Oregon Swims To Win Over j Oregon State Wcbfoots Score 4-3 Over Beavers in Dual Meet Last Saturday Contest Finishes Season’s " Aquatic Activities The Webfoot swimming team scored a decisive 51 to 33 victory over Oregon State in a dual meet last Saturday at Corvallis and af ter tying the score in a -thrilling water polo game, edged out the Beavers in an overtime period by a 4 to 3 count. The meet which was the last one of the season for Oregon, more than evened the account with the Orangemen for in the first meet between the two schools the score was a tie. The O. S. C. rooks barely nosed out the Oregon frosh in a preliminary contest, 34 to 32. Anderson Outstanding Johnny Anderson, Oregon cap tain, and Fred W^dley, O. S. C. star, were outstanding. Ander son equalled the northwest record in the 40-yard dash making the time of 24.2. He also won the 300-yard dash. Wadley swam a fine 440-yard race and then by a great spurt beat Art Hansen of Oregon in the 220. Oregon lost the opening relay race, but start ed piling up points in the next event, the 100 yard breast stroke, in which Steve Fletcher and Paul Lafferty took first and second. Bill McNabb was in fine form and took the 100-yard back stroke for the Webfoots. Art Hansen ac counted for three second places among the free style races. Needham Wins 220 Herb Eisenschmidt, rook, and Bob Needham, frosh, staged a bat tle for personal glory in the year ling meet. Eisenschmidt won the 50 and 100-yard dashes, but Need ham came back in a gritty fight in the 220 and took first. The frosh took four out of seven first places. Harrison Spain captured the 100-yard backstroke, Maurice Pease got the verdict in the dives, and James Travis took the 100 yard breast stroke. The rooks trimmed the frosh 0-2 in water polo. The return meet Oregon was to have with Multnomah club next Saturday has been canceled be cause Jack Cody, MultnoTnah's swimming director is taking some of his stars to a California meet.

To make the very poor schedule much worse, Jack Cody, Multnomah Club swim ming coach, announced after the meet that team would be unable to meet Oregon in the meet scheduled for the campus next Saturday. Seems as though Cody’s team will be split up .t that time as a couple of his divers are expected to compete in the South. Therefore Ore gon’s swimming season is officially closed nd where are we? The season's record shows two wins, one over Multnomah and one over Oregon State, and a technical loss to Oregon State. Quite different from last year’s record. Johnny Anderson ended his collegiate career In as much of a blaze or glory as the schedule permitted. He won both of his dash event* against the Orangemen, showing he is still the best speed Hwlinmer in the Northwest. Chuck Silverman, who also was swimming his last race, didn’t fare so well and placed second in the 440. Chuck still holds the Northwest record In that event, blit he has been slowed up this year with a shoulder injury. At any rate It sure seemed good to take Oregon State to the cleaners, 52 to 84, and erase that so-called technical win they held over the Webfoots. Probably the most interesting feature of the meet was the per formance of Steve Fletcher, sophomore, who won his third varsity letter in as many sports Saturday night. Steve was always figured to be a strong swimmer and he easily won the breast stroke after only being out for the team for a few days. Fletcher started his winning of letters on the football squad last fall, and was -rewarded with a varsity sweater for his services as a reserve end. When the Webfoot grid team returned from their long jaunt t« Florida, Fletcher turned out for Coach Bill Reinhart’s varsity basketball team and won a letter as a reserve center. Three-letter men are a rarity in this day of specialized athletics. Examinations Slow u/t Athletic Activity Winter term examinations are! expected to put a temporary! crimp in the athletic activities on ! the campus and there will be an j off season until the spring term wpens. Coach Doc Spears will j give his football men a well earned [ rest and Coach Bill Hayward will do likewise with the track aspir ants. Little baseball practice will j be attempted until the examina- j lions are over. Athletics will give I way for academic work. * * * This past winter term has j provided Its athletic thrills for ; Oregon students. Probably the j most important happening was , the securing of Spears as foot . ball coach and his subsequent I arrival on the campus. He has certainly whipped the Oregon football team into shape. Bill Ueinhart’s showing with his group of inexperienced basket ball players was another sur prise. Figured to land near the bottom, the Webfoots stayed in the running for the conference title until the last series against Washington. * * ‘ * The athletic situation for the spring term seems to be in pretty much of a muddle of course, Hayward will be on deck to han dle his track team and he sure knows how it is done. The var sity and freshman baseball coach ing staffs present the real prob lem. There is every indication that Reinhart and Prink Callison will continue to work with the football team and that Oregon will hire new coaches for the ball teams. Rill Baker has been men tioned for the freshman coaching berth but the varsity job is still up in the air. the brand of characters present ed.

Sam Barry, the Trojan coach, won his second coast title when in the third game of the series his men started strong arid main tained their lead throughout the game. The winners 'led at half time, 21 to 12. Second Title for V. S. C. This series was the second the two teams have engaged in, in the conference finals in recent years, Coach Hec Edmunson hav ing tangled with the Southern team last year at Seattle. The Trojana had an easier time in their section of the race, being assured of thg southern title with three game^remaining on their schedule. 'Jme Huskies, on the other haftd, had to maintain a good record until their last game, to represent the northern section. Northern Hopes Strong Northern hopes for a confer ence title were stronger this year than for many seasons past, as the California members of the race boasted rather mediocre teams and the Huskies looked to be good enough to take the measure of tile best in the South. However, the winners outdid themselves and bested • the Seattle team in two out of three games. The scores of the first two tilts were: U. S. C. 4G, Washington 31, and Wash ington 37, U. S. C. 31. When in the second game the Purple and Gold team scored a win, it was hoped that they had had a case of stage fright in the first encounter and would breeze through last night's game to take the title. U. S. C., however, proved to be the stronger in all three games. . 1 HOLDS HOOVER FAILURE AS LEADER OF PARTY (Continued from Page One) left by Calvin Coolidge. “At 1 least," he said, “Hoover sees prob lems and tries to solve them which is more than one can say for Cool idge, because he did not see these problems, and, not seeing, could not solve them. The farm relief, the tariff, and the disarmament conference now going on in Lon don have all been waiting around , for a long time, during most of i the last administration.” According to Schumacher, Hoo ver has been just a bit embarrass ed during the last year, but shows promise of being as good a leader j as most presidents.
