lever the well-balanced Axe-
garnered their share of votes
but they were not concentrated on
any one particular player. Indica
tive of this is the fact that three
of Hank Kuchera's lads Gene
Stott, Norm Willoughby and Jack
Henkel gained second team spots
along with Floyd Burright of
Springfield and Dick Nelson of
University.
Only Willamette, in Division 1,
failed to place a man on the first
two teams.
In Division 2, the champion
Oakridgc club placed two other
men on the second team, Glenn
Williams and Bunky Beard. Join
ing them on the runnerup squad
were Jerry Robberson of Pleasant
Hill, Larry Walsh of St. Francis
and Gale Cragin of the Billies.
Two men, one from each divi
sion, were unanimous choices
both as all-opponent selections and
in top valuablcness to their teams.
They were Paulson and Clark.
Pakulak and Tuchardt both missed
by one vote of being unanimous
selections.
In Division 1, Paulson, Pakulak,
Hcacock and Radway were the
heaviest choices, while Rasor
edged out Henkel, Burright and
Willoughby (in that order) for
the fifth berth.
PAULSON REPEATER
Paulson is the only repeater
from the 1952 District 6 all-star
team, while Burright dropped
from the first to the second team.
Pakulak and Clark both climbed
to the top ranking from second
team berths last season.
Exactly half of the 10 named
are juniors and will be back next
year. These arc Rasor, Radway,
Burris, Tuchardt and Furrer. The
rest arc graduating seniors.
A run-down on the players:
PAULSON: Leading scorer in
Lane County "A" ranks with bet
ter than 500 points . . . Boasts
deadly one-hand jump shot which
is impossible to stop.
PAKULAK: One of hardest
working cagers in area . . . Excels
in both shooting and rebounding
. . . Not a flashy player but one
of the steadiest and most under
estimated in the district.
HEACOCK: Top reboundcr in
Division 1 . . . Has made tremend
ous improvement in last year, and
generally was Miller high scorer

that Washington will win at Corvallis and a few pick the Huskies
to become the second Northern Division team in history to win the
NCAA title. ...
Now that Wvomine made the grade, you can be certain tv snciton
will have his Cowpokcs ready after losing out to an underdog Santa
Clara team last year.
if The Lane County "B" and the District 6 basketball tourna
ments arc a line example 01 an uniair manner oi nccimug a ciidin-
pionship. . . . The B-lcagucrs, years ago, had some excuse for i county
tourney. . . . The biggest basketball show in the county always needed
some sort of a playoff because the league at one time was split in
three divisions. . . .
It has long been an established fact that league play (double
round-robin) is the most just way to decide a champion, providing
there is only one league which is the case in Lane County at the
present time. . . . Had this been the method this season, Mohawk
and McKcnzie would have played off for the crown, having tied
through the regular season. . . .
As for the District 6 championship, it would have been more
logical to have Eugene play Oakridge in a three-game scries rather
than having the present four-team double-elimination. . . . The "B"
tournament would be difficult to eliminate because it is a traditional
affair and fans tln-nughout the county would find something missing
in their lives. . . There is nothing traditional in the District 6 play
offs and we suspect it is nothing more than a money-maker. . . .
Playoffs of the District 6 nature are a product of baseball's
Shaughncssy system of having the top four team in an eight-team
league hold a playoff which usually produced the real league cham
pion and another club to win the Shaughnessy pennant a money
making idea, pure and simple.
k While in Seattle for the PCC and an at-large NCAA play
offs, we figured another day would not be Tasted to attend the
first round of the Washington "A prep tourney providing Elma,
Wash., qualifies. . . . Local .basketball fans should be interested in
the performance of Gary Nelson, the 7-foot, 214-inch Elma center who
is scheduled to attend the University of Oregon next school year. . . .
Frank Graham (Mildred and Bob) and Fred Peters have gone to
"spring training." the Grahams to Riverside and Peters to Glcndalc,
where the Portland Beavers are training. . . . Fred, one of Eugene's
No. 1 trapshootcrs, will also trek to Arizona for a look at the New
York Giants. . . . Frank is still interested in some sort of baseball for
Eugene this summer and intimates Bethel park might be disposed of
unless there is an immediate use for the park. ...
