For Home Series
With SI. Mary's
Coach Bill Boreher's Oregon bus
ketball team puffed and sweated
through another hard workout
Tuesday night in preparation for
! their two game series this week
! end with the St. Mary's Gaels.
Extensive Scrimmage was held
between units of varsity and junior
! varsity athletes, with the emphasis
on polishing off rough edges in all
! phases of play which became so
! appaient during last week's Wash
' ington series.
Scrimmages Run
Leading off in the full-court
' scrimmage sessions for the varsity
were Captain Ken Hunt and Bob
Hawes at guards, tall Chet Noe
at center, with Sophomore Barney
Holland and six-foot, six-inch Hank
Bonneman at the forward slots.
Opposing them were Ron Phil
lips and Don Seigmund. stars of!
last year's frosh squad at forwards,
another sophomore. Doug Rogers,
at center, and freshman Alex By
ler and Hug Marxer at guards.
The varsity cagers walked away
to a 28-18 victory in this ten min-1
ute session, despite a full-court
pressing defense by the JV's. This
type of defense was a big factor j
in the shackling of the hitheitoj
potent Duck fast break by the (
Washington team.
Phillips Shoots Well
Noe and Bonneman were effec- |
tive for the varsity on the boards
and in the scoring columns, aided ,
by two consecutive long shots by j

Globetrotters Romp
To 50 ■ 40 Decision
Over Collegiate Team
By John Whitty
The Harlem Globetrotters lived up to their advance notices
last night as the\ gamboled their way to a 50-40 victory over
the Oregon All-Stars, a team composed of Oregon hoopsters of
the past few vears.
The game was verv slow in getting started, as neither team
seemed able to hang onto the ball long enough to crack the de
tense of the other. The Globetrotters finally managed to build
a 7-J> lead, largelv on the efforts of "Pop" Gates, who plays a
very good floor gome. often scor
ing as the result of tricky fakes
which he executes with the pre
cision of long years of practice.
The All-Stars came hack fight
ing. though. Rml tied the score at
7-7 on u tip in by Ken Hayes. The
Trotters took the lead again a
moment later, however, on a buc
ket by Bob Hull, a good rebounder,
a good floor man. and a fine shot.
From then on the Harlem boyx
were never headed, although the
Oregon grads continued to threaten
throughout the game.
During the first half of the game
the Trotters <-ouldn't seem to con
nect. Their lay-ins rolled out, their
hook shots bounded over the bas
ket, and the frequent long two
Imnders by Duke Cumberland
missed consist ent I).
Tlie All-Stars, coached by Bill
Botcher, also had trouble finding
the hoop in the early part of the
game, but part of this can be at
tributed to the fact that none of
them are playing on any regularly
organized hoop squad.
Dribble Act Falls
An attempt at a dribbling art by
Tom Gibson of the world-famous
group failed miserably as he had
the ball taken away from turn
twice. The score ut the end of the
first half of the game favored the
Globetrotters. 29-23. Rather than
brilliant offensive play, the Trot
ters led mainly on the basis of
their determined work.
At the start of the second part
of the tilt, the Abe Sapersteln
sponsored squad looked like a dif
ferent team. Two consecutive bas
kets by Gibson and one by Helena
put the Trotters in the lead by
a 35-23 count. However, the local
quintet went on a scoring drive
which saw Bob Hamilton chalk up
three points and Wiley and Sowers
four each to close the margin to
37-34.
Trotters Start Trleks
At the close of the third period,
the Harlemites were in the lead 41
36, and the return to action of
Bob Hall spelled trouble for the
former Oregon cagers. After four
minute3 of play in the final stan
za, the Globetrotters had increased
their lead to 47-36.
Then they began by a marvelous
exhibition of ball control during
which they had the Oregon team
wondering what was going to hap
pen next. The eomic antics of Hall
and Bahe Pressley had the fans
howling in glee at the confusion
of the All-Stars.
A game of football was played
by the Trotters, with one of their
number making an unsuccessful at

Fijis Crush PiKA
By 53-8 Margin
in 'B' !M Action
By Lauren Loveland
Tuesday was certainly a day < f
contrast as far ns the scores <■!
the Intramural basketball game,
are concerned. It was an afternoon
reserve I for “B" team action agam
and the spectators were favored
with one of the widest varieties
of game styles displayed here In
one afternoon. The I’: Kappa Alpha
' ll" squad fell victim to the steam
rolling team of Phi Gamma Delta
to the tune of 53 to 8. This is one
of the highest scores run up in an
intramural games so far this year.
On the other side of the w aring
the Phi Sigma Kappa “H" team
outlasted the Chi Phi's "B" squad
10 to 0 and Delta Upsllon "B's
nosed out Sigma Phi Epsilon'a "H
quintet 14 to 10. Sigma Alpha Ep
silon's "B" squad let loose an ava
lanche on the hapless Sigma Alpha
Mu "B" quint and floored them by
a 48 to 6 score. In freshman dorm
league play Nestor hall's "B" squad
bowed to French hall's "B" team,
21 to 15.
Fiji's Roll
The I’hi Gumma Delta men were*
virtually unstoppable In their game
with Pi Kappa Alpha as they com
pletely controlled both backboards
and very definitely were tops in
the scoring department.
Hob Zener was high point man
for the game with 15, and right
behind him was Mike I.ally with
14. I-ally also allowed some stellar
work on the backboards. Fred
Mueller had 12 points to his credit
and Don ltced added eight to the
Fiji cause. The halftime seore was
2D to 2 and the final was 53 to 8.
Another game of the same type
was won by the SAE “B” team.
They trounced the luckless Sam
mies 48 to 6. The Sammies, defi
nitely handicapped by a lack of
height, were unable to add a tally
after trailing 24-6 at the half. Kay
Karnofski of SAE took the scoring
honors of the contest with ID
points. Bob Smith dropped in 8
points and Bob Brittain scored 7
on two field goals and three free
throws. The Sammies’ scoring was
evenly divided among D. Davis,
Merle Davis, and Stan Geffen, eacli
with two points.
French fluids Early Lead
In freshman competition Nestor
hall's "B" quintet dropped their
game with French hall's squad 21
to 15. The first quarter was very
slow, ending with the score of 5
to 4 in favor of Nestor. In the sec
ond quarter French opened fast
with a free throw and a field goal
by Stan Savage, a field goal by
Jack Murray, and another by Rich
ard Nix before Nestor could catrti
