Washington Splits Hoop Race Series Oregon’s Next Opponent Defeats Leaders at Seattle Keenan Leading Scorer of Webfoot Five When the Oregon basketball team meets the Washington State Cougars, at Pullman, Friday night, Washington State will have the upper hand in the predictions as they turned back the Washington Huskies last night 29 to 26. This win scored in the second game of a two-game series splits the games the Huskies having won the first tilt Monday evening 24 to 21. Standings Unchanged No position* were changed as far as conference standings are concerned, by the hostilities in Seattle, but the Purple and Gold team had its lead cut down a lit tle, although not enough to cause the Seattle team much concern. Oregon will leave Eugene tomor row afternoon and arrive in Pull man Friday for the two games, which will be held Friday and Sat urday nights. It is expected that Bill Reinhart will announce the roster of the team he will take with him, today.

Oregon has been an easy winner in swimming against the Orangemen for the past few years, but the Webfoots have only three lettermen back and the Staters are expected to present a strong team this year. The Beavers lost their only meet this year to the ;trong Multnomah Club team, 36 to 30, while the Oregon varsity won jver the freshman team in their only regular meet. Chuck Silverman, Len Thomson, and Anderson are the only lettermen on the team this year, but several newcomers have shown real abilities in practice, Silverman will again take care of the distance events, with Thomson competing in the dives. An derson will, of course, swim the sprints and he is planning to lower his own coast records this year. The Webfoots will meet the Beavers in water nolo after the meet, and some of the muoh talked-of athletic ({iiestions will probably be discussed under water. Among the most outstanding men out for the team are A1 Ed wards and Art Hansen, dashes; Charles Foster, and Palmer McKim, 220; Bill McNabb, backstroke; Paul Lafferty, breast-stroke, and Joe Brown and Bill Sievers, divers. Regardless of the standing of water polo as a major sport, a point still unsettled by the athletic com mittee, Oregon will have a strong team this year. The whole meet should be worth journeying to Corvallis to see. Heavers Take Slam at Oregon Baseball Club With all this newspaper talk about the possible severing of ath letic relations between Oregon and Oregon State making the rounds, Oregon students and townspeople have been trying to figure out just what all the squawking is about. There seems to be no definite official source of information, and Virgil D. Earl, Oregon athletic director, declares that absolutely nothing has yet been done officially. It is inter esting to note the three supposed planks in the Oregon State plat form. * * * The first cry on the list is that Oregon students are said to have put on milking caps at a baseball game lust spring and paraded in front of the Oregon State bench. That one almost makes us laugh—true it is that a certain group of Oregon root ers wear white caps to baseball games—blit these students be long to the well known unof ficial Oregon baseball club and wear said caps to ail baseball games here. If the Beaver sup porters had scrutinized these i caps a little closer they would have noted that they hore flour and paint advertisements—not milk. * * * The difference in visiting teams ' and coaches can be easily under ! stood when we remember back to j the visit of Buck Bailey and his | Washington .State baseball team | here last spring. Oregon students ! of the club attended the first ; game in their usual headwear and | it didn't seem to bother the Cou ! gars or their coach. Lo and be hold at the second game the jol ly, wisecracking Mr. Bailey was seated on the Washington State bench with one of the flour caps cocked to one side of his head. Ev erybody. Bailey included, had a lot of fun at that game. That’3 real spirit. Library Secretary III Since Saturday Gladys Yoder, secretary to M. H. Douglass, librarian, has been ill since last Saturday and unable I to report for duty, according to ' Mr. Douglass. Fencers Prepare For Tournament This Week-end Faculty Members Assist In Development of Strong Squad For two days at least the glam or of medieval swords play will hold sway in a modern setting, when Coach Warren C. Powell's rapier artists engage in combat on Thursday and Friday of this week. Fans of this sport will then have the opportunity thrill to the flashing foils, cheer the lightning ripostes and lunges, and applaud the quick parries of fencers who have trained diligently in prepa ration for the minor sports carni val. Two members of the faculty, L K. Shumaker and Louis M. Meyers, have been aiding Coach Powell in his task of developing a strong squad, and are enthusiastic over the progress made by the team. Mr. Powell has greatly appreciat ed the help given by these exper ienced fencers, and feels quite con fident that the team will make a creditable showing. “Any experienced or inexper ienced fencer is urged to come out for practice,” said Mr. Powell. “I would like to see the merits of fencing recognized by more peo ple. Those who have never exper ienced the pleasure of twitching an opponent’s sword from his grasp or eluding a vicious attack is missing some real thrills. For those who have no desire to take part there is still an incentive to attend the tourney, because no sport emphasizes technique, fi nesse, and grace as fencing can.” Up to date, nine swordsmen have entered the lists, seven of these being in the experienced division. Coach Powell expects several more adept blade wielders to join their ranks by Thursday. The list is as follows: Lee Winetrout, Carl Knowles R. P. Waggoner, D. W. Killion, Edward Merges, George Wads worth, Kenneth Fike, James Whit man, and Roger DeLashmutt.

T h e afternoon passed, and that evening one of them suddenly remembered that all three had completely forgotten the engagement. In the argument which fol lowed, each man rose to his own defense, and ail three got to making unqualified state ments regarding their aquatic valor. One, George Bishop, mentioned that he would have been willing to take the plunge at 1 a. m. The other two, Fred Sears and Julian Randolph Smith, took him up immediately, agreeing to make it a party of three if he would undertake the stunt.

WE DON’T WANT TO BRAG, BUT THE SENIOR BALL IS THE, SOCIAL EVENT OF THE YEAR. ' Spears Pleased With Coach Job College Magazine Sport! Writer Lauds ‘Doc’ In a letter to Harry Van Dine, | sports editor of the Emerald and correspondent to College Humor, Les Gage, considered to be one of the leading sports authorities in ! the country and at present sports editor of the ‘‘College" magazine, ! adds his recommendation to the growing list in favor of Dr. Clar ence Wilce Spears, who will ar rive in Eugene February 22, to take over his duties as head foot ball coach here.

E. Milne, of the department of mathe matics and physical science, at a meeting of the Eugene Round Ta ble at the Osborn Hotel. "Peace Time Problems in Ord nance” was the title of Dr. Milne’s paper, which took up the consid eration of the reserve supply of guns and ammunition, and the storage of this material in time of peace. Dr. Milne explained the organ ization of the ordnance depart ment of the government, and the problems of industrial mobilization * in the time of war, who to secure factories for the manufacture of necessary articles of warfare, how to secure trained men for their manufacture, and how to keep on hand necessary designs, blueprints, and specifications for the manu facture of war materials.

Over-mildness, for example—or over richness—shows lack of “balance” just as plainly as harshness or bitterness. On this basis, test Chesterfield. Aroma, smoothness, satisfying good ness, flavor, mildness, all present—but none emphasized at the expense of others.
