Ducks Humble Rainbows, 82-47 By LYNN MUCKEN Sports Writer The University of Hawaii Rain bows were hit by a double dose of Duck last night at McArthur Court, losing 82-47. Not only did the Ducks ser iously threaten to double the score on the outmanned Island quintet, but they hit them with Duck Judo Men In Tourney Win The U of O Judo Club hosted Oregon State Saturday at Mc Arthur Court in a double elimina tion tournament. The Ducks took two first places, two seconds, and one third in the afternoon's competition First place in the lightweight division went to Pat O’Kief of the Ducks The freshman has a first degree brown belt rating Second place went to Judo Club captain Stan Yasumoto, a senior, who holds the second degree black belt rating. Yasumoto lost a decision to Gary Motonaga, a first degree black belt, but later in another match threw Moto naga for second place Motonoga, of OSU. finished in third place after losing to O'kief and Yasumoto In the heavyweight division, freshman Bill Montgomery of the Ducks, a first degree brown belt er, won the meet. Second place went to another Duck. Jim Sindberg, who is a first degree black belt. Sindberg's only loss in the competition came at the hands of Montgomery. Third place went to Floyd Black a junior at the University. ] He made an auspicious debut as , an unranked white belt losing only to Montgomery and Sind berg. Yasumoto and Sindberg were both surprised in the matches by their lower ranking teammates 0*Kief and Montgomery who are only brown belts. In judo the highest rank is the black belt.

The game was only about 10 minutes old when Webfoot Coach Steve Belko began pulling his regulars. Only Jim Barnett of the starters played as much as half the game. But it was the eager reserves, led by Kenny Smith and Jim Jones, who proved to be the show stopper. The reserves unleashed a potent, if sometimes erratic, offense as they ran off a 43 point second half against the inept Rainbow defense. Hawaii led only once, 21, on a short jumper by Bruce O’Neil, a former Roseburg prepper, as the Webfoots opened with their coldest shooting demonstration of the season, missing eight of their first nine shots. Once Dave Kafoury broke the ice with a driving lay-in, how ever, the Ducks couldn’t miss. Two lay-ins by Kafoury, a pair of jumpers by Bob Craven and Nick Jones, and a Barnett steal shoved the Ducks into a 15-4 lead. After that it was no con test. The Webfoots continued the mismatch for the entire first half, consistently scoring a brace of fielders for every solo bucket by the Island squad The second half was almost a solo show by Jim (Seldom) Jones, the spindly-legged hooper with a real Webfoot waddle. He hit five for 10 from the field and con Harlem Trotters, Folk Group on Tap ~The jesters of basketball.

Bob Craven, and Dave Romppanen, ran the Rain bows olT the court. The closest Red Rochas squad could come in the second half was the 18 point margin that panel started with. The game even had its humor ous moments, l.ate in the first half. Jim Jones caught Barnett wide open under the basket and the usually-dcadly forward blew the shot. The ace scorer, amid hoots from the crowd, turned a shade of red rivaled only by San ta’s Noel suit. Later in the second half, little Mike Nicksic brought the crowd off their chairs with his hust ling ball-hawking, only to throw the ball away when he finally reached the front court. Coach Belko. though obviously pleased with the work of his charges, refused to find fault with the Hawaii squad. ‘ You’ve got to admire that type of ball club," he noted "You can't win a game without ammu nition, and they keep going out there night and night." Red Rocha, the former Oregon State player and assistant coach, didn't make excuses, but did point out that his players were pretty tired after a long tour of the mainland In addition he men tioned the youth of his squad, "In two or three years Hawaii will have a pretty good hall club," said the lanky Island mentor. Belko, however, was more in terested in the task facing him this weekend when he takes on California and Stanford in the Bay area "Stanford will come at us with blood in their eyes after those two losses last week end," he noted. "I’d rather face any other ball club in the l’AC than Stanford, They won't shoot 25 per cent for three games in a row.” Commenting on Barnett’s miss ed shot near the end of the first half, Belko said, "Jim (Jones) made a heck of a play. Before the second half began I told him, Jim, you go punch that Barnett on the nose." For the game, the Ducks shot a hot handed .447, including a 472 second half performance The Rainbows registered a frigid .259 Rebounds favored the vic tors by an overwhelming 62 32 margin. The Wcbfoots placed four play ers in the double figure column.

