    Cellar-Stuck Huskies
Visit Webfoot Quint
Still smarting from last week
end's two defeat* at the hands
of the league-leading Oregon
State quintet, Tippy Dye's basc
menl-bound Washington Huskies
will attempt to regain their ear
ly-season utricle against Bill lior
fhcr’a second-place Oregon team
In a Northern Division series to
night and Saturday at MacAr
thur Court.
I’leked by most observers an
Nil title tlireata along with
OMC, the Huskies have manag
ed to win only two of their six
conference game*. Four of the
losses have come against the
Beavers, the first time In .11
years of basketball play be
tween the sehools that a sweep
has been scored by either side.
Dye'a five trounced Idaho and
WSC once each, only to lose
close decisions the following
night.
Oregon, rated for a lower fin
ish before the season, Is solidly
entrenched In second, sporting a
5-3 mark. The Webfout losses
have come aganist the WSC Cou
gars and Oregon Htute. The
Beaver games saw the Ducks
losing by two points the first
night and three the next.
Though mired in the cellar
now, Dye still has hopes for a
high finish. He announced earlier
this week that his team had a
tough road ahead to climb out of
the cellar, but that he thought
"we have the ability and the
desire to do it."
hu's main hopes In the Ore
gon series appear to rest with
his veteran and potentially
high-scoring front line of Dean
Parsons, dim t'oshow and Karl
Vocgtlln. The 6’“” Parsons, a
product of Kugene high school,
tops the Huskies in scoring
from his center spot, boasting
134 points in eight ND tilts, a
Iflil average.
Rounding out the first five
with Parsons will probably be
Coshow and Vocgtlln at forwards
and Doyle Perkins and Ron Olsen
I at the guard slots, Regular guard
Jerry Johnson is out with a knee
injury Incurred in the Washing
ton State series two weeks ago.
’ The 6’4" Olsen haa been seeing
action in his place.
Coshow and Voegtlin are high
ly-rated by opposing coaches.
Standing 6’6" and 6'4" respect
ively. they have 10.3 and 0.8
scoring averages thus far. Both
are juniors and saw considerable
action last season, Voegtlin mak- i
ing the all-Northern Division sec- ,
ond team. Perkins stands 6 feet.!
and is a Junior regular from last
year.
Oregon reached a season’s
peak in points scored in the
two Brigham Young games
last weekend, going over the
80-point level each night. Of
course, It was the Dtiek’s big ,
gun, Jim Doscutoff, who eame
through with 35 and 24 points
to lead the way.
Borcher has been getting good
balance from his first five in
scoring, and the performance of
Max Anderson in netting 24 the
second night against BYU was
[ encouraging. He will probably
get a starting berth against the
Huskies, along with either Ray
Bell or Jerry Ross. Howard Page
and Phil McHugh will remain at
guard. *
In last season's games at Eu
gene, the Webfoots edged the
Huskies in a thriller 77^76, and
then came back to take an easy
64-48 win. The UW five won the
first game played in Seattle by
a 63-59 count with the Ducks
coming back for a 67-59 finale
win.
Oregon will travel to Seattle
; for the final two Washington
j games on Feb. 18 and 19.
.JIM C'OSIIOW will l«*at the starting forward spot tonight for
the Washington Huskies when Oregon elashes with Coach Tippy
Dye’s cellar-dwelling club in McArthur court.
Frosh to Face
Marion Motors
Don Kirsch’s Ducklings will
be* looking for their first win
after five defeats tonight, as they
meet Marion Motors, a Salem
AAU club, at McArthur court,
Saturday night they take on
Clark junior college’s powerful
Penguins. Both games are
scheduled for 5:45.
Clark is paced by their 6' 5"
center, Fletcher Frazier, who
dumped in 24 points in the Pen
guins' 91-61 drubbing of Yakima
JC Wednesday night.
Clark Trio Hits
Three other Penguins scored
in double figures in that game.
Forward Fred Dills collected 14,
Vein Coulter got 13, and Ken
Boydstun got 12.
Clark is league leader in the
Washington Junior College con
ference and up to Thursday
night, when it met Wenatchee
JC, it had only one defeat on
Its conference record. Oregon
State's Rooks defeated the Pen
guins in a tight game earlier in
the season.
Kirsch will open with his usual
starting five, including Paul
Tuchardt and Dave Wanaka at
the forwards, Hal Duffy at cen
ter and Wendy Rasor and Wimp
Hastings in backcourt. Tuch
ardt and Wanaka are one-two
in individual s coring, with
Tuchardt averaging 15 points
per-game and Wanaka 9.
Frosh Reserves Shine
Top reserves have been Mar
tin Swan and Bob Faris, for
wards and Bob Ayre and Don
Delbon. guards. Kirseh will prob
ably also call on Ted Tenney and
Lowell Slick, two little-used
ball players who nearly saved
the game for the Ducklings
against Fernandez Loggers last
Saturday.
Drills this week have concen
trated on defense, where the
Frosh seem to be weakest. Kirseh
was bothered with the “defensive
lapses" displayed by his squad
in the recent games, but thinks
the workouts with the varsity
reserves have had a good effect.
Kirseh complimented Tenney
and Slick for their performances
in Saturday’s 68-66 heartbreaker,
ar.d was pleased with the second
half comeback on the part of the
whole squad. The Frosh came
from a 37-27 halftime margin to
tie the score in the dying min
utes. Duffy's rebound work also
came in for a word of praise. The
6' 6" center snared 20 recover
ies against the Loggers.
The Ducklings now have a 2-5
record on the season.
