    Webfoot Basketball Five To Face Test Against Idaho Vandals Tonight at Moscow

To See Play
Five hundred miles away from
home, at Moscow, Idaho, the Ore
gon basketball quintet will once
more attempt to break into the
win column tonight, this time at
the expense of the Idaho Vandals.
So far this season Oregon has
managed to drop seven conference
games in a row. Coach Bill Rein
hart has good players and every
game played by the Ducks has
been a close contest. He has tried
several new combinations in an
effort to produce a winning five,
but to no avail. This time, how
ever, he has an entirely new quin
tet and is confident that he will
be able to take at least one, if
A not both, of the Idaho games. Un
less there is a last-minute change,
the starting lineup will be com
posed of Stevens and Dolp, for
wards; Eberhart, center, and Boyle
and Rotenberg, guards.
Vandals Are Fourth
At present “Rich” Fox's Van
dals are in fourth place in North
ern conference standings by vir
tue of a surprise victory over the
Washington State Cougars. They
have a comparatively unexperi
enced team, but one that is im
proving with each game. Pete
Wicks, sensational forward, is one
of the leading scorers of the
league with 51 points, putting him
in eighth place, six points ahead
of Dolp, the Webfoot’s high point
man. His running mate, Barrett,
is not far behind the two. At cen
ter Fox has placed Parks, who
held Swanson, tall Husky center,
down for only six points in the last
Husky-Vandal tilt. He is big and
fast and fits in perfectly with the
Idaho system of play. Hall and
\ Drummond, guards, are experi
enced men, steady on the defense
and crack offensive players.
Webfoot Lineup New
The change in the Webfoot line
up was due to the great showing
made by Wally Boyle and Red
Rotenberg in the last week’s prac
tice sessions Boyle is fast for a
guard and is a steady defensive
player. Rotenberg, a sophomore,
is very aggressive and plays a
hard game all the time. The vet
eran Eberhart, at center, flashed
some of the form that he showed
last year in the last Oregon State
tilt. Kerm Stevens, shifted from
guard to forward, has displayed
uncanny ability at long shots and
is one of the Ducks’ leading
scorers. His running mate will be
Vince Dolp, who has played sensa
tional ball at times this season.
When he is “on,” he is one of the
best forwards in the league.
Vandal Forward
T
This is Pete Wicks, one of the
star offensive men on the Idaho
quintet which will meet the Web
foots at Moscow tonight for the
first time this season.

NEW RUSSIAN STUDENT
REVEALS TRAVEL LOVE

of the Russian border. Nina is
most proud of it and harbors the
deepest regard for the Chinese
people.
“If you want to please me, call
me Chinese,” she pleaded.
Harbin has a large Russian col
ony and is a northern railroad cen
ter with several universities and
a radio station. It is an important
trade center, also. The passenger
trains are not as numerous as in
America. Sometimes there is only
one train during the whole day.
The rich people can always man
age to secure tickets, but the poor
must stand in line—sometimes
waiting in the station houses for
several days, in the mean time
! sleeping on the floor and eating
| as best they can.
The children do not attend school
until they are nine years old. ac
cording to Nina. Then they keep
on for eight years in which a high
school course is included. There
is no choice of subjects—there are
no electives whatsoever. Of the
languages, French and German is
taught and a little English.
"Is there any electricity in Eur
ope?” was the bewildering ques
tion asked of Nina by an informa
tion-seeking matron of San Fran
cisco about a year ago. Talk of
Russia brought similar queries un
til Nina discovered a point about
Americans for herself:
"Mention something about Rus
sia to an American and he always
thinks of one of two words: vodka
and samovar.’’
"I'm going to Europe some day
soon.” Nina's eyes lighted up with
the prospect. “It’s the only place
I haven’t been that I want to see.
I’ll go there, too. All one has to
do is to wish that he were there,
and he’ll be there some day, some
how. Don’t you think that’s true?"
“Why,—yes.”
The “Chinese”-Russian turned
to look at the clock. “I wish I
were upstairs studying," she said.
And so the interview ended.
Even a journalist won’t interfere
with a charming lady's wish.
Independents To
Play on Monday
International House Loses
Chance at Title
Smith’s Independents received
ample revenge for a previous set
back Vt the hands of Interna
tional house when they smothered
their erstwhile conquerors in
straight sets 15-9, 15-0. The win
ners will play La Casa Filipina at
4 o’clock Monday to decide who
will meet the Phi Delts in the
finals Tuesday.
International house slowly but
surely amassed a lead in the open
ing set until they led 7-3. At this
juncture the Independents rallied
and, after some spirited volleying,
knotted the score at 8-all. Frank
Smith arrived on the scene then
and the score quickly mounted to
15. The second set was closer
than the tally sheet indicated with
International house failing to get
any breaks. Accurate placement
shots by Leroy James of 'the Inde
pendents featured this set. Pulido,
Smith, Inez, Padilla, Allen, Tuttle,
and Lee played for International
house, while Kjoesness, James,
Sprague, Rutherford, F. Smith,
and Goodnough were across the
net.

