- - - A
;Utah faces Oregon in the
second game, and the likely
results will produce a shut
down for the regional title
Saturday between Pete Ne
well's Golden Bears and Jack
Gardner's Utes.
The Utah coach figured the
draw for tonight gave him a
break, "and it's about time."
Three times before Gardner
has taken good teams to the
regionals only to have them
knocked out of contention the
first night by the team which
went on to win the tourney.
Last year, it was California.
As for Newell, who chews
towels to control his nerves,
every game is a scare, even
when his Bears are winning
by 30 points.
Broncs Tough
California has a 25-1 sea
son's record and All-Ameri-can
Darrall Imhoff to frighten
Coach Bob Feerick and his
Broncs who have won 21 and
lost eight this season. But the
Broncs showed they are tough
to handle when they jumped
into a tie for the West Coast
Athletic conference and de
feated Loyola of Los Angeles
in a playoff.
The young and speedy Utah
squad, with a starting lineup
which will be around next
year, has lost only twice in
27 games. The Utes' scoring
record makes them heavy fa
vorites over the Oregon
Ducks, top independent team
of the Pacific Northwest with
a 18-9 record.
Gardner hopes his good for
tune in drawing an opponent
other than California for to
night carries a fine chance for
an upset. .

Year of Varsity Rivalry
Six members of Jesuit High
school's first graduating class
will make their appearance in
the Oregon A-l prep basket
ball tournament next Wednes
day night when the Crusaders
meet Medford in the last game
of the opening round of the
annual tourney at Eugene.
The Portland area parochial
school, which produced the
No. 2 hoop team in the Wilco
league this season, is in its
fourth year of operation and
has its first senior class.
This is just Jesuit's second
year of varsity participation
in athletics. The school is
located just outside the Port
land city limits. It is 1 1 2 miles
east of Beaverton.
Enrollment at Jesuit is 380
compared to Medford high's
1450. But, the students at the
parochial school all are boys.
Medford has around 775 boys
enrolled. Since Jesuit has no
girl students, the Oregon
School Activities association
determined its athletic classi
fication by doubling its enroll
ment figure. Coeducational
schools of 500 and more aver
age daily membership are
Class A-l in Oregon.
Coach Jerry Dadey's Cru
saders will take a 12-10 season
mark against the Black Tor
nado in the 8:45 p.m. Wednes
day game. That record, how
ever, is a bit deceptive in de
termining Jesuit strength.
For, the Crusaders have done
well after a poor start. They
lost seven of their first nine
games. Since that rough going
they have won 10 of 13 con
tests. Since the Crusaders lost no
players by graduation last
year they have a veteran
squad. The six seniors are
