DUCK TRACKS 1 »n**in(Mlill|lllllll|||||li1!l(l!l|II!lllllll!llll1l1!ll1illllll!llllllllllll1TllllllllllHllllliiiii"i i By ELBERT HAWKINS • “You’ve got to score 38 or 40 points to win in this league,” char acterizes University of Idaho’s friendly Coach Forrest Twogood. And if mind or flesh alone could win for Forrest Twogood at Mos cow, Idaho, you can just bet your hat the Vandals would never lose a game. There’s bespectacled Lyle Smith, the football center. Lyle plays un ’ v a terrific handicap. His ankles ere so bad hist winter and dur ing football season they had to be put in a cast (yes, a cast) after Each ball game. “He can’t run, he can’t see, he can’t shoot,” said Coach Twogood about his athlete, “but still he gets me two or three buckets each game and holds the Other team’s best man down . . . he does it with his heart.” • Then there’s Otis Hilton, 6-foot 8-inch center, who came from £ary, Indiana, to play under Two good. "He’s been in the hospital, Ije got out for just one hour to play against Washington State, for me,” said Twogie, "he had cold, Sinus, flu, everything wrong.” But the amiable Idaho mentor said his string bean, Otis, just about pulled a Cougar game out of the fire. Ida ho trailed by 30 to 29 with four seconds to go when that boy got tyvo free throws. He made one of them to tie it but the Vandals lost out in an over-time. • Steve Belko, all-northern divi sion guard last year, is another one of Twogood's boys who plays under a distinct handicap. Like most of Idaho's basketeers he plays football too and consequently has a bad knee. “This boy has gone down some,” said Twogood, “he can’t score now, they cover him like a cigar box.” Belko got his football knee in spring practice last year and didn’t get to play with the Vandals last fall. Belko and Smith are only a cou ple of the football-basketball ath letes at little Idaho. Four of Two good’s first five, and five of his first ten men are two-sport men. “We’ve got to do it that way, they come here to play football, and that’s the way we get them for lafskctball and baseball.” Not one cent, not a red penny, of scholar ship money is devoted to acquiring baseball material, according to Twogood. University of Idaho is not so much smaller than Oregon at that, having 2,800 students, but until Forrest Twogood came to that in stitution in the fall of ’36 it hadn’t been doing much in basketball and baseball. Twogie is proud of his boys too, “We've come a long way together,” said he. nis canuiu opinion 01 the Van ’ils, that their record doesn’t do the boys justice, is well substan tiated by the league’s other coach es. "For our style of play we’ve got 'o make those set-ups,” is the way puts it, "and we haven’t been '■'ing it . . . we work the ball clear in under m'Tc than we ever did . . . and then we miss.” Don’t ron lude from that he’s alibiing. Two oed has claimed time and again ’’i -t it is a tough league, for any man’s ball team, let alone his where the football players have to play basketball too. Baseball ? “I can’t see much there for next spring,” related Tw-good, whose real sport, you know, is baseball. He was a top notch college baseballer for the University of Iowa and later be came affiliated with the St. Louis Cardinals and the. Cleveland In dians as a pitcher, but his arm went bad and he turned to coach ing. His affliction was that rather painful thing called "bursitis” in the baseball profession. Twogood will name you a list of boys he’ll have on hand at Idaho for baseball this spring, hut after each man’s name will add: "he plays football too, he’ll be OK if that knee. . Pitcher I’aul tireg ory, who beat Oregon hero last spring with a beautiful perform unco, and Max Stoddard, are both footballers.pitchers, \\hitey Prior Mill be a good catcher IF his foot ball knee doesn’t bother too much. Big thuek Atkinson, the basket ball forward, is another baseballer ot note. Twogood says lie’s a bona fide second baseman. ^ Plain and Fancy ' m Beard Trimming p K for the E WHISKERINO Wc will also remove them ■ painlessly afterwards. ■ * KAMPUS ; in BARBERSHOP .

The >;lubs rolled in nine points in the last minute and a half with Oregon netting five. The game’s "pay-off” shot came from the long arm of Slim Winter mute eight minuets after the sec ond half opened. He tipped the ball cleanly through the hoop from a jump ball with Idaho’s co-captain Lyle Smith out near the foul circle. Slim’s unusual basket boosted Ore gon’s lead to 31-17. The Webfoots took a little spurt right after that when Laddie (Sale tipped in a cripple on Wally Johan sen’s rebound, and Wally himself ! capped it with two free throws. ; That made it 35 to 17 for Oregon. Reserves Oct In Soon after that, at the 11-minute j mark, Coach Hobby Hobson start , ed sending in his reserves and at the finish he had practically the i same lineup on the floor that came I from behind at Moscow a couple , of weeks ago to steal a “lost" | frame. Bob Hardy replaced Slim j Wintermute who fouled out at that juncture. Forward Laddie Gale, who was playing with a bad hip, went out | at the 13-minute mark with Wally i Johansen in favor of Ted Sarpola, I the “whirling dervish” junior, and i Ford Mullen, hero of the last Ore i gon-Idaho debacle. Shirley Lund, reserve Vandal guard, opened the last nine-point minute and a half with a free throw to make it 39 to 21, Oregon. - Ford Mullen then took the ball out! of bounds under the Idaho basket1 and heaved in a perfect pass to! Reserve Earl Sandness, another ex-: Astorian, who pushed it in for an | out-pass lay-in. Score: Oregon 41,' Idaho 25. Nurp and Pavvy Connect Back came substitute Cartee! Wood on a one-handed push shot for Idaho to whittle Oregon’s lead to 14 points but Sarpola and then j Matt Pavalunas poked in field goals just before the end to leave Idaho far in the van. The Webfoots got seven points before Idaho even broke into the tally column, Wnitermute collect ing two field goals. Big Chuck At kinson, Vandal forward, finally broke the ice after five minutes of play by converting a free throw on John Dick’s foul. Midway through the first half, Idaho sliced it to 11 to 5 and after 13 minutes to 12 to 9 but that was as close as Twogood's boys ever got. Smooth-working Steve Belko, co captain guard and all-northern division player, and his teammate, Ronald Harris, who tallied ten points, were outstanding for the losers. Summary: Idaho (28) Belko, f .

