12 DANCES Nickle Vaudeville Circuit Lots of More DRINKS fine Music NEW SAT. MAR. 3 Dancing and Admission 2 Bits A Pair Balcony One Dime Washington and Multnomah Add Three Defeats to Lemon-Yellow. For First Time in Oregon's Ath letic History Team Fails to Win. B// Jimy fihcchy. 1017 intercollegiate basketball at Ore gon has run its course. The varsity closed its season last weekend by taking three more defeats. Washington trimmed Hezdek's men on the Seattle floor in their final two games. Saturday night Multnomah dub added the finishing touches with an over whelming 33 to 3 defeat of the lemon yellow. For another 10 months the in door game with all its thrills, will be laid on the shelf, to take its place along side of football. Ilasketball was the exact converse of football. The champion football team went through the entire season without a defeat registered against them. The basketball team failed to break into the win column in tin1 1 1 games played. It is the first time in Oregon’s athletic his tory that such a thing has happened. The long successful gridiron year and the utter inexperience of the basketball laterial, together with the fact that Ore gon had resumed the game after a year of inactivity on the floor, paved the way for the disastrous results. Hut four men won their letters. They are Lynn MeCready, Fred Cate, Dick Nelson and Hollis Huntington. Jay Fox, "Shy” Huntington and Carl Nelson lack ed but a few minutes of making their monogram. According to ( each Mezdek the Wash ington five was n much improved team over I lie one that played on the Eugene floor in the early part of February. They had a smooth working combination with Oaptain .lack Davidson and Baltnar, at center, doing most if the scoring. Ore gon's play was ragged in the holli games Itezdek gave all his men a chance in a vain effort to keep the score down. Saturday night the Multnomah club men let the varsity down with a paltry I hi. points. Thanks to Lynn MclTendj the lemon-yellow was saved the ignominy of a shutout. The clubmen have a fast, light, team who can play the floor as well as find the basket at frequent inter vals. Most of the Multnomah attack was built around (Jeorge Dewey, the former Oregon Aggie all-around athlete. Dewey counted 11 points in Saturday’s game. It is useless to attempt to say what Oregon’s chances arc for next year. That they are better than at tin1 start of this season is self-evident.
