EMERALD SPORTS WEBFOOTJWNTS ., . Standings Change By RANDE WILMARTI1 Sports Editor The triumverate atop the AAWU basketball race should tumble to a dual affair this weekend—if things go the way form dictates. But form hasn’t followed exactly the way it should this year witness the three wav deadlock in the PAC standings now with UCLA Stanford and Oregon State all owning 3-1 marks. And the Beavers meet the Indians Saturday at Stanford, while the Bruins travel north for battles with Washington and Washington State Form has it that a team should win the OSU-Stanford contest and UCLA should win a pair of games in Washington, thus leaving the Bruins and the winner of the game in California together m the conference lead. But there’s a trio of teams that will be trying to upset the form charts_the two Washington squads and Oregon’s own Ducks. Oregon. 2 2 and in a fourth-place tie, meets both Stanford and California this weekend in wnai could determine the Webfoot’s ability to stay in the thick of the PAC race. The Ducks have a four game winning string and a two game AAWU streak—after two wins over WSU and the Huskies before the hoop recess a couple of weeks ago—behind them and will be looking to improve their PAC standings. And WSU and Washington, both 1-3, will be hoping to slow the Bruin attack on their home courts. But an Oregon win in the small. 2,700-seat Stanford Pavillion — notorious for being tough on visit ing teams—over the Indians, a team that has already beaten the previously ranked Bruins in the same building, would be mighty tough. Steve Seiko's Ducks would do well with a split in the two game series. It could be a time, though, for an upset—the squad is loose after winning in its last /our times out and Jim Barnett, Nick Jones. John Pinkstaff and STEVE BELKO His Ducks 2 2 fci PAC Bab Craven all appear to be pliy ng in the best form they nave an year. If Oregon can’t knock a team out of the loop lead, though, it's a certainty that either OSU or Stanford will do it to themselves. Second Time Around . . . The contest Saturday between the two squads will be an interest ing rematch of the title tilt in Portland’s Memorial Coliseum during the Far West Classic. OSU won that time out, 62-46, as the Beavers played control tactics throughout the game. Whether Stanford has the* Oregon State offense figured out or not might decide who will be challenging UCLA for the PAC lead. Notes from the AAWU . . . Tom Hansen, PAC publicity director, wrote in a recent release of the conference’s building program: . . the AAWU is currently undergoing a dynamic building program from Los Angeles to Pullman to provide its growing stu dent bodies with better facilities for recreational, competitive and spectator use. Skipping lightly over the projects completed or about to get under way, WSU has new lights on intramural and practice fields; Washington plans a stadium addition and an intramural-PE building; Oregon State will build a stadium addition before the 1966 season; Oregon has received $700,000 of a needed million dollars to build a new’ stadium; Stanford is near the go” state on a new pavillion; UCLA has its beautiful Pauley Pavillion and a new Athletic Department building.” Swimmers Marks Fall . . . Swimming marks in the conference are up (or down, as the case may be) from the recordings listed last year at this time. Before last week’s meets, ten of the 11 events had better marks when compared to the timings recorded a year ago at the same point. USC’s Roy Saari led in three of the events while UCLA had the best times for the two relays: Event 1965 Mark 1966 Mark 400-yard medley relay 3:49.5 3:43.8 400-yard freestyle relay 3:20.2 3:19 0 200-yard freestyle 1:50.0 1:47.5 50-yard freestyle 21.8 22.4 200-yard individual medley 2:05.7 2:02.7 Diving 254.75 292.10 200-yard butterfly 2:13.4 2:01.9 100-yard freestyle 49 2 49.1 200-yard backstroke 2:09.3 2:07.9 500-yard freestyle 5:10.4 5:01.0 200-yard breaststroke 2:18.3 2:17.5 USED PE EQUIPMENT will be sold by FROSH 200 • TENNIS SHOES WILL GO AT $1 AND $2 A PAIR • HANDBALL GLOVES WILL GO AT $1 AND $2 A PAIR • SWEAT PANTS ? • SHORTS ? • SWIMMING TRUNKS ? • SOCKS ?
