Can weary Ducks revive? Well, here we go again — it’s do-or-die week, installment number three. While Beaver Fever has en gulfed Linn and Benton counties, Oregon’s own Big-Green-Butt Kicking machine has had enough trouble slapping hands let alone booting anyone. Coach Dick Harter takes his Kamikaze dive bombers into the land of rolling fog, which Stanford’s Rich Kelley seems to spend most of his time in — and roller-coaster cable cars — which resembles California’s season, seeking to regain some lost momentum. Tonight the Ducks will be up in the hills of Berkeley looking to snag Rickie Hawthorne, Carl Bird, Jay Young or any other stray bear. It was six weeks and a million crises ago, that Oregon failed to control California down the stretch and finally suffered its first loss of the season, 60-58. Since then things have been all downhill — conference-wise, that is. The Ducks have won but two Pac-8 games since then and stand in seventh place. California on the other hand has won their last three games—all league coun ters — and seven out of their last eight contests. Hawthorne is the Bears top scorer with a 16.1 average, while Connie White and Bird follow with 13.5 and 13.4 respectively. Hang gliders hit the air Hang gliders from throughout the Northwest will meet at Peterson’s Butte near Lebanon this weekend for Oregon’s first competitive hang-glider’s meet. The competition, labeled the First Annual Oregon Frostbite Championships, is being spon sored by the Southern Oregon Hang Gliders Association and the dfegon Free Air Farce. Several Eugene-area hang gliders and association members are co ordinating the event. “We expect anywhere from 50 to 100 pilots to be flying,” said Bernie Wolfard, a Springfield hang glider manufacturer and one of the meet's directors. “Peterson's Butte is the best site in the Willamette Valley because there’s a clear landing area and lots of wind.” Pilots who would like to com pete in the meet may register at the contest site Saturday or Sun day for a $5 entrance fee. Genera! admission to the meet is $1 per day and competition will last from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Senior Class Council plans food drive The Senior Class Council is planning a food drive for the poor this Sunday. The drive is planned to restock Salvation Army shelves that feed needy families in the area. Students will meet at Mac Court at 10 a.m. and with the help of the National Guard will go door-to door asking for donations of can ned goods. Sponsors claim nearly two tons of food were collected in the last drive. Further information can be ob tained from Senior Class Presi dent Jim Davis at 484-1013 or ext. 4314. Students will meet at Mac Court at 10 a.m. and with the help of the National Guard will go door-to door asking for donations of can ned goods. *•*-•633 Alley riVER TWIN CINEMA ham fna Mn Imr CtMtr NOW SHOWING FRIDAY 7:30 - 9:45 MIDNIGHT Sorry no passes Dustin Hoffman "Lenny" A Bob Fosse Film A Marvin Worth Production A Bob Fosse Film Dustin Hoffman “Lenny” co-ti«rfme VdlGrio PsrrinG emcuia*Produce Dsvici V PicKgt sc*.**.* Julian Barry p-odu«d<* Marvin Worth OmeMdby Bob F0SS6 Mu*ic*l Suoorvwjn by Bdleft Burns tjurtid AfMl The Bears have to rate as the most improved team in the con ference. Coming off a sweep of the Washington schools they should be ready to improve on their 5-4 league and 15-6 overall records. On the other side of the bay, in the shadow of Hoover Tower, the Cardinals of Stanford are still try ing to decide which aspect of bas ketball meets their desires — win ning or losing. By the season s end they should be experts at both. At this point in the season, Stanford has beat UCLA, USC and Oregon State, the leagues top three teams, while losing to Washing ton, Oregon and Cal. Howie Dallmar’s club record stands at 5-4 in league and 11-10 over-all. Who cares about consistency, eh Howie? While Stanford hasn't exactly been a model team this season they still have the talent to beat anyone, including themselves. Kelley, the 7 foot center, who only gets involved in about half Stanford's games, is leading the league in rebounding and is third in scoring. Ed Schweitzer is the teams second leading scorer with a 16.1 average while chipping in eight caroms a game. Scott Trobbe, Tim Patterson, Melvin Atterberry and Mike Bratz are all key players for Stanford. But none is as im portant as Kelley. If he plays well, so does the team. Just ask John Wooden or Bob Boyd. If Oregon is going to make any effort to stop their backward skid, then this is the weekend. If not, bring out the caskets.
