    Hoop Games
For Holiday
Season Set
Casaba Bouncers Will
Contend 5 Times on
Southern Trip
New Pavilion Ready
For Team Announced
Several Basketeers Fear
Eligibility Rule
PLANS are rapidly being formu
lated for Oregon’s coming hoop
season.
A telegram from Jack Benefiel
in California yesterday contained
the schedule for the Webfoots barn
storming tour during the Christmas
holidays; and Coach Billy Reinhart
announced that the squad would
move into its new pavilion within
a week.
This year’s holiday jaunt will not
start until after Christmas, and will
include but five games. The squad
will go no further south than San
Jose. Ten men will probably be
taken.
The first game is scheduled for
December 27 against the Olympic
club quintet of San Francisco. After
three days’ rest, the Webfoots will
meet the San Jose Golds at San
Jose. The Amblers club of Stock
ton 'will be played the next day,
January 1. The Auburn club and
the P. A. T. club of Grass Valley
will wind up the journey. These
games are billed for January 3 and
4 respectively.
Pavilion Ready
Oregon’s new $175,000 basketball
pavilion is now almost ready for
occupancy. The spring floor is es
pecially designed, and will undoubt
edly be the best of its kind on the
coast. The floor is large enough to
furnish ample practice space.
. While it is yet early to predict
Oregon’s lineup next fall, it is cer
tain that Reinhart will put out one
of his best teams. The final exam,
inations present the biggest worry
now, as several boys who figure to
appear prominently in the lineups
next winter, are having trouble with
the guarding of Mr. Eligibility, and
the coming final examinations may
raise havoc. The men affected real
ize this, and are spending plenty of
kilowatts with their noses applied
to thick tomes.
Reserves Tin *ear
Prom all present indications, the
1927 Oregon basketball team will
be a thing of pride and joy that will
be remembered for many a day.
Reinhart has been on hand long
enough to get his system thoroughly
installed, and he has material in
sufficient abundance this yen- ‘i
assure ample reserve strength. Fans
will remember that last spring
Swede Westergren gave himself up
to a little private debauch on crab
a la Louis, and as a result was a
very sick young man. No suitable
reserves were on hand, and Oregon
took it on the proverbial chin when
she jousted for coast honors with
the Golden Bears of California.
Grdon Ridings and Clare Scallon,
former frosh luminaries, are the
favorites just now to fill in at the
places lately occupied by Charles
Jost and Howard Hobson. Ridings
a bit new at the game, collegiate
jy speaking, but has the technique
to mix it, and has a good eye for
the doughnut. Scallon is a pretty
nifty casabn bouncer himself, and
can be depended upon to cash in
his share of tries for the not. Scal
lon ’s floor work is a delight to the
initiated observer, while Ridilngs
loses no time working the ball into
an advantageous position.
Competition Strong
These boys haven ’t any monopoly
of their positions by any means,
and either one of them or both could
fall by the wayside without impair
ing Oregon’s championship hope to
a large extent. Arnie Kiminki, a
humdinger of a forward, will re
enter school next quarter, and
should help ReinharVs hearties. Ray
Edwards, a big Tarzan, plays the
game in creditable fashion, and
seems to get better with every prac
tice. Pat Hughes, another big boy
who looks to mix, is out once more.
He was coming fast when the sea
son ended this spring.
j Campus Politics Cause
Kansas Football Team
To Lose Grid Games
NEW YORK—(By New Student
Service)—While the voice of the
politician is heard throughout the
land, the campus statesman’s voice
is no less audible on many a college
campus. Student councelors are be
ing asked in the colleges, as well as
class officers, and the season of bick
ering and deals is on.
At the University of Kansas foot
ball players who are also candidates
for offices played at political in
trique so vigorously that they neg
lected the more muscular game and
caused their university to lose. In
fact, it is said that political fac
tions split the football team asunder
and rendered it impotent on the field.
'At least such is the charge of Chan
cellor Lindley who rebuked the ath
letic politicians publicly at convo
cation.
Shortly afterward the football men
withdrew their candidacies, by re
quest of Coach F. C. Cappon. As
a result there will be no attempt to
hold election until football season
is over. ,
As usual there is much talk of
cliques and combines. The Boston
University News frankly admits
their existence:
“The fact that clique politics ex
ists cannot be denied. If one frat
ernity is not strong enough to swing
the whole election, it combines with
one or two others of the same
strength, and these, sometimes by
affiliating with one or two non
fraternity men, manage to control
the entire workings/ of a class or
organization. And once the clique
gets in control it runs affairs to
suit itself, behind closed doors
which bear the sign, “No admit
tance.” •
The News is in favor of a ben
evolent despotism. Its editorial con
cludes: “It is far better that the
clique run things to suit itself, for
if every member of the class was
to be consulted on everything the
organization would eollapse and
nothing would be accomplished. If
a elique can run the affairs of the
class in a smooth manner it is to
be given a vote of thanks and not
eensured for its lack of democracy.
We favor clique politics because (1)
it is more efficient; (2) it is inev
itable, and (3) it gives us something
to talk about.”
Men's Pentathlon Swim

A pentathlon swimming meet is to
he the feature of this week’s swim
ming program. The event will take

Yengthening of Period Is
Idea Presented by*
Pres. Hall
The contributions of the Univer
i sity to the Eugene Chamber of
| Commerce in their recent-drive for
raising a development fund for the
j upbuilding of the community total
' ed $571. Carlton E. Spencer, regis
, trar, was chairman, or' “team cap
1 tain,” of the 'committee appoint
, ed to canvass the campus for funds.
Others -on the committee were Dean
W. O. Hale, "Dean E. C. Bobbins,
jDean. H. Landsbilry, Dr. W. D.
Smith, Dr..Dan E. Clark, and Prof.
O. E. Stafford.
One item' particularly is of in
terest to the University in the pro
posed schedule of the Chamber of
Commerce. This is the assistance
which is to be given to* President
Hall’s program for summer school
development. With the funds avail
able after this drive, the summer
session may be increased to a term
of 11 or 12 weeks, and it is the be
lief of President Hall that this ex
tension, with the greater privileges
which will come with it, will bring
many people to the University from
the east.
The Morning Register quotes Ma
rion Yeatch, president of the organ
ization, on the advantages of draw
ing students from the east. He says,
“After a cool, comfortable summer
spent at the, University with a side
trip up the McKenzie to the Three
Sisters, to Crater Lake and down
the Florence highway to the coast,
these students will go back to their
homes in the east praising Oregon
and Eugene, and will do more to i
put Eugene on the map than two or;
three carloads of literature scatter
ed over the east.”
The committee handled the work!
by means of a circular letter sent
out to members of the University, in j
which they stated the purpose of the
drive, and said in part:
“Qne of the main projects is as-!
sistance for the University’s sum-!
mer school program as outlined by;
President Hall for which the Cham
ber of Commerce has set aside $5000
a year. Some of the other projects,
are as follows: Industrial Surveys
and Research, Boys’ and Girls’ Club
Work, Willamette and Market Road
Support, State and County Fairs,
Eugene and Lane County Advertis
ing, Oregon Development work.
“This locality does not have a
community chest. Consequently sep
arate appeals must necessarily be |
made. The amount to be used by
the Chamber for University pur
poses will exceed many times that
contributed.”
The Morning Register points out
that “three years ago the Chamber;
raised the subscription to the de
velopment to $12,000 a year for a
three-year period. With the terminal
in, the new railroad over the Cas- ]
cades completed and seven or eight
thousand more inhabitants since
three years* ago, the Chamber is pre
paring to put over some /larger
deals.”
