By Phil Cogswell
you Have To
Look Up at ’Em
A six-footer may rank fairly
high as a man, but he’s shor*- as
a basketball player. The teams in
the northern hoop league, which
have centers around 6 feet 6,
namely the two Washington teams
and Oregon State, are in the se
lect class, while Oregon and Idaho,
without such tall pivot men have
n't been able to win a game yet.
Getting the tip off nine times
out of every ten, as Gordon, of the
Cougars, did here, gives a team a
tremendous advantage and has a
disheartening effect on the play
ers of the other squad. They never
get their hands on the ball until
their opponents have taken a shot
at the basket and generally not
then for that giant of a center is
right in front of the hoop ready
to take the ball off the backboard
if the shot is missed. During the
second Webfoot-Cougar game, the
Staters at one time scored 11
points in succession. While they
were doing it, Oregon only had the '
ball in its possession once!

,\o Favorite
Race Yet
The Huskies have not lost a ;
game yet, and hence have already j
been conceded the best chance to ;
win the pennant. Washington has !
a good team, but it hasn’t played
either Washington State or Ore
gon State yet, so there are no
grounds for the Huskies to be so
highly rated. The two state col
lege teams certainly can’t be much,
if any, inferior to them.
Some rather bad news was giv
en out by Friel, the Cougar coach
He said that the Beavers had a
wonderful quintet, and he was
afraid they would beat his team
over at Corvallis. He was right,
the Orangemen won Monday night
making it two Cougar scalps. The
worst they could do last night was
make it even for the season.
Cougar Cubs
Are Still Young
If an earthquake doesn't shake
a building down on some of those
^W. S. C. players before next year,
or something else stop them, what
a team they should be! This is the
way Friel thinks they will lineup.
Holsten and Cross, forwards, Gor
don, center, and McClarney and
Wills, guards.

CORVALLIS, Jan. 20.— (Spe
cial)—Washington State college's
basketball team, showing a sud
den reversal of form, swamped the
Beaver quintet of Oregon State,
44-30, here tonight, after the score
had been tied at 18-18 at the half.
Huntley Gordon, towering soph
omore center, went wild in the
second half and rung up basket
after basket, to take high honors
with 16 points. His teammate,
Claude Holsten, followed close be
hind with 13.
Beavers Take Lead
Oregon State took a lead early
in the game with Ed Lewis and
Ken Fagans piling up a score of
11-1 in the first few minutes.
Lewis had three fouls called on
him, so “Slats” Gill, Orange men
tor, took him out and substituted
Bob Drager. Drager could not
get the tip-off over Gordon, as
Lev/is was partially able to do, and
the Cougars started sinking their
shots. Wills made two in short
order and McLarney and Holsten
also contributed before Oregon
State recovered from their lapse.
The score varied at 15-7, 15-9,
15-11, 15-13, 15-15, and then the
Orange came through to take a
lead again. W. S. C. countered
almost immediately and the score
stood 18-18 at half time.
O. S. C. Defense Fails
Oregon State’s zone defense had
crumbled before the cautious sure
fire shooting and dribbling of the
Cougars, and the Orange resumed
their man-to-man defense in the
second half with Ed Lewis in the
lineup. The second half was all
the Cougars’ with Gordon stand
ing under the basket to tip in

Jim Travis Wins
Race in Portland;
Clubbers Coming
Multnomah Meet May Be
Tough; Ex-Webfoots
Are on Team
Jim Travis, varsity swimmer,
won the 100-yard breast stroke
over a fast field last Saturday
night at the Multnomah club of
Portland in the city swimming
meet. His time was 1:18 4-5.
Oregon will meet the Multno
mah $lub here for their first
scheduled meet on January 31.
The club has a very formidable;
team this season and numbers i
among its members many ex-stars
of Oregon.
Johnny Anderson, tow-headed
flash for Oregon last year, is now
swimming for the club, as is Sil
verman, another ex-Oregon man.
“The Multnomah meet is not so
terribly important although it will
probably mean a bitterly fought
contest,” stated Jack Hewitt, var
sity swimming coach. “Our aim
is to point for the California
teams. We hope to give them
good battles.”
Hewitt is going to take ten men
with him to California. These men
will be chosen for their versatility
as they will also be used for water
polo. Water polo practices will be
held on Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays at 5 o’clock.
Interest has been aroused among
different schools in favor of a
freshman swimming conference.
Plans would include the Oregon
State Rooks, Eugene high school,
University high school, Salem high
school, the Eugene Y. M. C. A.,
and the Oregon frosh.
Such a conference, it is expect
ed, would stimulate interest in de
velopment for collegiate competi
tion. In previous years there has
been little competition and little
interest, which made training dif
ficult. Northern schools suffer
from lack of material and lack of
places to draw from. In the South
this condition is not found.
Oregon To Study
Rates With O.S. C
Colleges Will Investigate
Power Rates
The University of Oregon
through its economics department
has been asked to combine with
representatives of Oregon State
college in a study of rates charged
for power and electricity in Pacif
ic coast cities. The aim is to com
pare the level of rates in Portland
with other Pacific coast cities.
The University of Oregon has of
fered the services of Dr. Galvin
Crumbaker of the economics de
partment who will join the investi
gation with a single representative
from Oregon State college faculty.
Work will be done under the direc
tion of the industries committee
and the Portland Chamber of Com
merce.

