World of Sports Edited by Wilbur Wester FRANK RIGGS WINS THREE TITLES One of the outstanding features of the PjiHfic Northwest,^Associa tion wrestling and boxing tourna- | nient, held several weeks ago., was j the winning of three boxing titles 1 by Frank Riggs, a student of the University of Oregon. Riggs won the P. N. A. champion ship in the 147, 100 and the light heavyweight divisions. This is a very good record and probably will not be surpassed for some time. Riggs is fast and clever, and al- ! though he does not knock his op- j ponents out, he manages to be the aggressor. Tug Irvin, also a University stu- 1 dent, did not come out as well as j Riggs, since he lost his first bout. ; Tug injured his hand which kept him from advancing to the finals. | GRID TURNOUT LARGE AT NOTRE DAME Spring football training began at ■ Notre Dame two weeks ago with twelve full teams reporting for the j first, practice. If Knute Rockne ! does not select another champion- i ship aggregation from this squad i the odds will be against him. Only three or four veterans re- ! ported for the initial workout and they were placed in charge of . vari ous squads. Coach Rockne will j watch every recruit and anyone showing knowledge of the pigskin ! game will be kept on the squad.' From reports sent out from the Notre Dame camp the Irishmen are to repeat their performance of the post season. TRACK ENTERS INTO GRID PROGRAM Characteristic of the thorough ■ manner in which Coach Smith has 1 handled the present spring grid practice, is the new plan which the ! Oregon football mentor has adopted. Smith plans to have the ■ entire squad of grid candidates turn out | for track during the rest of the swing term. These men will be j placed under Bill Hayward and will j be given regular workouts on the cinder path. By giving the football men num- | crons pointers on starting and de- | velopirig speed, Bill Hayward hopes to develop the squad into an ex ceptionally fast aggregation. The ■ “quick starting” and speed de- ' veloppd on the track will be in- | valuable to the grid eleven in the I fall rmd will tend to make the Ore gon team one of the fastest teams in the conference. The football men will turn, out three times a week for the cus tomary training given to regular track candidates. This will in- j elude considerable time spent each day on “starts” and limbering-up bv circuiting the track several times, in addition to some time given over to developing speed in the sprints. Associated somewhat with this j form of general training given to grid candidates by track work, is the system used by Billy Reinhart in his baskeltballi coaching. The majority of Reinhart’s basketball players from the 1925 team are now spending some time each week training and getting into shape for next season. The candidates for ) the next hoop team have adopted the program which includes work- I outs three times a week with the I following methods of practice: ! Skipping rope, to develop speedy | foot work, several games of hand- i ball, and some time spent on tumbl- j ing. W. W. WASHINGTON EXPECTING ANOTHER CREW VICTORY Enthusiasm is running high at the University of Washington over the prospects of another national intercollegiate rowing champion ship. The University of Washing ton’s crew won the national cham pionship last year at the regatta at Poughkeepsie, New York, and are out to duplicate the feat this year. Crew is one of the major sports on the Washington campus and re cently the board of regents gave the University of Washington Al umni association permission to raise j $17,000 for the crew; $1.1,000 to be used for expenses. $2,000 for a new ! launch and $1,000 for emergencies. A balance of $1,308 from last year i is to be used in the fund. The crew is now training very j hard for the coming national meet, | having defeated their strongest ri- ‘ vals, California, several weeks ago. The national intercollegiate regatta will be held at Poughkeepsie. New York, in the early part of May. A i junior varsity erew will also be en-1 tered in this meet. Y.W.G.fl, CONVENTION TfiBLIGHT WORTH WHILE Northwest Officer Lauds State Cabinet Meet The Annual State Y. W. 0 .A. Cabinet Council proved worthwhile, both, to the delegates and to the leaders, is the opinion of Miss Elsip Heller, national secretary of the northwest field. The students “did some good thinking in this confer ence—thinking just as searching and splendid as I have found any place,” Miss Heller said in speak ing of the state conferences which she has been attending in Wash ington and Idaho as well as in Oregon. Two main problems were dis cussed Saturday forenoon, during the session which lasted from 9:00 to 11:30., Miss Katherine Seay, secretary of the Y. W. C. A. at Oregon Agricultural college con ducted the discussion upon this problem. She was followed by Miss Elsie Heller who presented the problem of the essentials of lead ership in a Christian association. At noon the delegates were guests of the local cabinet at a luncheon held at the Anchorage. The af ternoon session took up at 3:00 and the following two hours were de voted to national and international phases of Y. W, C. A. work. Jan elle Vandervort, chairman of the Seabeclt conference and a senior at Willamette university, gave a re port on the national meeting in New York at Christmas time, to which she was the northwest repre sentative. Miss Henrietta Thom son, chairman of the Friendly Re lations committee, for the Pacific slope, located at Berkeley, con ducted the discussion on the inter national work. A Seabeck picnic at which plans for the summer conference conven ing in Seabeck, Washington, June 23-July 3, was held at Coburg bridge in the evening at 6:00.

HINDU STUDENT PLANS Satya Loomba Studies Foreign Trade Here Satya Loomba, a Hindu student, who has graduated from Oregon Agricultural college where he took a course in fruit canning, and who is at present taking a course in for eign trade and other commercial subjects, at Oregon, smiled when asked to tell about his plans for his fruit cannery which he intends to have when he returns to India. Although Mr. Loomba’s home is in Punjab, his cannery will be lo cated in Kashmir, which is in the northern part of India. “There is very little canning done in India,” he declared. “Most of what is done is in small lots just for home use. There are three canneries in the country at pres ent. ” While in the state Mr. Loomba has visited every cannery in Ore gon and last summer lie worked for “I am going back home about the middle of .Tulv,” said Mr. Loomba. “On my way I will visit England, France, and Spain, and see their canneries. England has no other canneries for fruit than , those for jams anl marmalades. My father is a civil engineer in the employ of the government and by the time I will have returned he will have served for twenty-five v^ars and will be pensioned by the government. Then he will go into business with me.” 5 After EveryMealX Wrigley’s increase* the (low of saliva and relieves that “stuffed” feeling. Clears the throat, steadies nerves and sweetens the breath.

EBOTE BEGUN Ivan Houston, Joe Fraser Win From Stanford The decision for flic Oregon Stanford radio debate lield March 2-1, has been given to the Univer sity of Oregon, according to the votes sent in. A definite dead line has been set and no more votes are to be accepted. It is the second time the Uni versity debating team has won a radio debate. It was the second radio debate in history, too, where the two teams have been many hundred miles apart. * Last year the Oregon team won by a large majority over the Uni versity of California, by decision j of the radio fans. For certain reasons, the final j figures on the debate will not be i published. However, the Univer sity team won the debate. This announcement has been made after more than six weeks of silence on the subject. The Ore gonian had planned on making the announcement nearly a month ago, but. these results never were pub lished. The subject of debate was, “.Re solved. That the immigration act of 1924 should be amended so as to admit Japanese on the same basis as Europeans.” The Oregon team assembled in radio KGW of the Morning Oregonian; while the | Stanford team assembled in radio ] KXL of the Oakland Tribune. The debaters for Oregon were Ivan Houston and Joe Fraser. PATRONIZE EMERALD ADVERTISERS LEMON “O” BARBER SHOP Between ‘Club’ and ‘Obak’s’ on Willamette BERT VINCENT, Prop.
