Last week’s play in the North

ball league saw no changes in the
Bill Reinhart
standings. Wash
ington, remaining
idle, is still lead
ing with only one
more victory
needed to clinch
top place honors.
f . Oregon figured
1 p r o m i nently in
the games of the
week. In the four
conte s t s played
last week, the
' We b f o o t s won i
three of them,
taking two from Idaho and one
from O. S. C. Washington State
edged out Idaho Saturday night,
35 to 26, in the other conference
tilt.
Oregon Beats Beavers
The sensational victory over the
Orangemen last Saturday night
was the outstanding achievement
of the Oregon hoopsters this sea
son. The two teams now stand
even in the four-game series, with
one victory each.
Oregon State started off like
certain winners, although the
Ducks managed to keep the score
knotted up for most of the first
half. Their style of play had the
Webfoots stopped apparently, for
when they did score it appeared
to have been done without any
trouble. The second half started I
out much like the first. With I
eight minutes to play, Oregon ,
State led, 30 to 20. Five minutes |
* later the score was 33 to 32 in
favor of Oregon, and as the
Orangemen wilted under the
fierceness of the Duck attack, Eb
erhart and Calkins tossed in easy
cripples to gain a 39-to-32 victory.
Eberhart Leads
Jean Eberhart was the outstand
ing performer of the fray, scoring
16 points, besides playing a fine '
offensive and defensive game.
Windy Calkins came to life during
the last-minute rally to throw in
I three field goals. His first shot
put the Ducks in the lead and his
second gave them a safe margin.
The combination used in the last
half, with Calkins and Eberhart
at forwards, Roberts at center, and
Stevens and Levoff, guards, seems
to be the most effective Reinhart
has used.
The last two games of the se
ries will be played Friday and
Saturday nights. Friday night the
Ducks will travel to Corvallis, and
the following night the Beavers
will play the final contest here.
Washington State will meet the
league - leading Huskies in the
other conference games. The
Cougars still have a chance for
the title, but they will have to
defeat the leaders tonight and to
morrow night at Pullman, and
Idaho will have to drop the Hus
kies Friday and Saturday to bring
about such a result.
Pictorial Slides
Given University
Railroad Donates Material
To Extension Division
Two sets of slides on western
scenery have been given the Uni
versity extension division by the
Southern Pacific railway company.
Twenty-five slides picture the
scenic trip to California via the
“Sunset route.” The route extends
in a great semi-circle through the
south, the southwest, and the west,
crossing the states of Louisiana,
Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and
California. Scenes of New Orleans,
San Antonio, El Paso, and the ]
Roosevelt dam are included.
The other slides illustrate the
“Shasta route” to California, pic
turing the famous Portland roses,
Crater lake, and the Oregon caves.
The University will purchase
new slides on the typical scenes of
wagon trains and trail life on the j
early expeditions to the west. Or- \
iginal sketches for the slides were
made by W. H. Jackson, a pioneer,
who.made the trip to Oregon with;
one of the first wagon trains.
In addition to the scenic slides, |
:he University has acquired a num
ber of film slides which illustrate
the various industries: steel, wool,
cotton, silk, flour, tea, dairying,
gold mining, iron, lumbering, paper,
rice, rubber, wheat, and irrigation.
New slides are now available on
certain literary selections: “The An
cient Mariner,” “Evangeline,” “The
Courtship of Miles Standish,” “The
Man Without a Country,” “Paul
Revere’s Ride,” and some primary
material.
Other new slides picture Asia as
a. whole, with specific illustrations
for the countries of Japan, Korea,
China, Palestine, Australia, Tas
mania, New Zealand, and South
America.

Team Defeats
Bears 62-24
California Men Get Only
One First Place;
Fletcher Stars
Webfoot Mermen Rank in
Second Position on
Pacific Coast
By virtue of a smashing 62 to
24 victory over the University of
California swimming team Sat
urday evening at the Athens club
in Oakland, the Oregon natators
placed themselves second in the
Pacific coast conference and among I
the foremost rank of swimming
teams in the country. The Ducks
were defeated by the strong Stan
ford team the day before in a very j
close meet which resulted in sev-j
eral coast intercollegiate records
being broken.
Webfoots Cop Firsts
Oregon won all firsl places ex
, cept the 100-yard backstroke, and
! Spain, of Oregon, took second in
j that event. Fletcher, Oregon, who ;
broke the Pacific coast breast
i stroke record in the Stanford meet,
won the same event against Cali
fornia in 2:42 1-5, a full two sec
! onds slower than his new mark
i but better than the old record. j
McGowan Miller, Oregon’s star f
■ dash man, took the 50-yard dash 1
in 26 seconds flat, finished second
in the 100-yard free style, and
helped win the 400-yard relay. Mil
ler’s injury week before last was
I a serious blow to the Oregon team.
His performance theretofore had
■ been exceptional and it was ex- j
pected that he would break some :
coast dash records this season. !
Oregon Has Two Wins
The Oregon team has now won
from Oregon State and California,
and has lost to Stanford. Stan
ford’s team is conceded one of the
best in this country. “We shall
start working at once for the meet j
with the Beavers at Corvallis j
March 7, and for the meet with
the Multnomah club here March j
14, and with California here March 1
28,” Jack Hewitt, varsity swim
ming coach, said yesterday.
Oregon’s water polo team did
not fare so well and lost to Cali
fornia, 5 to 0.
The summary of the meet:
400-yard relay (four men) won
by Oregon. Team: Miller, Edwards,
Oglesby, Needham. Time, 4:01 2-5.
200-yard breast stroke: won by
Fletcher, Oregon; second, Laffer
ty (O); third, Burnham (C). Time,

