Beavers, Ducks Clash in Pool
Oregon State’s swimming team, |
which broke even on an invasion of
the Inland Empire last weekend,
will travel to Eugene Saturday af
ternoon for a return northern divi
sion meet with the Oregon Web
foots.
In the season’s opener the Web
foot splashers defeated the Orange,
51-34, and will be heavily favored to
repeat in their own pool. Lack of
strength in the relays cost OSC a
possible upset in the initial match.
With the addition to the 400-yard
relay team of speedy Herman
Clark, the Beavers should be much
stronger in this event.
Aqua-Ducks Threaten
(Continued from page four)
and Hargrave have additional op
portunities to achieve all-star rat
ing in the 400-yard relay eevnt by
bettering the marks set by ex
Ducks Mead,,Huestis, and Nelson
several years ago.
Stanley-Davis Duel
Although the probable record
breaking activities may steal the
spotlight, the diving duel between
Oregon’s Jim Stanley and Beaver
Ray Staub should also be of major
interest. Both men have won North
ern Division diving crowns in the
past, and both have been members
of all-Northern Division swimming
teams.
The meet will be the fourth of
the year for Coach Borchardt’s
Ducks. Oregon defeated Oregon
State 51-39 and Idaho 60-22, but
lost 62-22 to the powerful Washing
ton State Cougars, who had an eas
ier time with Oregon State, annhi
lating the Beavers bya score of 68
