Three games will be played by
northern division basketball teams
this week-end. Washington State
and Idaho play at Pullman tonight
and tomorrow night the Cougars
and Vandals tangle at Moscow. In
the week’s other tussle, Oregon’s
embattled Webfoots face the equal
ly embattled Beavers of Oregon
State at Corvallis tomorrow.
Tonight's Washington State
Idaho tilt is a toss-up. Last week
the Vandals upset a favored
Cougar quintet, 33 to 30, in a nip
and tuck fight.
As the teams go into the final
half of their schedules, Washington
apparently has the crown sewed
up. Even should one of the other
teams win all of its remaining
games the Huskies would need to
win only four times more to be
sure of a tie. To be beaten out,
Washington would have to drop at
least five of its eight remaining
contests.

who have graduated from Galileo
high school in San Francisco.
Rourke entered the University
four years ago, playing Frosh bas

feet injuries. Since then he has
played two years of varsity ball

For OSC Game
Takes Shape
Courtney, B. Jones,
Silver, Liebowitz
Expected to Start;
Other Post in Doubt
Four Oregon basketeers are vir
tually certain of places in the
Grenadier quintet which will open
the Oregon State game at Corval
lis tomorrow night, but three men
are battling for Howard Hobson's
starting call at the fifth position.
Sam Liebowitz, Budd Jones,
Dave Silver, and Bill Courtney are
the lads almost sure to answer the
opening whistle. Ken Purdy, Wil
lie Jones, and Johnny Lewis are
fighting it out for the remaining
post.
Silver Coming Fast
Silver, sophomore from Lincoln
high of Portland, has been coming
fast of late and was the Webfoots’
leading offensive threat in the sec
ond Washington game here last
week-end. Dave stands six feet,
four inches tall and is invaluable
at the backboards. His southpaw
shooting is dangerous at all times.
He apparently holds the edge over
Ward Howell at present.
Budd Jones, another member of
the five which threw a scare into
Washington's unbeatable Huskies
Saturday, is a strong defensive
player and a consistent floor man.
Liebowitz is Oregon’s number one
scorer and feeder.
Courtney to Start
Courtney has a slight edge over
Rollie Rourke for one of the guard
posts. Little Bill will be detailed
to the dubious task of checking
willowy Wally Palmberg, the
northern division's leading point

UO Swimmers to
Hold Trials Today
Squad to Leave for
South February 11
Mike Hoyn'.an's Oregon, swim
mers will leave at high noon, Feb
ruary 11 for California, where
they will meet the swimming
squads of San Jose state, Stanford,
and California in three successive
days of grueling competition.
The Duck mermen will swim
against San Jose State in the
Spartan pool >n the evening of
February 12. They then journey
to Palo Alto, where they will
match strokes with the powerful
Stanford swimmers on February
14, and then to Berkeley for a meet
with the Bears the following
night. ,
Large Crowd May Attend
Although untried in competition
this season, tales of the Webfoots’
speed and skill have already invad
ed the campuses of the southern
colleges, and large crowds will
probably attend the meets to see
the Oregon team in action.
Time trials will be held in the
Gerlingcr pool at 3 p. nr. today to
decide the swimmers who will ac
company Hoyman. Only nine men
will be taken, and several of the
positions are still open.
For the first time in many years,
the Pacific coast conference’s
northern division will hold its
swimming meet on the Oregon
campus. The meet will be held in
Gerlinger pool on April 4. Oregon
will have the great advantage of
swimming in its own pool, which
will help the Ducks defend their
championship.
The University of Washington
swimmers will journey south to
Eugene for a meet with the Ore
gon mermen in Gerlinger pool
February 29. After the condition
ing trip south, the Ducks should
be in the pink of form.

Quacks
By TOM McCALL
When Stanford's Hank Luisetti scored 30 points against Southern
California in the game that dropped the Trojans from the leadership
of the southern division, he staited an argument or two among coaches,
players, and other followers of the leather “borl." First, the contro
versy dealt with the question of whether or not 30 points in one game
was a conference record. California scribes were quick to acclaim it as
such, but statistically minded L. H. Gregory blew their stories up
higher than a stork when he dragged from the past the 35 point shoot
ing spree that was staged by Oregon's little Eddie Durno in 1919.
* h* =**
The importance of the \ erbnl duel concerning the coast scoring
record was diminished, however, by a few rather nasty remarks that
were coined by Sam Barry, coach of the coast championship Trojans.
Barry didn't mince his words when he described the tactics that
Luisetti resorted to in scoring 14 points in the closing six minutes of a
i Stanford-Southern Cal hoop war a couple of Saturdays ago. Fumed
he, to an Associated Press reporter:
“With respectable officiating, Luisetti would have never been
able to get on that scoring rampage.
“Eddie Oram was doing his best to guard Luisetti legally, but
Luisetti would give Eddie a shove with his shoulder and then loop the
ball into the basket with an overhand sweep.
“Van can bet he won’t get away with anything like that when
Stanford comes down here. Officiating in the south has been terrible
this year.”
* * *
Don't think for a minute that Johnny Bunn, Stanford mentor,
would let the reputation of Luisetti be sullied while he, John. wa„
still walking upright on this earth. A San Francisco Examiner reporter
tapped Bunn for the following rebuttal:
“II sounds like a bit of sour grapes to me, And I think I can under
stand Sam. It's tough to be 15 points ahead in the middle of the second
halt oi a game and then >se out by four points, particularly if you’re
the defending champion."
Bunn maintains tiiat Luisetti plays with less contact than any
hoopster he has ever seen, or come up against.
lit * *
Bunn could have silenced the yipping of the veteran Barry by
mciely quoting the clean play record that Luisetti hung up last year
as an Indian Papoose. During the 31 games that he played as a frosh
Hank averaged 19 points a game and yet had a total of only 38 fouls
called against him. Incidentally, lie showed his speedy wares before
15 different referees in the 1935 wars. Such a large tribunal should be
able to hand down rather conclusive evidence as to Luisetti’s “clean
liness.”

Yearlings Set

Anet Out of Duckling
Lineup; Both Quints
Undefeated Since
Splitting Openers
Having lost but one contest of
the 12 played so far this season,
and that u two-point over-time de
feat by the Oregon State Rooks,
John Warren's Oregon Frosh will
swing into action on the home
floor tonight against the Beaver
Yearlings in an attempt to further
avenge that loss.
The Frosh came back after their
first and only defeat of the year
to take the second game from the
Orange youngsters by a 32-21
count. The third of the four game
series tonight is scheduled to start
at the Igloo at 7:30.
Teams on Winning Streaks
Since their last meeting, both
quintets have been undefeated, the
Frosh having taken Astoria, Til
lamook. and the Riggs' All-Stars in
stride, while the Rooks hold recent
wins over LaGrande, Pendleton,
and Baker high school.
After last night’s brief workout,
Laddie Gale, center, and Wally Jo
hansen, forward, seemed to be the
only two men certain of starting
assignments. Gail Fonts or big
Dee Phelps will start at the other
forward position, while both guards
will be named from a group con
sisting of Bob Smith, Gale Smith,
Rod Hanson and Hank Nilsen.
