By Phil Cogswell
Injured Beavers Play
Banged Up Contest
Nothing like having a bunch of
cripples on a team to make it a
good one. Take the case of Ore
gon State. With their star hoop
center so badly hurt that he could
n't play at all, and with Fagans,
having only the efficiency of a one
legged man due to a torn muscle
in the other one, and with other
t sundry ..ailments,., the ..Staters
played another splendid game
Saturday night and Oregon lost
another bne.
Incidentally those two sick men,
Fagans and Ballard, who despite -
expectations were not confined to
wheel chairs, but circulated on
their natural supports, scored 32
points together, all but 8 of the
Beavers’ total. And did they look
sick doing it!
The Webfoots came back at the
start of the second half when the
score was 20 to 9 against them,
and fought up within one point of
equalling the count. It was 22 to
21. Ballard and Fagans found the
range again, however, and Rein
hart's men being supposedly in
. fine condition, had no chance to
match the superior stamina and
drive of those weak, suffering,
Corvallis men.

Defeat for Ducks
Huskies Remain in First
Place; Beavers in
Second Position
The Oregon basketball quintet
continues to remain in undisputed
possession of the cellar position in
the northern section of the coast
conference standings as a result of
their seventh straight defeat last
Saturday night, this time at the
hands of the Oregon State hoop
sters, 40 to 26.
Washington Loads Race
The University of Washington
five, despite their first loss last
week to Oregon State, remain at
the top of the list. Oregon State
with two wins and one defeat dur
ing the week, forged ahead of the
Washington State to take second
place. The Cougars took the Idaho
Vandals into camp Saturday 37 to
i3 to remain in third position. Ida
ho with a lone victory over Wash
ington State is next with Oregon
trailing behind.
In the soutnern division of the
conference U. C. L. A., despite a
one point loss to Stanford 29 to
28, still heads their league. U. S.
C. took two games from Califor
nia to jump into a tie with Stan
ford for second place. But one
1 game separates the league leading ,
Bruins and the California Bears
I who are in the cellar.
Webfeet Stage Rally
,Last Saturday's contest at Cor
vallis ran true to advance predic- j
tions and despite the crippled con
dition of the Orangemen and the
desperate rally staged by the Web
feet at the first of the second per
iod, the Staters had the edge
throughout the game. Jean Eber
hart managed to get the tip-off
most of the time but the Beavers
took the ball away time and time
again. The game was one of the
fastest played this year and both ,
j sides missed cinch shots often so
fast was the battle.
Rod Ballard, who was reported
to be under the care of a physi
cian, had a big night, tossing in
eight field goals and a foul con
version for a total of 17 points.
Kerm Stevens led the Ducks with
seven markers.
Rifle Team Meets
Stiff Competition
Eight Schools Scheduled
To Shoot With Oregon
The University of Oregon rifle
corps assumed active participation
in the ninth corps areft gallery ri
fle shoot yesterday, when 13 rifle
men entered the matches as sched
uled by ninth corps area headquar
ters.
This week Oregon is competing
with Mississippi Agraculture and
Mechanical college, U. S. Military
academy, W. L. A. C. rifle team,
Nashville, Tennessee; the Univer
sity of Tennessee, Massachusetts
Institute of Technology, New Mex
ico State college, Kansas State i
Agricultural college, and the Uni
versity of Cincinnati. At the end
of the week the aggregated score
will be sent to each school.
A tentative list of those who
will shoot during- the week is as
follows: Robert Reiling, Spencer
Raynor, Claud Conder, Gaylord
Cox, Edward Judkins, L. E. Smith,
Vernal Shoemaker, Howard Min
1 turn, Wayne Felts, Carey Thomp
son, Dick Somers, Harold Kinzell,
and Moynahan. Each man is re
quired to shoot from the four po
sitions, prone, sitting, kneeling,
and standing, and turn his card in
to Captain Bragg, rifle team coach,
who will compute the aggregated
scores of each man. The ten men
standing highest in marksmanship
at the end of the week will consti
tute the team for the following
week. Matches will be held each
week until February 28.
The ten men with the highest to
tal score at the end of the last
week of matches will be given a
sweater by the military depart
ment and a gold shield pin by the
associated students.
1931 SUMMER SCHOOL
CRUISES ANNOUNCED
(Continued from I’ar;c One)
Sweetser, professor of botany, will
be the instructor in that subject.
Dr. E. L. Packard, professor of
paleontology, will give a course in
geology.
Swimming, surfboarding, and in
teresting side trips are planned for
the entertainment of visitors.
