victory; on Saturday night South
ern California took advantage of
a weak-shooting Webfoot squad
to post a 73-f>2 triumph.
The twin-defeats sent the

It was (he second straight
victory for the Bruins over the
Ducks. Last week UCLA stop

A Webfoot zone defense at the
opening of the second half halted
the Bruin surge in the opening
minutes of the second half but
superb outside shooting by the
Uclans finally paid off and Ore
gon could never get closer than
eight points from the lead.

USC 73, Oregon 52
Bouncing back from a Friday
night loss to Idaho, Southern Cal
put on a white-hot shooting ex
hibition Saturday night to tame
the Ducks 73-52.
Forrest Twogood's young but
improving Trojans hit on a tre
mendous 52 percent of their shots
while Oregon could do only half
as good 26 per cent in the
first half.
The game was close only for
the first three minutes, but
with the score tied 3-3, Monte
Gonzales streaked in for three
successive layins to put the
Trojans in the load 8-3 and
they were never headed there
after.
Again Franklin and Duffy car
ried a big load leading the Web
foot scorers and rebounders. The
one-two scoring combination
j combined for 18 consecutive |
points for the Ducks at one point
in the first half.
Duffy ^topped Oregon in the
scoring column with 12 points;
Franklin followed closely with 11.
The youthful ball-hawking
Trojans ran away with the
game after leading 36-25 at
halftime. Sophomore Jim White
scored 19 points to lead the
Troy; Gonzules followed with
14. Another second-year stu
dent Jim Hanna got 12 and
i used his 6-7 frame to great ad
vantage on the boards.
Steve Belko's Webfoots return
I to McArthur Court this Saturday
for a single-game against Wash
ington’s disappointing Huskies.
