At least there will be some 20-odd collegiate hoopsters in Memorial pavilion Friday night that will be remembering two scries of basketball games that were played here and in Eugene, last season. The University of Oregon Web-foots have distinct recollection of two losses to the University of Idaho Vandals here last season 33-28 and 35-34. The local quintet also recall embarrassing 68-41 and 41-24 defeats at Eugene.

The two teams open their annual four-game series here Friday night at the same time Oregon State meets Washington in Seattle. Second games will be played Saturday. Coach Howard Hobson was pleased witli the showing of his Ducks in smashing out two straight triumphs over Washington Slate at Pullman Monday and Tuesday nights. The victories placed the Oregons in a threatening position to overtake the undefeated Washington Huskies. Straight wins over the Vandals, rated as Oregon's toughest rivals, will virtually clinch a successful Idle defense.

A split series is the worst Web-fools followers hope for. After jittery slart against Washington the Vandals losing two straight Coach Forrest Two-good's quintet staged a reversal of form by dropping Washington State 27-18.
