Oregon loses, 17-10
Huskies win
barely
By Brent De La Paz

SEATTLE —Oregon won the
battle, but lost the war.
That was the case as the
Ducks outplayed the No. 1 rank
ed University of Washington in
every phase except one — on
the scoreboard as the Huskies
slipped past Oregon. 17-10 in
Pacific-10 football contest
Saturday in Husky Stadium.
Oregon’s upset bid was by no
means a fluke. The Ducks. 4-3,
probably should have beaten
Washington, but the Huskies'
special teams set up
Washington’s two big scores of
the day.
The first was Ron Milus'
42-yard punt return which put
the Huskies in front 7-0 late in
the opening quarter. .
Washington's next big score
came in the third quarter. Tim
People’s blocked a Mike
Preacher punt which Husky cor
nerback Mike Gaffney gathered
in the end zone to give
Washington a 17-7 advantage.
.Gaffney’s score would be just
enough of a cushion for the
Huskies to weather a Duck com
eback bid in the fourth quarter.
‘‘We had some break downs
in the kicking game,’f said
Oregon coach Rich Brooks.
“They (Washington), executed
very well with a pun.t return and
blocked kick for the
touchdown. On' today’s game
r
and today’s performance that is
all they needed.”
That was all the Ducks would
give them as Oregon’s defense
• stole the show from the top
ranked team in the nation.
The Ducks’ defense bottled
Washington’s offense the entire
game. The Huskies sputtered to
three first downs and a 109 total
yards on offense.
“I thought our defense played
maybe one of the better games I
have ever seen us play,” said
Brooks who saw the Ducks drop
to 1-3 in the Pac-10.
Oregon moved the ball effec
tively against the Washington’s
famed defense despite losing
starting quarterback Chris.
Miller in the first quarter. Miller
suffered a concussion when
Washington linebacker Reggie
Rogers sent him sprawling to
the turf with a late hit.
, Playing without Miller, the
Ducks persevered .thanks' to a
gutty performance by backup
Oregon ‘quarterback Mike
Jorgensen. Jorgensen drove the
Ducks to a 7-7 tie when Alex
Mack plunged in for a 1-yard
touchdown run in the second
quarter.
Going into the third quarter
tied at 7, Washington got a big
break when Husky linebacker
Tim Meamber intercepted a
Jorgensen pass and returned to
the Ducks’ 31. Oregon’s defense ;
didn’t budge and the Huskies.
had to settle for a Jeff Jaeger
32-yard field goal to put
Washington up 10-7.
“Meamber made a great play
on the interception,” said
Brooks when the Husky
linebacker stepped in front of
Oregon tailback Kevin McCall
and gave the Washington of
fense one of their few scoring
opportunities of the day.
After Gaffney’s recovery in
the end zone, the Ducks came
back in the fourth quarter.
Oregon cut the margin to 17-10
on a 27-yard Matt MacLeod
field goal with 10:19 left.
The Ducks had two scoring
opportunites after MacLeod’s
field goal, but the Huskies
thwarted both attempts. On
their final drive of the afternoon
Oregon droved to the
Washington 20.with 46.seconds
left.. However, Jorgensen’s
fourth-down pass to tight end
Doug Herman was • knocked
down by Husky safety jim
Rodgers to seal the victory for
Washington'.

PEACE Special Work
CORPS ^or Special People
Peace Corps volunteers are
people pretty much like you. Peo
ple with commitment and skills who
. have assessed their lives and decided
they want to be of service to others
in a troubled world.
The problems our volunteers
deal with overseas aren’t new. Such
as the cycle of poverty that traps one
generation after another because
they’re too busy holding on to get
ahead. The debilitating effects of
malnutrition, disease, and inade
quate shelter. Education and skills
that are lacking, and the means to
get them too.
Your college training qualifies
you to handle more of these prob
lems than you might think. Such as
teaching nutrition and health prac
tices; designing and building bridges
and irrigation systems; working on
reforestation and fisheries pro
grams; introducing better agricul
tural techniques; advising small
businesses and establishing coopera
tives; or teaching math and science
at the secondary level.
The number of jobs to do is
nearly as great as the number of vol
unteers who have served since 1961:
Nearly 90,000. More volunteers are
being chosen now for two-year
assignments beginning in the next
3-12 months in Africa, Asia, Latin
America, and the Pacific.
Our representatives will be
pleased to discuss the opportunities
with you.
