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.

CORVALLIS, Jan. 27.— (Spe
cial to the Emerald)—Minus the
services of Ed. 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. Ballard, Swygard
and Swanson contributed the rest
! of the points, the game ending be
! fore Washington awoke to “what
the score was.”

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.

also the fellows didn't take advan

in the game when they had the

Besides paying a tribute to
Kitzmiller, Spears thanked his
coaching staff for its cooperation,
especially mentioning Bill Hay

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. C. intercolle
giate galley rifle shoot nears, re
newed vigor is shown by Oregon
riflemen, and those trying out for
tlie team are following the prac
tice schedule closely. The first
shoot is scheduled for the week
ending February 7, at which time
the team will be chosen.
Shoots will be held each week
thereafter until February 28.
Many Teams Enter
Sixty-four R. O. T. C. rifle
:eams have entered the ninth corps
area intercollegiate galley rifle
shoots, in which Oregon is com
peting, according to information
received from ninth corps area
headquarters. The group is di
vided into three divisions, the sen
iors consisting of teams from uni
versities and colleges, the juniors
made up of high schools, junior
colleges, and private military
schools, and the third group con
sists of high schools and private
military academies.
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.
One new man, Moynalian from
California, who has had consider
able experience, ha3 reported at
practice the last week.
Other Competitors Listed
Others who are out are: Robert
Reiling, Spencer Raynor, Jon Con
dor, Gaylord Cox, Edward Judkins,
L. E. Smith, Vernal Shoemaker,
and Harold Menturn, all of whom
were on the team last year, and
Carey Thompson, Dick Somers,
Wayne Felts, and Harold Kenzell,
who are members of the Sigma
Phi Epsilon team which won the
intramural rifle cup.

where she spoke Friday on the
student pilgrimage to Europe,
which she attended last summer.
Miss McGee’s audience consist

program was held under the aus
pices of the Y. W. C. A. cabinet,
for the purpose of stimulating in
terest in a world-fellowship project

“Each class has a special pro

was to help them formulate new
interests.”

Secret Trials in

Tough Battle Is Expected
When Oregon Clashes
With M. 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.
