    > 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.

These two men have been star
ring with the rest of the Webfoot
basketeers in a season-ending win
ning spurt. Oregon State invades
the campus tonight for the second
game of the series. 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.

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. The wor
ship service, beginning at 6:30
o’clock, v/ill be in charge of Fran

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.

Fred Deuel Reaches Final
In Handball
Next week should see the end j
of the all-campus handball tour- ,
neys as the doubles have entered ,
the final rounds and one finalist ]
in the singles, Fred Deuel, has
been declared. i
The doubles title is eyed by the
Jensen-Johnson and Whitely-Ben
j son combinations. The former
won a title match from Benson
and Whitely last spring, and are
out to repeat their performance.
The hill duo, however, wvre mainly
responsible for A. T. O. capturing
the intramural championship, and
are granted an even chance of
getting revenge.
Fred Deuel fought his way Into
the singles finals by trouncing Bill
i Whitely, 21-18, 21-11. The other
singles participants have been
l slower in struggling to the top,
but Jack Rhine was installed as
a semi-finalist when he staged a
'comeback against Jim Stott, 7-21,
21-9, 21-2. The other position in
the semi-final bracket lies between
Warren Cress and Harvey Benson.
