On Road Trip
Roberts Outstanding Man;
Mentor Hopes To Take
Games From Idaho
The University of Oregon bas
ketball squad returned to the cam
pus yesterday after a successful
road trip on which they took three
out of five games. Practice will
y’ start immediately for the two
games with Idaho on Monday and
Tuesday, February 16 and 17.
Coach Bill Reinhart expressed
himself as being very pleased with
the showing made by the squad on
their trip. “They showed a very
much improved brand of basket
ball,” he stated. “The two wins
from Idaho were deserved and we
should have taken at least one
game from the Cougars. If the
first game had been five minutes
longer I believe we would have
taken it easily, and the second
fray was ours until the last few
minutes when the Staters went
wild.”
Cap Roberts, big sophomore cen
ter, stood out during the trip, Rein
^ hart stated. “In the last three
games, particularly,” he said,
“Roberts played sensational ball, j
He was partly responsible for the j
great rally in the opening Cougar
fray. In the last game of the trip,
against Gonzaga, he was the out
standing man on the floor, scor
ing seven field goals. Windy Calk
ins played well, also, throughout
the series.”
According to Reinhart. Oregon
should take both games from Ida
ho, and "there's no reason why we
'shouldn’t cop a couple from Oregon
State.”

Honorary Entertained
At Wednesday Meeting
At a meeting of Phi Epsilon
Kappa, men's physical education
honorary, on Wednesday night the
members were entertained with a
talk given by Paul R. Washke,
intramural director. Mr. Washke
told in detail of a trip made to
Alaska in charge of 20 boys from
Bellingham, Washing ton, who
planned to work in the salmon
canneries.
Mr. Washke spoke at length on
the various phases of the canning
and sealing industries, and he
sketched for his audience that vast
panorama of snow-covered moun^
tains, icy inlets, and virgin forests
that are synonymous with the
name Alaska. Mr. Washke also
referred to the scattered settle
ments of the northland regions
and especially to Ketchikan.

By Hayward To Shape
Up Winning Team
First Meet To Be March 24
With Oregon State
Relays
Varsity track and field men will
hold their first tryouts of the year
Saturday on Hayward field, Coach
Bill Hayward announced yester
day. Eleven events will be run off.
According to Hayward the try
outs are being held so that he may
get some idea of how his squad
will shape up this season. So far
the turnout has been small and
the veteran mentor stated that he
needed more candidates if he hoped
to have a winning team. The first
meet for the Webfoots, the Oregon
State relays, will be held March 24,
is not far off. Several men have
just turned out and have not yet
gotten into shape for competition.
The loss of six lettermen last
year took 30 points away from the
squad, Hayward stated. These
men, either graduated last year or
not in school, took 30 points
against Oregon State, 31 against
Washington, and 15 in the North
west conference meet.
The events which will be held
include the 75-yard dash; 150
yard, 300-yard, 660-yard, three
quarter mile, shot-put, discus, high
jump, pole vault, broad jump, and
javelin.
Entries in the 75-yard race are
Star r, Bale, Park, Rollwage,
Scheiber, and Marrs.
300-yard: Holman, Dollof, New
man, Bale, Rollwage, Marrs.

Shot-put: Moeller, Zane, Hall,
and Jesse.
High-jump: Thomas, Allen, Moel
ler, and Holman.
Discui: Moeller, Hall and Zane.
Entries in other events will be
taken at the field. The meet will
start at 2 o’clock Saturday after
noon.

Health Service To Test

PORT NEWS
By Phil Cogswell
i
Spring Football—
Coach Spears’ ideas of the value
of spring football practice are
clear and convincing, but there's
nothing like specific examples to
show how great its benefit to a
player may be. Back at Minne
sota Doc had the spring workouts
regularly. Did he ever have any
j stars \ develop from them? Well,
here is one case, and there were
many more like them.
* * *
How Hondo Started—
Fred Hovde, who Spears classes
as one of his greatest players, had
never played football in high
schooi. He didn’t become inter
ested in the game until the spring
of his freshman year at Minnesota,
Hovde weighed 132 pounds and
wanted something to do for exer
cise. They wouldn’t give him a
track suit because they thought
him too small. He went out for
football practices and got a lot of
fun out of them. He worked
pretty hard and derived the bene
fit of instruction from the senior
varsity men and the coaches. The
next fall he turned Out for the
varsity and played less than three
minutes altogether in regular
games.
* * *
Did He Develop?—
After spring practice again in
his sophomore year, Hovde devel
oped lar enough to hold down a
steady job on the varsity in his
junior season. He played at half
or took the quarter’s place.
By the time he was a senior he
had gotten heavier. He weighed
146 pounds. Had he become a
good football player ? Well, he
! was the highest scorer in the
Western conference.
Fred Hovde is still keeping up
his contacts with Doc. The coach
1 has an interesting letter from him
i
from Oxford, where the ex-Minne
sota quarterback is a Rhodes
scholar, and a member of the
school’s “rugger” team, which is
what they call rugby over there.
* » *
The Near Stars—
The great Nagurski had never
played football before he went to
college either. But he turned out
to take advantage of the spring
sessions. His junior year he was
all-Western, his senior year, all
American.
Doc also nas had men who went
out for varsity football in the fall,
but in the spring turned their at
tention to baseball or other sports.
Spears does not criticize fellows
who do this at all.
He has observed, however, men
who were only substitutes in their
senior year for the football team
and the other squads they tried
for. It was certain that if these
men had concentrated on football
alone, and taken advantage of all
the practices, they would have be
come regulars if not gridiron stars.
* * *
The W hole Idea—
Coach .Spears’ plans for spring
I football have nothing compulsory
in them. The sessions will be held
for those who want to play foot
ball for the fun and exercise of it.
Every man needs some sort of
workout, says Doc, and spring
practice will be held for those who
want to play football instead of
golf, handball, or tennis.
These men will be given expert
coaching, and taught fundamen
tals. To make the season inter
esting there will be regular teams
formed and every man will have
a chance to play in games. Of
course these men in spring prac
tice will be under the close ob
servation of Doc’s eye, and he will
know the abilities of those who
turn out for the varsity next fall.

Master’s Degree Necessary
“In the small library the libra
rian must be all things to all men,
women, and children in her com
munity," Miss Long continued.
“She must be all of the things that
each specialist is in the large li
braries.”
It is becoming increasingly nec
essary to nave a master’s degree
in library science, Miss Long
stated. This is earned the second
year in a library school. Most
schools place their graduates, and
the American Library association
has a placement bureau. The li
brarian "gets about $1500 the first
two or three years, after which
her salary may be raised to $2000
or $2100 a year. Beyond that
there is no great increase in re
muneration.
The future in library work lies
in establishing better high school
libraries, in county library work,
and in the adult education work,
Miss Long told the girls.
