Ducks Face Stanford in Pair
The Stanford Indiana and the
Oregon Ducks meet tonight in
the first of a pair of basketball
games. The second game will be
played Saturday. The series
marks the start of a long home
stand at McArthur Court for the
Ducks who will play nine of their
next ten there.
Stanford comes to Oregon with
a 5-5 record. The Indians’ most ■
recent game was a 53-52 victory
over California earlier in the
week. The Indians won even
though the game was played on j
Cal's home floor.
Stanford has also gained a;
59-56 victory over nationally- ■
ranked Utah in the opening week 1
of the season.
For the first time in many |
years, the Indians have plenty
of strength on the boards. Their
front line consists of 6-3 John
Hendry. 6-8 John Windsor, and
6-7 center Mike Ledgerwood. Led
gerwood played his high school
basketball at Grant High in Port
land.
Oregon coach Steve Belko was
a little uncertain as to his start
ing lineup Thursday. “Glenn
Moore and Charlie Warren will
open at center and forward, but
I haven’t decided for sure on the
other three positions,” said the
affable Webfoot mentor.
Denny Strickland, 6-5 senior,
may move up to a forward spot,
opposite Warren, for the Stan
foi-d series. This would leave the
guard spots open to veterans
Butch Kinipton and Leon Hayes.
Johnny Mack, a fast-improving
sophomore, will also see some
action against the Indians.
Belko was more specific on be
ing back home after playing sev
en out of nine on the road. “We're
glad to be back,” Belko remark
ed. “and I'm sure it isn’t going to
hurt us any to play on our own
floor for a while.”
Tipoff time for both games is
S p.m. The Oregon Frosh will
play, in preliminary games, a
gainst the Oregon College JV's on
Friday and against Sweet Home
AAU on Saturday. Both Frosh
games start at 6 p.m.
Duck Wrestlers
Face Utah, WSU
The University of Oregon
wrestlers face two of the better
teams in the West this weekend
at McArthur Court. On Friday,
the University of Utah grapplers
will be in action and on Saturday,
it will be Washington State. Both
meets will follow the Stanford
basketball games and will last
to about 10:45.
THK UTE mat squad, coach
ed by Marv Hess, placed second
in the powerful Skyline Confer
ence last year behind Wyoming.
Utah has two returning confer
ence champions— -Doug Bingham
at 130 and Frank Hankin at 157.
Hankin is a two-time conference
champion. The Utes also have
Art Galvez. 123. who placed third
to the conference a year ago.
Washington State, second in
the PCI last year, has practically
their entire team returning. The
Cougars boast a twin-brother
act. They are Bryce and Bruce
Cook who wrestle at 130 and 137.
Other outstanding Cougar
wrestlers include: Bill Berry, a
two-time PCI champion who was
, an All-Coast guard in football
‘in 1959; Larry Olson, twice run
| ner-up in the PCI at 157; Jerry
i Campbell. 2nd in the PCI at 167: ;
and Jerry Conine, 2nd last year in j
the PCI at 177.
COACH MIKE REI TER is not
optimistic about the Ducks' chan- i
ces against these two strong
teams. “We’re badly hurt by eli- j
gibility losses at 167 and 177. In
! fact, we may even have to for
; feit these two weights this week
: end,” Reuter disclosed Thursday.
I
Reuter listed Oregon's prob
able lineup as: Dennis Wisby or
Ken Thayer at 123; Jerry Mese
cher or Tim Latta at 130; Joe
McFarland at 137; Chester Scott
or Lynn Mathews at 147; Don
Hoiness at 157; and Garry Sten
sland at heavyweight. Stensland
placed second in PCI competi
tion last year, while McFarland
and Hoiness placed third.
