WHERE ARE
WE ANYWAY—
Here we are again at the close
or close to it of the fall semester
which by the way always produces
the biggest upsets, the most work
and by far the greatest amount of
grief.
Retrospectively speaking, we
aren't a lot better off now than
we were this time last year. The
Webfoot football team was on its
way home from losing to Florida
2Gfco 6 and we weren’t a bit sure
who was going to coach the 1930
football team.
This year we didn’t play Florida
but otherwise football may be con
sidered in much the same light.
We hope Spears is playing fair
with the Associated Students and
as far as that goes we see no rea
son why we should believe all that
has been said about him lately. We
feel that if he does return to coach
the 1931 Lemon and Green team
we will achieve the greatest rec
ognition that has been accorded
this institution since the days of
Hugo Bezdek, et al.

Webfoot hoopsters should open
their conference series in better
shape than they were last year.
As is customary the basketball
team will occupy its time this
Christmas by practice and when
they grow weary of this form of
amusement they will practice some
more and when they have finished
practicing they will go out and
play a few games.
It’s a hard life this being a bas
ketball player but we hope that it
will produce a lot of victories. Ore
gon has perhaps more veterans re
turning this year than any other
member of the northern section of
the conference and it would look
well if they could deliver the goods
this year.

HOW DO THEY
GET THIS WAY—
We have been reading a low col
umn called Dredging for Sport
Dirt which appears regularly in the
Oregon State Barometer and find
among some fairly offensive ma
terial one bit in particular which
strikes us as being poor.
-The item referred to is a slam at
Doc Spears for choosing Harry
Ebding of St. Mary’s on an all
coast team in preference to Bill
McKalip of the Beavers.
Anyone who has seen both these
ends play and judging from his bit
we feel certain that Bill Dderdge
hasn’t will not hesitate an instant
to name Harry Ebding not as an
all-coast end but as one of the best
ends that has ever graced this sec
tion of the country, meaning the
Facific coast. If Dodge could have
seen Ebding reach high in the air
with one hand to catch one of
Mack Stennet’s bullet passes while
using the other arm to ward off a
tackier he would have understood
Doc’s choice. Ebding is everything
that McKalip is and then some
more and this is more to the credit
of the Gael for McKalip is one
sweet end.

Coach’s Recommendations
Based on Ability and
Actual Service
Participation in Important
Game Is Requirement
For Awards
Twenty-five members of the
1930 Webfoot freshman football
sriuad were recommended by Coach
Frink Callison as worthy of re
ceiving their numerals, according
to the list issued yesterday from
the graduate manager's office.
The recommendations were
based on playing ability and meri
torious service throughout the sea
son. In order to be eligible to get
the coveted numerals it was nec
essary for a player to participate
in either of the Oregon State Rook
games or in the Washington Babe
contest.
The list of freshmen includes:
Harold Anderson, William Bentson,
Howard Bobbitt, Evan Campbell,
Robert Fury, Ray Kelly, Fred Ken
nedy, Archie Kranenburg, Joe Lil
lard, Lyle McCallum, Alvin Mc
Kelligon, Edgar McLellan, Trent
Meredith, Mike Mikulak, Walter
Morast, Roy Morgan, James Mun
holland, Erwin Nilsson, Romey de
Pittard, Oral Shepardson, Henry
Simons, Mark Temple, Charles
Thomas, Norman Thompson, and
Charles Wishard.
The frosh had a very successful
season this year, winning three of
their four games. The only game
dropped was to the Oregon State
Rooks by one slim point. In the
second meeting between the two
teams the yearlings had no trou
ble in taking them 13 to 0. The
ether two wins were over Albany
ollege and the University of Wash
ington Babes.
Joe Lillard was the leading scor
er for Callison’s outfit with 25
points scored in three games, not
counting the Albany contest wh4ch
was merely a practice game. Rom
ey de Pittard scored once and add
| ed the extra point for a total of
| seven markers to his credit. Henry
j Simons and Mark Temple both
! scored in the Babe game to get in
| the scoring column.

