Newspaper Page TextThe Emerald ♦ SCORE BOARD By Phil Cogswell Mr. Trices Loses Now in Basketball After five years wherein thej suffered 17 successive defeats in basketball from the California Bears, the Stanford Cardinals have turned the tables and licked their Berkeley brothers on the maple court. Does this mean that Nibs Price, recently ousted as California foot ball coach, is slipping at the helm of the basketeers ? Will the Bears begin looking for a successor to a man who could only make it 17 straight over the traditional foe ? The answer is, yes, it is entirely possible. In these days, says Knute Rock ne, it doesn't matter how fine a man a coach is and how much he develops character in his players, he must win. Knute adds, “Our college educators, who decry over emphasis of football, show their lack of sincerity when their own particular school is losing. It is then that they wail loudest and start looking for a new coach though it be in the middle of the season.’’ ' * * * Distinction for Oregon State To Oregon State goes the honor of being first to throw the Huskies for a loss in the present basket ball season. After being licked in the game Monday night, the Beavers upset Washington last night; The score was 37 to 23, and wras the first defeat the boys from Seattle have suffered in more than 20 games so far. However, the Huskies have a big lead in the circuit and probably won’t be caught. O. S. C. has a jinx over Washington. Last year they took three games frAm them, and those were the only three contests the Huskies lost. The Uclas, newest school in the Coast conference, are on top of the basketball heap down South. California beat them once, but now that Stanford has walloped the Bears, the Uclas are ahead in games won. The Trojans are on the bottom for a change. Dr. Ella C.

Lewis, star center, Oregon State's basketeering Beav ers swamped the Washington Hus kies under a deluge of field goals to win the second game of the present series, 37-23, here tonight, i Ken Fagans, forward, who played center in tonight’s game in place of Lewis, literally rushed Swanson, the pride of the Huskies, off his feet, and scored 12 points, while h i s teammate, Ballard, chalked up seven field goals and 1 one foul conversion for 15 points. Fuller led the Washington scorers with 10 points. O. S. C. Opens Scoring Oregon State opened the scoring, early in the game with two field goals before the Huskies came through to sink one. The score varied with one or two points dif ference until, with the score at 31-11, the Beaver quintet broke open the Husky defense and ran the score to 16-11 at half time. Fagans converted a free throw at the beginning of the second half and followed with a long shot j to make the score 19-11. Wash- , ington missed two free throws and Ballard put on a scoring spree and looped three baskets in short order to run the count to 25-13. Gray son came down the center of the floor and sank a one-handed shot, Swygard knocking him down on the play. However, Grayson’s free tosses were nil and Hank Swanson tossed in a gratis shot and imme diately dropped in a field goal to make the score 27-16. Sinks Free Throw Lyman sank a basket and Bal- ; lard a free throw. Fuller and ! Cairney each contributed one point but Lyman and Fagans ran the score to 32-18.

R Power’s Furniture Co. j llth Street and Willamette tj ing a final effort to bid for the Northern division title, was a much different team than the one which the Huskies defeated last night by eight points. Fagans, jumping at center with the towering Swanson, got the tip off at least half of the time and the Beavers took the ball down the floor time and again without an interception to make short lay in shots. Ballard sunk the spheroid from under the net with regularj consistency while Lyman and Fa-1 gans couldn't seem to miss the longer shots. Swan Merrill, Beaver guard, played a stellar, flawless game before he was taken out in the second half with too many fouls. Team Clicks Well With a sudden, unlooked for combination that clicked better than any Coach Gill has ever tried, and one which passed the ball with speedy accuracy and finesse, fans were expecting to see the same lineup face the University of Ore gon quintet when they clash in their annual series starting here Saturday. Without the sensa tional Lewis at center, Gill was not expecting even a half-break against the fast Washington five, but after tonight's game, he indj rated that it was possible that he would use the new combination in tact as long as possible consider ing they flashed as they did against the Huskies.

He abj sent mindedly tripped over first base, spraining his ankle, and had to be carried around the circuit. Illinois playing Northwestern in basketball the other night was be hind at half, 21-4. The Illini coach, Ruby Craig, told his team to go out in the second period and for get all the system of team play they knew. Illinois won, 29 to 27. Scarcity of water has forced the Hoosier swimming to disband. Due to the lack of rainfall, which is the source of water, Blooming ton has only 7 inches of liquid left in the city reservoir. SCHULZ ELECTED NEW CAPTAIN OF GRID TEAM (Continued from rage One) which should not have been the case with such a leader as Kitz miller,” declared Spears. “And also the fellows didn't take advan tage of the psychological moments in the game when they had the other team where a little push would have routed them.’’ Besides paying a tribute to Kitzmiller, Spears thanked his coaching staff for its cooperation, especially mentioning Bill Hay ward, of whom he said no man felt more deeply, or worked harder for Oregon to win.

