Half-way through its conference
season, Washington has the lead
ing scorer in Center Bob Hou
bregs, who has poured in 227

pace that would top Nichol's
mark. Noe has a 17.3 average and

Oregon, 15.0.
Houbregs, with a fat 59 per
cent on field goals and Ed Hal
berg of Oregon, who is hitting
50 per cen.t are well above the
record of 46.7 per cent set in
1951 by LaDon Henson of Wash
ington. Ken Wegner of Oregon
leads the heavy shooters from
the free throw line with 78.4
per cent with Mike McCutcheon.
Washington, second. 78.0 per

is the No. 1 rebounder with 83
in seven games for a 11.9 aver
age, followed by Houbregs, 11.5,
and Doug McClary, Washington,
10.5.
As a team Washington is shoot

(record. 35.8 per cent!, 73.3 per
cent from the free throw line (rec
ord. 68.7 per cent) and has scored
593 points for an average of 74.1.

ond half of the season would top
the old division mark by 164
points. The Huskies also have al
lowed the fewest points defen
sively.

St. Louis Owner
Sentenced to Jail
For Tax Evasion
ST. LOUIS i.'Pi -The owner of
the St. Louis Cardinals, Fred M.
Saigh, was sentenced to 15 months
in prison and fined $15,000 today
for income tax evasion. And Saigh
announced immediately that he
will sell out his holdings in the
baseball team.
The 48-year-old Saigh told the
couit:
“This means, of course, I will
• have to dispose of the Cardinals.
There is no way I cah stay in base
ball.”
He also told the court that he
had seen lesser sentences given
men for income tax evasion and
added:
“I think yon have been too tough
with me.”
Federal Judge Roy M. Harper
imposed the sentence after Saigh
had asked permission to plead no
defense to two counts of an in
dictment for tax evasion and had
thrown himself on the mercy of
the court.
The judge gave him until May 4
to get his affairs in order before
going to prison. The sentence was
15 months in prison on each of
two counts, but with the sentences
to run concurrently. The fines were
$10,000 on one count and $5,000 on
another.
Senate to Hear
(Continued from pane one)
millrace. He added that before
definite plans can be made by the
group, Sidney Little, dean of the
school of architecture and allied
arts, must be consulted.
Francis Gilmore, senator at
large and chairman of the honor
code committee, said that she ex
pects the senate to appoint a com
mittee of interested students to
work on a long-range four-year
program to institute a partial hon ■
or code in the University. She
stated that “here was an oppor
tunity for those interested in stu
dent government to work at it.”

Aero Club First
For Aquamen
Oregon's distance swimmers are
nearly in shape for their first
meet of the season against the
Aero club of Portland, Coach John
Borchardt stated Tuesday. The
meet, which will take place Jan.
31, will be held in Portland.
Borchardt said the team mem
bers had been training for their
1 individual events since Monday,
after working for several weeks
on conditioning alone.
Gordon Edwards and Yosh Ter
ada, two of Oregon's top per
formers, are expected to win their
events against the Aero club. Last
year, Edwards was high point
man in the AAU meet and he
stands a good chance of repeating
this year, Borchardt said.
Accompanying the regulars to
Portland will be five freshmen.
Although their points will not be
counted, Borchardt hoped the
frosh would gain some experience.
The freshmen making the trip
include: Yoji Matsushima, dis
tance and sprint swimmer; Dale
Bergerson, diver; Jerry Froebe,
Amos Bowles and Pete Van Berk
out, sprinters.
