Ii.fi Soph Star Hacked By Scholastic Axe By WALLY HUNTER The clammy hand of ineligibility reached deep down into the ranks of the University of Oregon’s varsity swimming team yesterday and lugged off one of Coach Mike Hoyman’s most prized packages. Ace Spring Man Bob Irvin was de clared ineligible by Oregon Pacific coast conference represen tative, Orlarido J. Hollis, on a charge of not having enough HUSKIES DUMP BEAVERS, LEAD LEAGUE L<f rh UX~J1JI1U J ./ iti * ill me nail, ^Washington's hoopmen roared luck into the second period of their game viith Oregon State in i'orvallis last night and right t hrough the hapless ifeetlvers, 42 to 38, to clamp at least' a teiu jiorary hold on the top spot in IfVorthern division plav. •v Not until Huskies Leask, Jnndh,"and F'ord had collaborated i r 8 points jri the second period, blowing the visitors’’ total to 23, < id the Beavers snap out of their Jsthargy and score—1 point on a freethrow by Center John Man cie. Score then, Washington 23, .Oregon State 19. Beavers Throttled Again the Huskies throttled Liadh and Gilbertson making it 28. This lopsided barrage was fin ally punctuated with a Beaver shot from the foul line by Va lenti. the Beavers' assault guns and Mulder of OSC flicked one through from the floor, but Gil bertson retaliated, and the Huskies were still in the lead, 80 to 23. OSC took time out, then picked up 1 point on a freethrow, but Gilmur of the Huskies reared up with a pot from the floor to stick the in vading five farther ahead, 32 to 24. Becks’ foul try broke the Wash ington run—32 to 25.

A flurry of OSC baskets by Mandic and Beck, and the Beavers had crept up to within 4 points of the Huskies—36 to 32 —forcing the visitors into a time out p'eriod. Touch-and-Go It was touch-and-go from here on in, with the Beavers putting on a violent last-few'-minutes’ surge kies. Beck and Valenti threatened to turn the Husky tide in re verse, but couldn’t quite make it Final count, Washington 42, Ore gon State 38. Washington canned 16 out of 49 pops from the floor, while the Beavers dripped 14 through in 40. Oregon State won Mon day night, 45 to 35, so this Washington win evens the series so far as those schools are concerned. Oregon State’s Lou Beck led the scoring with 14—5 field goals and 4 freethrows. The Beavers hike up to Eugene next Satur day to do battle with the Web foots. Alpha, Zeta, Kappa Sigma Triumph Too B\ ,T. SPENC EK MILLER Competition got tough all of u oiutdon *n the “A” basketball league with a pair of torrid eon test'., in which the Sigma t'his leased out a big band of Fizzeds lira an overtime period, 29 to 27, end a gallant crew of pint-sized Jilelts did not quite catch a flying Awful Awful club in a dogfight that ended 23 to 21. Other games saw two indepen dent teams come out of the dol rtlrams to garner their first vic tories; Alpha hall going over the i- imraies, 38 to 19 in a scoring t. \ and Zeta hall swamping a \ eak Phi Psi squad, 32 to 7. In S final game played, the Kappa i'.gs, defending champs, looked \ ry Impressive in trouncing Sig *> o, hall 43 to 7. The SAEs won by i ufeit as the Alley Rats failed t . show. Sigs Scared An unheralded Fizzed team jg tve the Sigma Chis the scare of 1 leir lives before going under on Prank Baker's "sudden death" l k< in an overtime period, 29 f > 27. It was 27-ali at the end •of the regulation period. The Sigs jumped out in front early and held a slim lead until near the end of the third period, w hen Don Mabee and tllcn Kel b \ combined to dunk three to |).:$ I he Fizzeds ahead 23 to IS. To ' game was intensely played. and fouls were very numerous, and play hard. Mabee went out on personals at the start of the fourth quarter. Baker Provides Margin The Sigs trailing, fought fur iously, and came back to even it up on a great exhibition by Frank Baker. The time ran out with the score sewed tighter than a drum .at 27-all. In the opening minutes of the < overtime, Baker drifted into the keyhole, took a sharp pass from Dick Burns and swished the net to provide the margin of victory. The Sigs captured the bail and played “catch” with it till the time ran out, despite the frantic efforts of the Fizzeds. Double A’s Nip Delts The second feature lacked none of the thrills of the first in a con test that saw a second half rally by the Delts nearly turn into a victory over a superior Awful Awful aggregation. But the clock ran out, and the Double A's squeezed by 23 to 21. The Awfuls started out smoothly, and with a rifle pass attack led by Bill Craig, took an easy 12 to 5 lead at half time. Arne Jensen and Jack Besse, A Y forwards with super ior reach, kept the ball out of the Delt’s range and dominated the court. The Delts hustled and kept on the move constantly, but their siyall stature was a handicap. But in the second half this hustle began to play dividends, and the fighting Delts smashed back to make it IP to 22. Chuck Larson was a one-man Delt of fensive and poured in 12 big points. Lee Kilburg and Jerry Battles stopped the Awfuls, and outfought them for