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 16.
