UO Web foot Wrestlers Edge PSC Vikings DOUG ROBERTSON Gain* Decision for Oregon Grapplers Duck Swim Team Crushes Beavers By GORDON ROSENBERG Sports Writer Oregon’s swimming team hack eft up the basketball team’s de feat of Oregon State by dropping the Heaver swimmers at Corvallis Saturday. .13-42 Trailing itl-4 after three events. the Ducks started a strong come back that saw them win six of the final eight events to win going away "We really had to scramble for our lives," stated Oregon coach Don Van Hossen OSU delighted the home fans by sweeping the first three events Oregon Ruggers Edge UBC, 9-6 A strong defense and excellent kicking in crucial situations brought the Oregon rugby team a 9-6 victory Saturday, its first win over the University of British Columbia since the two began play four years ago. Coach Bruce Howe summed up the game, saying. “Every time UBC got something started, some one came up defense from no where to stop them." The teams were tied at half time, 6-6, on two 40-yard penalty kicks by Barry Ward of Oregon anil two short kicks by Mike Judd of UBC. The only points in the second half came midway through the period when Warren Hamill scored on a short run. UBC's greatest threat was stopped short of the goal line by an illegal forward pass with only 30 seconds remaining. Howe praised the work of the" whole team, singling out wings Hamill and Dave Docharty as be ing “outstanding” in the upset victory. Scores of previous games have been "fairly large in favor of UBC,” according to the coach. The Thunderbirds won the last game, 20-5. The victory gave Oregon the lead in the Northwest Rugby conference with a 1-0 record. UBC tied Oregon State in its first game last Thursday and it now has a 0-1-1 slate, good for third place. Next Saturday Oregon faces the University of Washington in Se attle, then the Ducks return home to play Western Washington the following week. Both are confer ence games. Only Scott Taylor’s second in the 200-yard freestyle and Dennis Mc Gowan's third in the 60-yard free style marred OSU’s perfect start. Doug Huey, Oregon State’s team leader, breezed to first and Dale Vaughn took second for the Beavers in the QB-yard freestyle. But the main factor in OSU’s quick start was an upset in the 400-yard medley relay. All-American breaststroker Jer ry Wille led the Beavers to a tight victory in this event (3 58 7). Oregon finished at 4:00.1. "Wille’s effort won the medley for them,” stated Van Rossen. “He swam an outstanding leg.” Oregon Takes Over At this point, Oregon s wreck ing crew, led by Monty Holding, Jud Shutts and Dale Wood, took over the meet. Holding performed a feat of endurance by swimming, and scor ing highly, in three individual events. The Vancouver, British Colum bia, junior took firsts in the 266 yard individual medley and 200 yard butterfly, and second in the 500-yard freestyle for a total pro duction of 13 points. “Monty looked real strong for the first two events, but he was kind of tired by the third,” joked Wood, senior captain of the Ducks. Wood captured first place in the 500 yard freestyle in 5:27.4. Hold ing, tired or not, was the runner up in 5:34.6. "Monty did a fine job in swim ming with little rest between events,” praised Van Rossen. Sprinters Prevail The sweep of first and second by Wood and Holding moved Ore gon into the lead for the first time, 42-37, with only two events left. After Wille took first over Ducks Mason Smith and Scott Volker in the breaststroke, Ore gon led 46-42, going into the final event. Oregon’s crack sprinters nab bed the seven points for first in the sprint relay and Van Rossen’s boys had defeated arch rival Oregon State, 53-42. Don Smith, Pete Shutts, Bruce Hess, and Don MacKenzie covered the 400 yards in 3:29.3 for Ore gon. OSU finished in 3:31.4. Also receiving praise from Van Rossen was sophomore Jud Shutts, who won the 200-yard backstroke and finished second (Continued on fo</e 7) By RANDE WILMARTII Sports Editor McArthur Court must have had a bad day Saturday. After producing one thriller in the afternoon when Steve Boi ko's Oregon hoop team edged Oregon State, 61-80, in the final minutes, it took just five hours for another hectic battle to be gin inside the building. ' And this one also went down to the wire—with the Ducks win ning again. Art Keith’s Oregon wrestling squad, railing Portland State by a 14-6 score with only three matches remaining, went on to post a 19-14 win for its fifth win in seven starts. In fact, counting Friday night’s 30-4 win over Oregon College of Education in Mac Court, the PSC victory was the fourth win in a row for the Webfoots. With those three bouts left and an eight point deficit to make up in order to edge PSC, the Ducks needed all wins. They got ’em. “Tougher Team’’ Bob Mitchell cut the point spread by five with a fall at 7:02 of his 167 pound match, Bruce Glenn pushed the Ducks into a two point lead with another pin 44 seconds into his 177-pound bout and heavyweight Bob Law re n c e wrapped the meet up with a 8-0 decision over J i m Moore. While Keith termed the OCE squad Friday as not being “real tough,” he had a different view Saturday after the PAC match. "We knew we were up against a tougher team,” he said, ‘‘and the kids played it a little more con servative.” And the takedown totals point this out. Oregon gained 14 TDs in the OCE match, but only five in the Viking contest. "The takedowns were excel lent," said Keith after his team had soundly beaten OCE. "Every man actually picked up his man except Glenn. It shows the re sults of some practice.” But his IM Schedule Basketball 3:50 Court 40, Sherry Ross A vs. Stafford A.

Glenn was probably the most impressive with two falls to his credit, improving his rec ord to 4-0. Three of those four wins have now been pins. Glenn doesn’t take much time to end the match after he’s gain ed a pinning combination. While leading OCE’s Lyle Telgenhoff, 12-1, at the start of the second round, Glenn earned a reversal and a fail all in 13 seconds. And he caught PSC’s Jim Ried enour off an opening round take down on the edge of the mat for the pin, all in 44 seconds. Curt Scott, the Duck 130 pounder, won two more matches and kept his record clean with seven wins and no defeats. One of his victories was a fall as he pinned OCE’s Mike Vego at 4:05. "He’s doing real fine,” said Keith of Scott. “He’s coming along real well.” Keith was impressed with the performance of Mitchell over the weekend.
