Undefeated Bums Tip JVTO in Overtime 26-22 Yeomen Sink Delta Upsilon As Intra’ Windup Nears In one of the hottest contests of the intramural season The Bums last night stole an overtime game from the Alpha Tau Omega boys 26 to 22 to remain undefeated in league compe tition. In the other half of the doubleheader event the Yeomen won a low scoring affair from Delta Upsilon 17 to 16 to give the independents a double victory in yesterday’s play. Weary Beavers See Hope Fade -for Hoop Tiara A battered and weary Oregon State basketball squad started pre paring Thursday for the first ser ies of the season with the power ful Washington Huskies here next Monday and Tuesday nights. Hec Edmundson’s league leading Husk ies play a return series with Ore gon at Eugene Friday and Satur day night before moving over to Corvallis. Coach Slats Gill’s Orangemen re turned to the campus Wednesday night from an unsuccessful inva sion of the Inland Empire. Fears Over the trip were well founded as the Beavers dropped three out of four games, losing twice to Idaho and splitting with Washington State. Only bright spot of the trip was Monday night’s 50 to 48 vic ttfry over the Cougars with the brilliant Gale Bishop in the lineup. Oregon State now stands on the ragged edge of being eliminated . from the conference race. The Bea vers are tied with Idaho for sec ond with five wips against four losses and have seven games left to play, five of which are at home. At present Washington is half a game in front of the pacK with five wins and three defeats. It’s still anybody’s race with a good possibility of two or even three of the evenly matched clubs winding up in a tie for first. Inability to hit the basket con sistently was the chief factor in the Beavers’ three road trip losses. After posting a scoring average of 50.6 in their first five conference contests, the Orangemen slumped The ATOs were six points ahead of The Bums as the game progress ed into the final quarter, but the, independents were too hot to be stopped as they knotted the count at 20-20 with but a minute left In the fray. Seida, Bum forward, opened the overtime with a one hander from under the bucket. Second's later Stoinhoff cast off from the middle of the floor to swish a howitzer and put the game back on an even par. Seida Again It was Seida again who broke the deadlock with a free throw and ultimately cinched the victory. The slender • Bum forward flipped in still another gratis toss and a field goal from under the bucket to add to his individual laurels for the evening. Stoinhoff was high point man for the evening with eight tallies and was closely followed by the aforementioned Seida, whose seven counters, six of which came in the overtime period, was high for the ■winners. Yeomen Coast The Yeomen won their game in the first half as they built up a 15 to 8 lead and coasted through the game with one lone bucket in terribly to an average of only 39.7 in the four Palouse country battles. The winning effort against Wash ington State was the only game cn the tripsin which the Beavers reached the 50 mark. Only Orangeman to shoot at all consistently on the trip was Red Rocha, 6 foot, 8 inch center, who poured in 45 points in the four games to boost his conference total to 95 for nine games. The other four starters remain closely bunch ed with forwards Erland Anderson and Glen Warren having 66 apiece; Cliff Crandall, 63; and Bernie Mc Grath, 61.