THIS A TTIi ACTION ONLY Matinees 35c Nights 50c New Loges 10c Extra Kelliher First To Pass Test For Honorary Sigma Della Psi Candidate Successfully Fulfills Requirements Forty Applicants Working Toward Fraternity; Bailey Close Mayville Kelliher, freshman in the school of physical education, has the honor of being the first Oregon student to successfully complete the requirement tests of Sigma Delta Psi, national athletic honorary. When two other candi dates fulfill the requirements a lo cal chapter can be established here. Kelliher, who passes tinder the cognomen of "Doc,” experienced no great difficulty with the events and his time of 1 minute and 12 seconds in the 100-yard swim bet tered that of any of the 40 men who are taking the tests. Dash Mark Fast With a goal of 11 3-5 seconds in the 100-yard dash, he broke the tape in 10 2-5 seconds, did the 220 yard low hurdles in 28 3-5 seconds which is nearly 3 seconds under the requirement, and wound up his running a few moments later with a mile ticked off in 5 minutes and 40 seconds. Turning to the field events Kel liher slid over the high jump bar for the required 5 feet, pole vault ed 8 feet, 6 inches above the nec essary mark, and tossed the shot a fraction over the minimum limit of 30 feet. His baseball throw sailed 300 feet, while the require ment is only 250 feet. At punting he easily bested 120 feet, hanging up a mark for 55 yards., He com pleted the tests by displaying per fect form at the handspring, hand stand, and bar vault. Others Trying Out Orville Bailey, football star, is close on Kelliher’s heels with only the mile and 220 low hurdles fac ing him now. Howard Bobbitt, E. H. Clark, Harold Lewis, Leonard j Steele, Roy Hughes, and A1 Haak- ! anson are other men who have completed a majority of the tests and loom as future honorary mem bers. Russ Cutler’s activity in forming the gym section which specializes in the requirements for Sigma Delta Psi has encouraged nearly 40 other men to take the tests. Saturday at 8 o’clock has been set aside for tests and practice in swimming and all who have not fulfilled this requirement are ask ed to attend. Men not enrolled in the section can appear at. any of the class hours and take part in whatever tests have been assigned for that day. HEALTH SERVICE RELIES ON PHYSICAL EDUCATION (Continued from Vage One) without unduly subordinating any phase of the work.” The health service, according to Dr. Miller, is often developed as a department in the school of phy sical education. Very often physi cal education directors are physi cians, and physical education has frequently been advanced by con tributions made by physicians. This he attributes to the fact that those actively engaged in health work can better appreciate the ne cessity of physical education. In regard to the teaching of hy giene by physical education direc tors Dr. Miller says, “In practice the physical educator who does not have a medical training is apt to be better trained as a teacher than his colleagues in the health service, by not being so well grounded in the basic sciences. If his fundamental training in the sciences basic to hygiene is ade quate, then of course, he is quali fied to teach that subject.” Dr. Miller has been the health director of the University of Ore gon since 1925 at which time he first came to this campus. Interest Grows As Rifle Contest Date Approaches U. of O. ROTC Team To Be Chosen for First Meet; Scheduled Feb. 7 As the date on which Oregon enters the R. O. T.

One-third of the teams from each group will participate in the national intercollegiate galley shoot to be held later in the spring. Members of the winning teams in the ninth corps area shoot will be presented with medals. Change None Too Good Although the prospects for Ore gon do not look so good, due to its having lost several good men last year, Captain Bragg believes the team should at least duplicate the standing of last year. Oregon placed fourth last year. O. S. C., with two teams, placed first and third, otherwise Oregon would have taken third place. Washing ton placed second.

Corvallis YWCA Declared Active Mildred McGee Speaks at O. S. G. Gathering “I think the Corvallis Y. VV. C. A. is very active, and the way they incorporate their Y. W. work with their class work is certainly effective,” declared Mildred Mc Gee, World Fellowship chairman of the University Y. W. C. A., up on her return from Corvallis where she spoke Friday on the student pilgrimage to Europe, which she attended last summer. Miss McGee’s audience consist ed of some 100 sophomore girls, she stated. An indoor picnic and program was held under the aus pices of the Y. W. C.

A. A. C. Time trials are being held Tues days and Thursdays in the wom en's pool at 5:15 o’clock with Jack Hewitt, varsity swimming coach, in charge. Hewitt was not satisfied with the trial meet between the frosh and varsity swimming teams two weeks ago. The walls of the wom en's tanks are rather high and there was not enough water to promote good swimming. When the water is low, the swimmers create small waves which greatly impede their progress and cut down their time, it was pointed out. Prepare for Meet An effort is being made by Coach Hewitt to supply the tank with a plentiful amount of water for the meet with thg Multnomah Athletic club of Portland next Saturday. The results of the time trials will not be released until just be fore the Multnomah club meet, but Hewitt said they have been very favorable. The Portland club is very strong this year. Numbered among its stars are ex-Oregon .luminaries. Johnny Anderson, who won the 100-yard and 50-yard free style events last year from Multnomah is with that club this year. In the 220-yard free style last year with the club, Silverman, of Oregon, came in second behind a Multno mah man. This year he is with the club. Men Add Speed In the Portland city swimming meet, which was held about two weeks ago, Anderson did not show up as well as he was expected to. He appeared to be a little out of condition from all reports and will have to get in better shape to beat out his ex-team mates.
