BOARD
By Phil Cogswell
—IDAHO—
As the Oregon basketball team
has continued to drop game after
game, those few optimistic fans
remaining around school have kept
chipping in with the remark, “Well,
we'll beat Idaho anyway.’’ The
team leaves this afternoon for
Moscow where two contests will
be played this,week-end. It will
be seen whether the boys will get
t going sufficiently to beat the Van
I dais or not.
—UPSET—
The Webfoots certainly are po
tentially stronger than Idaho. Even
though the latter did nose out the
Cougars one game, it was a tre
mendous upset. Washington State
proved it by turning around and
whipping them 37 to 13 in the sec
ond game. Yes, Oregon should
certainly break into the win col
umn at Idaho, and all the fellows
on the squad are going north with
that conviction with them.
—PAID—
Of course, it’s bad to boo the
officials at a hoop game. Fla
1 grantly poor sportsmanship and
all that. However, if one must
boo, it is better to confine it to
the referee or umpire than to pick
on the players. In the first place
the official is getting paid while
the player who makes a mistake
is working hard for nothing but an
intangible profit.
One thing about the conditions I
up at McArthur court, riding has
n’t started yet on the players. It
has at other schools and is the
lowest of low down spirit. Basket
ball players are highly keyed up
and everything depends upon each
main maintaining that righ psy
chological attitude. It’s easy for
the crowd to get a player’s goat
and then he goes to pieces com
pletely.
—STOPPED—
Remember the player is out
there doing the best he knows how
and, incidentally, doing a whole lot
more than the fellows sitting in
the bleachers. Back East the other
day a college was staging the fin

Vandals First Time
This Season
.Ten Hoopsters Make Trip
To Idaho; Five Games
Are Scheduled
Ten Webfoot hoopsters, accom
panied by Coach Bill Reinhart and
j Student Manager Norman East
I man, will leave this afternoon at 4
[ o'clock for oscow, Idaho, where
! they will tangle with the Vandals
Friday and Saturday nights in the
first meeting between the two
teams this year.
The ten players making the trip
include Jean Eberhart, Cap Rob
erts, Wally Boyle, Red Rotenberg,
Bill Keenan, Kerm Stevens, Hank
Levoff, Windy Calkins, Vincent
Dolp, and Cliff Horner.
Oregon Has Chance
Coach Reinhart expressed con
fidence last night that his squad
had "more than an even chance to
break into the win column. “They
have an even chance against any
team in the league,’’ he stated. “If
the boys only get going, there’s
no telling where we will end the
season. Naturally the boys im
prove with every game and they’re
bound to click sometime. This
should be the logical time.”
New Lineup Used
The Duck mentor also announc
ed that he had been using a new
first string combination this j
wee\c, consisting of Stevens and j
Dolp, forwards, Eberhart, center,
Rotenberg and Boyle, guards,
which will most likely be the start
ing lineup. Boyle and Rotenberg
have been steadily improving since
the start of the season.

Dear Friends:
Personally I never bought an engagement ring in my
life. I was on the verge of buyin’ one one time but she
changed her mind.
Which is a woman’s privilege, I s’pose.
But the average girl wears only one engagement ring
in her whole life. There are' exceptions to the rule, but
I’m talking about the average.
That’s why it’s important to select that engagement
diamond with care. You’ll have to admit that my argu
ments are good.
So I advise any young man to see the beautiful assort
ment of sparklers here at the store and talk the matter
over ith Mr. Skeie. He knows diamonds.
If it comes from Skeie’s it will be good.

Pennsylvania’s Athletic Plan
Not Pratical Here9 Says Hall
Pennsylvania's athletic policy
adopted this week by its new pres
ident, Thomas S. Gates, in which
the coaches are
employed on a
strictly professo
rial basis and re
ceive professors’
salaries, is an
ideal plan, but
hot practical on
the Pacific coast,
said President
Arnold Bennett
Hall, yesterday.
Dr. Hall two years ago to
hire its next coach on the profes
sorial plan. However, it was soon
found by the executive council,
student governing body, that it
would not be wise to employ a
coach of national reputation un
less he wa3 given a long-term con
tract. It was also found that with
other schools paying high coach
ing salaries Oregon could not get
a prominent coach unless it met
the competitive price.
The coaches at Oregon are on a
professorial basis only in that
they are paid for instructing in
physical education by the Univer
sity. They receive additional pay
from the studehts for coaching.
Competition Too Great
“There is too much competition
among coast conference schools in
the matter of coaches’ salaries to
make a complete professorial sys
tem practical here,’’ Hall said. “In
the East, where coaches are not
so highly paid, it might be pos
sible to employ them as profes
sors and pay them accordingly.”
Eight years ago, under direction
of John F. Bovard, dean of the
| school of physical education, Ore
gon tried out the professoria
i coaching system and probably was
;the first school to adopt it. There
were two drawbacks to it, how
ever. First, even in those days it
[was necessary to pay a coach
more than a professor received if
Oregon intended to retain a good
man. Second, that it was found
impossible to maintain student
government and at the same time
a professorial system as it was
the students who paid most of the
coaches' salaries.
Coast Staffs Superior
At the present time it is gen
erally believed that the coaching
staffs on the coast are superior
to any section of the country. Pop
Warner at Stanford, Dr. Spears at
Oregon, Howard Jones at U. S. C.,
Jimmy Phelan at Washington, and
“Navy" Bill Ingram at California
are all receiving more than $10,
000 a year, which is considerably
more than the professors’ salaries
at the same schools. On the
other hand, the coaches are in a
highly competitive field, while the
professors are not.
Some of the professors here did
not think the Pennsylvania scheme
feasible, if Penn is to continue to
compete with other large schools
in her own class. A good coach,
they pointed out, would not con
tinue on the Penn staff at a pro
fessor’s salary if he could receive
more elsewhere. A poor coach
would not be desirable even at
Pennsylvania, as the disastrous
season just concluded indicates,
although, of course, there was no
intimation that the coach was in
capable. The fact remains that
he lost games and was not re
employed.

