BETTING ODDS IGNORE
STRENGTH OF LINES
The betting odds are giving the
Beavers 12 points over Oregon in
today's game. These odds are
based on two things. One, that
Kitzmiller won’t be able to play
or, if he should get in, will be ex
tremely handicapped — which is
true; the second, that Oregon
State will be able to overwhelm
the Webfoots with their passing
attack. The betting odds appar
ently ignore the comparative
strength of the two lines, where
in most football games the course
of the struggle is determined.
SCHISSLER'S SLOGAN
“OUTFIGHT OREGON”
Coach Schissler has adopted a
slogan for his team, “Outfight
Oregon.” Will his line be able to
outfight Oregon's and hence out
play it? We doubt it. Oregon’s
forward wall has been rated as
one of the most powerful, if not
the strongest, on the coast. Every
man on it has been starring all
season. Two of its members, Aus
tin Colbert, guard, and George
Christensen, tackle, who both
made all-coast last year, are as
great as any linemen Oregon has
ever had.
They and one other lineman,
Jerry Lillie, guard, will be playing
their last game against the Staters
today. They have never played on
a team that the Orangemen have
been able to defeat. Being rated
as the underdog will only make
them fight harder this time—if
the pep and spirit shown during
the week in practice means any
thing. We feel convinced that the
Webfoot line will dominate and be
the determining factor of the
game.
HILL WILL BE FEATURE
OF CJKOSS-COUNTKY RUN
The last two years or maybe
further back, we don’t remember,
Oregon has both won and lost the
cross-country run with the "Beav
ers which finishes in the football
stadium just before the game
starts. This parody of winning
and losing at the same time came
about this way. Ralph Hill, Ore
gon’s track captain and national
collegiate record holder of the
mile, has come in far ahead of the
rest of the 19 or 20 runners, but
the Webfoot team has lost on
points.
The method of determining
which team wins is figured from
the comparative places in which
the men finish. First counts the
most, of course, and so on down
the line. This year, Coach Hay
ward’s distance men are better
than usual, counting the team as
a whole, and stand a good chance
of taking the team victory. Ralph
Hill, unless he breaks a leg or
something, should win easily.
SPEARS’ BACKFIELD
IS A SPEEDY ONE
Doc Spears’ backfield combina
tion that is slated to start the
game today has speed. Sam Ro
tenberg is a flash at right half
and Choppy Parke at the half
berth is equally fast. Big Ed Moel
ler as fullback is fast and espe
cially strong on defensive, while
Jack Erdley, quarter, was a
speedy end last year. These men
will be adapted to chasing down
Beaver passes and may be com
pleting some of their own.
Hundreds of Students
Flock to Junior Jinx
Celebrating the Oregon Frosh
win over the O. S. C. Rooks and
getting their rally spirit high for
the varsity tussle at Corvallis,
hundreds of students made merry
at the first annual Junior Jinx at
McArthur court last night. The
dance, originated by the class of
1932 as a new campus tradition,
was handled by Jack Edlefsen,
chairman.

The intramural basketball race
coasts into its final week of play
Monday with the winners of two
leagues practically settled and the
others still very much in doubt.
League II has been narrowed down
to the Theta Chi and S. A. M.
quintets, who will play Wednesday
afternoon. The Bachelordon-Sig
Ep clash Tuesday should settle the
issue in League IV, while Beta and
Fiji will go to the mat Wednesday
for the honor of representing
League V in the play-off.
A. B. C.’s and S. A. E.’s Lead
A. B. C. and S. A. E. from
Leagues I and VI, respectively,
are certain finalists while League
III may offer the closest battle
of all. Omega hall is leading with
three victories and no losses, but
their playing has been so ragged
of late that the onrushing Phi
Delts have been installed as favor
ites in the Wednesday game. If
Sigma Nu handles Phi Delt on
Monday, the only satisfaction the
latter can obtain is to wreck
Omega’s hopes.
S. A. E. rates a very good
chance of copping the champion
ship while Alpha Beta Chi's
chances look slimmer due to faulty
shooting. Bale, Robertson, and
Roberts have done some very ac
curate shooting for S. A. E. and
Boyle and Walgren have turned
in outstanding defensive games.
Speed has been the keynote of the
A. B. C. drive and David, Yerko
vitch, Moore, Olds, and Quinn are
five of the fastest players in the
tourney.
Aces Raise Hopes of Few
Sig Ep’s crew of huskies and
their great scoring ace, Brewer,
should take Bachelordon into camp
Tuesday, but Paxton and Addison
may reverse the dope. The Sieg
mund boys and Bob Near make
Beta a strong favorite over Fiji,
although the latter has two able
scoring threats in Watts and Mc
Donald.
One of the three best teams in
the tourney will be eliminated
when the fighting Astorians play
ing for Theta Chi tangle with Max
Rubenstein and the rest of the S.
A. M. outfit. Each squad has a
basket-converting wizard—Bram
hall for Theta Chi and Rubenstein
of S. A. M. The fishermen have
a better offense with Bramhall,
Jeffers, Makinen, and Hellberg all
able shots, but their defense is not
so impregnable as the bulwark
presented by Director and Donin.

