At the close of every basketball season it is customary for all-star teams to be picked. The writers do not expect the readers to agree with them, in fact, they hope they do not. Disagreement is usually cause for argument. As baseball and track are more than a month distant, a friendly discussion and interchange of opinion would take the edge off a dull season. Further more, it fills space, and the meal tickets for most of the scribes de pend entirely on how much stuff the city editor does not throw in the basket. * * » The first all-star team to make its appearance was published in the Eugene Guard this week. It se lected two Oregon players, Oker berger, center, and Westergren, guard; two Oregon Aggie players, Stoddard, guard, and Ridings, for ward; and one Washingtonian, Hes keth, forward. BILL MULLIGAN’S TEAM NAMES WESTERGEEN Bill Mulligan of Spokane, who umpired yesterday’s Oregon-Aggie game, picked an all-northwest con ference team. He selected a Gon zaga player at forward instead of Hesketh; Ulman of Montana at center, instead of Okerberg; and Hale of Washington, guard, instead of Stoddard. Both writers picked Hidings and Westergren. As Mulligan is from Spokane, he naturally would be expected to se lect at least one Gonzaga player. Otherwise, perhaps, he would not be so popular with the Spokane folks. As it is, the vanity of the Spokan ites is completely satisfied. OREGON PLATERS HIGH IN SCORING Okerberg is selected by the Eu gene Guard because he is: “By far the best center. He seldom misses a “cripple” and has out jumped every center he has faced this year. He leads the league in scoring with 91 points, shooting 33 baskets and converting 25 foul throws. He has been watched closer than any other man in the conference, including Ridings and Hesketh. Okerberg is said to have established a high point record in the Northwest con ference.” Westergren was chosen, because, according to the writer: “He has no equal at guard. He probably is the fastest guard in the conference and his ability to shoot baskets has been one of the features of the large scores Oregon . has been run ning up this season.” Points scored by the all-stars fol low: Okerberg .33 Hesketh .35 Westergren ....30 Ridings .33 Stoddard .15 Field Foul Total Goals Throws Points 25 91 8 78 16 76 7 73 3 33 —rSam Wilderman. SCORE SYSTEM IN WRESTLING NEEDS CHANGE .. The fact that the Pacific coast conference wrestling meets have no definite accepted method of scor ing has been brought out during the meets among the colleges of the coast. During the meet with O. A. C. at Corvallis, held last Monday, al though Oregon lost by a score of 70 to 8 there was no definite strength given of the varsity in the scor ing. Coach Reed of O. A. C. and Coach Widmer of Oregon got together and decided to try to have a system adopted that would be uniform and prevent disputes. Under the pres ent rules it is possible to figure meets any one of three ways; three points for a fall, two for a deci sion, and one for each man in a draw. Or, some figure five for fall, four for decision and three apiece for draws. The method that is favored by Coaches Widmer, and Eeed of O. A. C. is to give eight points to the winner of a fall, six to winner of decision and three to each man in a draw. Both mentors believe this method should be standardized for the benefit of the public and also will aid the newspaper writers to all get the same score. The best method to bring about the change for next year is for the various coaches to communicate with each other before the opening for the season next year. Another rule that is becoming absolute is the length of time an opponent must be on top to win the bout. In the rules no definite time limit is set. Before meets the coaches must get together and set a time limit. That is if it is agreed that a man must have a 30 second advantage over his opponent he wins the bout. Often it is left up to the discretion of the referee. It is important that a definite time should be set in the rules. JAKE SCHAEFER AGAIN WINS TITLE During the past week the 18.2 balkline billiard world’s champion ship has been in progress. Young Jake Schaefer for the second time won the crown from Willie Hoppe who has held it for 17 years. From all indications time is beginning to tell on the retiring champion for he did not put 'up his nsual strong jjame. In the tournament Schaef fer also set a world's record by running 400 points from the spot. FANDOM TURNS TO DIAMOND GOSSIP The sport pages of the metropoli tan papers arei beginning to carry thhe news of the baseball training of the organized teams.