the ball to feed Larson. But old Father Time ran away from the Delts with the ball in their possession, and the score, 23 to 21. Independents Triumph The class of the independents, Alpha hall, steadily pulled away from the Sammies to win going away, 38 to 19. It was close at first with the halftime score leading 15 to 21, but with Kay Ito and “Yuke” Paris sparking a smooth offensive, the Alphamen ran up a commanding lead. Harry Glickman, SAM guard, who played outstanding ball, tried to stem the tide, but he had little support, and Alpha poured it on. “Hoot” Bailey played his usual line floor game and fed the ball to Ito and Paris who dunked 8 points apiece. Another independent club, Zeta hall, had no trouble, thoroughly beating a hapless bunch of Phi Psis, 32 to 7. Sherman Olts with 12 and Walt Reynolds with 10 were top Zetamen of the day and looked impressive. Big J. D. Me AC HANDBALL All campus handball sched ules for this term are all set to be run off. Participants should get in touch with Paul R. Washek, director of intra mural and all campus sports, immediately. Gowan was a literal tower of strength under the basket, and never let the Phi Psis touch a rebound. For the Phi Psis, Russ Rohrer was again the only man that showed anything at all. Kappa Sigs Tough A hot “scoring duel between Jim Higgins and Bill Jameson of the Kappa Sig club featured their route of Sigma hall, 43 to 7. In the first half it was all the hairy chested Jameson, who dropped in 12 points, but Higgins took over in the second to put in 16 big ones. Big Jim was all over the court to hit them from every angle and edge out Jameson IS points to 14. Joe Montag and Floyd Rhea balanced a big tough club that is going to be hard to beat. Phi Deits Pledge One LeRoy Erickson was pledged Monday by Phi Delta Theta, ac cording to the dean of men's office. Opening of 14 state teachers' colleges in Pennsylvania was de layed by an outbreak of infantile paralysis. term nours to ms credit to De a legal sophomore, and thus not being eligible for the Oregon varsity. The lanky Irvin, who last year was on the All-American swim ming team, is credited with hav ing only 31 term hours of school work and the requirement is 36. The Piedmont lad was being counted on to take care of the heaviest part of the load in all of the sprints this year. His absence leaves a gaping hole in the ranter^ of Hovman's Webfoot mermen and might well send shimmering all hopes for an Oregon northern division crown. Plans Messed Coming on the eve of Oregon’s conference opener with the OSC Beavers, it leaves Coach Hoyman with a set of badly messed plans. The Beavers will invade the Duck campus Saturday. Taking Irvin’s place in the No. 1 slot in the sprinting ranks will probably be Sophomore Chuck Weitzel. This still leaves Hoyman with vacancies in the 100-yard dash, and the 400-yard relay, and there are only three days remaining in which to groom a replacement. If all gce« well in the opening" meet, Coach Hoyman will have until February 7 to whittle out a substitute. A return splash with the Beavers is scheduled for the Corvallis campus on that date. Huskies vs. Ducks Next meet — and one of the most important of the season— comes on February 17 when Ore gon and the listed Huskies of the University of‘Washington clash. Coach Hoyman’s luck this year with his ace paddle has been nothing short of very poor. First casualty was his No. 1 backstroke ace, Cub C'al lis, who failed to return to school this term. Add to this a promising crop of fiosh mermen who made its exit with the old term, and ^'ou have a picture of a little of the trouble that r as dogged the foot steps of the genial Mike. Erb Plans Coastal Trip Dr. Donald M. Erb, University president, will speak to a group of Tillamook civic clubs Tuesday. January 27, on “Death and Tax es.” The meeting, to be held afc^" 6:30, has been arranged by the Kivvanis club and will include members of the Lions’ club and Tillamook chamber of commerce. Orides Throttle Hendricks,. 30-4, Highland Nicks Susie in Coed B’ By NANCY LEWIS Orides and Highland house WA V basketball squads ran off with the season's openers yester day on Gorlinger court. Orides, striding out in smooth form, waxed Hendricks hall, fall volleyball champions, 30 to 4, in one of the most lopsided contests in WAA basketball history. Highland’s lassies squeezed out a bare 1-point win over Susan Campbell, runners-up in fall WAV volleyball, 7 to 6. The girls go at it again today, with Kappa Alpha Theta taking on Zeta Tau Alpha, and Alpha Omicron Pi scheduling Highland house. Thursday, January 22, Gam ma l’hi Beta clashes with the Lame Ducks, while Chi Omega does battle with Delta Gamma. Monday, January 26, Zeta Tau Alpha and Orides play each other ia the second game for both outfits. The same day Highland will be up for its third game of the season, this against the Lame Ducks in their second. ....Swimming and bowling aren* also on the menu for Oregon coeds this term, with competi tion in both scheduled to swing into high gear soon.
