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.
Frosh Battle Redmond High School,
Vanport in Weekend Preliminaries
The talented Oregon Frosh have
another tough pair of games sched

high school and Saturday evening
Vanport J. C. makes its second trip
of the season to McArthur Court.
In the first Vanport game the
Duckling's rallied late in the game
to defeat the Vikings, 50-44.
The Ducklings now have a record

Saturday evening to hand the
Ducklings their first defeat of the
season.
Coach Kirsch will use the same
lineup against the weekend oppon

Curt Barclay, back after a week

By PETE CORNACCHIA
Three thrillers and three run
aways were staged Tuesday night
in another found of iiitramural “A”
basketball action. 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

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.
Nation's Basketball Ratings Given
By MARTIN MEADOWS
The Holy Cross Crusaders, un
defeated in 14 starts this season

the top ten clubs remained intact
although several changes were
made.

close 55-52 decision to North Caro
lina State, came back to swamp
Fort Monmouth, 82-55, but still
skidded to second.
Duquesne followed in the number
three slot. The Dukes are the onlj
other major team without a loss on
their record; they have won 14
games. Fourth spot was held by St
John's which lost to DePaul. 74-68
and trounced Kings Point. 85-47.
One of the week's major shock
ers was engineered by Detroit,
which blasted' Bradley U., 67-54, af
ter losing to the same team earlier
in the week, 71-50. The split tum
bled Bradley to fifth.
The number six squad was idle
CCNY (9-2), which moved up past
Kentucky. The latter dropped to
seventh as the result of a 71-60 de
feat to Georgia, although they
racked up wins over Georgia Tech

ed to eighth after picking up vic
tories over Long Island and North
Carolina to give them a record of

nine position, while Kansas State
remained tenth by rolling up a 99
57 triumph over Iowa State.
Other surprises saw Illinois whip
Ohio State, Alabama edge Tulane,
and Iowa State bounce Missouri.
