Speaking of the throngs which. have made, like sardines to see the recent editions of the Oregon-Oregon" State con claves,OSC Alumnus Ted Chambers, also president -of he, Salem golf club clan, recalls as if it were yesterday a Beaver-Duck duel exactly 28 years ago. That particular squabble is no doubt remembered by many villagers, for 'twas I battled off right here on Willamette U's court But what Chambers recalls , as freshly as the foul toss missed ; by Oregon's ''Swede" Westegren, -I which would' have tied the score had he made it, was the crowd which tried to get in to see it "They even paid four-bits apiece to peek through the gym windows, and there were as many outside as inside," he tells . . .-How come. an Oregon-Oregon State mix at Wil lamette? Well, it seems that the , arch-rivals played their- annual four home-and-home ' games, each team beating the other on the los er's home floor. They slated two more as a playoff measure, but darned if they didn't again suc ceed in breaking even, each win . ner copping the nod on,the loser's floor. ! So finally they decided on BIVISIOH w h Oregon 9 Oregon State '- a I 1 i ? Waaiington SUte Washington Idaho ..a Idaho 45. i. Hi f EtJGENE,1 Ore Feb. 20 -i VP) - University of Oregon- Webfoots took a half -game lead in the North ern? division ef the Pacific j coast conference with a 66 to 45 basket ball victory . over Idaho ; here to-. night' Oregon went half a game ahehd of Ore2onStilteand a full garae in front of Washington State. The defeat killed Idaho's far-fetched mathematical chance forjthe title. Half time gave Ore go4 a 34 to 19 lead.; "J '.f v : Bob Hamilton, with- 17 points. and Ken Hays, with 14, were top scoi-ers forj Oregon while . Dick aces - 0f th series.5 KEN HAYS : just one more game, that one to be played on the neutral Willamette speedway. All transpiring in 1925 and Oregon State finally winning by one point . . . Incidentally, Westegren, who missed the free toss in the final seconds which would have tied it up, is now said to be the Hunt Clark of the Twin Falls, Ida., Herald circulation manager. And every time he gets together with Clark during a CM convention, our man says he lives over that 1925 battle to the last point even the missed one . . . Height of something or other is offered by Dick Strite, sports-slingcr at Eugene, via this item told to us at Corvallis Saturday: "Ya know," came Richard, "I'd like to see Oregon keep on winning - and finally roll right into Madison Square Garden for the. champion ship game with Howard Hobson sitting there in the seats!" Hobson, you know, is supposedly j on the "Garden" board of strategy while on . his Sabbatical leave from the university . . Strite has something there at that. We'll bet Mr. Hobson wouldn't know whether to frown or smile when he actually saw "yearling" John Warren, his substitute, riding herd on a national title-bent Webfoot band. . . . NolSame Blowof Didn't Blow at All It was hinted by some that tempers would flare during the recent No-Name league pow-wow at the. Vik Villa, during which Oregon .City and Milwaukie pulled stakes, but the circuit biggies instead wrote off the'session in a gentlemanly way. It took no more than two or three mniutes for the Pioneers and Maroons to become ex-members, and ' not a voice was offered when "question" was asked following the made and seconded motion. As far as the membership was concrned re the Milwaukie move, we have an idea most were perfectly content to see that school pull out Numerous family squabbles have been - squabbled in the past few years, and from what we're told, Milwaukie , managed to be involved in most There was a feeling, of reluctance over losing the Pioneers, how ever. We've not yet heard of an intra-leftgue beef involving the Dan Jonse entry. : But as curly-thatched Daniel himself nut it! "We don - feel that we're big enough for this league maybe in basketball ves ; "but in football no so we'd like to get in with teams our own size." An acceptable reason when you consider that Oregon City, enrollmen around the 500 mark, has won only two and tied one No-Name league , football games in the past four years. The Pioneers have been little v better in track and baseball but have been generally a topnotcher in basketball. The remaining members' will miss Jones and his charges. ; me entry ox Claude UooXe s Bend Lava Bears as a member i almost assured Bend has been attempting to sign on with the No v Namexs for years but a sixth prospective member is strictly in the speculation department : Cottage : Grove, Lebanon -and SoriMfield , were mentioned, but of the four only Bend will be immediately ten - tiered an official invitation by a n"investigation committee" of Gurnee Tlesher, Earl McKinney and Hank Kuchera, the league officers. Credit Center Ilayt With Fine Job Done Yes; 'Red Rocha did have a Bad night in the scoring column aealnst Oregon Saturday only two points all night and both from the foul stripe-which certainly; disproves the previous wailing that the Beav ers would be so many bums without the 6-foot 8-incher and his taller scoring binges They definitely didn't look like even well-dressed bums in winning again from the Ducks Saturday, and had Rocha beta "on", the count would have been by 45 or 20 points instead of just the two. . . - ; ;.:, :-:'.: :rr:: .;. ? Listen to what OSC Skipper Slats Gill had' to say about Rocha's evening: Ken Hays did a wonderful Job of checking Rocha Satur dayhe deserves much credit for a fine job, -And he did"it alone. No one dropped back in the Oregon defense, to help him." - Couple that with the fact that Ephraim th! Red simply couldn't buy a bucket dur ing the game1 and you have the reason for his two-point night - - ,- -Incidentally, you can take this for . what it's worth, but in our opinion 6-foot 7-inch Hays is the cleanest ballplayer on the Oregon team.'