PHILOGRAMS ♦ •
SPOT DOPE ON
PORT NEWS
By Phil Cogswell
Fight May Return—
Despite the fact that reports say
the frosh basketeers have sunk a
little below sea level in spirits dur
ing the week, they can be expect
ed to be back in a fighting mood
tonight. The four game series
with the rooks stands one apiece,
and this evening is Oregon’s turn
to win. So far the victories have
gone to the team which was play
ing on its home floor.
Quit Too Soon—
Mark Temple and LeGrand
Houghton, guards, both are good
at handling the ball and fit in nice
ly with team play. Chuck Wishard
also has been doing well as a
guard. He and temple are the
husky boys from the frosh football
team.
Coach Callison has had trouble
getting the frosh to play a con
sistent game. Several times it has
worked out that after piling up a
good lead themselves, the year
lings have been helpless to stop
a drive on the part of the oppon
ents. In the last rook game the
Orangemen came up from way be
hind to win by a basket.
Another Eberhart—
Jim Watts, at forward, seems
to be the chief, point getter for
the team. He has an advantage of
being tall, and has a good high
looping style of shooting. Another
forward, who has been flashing at
times, is a lanky fellow, Joe Wil
son. Then from the family of Eb
erharts, who have had a member
prominent in Oregon basketball
for a long time, comes Bill Eber
hart. Bill's unlike Jean, is not tall,
but he has developed rapidly since
the start of the season.
Elastic Lillard —
There are a lot of good players
on the Webfoot yearling squad.
Some of them should be varsity
stars before long. Joe Lillard, the
high jumping center, has a world
of possibilities.
Joe is under six feet tall yet he
can actually jump up and stick
his hand six inches above the hoop
of the basket. That’s a height of
10 feet 6 inches. Lillard, a great
football forward passer, heaves a
basketball terrifically hard with
either hand. The other night he
passed to Temple, who is a solid
boy himself. The ball hit Temple
on the chin and knocked him flat.
Gossip Scarce in
German Papers
Dr. Spann Believes Press
Is More Literary
“The German newspaper is both
a magazine and a newspaper, and
is good reading even several days
later,” Dr. Meno Spann, assistant
professor of German, said in speak
ing of the German press at a
luncheon gathering of Sigma Del
ta Chi, international professional
journalism fraternity, yesterday
noon.
“It is more literary and not so
gossipy in nature as the Ameri
can press. There is no society
news unless it is of great import
ance, such as the marriage of some
leading political figure; and there
is little local news. Political dis
cussions and cultural discussions
form a large part of the newspa
per material, the Uerman paper
usually taking definite stands on
the questions of the day,” Dr.
Spann continued.
History Traced
The history of Gorman journal
ism was traced by the University
instructor, who mentioned travel
ing scholars a the first conveyers
of news. “The Z'j years' war end
ed her literary program at the
time, setting Germany back 150
years, so that during England's
Elizabethan period, and France's
great period, personified in Mo
liere, Germany from a literary
standpoint was about dead. .Steady
development, however, began in
the latter part of the eighteenth
century resulting in the German
‘newspaper of today,” Dr. Spann
concluded.
Tliacher To Speak
W. F. G. Thacher, professor of
English and advertising, will speak
in McMinnville today before the
Rotary club on the subject of ad
vertising. While he is away Dean
: Eric W. Allen, professor of jour
jnalism. will take his class in ad
1 vertismg.
I
Main Library Receives
Recent Religious Book
“Pathways to Certainty” by
Williams Adams Brown is one of
the latest religious books that the
University library has received.
The selection was taken from the
religious book club list of noted
books.
The book has been written for
those who, confused by the per
plexities of modern life, seek some
sort of certainty upon which to
build a faith in themselves, in their
world, and in their God. Professor
Brown not only tells how his re
ligious convictions arise, but how
they can be justified in the face of
many adverse claimants. Certain
ty must be won by each one for
himself, but this book will help
point out the way.
Those who are troubled by the
current teachings of the humanist
movement in religion will find
much in this book to reassure
them.
Persons who have read “A Pre
face to Morals” and “The Quest for'
Certainty" will sucessfulty find an
swers to many of their questions.
In fact though the book, as Pro
fessor Brown explains, was not
written for that purpose it may be
considered a reply to Mr. Lipp
I mann and to Professor Dewey.

