UCLA then comes to the Duck home court on Feb. 22 and 22 and then the Webfoots travel to Southern California on March 1 and 2 before meeting Oregon State at QL'orvallis on Mafth 8 and here on March 9 for the season finale. Coach Don Kirsch's undefeat ed Qfreshman team has the only scheduled basketball action this week, traveling to Monmouth Friday to meet the Oregon col let junior varsity. The Duck lings, paced by Chuck Rask and Jerry Anderson of Jefferson, Dale Jones of South Salem, Stu Robertson of St. Francis of Eu gene and Doug Lundstrom of Eugene, have swept through their first eight games without a . loss and now have seven con tests left on the, 1957 schedule. Belter Outside Shooting Belko said he was still trying for better outside shooting to efee the defensive pressure against his two aces, Charlie Franklin and Hal Duffy. "We have to hit a little better out side," Belko said, "to keep our opponents from jamming up the key and dominating the re bounds." Franklin and Duffy continue to lead7 almost every department in the Webfoot statistics with Franklin leading in scoring and field goal shooting and Duffy topping the free throwing and rebounding.

The Bruins will gaze up at 6-foot, 10-inch Bruno Boin and 6-7 Doug Smart of the University of Washington, while the Bears will be confronted by 6-8 Gary Coble and 6-7 Dave Gambee of Oregon State. And the tall boys will have the advantage of their home courts. If"UCLA and Cal can get past the northern giants tonight, they still can't relax; the same op ponents will be on hand to morrow. In other PCC weekend series, Washington State plays at Stan ford and Idaho visits Southern California. Only one game is scheduled tonight in the California Basket ball association, but that pits two of the three teams currently tied for first place as St. Mary's meets th University of San Fran cisco. Tomorrow St. Mary's plays San Jose State and Loyola meets Pepperdine. The UCLA-Washington series will have a big effect on the championship hopes of both teams. The defending champion Bruins have won 32 straight con ference games, including six this season. Washington ieads the conference in victoria with sev en and has lost only one. California, with six straight wins, faces an Oregon State team that has lost six out of eight, but you can't judge the Beavers by the records. OSC was beaten twice by both UCLA and Washington while California hasn't met either team yet. And while the Bears have one of the leading defensive teams in the country, the Beavers have two of the coast's leading scor ers in Goble and Gambee. The Washington State-Stan-fcrd series will involve fourth place, with the Indians attempt ing to hold that spot against the sharp-shooting of the Cougars' Larrv Beck, leading scorer in the PCC. USC will go against Idaho in an effort to take over the Van dals' seventh spot in the stand ings, while cellar-dwelling Ore gon is idle.

The six-foot, 'five-inch South Carolina star needed 39 points going into Thursday night's game against Wake Forest to pass Columbia's Forte and and only 34 to pass runner-up Cham berlain of Kansas. He settled for 26 as South Carolina upset Wake Forest, 55-49, to end the Dea cons' seven-game winning streak. Wallace could have done it. At least, he had a good chance, for he already had notched 24 points with 10 minutes left in the game. Slow-Down Game But South Carolina was out in front in the game at Columbia, S.C., and elected to play a slow down game to preserve its lead. Giving up his chance for the na tional acclaim that the No. 1 spot would have meant,' Wallace took only one more shot in the game and that just three seconds be fore the final buzzer, tipping in a basket to make his final total for the night 26 points. Wallace, a 21-year-old junior from Mare Creek, Ky., who was the nation's leading junior col lege scorer last year with Pein ville, Ky., Junior College, thus saw his scoring average drop from 29.6 points per game to 29.4. He stays in third place be hind Forte's 30.1 and Chamber lain's 29.8. The loss was only the second in the last 17 games for Wake Forest, the nation's 15-ranked team which hadn't been beaten since bowing to national leader North Carolina. The Deacons, led by Jim Gilley's 17 points, tallied only five baskets during the second half. OSC, Oregon Vie On Mat, in Pool Corvallis Two of Oregon State's highly-successful and un defeated winter sports teams wrestling and swimming place their unblemished records on the line Saturday before top flight opposition at Dad's week end on the campus. Coach Dale Thomas' Beaver wrestlers, victors in six straight matches, face their stiffest com petition yet Saturday at 1:30 p.m. at Gill coliseum when they meet the undefeated Oregon Ducks. A preliminary mat event at 11 a.m. sends the OSC Rooks against the Oregon Frosh, also in the Coliseum. OSC's powerful swimming team, coached by Art Koski, takes out the strong Arden Hills AAU team of Sacramento at 2 p.m., in the men's gym rJool. The Beavers have four straight wins under their belts, most notable of which was a stunning 52-34 defeat of the perennial-champion Washington Huskies 1 a s-t week end at Seattle. Wrestling supremacy in the northwest and possibly on the coast will be partially decided Saturday. The Beavers won the Pacific Coast team crown in 1955 and 1956, while Oregon was runner-up at the coast meet last winter. Thomas rates the Saturday match a toss-up. ' Missionaries At Linfield By UNITED PRESS Linfield hosts Whitman to night in the first of a two-game Northwest conference basket ball series while College of Idaho is at Willamette. Monday night the eastern teams will switch opponents for a third game in the valley. Oregon Tech, leading the Ore gon Collegiate conference, hosts Eastern Oregon for two games this week end in a make or break series for the Mountain eers. ' Southern Oregon travels to Oregon college in the other half of the loop's schedule. Pacific and Lewis and Clark have an important Northwest conference date at Forest Grove tomorrow night. Portland State goes to Seattle Pacific for its week end compe tition out of any counting circles.
