    Ducklings Stage
lough Practice
The Oregon Frosh, with three
straight impressive wins added to
their slate, were put through their
paces Thursday afternoon by as
sistant coach Keith Farnam. Far
**am has taken over the reins
temporarily from Don Kirsch, who
«S head baseball coach, is directing
the early season conditioning of his
-diamond men.
To keep the Frosh from becom
ing stale from lack of competition,
Farnam had his teafn scrimmage
against Phi Delta Theta fraternity.
The Phi Delts proved good competi
tion too. dropping a 49-41 game to
the speedy Ducklings.
Farnam, substituting freely and
forking with different combina
tions, gave the entire Frosh squad
a good workout, finishing up with
Wind-sprints.
The freshmen have two games
left on their ten game schedule,
both with the Oregon State Hooks.
The Rooks and the Frosh have a
split in their previous two meetings
this season and will finish their
series with games at McArthur
Court Friday, February 26 and at
Gill Coliseum the following night.
Both games will precede the Ore
gon-Oregon State varsity clashes
to be played on the same nights.
Waltzing to easy victories over
the Linfield Frosh. the Grants
Pass All-Stars, and the Reedsport
All-Stars in their last three starts,
the Ducklings have bolstered their
record to five games won against
three setbacks.

Duck Tankers
In Two Meets
Oregon's swimming team left
Thursday afternoon for the Inland
Empire and a pair of very import
ant dual swimming meets on the
coming weekend.
Despite their opening Northern
Division loss to the University of
Washington, the Duck tankers still
have high hopes of picking up a
second place finish in the confer
ence this year. This weekend will
go a long way in deciding just what
their chances are for such a finish.
On Friday afternoon John Bor
chardt's team takes on the Wash
ington State Cougars at Pullman
and on Saturday they move over to
Moscow, Idaho for a meet with the
Idaho Vandals.
Making the trip for the Ducks
were Coach Borchardt, and swim
mers John English, Jerry Froebe,1
Yogi Matsushima, Phil Lewis, Hen-,
ry Kiuara, Orlando Mathias, Harry
Fuller, and Bill Gass.
Selvy Shoots
For Records
The National Collegiate Service
Bureau has figured out that Frank
Selvy of Furman, if he stays heal
thy, will set five more major bas
ketball scoring records before the
season is over.
Selvy already holds the record for
most points scored by a major col
lege player in a three-year span.
With seven regular season games
to go, these additional records are
within Selvy's reach: all-time ca
reer point total, scoring average
for a single season, most points in
one season, career scoring average,
and largest two-year scoring total.
Selvy's average for 19 games this
season is 37.7 points. Bob Pettit of
Louisiana State is second with a
32.5 average. Others in the top ten
are Amie Short of Oklahoma City,
Bob SChafer of Villanova, Buzz
Wilkinson of Virginia, Johnny Kerr
af Illinois, Tom Marshall of West
ern Kentucky, Don Schlundt of In
diana, Richie Guerin of Iona, and
Togo Palazzi of Holy Cross.
Determined Webfoot Five
Faces Crucial Vandal Tilts
The University of Oregon
basketball team will face one
of their most crucial series of
the season Friday and Satur
day nights when they take on
the strong Idaho Vandals in a
two game set scheduled for
Moscow, Idaho.
The Ducks, currently tied
with Oregon State for first
place in the Northern Division
championship race, will have to '
vln at least one of the Vanda!
ussles if they are to retain any
lopes of winning the crown this
eason. Two victories would be of
remendous value to the Webfoot
ause.

Teams Split
In their first pair of games at
McArthur Court earlier this year
the two teams split, the Ducks
winning the first contest 81-63 und
the Vandals coming back to take
the second fray by a 60-53 score.
Oregon chances for a sweep of
the two games will depend on
the Ducks ability to hit with a
good percentage of their shots.
Idaho will have a definite height
advantage and will no doubt get
more shots at the basket than
the visiting Webfoots and, there
fore, It will be necessary for Ore
gon to outHhoot them if they arc
to come out on top.
Botcher has indicated that he
will probably stick with the same
starting line-up as he has used in
the last few games. If he does the
first five will consist of Ed Hal
berg and Jerry Ross at the for
ward spots; Max Anderson ut cen
ter; and Barney Holland and Ken
Wegner at the guard posts A iso
due to sec some action will be
Howard Huge, Hay Bell, and Bob
Hawes, the DuckV first line sub
stitutes.
Finley Names Starter*
A probable opening line-up for
Idaho as named by coach Finley
late in the week had Harlan Mel
ton and Tommy Flynn at for
wards; Dwight Morrison at cen
ter; and Bob Falash and Bob Gar
rison in the backcourt.
