Love, Drozdiak, Two Others Suspended Rooks Defeat Frosh By JOHN ANDKKSON Of Ihr Kmi-rald “All you need Is l.ove," so the Song goes, And Drozdiak . . . And Green. . . . Oregon's Frosh basketball team, lacking the vital elements —starting center Stan Gove and starting forwards Bill Drozdlak and John Green, who together average 90 points a game — hail their undefeated season halted at 11 wins Saturday night. Host Oregon State, showing no mercy for the “wingless" Ducklings, avenged an'earlier loss and handed the Frosh a 73 44 defeat Ducklings Suspended l.ove, Dro/iak and Green, along with reserve forward Jay Crittenden, were banded one game suspensions by the coach ing staff Saturday morning for a minor infraction of training rules. l.ove is the leading scorer with a 22 4 average, Drozdiak is sec ond with a 17.3 average, and Green carries a 10.0 mark l.ove is also leading rebounder, with Green second and Drozdiak third. Their absence showed. And it hurt. The Frosh roster down to nine, Oregon made the trip to Corvallis with one forward, two centers and six guards Leonard Jackson, normally a 6-5 guard, was moved to forward with Marty James; 6 7. 230 pound Mike Williams started at center; and 59 fireball Carlton Slater shared backcourt with Kick Brosterhous. The combination was not ef fective. It lacked the scoring punch. It lacked the rebounding punch. And it lacked the defen sive punch. 1/cad at Start The Frosh moved to a 7-4 lead in the first four minutes of the contest, mainly on Slater's efforts, but OSU went ahead 8 7 with 15:27 to go in the half and never trailed from that point on. Before the Frosh even scored again on a lay-in by Jack son, they found themselves trailing by ten Kcbounding from a 36-21 half time deficit, Oregon outscored the Kooks 11 5 in the first five and a half minutes of the sec ond half to close the gap to nine, forcing the Rooks to call a time out OSU came out of the huddle with an inspired de fense, held the Ducklings with out a field goal for the next eight minutes and allowed them only four for the remainder of the game, and meanwhile out scored them 32-12 to take the win going away. 27-Point Lead Rook coach Bill Harper, re membering the 76-56 defeat his players at Kugene a week earlier, kept his starters in the game until OSU had a 27-point lead with 2:41 to play. The last Rook first stringers left the game with 38 seconds left in the game. Oregon State hit a surprising .519 from the field, 15-29 in the Too Many 'Ifs' Doom Wrestlers By RICK FITCH Of the Emerald As Coach Art Keilli said after the match, “You don’t win on is. IK the outcome had been dif ferent in four key matches, Oregon might have pulled off the upset of the season and defeat ed Oregon State, reigning AA WU champion for the last eight years, in a wrestling match. As it turned out, Oregon earn ed ties in two of those key matches, lost the other two, and lost the match 26-13. The four key matches: • The 123 - pound division where Oregon's Terry Hileman tied Merritt Davis, runner-up in the AAWU Tourney's 123 class for the last two years. “Terry came close to winning the match said Keith (the score was 6-6). "I said at the end of last season, he was the most improved wrestler. This match shows that he’s picking up where he left off." • 145, where the Ducks’ Masashi Saito, a 130-pounder, lost 2-1 to Beaver Steve Woods. Saito, much smaller than his opponent, lost when the referee penalized him a point for in tentionally going off the mat to avoid a takedown. "It was a UO Gymnasts Edged by SJS By BEN KALB or the Emerald Prior to Friday’s San Jose Oregon gymnastics duel, Duck coach Dick Smith predicted the outcome of the meet would be decided by two points either way. 1 Coach Smith could not have been more accurate. Unfortun ately, it went the wrong way. Led by all-around man Tony Cappola, the San Jose Spartans captured five lirst places and won, 161.25-159.50. Cappola took first on the still rings, scoring 9.3 out of 10.0, and the high bar with a 8.6. He went on to take 50.85 total points to lead the all-around competition. Oregon lost even though, as (Continued on page II) judgment call," said Keith. “In my Judgment it wasn't a correct one.” • 167. where Oregon's George McNair, ahead 6-1 at one point, lost 11-10. "George and I were both disappointed with his performance. Of course he's been out with an injury, but that isn't an excuse. He just didn’t catch fire." • 101, where Tim Wilmarth tied OSU's Tim DeJager 2-2. “If Tim had just 10 more seconds of riding time, he would have gotten one point and the win.” (Riding time is the amount of time one wrestler is in control over the other.) The two "name" wrestlers of the meet, Oregon's undefeated John Miller, and the Beavers' Jess Lewis performed as expect ed. Miller won by decision 13 0, and Lewis pinned previously unbeaten heavyweight Henry Muller in the first round. Keith compared their wres tling styles. “I've known about Lewis for the last five years, when he won the Oregon A-2 Championship and placed sixth in the World Games. He’s real aggressive and goes for the pin. Miller’s not a pinner. He’ll try to decision his man." LEW WILLIAMS CHEVROLET SERVICE DEPT. ... Close to The Campus . . .

LEW WILLIAMS CHEVROLET 20-20 Franklin Blvd. 342-1 121 first half and 13-25 in the sec ond period A week earlier at McArthur Court, they hit only 19 to 57 for 333 The Frosh, meanwhile, hit their season low in shooting. Lack of height in the Frosh line-up hurt, as the Rooks out rebounded Oregon by an over whelming margin. OSU’s Larry Webber claimed honors as game's high scorer with 18 points. He was closely followed by Tim Perkins, who had 17. Slater was high for the Frosh with 13. Leonard Jackson had 10 and Brosterhous 9 Oregon Soccer Team Tops St. Patricks 3-0 By GIL HULIN Of the Emerald Oregon remained undefeated in Portland Soccer league play Sunday with a 3-0 win over St. Patricks on the intramural field. The win was the first in three starts for the Ducks against the Irish, who held Oregon to a 2-2 tie in the first half and won 2-1 in a Cameron Cup Tourna ment semi final. Sunday's match was a reversal of previous meets, as the Ducks took an early lead on John Mor gan’s tally after a scramble in front of the Portland club's net. The score remained 1-0 at the half. Midway through the second half left wing Paul Chelidi put the Ducks ahead 2-0 on a fast break and Randy Swangard closed the scoring in the final minutes after the St. Patrick goalie fumbled the ball in front of the goal. Oregon’s record is now 2-0-1 in the second half after winning the Portland League first half with a 4-0-1 mark. Want to really get results? Use Emerald Classified Ads pimps EOT PI2ZJ.
