"We gut them in foul trouble
and then lost it on the free
throw line It looked like they
had double vision out there ’’
Exasperation was written on
Steve Belko's face as his post
game statement echoed down a
nearly deserted hail below Gill
Coliseum after Oregon State had
run away from visiting Oregon
5tJ-4d Saturday afternoon
OSlr s uitimaie 12-point mar
gin was actually insignificant,
far the gap built up only in the
final four minutes of the con
tst, after UO had already blown
it.
The horrendous foul shooting
began with 0:43 remaining on
the clock in State's barn-like
fieidhouse Billy Gaskins—shoot
ing on a one-and-one situation—
tried to relax, set himself ano
arched his firs! free throw at
tempi toward the basket The
ball hi! the rear of tbe rim and
bounded upward as tec bodies
wnthed with upstretched arms
beneath the backboard
Oregon wasn't oui of conten
non however. F ourteen second!
later forward Ken Smith snap
ped in two free tosses to cut
the Beavers lead to jus! one.

After Gary F reeman scored
on a long jumper and Jefi Kuter
hit a free throw. Oregon's Kick
Abrahamson failed to close the
gap—missing on his one-and-one
opportunity
With 6.30 to piay and Oregon
State leading 46-41, Smith fell
victim to Oregon’s sudden
phobia His first of possibly two
free throws fell short.
Hartman Excels

To BYU, Utah

The University of Oregon
swimming squad ran into prob
lems in a pair of is eekend
meets
The Duel* were edged by
Brigham Yoang University Fn
day. 5J>-54. and belted by the
University of Utah Saturday
68-36
Friday's double dual" meet
saw the Ducks wallop a third
competitor, the University of
Denver, 82-31.
Playing a major role in the
disappointing Oregon showing,
according to coach Don Van
Rossen. was the vast altitude
difference
Lack of oxygen definitely af
fected Oregon’s swimmers.
Some team members were ill
throughout the stay, and the
atmospheric change especially
affected competitors in middle
and long distance events. In
many cases Oregon entries led
for much of the race, but were
overtaken near the finish.
Bright spots in Oregon’s show
ing against BYU were Denny
Hartman, who won the one and
three meter diving events. Edd
Wemple and Don Peterson, who
r
placed one-two in the 209-yard
breaststroke, clocking of 2 23 2
and 2:23.9 respectively. Bob Boy
er who won the lOciyard free
style even with a 49. i, and the
400-yard freestyle relay unit of
Bob Jensen. Jay Greening. Joe
Roster and Boyer, whose 3:23 4
was good for a first place -
Dennis Hartman turned in
one of his all-time finest show
ings against Utah On the one
meter board he compiled a total
score of 281.35 A score of 240
is considered excellent.
Wemple and Jensen again
finished ahead of the pack in
200-yard breastroke Their win
mng times were 2:24.9 and
2:257
Bob Boyer took the 50 - yard
freestyle event in 22.5 and
teammate Jay Greening took
second in 22 8 They defeated
defending W.A.C. champ, Don
Gray
Two Utah swimmers register
ed double wins Rich Kittle cap
tured the 100- and 200 - yard
freestyle races, and Dave Fuhri
man the 200 butterfly and 200
individual medley. Fuhriman
overtook and passed UO’s out
winded Jud Shutts in the final
25 yards of the individual med
ley race

The i roafa will meet the Lin

final three minutes to achieve
their 56-46 victory
Oregon's failure to convert
desperately needed free throws
was not the sole reason for this
defeat however Poor floor
shooting throughout the game
kept the Ducks from ever tak
mg a commanding lead UO hit
an icy .318 on the afternoon
Oregon might have perma
nently crippied their rivals dur
ing the middle stages of the
first half Abrahamson scored
on n 25foot jump shot from the
right side, and Jim Henry fol
lowed with a lay-in after taking
a pass from Gaskins Suddenly
Seiko's team had mov ed out to
a 17-10 lead
But from that point until in
termission, Oregon State out
scored the Webfoots 134, prin
cipally on the strength of pre
cision outside shooting by 64
guard Vince Fritz.
Fritz gave OSU a 23-21 half
time lead after Abrahamson had
tied it at 21-all with a 20-footer
from the left side With 1:06 re
maining, Valenti screamed "one
shot, only one," and the
Beavers responded by stalling
until Fritz corded a jumping
with three seconds to plav for
23 21
If the Ducks had not given
fourth with so horrible a shoot
ing exhibition, they might have
easily maintained their onetime

Saturday on the football prac

Neither Cal, nationally rank

Duck* now 1-1 1. could wore
touchdown*. Fullback* Peter
(Joel Haven for Oregon and
l-es William* for Cal. both ac
counted for their respective
team*’ three points on penalty
kicks
Oregon dominated the plays,
but u as unable to score be
cause it could not maintain
ball control, due to poor pass
ing and line play
Ball control was a problem
which plagued both trams The
players relied on kicking rather
than passing to move the ball.
