Webfoots Wind Up Season Against Oregon State Five By BOB HAGIST Emerald Sports Writer Two games left. The two biggest games of the year for Oregon’s basketball team. This weekend the Ducks hope to knock off the NCAA-bound Ore gon State Beavers. A sweep over arch-rival OSU would be a highly satisfying way for the Webfoots to finish the season. A sweep from the Beavers would give the Ducks a 13-13 won-loss record. Oregon would al so win the Chancellor’s trophy which is presented each year to the winner of the season’s series between the two schools. "Discipline” Belko said has ac counted for the four Duck vic tories in the last six games. The Oregon coach hopes this carries I over into the weekend series with I the Beavers.

The Ducks swept to ten straight meet victories last sea son, and ran off with the top honors in the NCAA finals held in Eugene.. Once again the Ducks look as if they will be one of the best in the country. Although, the Web foots have lost Dyrol Burleson, national collegiate record hold er in the mile and two-mile, and Jerry Tarr, high hurdles champ ion, the Ducks will be able to take up the slack with their great depth in the distances, and Mel Renfro in the hurdles. STRENGTH in the field events is the term to describe the Duck's team. With Dave Steen, the na tion’s latest 60-footer, leading the Webfoots in the field events. Steen turned in his best ever with a hefty 61-5^ toss in the Oregon Indoor Invitational Meet. Supporting Steen is a quar tet of javelin entries, all with tosses bettering the 200-foot mark. Ron Gomez, a lefty, tops the Web foot javelin parade with a 244-1 Webfoot Ruggers Grid For Spring Contests Oregon’s ruggers are prepping for a busy spring vacation sched ule after their come-from-behind 8-5 win over the highly tooted Vancouver Meralomas last Sat urday.

THE WEBFOOTS wil have their perennial power in the distances. Keith Forman, with a sub four minute mile to his credit (3:58.3), and Vic Reeve and Archie San Ro mani. both capable of four-minute miles this year, head the Duck’s distance hopes. In the middle distances, the Cal ifomia cinder crew has a slight edge. Dave Archibald, fourth in the AAU as a freshman, has a 46.3 clocking in the 440, and also a 21.3 time in the 220. Duck Mermen Nab Second Place Spot Oregon’s swimmers wrapped up the 1962-63 season by taking sec ond place in the Far West Champ ionships held in Seattle last week end.

Oregon State was third with 49 points, Idaho was next with 45V2 points and Washington State finished in the low spot with 38 points. “We placed more men in the finals than any of the other schools (20 of 22 competitors made the finals), but we couldn’t take the first places,” Coach Don Van Rossen said.

Even with this scoring surge Belko doesn't be lieve that OSU will be as easy to score against as the other teams. 'They’re a fine defensive team.” said the Duck coach, "and we'll have to move the ball a little longer to get the shots we want. Our kids have learned to discip line themselves extremely well, however, and I’m confident we’ll have the patience to play for the real good shot this weekend.” Oregon will be counting heavily on the frontline of Moore. Jones and Johnson when they square olT against M£1 Counts, Terry Baker and the rest of the Aggies Friday and Saturday. Both games start at 8:00 The Friday game is at Eugene and the Saturday game at Corvallis. Three Oregon seniors will be playing their last games for the lemon and the green Glenn Moore. John Mack, and Tom Tut tle will be closing out their ca reers this weekend. Oregon State has run up an im pressive record this season and has been selected to play in the NCAA tournament. The tall Beav ers looked very good at times and at others they seem plagued by the same inconsistency that both ered the Ducks through mid season. Seven-foot Mel Counts tops the Beavers in scoring with a 20.3 average through 24 games. When Counts is hot OSU is tough to beat When he has an of! night the Aggies are not so unbeatable The rest of the starters for Slat Gill’s squad will be four of these five; Terry Baker, Frank Peters, Steve Pauly, Jim Jarvis, and Jim Kraus. Oregon is expected to start Moore at center, Jones and John son at the forwards, and Mack and sophomore Elliott Gleason at the guards. Oregon scoring is paced by the front line. Jones, (recently pick ed on the UPI All-Coast 3rd team), leads the way with a 14 5 average, Moore is second with 14.0 and then Johnson with a 13.4 average.
