Lemon-and-Green Varsity
Toys with Freshmen Squad
As First Game Approaches
Three long' scrimmages with a developing Freshman team took up the varsity squad s at
ternoon yesterday with the opening game with Willamette a week off.

straight wins over the Yearlings by good margins.
The first tilt saw the veterans roll to a quick 18-4 yead, paced by guard Bob Lavey, and
then coast to a lopsided 53-29 win. Lavey an 1 LeRoy Coleman were high for the winners,
each chalking up eight tallies. Jer- -y_

Paul Sowers with five were also in
strumental in the win.

guard Ken Hunt, center Jim Vrani
zan, and forwards Bill Clausen and
Bob Gilbert. Gilbert and Vranizan
gave Wiley a bad time under the
boards.
Wiley was all over the floor in
the second game, playing like a
demon in gathering rebounds, sink
ing two out of three foul shots and
a phenomenal seven out of nine from
the floor. His 16 points were high
in the 64-33 win.
Others showing well were Don
Peterson with nine points, Paul
Sowers with seven, and Bob Ama
cher, Kenny Seeborg and Leroj
Coleman, with six.
Gilbert Pots Nine
Gilbert and Hunt again paced the
Ducklings, Gilbert tallying nine
points and working the boards well
while Hunt directed back court ac
tivities and was second high with
six points.
The final scrimmage was short
er than the first two, the varsitj
again winning, 28-18. Dick Unis,
letterman guard, went on a scoring
spree and bucketed ten points to
lead all scorers. Will Urban, star
red in gathering rebounds, and Jack