Will See Volcanoes
The students will see the fa
mous Kilauea volcano, observe the
native life of the islands, as well
as enjoy the many unique and de
licious fruits and native dishes of
Hawaii.
Oregon cruises have become na
tionally known, and last year drew
students from all over the United
States. Mr. Powers expressed the
belief that reservations would be
filled before summer, and an
nounced that the students on the
Alaska cruise will be limited to
140.
Inquiries concerning either of
the educational excursions may be
addressed to the extension division
of the University or to the exten
sion center, Oregon building, Port

In a swimming meet, featured
by the shattering and tying of sev
eral records, the University of
Oregon natators decisively out
pointed the Multnomah Athletic
club of Portland 54-30 last Satur
day night in the first meet of the
season. Oregon took first places
in all events except two.
The contest was featured by the
brilliant performance of McGowan
Miller, star dash man of the Ore
gon squad. Miller won the 40
yard dash in :18:9, which tied the
Pacific Coast record in that event.
Dahle of the Multnomah club
came in second and Bob Needham,
Oregon, third. Miller pulled out a
few feet ahead of Dahle and Need
ham, soon after the crack of the
gun. Both men pushed him to the
limit, but with a tremendous burst
of speed, Miller finished several
feet in the lead.
Clul* Takes Relay
The 160-yard relay was taken
by Multnomah club in 1:19 4-5.
The Pacific Coast record is 1:19:2.
Hansen, Multnomah, and Needham
led off. Hansen was away a frac
tion of a second faster than Need
ham. But for the distance made
by this difference, their speed and
position remained the same. Char
ley Foster and Palmer McKim
were unable to overcome the costly
advantage. Oglesby pulled up on
his opponent a trifle but could not
close the gap. The swimming was
extremely close but for that slight
advantage.
Paul Lafferty, Oregon, broke the
> Oregon state tank record in the
100-yard breast stroke. His time
was 1:12 2-5. The previous record
was 1:15:0. Lafferty gained a big
lead on the second lap and main
tained it throughout. Steve Fletch
er, Oregon, pulled ahead of Moon,
Multnomah, on the third lap, to
come in second.
Foster Wins 440
The real test for endurance came
in the 440-yard dash, which Fos
ter, Oregon, won in 5:40:. He
beat McKim, his teammate, and
Hansen and Chuck Silverman of
the club, by half a lap. Silverman,
the club’s distance ace, came in
last.
The 440-yard dash is 22 lengths
j of the pool. Foster and Hansen
took a very early lead, keeping to
gether for several laps. On the
fourth lap, McKim pulled up even
with Foster and Hansen. Foster
and McKim forged ahead of Han
sen about 20 feet. Foster soon
pulled ahead of hi:> teammate and
lengthened his lead to almost a
whole lap, which he maintained.
Hansen an 1 Silverman were swim
ming abreast when suddenly Han
i sen dashed ahead to catch up with
McKim and passed him a few sec
onds from the end.
Anderson Scores Again
Johnny Anderson, Multnomah,
won the 300-yard back stroke in
i 1:14 2-5. Harrison Spain, <3regon,
swam abreast with Anderson until
the end, but in turning at one end
of the tank he made a slip which
cost him the race. Fred Sears
; was third.
McMiller tied the Pacific Coast
short course, 60-foot pool record
in the 100-yard flee style at ;J0:.
Thomas, of the club, came in sec
ond, and Needham third.
Francis Oglesby. Oregon, won
the 220-yard free style in 2:314-5.
; Foster, who substituted for Need
ham in this event and after swim
| ming the 440, took second.
I Thomas, of the club, came in
' third.
The 320-yard medley relay was
won by Oregon in 2:38 3-5. Allen,
! Fletcher, and Miller comprised the
| winning group.
The diving as a whole was not
of a high standard. Howard
Dirks won the diving with Stocks,
of the club, second, and Sam Nigh,
Oregon, third.

Smith's Independents threw
their league into a three-way tie
in the intramural volleyball tour
nament yesterday by trouncing
the rangy S. A. E. sextet 15-13,
15-4 yesterday afternoon. Inter
national house, S. A. E., and the
Independents are now tied with
one loss each and two extra games
will be needed to break the dead
lock unless Alpha hall upsets In
ternational house today. As the
Alphians have failed to break into
the win column in previous games,
it appears a cinch for International
house.
