Frosh Basketeers On Three Day Hoop Spree in South Infant Cagers On Southern Oregon Tour Ducklings Invade Medford Today for Contest With Preppers Ten Frosli Taken on Three Game Jaunt Klamath Falls To Be Host To Team Saturday T5v TTARRY BUTTON' Tlio University of Oregon’s duck ling lioopsters continue today on the second hop of their three-game southern Oregon basketball tour. Early this afternoon they will swing through the city ‘gates of Medford, the famous pear and apple center of lower Oregon. Last night the yearlings treated the inhabitants of Ashland, home of the recently established southern Oregon Normal school, to. an exhibi tion of fast basketball, when they went against the high school of that town on the Ashland floor. They remained in Ashland after the game last night. Today they will meet' a more highly touted quintet. Prink Calli son, ex-Univej'S'ity of Oregon ath lete, is coach of the Medforditcs, and has the reputation, built up from results, of turning out a high calibre of high school athletic teams. Medford. High Tonight The Oregon frosh Will have an added incentive to smear their prep opponents tonight, because of the fact tiiat during the recent freshman football season the Med ford eleven sent a duckling pigskin crew back to the Oregon campus on the short end of a 12 to G score. In the event of a frosh victorv 5n today’s game, and the frosh ex pect a win, this former football de feat will be somewhat assuaged. After the tilt the yearlings will probably repair to one of the Med ford hostclries for the night. Sat urday, to finish their week-end. schedule, the Wobfoot babes will double back over their tracks, again going to Ashland and on over the mountain range to Klamath Palls. Noivs reports say that over in this timber district the natives are en joying some real honest-to-goodness vinter weather. The thermometer has sunk below the zero mark, the lakes are frozen over, and snow shovels are in season. Ten Mon on Squad. How Spike Leslie and his 10 Ore gon infants will react when they hit this blustery clime is in dqubt. According to ‘frosh managers, no ear-muffs, mittens, arctics, and other winter weather accessories were packed with the yearling equipage. The strength of the Klamath high squad is also a mystery. It is un derstood that they grow the boys big and rough up around these wood ed hills. The freshmen loft yesterday at 8 a. m. They are making the trip by bus. The yearling eagers who are representing the Lemon-yellow stan dard in these three Oregon towns this wreek-end include Edwin Stod dard, Edward Dvorak, Clifford Hor ner, Windsor Calkins, Harold Olin-, gcr, Jerome Lillie, Paul Walgren, Jean Eberhnrt, A1 Makinen, and Woodward Archer. These games will be the last for the freshmen until their first con ference tilt when they meet the Washington husky babes on “Father and Son” day, January 28, as a preliminary to the regular Oregon Washington varsity game in Mc Arthur.

Life Saving Exam To Be Given Soon by Red Cross First Aid Chief A senior life saving examination will be held in the men’s gymnas ium during the first week in March for men wishing to pass the senior Red Cross life saving test. At the same time all those holding Fed Cross life saving examiner certifi cates must, be present to have them | tenewed. Mr. Terwilliger, head of the life saving work of the Fed Cross for Oregon, will conduct the examination. Mr. Herman Gawar, of the physi cal education department, desires to moot the above named people any afternoon after 3 o’clock at the gymnasium as soon as possible in order to determine a date for the test, so that Mr. Terwilliger may make up his schedule of examine-, tions. Life saving work has attracted a good share of attention from, phy sical education majors, Mr. Gawar announces, and there are plans un der way to establish a life saving corps here at the University. A senior certificate of ability at life saving work will prove of value to those students who plan to do phy sical education work, he stated. Salem Classes Begin With Good Prospects Salem extension classes have opened for the new term with very good jirospects, according to a re port given out by W. G. Beattie, director of the Salem Extension classes, who has just returned from Salem.