PRINCESS, BEAU AND
DOG THEMES OF PLAYS
(Continued from Faye One)
Golden; “The Beau of Bath,” by
Constance D’Arcy Mackay; and
“The Dog,” by Doris Halman.
Magician’s Shop Scene
The action of the first play,
which is directed by Erma Duvall,
is set in the shop of a magician
who can make little girjs vanish
and return as princesses, and land
lords vanish and never return.
The cast is as follows: Cindy,
Geneva Barr; Mr. I-Say, Harvey
Welch; Matinka, Martin Galleghar;
the king, George Root.
"The Beau of Bath,” directed
by Celia Thoma, is the story of
an elderly beau who, dreaming at
Christmas eve, has one more
chance to speak to his old sweet
heart. This play is one of a ser
ies by the same author written on
historical characters. The beau
was in English history in the 18th
century. Tlie cast is as follows:
the beau, Gene Love; the lady of
the Portrait, Jane Warner; Jepson,
Miles Shaw'.
Charge Found Necessary
The third play, “The Dog” tells
of a pretty but foolish little girl
who goes out to kill a bear and
kills a woodman’s dog instead. It
is directed by Florence Holloway
and is cast as follows: the city
man, Jay Downs; the woodsman,
James Henderson; Tiny (the girl),
Jane Stange.
For this program the drama de
partment has found it necessary
to charge 10 cents in order to meet
the demands of the publishers for
the Ust of the plays.

Each Team Scoring Win
On Home Floor
Houghton Recovers From
Injury; Starling Lineup
Indefinite
By B ALT BAKER
With the “Little Civil War” se
ries even tip. both teams handing
in wins on their respective home
courts, the frosh and rooks tangle
again tomorrow night at McAr
thur court. Last week-end the
Oregon Babes suffered a 30-13 lac
ing Friday night, and then trav
eled to Corvallis Saturday to take
a 26-24 defeat at the hands of a
rejuvenated Orange outfit.
With the count on even terms
both teams are out for blood.
From the looks of the frosh work
outs the past week, it would be a
safe bet that the Oregon yearlings
will have plenty to say about the
results.
Stalling Perfected
Coach Callison, in preparing his
charges for the coming scraps, has
spent most of the time in develop
ing a sure-fire stall for time that
proved so fatal in last week's
game. With this play to fall back
on and a little brains on the floor
to direct it, the frosh will prob
ably be out in the clear toward
keeping the game on ice once they
put it there.
In effecting a scoring combina
tion that can stand the gaff, Calli
son plans to use a few new men
in the regular lineup. Chuck
Wishard, a rough and tough six
footer, who incidentally plays a
great game of football, has been
getting the call at regular guard
all week and looks like a cinch to
get in the game. Wishard’s floor
work and shooting aren’t all that
they might be, but he has plenty
of drive and a decided height ad
vantage.
Forwards Compete
Along with Wishard will prob
ably be the regular combination
of Watts, Lillard, Temple, and
either Houghton or Olinger.
Houghton has been laid up all
week with a bad hip that's jus),
now rounding into shape, and
comes back to the freshman squad
to give Olinger a run for a for
ward berth. Watts and Temple
in particular have shown much im
provement over last week’s per
formance. Watts seems to have
at last found his eye, and with
Temple starting off the scoring
plays in good shape, should con
nect pretty regularly with the
hoop.
In the line of reserves, Eber
hart, Oleson, Jeffers, Wilson, and
Ballaid are holding down the
bench at present but will undoubt
edly see service in the games.
MODERN EVILS SHOWN
IN BLANSHARD TALK
(Continued from Page One)
working day, Mr. Blanshard con
tended.
“The worker today does not even
have the dignity of a horse be
cause, when a horse gets old he is
fed, while a laborer is fired.”
Discussing the criticism of pro
posed changes in the capitalistic
system—that the urge to all pro
gress will be destroyed when the
desire for profits is taken away—
the lecturer said, “As a matter of
fact many people today do serve
without the profit, motive. Pro
fessors and many professional men
are examples. But because the
wealthy man has been made so
conspicuous, a standard of wealth
has been set up.”
Rlr. Blanshard concluded with
further emphasis on his plea to
the educated classes to concern
themselves with the problems and
to apply their training to them.
Following his lecture a forum
was conducted and he was ques
tioned by the audience on topics
ranging from piece work to the
philosophy of the poet, “A. E."
One student, who might have dis
liked the speaker's implication
that “most students are dead from ;
j the neck up when it comes to la-;
bor reform,” wanted to know
l whether he would have to wait
j another year to hear such a lec
ture.
Mr. Blanshard will speak again
this morning at 9 o’clock on prob
lems of racketeering and city cor
ruption at room 101 in the Jour
nalism building. Interested stu
dents are invited to attend.
His visit to Eugene was ar
ranged by the University, with
Louis A. Wood, associate profes
sor of economics, and John Muel
ler, professor of sociology, making
arrangements. The Industrial and
World Fellowship groups of the
Y. W. C. A. helped in sponsoring
the lecturer's appearance.