The big question is—will the Senators let the championship go to their heads and not repeat or will they forget the past and work for the future? —Pete Laura. Students, Although Blind, Find Reaston to Smile Bobbins and Scoville see World Through Veil of Darkness They smile. Through a veil of eternal dark ness—though they are not permit ted to see the happy things around them—they smile. Ed. Bobbins and Ellis Scoville are blind, but they smile. Pass them on the street or cam pus and they are smiling. They make the best of their lot. They do not ask, nor want, sympathy. They require no special favors. They recite in classes just the same as any student—and usually much better than some. They are learning to see the world through the eye of a trained intellect. The other day they were in a restaurant, dining and talking to gether. One said: “You ought to take some psychology, it’s great.” “Yes, I’d thought of that.” “I got into a heated argument with my reader over—” and he ex plained some point which had seemed ludicrous to him. They both laughed. It was a hearty laugh, and each meant it. One reached into his pocket and produced cigars. “Here, light up.” "Thanks.” Then they started talking and laughing again and rose to leave. With no hesitation they found their way to the cashier and out the door. Before the door had closed laughter was heard again from both. They walked toward the campus together—smiling. Y. W. TO GIVE ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP BANQUET The annual membership banquet of the Y. W. C. A. will be held at the College Side Inn next Tuesday evening from 5:30 to 7:30. An nouncements of results of the elec tion of next year’s officers will be made; toasts and music will com plete the program. All who wish to attend the ban quet are urged by Miss Magowan to secure their tickets early as only 150 can be entertained. Beatrice Peters is in charge of the tickets, which will be fifty cents. “I want to stress particularly the fact that girls not living in organized halls and houses are to come to the bungalow for their tickets, as I have a number here on reserve for them,” shhe stated. Y. W. VISITOR GIVES IMPRESSIONS OF WEST “One of the nicest things which comes from being a wandering soul is discovering how much alike peo ple are,” said Miss Grace Looks, of New York, expert on Y. W. C. A. discussion group work, who is now visiting the campus and hold ing discussions with groups of Y. W. C. A. women. Miss Louks is visiting the Pacific coast for the first time. “I like it very much,” she said, “although it is not as dif ferent from the east as I had ex pected.” EL CIRCULO CASTELLANO GUESTS OF FRATERNITY A large number of students turned out for the Sigma Delta Pi play, "La Broma,” which was pre sented Wednesday night, on the program given by the national fra ternity in honor of El Cireulo Cas tellano, campus Spanish elub. Other numbers on the program were a so lo, by Augusta Hamilton, accom panied by Vivian Harper, and a talk, outlining the work and pur pose of Sigma Delta Pi, by Hnlda Guild The characters of the Spanish comedy, were all played by mem bers of the fraternity. The meet ing was held at the Y. W. C. A. bungalow. Refreshments were served after the program.

It would be impos sible to hold meetings in the even ings as is the custom here, because all students do not have their resi dences in Evanston, but live at home in Chicago and its suburbs, Miss Butterfield pointed out. “Here you have your own little community with little outside influ ence,” she asserted. “Ton take i interest in the speakers who come from other parts of the country and yon turn ont well for their lectures. Northwestern being so near Chica go, the student often becomes in different to his environment. Chi cago is a University for graduate work and many go there for just that, but Northwestern combines the academic and social life.” Social sports are as much a part of the student life in Northwestern as here, said Miss Butterfield. “You have your mill race; we have our Lake Michigan.” “I like your ‘hello’,” she con tinued, “we tried it at Northwest ern but it would not work. “There is one thing that I have noticed at Northwestern which seems not to exist here, at least it is not very evident,” said she, “that is a rather large sized body of liberal minded people-. They aTe not radical, neither are they con servative. They form the most for ward thinking group on the cam pus.” “The lack of co-operation between DECORATING For that big dance you will need some paint, bright colors will help put it over, we carry a very complete line of water, oil and bronze colors in many different shades, brushes, oils, etc. And then after the dance you will need some Avax to brighten up the floors.

You’ll find George’s cooking just the right sort for a campus lunch. The Oregana men and women is another thing in which the two universities differ,” said Miss Butterfield. “At North western there seems to be closer understanding between them while here at Oregon women are not al lowed to be as active. I certainly miss the girls being able to par ticipate in the organized cheering though they do their part in the unorganized yelling,” she aaid. “As my alma mater I think that Northwestern is fine, bnt I do think that there ia an advantage in at* tending my home university," aha declared.