Webfoot Cagers
To Journey North
During Holidays
Iloopsters Schedule Games
With Multnomah Club,
Vancouver Squads
The addition of three new men
to the Oregon basketball squad
last night gave high indications
of the interest Reinhart's cagers
are showing in preparation for the
vacation road-trip and the regular
conference season slated to start
January 9.
Cliff Potter, Ray Bell and Art
Holman, the latter a transfer from
California and a star 440-yard run
ner in track, have all donned the
Webfoot colors and look as though
they will give some of the boys
a run for their jobs.
Reinhart put his regulars through
a stiff workout and will continue
rigorous practice sessions twice a
day during the holidays. The en
tire squad will remain on the
campus during the two-week vaca
tion period, that is, when they are
not on the Northern tour to Van
couver and Portland, December 26
and 27.
Multnomah’s Winged “M” quint
and the famed Vancouver Ram
blers will face the Webfoots on
their vacation jaunt, and a tenta
tive game with Linfield is being
negotiated, according to word
from the graduate manager’s of
fice.
The chief worry of the hoopsters
seems to be toward the first con
ference game of the season three
days after the winter term starts,
when Oregon’s five tangles with
“Hec” Edmundson's Washington
Huskies at Seattle in a two-game
series.
Immediately after the Husky
tilts, Reinhart’s men meet the
cageing Cougars of Washington
State in the first home game.
What Washington and Washing
ton State will offer in the way of
competition is, of course, not defi
nitely known at this stage of the
season, but the fact remains that
both teams have always made
things miserable for the rest of
the Northwest teams, Washington
winning the Northwest title last
season. Because both schools
have always stressed basketball to
the utmost, there is little doubt
but that they will give just as
much, if not more, competition
than before.
Among the following a reserve
squad will be chosen for ready ac
tion: James, Stahl, Boyle, Ruben
stein, Walgren, Roberts, Rogers,
Bramhall, and a few others.

Former University Student
Witnesses Volcano in Action
The eruption of the volcano,
Kilan^a, which has the largest cra
ter of any in the world, and a trop
ical storm were two of the high
lights experienced by Ruth Ray,
Oregon graduate of '29, who is
teaching English in a Hilo high
school located about 30 miles from
the active Hawaiian volcano.
The cloudburst which was the
tail end of the storm from Honolu
lu was the first one there in 17
years. The torrents of rain fell so
fast that in 5 1-2 hours it meas
ured 7.58 inches. Miss Ray in a
letter to her sister, Helen Ray, a
freshman at the University, went
on to tell of the storm:
“The sky and the whole night
were bright with lightning and
rang with bursts of thunder. Light
ning is all sheet lightning—just a
huge flare that covers the whole
sky—no streaks at all. Cane fields
were washed away along with all
the soil leaving just bare red rock
where once there was full grown
cane ready to be cut. Mud was

quintet will work out every day
except Christmas, when thej will
be allowed a day off. .
Callison is fast rounding his
squad into shape in anticipation
of the 1931 season which starts
early next term. No scrimmage
has been held as yet, all of the
time being devoted to drill on
fundamentals.
Due to the large number of can
didates who turned out, Callison
found it necessary to divide the
squad into two sections, one com
posed of more experienced and
seasoned players, the other of
those who have had little or no
experience.
A unique division of the more
experienced players was made by
Callison the first of the week, a
group composed of those who had
been members of his football
eleven,
piled as deep as three and four
[eet in places on the highway. One
toad was completely melted away.
"The very next day after the
storm we received word that Kil
inea, the largest active volcano in
the world, was active for the first
time in several years. The whole
volcano is called Kilanea, while
the pit itself is called Haleman
nian. This pit is about a half-mile
In diameter and 2000 feet deep, so
that there are about 50 acres in
the floor or bed of the pit.
“The eruption is most beautiful
at night; you stand on the edge
af the crater and there way down
below you is all of this 50 acres
af red-hot lava. At one place there
Is a fountain of red hot lava shoot

It is only when you look through
field glasses that you realize the
enormity of this fountain. The
whole sky is lit with the brilliant
orange glow from it.
Planes make continual trips from
Honolulu bringing people to see the
marvelous sight.”
Lone Slicker Left
By Aimless Stude
jyjANY students apparently do
not know how to take care
of their clothes. At least, that
is the opinion of Dr. A. E. Cas
well, professor of physics, who
says that a yellow slicker has
been hanging up in the main hall
of Deady for weeks and yet has
not been claimed. Dr. Caswell
has reason to believe that the
owner of said garment attends
regular classes In Deady hall.
The article as described by
Dr. Caswell is of the heavy, yel
low type. On the back Is “Bob”
In green letters, and underneath
are an Oregon seal and the word
“Hello.” If the owner desires to
regain his slicker, he may re
trieve it by calling at 106 Deady.

Kopy Krawl Grille *
Dance Scheduled
For Osburn Hotel
Annual Alpha Delta Sigma
Event Will Be Held
January 17
With the selection of the ball
room of the Osburn hotel as the
location for the annual Krazy Kopy
Krawl, sponsored by Alpha Delta
Sigma, national advertising honor
ary, plans are under way to make
the evening of January 17 one of
the largest of the school year. The
affair will again take the form of
a grille dance and various adver
tising signs will provide the motif
for decorations.
In past years when the dance
was held on the campus it was im
possible to accommodate all who
desired to attend but with the se
curing of the Osburn floor it is
expected that a large crowd can
be taken care of.
"We feel that we have been very
fortunate in securing the Osburn
for our dance,” George Weber, gen
eral chairman of the affair stated
last night. "It is well suited to our
needs and we hope to have the best
of the many successful Krawls.”
As in the past many useful sam
ples will be distributed at the
Krawl and members of the com
mittee are hard at work on several
new features to be used this year.
