HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS Tuesday Jan. 22 Game Time 8 p.m. Student Price 60c Tickets at McArthur court and the SU MAIN DESK Huskies Grab League Lead From Webfoots Oregon Drops First Tilt, 74-36 By RickTari Tlic University of Oregon varsity basketball team suffer ed its worst defeat of the season at the hands of the Washington Huskies in Seattle hriday night bv a score of 74-3<i. Previous to the Kdmundson 1 ’a\ i 11 ion dis aster, the greatest margin of points over the \\ ebfoots was seven when they were dropped bv Wyoming. The unbelievable 38 point margin racked up by the Huskies came as a surprise even to the most con vinced Washington supporters. Oregon has never been any farther ‘ off while Tippy Dye‘s outfit was as hot as the well known two-bit pistol. Good Defense With the score at 6-5 midway in the first period. Guinness & com pany went to work and decided to make three buckets to Oregon's one. The opening period score of 14-6 gave an indication of things to come. Coach Borcher began try ing every possible combination as all twelve of the squad saw action during the course of the night. From the start it was evident that the Washington defense was taking no chances with the pre viously dangerous Duck fast-break. They employed a full court press ing defense highlighted by the hall hawking genius of Joe (ipriuno. Center Doug McClary carried out his task of controlling Oregon's ace Bob Peterson so well, that the big boy tanked only two field goals duiing the game. It was this glue like defensive game as much as the Oregon team's sub-par shoot ing that accounted for the low score. HI' Solves Defense Ironically the Huskies found Ore gon’s alternate zone and man-to man defense just to their liking. Shots came in from every angle, making the secretly practiced sys tem look harmless. With tiie score 33.17 at the open ing of the third period, Washington came out best in a wild flurry with three baskets in approximately thirty seconds. Almost every time ; the play got wild, a Washington , man would lie found all alone un der the basket for an easy shot.

BRISTOWS Jewelers 620 Willamette UW Repeats With 64-39 Win By Larry Lavelle What promised to have been a touch and no Northern Divi sion race took on tlx- aspect of a walkaway following Uni versity of Washington'-, 64-3') [rout of the visiting University of ( >regon Ducks Saturday j night in KdinumDon I’aviltion, Seattle. A near turn-away crowd of 12,- j 000 muw the home-town Huskies break a relatively close game wide open in the third quarter, to win going uway. The victory completotf u disasterous two game series which saw the winners vault into 1 the league lead with 5 wins and 1 one defeat. Oregon toppled from first into third, a full game behind the University of Idaho Full Court Defense Coach Tippy Dye of the Huskies utilized the same tactics which produced a surprisingly easy, 71 30 decision over the Ducks the previous evening. Dye stymied the j Webfoota’ fast-break by employing a pressing, full-court defense which continually harried the frustrate! j Eugene team. By double -1 earning Oregon's ace, Bol» Peterson, the Huskies bottled up the nation's lending rebounder; it was not uncommon for (lie Wash ingtonians to take four and five siiots in a row at the bucket, thanks to the work of Duane Enochs, Doug Mct'lary, and Bob Houbregs. Houbrrgs and McClary seemed to l>c fully recovered from their "leg Injuries,’’ which only added to th" miseries of the woeful-shooting Ducks. The Ducks pestered the new pace.setters, opening up a quick 4-0 lead before Frank Guinness could add the first of his 17 points which was high for the night's work. Chet Noe, Duck center, potted a hook shot for on 8-6 lead, but Guisness meshed a free toss and a slippery one from Nooksack valley, Guard Joe Cipriano squirted through for a lay up and a 9-8 Washington margin. Huskies I-cud at Half Moments later Bottler tacked uj*. two points on a set up but a bucket by Mike McCutcheon and two more charities for Guisness handed the Huskies a 15-11 reading at the quarter. The two maintained the same ratio throughout the second period, the point spread never exceeding seven points nor dropping under four markers.
