OREGON CLUB DEFEATS
HENDRICKS HALL TEAM
Second League Game Fast; Thetas
are Victorious
By far the fastest, most interest
ing game played so far this season
in the women’s basketball series
was played last night between Ore
gon club and Hendricks hall (2),
resulting in a 19 to 17 victory for
Oregon club. The contest was close
at every point and crowds of in
terested spectators filled the gym
with excited rooting.
Both teams showed their best
playing on the floor last night, with
speedy passing and accurate shots
features of the game on both sides.
For the winners, the Overmire
sisters, as centers, did star playing.
The Quinlan twins, forwards for
Oregon club, stood out for their ex
cellent teamwork. Mildred Onslow,
forward, was the stellar player for
the losers.
Up to this game, Hendricks (2),
had been the only undefeated team
in league B. Susan Campbell (1),
Hendricks and Oregon club now
stand at the top, each having suf
fered one defeat. The choice of the
two teams which will play for the
championship of their league, rests
upon the results of the game to be
played between Hendricks and
Susan Campbell, Friday afternoon, i
Hendricks (1), in League A, is so
far the only undefeated squad in
its group.
Kappa Alpha Theta beat Delta \
Delta Delta in the other game
played last night, with a score of
. 12 to 6. It was a well-played game,
and fairly well-matched. The out.
^ come appeared to be a toss-up all
I through the game, until the Theta
forwards raised the score by sev
eral accurate shots.
Edna Murphy, center; Corinne
j Hill and Margaret Spencer, for
wards, were the stars for the win
ners. Josephine Ulrich, center, and
Alberta McMonies, guard, played
. their positions well, on the Tri Delt
; team.
NO STEP ARE TAKEN
TO REPLACE COACH
(Continued from page one)
j going to get the best coach in the
j United States. Did they? It is
safe to say they never saw any
| of those thousands. These big
I alumni funds are fairy gold. They
! look all right in the moonshine, but
j they pay no bills.
Alumni Coiltrol Undesirable
But if the alumni should raise,
j not ten thousand only, but ten thou
! sand a year, and if the ethics of
I amateur sport permitted us to pay
I an extravagant salary to the foot
ball coach, twice what any dean
gets, or maybe twice what the presi
dent gets, still it is worth thinking
about that any coach at Oregon
must be hired and controlled by the
University and student body. If a
group of Portland alumni raised the
money and paid his salary, the coach
would not be under the control of
the University and student body. It
is not worth it. The control of
athletics at Oregon must rest in
hands responsible to the state, and
cannot be turned over to anyone
else.
Penn State Wealthy
And lastly, Bezdek does not wish
to come back. He himself says it is
not worth further consideration.
Penn State handles so much more
money that they not only pay him
more than we could or would, but
that they could advance his pay as
much as would be necessary to keep
him. He has a freer hand there
than here. And lastly, he can play
Harvard every year, he can play in
Philadelphia and in New York city,
and he can read his name in the
metropolitan papers every week. To
use his favorite phrase, “When
you’re in the big leagues, who wants
to go back to the bush leagues?”
PATRICIA BYRNE, SENIOR,
WITHDRAWS FROM QUARTER
Patricia Novlan Byrne, senior in I
dramatic art, has withdrawn from
school for the quarter, due to an
attack of typhoid fever from which
she is convalescing. Mrs. Bryne,
who is known on the campus both
for her literary and dramatic work,
will probably return to school at the
beginning of the winter term.

A. T. 0. WINS VICTORY
FROM S. A. E. QUINTET
League “B” Game Results
in Score of 24 to 20
The A. T. O.’$ copped a fast
and roughly played contest from the
S. A. E. quintet last evening in
the league *‘B” elimination, 24 to
20. The game was exceptionally
close, being tied a number of times
both in the first and last periods.
The score was tied at 20 all with
two minutes to play when the win.
ners, with a sudden spurt, looped
two goals and cinched the game.
The passing and shooting on both
sides was good and the ball was
worked down fast into position to
score. Both sides roughed it up
considerably, especially in the sec
ond period, when the closeness of
the play caused it to be very hotly
contested. Carson caged a total of
14 points for the winners and played
an exceptional floor game. Harri
son and Farley each chalked up
eight markers for the losers and
were aided considerably by the
passing and floor work of King.
This win places the A. T. O. five
in a position to play the Kappa
Delta Phi team today for the cham.
pionship of league “B.” Both teams
are undefeated and are capable of
putting up a fast brand of ball,
which insures the championship bat
tle to be a hotly contested one.
The A. T. O.’s have Carson, their
lightning forward as the main cog
in their offense, with Schroeder, his
team-mate, a consistent player. Car
ter, the big center, and Gillen
waters and Mays, the guards, fill
out a very evenly balanced aggrega
tion and one which will be found
hprd to beat.
>The Kappa Delta Phis have some
fast men in Tetz and Anderson, for
wards; Martin, center, and Hermunz
and Saari, guards. The squad
hasn’t played many sensational
games of late and hasn’t been in
the limelight, but it is scrappy and
may surprise the fans by annexing
a victory from the strong A. T. O.
aggregation.
This is the last game in league
:“B” and with the "Big Tilt” to
morrow between the Betas and Fijis
will act as a grand windup for the
! donouglit basketball season this
| year.
