field, scoring 14 points for tho Wcb
foots. He was closely seconded by
Scotty Milligan with 11. Milligan,
by the way, played a whale of a
game. Starting the tilt at center
but dropping back to his old guard
position when “Pioneer” Reynolds
was sent into tho fray, Scotty was
all over tho floor, both on the of
► fensive and defensive. Don Mc
Cormick, guard, demonstrated Mis
dead-eye for shooting fouls when
he dropped four in without a miss.
Kain Scores 11 for Montana
Sam Kain, Montana center, led
the losers in scoring with 11 mark
ers. Eddie Chinsko kind of stole
some of the thunder from his part
ner at forward. Overturf, until last
night, was second high point scorer
in the northwest division of the
conference, but it was Chinske who
starred for the Montanans. Bankin
played a good defensive game.
Overturf started the big scoring
guns of the Grizzlies right after the
opening tip-off. Chinsko soon fol
lowed suit, and within the first
minute of play Montana had scored
four points. Overturf then scored
one point off Ridings’ foul. After
three minutes of play Milligan broke
the ice and scored a field goal. Kain
dropped one- in from the side lines

and Overturf matfe it 9 to 2 with
another. At this juncture McCor
miek started converting a few
points and before he got through
had scored four points. Both sides
scored until Epps tied the score, 11
all, with two points on Wendt’s
foul, after 14 minutes of play. Back
and forth they fought the last six
minutes, with the Montana hoop
team ringing up one more point than
the Webfoots. Score at half time,
Montana 18, Oregon 17.
Milligan Puts Oregon in Lead
Scotty Milligan, who broke the
Oregonian’s missing streak in the
first half, put Oregon in the lead
for the first time shortly after the
beginning of the second half with
a beautiful field goal. Jlere the
Webfoots made a spurt and scored
five points when Milligan scored on
Chinske’s foul and dropped in a
field goal. Hidings scored another
basket.
With a 26 to 20 lead the Web
foots fought hard to maintain the
advantage, but with two and a half
minutes of play and a 35 to 31 score,
Kain, Montana center, dropped in a
long one. Hidings soon made the
victory safer by converting a foul.

“If a respectable man, should say
aloud everything that passes in
his heart, he would force all the
ottfer respectable men to flee from
him and from themselves hearing
horv well they agree upon unspeak
able villainies.”
“The sky is only the sky but one
may imagine infinity behind a

of spectacles one can imagine a
look that probably indicates a
brain.” x
These are two of the m'any phil

a translation from the Italian.
All the “gory details” of a bull

“The Promised Land” is a trans

'Wonders of The Trail’ Learned by
Fortner Oregon Boy on Long Tour
Miami Proves Most Beautiful City on Journey;
Basketball Publicity Recounted
That Billy Reinhart’s men are
gaining publicity in Alabama; that
eastern fraternities are just as cor
dial as western ones; that New
York has better traffic regulations
than Los Angeles, and that Prince
ton University is in a town no big
ger than Springfield—all these are
impressions brought back to Oregon
by Hubert Veltum, who finished a
pre-engineering course at the Uni
versity last June, and then started
out with Harold Baughman on a
tour of eastern schools to find some
place to complete his course.
They returned last week, after
more than four months’ bouncing
over macadam, pavements, and gum
bo mud.
Ford Carries Burden
With a special-built Ford, cut- I
down top, adjusted for absolute
riding comfort, and a “three to one”
gear in the rear, they weathered
the trip in high spirits, bucking the
Kansas mud, and arriving in Chi
cago in record time. The thing that
struck their fancy most in the
Windy City was the Buckingham
Memorial Fountain, with marvellous
iridescent lights, which the city is
building at a cost of two and a
half million dollars. Also, the swift
pace of the traffic, which on the
boulevards goes as high as 45 miles
an hour. •
Next, by Detroit and Henry Ford’s
plant, and on through the east, past
Niagara Falls, which Hubert de
clares is not half the marvel people
picture it; and so on to New York
City, which they reached December
7. Followed a rapid maze of ex
periences mid job-hunting fun,
everywhere from Arthur Murray’s
school of dancing: to various and
sundry machine shops. They saw
Grant’s tomb, heard Waring’s
Pennsylvanians on Broadway, and ;
then went on past the dinginess of
Philadelphia to Washington, D. C.
By some fluke of bad luck they j
missed their interview with Presi
dent Coolidge; but as to hobnobbing ;
with presidents, they took tho next
best .thing—a trip to Mount Ver
non.
Washington Relics Seen
There they were treated to a j
glimpse of the bed in which Wash
ington died, and the further privi
lege of seeing his old iron foot
warmer, which is shaped something
like a long-handled corn popper.
After that, the two students fol
lowed down the coast line through
the Carolinas, stopped at a few of
the colleges to take in fraternity
dances, and then to the panhandle
of Florida, where a few effects of
the land boom still remain. Names I
of streets were staked out miles
from the city to which they be
longed, and all the land between
had been sold by New York sharks.
When asked what city he consid
ered the most beautiful on his trip,
Hubert answered “Miami,” without
hesitating. He found that some of
the hotels charge as high as $120
a night. Another instance of graft
was when a certain attractive sign
held out the invitation, “Take This
Road,” and on taking it, tho gulli
ble traveler finds himself faced by
a toll-station which extracts $2—

Think of the
confusion - -
if advertised products followed
this Soviet law
Recently the Soviet Government passed a law
that anyone over 2 1 could change his name as
often as he pleased. Old friends you have known
for years as Smith', Brown and Green, might be
called Orloski, Potoski and Obovitch overnight.
• Think of the confusion!
Even suppose your favorite shoes, drug sun
dries, clothes, automobiles and phonographs
suddenly had their names changed! Would you
not feel almost a stranger in a clothing, drug or
dry-goods store that was stripped of the familiar
faces of advertised products?
Like an old friend—you have confidence in
the trustworthiness of an advertised product.
Years of frank publicity have made its name a
synonym for full value. You and thousands of
other people are proving th'is value every day.
The well-known names of advertised products
are your best guide to wise purchases. Read the
advertisements to see when and where to get
them.
To know what is advertised is to
know what is best in the
market place
