Sports Club Sports Ruggers roll up 40 points in two wins Coach Jim Lisle pu! his prediction that the Ducks would not lose to an American Team this year to a test over the weekend Oregon Ruggers warmed up Saturday against perennial powerhouse St. Mary’s College who they beat, 24-3, thanks to the scoring of Ken Brown, who scored twelve. John Montagna, Terry l/igan and Smokey Storm each contributed four. The green shirted visitors outplayed the St. Mary’s team in all areas but the forwards but their defensive skills were what made the real difference. Sunday they travelled to Davis where they played Cal Davis, a previously undefeated team who had already beat number one rated Stanford this season When the smoke was over, Usie's prediction was still looking good. The final tally showed Oregon with a 16-7 victory over Davis who were the first team to cross the Oregon goal line this season. Once again the credit for victory was given to a strong defense which held a much heavier Stanford team down in the scoring department. Ken Brown's nine points added to four by John Montagna and three by Itoss Douglas provided the points necessary for the win which gave the Ducks a 6-0 record so far for the season. Meanwhile, on the Salem Fairgrounds, the seconds demolished Willamette’s varsity, 12 4 Tony Evans, Glyn Bissix and It Vic led the Green and Yellow victory on a water covered field in freezing tem peratures. volleyball As coach Richard ('ox put it, in one weekend Oregon's volley twill team "emerged from a crushing defeat in Eugene to become a title contender in Seattle." The defeat had come at a YMCA competition late in the fall quarter The Seattle Invitational last weekend was the other event. That one included ten of the best teams in Northwest. In the final standings the Lemon and Green tied with Vancouver, B.C. for third place. To get there they had pulled off the upset of the tournament by knocking out the Multnomah Athletic Club’s team, an op ponent they had not beaten in over three years. Their excellent blocking so upset the Portlanders that MAC lost their composure and fell to the Ducks, 15-1. Oregon was knocked out of the contention for the title by Keubins 5, who are a Northwest powerhouse, by scores of 15-11 and 15-12. The Ducks feel that they will beat them in one of the future meetings bet tween the two later this year. Most outstanding of the players on the team were Gene Titsworth who displayed excellent hitting and superb court poise, and Ben Mahon who supplied a great deal of the blocking that ruined the MAC team Cox finished off by saying that "It is encouraging that we did so well when we have so much that we can improve on.” bowling Thanks to strong comebacks in all three games the kegling team still has a good shot at the OCBL title this year A poor start in the first games put the Ducks sixty pins behind in four frames and started the coach into a state of distraught But a double by Dave Nute seemed to pick the whole team up and when the final tally was made it was Oregon by thirty and it looked like a runaway...until the first six frames of the second games which found the green shirts 110 sticks in the hole. Once again a comeback brought Oregon to within ten pins by the tenth and allowed them to take a 17 total pin lead into the third game. But again the Ducks feil behind, this time by twenty pins in the first frame, only to storm from behind late in the game and walk away with three of the four points. Oregon now stands only two points behind in second place with Portland State unlikely to hold that lead after facing Oregon State Jan. 27. This will give the Ducks a good shot at successfully defending the title if they can take three out of four from the Beavers in February. Against Portland State both the J.V.’s and the ladies took 3-1 victories. Ivan Isaacson led the varsity with a 587 series while Dave Higgins turned in a 583 for the JV’s. Carol Racette turned in a surprising 551 for the girls. skiing Hilly Ebling paced a field of 30 “Class B” men at Ski Acres, Wash Saturday as he fought the clock and freezing rain, wind and fog to turn in a 54.44 run. He was followed closely by Mike Hum mel whose 58.36 garnered him third place in the Grand Slalom race. The ladies were able to do even better, pulling in a first and a second in the Blizzard Cup competitions. Sue Ferguson led the way and Jamie May followed her in as runner up in their Grand Slalom. soccer On the soccer fields, Oregon teams each picked up a win over the weekend. The Mallards opened the show with a home victory over Portland Com munity College and the Coot backs followed through with one on the road against the Forest Grove Keggers Both scores were 8-1.
