THE Firing Line By PAT FRIZZELL Their own medicine in great big bitter doses. That's what Oregon State's ring around-the-rosy Beavers had to gulp down in the rapidly-renovated Igloo Saturday night. And 6500 pairs of eyes were upon them. When Hobby Hobson sent his lads out there armed with the Beavers' own zone defense, a lot> of the initiated and uninitiated! were surprised. Among those reg istering amazement, later dis gruntlement, were the Beavers. Since way back Slats Gill has had his gang using zone defenses. And time and again that impene-1 trable zone formation of his has been impregnable. Three seasons ago it was Billy Reinhart’s Web foots who did the waltz - me - j around-again passing. If I recall correctly, they once trimmed the Beavers, 16 to 9, with an offense similar to that used by Oregon State the other night. Well, it was zone against zone Saturday, and the drive of the Bucks opened up the Beavers. Rut the long arms of our lads zoned out the Oregon State attack and it paid practically no dividends. * * * Just about twice all evening the Beavers worked the sphere through that zone defense. If it hadn't been for Hub Tuttle out on the foul line they'd have been mas sacred. As it was, it took free throws to keep them within hail ing distance. But it wasn't Oregon State im potency that won that game. It was Oregon proficiency. The Ducks honestly earned the title of “driv ing Ducks” as they pounded down and through the Beaver guard. * * * Most improved ball player in this league is John Lewis. An in spiration to the team is acting- \ captain John. Those five field goals he chucked into the mesh I Saturday night were instrumental in keeping the Webfoots up there in the race. .They put Lewis in fourth place in division scoring for the season. Unlike most of the Webfoots, Lewis is near the twilight, not dawn, of his collegiate career. Three short years and you’re out in varsity sports, and John Lewis is going out on top of the heap. Ken Purdy can pinch hit on my team any day. Mr. Purdy not only capably steps into a breach and rings the bell with long ones in the clinch. He can also jump into a vacated spot in the lineup and go to town. Purdy never played ball like that before here, even when he piled up the field goals in droves. It wasn't his shooting.' It was the aggres siveness of the lad out there. He intercepted passes right and left and hawked the ball in Anet-Jo hansen, fashion. Bouquets, and plenty of them, to ! Bobby Anet, who sank four field ; goals in seven shots, soloed' through the whole Beaver team once, and did everything else sev eral times; to big Slim Winter mute, who is more aggressive and valuable every time out, and to (Please turn to page four) • Winter Excursion Fares East. • Low-Cost Mecis. • Air-Conditioned Coaches and Sleepers. • Fast, Convenient Service. • Free Pillows and Porter Service in Coaches.

Huskies Prepare For WSC Games Etlniuiulsou May Inject New Men In Lineups Crucial Series. UNIVERSITY OF WASHING TON, Seattle, Feb. 7.—(Special)— Badly battered, but still in the northern division basketball title race, Washington’s Huskies re turned to their home campus last week to rest up from the disas trous Oregon road trip and prepare for the Washington State series here February 12 and 13. Three losses out of four starts against the Beavers and Ducks has convinced Hec Edmundson that new life must be injected into the faltering Husky lineup within the next two weeks. Consequently, two new faces may appear in the opening five when Washington en tertains Washington State in the Warren Slates Two Frosh Tilts Ducklings to Meet Texaco And Union Oil on Coast Trip This Week John Warren's Ducklings, win ners of nine of ten starts thus far this season, will journey to the coast for two contests this week end. Tho frosh, it was announced by Mentor Warren yesterday, wiU play the Texaco Oil team at Tilla (Please turn to page four) most decisive series of the season' as far as the Huskies are con cerned. Edmundson was well satisfied by the performance of Jack Gan non, sparkling forward, and the fine effort turned in by George Ziegenfuss, red-thatched sopho more guard, on the road trip, and both are welll established in the hoop picture. In addition, Pat Dorsey, another fast-coming sophomore, may crowd his way into the starting five, replacing Ed Loverich, who is in the depths of a slump which has lasted all season, and is handicap ped by a toe injury received last week. The inability of the veterans, Egge, Wagner, and Loverich, to work effectively with the new comers, Voelker and Gannon, has been the chief difficulty Edmund ?on has faced, but a week's prac tice will furnish Edmundson enough time to arrive at a smooth working lineup.

Saturday—Washington State at Washington, Idaho at Oregon. Oregon’s second place Webfoots opened intensive preparations last night for their final six game dash down the home stretch of this year's hectic northern division bas ketball race. Facing the high-riding Ducks in Eugene Friday and Saturday will be the University of Idaho's Van dal quintet, winding up their four game series. In the midst of a tumultuous three-way fight for first place in the conference, the Webfoots must have two victories over Idaho to stay in the race, and are out to get them. Idaho Fighting Bitterly Coach Howard Hobson is antici pating two of the season's bitterest games from Forrest Twogood’s stubborn Vandals. On the Inland Empire trip three weeks ago, Idaho put up two terrific struggles before losing by margins of two and three points. Hobson spent a major portion of yesterday’s session discussing Ida ho formations, and weaknesses evidenced by the Ducks in Satur day's Oregon State game. The Ducks went through a light scrimmage yesterday against Ida ho plays before calling it a day. They also worked on individual defensive play. •Johansen to Return Wally Johansen, Webfoot guard, is rapidly recovering from flu, and should be back in action the latter part of the week. Johansen heard the Oregon State game from a bed in the infirmary. Coach Hobson is planning on stressing both zone and man-for man defense in practice this week, although it is probable the team will use a man-for-man against Idaho this week-end. Against Idaho on the Inland Empire trip, the Webfoots held Twogood’s Vandals under 30 points in both games, but failed to pro duce the offense they showed Sat urday against Oregon State. Work Against Idaho Plays Special work against Idaho de fensive maneuvers will undoubted ly be one of the main things em phasized in practices this week. Idaho uses a deliberate, slow moving attack similar to the one used by Slats Gill’s Orangemen. Saturday night the Webfoot of fense was clicking.—With Purdy hitting them from outside Oregon State’s zones and Lewis, Anet, Silver, and Gale hitting them from all over the court, Oregon simply failed to give the Orangemen an opening. The defeat definitely put Oregon State out of any further title hopes and put Oregon up in the swim again. The Webfoots have two games each against Washington, Oregon State, and Idaho left on their slate.
