First Buskelhull Week's S eel Revenge It was a coincidentally fortunate week for the Westerners. Not only was the op- ponent traditional District rival Pasadena College for Cal Western's first Basketball Week, but also it had been Pasadena who had beaten CWU the previous season and gained a berth in the NAIA national tournament in Kansas City. Cal Western cagers trailed the Cru- saders at half-time, but coach Kloppen- burg fired up his team in the dressing room and they came back to overtake Pasadena. With five minutes left the Westerners had three starters out on foulsg but the reserves more than made up the diH'erence as the home team triumphed, 93-89.