Tennis Squad
Has Hopes of
Good Season
Stanley Almquist To Come
For Net Competition
In Spring
Yearling Prospects Good;
Portland Players Are
On Hand
"The tennis prospects this sea
son, especially the frosh, look
bright,” stated Don Guild, senior
tennis manager, yesterday after
noon at McArthur court during
the first turnout.
The frosh squad will be unusu
ally strong this year. There, is a
large turnout of good material.
Among those who will try for a
berth on the first-year squad is
Don Lewis of Portland. Lewis
went to Canada last summer and
while there worr the Western Ca
nadian' junior singles champion
ship. He also won the Washing
ton state junior championship and
was runner-up for the Northwest
junior title.
Johnson Junior Chump
Another man who is expected
to bolster up the frosh squad is
Bob Johnson. Johnson was Port
land city singles champion three
years ago and won the British
Columbia junior singles title last
summer.
Johnson and Lewis should make
a very strong doubles combination
as they paired together last sum
mer in the Northwest successfully.
Other frosh who are turning out
are Richard Goldthwaite, Portland
city singles champion; James Ed
miston, No. 1 man at the Medford
Tennis club; Tom Tongue, Bob De
Graff, Bob Hauge, Malcolm Krier,
and Alan Carley.
Almquist Expected Back
The varsity squad will be built
around Stanley Almquist, letter
man and nationally known player.
Almquist is not in school at pres
ent but will be enrolled next term.
He has held many important titles
in the last three years. Last sea
son he was runner-up for the Pa
cific Coast Intercollegiate title.
Last summer he made a very im
pressive showing in the East.
Others out for the varsity are
Jack Rhine, numeral man; Jim
Babson, who made the frosh squad
last year, and Joe Kalisky, letter
man.
“Practices, for some time at
least, will consist of the funda
mentals, such as strokes, form,
and footwork,” said S. Stephenson
Smith, varsity tennis coach.
A.S.U.O. Members
Will Be Seleeted
Student Representatives To
Be Chosen
Names of students to represent
the associated students on the stu
dent advisory committee will be
submitted tc the executive council
for approval and selection at tht»
executive council meeting this aft
ernoon, according to an announce
ment from George Cherry, presi
dent of the A. S. U. O., last night.
The three students selected for
this important post on the advis
ory committee must have an acute.,
understanding of student prob
lems, Cherry said, and show a
willingness and an ability to de
cide the best course of action for
all concerned in the many cases of
students up before that commit
tee. They must show intelligence
and must have demonstrated their
capability of judging a case fairly
and justly on the evidence submit
ted.
It is possible that the three rep
resentatives will be selected from
among the names submitted this
afternoon. Cherry said, and can be
announced tomorrow. However,
he stipulated, it is more likely that
no selection will be made until
! later.
International Relations
Club To Hold First Meet
The International Relations club
will hold its first meeting of the
term Thursday evening at 8 o’clock
at the International club, Cal Bry
an, president, announced yester
j day. Dr. Warren D. Smith of the
geology department, will lead a
i forum discussion on South Arner
j ica.
A new secretary will be elected
1 at the meeting, Bryan said, as Tim
Booth resigned his position on

President Jacobs, of Oglethorpe
university, says; “Football is the

Knute Rockne says Notre Dame
i is going to lose at least three foot
ball games next year. He thinks
too much success is sad, for “if
you keep on winning all the time
the alumni will not have anything

As the umpire stooped to dust
off the home plate preparatory to
starting a baseball game in Los
Angeles, the first batter walked
out and played leap frog over his
back. The player was Hap Hogan,
a comedian, but the ump failed
to see the joke and sent Hap back
to the bench.

Frosli Hoopsters
Face Two Games
Salem High, DeNeffe Five
Will Be Opponents
With one game with Salem high
at Salem definitely scheduled for
Saturday night and another witli
DeNeffe’s of Eugene tentatively
arranged for Friday night, the
Oregon freshman squad faces an
other busy week-end.
So far this season the yearlings
have played three games winning
two and losing one. The stiff com
petition found in each of the three
games seems to have been just
what Callison’s squad needed, for
their teamwork, both offensively
and defensively, has improved with
each contest.
The game with the DeNeffe out
fit will most likely prove to be the
yearlings’ stiffest competition. The
quintet is composed of ex-college
stars, with a recent addition of
three Oregon freshmen who are in
eligible for competition. Henry Si
mons, Ike Donin, and Jack Rob
ertson, three of Callison’s most
promising candidates at the start
of the season, will play with the
Eugene amateur outfit. Other
players on Frank Reinhart’s squad
include Charles North, who played
for Southern Oregon normal, Jim
Hanley and Jim Bally, both of
whom formerly played with the
Webfoot squad.
Little is known of the Salem
five. For the last two years they
have placed high in the state hoop
tournament and pre-season re
ports indicate they have a strong
| team this year.

The FAVORITE
tobacco of the

IP you want to know the Dart
mouth man’s favorite tobacco,
watcli him as he loads his pipe be
tween classes in front of Dart

strolls along Wheelock Street and
pulls the familiar blue tin of Edge
worth out of his pocket.
A pipe and Edgeworth—this i3
the smoking combination that has
won the college man. Harvard,
Cornell, Michigan, Stanford, Illi

Natural merit has made Edgeworth
the favorite smoking tobacco in
America’s leading colleges and uni

College men everywhere respond
to the appeal of pipes packed with
cool, slow-burning Edgeworth. Be
guided by their choice; try Edge
