    Practice For
Tennis Starts
Ladder Tournament Play
To Be Held on Outside
Courts, Says Coach
Spring's apparent arrival has
caused Coach Abercrombie to an
nounce that all future tennis prac
tice will be held outside. In times
•of inclement weather, the racquet
wielders may practice fundamentals
in McArthur court, but under no
circumstances are any more matches
to be held there.
Ladder tournament play will bo
resumed shortly oh the outside
courts, the players preserving the
same rating they hold at the pres
ent time. The four top jungs of
the ladder arc now held in the fol
lowing order: “Sherm” Lockwood,
first; “Brad” Harrison, seeond;
Stanley Almquist, third; and Henry
Neer, fourth. Okerberg and Shaw
are not far behind, and on the out
side court may be able to displace
some of the leaders.
Tennis competition for the var
srity will be exceptionally severe
this year. Arrangements have just
been completed for the Oregon rac
quet-wielders Vto meet California,
U. S. C.. and Stanford on three suc
cessive days, April 5f 0, and 7, at
the Berkeley tennis' club courts. Al
though this series of hard contests
is a distinct disadvantage to the
Lemon-Yellow * aggregation, Aber
crombie hppes to take at least two
of the opponents down to defeat.
Heustis, Gabriel Win
Fast Handball Games
Twenty-two to twenty; twenty
two to twenty; and Professor Hues
tis and Alton Gabriel held the long
eud of the score. They were play
ing Jack Bliss and Herman Gawer
ir the finals of the_ doubles hand
ball tournament. They won but
they arc not yet the champs for they
must take on the champions of the
consolation round, and they may
meet Bliss and Gawer again.
While it lasted it was some battle.
Ball after ball came out from the
bottom board of the front wall with
out a murmur. At present Gabriel
is nursing a bruised right hand
which he received at the end of the
first struggle. He kept on pound
ing the sphere but his floor ball was
noticeable by^-its absence, for he
was favoring his injured appendage.

State College Orators
Thrilled by Mexicans
OREGON STATE COLLEGE,
March 2.—(P.I.P.)—“Feet, do your
work, let’s move,” commanded W.
A. Dahlberg, coach of the Oregon
State transcontinental debate team,
as a shot fired bv a drunken Mexi
can whizzed over his shoulder and
buried itself in the wall beside him.
This happened a few minutes be
fore the team’s departure from Tuc
son, Arizona, where there had al
ready been two holdups and a pis
tol duel on the university campus.
Dahlberg’s attempt to explain his
presence with a university profes
sor in the Mexican section at mid
night received a merry laugh.
“Cheap—only $5,” dickered a
wizened Mexican curio dealer, iii
bartering with Grant McMillan, de
bater, regarding a “six-bit” Oregon
made woolen scarf, already must
with age. “Mac” didn’t buy it.
A wise remark ut'tered by Roger
Ball, another debater, nearly worked
havoc with the team and manager
at the U. S. C. debate, when he re
marked that his sore throat and in
ability to make himself heard was
due to the results of southern Cali
fornia weather. He urged the au
dience to come to the front and
they did.

Oregon Matmen
Hold First Meel
Friendly Contest Planned
To Renew Sport
Ouce more Oregon State College
and the University athletes have
met, but not in one of those old
traditional basketball, football, or
intercollegiate contests. Last eve
ning, in a friendly gathering, rep
resentatives from O. S. C. met
Coach Widmer’s most select 18
wrestlers in the men’s gymnasium.
Reese Wingard, score keeper, in
introducing the wrestlers, the
coaches, and the purpose of the
meet, said, “This evening we are
haying a little competition just as
a matter of good will, and to fur
ther the ideals of wrestling.”
Chet Newton, who is volunteer
coach at O. S. C., is working with
his boys to stimulate interest
enough in wrestling to bring it
back as a conference sport. Ho
said, “Although ,it is not as spec
tacular as the team games, it is a
good intercollegiate sport and
should be recommended as such. We
believe, from the interest showin
tonight, that it is a justifiable sport
and should be reinstated. The
match this evening was undoubtedly
valuable in stimulating interest in
intercollegiate wrestli ug. ”
Earl (Dutch) Widmer, the well
known Oregon coach, was of the
opinion that, “Some means were
necessary to reincarnate the death
of conference wrestling in Oregon
and among the coast states in gen
eral,” and that a friendly bout was
the best medium to accomplish this.
The evening’s match was refer
eed by George Gayer, assistant O.
S. C. wrestling coach. The first
bout was between Van Der Vlugt
of Oregon and Pettit, O. S. C.,
weighing 127 and 125 pounds; next
Willison, 111, of Oregon, met Far
rar, 117, of O. S. C.; then Riehl,
128, of Oregon, took- Newton, 129,
of O. S. C. for a full 10-minute tus
sle; this w’as followed by Arnold,
138, of Oregon, and Wishart, 137,
O. S. C.; Britt, UoVa, of O. S .C.,
and Klein, 140, Oregon; Woods,
147, O. S. C., and Bowers, 151, Ore
gon; Wingard, 152, Oregon, and
Miller, 151, O. S. C.; Palmrose, 102,
O. S. C., and Johns, 161, Oregon,
and the last bout was taken by
heavyweights, Huddleston, 175,
Oregon, and Kallander, 109, O. S. C.
Decisions were made at the match,
and the matmen and audience will
know the results, but in view of
the fact that the meet was an
amicable affair, the coaches from
the two institutions, Widmer anil
Newton, deemed it advisable to let
the decisions travel by way of gen
eral discussion, and stated their de
sire to not have them printed. How
ever, the match was well attended
and apparently well appreciated by
audience and' contestants.

]had said to the co-ed sport enthu
siasts that in 19£8 thore would bo
! such a program of sports as we now
have, they would not have been be
lieved. The progress is not 'yet
completed, for each year there is a
greater program and more enthu
siasm. Since four years ago several
new sports have been added to the
schedule and many more girls have
become interested in those sports
that have been played here before.
Among the more prominent sports
there is a large turn-out daily, with
no means of encouragement being
necessary to get attendance. Bas
ketball, field hockey, track and
field, and baseball, swimming, ten

supported by girl athletes.
Baseball Men Report
At University High
The spring weather has been an
inspiration to the University high
school baseball enthusiasts to such
an extent that they have started
daily practices with the anticipation
of making another good record for
themselves. Last year they won
all the games that they played in
this county. All the men from last
year’s team are back again and
there are several good men trying
out this year.

That practical joke
about looking upward
You can’t help yourself. If you see someone standing
still in the street, looking upward, you bend your neck
backward. You want to see too. You want to know
what’s going on.
That instinct is perhaps the main reason for news
papers. So you can know what’s going on. Going on
among your neighbors, among the people in the next
state, in other lands. You want to know the news.
And that’s what advertising is for, too. So you can
know what’s going on. So you can know the news about
styles in clothing, about theories in foods, about the latest
improvements in radio amplifiers or automobile engines
or face creams. News! You want to know the news.
The advertising in this newspaper is here to tell you
things. It is here to keep you in touch with the things that
are going on. Advertisements are interesting. They are
useful. They are news.
Don’t miss news