Sherman of the Willamette Uni versity will be under the instruc tion of Prof. J. W. Sutherland, Uni versity of Oregon. Dr. Sherman is compelled to give up his classes on account of sickness in his family. Golf Discussed As Minor Sport j Bv Order of 40*! J __ Marshal Is Appointed to Keep Reserved Seats For Lettermen Golf as a minor sport was one of tiro subjects of discussion yester day at an Order of the ‘‘O'’ meet ing in the Men's Gym. No definite action was taken at the meeting as no golf representatives were pres ent. The feeling seems to lie that there are a number of good golfers in school and some sort of recognition should be provided for them. It would also help in attracting other divot diggers to the University. Sport in Other Schools Stanford University, the Univer sity of California, and the Univer sity of Washington, are said to hold golf as a minor sport. Golf is a popular game, and its influence is growing. Some feel that it would be a good thing for the University to pioneer the move to recognize golf in the institutions of higher learning in the state of Oregon. Ed Crowley and .foe Standard were appointed by President Frank Biggs to investigate both sides of the is sue, and have some golf players present at the next mooting of the lettermen, to talk over qualifica tions, etc. Mcunuocn is marsnai The Older of tlie “O”, feeling that steps should be taken to better preserve the sanctify of the letter men’s reserved seat section at the basketball games, elected Ralph Mc Culloch, “marshal of the- “O” for these oeeasions. He will be respon sible for the presence of a reinforced paddle in this.block of seats at all games. He also will have various and sundry other duties in the exe cution of this office. Meryl Hagen was appointed to see that the letterman’s seating space is well marked off preceding each game that no errant frosh who wan ders into those sacred precincts will be able to alibi himself out of “as suming the angle.” j Other business brought up con cerned the Order of the “O” Smoker to be held on the night of the April Frolic. Lettermen were warned that after Saturday they would not lie able tc get pictures in the “O” section of the Oregana. Congratulatory spats were administered to Vic Wet zel, newly elected track captain, dur ing intermission. Idaho (Continued from page one) Ingram, ex-Gonzaza star, were on the,Brownson Motor company five, Coach Fox’s proteges succeeded in wresting a 31 to £8 victory from them. • « » A retrospect on the Inst two lias keilfall games, Gonzaga and Whit man, reveals the fact that the Ore gon team, as a whole, is not making a good percentage of its shots. In the Gonzaga contest Oregon attempt ed Sd field goals and converted but 2It. The Whitman game saw the Webfoots shooting at (lie basket do times and converting 10. The av erage for tho- two contests is .'271. Gordon Ridings, varsity forward, still leads the Webfoots in scoring. Out of 4.1 tries in the Gonzaga and Whitman conflicts, lie converted 14 field goals for an average of .1126. Scotty Milligan, center, is second to Ridings in scoring, with five baskets out of IS attempts for a .278 average. Scotty Milligan, who had played but one game at center, had a real test in the Whitman game. lie per formed his .job fairly well but will have to jump higher than he is now. Holmgren, Missionary center, was a little taller than Milligan and suc ceeded in getting the tip-off. The fact that the Missionaries got the tip-off can help account for their successful offensive. They had tho ball in their possession a great per cent of the time. To have had the tip-off would have materially aided i Oregon in the last two minutes of play when a basket was needed for victory. Idaho Yandals Plan Big Oregon Invasion; O.S.C. Opening Game UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO,'.Tan. 19. — (P.I.P.)-*—Three conference games, the first of the season for the Van dals, are to be played away from home this week and next by a squad of ten men who will accompany Coach Fox and James Keith, man ager, on the coast, trip beginning Wednesday. Friday evening the lid will be lifted on the conference season at Corvallis where the Idaho Vandals meet Oregon State College. O. S. "C. recently defeated Whitman "by a narrow margin and indications point to a tough scrap for the Vandals. The next evening the squad will go to Eugene and play Oregon, last year’s champions, on their own floor. Although Oregon lost two of her best men by graduation, it is still considered the class of the confor I once. The last game of the series will be played in Seal tie, February 24, with the University of Washington as the opponents of the Idaho five. Washington has defeated Whitman and during the holidays took two games of a three game series from the University of Illinois five to ded icate the new Washington gymnas ium. Coach Fox has not announced the squad that will make the trip but it is expected that the ten men who made the holiday trips will be given the first call.