Risque Articles Are Target
For Faculty Members
At Seattle
•
Handing in his resignation while
ihe associated students board of j
control was considering a motion I
to oust him, Clarence “Tank” Tay- ^
ior, associate editor of the Univer- j
sity humor magazine, Columns,
quit yesterday because all "copy”
must be censored before it is pub
lished. This was an outgrowth of
recent trouble which had arisen
after parents and faculty pro
tested that the magazine articles
were a bit too daring and risque.
Would Not Resign
Taylor previously expressed his
determination not to resign, ac
cording to a statement which the
University of Washington Daily
allowed him to make in the col
umns of the paper, because “that
would not change a hard-boiled
faculty attitude,” and would not
buy him any particular “bananas.”
It was decided that all material
would be censored by Professor
Leslie Ayer, of the law school, be
fore it appeared in the magazine.
Previous to this decision. Profes
sor Ayer reviewed the February
issue of Columns, commenting on
it, according to the Daily, thus:
“Compared with some former is
sues, its contrast is notable for
the lack of vulgarity.”
' Editor States Stand
In speaking of the censorship
before it came into effect, Ralph
Shaffer, editor, said, “My resigna
tion, as I see it, would only serve
to further the committee’s in
tended purpose of abolishing the
magazine. There would be a new
and more capable editor, perhaps,
but one who would be subjected
to the same regulations. I intend
to try to cooperate with the fac
ulty committee in putting out a
magazine of good taste. But 1 do
not intend to remove every word
or line I am directed to delete.”
Statement Is Quoted
Taylor’s statement in the Daily
reads: “If Dean Ayer wants to
usurp Ralph Shaffer’s place as edi
tor of Columns, it’s O. K. by me.
M aybe the faculty realizes that
the students are having all the
fun in putting out the publication
and resent it. They have a right
to their attitude, for any dummy
who stops to think is able to see
that student affairs aren't student
affairs at all but merely a con
descending concession.

attention to a few unintelligent
Christers who have nothing bet
ter to do than to write complain
ing, meddlesome letters about
things they don’t understand and
have no sympathy with.
If the students don't like it, let
them say so; but if ‘the old lady
from Dubuque' doesn’t care for it,
let her console herself with a few
copies of some Sunday school pa
pers or an abridged copy of the
Bible.”
Stetson Reappointed
Professor F. L. Stetson, of the
school of education, has been re
appointed chairman of the Oregon
State Teachers association re
search committee, acording to an
nouncement received yesterday
from L. W. Turnbull, president of
the organization.
This is the third year which
Professor Stetson has served on
the O. S. T. A. research committee.
The committee is in charge of out
lining research activities of the
organization.
