    Frosh Take Pair
In Hoop Contests
The Oregon Frosh basketball
team blustcd the scoring gates
wide open over J.he past weekend
as they galloped their way to two
very decisive wins in their first
load jaunt of the season.
Friday night the Ducklings
downed the Grants Pass All-Stars
74-54 and on Saturday evening the
Frosh ran away from the Reeds
port All-Stars 89-47.
Grants Pass fell behind Don
Kirsch's battling crew from the
very start and were never able
to catch up as the Oregons stead
ily increased their lead as the
game progressed. Tffe Frosh held
a 35-26 lead at halftime.
Leading the Ducklings in scor
ing in the first tilt was Bill
Moore, six-foot, three-inch for
ward, with 13 markers. He was
closely followed by Rich Costi
with 12 and Darrell Tyberg with
11 points.
Oregon had an even easier time I
in the Reedsport encounter as j
they romped to a 22-5 first quar-I
ter cushion and were never press- j
ed after this. At halftime the
Frosh were leading 46-20 and by
the end of the third quarter they
held an insurmountable 72-28
lead.
Fhil McHugh led the Ducklings’
scoring column in the second tus
sle with 18 big points and second
ing him were Costi and Larry
Barnes with 12 each and Moore
with 11.
The lads of Don Kirsch have
only two games remaining on their
schedule, both with the Oregon j
State Rooks. The games will be j
played as prelims to the final two
Oregon-OSC varsity tilts on Feb- j
ruary 26 and 27.
Former Duck Star
Now With Beavers
The Portland Beavers of the Pa
cific Coast Baseball League signed
Jim Livesay, former University of
Oregon star, to a one-year con
tract Saturday afternoon.
The Beavers, who have been in
search of young ball players to re
place some of their old standbys,
hope to make use of Livesay as a
catcher.
Livesay was graduated from
Oregon last spring after a very
successful year with Don Kirsch's
Northern Division champion nine.
Livesay batted .325 for the Ducks
in his senior year and was one of
the most highly regarded pros
pects along the Pacific Coast ac
cording to major league scouts
who saw him perform.

wrestling team scored its second
victory of the season over the
Lewis and Clark team, 20-13, and
the Oregon frosh defeated Van
couver high school, 23-18, in a
preliminary match.

Clock over Dave Lowe in the
Heavyweight class, and a decision
by Ralph Staley in the 177 lb.!
class. Earlier in the season Lewis

The feature match was between

UW Swimmers
Down Webfoofs
The University of Washington
swimming team handed the Ore
gon splashers their first loss of the
current season as they swam to a
hard-earned .00-34 decision in the
men’s pool Saturday afternoon.
The Huskies won eight out of
the ten events but the Ducks made
a close meet out of it by picking
up quite a few points on second
and third place finishes.
The only victories for Coach
John Borchart’s Oregon swimmers
occurred in the 60-yard free-style
where Orlando Mathias came
home in front of the pack and in
the 440-yard free-style relay. In
the latter race the Webfoot four
some of Henry Kaiura, Phil Lewis,
Jerry Froebe, and Mathias won a
h< art-stopping neck and neck bat
tle with the Washington team.
Leading the way for the winning
Huskies was Jim Portelance who
won the 100, 200, and 440 yard
free-style events for his team.
For Washington it added one
more victory to a string of wins
that stretch back for many years.
The Huskies haven’t lost a meet
since the end of World War II.

by Washington (Spangler, Jewett,

Beavers, Huskies
Win Hoop Battles
j Oregon State moved into a tie
with the Oregon Ducks and Wash
ington ruined Idaho’s hopes for a
Northern Division championship in
basketball games played over the
last weekend.
Led by the scoring of center
Swede Halbrook, Slats Gill’s Eea
vers had little trouble in breezing
past the Washington State Cou
gars in two straight ball games in
Corvallis’ Gill Coliseum.
Halbrook poured through 31
points Friday night as the Orange
men rolled to a 65-41 victory and
came back Saturday evening to
dunk in 23 more as his team
scored a 65-64 win.
Bennink Hot
Neither game was close as the
lanky Beavers just had too much
| scoring power for their outmanned
! opponents. Flashy Ron Bennink,
WSC forward, played great ball
' for the losers in both games but
his efforts were in vain in this
particular series. Bennink’s 26
counters in tha. Saturday night
game were high for both teams.
W’hile the Beavers were winning
their crucial set from Jack Friel's
hoopers, the Washington Huskies
were busy at work in spoiling the
Idaho Vandal’s last clinging hope
of bringing home a championship
this year.
The lightly regarded and often
trornped quintet of Tippy Dye
turned giant-killer as they trim
med the Idahoans twice, 65-59
and 70-69.
Going into this series with a four
won and four lost mark in league
play the Vandals lost their fifth
and sixth games and in so doing all
but eliminated themselves as far
as crown intentions are concerned.

Their two defeats made a two-way
: battle out of the race between the
two Oregon schools, the Univer
sity of Oregon and Oregon State.
Parsons Leads Huskies
Big pointmaker for the winning
Huskies was center Dean Parson.*?
who hit 20 points the first night
and 16 the second. ^
In the second game the Dyemeo
showed that their poor record H
by no means any indication of
their lack of winning spirit as they
put on a terrific fourth quarter
rally to come from behind a
; twelve point deficit and win out
over their surprised opponents.
The next Northern Division
games will be played next Friday
and Saturday nights on two
, fronts. The Oregon Ducks w, )1
move into Moscow, Idaho for two
| tussles with Chuck Finley’s five.
At the same time the OSC Beavers
will be playing host to dangerous
Washington. In both series them
, is a chance for some big upsets.
