In that contest, the home hoopsters held a four point lead in the closing moments of the game, but largely due to the efforts of steady Husky forward Mike McCutcheon, the quintet from Seattle pulled into the lead and finally downed the Ducks 79-73. Big Bob Houbregs recorded 33 counters in toe game, and was the main factor in the Washington win. It is Houbregs, who has been breaking almost every exist ing Xorthern Division scoring record, whom the Webfoots v. ill have to stop if they hope to gain even one win in the coming two-game series. Just how it is to be done is the problem now facing Bill Borcher, Oregon's tall cage mentor. Same Points, Both Nights I..i't I ridav and Saturday, the Oregon quintet traveled to Pullman, Washington, for a pair of tilts with Washington State, and they repeated their performance of earlier in the \ < ar by sweeping the series. An odd incident of the series was the scoring of identical tallies in both games by Chet Xoe and Ken Wegner. Xoe led the scoring for Oregon in both games with 21 point totals, while Wegner was runner-up in each con test with 17 After the Husky series this weekend, only two more"tilts are on the slate for the Webfoots. As usual the season tail enders bring the Ducks up against the Beavers of Oregon State, directed by veteran ND mentor Slats Gill. OSC is currently residing in fourth place in the conference with a 4-8 won-loss record. The Staters travel to the Palouse hills this weekend for a scries with Washington State, and if the Beavers lose even one of these games, they have no chance to reach second place bmy the end of the season. Idaho is the only other pos-i sihle contender for the number two slot, and they could not even finish in a tic for the spot if they lose more than one of their remaining four games. Should Idaho win all of its last four contests, Oregon must only come out with two victories to definitely clinch the runner-up position. Although it has been almost two weeks since Oregon’s freshman basketball squad succeeded in turning back the powerful Rooks of OSC, we feel that they still are deserving ol a verbal pat on the back. 1 he l'rosh had been pointing for the w in ever since the start of the season, and the upset was no mere freak of chance. Anderson Stands Out Due credit should be given to all the members of the squad, hut we feel that one member of the group in particular has a 'right to feel proud of his performance in the game. The man we mean is 6-foot, 7-inch Max Anderson, who came through with a 28 point total for the contest while also succeeding in finding a way to partially do away w ith the height advantage held by “Swede” Halbrook, the Rooks’ seven footer. Max solved the problem by developing a lay-in shot which he tossed up and around from behind the backboard and which had the big boy from Corvallis completely stumped. Max looked as smooth as any guard when he faked the Rook giant out of position time after time and drove under the bucket for two points. llalbrook himself dropped in 30 counters, but most of his baskets came on tips and rebounds, for the Frpsh set up a defense which virtually prevented him from ever receiving the ball from the guards. The main cogs in the defense were Kent Dorn in, John Foster, and ('.ary McManus, all of whom took turns playing jumping-jack in an effort to keep the ball out of the Swede’s reach.