As lor the S. A. E.-Independent
game, Gilbert Sprague of the win
ners ran up seven points on his
serve in the first game before the
opposition got going. Then Wal
gren, Bale, Eddy and the rest of
the fraternity crew spurted and
for a brief period had the Inde
pendents scattered and disorgan
ised. With the score 11-9 against
them, “Red” Kjoesness began
burning his hot-shot spikes into
the S. A. E. court and the set was
soon over.
Kjoesness continued his fine
playing in the second game, ably
assisted by Wade Rutherford and
Sprague, and the issue w'as never
in doubt. For the first time in
the tourney the Independents had
nearly a full crew of regulars, only
Frank Smith being absent. In the
other games Fiji broke into the
win column over Zeta hall, A. B.
C. took the odd set from Kappa
Sig, and Alpha Upsilon won from
S. A. M.
SPECIAL GEOLOGICAL
GRANT IS RECEIVED
(Continual from One)
which have since been incorporated
into United States government
maps.
Dr. Hodge is to publish soon the
findings upon which his Toronto
paper was based, and this will
contain what is probably the first
complete and accurate data on the
Columbia river. This is expected
to be of great value to water
power and shipping experts who
wish to be informed on this sec
tion. He also has nearly ready
| for publication a report on North
[Central Oregon, including the
i counties of Wasco, Sherman, Gil
j ham, Jefferson, Crook, and Des
1 chutes, which will include much
valuable information on mineral
• and other economic phases of this
I region.
Attracted National Attention
The recognition of Dr. Hodge by
the national association has won
him warm commendation here
| from his associates and others, '
; who point out that not only has
j Dr. Hodge worked earnestly as a
; man of science, but he has always
j interpreted his findings so that
j they would be of interest and
j value to the layman. His work
i has attracted national attention to
Oregon, since authorities in many
j fields have been drawn here by
i his reports. These men have often
! returned and as a result others
have come on merely to see the
phenomena first described by Dr.
Hodge, it is shown.
When completed, the wdrk to
be done under the commission will
be published and will be available
as an authoritative geologic study
of the region covered.
Dr. E. L. Packard, chairman of
the University research council,
says of Dr. Hodge and the award:
“Dr. Hodge has been honored by
the American Association for the
Advancement of Science by a spe
cial commission for the continu
ance of his studies on the geology
of a portion of the Columbia river.
This recognition came as a result
of the presentation of a paper
read before the Geological Society
of America at their annual meet
ing held in Toronto.
Paper To Be Published
“The paper soon to be pre
sented for publication represents
the culmination of several years’
research conducted at the Univer
sity of Oregon and meagerly fi
nanced by grants made by the
University of Oregon Research
council. It is a part of a more
extensive research program upon
the geology of the northern Cas
cades, particularly the Three Sis
ters, Mt. Jefferson, and Mt. Hood
areas, and the adjacent region to
the eastward including the Des
chutes and lower John Day basin,
and the Columbia river valley from
Roosevelt to the gorge.
“This very important contribu
tion to Oregon geology and to the
Columbia river basin is based upon
two years’ work in a critical sec
tion of the Columbia.
"The data presented at that
Eastern meeting reveals a history
of the Columbia hitherto unsus
pected, and which, when com
pletely written, whl solve many of
the problems of Northwest geol
ogy. A brief outline of the find
ings to date will be of interest to
the layman as well as geologist.”
Hoop Game Goes
To Rooks After
Overtime Battle
Series Now Stands at Tie
With Odds Favoring
Oregon Frosh
Civil war activities between the
Oregon frosh and the Oregon
State rooks remain on even terms
after the two yearling basketball
quintets broke even in the first
half of the four game series. The
rooks took an overtime contest at
Corvallis Saturday by a 26 to 24
score to even up matters. The
ducklings trounced them 30 to 13
Friday night.
The baby Webfeet started out
Saturday night as if they meant
to duplicate the previous night’s
performance, scoring five points
before the rooks could find the
basket. At half time the frosh led
17 to 10 but they could not stop
Lenchitsky and Atkinson with the
result that the final whistle found
the score deadlocked at 23-all.
In the overtime period Atkin
son tossed in a field goal to gain
the lead. Tc.- p’.c made good a
free throw only to have Brown put
the rooks safely ahead with a last
minute tally.
Watts, Temple and Lillard led
the duck attack. Watts scored sev
en points to follow Atkinson of
the rooks by one point for high
scoring honors. Lenchitsky and
Brown played stellar ball for the
Orangemen.
The two quintets wll wind up the
series this week-end. The rooks
will again journey here Friday
night and the final game will be
played at Corvallis the following
night.
