> Cards Defeat Webfoots in Swim Meet Stanford Counts 54 Points, Oregon 30; Three Records Set Fletcher Breaks Mark in Breast Stroke, Clapp Smashes Two Press dispatches to the Eugene Register-Guard last night said that the Stanford swimming team de feated the Webfoots in their meet ^ yesterday, 54 to 30. Three coast intercollegiate records were brok en. Steve Fletcher cracked the ex isting mark in the 200-yard breast stroke formerly held by Burns of Stanford. Fletcher’s time was 2:40.8. Paul Lafferty took second in this race and also bettered the record by a full second. Clapp Takes 440 Charles Foster, of Oregon, forc ed Clapp, of the Cardinals to set a new mark in the 440-yard race. Foster was second and Palmer Mc Kim was barely nosed out of third place. Clapp, hard pressed by Og lesby, swam desperately to win again and set a new record in the 220-yard free style. Harrison Spain, Webfoot back 4 stroker, took third in the 100-yard event, while Sam Night was sec ond in diving. Miller Stars McGowan Miller, Oregon’s star dash man, despite a broken finger, took second in both the 50 and 100-yard sprints. He was nosed out of first by a hair in each event. Two years ago Oregon scored only 16 points against the Cardin als whose swimming rank is among the leaders of the country. Coach Hewitt expressed satisfac tion with the showing of his men. The Lemon-Green aquatic men will meet the Bears either at San Francisco, or Oakland this after noon. It is not expected that Cal ifornia will give them such a hard battle as did Stanford.

Reinhart ex pects his team to put up a far better game than it did two weeks ago, when the Beavers were vic torious. The spirit and teamwork of the players have improved.

Like the habit of thinking, the habit of critical and intelligent ob servation is a habit that will be of increasing value as the years go by, whether applied to the most technical projects ' of research or to the most commonplace problems of daily life.

Coach Billy Reinhart, the vet eran mentor of Oregon's hoop teams, has his men ready to meet the proteges of Slats Gill in a renewal of the feud. Win or lose, Bill has always known his players have done their best for him. He doesn’t think there will be an ex ception to the rule this evening. Varsity Ball Players Out For Practice Batteries Are Working Out On Basketball Court, Precede Squad Last Year's Losses to Nine Put Coach Reinhart In a Hole Coach Bill Reinhart's varsity baseball batteries answered the first call of spring early this week by reporting for practice at the Igloo to get all the winter kinks out of the pitching arms before the regular call goes out for the rest of the squad. Ken Scales and Dave Bloom, lettermen of last year's outfit, have donned practice uniforms, and are doing their bit of hurling with Chappie King, veteran Web foot backstop of a few years back, on the receiving end. Both pitch ers ought to go good this season, with lastt year's varsity experience tucked away. King, a peppery lit tle catcher, who incidentally is a general all-round utility man with plenty of experience behind the bat, seems due for his first colle giate competition since his fresh man year in 1923. Stars Graduate Oregon's club is hard hit by graduation, and Reinhart's job takes on a black look finding men to fill the afore mentioned vacan cies. “Big Train” McDonald, Bill's first-string hurler, has withdrawn from college to give his undivided attention to married life. Ken Robie, the fiery little third base man of big league caliber, fin ished his third year of competi tion last season and consequently PMILOGRAMS * - SportDnews°n By Phi! Cogswell Reform Unlikely— One thing is certain tonight and that is when the Webfoots start j out to get that first basketball game back from Oregon State, the crowd isn’t going to be passively neutral. There’s going to be plenty of positive cheering and a lot of the negative kind, meaning boo ing. It has always been that way, when this series is played, both here and at Corvallis. The best reformer in the world would waste his wind trying to make a partisan crowd keep from being enthusiastic or disgusted, as the- case may be, at a sporting event, and if he did, what would you have left? Not much of the color. * * * Booing Impulsive— If there was no cheering or boo ing at a ball game, the calm might become so depressing the teams couldn't stand it. To stop the booing would be to increase sportsmanship. It won’t be stopped though—it’s too much of a nat ural impulse. So, since it is un premeditated, no one should take permanent offense at it. It has been said that much of the booing at officials is caused from ignorance of the rules of basketball. This is probably true. One suggestion is that the referee explain to the crowd by use of arm signs just why he called the foui. Football officials are re quired to do this on the gridiron. * * * Dribbling Rules— Of the technical penalties, the i broken dribble or walking with the ball always causes the greatest , wrath from the fans, i No player is allowed to dribble, lose control of the ball, get it i again immediately, and continue the dribble. No player is allowed to take more than one step when starting a dribble. Furthermore, it is a personal foul for any player to dribble into a guard who is holding his position. That’s charg ing, but if the guard moves into the dribbler, and comes into per sonal contact, he can be called for blocking. Due allowance, it says in the rule book, shall be made for the man with the ball. * * * Good Reputation— Washington, says Billy Reinhart, is never coached to play dirty basketball. The Huskies, under the tutelage of Hec Edmundson, do not emphasize rough blocking tactics which lead to ill feelings among the players. The crowds at Seattle also have the reputation of being very quiet. There is hardly any enthusiasm unless the score is close. The si lence is far from helping the visit ing team out. In fact, some of the Webfoots reported that it bothered them quite a bit. The crowd has a tremendous psycho logical effect on the players. Wesleyans To Discuss Religions of Great Men “The Religions of Great Men” will be the topic for discussion at the meeting of the Wesley club, Sunday evening, February 22, it was announced yesterday by Miss Dorothy Nyland, director of Wes ley foundation work on the campus. Francisco L. Tubbaq, who will lead the discussion, will emphasize ! the religion of men who have in fluenced thought in the world, such as Gandhi and Kagawa.