Heads of Athletics
Have New Offices
Department Now Located
In McArthur Court
“With the offices here in Mc
Arthur court, the athletic depart
ment is much better organized
than it was in the old days when
it was a hit or miss proposition,”
states Tom Stoddard, assistant
graduate manager.
This observation was made about
the new offices that have been
built this year for the athletic de
partment. They are built on a
long corridor with a central office
at the head where a secretary
takes the incoming calls.
Those having offices there are:
Doc Spears, football coach; Virgil
D. Earl, director of athletics; Billy
Reinhart, varsity baseball and
basketball coach; Prink Callison,
freshman grid mentor; and Tom
Stoddard, assistant graduate man
ager.
Mr. Stoddard’s position as assist
ant graduate manager is also an
innovation of the department.
Inter-Fraternity League
For Bowling Is Started
An inter-fraternity bowling
league, with an attractive cup as
a trophy, will start Thursday on
the Eugene Recreation alleys. Ac
cording to Manager Blaney, prizes
for individual as well as team
scores will be given.
The tourney will be run on a
handicap basis, giving each team
an equal chance. All matches will
be held at 4 o’clock every Thurs
day. Several houses have already
signified their intention of enter
ing. Any fraternity member inter
ested is requested to call the local
alleys and secure details.
Matches with the bowling team
from Oregon State are probable
if enough interest is shown.
Loud Speaker Is Subject
Of Next Physics Seminar
Charles A. Goodwin, graduate
student in physics, will speak be
fore the physics seminar Wednes
i day, November 19, on the efficien
cy of the loud speaker. Dr. W. P.
Boynton, head of the physics de
partment, believes he is an author
ity on radio and sound.
At the seminar last Wednesday
Jack Ahearn, graduate student in
physics, spoke on long distance
telephone cables.. He referred to
the satisfying distance of broad
casting and suggested as a pro
gram the system of transatlantic
telephone cables. At present, he
said, cables have more reliable ser
vice for long distance telephones
than the present system.

Crumbaker, Joyce
To Make Research
Regulation of Utilities To
Be Studied
"Oregon is different, very dif
ferent in the way in which it ap
proaches the matter of regulation
of public utilities,” declared Calvin
Crumbaker, of the economics de
partment yesterday.
Just how Oregon is different
from other states in her attitude
Professor Crumbaker is not ready
to say until after an exhaustive
research covering the whole state
has been made, in which various
members of the economics depart
ment of the University will un
doubtedly participate. He did, how
ever, give the impression that this
research will be unusually inter
esting because of the unique way
in which Oregon provides for reg
ulation of her public utilities.
John W. Joyce, graduate student
of economics, is beginning a gen
eral survey of this field with spe
cial reference to the People’s Pow
er bill adopted by the people of
Oregon in the last election. This
survey is preliminary to the more
exhaustive one in which Professor
Crumbaker is interested. It will
reveal to the public the secret
wherein Oregon's difference lies.
Sport Interest of Faculty
Surveyed By Edgar DeCou
Professor Edgar DeCou, chair
man of the intramural sports com
mittee, reports that 130 people
have replied to his questionnaire
concerning intramural sports in
the survey to determine the per
centage of athletic interest among
the faculty and administration.
More are expected to hand their
ballots in within the next few days.
Dean John F. Bovard, of the
school of physical education, was
the first to send in his ballot. He
marked volleyball as his favorite
game, with hiking and golf fol
lowing.
Professor DeCou will count the
ballots next week when a full re
port will be given.

McAlister Doubts Science
Will Forecast Tornadoes
Will scientists within a decade
be able to predict serious weather
distuibances, such as tornadoes
and hurricanes and their resulting
floods and destruction, by means
of a study of the spots on the
sun ?
Prof. E. H. McAlister, of the
department of mechanics and
astronomy, thinks that Captain T.
J. See, United States navy mathe
matics professor who believes
scientists will be able to do this,
is overoptimistic.
“We hope to be able to predict
weather in this manner in t.he
course of time,” Professor McAlis
ter said when asked about Captain
See’s statement, “but it is doubt
ful that we can within ten years.
I think he is overoptimistic.
“Scientists have been working
on this problem for over a cen
tury, but so far they have only
made moderate progress.”
Captain See is now attempting
to work out a proper ratio of sun
spots to weather conditions in or
der that he may be able to predict
accurately the weather by the sun.
Although Professor McAlister be
lieves he will be successful, he
thinks it will take a long time.
Captain See's belief is that there
is a definite connection between
the sun spots and the Mississippi
floods of 1927, and with the drouth
that burned up the Mid-west last
summer.
Rapid increase in sun spots, he
says, causes a sudden chilling of
the earth’s atmosphere, and rains
and flood result. On the other
hand, a decrease causes an excess
of heat, and drought is the result.
Athlete’s Marks
Are Not Padded,
Says Virgil Earl
Only One-Third Hold Jobs;
Tutors Are Not Used
“Contrary to the belief of the
average student and the public,
athletes do not have their grades
“padded,” said Virgil Earl, direc
tor of athletics of the University.
"Neither is it true that all of the
men who make the varsity teams
are given jobs.”
The old theory that the athlete
is way below tire average student,
scholastically, has no backing in
reality. In fact, his grades are
kept as high as those of most of
the students who do not partici
pate in activities of any kind. It
is not uncommon for varsity men
to be passing in 17 or more hours.
At the same time, it is true that
some athletes are helped so that
they are able to keep their grades
within the eligibility limit, but this
is done only to a certain extent.
If the mid-term report that is
turned in to Mr. Earl’s office
shows that a man is low or flunk
ing in a subject, a query is sent
to the professor under whom the
subject is taught. If he thinks
that the man is capable of passing
with the aid of a tutor, one is sup
plied. If there is no chance for
the student to get by with the
added help, he is dropped from
the team.