Things are apt to hap pen to existing records. Here’s what Coach Jack Torney of the Washington brigade thinks: At least six northern division and five Pacific coast records will fall before the meet is over. There’s very little doubt as to the fact that new records will go down for the 200-yard breast stroke and the 150-yard backstroke. Gene Caddy, Husky, has bettered the ex isting record by 1.7 seconds by do ing 2:35. Jack Dallas has shaved 8.7 seconds from the existing coast record by making the time of 2:28. Ralph Lafferty, veteran Webfoot, will aid in this race. Speedy Baekstroker Sherman Wetmore, Duck flash, and Franz Hoskins of Washington will furnish some real excitement in the backstroke. Hoskins is a veteran on the Husky squad, and he makes the 150 in 1:47.2. Wet more, only a sophomore, has been clocked at a faster time than the coast record of 1:40.1. The Oregon 300-yard medley re lay team — Pierce Mallory, Sherm Wetmore, and Jack Dallas—re cently knocked the props from un der the coast record. Coach Tor rey beams over his 400-yard relay team, because he knows they will have the ability to shatter the standing mark. Coaches Ned Johns and Jim Reeci will rely upon A1 Sandner, Jim Marnie, Tom Starbuck, and Pierce Mallory in the free-style events. The top-ranking sprinter on the Husky squad is the veteran George Personettc, who swims the 50-yard dash in :23.7 and the 100 yard free-style in :54.6. Visitors Good Too The visitors have two sopho mores—Pete Goldberg and Mack Brockman—in the 440-yard affair. Brockman has been timed at 4:58. Only one Husky diver is making the trip, as Coach Torney needs extra strength in the backstroke. The Ducks will pick two men from the brilliant trio—Elmer Mallory, Ralph Cathey, ana Leo Gaffney—to meet Bill Langevin, who placed second to Orangeman Jim Edwards in last year's north ern division meet. The Webfoot squad includes: Freestyle: Captain Jack Levy, Jim Marnie, A1 Sandner, Pierce Mallory, and Tom Starbuck. Backstroke: Sherman Wetmore and Jack Levy. Breast stroke: Jack Dallas and Ralph Lafferty. Divers: Elmer Mallory, Ralph Cathey, and Leo Gaffney. The following are on the Husky squad: Free style: Jim Randles, Wally Holden, Dean McAdams, Pete Goldberg, Mack Bockman, and George Personette. Backstroke: Gene Caddey and Bill Yake. Diver: Bill Langevin. Kemember the time; 2:30 o'clock. Thirty Wellesley college seniors are writing novels as part of their work in an English course.

Anderson pro vided the scoring punch, but Joe Gordon besides dropping in six points was the outstanding ball handler on the floor.

Charlie Elliott’s Barber Shop CALLING 'EM QUICK By GEORGE PASERO Assistant Sports Editor Oregon Ducks aren't the cham pions of the Northwest yet, nor will they be until the final Wash ington series in Seattle is history, but Coach Forrest Twogood, Ida ho's personable young mentor, feels certain that "Oregon is the club to represent the league” against the southern division win ners. And Twogood doesn’t qualify his , statement. He makes it outright.! What makes Twogood’s state-1 ment interesting is the fact that his boys have played the best in both circuits. The Vandals made a pre-season tour through the South. Coach Hobby Hobson of the Ducks, for his part, looks for a far better game tonight. "Both teams are capable of playing bet ter ball,” Oregon’s headman said when the firing had deased on Mc Arthur. “Idaho handled the ball better and hit a greater percentage of shots at Moscow.” Reward for the hard-worker . . . In the eyes of Steve Belko and Bren Barrett, Indiana's contribu tions to the Vandal five, there is no better ball player on the coast than big Slim Wintermute. Said Belko, the colorful little guard of the Vandals . . . "That Slim, he always wrecks us. He gets the ball off the backboard and pours in the points when you need them. With out him . . . well?” Barrett, far from a slouch him Talk about VERSATILITY . . .

Then too, there are more better - than - average teams back there.” For three years little Steve Bel. ko has opposed Captain Bobby Anet and Wally Johansen and al ways after the game, these lads get together for a little banter . . . but last night, they skipped the banter for a little “weather” talk, of all things.
