Phone 1040 team, is ready to stop the fast, high scoring Burr, Aggie forward. Beinhart has seen the Aggies in action in all their conference games this season, and has lined up some plays that are expected to break up the percentage system of bas ketball used by Bob Hager, Beaver head coach. The main forte of the Aggie style is to pile up an effec tive lead' and then stall through the rest of the contest. Aggie Bear Story The first hard luck story has drift ed into Eugene from Corvallis. Carl Aase, reserve center, is on the hos pital list and will not be in condi tion to relieve Savory, regular pivot man, if it should become necessary. Bob Hager propaganda has also ar rived on the Oregon campus, and states that a “hidden threat” play will be used to baffle the Webfoot ers. Bill Beinhart’s basketball teams have defeated the Aggies six times out of the regularly scheduled Pa cific Coast conference games. The Beaver stalling game has not worked with outstanding success against the fast Webfoot teams coached by Beinhart. Montana will have a chance to as sert its claim to title honors tonight against the Huskies at Seattle. Washington must win or go into a tie witli Montana and the winner of the Oregon-Aggie game for first place honors.

Teague, guard, was the outstanding player for Eugene High. Both teams used numerous substitutes during the course of the game. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Feb. 3.—P. I.

C. stars in the first engagement of the 1928 Northwest intercolle giate schedule. This contest with the squad was cancelled several weeks ago, due to the failure of O. S. C. to provide a coach for her team, but Kerns, director of athletics, who will guide the destiny of the farm boys, has re scheduled the two con ference meets, in order, the Baro meter states, to provide competition in minor sports for the Webfooters. Pre-meet dope on ability of the two teams, concedes a generous win for the Lemon-Yellow mermen. The next meet with the 8taters will be held in Corvallis on March Ti. While definite dope on the water cleaving prowess of the Aggie men is not available at present, Edward F. Abercrombie, Webfoot coach, looks forward confidently to a 15-point margin. The strong Oregon team that defeated the Multnomah club in Portland on January 28 by a 24 point margin, is strengthened to night by the addition of Julian Smith, breast-stroke man, and bfc. cause Charles Silverman, entered in the 440-yard swim, has recovered from illness and is doped to take a first place in that event tonight.

Of course, we can and we do, but the outside world is not gullible. And the truth is that because we have the money, we know we can take lead ership and our program is not com petitive, because no one else can compete with us. But these things are hard to reconcile with the honey-coated words about “peace” and “world service” and “defending the rights of humanity,” which fre quently escape the lips of 1Jje mighty.

They Are Good Shoes, Men— Look Them Over at— 782 Willamette 782 Willamette Diplomatic Diction in Berlin HOTEL ADLON, BERLIN, GERMANY WO German diplomats, who had JL been at theUniversity of Bonn to gether, met in the foyer of the Hotel Adlon after a separation of some years. One of them had been at a South Amer ican capital ,one in the Orient. Eagerly they discussed old times and common memories, and they were still talking excitedly as they started to ward the Otis Elevator. When they reached the door, they paused,each wishing to give the other precedence. “But you must go first, my good friend,”one of them was heard to re mark. ‘‘I’m sure the ride will be a nov elty to you after so many years in the East, and 1 would not think of preced ing you.” “On the contrary,” answered the other,“I am insisting that you enter first. We lacked some things in the Ori ent, but the Otis, there as here, is in all the big shops andhotels.”“ We’d better squeeze in together, then, because South America, too, is well equipped! But wait a moment! You must go first, for I used the Otis on board the steamer every day!” “I, too! I will not be out done!” Starting forward together, they col lided at the door. One would have to travel farther than civilization, East or West, to find any novelty in that taken-for-granted convenience, the Otis Elevator.
