SUCCESSFUL SEMI
Majority of Contests Result In
Victories.
Winning two out of 1 hreo football
games, five out of ton basketball games,
two out of four track meets, and eight
out of ten baseball games, the Oregon
aggregation of frosh athletes have had
a comparatively successful year. The
work of the football and baseball teams
was especially good, according to local
sport experts.
In football the green-cappers started
things off by cleaning up on Pacific Uni
versity by a 27 to 7 score. A week later
because of a fluke, they lost to the Che
jnawa Indians, 10 to 0. Armistice day
saw the classic of the year, when the
Rooks went down to defeat 12 to 0, un
der the smashing attack of the husky
frosh backs, backed by a wonderful line
One reason for the quality of the frosh
teamwork was the fact that they had as
coaches Ken P.artlctt and “Baz” Will
iams. both former gridiron stars of the
Lemon-Yellow. It was their job to pick
a team from a half a hundred or more
green men and make it a winning team
It was a big job but they did it.
With “Shy” Huntington as coach and
“Had” Rockhey as captain, the frosh
basketball squad won half of their games
and did much in developing the varsity
five by furnishing them stroug opposition
in practice.
The two wins over the O. A. C. rooks
last Friday and Saturday, 10-12 and 6-5
completed one of the most successful
frosh baseball seasons ever seen at the
University, the kids having taken eight
out of 12 games, making their percentage
.800. Bill Steers, of football fame,
coached the frosh and it is to his effort?
that the success of the nine is largely
clue.

than t hey had this, and the battle will be
a mighty one. On Thanksgiving day, the
Lemon-Yellow cloven will play the Mult
nomah club team in Portland.
Three post season games will then fol
low. Arrangements for a post season
game with the University of Wisconsin
to be played in Portland on December ft
or 7 are in progress, according to ad
vices from Wisconsin. The coach and a
number of the strong alumni from that
institution are heartily in favor of r
game. All that is necessary for the con
test is to secure the consent of the ath
letic board of that institution. In case
Wisconsin cannot make the trip, however
it is probable that a game will be played
in Seattle with the University of Wash
ington on one of these two dates.
On December 10, the Oregon squad
will leave for the Hawaiian Islands where
they will be gone on a tr:n nf about one
month. Two games will be played at
Honolulu, one on December 20 with the
University of Hawaii and another with
tiie Hawaiian all-stars, to be played also
at Honolulu, on January 2.
This will complete the 1021 grid sched
ule and it is by far the heaviest which an
Oregon team has ever undertaken. The
Oregon coaching staff which will whip
the team into shape for the strenuous
season will consist of Head Coach “Shy”
Huntington. “Bart” Spellman, line coach
and “Brick” Mitchell, end coach. Hunt
ington and Spellman coached last year
while “Brick” Mitchell has been head
coach at the Olympic club of San Fran
cisco and assistant coach at Stanford
during the past two reasons.
Five of Coach Huntington's regulars
will not In' buck another, and four of
these were three-year letter men. “Bill”
Steers, captain of the team last season
and rated as the best quarterback on the
Pacific coast and one of the best in the
country, has played his three seasons,

ished three seasons and “Brick” Leslie

mighty good ball. In hitting, however,
the big fellow fell far below his record
of last year. Floyd Shields acted in the
capacity of relief catcher, but didn’t get
much of an opportunity to show his wares
due to Spike’s very excellent health.

pitching, 6-5, losing the second which was
started by Knudsen and finished by Berg

a double win hv Washington State. 4-R

break, the varsity dropping the first

Prospects for next year seem fairly
bright. The frosh have some A-1 in
fielders in Sorsby. “Tex" Knight and
Terry Johnson, who will add a world of
strength around the bags. PeArmond
looks like a sure bet in the outfield, while
“Lefty” Baldwin. Pong Wright and Phil
I’ingle will fill some of the holes in the
pitching staff made by graduation, and
Ward Johnson behind the bat will
strengthen the catching staff.
The team loses some good men this
year. Art Berg, star pitcher, gets his
degree, as does Jacobson, the big right
hander. Billy Reinhart, star outfielder
and hitter and this year's captain, has
won his third letter; Knudscn, pitcher,
outfielder and hitter extraordinary, has
played his last game with an Oregon cap
on his head, and Johnny Gamble dons the
cap and gown in a few days. The loss
of these men will be keenly felt, but with
the majority of the team intact and with
the excellent material coming in, and the
student body behind him. Bolder should
be able to put out a winning team next
year.

This furniture is especially
adapted for use in men’s fratern
ity houses. It is heavy, sub
stantial, and built for rough
usage. Although it has these
characteristics, it is by no means
unattractive. Its style, grace
ful and beautiful. You can find
no better for the purpose.
Next Fall when you are re
arranging your furniture and are
getting ready for the coming
school year, you will find a weed
for new pieces for certain corners
and places. When you recog
nize that need, don’t forget that
we are just the ones that can
fix you pp.
We are certainly proud of
the fact that we carry a com
plete line of furniture “made
in Oregon.” The term
“Made in Oregon” has more
significance than it used to
have. It means, when you
buy furniture, that you are
getting something reliable
and substantial. When you
buy Oregon furniture it also
means that you are foster
ing home industry and work
I ing for a greater State.
Sweepers
If von have not already got
an electric sweeper, you should
immediately get one. They will
keep the dirt from being ground
into the rugs, thereby increasing
the life of the rug by several
years. The need of an electric
sweeper is more acute in a fra
turnity house than elsewhere, be
cause the continuous treading
hack and forth over the room
' will soon grind the dirt in the
rugs. (Jet an electric sweeper
| and prevent this.
Looking Foreward
We are looking forward to a
“(1 renter Oregon” next year.
Bring some one back with you,
and watch Oregon grow. Wish
ing you a good and prosperous
summer, we remain—.