There is still the possibility that Eugene could return to organized
baseball, under a class "A" or "B" classification, along with Salem. . . .
The Jay Gano basketball trophy, established by Mrs. Gano of
Eugene in memory of her husband, an ex-Idaho star killed in the
service, was awarded to Bruce Mcintosh, the under-rated Vandal. . . ,
The trophy, for the most inspirational player, was won by Sam Jen
kins last year. . . . Tommy Flynn won the trophy as most valuable
Idaho player. . . .
. . . Handles himself very well for
size (6-5, 220).
RASOR: Fastest guard in the
district, also smoothest ... Is
deadly from both outside and in
close with one-handcrs . . . Was
Eugene's high scorer and along
with Stott and Henkel gives Axe
men the best ball-handling set
around.
RADWAY: Aggressive type play
er who led team in scoring . . ,
Boasts terrific reactions and agil
ity .. . hard man to check . . ,
Main weakness is over-aggressiveness.
CLARK: Team leader for Oak
ridge team . . . Both big and fast
and can hit with equal ability from
out or in close . . . Good rebound
cr and uses speed in leading
team s fast break.
BURRIS: Still developing but
has uncanny one-hand jump shot
. Hard backboard worker, and
led Division 2 in scoring this sea
son.
TUCHARDT: If Washington's
Bob Houbregs is "Hooks," this lad
"Hooks Jr. . . . Can shoot this
type of shot with either hand and
is deadly both ways . . . Excellent
rebounder and if he continues im
provement will rate the equal of
ex-Eugenean Dean Parsons before
graduation.
BATES: Slickest ball handler in
Division 2 . . . Did excellent job
of feeding males in addition to be
ing runnerup scorer on team . . .
Was definitely sparkplug of sur
prise Creswell club.
FURRER: Lacked real polish but
made up for it in determination
and scrap . . . Not a high scorer
but a steady scorer and good floor
man who picked off his share of
rebounds considering his compar
atively small size.

the WoS basketball season re
vealed the hard-running Oregon
Ducks had all but ripped the rec
ord book to bits during the campaign.
Coach Bill Borchcr's Webfoots
put seven new Northern Division
team and two individual marks
record and did such a com
plete job on the school marks that
only three individual standards
held up and 32 of the 56 team rec
ords went by tho boards.
Big Chet Noe, one of tho finest
pivot men in Oregon history, led
the assault with ten performances
which rated mention. In confer
ence play he scored 307 points,
tallied 103 field goals and 101
free throws, tried 17 free throws
in one game and 153 in the sea
son, captured 229 rebounds, and
accounted for 10 field goals in one
game (Idaho) to wipe out marks
set up by such Oregon stalwarts
as Dick Wilkins, Jim Loscutoff,
Bob Peterson, Will Urban, Roger
Wiley and Ken Hunt.
MORE NOE RECORDS
In non-conference games Noe's
marks included 18 free throw tries
in a single game, tried 239 during
the season and made 150 for three
more marks. Of the ten the re
bounds and free throws attempted
were new conference highs. Ken
Wegner, with a .404 shooting aver
age in conference action was the
only man to break the Noe mono
poly.
As a team the Ducks broke the
division single game scoring rec
ord with 89 points against Idaho,
smashed the game total with 158
points when the Vandals chipped
in 69 points of their own, took
99 shots in the same game and
72 rebounds.
The other two conference stan
dards smashed were in free throw
ing when the Ducks tried 574 and
made 388, bettering the 468 tried
and 300 made for Oregon last
year.
MORE RECORDS
Elsewhere, the Ducks tried more
free throws (45), made more (31),
scored more points against each
conference opponent in both single
games and in tho four game series
than ever before and also allowed
more points against each team ex-!
ccpt for Oregon State.
The list of conference marks is
conducted by an obvious fact, the
Ducks were the highest scoring
team in school history as they
smashed all field goal and free
throw attempted and made stan
dards. The non-conference marks
proved much the same as this
edition of the Webfoots basketball
squad kept up its constant bar
rage of points.
