Webfoots Begin Drills
For Oregon State Tilts
After splitting a pair of games
with the Washington Huskies last
Weekend, the Oregon Ducks began
workouts Monday afternoon for
their final series of the season J
with the Oregon Stutc Heavers.
When the Oregon eourtsters j
take to the maple boards this Fri
day and Saturday nights against
their cross-state rivals it will mnrk
the most crucial basketball aeries
the two teams have played In
many years,
Oregon State needs only one win J
in the two game set to cinch the i
Northern Division championship!
while two Oregon victories would
result in the Webfoots and Bea
vers ending in a tic for the title
and would make a play-off nec
essary to see which team would j
represent the league In the N. C. I
A. A. playoffs next month.
In preparation for the all-im
portant tussles coach Bill Borcher
of the Ducks ran his team through
an extensive workout Monday in
hopes he. can get the Oregons in I
tip top shape, both physically and j
mentally, before Friday evening.
The team spent much of the
evening in planning offensive and
defensive maneuvers, which it is
hoped will baffle Slats Gill's giant;
hoopers into making some costly
mistakes.
Also occupying some of theI
practice time was a full court
scrimmage which gave the Ducks
a chance to work on their fast
break.
Both games this weekend are
sell-outs and have been for quite
some time.
