It s Not the Same Freshmen Slate Contests By DAVE BARONTI Sports Writer Remember the freshman bas ketball team? The one that up set Oregon Medical-Dental School last weekend? Well, it's no more . . . Or at least not the same. Jim Hannon, the teams top scorer and rebounder, has been declared ineligible by the Pacific Athletic Conference because of some academic technicality not yet clear to coach Jerry Ander son. Without him. the Ducklings Chess, Billiards Set Competition All-campus chess and billiards . tournaments will get under way next week to determine Oregon’s entries into the Region 14 Games tournev, which the school will host Feb. 10-12.

The Beavers have three all • state players (two from Oregon, one from Washington), one all city performer from Los Angeles, and another all-stater, this one from the A-2 ranks, who played for Kiddle. Enough said? There’s more . . . One of those all-staters—Vince Fritz from Portland's Central Catholic—was the most sought - after prepster in Oregon last year. "He’s far and away the best freshman in the state," says An derson. "And outside of UCLA, he is probably the best on the coast." So the Ducklings have their work cut out for them. Ball Control Anderson had planned on run ning with OSU: “but now that Hannon’s gone, we'll have to play ball-control ... I doubt that we’ll get more than just one shot at a time at the basket." The frosh, however, definitely have plans on winning . . . and there's reason to suspect that they might pull it off. The Oregon Medical-Dental School that the Ducklings beat last weekend beat the Rooks ear lier in the year. ‘ But, says Anderson, “to beat the Beavers—especially without Hannon—we're going to have to play our best game this year. I think we can. Everybody seems to think that our season ends after this week.” Hannon, incidentally, will be eligible for varsity competition next year: and will continue to work with the freshman. “He definitely has a future. Even now, he's probably a better rebounder than anyone on the varsity,” said Anderson. Wrestlers Ready Wrestling coach Art Keith, who handles both the varsity and frosh, is also preparing his fresh man for action this weekend. The matmen meet Portland State at approximately 6:30 Sat urday afternoon—or, immediate ly following the freshman basket ball game. “I don't know much about Port land State’s frosh,” said Keith. “Except that they're always good. They’ll give us plenty of compe tition.” And whereas hoop coach Jerry Anderson has lost a performer, Keith seems to have "found” one. “John Fralick, our 160 pounder, has been looking exceptionally well in practice lately," said Keith. “He’s been trying the new moves, and, more important — has been making them work.” “Basically, though, our team has balance.” Freshman swimmers will com pete in the Dick Strite Memorial championships this weekend at the YMCA pool ... a meet that annually draws upward from 400 athletes, and from places as far away as Montana and Colorado. Free Dates TO THE FROSH SNOBALL and MISS OREGON Silver Skates (THE DANCE IS FREE) Semi-formal 9-12 JANUARY 29 Student Union According to coach Don Van Rossen, the prime concern of the Ducklings will he to better in dividual marks "a team trophy, though, would he nice." Principal attention will be fo cused to one Stephen Rond who wasn't even listed on the fresh man swim roster when the year started. But that's only because he was at his home in New Zealand at the time. Since he arrived in Eugene, however, he has broken two fresh men records: both at a meet last week in Portland. Bond, a cousin of Oregon rug by coach Bruce Howe (guess who "sold” him on Oregon?), swam the 1650 yard and 500 yard freestyle events in 19:02 and 5:21 respectively. Other performers to watch, ac cording to Van Rossen, include Stephen Cowden from Santa Cruz, Calif., Mike Dowling, South Eu gene, and Wayne Schwandt, a diver from North Eugene who. according to Van Rossen, is "get ting good enough to be in the middle of the PAC championships next year.” ML Ml TAcJC S250 JIWBLRY STORK tOt?