Now! ■ i i Shakespeare i i 'Twelfth Night’’ at | GUILD THEATRE \ All Seats 50c MATINEE TODAY AT 2:30 Tickets now at box-office. Tonight and Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday at 8:00 jj won't be back. Both Carl Nelson and Harold Olinger, first basemen, will be lost to the squad. Cece Gabriel, a power behind the bat. and whose heavy hitting was a feature of the Ducks' performance last year, will also be among those missing. All of these boys had plenty on the ball, and their ab sence from the squad will be felt keenly. Shifts Are I.ikely To fill up the first-sack va cancy, Kramer Barnes, a two-year letterman in the outfield, will take to the infield. Barnes held down that position on the Eugene town team last summer and did a good job of it, so the position will not be new to him. Either Johnny Londahl or Brian Mimnaugh is ex pected to fill Robie’s vacant posi tion at third, and the odd man will go to second. Londahl cov ered the keystone sack last year while Mimnaugh, although he made his letter in the outfield, has quite a high-school reputation for infield work. Kerm Stevens will be back to bolster up the play at short-stop. Good regular outfielders seem to be few and far between on this coming ball team, and with the exception of a crowd of last year's reserves and utility men, nothing muen has appeared to date on the horizon. Roy Shannenmn, ex-frosh catcher, may be switched to the outfield in case the backstop com petition gets too hot. Franny An drews, although not in school at present, may return in the spring. Andrews’ fielding was good, but he was weak in hitting. Regular practice will be called as soon as Reinhart gets basket ball off his hands and can devote full time to baseball. SPORTS SHORTS The five-year sport war between Princeton and Harvard is at an end. Peace has settled down upon these two institutions. Competi tion between the universities will start as soon as possible in all games except football. Only eight unassisted triple plays have been made in the major leagues. Alonzo Stagg invented the back field shift for a football team. Fielding Yost first discovered the virtues of the forward pass, and Robert Zuppke invented the hud dle. Yale perfected putting men ahead of the ball, interference. The old wedge play in football came from Princeton, while Harvarc first introduced Rugby in the ’70s causing the original football to be dropped.
