Reinhart, head
Bill Baker
coach of the dia
mond sport, yes
terday at the Pa
vilion.
And it seems
that “Billy” is
justified in mak
ing this most re
assuring assertion.
According to the
statistics column,
Oregon’s percent
age of victories
last baseball sea
son was quite low.
With the pitching stall ana the posi
tion of ...catcher considerably
strengthened, improvement is al
most certain. There were few grad
uations from the baseball squad
last springs and from all present in
dications there wiy be at least two
experienced men trying out for every
position.
Vast improvement is probable in
the pitching situation this year.
Bill Baker, veteran hurler, .is back
to play his last year. Last year
Bill ivas used in more games than
any other pitcher. His record was
good, but as Oregon hhd a negligible
reserve list of pitchers, the number
of wins had little in sympathy with
Bill’s record.
New Pitchers Out
“Curly” Fuller, Keynold McDon
ald, and Johnny Anderson are three
pitchers from last year’s frosh who
are expected to show well this sea
son. Art Sehoeni, a sub-pitcher from
last yeqr, James Gannon, a trans

pitcher last year, complete the list
of those available for mound duty.
Catchers expected to turn out are
Ira Woodie, Donald Speer and Cecil
Gabriel. Woodie won his letter last
year as understudy to Jack Bliss.
Bliss has graduated and is now on ;
the department of physical educa- |
tion payroll. Donald Speer and j
Cecil Gabriel from the froslr are due
to show up for practice.
At first base, “Les” Johnson is
to be back in his old place. Carl
Xelson, tall first sacker from last
year’s freshman team, will compete
with Johnson for first call on the
job.
“Gord” Ridings, basketball star,
is the only outstanding candidate
for second base. Some dark horses
may appear as soon as the season
starts, however.
Competition Keen at Short
For short-stop, Don McCormick
and Bill Eddy are back, and Ken
neth Robie, sophomore, will be out.
This will give that position plenty
of strength. -
Lynn Jones’ old place at third
base is open and there appears to
be but one candidate for the posi
tion, Dave Mason.
Varsity outfield 'candidates are
Dave Epps, Cotter Gould, Ray Ed
wards, Harry Dutton, and Wallace
Giles. The first four are all letter
men and Giles is up from the frosli.
Practice for varsity baseball as
pirants will start in about two
weeks, according to Reinhart. He
will not be able to take charge of
practice until then, due to his ac
companying the Oregon basketball
team north. While he is gone
pitchers and catchers are scheduled
to take occasional workouts indoors
to limber up.
Football Coach Calls
For Loaned Blankets
Captain John J. McEwan, coach
of football, has sent out a request
for all football men who borrowed
army blankets from him last night
to return them.
He explains that the blankets
were borrowed and that it is now
necessary for him to return them.
Oregon Tennis
Team To Play
Ladder Tourney
First Conference Match
To Be at Berkeley
In April
The Webfoot tennis players will
meet in a ladder tournament next
week in preparation for the open
ing of the conference season with
the University of California at
Berkeley, April 7.
Edward F. Abercrombie, Oregon
coach, has organized the tourna
ment to include all varsity candi
dates, freshman prospects, and sev
eral former Oregon stars. In order
to stay in the tourney each entrant
will be required to play at least
one match a week. Any player may
challenge two places above himself
on the ladder.
With five lettermen eligible from
last year’s squad, the outlook for
a winning team is fairly bright.
Abercrombie also has some promis
ing material reporting for the frosh
squad.
The following is the order in
which the players are arranged for
the ladder: Bradshaw Harrison,
Sherman Lockwood, Stanley Alm
quist, Henry Neer, Boy Okerberg,
Claro Hartman, Howard Shaw, Dick

Golf Urged as Minor
Sport by Lettermen;
Committee Appointed
The Order of the “0,” at a meet
ing yesterday, went on record as
favoring the consideration of making
golf a minor sport at the University
of Oregon.
As a further step in this matter
a committee was appointed by
Frank Riggs, president of tho let
termen, for the purpose of further
investigating the matter, and of
drawing up a list of requirements
for earning letters, eligibility rules,
etc.
Joe Standard, Ed Crowley, and
Mel Cohn are on this group. Crow
ley made a report on the attitude
of other institutions in regard to
the recognition of golf. He has
found golf to be a minor sport in
all the larger universities and col
leges in the west with the excep
tion of the University of Oregon.
There are a number of excellent
golfers on the campus at present,
and there arc a number of likely
prospects in the prep sfhools of
the state, especially in Portland,
and it is felt that they should be
given equal inducement at Oregon
that they would receive at other
schools.

The tilos wore made by last year’s
classes in pottery under the direc
tion of Victoria Avakian, bend of
the department of industrial arts in
the University school of architec
ture and allied arts.
The first panel, in which brighter
shades 'of blue, orange, and brown
predominate, was set two years ago,
Miss Avakian said, and the eight
niches in the wall surrounding the
little arts gallery are all to be set
with the cement tiles, eventually,
as the pottery classes complete the
number required for each panel.
The niche which has just been
filled shows rather deeper leones than
the other, with soft shades of pur
ple, green, and brown outstanding.
Miss Avakian explained that the
panels will be worked out in related
colors and patterns even though the
design of each individual panel will
vary somewhat from that of the
other. The tilos are made of cement
and do not require firing.
