game, an eleventh loss in twelve
Ira for the Palou.se Hilts' quint.
Oregon's two candidates for
the M> all-star team, Chet Noe
and Kenny Wegner, again
sparked the high-flying Ducks,
cadi duplicating his Friday's to
tals of 21 and 17 points respec
tively, !
The Cougars hopped to an early
12 to 5 lead, but their momentary
s ict c. sfulness was short lived. Big
Kd Halberg plunked in two quick
field goals and Wegner followed
with some accurate shooting from
tie- foul line to pull the Ducks up
even with iheir opponents, 14 all.
The score was tied again at 16
to 16 and WSC went ahead by one
point a moment later, but again
Oregon *bounced back with a two
pointer by Halberg and a fast
break bucket by Bob Stout to go
ahead for good, 22 to 19. At the
end of the quarter the winners
were still leading by three, 24 to
Platoons Substituted
As the second frame got under
way, both coaches, Bill Borcher
and Jack Fricl for WSC, substi-'
tilted their second platoons. Ore
gon took the upper hand and two
gifters each by Stout and Bob
Hawes gave the Webfoots a sev
en point bulge.
The visitors fought off a
threatening rally by their foes
late in the third period. After
another two platoon substitu
tion, WSC’s second team waxed
hot and tallied twelve consecu
tive points while the Ducks went
scoreless. The count at this time
was Oregon, 66, Washington
State, 54.
Keith Farnam, who incidentally
played one of his better games of
the season, and Barney Holland
canned quick field shots, however,
to quell the Cougar uprising. Dur
ing this last canto, Pete Mullins
of WSC and Oregon's Halberg and
Hank Bonnemann, who had skat
ed through the last half on four
fouls, picked up their fifth per
sonal.

University of Oregon’s Webfoots
added another important victory to
their lengthening string Friday
night at. Bohler Gyrn in Pullman,
Washington hy coming from be
hind to outseore the WSC Cou
gars, 64 to 56.
After three quarters of medi
ocre action, the Ducks carne to life,
mostly due to Chet Noe and Ken
Wegner.
Coast to Victory
Oregon started the last frame
out right as first. Wegner and then
Noe broke through with strategic
field goals From this point on, the
winners coasted to the victory,
helped a lot by the losers who just
couldn't hit from the foul line when
the heat was on.
The Washingtonians built up
steam in the first half and out
played their webfooted foes,
to 29.
laist Half Different
It was a different game in the
last half, though, as Oregon eame
through in the old “college try”
fashion and crept up to within one
counter as the gun initialed in the
final frame.
Noe, a tower under both ba'k
boards, and a fine competitor when
the chips are down, pulled through
in noble fashion with a 21-point
scoring output. Eighteen of these
tallies came the hard way, from
the field.

Edwards Sets Record
As Swimmers Win Two
The Oregon Ducks .swept two
swimming meets this weekend as
they clubbed Idaho 48-34 and
Washington State 48-36.
Gordon Edwards, freestyler from
Lincoln high school of Portland,
established a national collegiate
record in the 1500-meter free
style against Idaho Friday. He
swam the event in 19:25.5 to better
the old record set by Byron Can
ning of WSC in 1949. The new
mark also erased the Northern
Division standard of 19:57, also
set by Canning in 1949.
Besides taking the 1500-meter
event, Edwards won the 440-yard
free style in 5:01.7 and Saturday
racked up a pair of firsts against
the Cougars in the 220 and 440
free styles.
Despite disqualification in the
400-yard free style relay, the
Ducks swept all the first places
except two against the Vandals.
Don Medley won the 200-yard
breast stroke in 2:41.7 for Idaho's
other triumph.
Washington State wasn’t
swamped so easily Saturday, al
though the score doesn't indicate
it. It was the last event, the 400
yard free style relay that decided
the meet. Jim Allan. Harry Fuller,
Yosh Terada and Orlando Mathias
turned the trick for the Webfoots
with a 3:39.9 time.
DICK BUSEY
Mathias and Terada both turn
ed in double wins against thfc
C o u g a r s. Mathias, a sprinter,
took the SO and 100-yard free
style events while Terada woir
the 180-yard individual medley
and the exhausting 200-yard
breaststroke.