Debate League Enters Twentieth ■ Year of Activity Great Season Expected By Dan E. Clark, Secretary The 1907-2S debat ing season marks the twentieth year in which the Oregon High School Debating League has carried on its work of enlivening thought and clarifying civic and state'issues in high school communities in every corner of the state. The long arm of the Uni versity Extension Division lias reached out annually during this score of years, and organized, di rected, alTd fostered the work in inter-pity and inter-district debate between high schools. In the opinion of Dan K. Clark, assistant director of the University Extension Division, who is secre tary of the league, the coming year promises to be one of great activity in the organization. “Many schools arc going to Join the league this year r?ho have not participated before, ’’said Mr. Clark. “This is largely duo to the fact that they have new teachers who are interested in debate and are willing to. give a part of their time to it outside of the regular routine of their work. Debating in the high schools is entirely dependent on the attitude which the faculty members bear towards if. Where they are enthusiastic boosters of debate, there is usually a corresponding en thusiasm engendered in the students. We are glad to note that more and more of the teachers entering serv ice in the high schools arc taking an active interest in debate work.” The state is divided up into eleven districts for convenience in staging the debates. A series of cpiostions is decided on by the ex ecutive council of the league, and one is assigned to each district. The first - debates of tlio year are be tween various cities within the limits of the districts. When the winners have been determined in each district a. series of inter-dis trict debates nro held to eliminate part of the contestants. Finally the nnnunj state contest is held by the winners of the various inter district contests. This is held at various cities about t lie state. There are several cups presented to Mio winners of tho state debate, l'rofpssor Edgar DcCoit of the Uni versity of Oregon, first secretary of the debating league some twenty years ago, is offering a eup which must be won tliree times to secure permanent possession. Ashland has won it twice already. Chicago Angles for Olympics as Part of World Fair in 1933 (By United Tress) CITTCAGO, Jan. 10.—Chicago to day planned the greatest sports carnival in tho world's history, to he held in 191'd! as an added attrac tion tg the world’s fair. Plans are under way to hold tho Olympic games here at that time. Chairman Rufus C. Dawes of the fair committee has been authorized t, appoint a sports committee to negotiate tV’r the games. The Olympics would be only one of several sport headliners. A heavy weight championship bout would be another. The world’s series and an intersect ional game between two leading football teams would add interest. However, in order to obtain the Olympics, a postponement of one voar of the 19112 games ■must be made. If Chicago can bring about this postponement of the .19112 Olym pics it would afford the first op jjrtnnity which the United States lias had to see the games since 1901 when they were held in St. Louis, the only city in this country which has sponsored them. Dean C. E. Carpenter Speaks in Portland Charles E. Carpenter, dean of the University law school, delivered an address on “Law Reform” before a meeting of the Oregon district at torneys held January 12 in Port land. Ability, Not Weight To Decide Matching Of Boxing Tourney Exponents of fistinna on the pam pas are shy, very sliy, if tlio un signed list for the boxing tourna ment to bo hold February 20, 21 and 20 at 4 p. in., oneh afternoon in tho moil 's gymnasium is an index of tho valor of tho leatherpushers. While a good many of the fighters have signified their intention of compet ing to boxing instructor Herman On war, there is a general hesitation about putting names upon the list. Mr. Oawar believes this is duo to some misunderstanding about the way in which matches will be made. He wishes to announce that matches will be made according to tho fight ing ability of the boxers and not according to weight. Some of tho men who are holding back because ot the fear of getting their visages scarred by some cleverer boxers, will welcome this announcement, says Coach Oawar. The final date of entry for tho meet has been set for February. The preliminaries will be fought on February 20 and 21 at 4 p. m., and the finals are scheduled for tho same hour oil Wednesday, February Ghost of Veto Scares Farm Bloc Members (Bv United Press) WASHINGTON, I).
