The weekend's Oregon wrest
ling results should give warning
to California grappling teams.
And that means Stanford and
California's Bears — two squads
the Ducks will meet this week
in McArthur Court.
Oregon handed two touring
teams a pair of crushing defeats
—Cal Holy. 21 8 Friday, and Fres
no State, 23-8 Saturday, both in
Mac Court—and laid claim to su-1
premacy over the only two Cali
fornia squads it has met this
year.
The Ducks raised their dual
meet record to 7-3-1 and have high
hopes of upping the results this
coining week against more teams
from the south.
“Cal Poly was a much stronger
team than Fresno State.” said
Webfoot coach Art Keith Sun
day. “And we wrestled better
against Cal Poly than we did
against Fresno State. All the
kids just did a tremendous job.”

The play was different, but the
results were the same.
Oregon’s freshman basketball
team won both games of a
‘ tough" weekend road trip—beat
ing the Oregon Medical and Den
tal School, 64-61 in Portland Fri
day night and winning. 78-65. over
the Linfield College JVs in Mc
Minnville Saturday.
Coach Jerry Anderson was not
particularly pleased with his
team's play the first game.
The Ducklings committed nu
merous ball-control errors and
had to depend on a three-point
play (of sorts) to eke out the
victory.
That play came with the score
tied 61-61 and less than 30 sec
onds remaining. Rick Abraham
son went to the free^throw line
on a one and one situation, made
the first one, but bounced the
ball off the rim on his second
try. Ron Caderette was right
there with the rebound, however,
and stuffed the ball in the hoop
for the two insurance points.
Caderette Hits 17
Those two points gave Cader
ette 17 for the game and earned
him the praise of Anderson (he
was the only one who got any).
“In all departments, he’s really
coming along,” noted the coach.
Defensively, Ron was matched
against probably the most out
standing player on the floor—
Steve Pauly, former standout
guard from Oregon State — and
allowed only 17 points, well be
low Pauly's average, and the same
number that Steve allowed Ron.
Saturday evening, it was cen
ter Glen Campbell’s turn to steal
the show.
The 6-5 prospect from Thurston
hit for 27 points while collecting
13 rebounds—both game highs.
Guard Rick Abrahamson, play
ing before a hometown audience,
(he went to school in McMinn
ville) hit consistently from the
outside and finished with 23.
But it was the team’s play as a
whole that made Anderson opti
mistic.
Anderson “Happy”
Gone were ball-control errors
and the resulting turnovers of
the previous night. The Duck
lings were meeting a team that
specialized in the fast break, and
beat them at their own game.
“Linfield had beaten Oregon
State’s freshmen twice this sea
son on that break, and Oregon
State beat us. So we’re pretty
happy.”
The Ducklings caught the Wild
cats flatfooted several times with
their own version of the break,
and drove in for easy layups.
And the game was not even
close. The last tie was with five
minutes left in the first half when
the score was 19-19. Oregon took
charge from there, led 34-24 at
the intermission break, and never
had less than a nine-point lead
at any point therein.
The Ducklings, however, have
not seen the last of Linfield. They
meet the Wildcats again Friday
evening in Mac Court. The fol

Coach John Sampson has been
somewhat disappointed in recent (
weeks because of the number of j
performers on his freshman gym- r
nasties squad—only four
But in last weekend's meet
with Thurston, Sampson could (
have won the meet easily with
j just two of those four.
The two—Spence Kissler and
Wayne Noecker—between them
took first places in all but one
event (side horse) and led their
team to a 62-39 walloping of
Thurston high school.
Kissler won the still rings and
long horse competition, while
Wayne was taking first in the
floor exercise, high bar, parallel
bars and all-around.
“I’m particularly happy with
Kissler,” grinned Sampson.
‘'That’s the first time he’s ever
competed on the long horse.”

is coming
145 pound Steffen Criner. He con
ed Cal Holy’s Mike Ruiz Friday
night. 3-2, on two riding, time
points and defeated Fresno State's
Krist Jensen Saturday, 12 1
"diner’s come along quite a
ways,” said Keith, "He’s come on
very strong." Ruiz’ loss was the
second in eight starts for the Mus
tang grapper
Defending PAC champion Doug
Robertson also nabbed a couple
of wins. "Robertson looked the
best he’s looked this season.”
Keith said after the 137 pounder’s
6 0 win over Cal Poly’s Tom Miles.
"He’s moving much more now and
has gained more style.”
Curt Scott increased his sea
son’s record to 10-2 with a pair
of decisions. One victory, a 23 8
win over Cal Poly’s Lennis Cow
ell, saw Scott manage four take
downs, two near falls and a pre
dicament.
"Curt just chewed him up,”
was Keith’s obvious remark. "And
that guy was third in the NCAA I
College division last year."
Mitchell Scores Win
Another defending coast cham
pion. Bob Mitchell at 160 pounds,
gained two more victories. He
defeated Cal Poly’s John Miller, j
J 2. scoring five points in the sec- >
and round on a reversal near fall j
combination, and Fresno State's
Mike Gallego, 0 2 1 he loss was
Gallego's first this season in nine
bouts.
"Mitchell did a few good things
Ihis weekend," remarked Keith. !
He really exploded a few times |
and handled Gallego pretty well ”
Bruce Glenn added to his un
beaten string with a decision
and a fall and is now 11-0. He de- j
cisioned Terry Wigglesworth of
Cal Poly—who had a 7-1 record
going into the match—15-3, and
pinned Steve Knsiak of Fresno
State at 2:13.
Although 123 pound Cl r a n t
Henjyoji split in the two meets,
his 10 5 win over the Mustang's
Mike Itemer wns an important
one. Itemer fell behind 5-3 in the
llrst round and Just couldn't pick
up enough points to top the spir
ited Duck grappler,
llenjyoji Tremendous
“Henjyoji did a tremendous
joh,” Keith smiled Friday night.
"That was the best he's wrestled
this season He exploded. worked
hard and kept the pressure on He
made points on hustle ” The win
put Oregon into a 30 lead and
"set the pace" for the remaining
Webfoot wins.
Kent Studehaker, 177 • pound
Duck wrestler, lacked threeand
u half seconds of winning a pair
of bouts. Instead, he came away
with a draw and a decision win
in his first varsity competition
of the year, having sat out the
llrst part of the season with a
broken hand
behind 4 2 Friday in a match
with Poly’s Dean HUger, Stude
haker hit a single lug takedown
at the buzzer and camt away
with a 4 4 draw. He needed only
a little less than four seconds of
riding time to gain the extra rid
irg time point f >: the win
"Studehaker did an excellent
job," commented Keith after the
draw. "He's out of shape but
that spark's there" And Keith
was pleased with the newcom
er's 63 win over Fric Christenson
of Fresno State Saturday. "Stu
debaker's going to help us a lot.”
