FRIDAY OPENER
Webfoots Rout Tail-enders, 74-49
Staters Stone Cold in First Half
By John Whitty
Emerald Sporttwriler
Bouncing back after two successive beatings at the hands-of
the Washington Huskies last week, Oregon's surprising bas
ketball quintet completely blanketed the visiting Washing
ton State college Cougars in the first contest of a two-game
series at McArthur Court Friday night, downing the visitors
by a 74-49 count.
It was during the first half that
the Webfoots exhibited their su
periority over the men from the
Palouse hills to the greatest ex
tent. The Washington Staters were
unable to make even one point per
minute in the first two periods,
with the halftime total of the vis
itors amounting to only 15 count
ers on four field goals and seven
gift tosses.
Noe Leads Off
Big Chet Noe opened the scoring
for the contest with a tip-in after
approximately a half-minute of
play, and from that point on, it
was definitely Oregon’s game. At
the end of the first stanza, Oregon
led by a score of 17-5, and WSC
coach Jack Friel, a veteran of 25
years in the Northern Division,
sent in his second platoon in hopes
that the jinx could be broken.
Rather than improving, the
situation went from bad to
worse for the Cougars, and at
one point in the second quarter
the Ducks held a lead of 35-7.
The unexciting tilt continued un
til at the end of the half the
score stood Oregon 40, Washing
ton State 15.
In the first half, the Cougars
hit only four field goals in 32 at
tempts for a poor shooting average

of .125, while the Webfoots con
nected on 12 out of 32 tries at the
hoop for a better than average
.428 shooting mark. The Ducks
nabbed 29 rebounds to 14 for the .
visitors in the first 20 minutes of !
play.
Ducks Hold Edge
The last half of the tilt was even,
less interesting than the first, for
the Webfoot cagers maintained
their 25 point lead, while the Coug
ars also began to hit the hemp
fairly regularly, thus erasing the
novelty provided by their inability
to score earlier in the contest.
One aspect of the game which
aided the Ducks in their victory
was the number of free throws
missed by Washington State.
The mediocre average of .406, as
contrasted with the creditable
.667 percentage recorded by the
Ducks.
Twelve' of the fourteen players
used by Oregon hoop coach Bill
Borcher during the course of the
game entered the scoring column,
with 6-foot, 7-inch Chet Noe col
lecting 19 points to gain scoring
honors for the evening. He was fol
lowed in the total points column
by junior guard Ken Wegner with
14 and forward Ed Halberg,
whose five field goals netted him
a total of 10 points.
Webloots Rebound
Perhaps the whole story of the
game can be known by a look at
the rebound statistics. Oregon
cleared 57 from the boards to 33
for the Cougars. This coupled with
the low shooting percentages made
by the visitors provided the mar
gin of victory for the home quin
tet.

Borcher Quint
Triumphs, 75-61
By Larry Lavelle
Emerald Sport, Editor
Treating t h e Washington
State college Cougars as if
they were long-lost cousins—
and unwelcome ones at that—
the University of Oregon
Wcbfoots clipped the visitors
75-61 Saturday night in Mc
Arthur court to vault into a
second place tie in the North
ern division PCC standings.
A couple of Oregon's picket men,
Chet Noe and Ed Halberg, had a
head on the offensive bucket with
a pair of plus 500 shooting aver
ages for the night’s work. Noe at
tempted 13 and hit seven times for
a .538 percentage and Halberg
found the range for a .667 bark—
six for nine. Noe and Halberg were
the game's high-point men with 21
and 14 points respectively.
Cougars Hold Up
The Webfoots were slow to ig
nite and the Cougars made a game
of it until the early part of the
second quarter when the score was
even at 20-20. Keith Farnam led .
off with a charity toss but the
Cougars came right back on the
strength of Pete Mullins’ 20-foot
cast from the left side stripe and
followed up with four more points
for a surprising 6-1 edge. Barney
Holland swished a long set shot
from behind a screen and the
Ducks gradually pared the lead
until Noe dropped through a
couple of free throws at the end
of the period. Oregon led, 17-16.
A free toss by Mullins and
Center Bill Rehder’s lay in knot
ted the issue at 20-20 whereupon
the Ducks broke the game apart
Holland drove through for a lay
up and dropped In a set shot;
Noe hit with a close in shot;
Heiberg deposited a free throw;
and Noe right armed a 10 foot
hook to put the Webfoots out In 4
front, 29-20 at the 3:04 mark of
the second quarter. Oregon in
creased its edge by three and
the halftime reading was 38-26.
Noe and Halberg each hit the
hoop for seven points in the third
period and Cougar Coach Jack
Friel unsuccessfully juggled his
lineup but the build-up continued
and Oregon had a 59-42 cushion at
the three-quarter mark.
A Big Lead
. Midway in the final stanza Big
Hank Bonneman, who had a night
for himself especially in the re
bounding department, came
through with a follow shot which
gave the Webfoots their biggest
working margin of the evening—
74-49.
Washington State’s first pla
toon handled the ball a bit bet
ter than the night before, setting
up their plays well, but they
were just as far off their shoot
ing sticks as they had been Fri
day, hitting a meagre .344 from
the floor and 17 of 25 freetosses.
The Webfoots teamed for a .410
field mark and cashed in with 25
for 33 attempted free throws.
Farnam, with 10 rebounds, topped
that department; and Rehder, with
12 points, led the WSC tossers.