Hon Cad crette and Jim Johnson fired in 18 and 17 points respectively to pace the yearlings EMERALD SPORTS Rocha Heads Lunch Topics By DAVE BARONTI Sports Writer Hula girls, pro basketball, jelly beans, and Oregon State coaches usually aren’t discussed at Ore gon Club luncheons. Monday’s Oregon Club was dif ferent. The reason (except for the jelly beans) was Red Rocha, guest at the luncheon, and head basket ball coach at the University of Hawaii. Red coached both profession ally and at Oregon State before going to Hawaii . . . hence the hula girls, pro basketball and Beaver coaches. ’Tve always been close to Ore gon," the former Corvallis sym pathizer grinned. "But when I come to Eugene, I feel like the black sheep at a family reunion.” "Things are looking better, however. I feel more at home now than I’ve felt here in years Really, I never used to feel safe coming to this place." His experiences with the Ore gon-OSU rivalry were nearly al ways pleasant, however. In fact, he had only complementary su perlatives to describe the situa tion. “There is no better rivalry in the country,” he said. “Fierce competition with good sportsman ship—that’s been my experience with it.” The business at hand, however, was his basketball team—and he was not overly optimistic. “We're short and we’re slow,” he said. Then, before anyone asked it, he answered a question. “We’re playing this kind of competition mainly because it helps our recruiting program That’s really the first thing an outstanding prospect wants to know . . . who we’re playing. Basketball players, believe it or not, are vain. They want recogni tion.” “Wait until we get a good team,” he cracked. “Everybody will want to play Hawaii—as long as its an away game.” Oregon coach Steve Bclko could not be expected to share Rocha’s pseudo-defeatist attitude. And he didn’t. “Hawaii gave Washington a go of it for about fifteen minutes,” he testified . . . “and unless we’re at our best, they can beat us. That goes for any team.” The Oregon mentor expressed more concern over the two teams the Ducks meet this weekend— Stanford and California. Stanford, Hockey Meeting Set A hockey orientation meeting will be held Wednesday at 7 p.m. in the Student Union. Purpose of the meeting is to find out how many are interested in participating in the program. This year, according to George Wardinski, the hockey team will have financial support from the Student Union.

"They're (Stanford) the same team that beat UCLA," he noted "Besides, they won't be shooting 25 per cent forever.” He also reaffirmed his view that the present I’AC basketball race is a healthy one, predicting ; that the race will last at least until "Valentines Day.” "Despondent” freshman basket ball mentor Jerry Anderson, in his first year coaching at the U of O, was also at the luncheon along with several of his play ers, whom he introduced "We lost all our freshmen from last year's team,” he moaned. “This is a rebuilding year." He does have a few real prob lems . . . not the least of which is height. His tallest player is 6-5 Neither have the traditional "coaching ailments” by-passed him. "You have all heard about coaches problems—heart trouble, ulcers," he told the club "Well, I'm here to verify every bit of it." "One of my principal prob lems.” Anderson concluded, “is that 1 have a tendency to expect too much of my players.” Bill Bowerman, who spoke next, didn’t ijuite agree "I say these boys expect too much of us coaches . and that goes for the parents ami athletic directors, too." One of Bowerman's trackmen 500 yard runner Jere Van Dyke —won his race at the Portland Invitational Track meet over the weekend “He’s coming along," noted the coach Swimming coach Don Van Bos sen reported the results of his jelly tiean experiment over the weekend The result, he said, was the "tremendous beating" of Washington "There were kids who bettered their best previous mark by sev eral seconds,” said Van Rossen.
