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. Hilly Khinehart.

as she pleases to be called, upon her ar
rival.
"1 greatly appreciate your offer," said
Miss Tarhell, "and would he only too glad
to speak, hut" and here she smiled her
wistful smile again, "but my schedule
says that I must leave at midnight for
Mercedes, California, and it is a long way
and 1 am tired.”
Slightly above till' average lUMSJTllt. .Miss

Albert Perfect’s “Mighty Ore
gon” Will Be Put on Rolls.
University Band Leader Has,
Composed Many Popular
Members.
Added prestige came to the University |
faculty yesterday when Albert Perfect, j
director of the band and instructor in :
the school of music, received word that
his march, “Mighty Oregon,” had been,
accepted by a Chicago piano firm as one
of their selected marches for a music
roll.
“Mighty Oregon,” is one of the most
popular marches to which University
words were ever sung on a football field.
The song made its debut in printed form
last fall and was immediately adopted
on the campus. It was sung at every foot
ball rally and at every football game
last fall.
The words were written by DeWitt
Gilbert, beginning with Oregon. Our
Alma Mater.” The words are to the trio
of the march only. The music roll, how
ever includes the whole piece, and
will be on the market in April.
This is the second piece of music Mr.
Perfect has sold to the Chicago firm for
distribution on its piano rolls. He has
also sold a piece to another firm for the
same purpose. i
