Division IW 'inner Likely to Hold 5 Losses , Although Portland writers aren't reluctant to tell that any quint ' which loses the historically-proven five games simply won't win the Northern division basket derby, they jnay have to look to their laurels before the current chase is over. Anyway, a blanket of wetness covers such history in the division since only three years ago (the 1941-42 season) Slats Gill's Beavers copped the title with an 11-won 5-lost record.. And going further back, Washington State won it in 1937 .with the same record. Oregon actually won in 1938 with six losses, although 20 games were played that year instead of the present 16. As the race stacks up now, the winner seems certain to hold five losses. Oregon, out in front with 7-2 at present, must meet Washing ton's trainees twice at Seattle, a tough course. Then a pair at home , against Idaho, which are considered as in the bag, and three more against Oregon State. If there isn't three losses in that mess for the Webfoots we'll apologize. Both Washington and Oregon State have lost four times already. Along with the two Oregon games this week end the Huskies must play both Idaho and Washington State on the latter courts. Remember what little' Idaho did to the mighty Huskies last year at Moscow". As for Oregon State three games remaining with Oregon plus the remainder of the palouse jaunt, 'Nuf said. Wash ington State, also loser of four at this writing, has four meetings with Washington yet to go. j Ten, tch. . : "-With a setup such as that left for all'members, the one which does win the pennant while escaping the five-losses whammy far and away deserves it.
