INTEREST IN WRESTLING GROWING, SAYS WIDMER Present Prospects Favorable For Varsity Squad Wrestling at the University is gradually growing from a minor to a major sport, under the guidance of Coach Widmer. Although only one let terman has been turned out in the past three years, it is almost certain that some will be adorned with a wrestling “O” this year. According to Widmer, the prospects are favorable for so early in the season. Robertson, Chatburn and Sumption of last year’s squad are turning out regu larly. Akers, Terjesen and Kirtley also last year men, are out for football and will considerably strengthen the squad when they appear in wrestling togs. It will not take long for them to get in condition as they are in good shape at the present time. Other strong men of last year who wrsetled in the do-nut matches or were out for the squad are playing football and will probably turn out for the var sity this year. The men are L. Ander son, Mills, Burton, Sinclair and Mautz, all heavyweights, who will help this division. Baird, Simola and Morelock of last year’s frosh squad are working hard in order to land berths on the varsity. Several promising freshmen are work ing out, but they are lightweights. Be yond a doubt the heavy division will receive some men when the frosh football schedule is ended. Every year there is a lack of candidates for the weights of 158, 165 and 175 pounds, but this year the coach expects to have a large harvest of big men. Wrestling is gradually developing from a sport where brutal strength is used to one where strategy is required to win. Year by year wrestling is get ting to be more of a scientific sport. It is not necessary that the strong man make the best wrestler but the'one who is quick and uses his head to apply the different holds. • OREGON CLUB IS VICTOR IN HARD FOUGHT BATTLE Sigma Nu Beaten by 19-16 Score; Sigma Pi Tau Defeated Easily by Kappa Sigs, 37-5 Oregon club defeated the Sigma Nu ifive yesterday afternoon in the first overtime period contest of the year, 19 to 16. The contest was close and hard fought from start to finish and it was necessary to play a five-minute extra period to decide the winner. The Sigma Nu’s had a slight advan tage in the first period and led at the half-time, 11 to 9. This advantage was soon cut down by the club in the next half and the two teams battled “nip and tuck,” neither having any decided advantage. The whistle at the end of the second half found the two teams tied at 15 all. In the overtime period Oregon club scored 4 points to their opponents’ 1, and clinched the victory. JBeatty, Taylor and Voung were the shining lights for the winners, while Lee with 12 points was the star for the losers. The Kappa Sigma quintet had every thing thier own way in their game with the Sigma Pi Tau team and scored an easy victory, amassing 37 points to their opponents’ 5. The winners out played the losers in all departments of the gan^e, and worked tjhe ball down for basket after basket. Fraser with 20 points and Johnson with 15 scored all but two of the Kappa Sig points. Miller and Houser were the mainstays for the losers. The games for today: Phi Kappa Psi vs. Chi Psi at 4 p. m.

What the fate of the ancient relies of the craft will be is unknown. Per haps the proposed new museum on the campus may welcome them as remind ers of the good old days when the Emerald appeared cautiously every week minus messages from communiea ctive members of the student body, a full column of campus announcements and editorial wisdom on the propriety of bobbed hair. 0 .but—the new order welcomes the inviting looking array of noise makers in the news room and it is hoped tljat they will prove as inspiring as they took to the weary inhabitants who pound out their daily quota.
