Hot Husky Hooper RUSS PARTHEMER, whom VVebfoot fans will see Friday and Satur day nights when the Ducks take on the University of Washington in McArthur Court before a Dads’ Day crowd. In the Washington of fense, Parthenier plays down in the left-hand corner and drives in for occasional shots. He also plays close for rebounds on both offense and defense.

Kappa Sigma, Delta Upsilon and Sherry Ross won the thrillers and Sigma Nu, Alpha, and Merrick did the running away. Chi Psi took all three matches from Alpha in handball action. Kappa Sigs Win Archie Gacek’s fielder with sec onds to go gave the Kappa Sigs a 20-18 win over the Sammies in one of the better ball games of the sea son. The contest provided better basketball than McArthur Court has seen on several occasions this year. The winners held a narrow 10-8 lead at the half and increased it to 15-10 at the end of the third quar ter. The Sammies never gave up and finally knotted the count at IS IS with less than two minutes to go. Then came Gacek’s game-win ner. Ross Gets Tricky Art Ross, Kappa Sig quard, earn ed a roar from the big crowd lining the walls with a pretty exhibition in the first half. The speedster bounced the ball between the legs of a Samnrie, picked it up behind the defender without breaking his dribble, and drove on in for a lay in. Gacek shared scoring honors with teammate Clausen by grab bing seven points. Mink, Ginzberg, and Artzt each got four for the los ers. DU Overcomes Lead The DUs came from behind in the second half to drop the SAEs, 20 16, in another close one. Paced by Bud Helm, the SAEs rolled to a 11-5 halftime advantage and seemed to be on the way. Delta Upsilon found the range in the third quarter, however, and moved into a 17-13 lead on the final turn. The teams exchanged baskets graveyard any night. The Sigma Oregon s Ducks nave tne jon uus wccmhu auuppmg me University of Washington Huskies before a Dads Day crowd in McArthur Court. Coach John Warren thinks he has the answer for the ques tion, “How to stop Washington?” On defense, the Webfoots will have to hang onto guards Louie Soriano and Frank Guisness. Oregon Must Work Outside On offense, Oregon will have to be able to make their points, or at least start their point-making plays, from outside the keyhole. Washington’s defense, Warren said Monday after his observations of last weekend in Seattle, collapses to the center of the keyhole when the ball is put therein. Last week, Warren put Dale Warberg, his fast-pivoting for ward, in front of the hoop in the key hole. After the game Friday night, Warberg’s forearms and hands were so bruised that it was painful for him to move them. Guisness and Soriano Tough Ken suffered two sprained fing ers in that first fray, said Warren. Everytime the ball was thrown in to Warberg or Vranizan, four, and sometimes five, Washington men would pounce on it, and the Oregon man who was trying to do anything with it. As for Oregon’s defense this com ing weekend, Warren said, it will be simply a matter of trying to stop Soriano and Guisness, because all the Husky scoring punch is located in those two men and the plays they start. Soriano is a dead shot from any Nu defense was tighter than a Re Both teams were guilty of more bad passes than you could find in the for the remainder of the contest. Pope and Schmielding contributed six points apiece to the winning ef fort, and Karnofski got the same for the losers. Sherry Ross Rolls Sherry Ross punted and passed to a 12-11 victory over Cherney in the final close game of the night. Halftime count was 5-4 for the los ers, with most of the action in mid field. Sybouts, Meade, and An thony claimed equal shares in the Sherry Ross total, but Agee of the losers took scoring honors with five. Sigma Nus Victors Sigma Nu rolled over Phi Gamma Delta, 12-4, allowing their victims only one field goal in the process, publican on Saturday night, and was largely responsible for 9-0 half time lead held by the winners. Mc Bee and Salters each claimed four place on the floor, Warren stated. Guisness’ Shot Like Vranizan’s Guisness is no slouch at hitting the hemp from the floor, but his specialty shot really takes place after he fakes his opposition out of position and drives down along the right side to lay the ball up in an underhand fashion. This shot, Warren described, is somewhat like Oregon Center Jim Vranizan’s pet shot from under the basket, eJccept that Guisness tries it after leaving the floor about five feet out from the hoop. Tall Men Don’t Score r The Washington tall men, said Warren, aren’t too dangerous as point-getters except when they grab rebounds. LaDon Henson is capable of a fairly accurate shot*, from the right-hand corner, but he spends more time screening for Guisness when the latter drives in for his jump shot. Duane Enochs, sophomore cen ter, has one chief occupation during the game, Warren declared Mon day. That is screening for the guards, usually Soriano. Enochs will occasionally attempt a shot, but did little shooting last weekend. Cooper Shows Defense Russ Parthemer, the other regu lar forward, generally plays in the left-hand corner when the regular Art McClarney offense is in pro gress. He is expected to garner his share of rebounds this weekend. In Seattle, Warren said, good de fensive work was put in Saturday night by Jack Keller and Paul Cooper. Keller was effective in hanging onto Guisness and Cooper bothered Enochs considerably. points, and Waddle was responsi ble for the one Fiji bucket. Alpha Hall Scores Alpha moved on from a 9-0 half time edge to wallop Sigma, 22-8. Shepherd turned in a good nine point performance for the victors. Mocabee potted the evening's con ventional four points for Sigma. Bill Foreman copped all scoring honors for the night in leading Mer rick to 29-5 rout of Sederstrom. Harold Smith was right behind with nine. It was 20-3 at halftime.^ Sederstrom was another club that managed only one field goal for the night’s work.
