kies' “sixth first stringer.” Next
year he will probably have the job
of trying to fill Bob Houbrcgs’
shoes, which shouldn't be too hard
for the Huge::.' boy who has size
17 feet.
Another record that statisli
cians might add to the list al
ready amassed by Houbregs might
be “most times high point man.”
Only four times has a teammate
outscored "Mr. Hooks” this year.
Ilunner-up to Houbregs in the
high point lamcrs are .Mike Mc
Cutchen and Joe t'ipriaro. Each
has captured second place laur
als nine times.
Probable starters for Oregon
will be Ed Halberg and Kieth
Famani, forwards: Noe, center;
and Barney Holland and Ken Weg

For the Huskies, the first team
will be McCutchen and Doug Mc
MeClary, forwards; Houbregs, cen
ter; and Charlie Koon and Cipti

The games will be broadcast lo
cally over radio station KERG,

Lo3 Angeles, Feb. 19 Washing
ton Center Bob Houbregs is mak
ing a shambles of Northern Divi
sion scoring records with his dead
ly hook shot, but three other "big
men” are giving him a stiff battle
for top honors around the back
boards, statistics showed today.
Houbregs has averaged 28.1
points a game to lead his nearest
rival by 121 points, according to
figures from the Pacific Coast
Conference Commissioner’s office.
But in the wide-open battle for re
bounds, he's no better than third
at the moment. Leading the pack
is Oregon Center Chet Noe with an
average of 1-t 2 a game, followed
by Idaho's Dwight Morrison with
13.2, Houbregs, 12.2, and Doug
MeClary, also of Washington, 12.1
Noe Second
Noe is second to Houbregs in
scoring with IS points a game with
Idaho's- Hartly Kruger third at
17.6. Both appear likely to top the
old Division scoring record of 208
points which Houbregs already ha
shattered.
Houbregs' shooting is both rapid
and accurate, the statistics show.
He's fired 223 times in 12 Norlh
, ern Division games and has con
nected on 127 for a classy 56.9 per
; cent average. Next in line are Bob
! Edwards, Oregon State, 50 per
