after the shot. He had two shots but hit only the first one to tie the game at 43-43. Smith and Moore were doing a' beautiful defensive job out front by slapping the ball away from tlie Pirate guards and stealing it.
