Side J -*-'ines Washington State Here Friday Dolph Real Hoop Find. McEvyan Returns to Eugene . ■ By Harry Van Dine — COACH Bill Reinhart will have his varsity basketball team on edge for the opening of the con ference season this week-end. The strong Washington State Cougars will furnish the Webfoots with their first taste of conference competition this year on Friday and Saturday evenings. Reinhart has a young team, composed most ly of inexperienced players, which he has been nursing along to put in the best possible shape for the league games. He abandoned plans for a barnstorming trip into Cali fornia during the holiday season as he figured that intensive prac tice would do the men more good than taking several losses on the trip. His idea seems to have been borne out by the recent showing of the Webfoots. /OREGON turned in two good games against Gonzaga uni versity last week, winning one and losing the second. This showing is all the more impressive when the early season record of the Bulldogs is aired. Gonzaga has chalked up victories over both Ida ho and Washington State, both members of the Northwest con ference. The Spokane collegians have a rangy, fast breaking team and boast of an exceptional shot in Bertilla. The Webfoots swept the Bulldogs off their feet in the first game, with some classy floor work and shooting, and came out on the long end of a 34 to 2.r> score. Gonzaga came back in the final game and won, 29 to 27, but not until Oregon had made a great second half rally. The game brought out some real Oregon fight, when the Webfoots all but tie up the score after Lraiiing 14 to 9 at half time. * * * Y7JNGENT DOLP, a graduate of ’ last year's freshman hoop team, came to the front in great style against Gonzaga. Dolp showed promise of developing into a great star of the maple court and will be a hard man for any team to stop this season. He is a good shot and plays an excel lent game. He seems to have won a place as a regular on the varsity and fits in well in Reinhart’s style of play. Teamed with Dolp at forward is Winsor Calkins, mem ber of the super-varsity last year. This young man has improved greatly under the watchful eyes of the varsity mentor and has turned in several good games this year. He is fast, a good shot, and a good defensive player. Dolp and Calkins team well together, and with Roy Hughes, Bill Keenan, and Kermit Stevens as alternates, will ably take care of the forward berths. * # # 1 ANKY JEAN EBERHART is again holding forth at the pivot position in fine fashion. Eb erhart’s work under the basket is very valuable and ho can be de pended upon to get his share of the points. He is one of the three lettermen returning from last year, and his varsity experience has greatly improved tiis style of play. Clifl Horner, another let ter man. and Harold dinger, su per-varsity player last year, are holding down the guard berths on the first five. Horner is a very good defensive player, fast on the floor, and a fair shot, lie should steadily improve and would be a valuable man on any team. Ol inger is a comer, with plenty of shooting ability and a fair defen sive player. There is one man on the squad who will be hard to keep out of the regular lineup after lie gets in condition. He is none oth er than Merv Chastain, a two year letterman at guard, who lias en rolled in school again. His return will greatly strengthen the Web foot squad and he is counted upon as a mainstay of the team. VPTTH the return of Captain ” John J. McEwan front New York, the powers that be will probably go into a huddle to de termine some way to straighten out tlie football coaching situation. McEwan is still the official head coach of Oregon football as his contract does not expire until the end of tiie present year. His con tract calls for a salary of $8,500 for the year and until he is award ed the proper financial remunera tion he will remain head coach. The students of Oregon should be greatly indebted to McEwan for the work he has done to put Ore gon on the national sports map. with his very successful football teams. He is a real man. COLLEGES PLAY HUGE PART IN PROGRESS AGE ((.'ohUnited from Coyc Out) success in a world that hail speeded up. The stadiuiiiania did not grip the schools of the country to the exclusion of the academic and the educational side. And in tiie vanguard of those who made the Twenties a period of progress in all lines can be listed the University of Oregon .lust what did Oregon accom plish in the decade from 1920 to Harry Van Dine, Editor Joe Brown. Asst. Editor George Erickson, Phil Cogs well, Jack Burke, Beth Salway, Hal Waffle, Mack Hall, Ed Goodnough, Jim Yergen, Bill Bowerman, Spec Stevenson. --- i * - 1930? Here are a few items which will tell the advancement story of the decade: PHYSICAL PLANT a Expenditure of approximately * $1,763,517 of University and associated student funds for new buildings on the campus. These include Gerlinger hall, McArthur court, Journalism, Fine Arts me morial, Commerce, new dormitory, architecture, Condon hall, educa tion and music buildings. More than $200,000 worth of equipment was put in these structures. y Erection of nine new fraternity houses and 14 sororities on the campus, involving the ex penditure of $785,500, exclusive of land. Fraternities ranged from ,$21,000 to $40,000; sororities spent from $18,000 to $40,000 on their new houses. ACADEMIC PROGRESS *» Establishment of a lower divi sion in spring of 1928. Ex perimentation and broader ex ploration of different academic fields made possible. Selection of major postponed until junior year in all fields except in architecture, business administration, education, journalism, law, music, physical education or sociology. Poor show ings prevent the student from graduating into the upper division and continuing his college work. A Creation of honors work for *' outstanding s t u d e nts. Em phasis placed on individual re search and effort rather than on class attendance. " Personnel bureau organized to '* aid in guidance and carry on research into the problems of the student. f Establishment of a school of sociology, now the school of applied social science. n Raising of entrance require * ments, tending toward better equipped students entering the University. FINANCIAL PROGRESS O Besides the $1,763,517 spent on ** campus buildings and the $785,500 on new fraternities and sororities, the University’s income lias also risen. This item, how ever, has not kept pace with the enrollment. During the Twenties, the num ber of students at the University jumped from 1,785 in 1919-20 to more than 3,000 in 1929-30 an in crease of 60 per cent. In the same period of time the income of the University from mlllage tax and other sources raised less than 10 per cent, from $1,097,54!) in 1920 to $1,231,949 for .1929. JA Student business, handled by the graduate manager's office, soared from $43,000 to $185,000 in the past decade. Where in 1920 $5,000 was spent for a coaching staff, the A. S. U. O. will spend $13,000 in 1929-30. GENERAL PROGRESS III There are many items of * progress more difficult to set down in print. Effective work has been done along lines of mu sical activity of the University; V ii I I I Even j j i » m the good old vacation days can’t £ m be had again until Spring Vacation ■ m the good foods and creams can n * help take place of some of that a ^ vacation good time that has just ® | passed. ^ ■ H : special : ■ ■ SWeek Beginning i Jan. 12/1930 « BRICK m | Carmel Pecan * .

Oregon’s athletic teams have won many conference champion ship:. ... every sport football, bas ketball, baseball, tennis, swim ming, : id golf. *Oreg(.i's faculty has been in creasingly active in research and academic lines and members of the faculty presented papers at many large educational conferences all over the United States. In closing while the nation was busy popularizing the night clubs, worshipping beauty queens, staging million-dollar prize fights, reading sagas of crime and bootlegging, and inventing a new slang patois of the period, the colleges and universities of America, and among them the University of Oregon, have been matching them stride for stride with progress of a more constructive sort. What new things will be cre ated during the Thrilling Thirties can only be imagined. The year 1910 will see a campus scarcely similar to the present day one. Progress is rapid. So it's curtains for the Tottering Twenties, a re fined way of saying "Here’s your hat! What’s your hurry?” Governor Myers Y. Cooper, of Ohio, is the possessor of an auto graphed football, the gift of Wes ley Fesler, who made his 99-yard run with it against Northwestern.
