PORTLAND, Ore. (Special)
Oregon Agricultural college 4nd
the t'niver.dty of. Oregon teams nre
now'leuding both the coast, and
northwest basketball conferences
with only a fortnight's play re
maining before the season ends.
This week's series will bring
Oregon and the Aggies together at
Kugene Friday night. Should the
Agglr-s win they will then have a
firm hold on first, place, in both
nces. The only chance to
'tie them would be for Oregon or
Washington, to win their remaining
gameA.' As Washington plays Ore-
gon, the loseP Df that game would
then ho elmiinated.
The Aggies have the best chance
for the championship as they h"ave
only that one Oregon game left oh
their schedule. Oregon and Wash
ington, on tho other hand, must
each; take the road. Washington
has been decidedly off color, losing
to Iduho and Oonzaga last week.
. Huskies Have Chance.
Should Oregon win all Its re
maining games it would then be
undisputed champion. Should It
vln from the Aggies but lose to
Washington, and should the Hus
kiest win their remaining games,
then Die Huskies would iwin the
title. Idaho lias an tints! r!c chance
lo remain in the running. Should
the-Aggies loselo Oregon, and then
Idaho- win its remaining four
games, the Vandals would then be
tied .with the Aggies for the load.
Last week's coast conference re
sults brought out one. upset
Washington's loss to Idaho, 29. to
?.0.. The Aggies, as was expected,
defeated Washington state 30 to 17,
and Idaho 24 to 15. Oregon also
came through with expected wins
from Washington slate 30 to 2(1,
and Iduho 48 to 35. Montana did
not play.
In the Paeaflc coast conference
Oregon nnd Washington hnve each
scored 100 points to, 4 for their
opponents. The Aggies have scored
100 to 87 for their opponents. All
the oihers have scored, less than
their opponents. '
ltet-nrd May He St-t.
In the northwest conference Ore
gon, If It keeps up Us present gait,
will estublish what Is believed to
he a conference record. The Web
footers hnve scored 433 points in
10 games, un average or 44.3 per

scored 100 points to 54
