This unusual situation Is due to the fact that lost year’s Oregon mentor, John Warren, decided to withhold Bud from competition not only to give him a little more seasoning hut also because the Ducks were well-stocked with vet eran guards, namely Jack Keller, Mel Krause, und Ken Hunt, to name a few. This season, his first in varsity play, has seen the 5' 10" Covey act mainly as reserve strength for Borcher. generally in the late stages of the game when good ball handlers are needed to hand on to a lead. Bud. who is majoring in history. lists Portland aa hie hometown, hi which city he performed for Jef ferson High school in both football and basketball. In the grid sport Covey filled a backfield position for three years for Jefferson. During that period of time Jeff captured two city crowns and finished second in the state tournament in 1M8. That was the year that Bud was named to the second string Alt-Cify squad. Covey also put in three years or basketball time for Jeff, and was the spark of the 1SM8 team which swept to the city title only to lose out in the state playoffs. As one of several promising sophomores on Borchora roster, Covey helps to ease any Duck worries concerning the guard spot in the near future.

The ROTC Jets still lead the Monday night Faculty league with 14 wins and G losses. Col. Hanes holds the league high average at 163. Tuesday Intramural shows Theta Chi in the top spot with IS out of 16. Ned Takasumi has the high average of 167. Wednesday Intramural honors Sigma Phi Epsilon at 15-5. Kill Perkett figures a score of 169 to take first place for averages. Phi Kappa Alpha tally reads 17 for 3 for the number one spot in Thursday's intramural compe tition. This same team boasts Har old Ireland's 164 league leading average. inc (James oi me ween are as follows: Bruce Koppe, 541; Tom Macdonald, 580; Mery Knglund, 522; A. I*. Willey, 520; Sgt.

The absence of rooters for the bowling teams is in the form of a mixed blessing. While there is no one present to boo the losing squad, (a favorite pastime of Ore gon students) it follows that there is also no one around to cheer the winners, buy Cokes and candy at the desk, or fill up the vacancies at the pool and ping-pong tables when bowling begins to pall.
