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.”

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. Whether
Washington will again be able to
cop the world’s championship re
mains to be seen. With the return
of Walter Johnson, star twirler, to
the fold. Manager Harris has a
strong pitching staff. 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?

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.

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.”

convenient for committee meetings
and so forth. 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.”

It Makes a
Difference
WHERE YOU EAT
and
WHAT YOU EAT
When you eat at the Oregana
it does make a difference. 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. Miss Butterfield ia really
a westerner, her home being in En
terprise, Oregon. She is a member
of Delta Zeta.