Old Oregon Fight—
That great rally the Webfoots
staged last Saturday, to grab the
basketball game from the bewil
dered Staters, will be remembered
for a long time. If one hadn't
seen it, he would never have be
lieved it could have happened.
The Beavers were coasting along
merrily 10 points ahead with the
game about over. Then came a
finish that you read about in
stories, but see maybe once in a
lifetime.
Oregon State was leading 32 to
23. Without warning, the dor
mant spirit of the Webfoots
changed into a furious attack.
There was a barrage of 16 points
and the score went to 39-32. It
was a return of the old Oregon
' fight.
* * *
Star Forwards— ,
Who starred in that Oregon
J comeback ? Just name them off,
: the men who were in there. Cap
: tain Jean Eberhart, who scored 16
points, tipped in his last basket
to put the game on ice in the last
minute, raising the score from 35
to 37. He played one of the best
games in his three years on (.he
yarsity.
Windy Calkins, holding down
the other forward post opposite
Jean, calmly sunk three baskets
right at the crucial crisis as the
ball players say. His long shot
put Oregon into the lead, and then
he added two more cripples.
Great Guarding—
Cap Roberts, in at center, was
just as important a factor as any
man. In those last few minutes
he gave the Webfoots the tip-off
every time, and was a veritable
ball hawk on the floor.
There’s no adequate way to de
scribe the work of those two
guards, Kerm Stevens and Hank
Levoff. Their defensive play held
the Staters scoreless while the
rally was on. Levoff completely i
checked the Beavers' star, Ballard,
and Stevens' efforts were super
human. When it came time to
stall, three Staters together could
not get that ball away from him.
* * *
Bears Win Title—
That victory over O. S. C.
makes up for a lot of the losses
of the season, but the argument
isn't over yet. There are still two
games left with the Orangemen
this week-end.
California, by taking her fifth
basketball series from Stanford in
as many years, won the Southern
division title. The Trojans lost
out when the lowly Uclas rose up
and drubbed them in the last game
46 to 23.
* * *
Swimmers T'Humph—
The Webfoot swimmers did some
great work down South over the
week-end. Counting 30 points
against the Cardinals was a re
markable achievement, for Stan
ford draws the cream of the Cali
fornia swimmers, and always
ranks as a leading contender for
the national title. They have two
"Olympic stars down there now.
Humbling the Bears by. such a
margin, 62 to 24, speaks for itself.
Hewitt says his men went wild in
that meet. Jack Cody of Mult
nomah remarks that Paul Laf
ferty and Steve Fletcher, Oregon's
two great breast-strokers, are
considered as probable candidates
for the 1932 Olympic team.
Results of Survey
Show Oregon Has
Abundant Power
State’s Resources 10 to 12
Per Cent of U. S. Total;
Population 1 Per Cent
“The state of Oregon with less
than one per cent of the nation’s
people has about 10 to 12 per cent
of the potential hydro-electric en
ergy.” This is the statement of
Emerson P. Schmidt, formerly pro
fessor of economics at the Univer
sity of Oregon and now of the
University of Minnesota, in an arti
cle in the February number of the
Journal of Land and Public Utili
ty Economics.
Gives Complete History
Dr. Schmidt gives a complete
history of the movement for pub
lic ownership of power in Oregon,
beginning with minor phases of
the movement before 1926, and
continuing to the housewives’
amendment of that year, which
was defeated at the polls. He dis
cusses the Grange amendment,
which passed in 1930, and tells
how power was made an issue in
the governor race which resulted
in the election of Julius Meier.
He explains the amendment,
which provides for local power
districts, and goes on to say that
if action is taken under its pro
visions some additional legislation
will be necessary immediately. The
districts should be subject to some
regulation, especially in regard to
form of records and accounts, and
making of annual reports, he
thinks.
May Be Overemphasized
“It is possible to overestimate
1 the significance of the utility dis
trict movement,” he says. "Even
I sponsors of the movement in the
state of Washington argued, that
if such districts are legalized, the
power will be used but seldom but
will serve merely as a threat to
i private companies. In Oregon it
is maintained that the farmers and
small villages ought to have the
same privilege to go into the elec
tric business as that enjoyed for
many years by larger cities. If
the power now granted is used as
! rarely as larger cities use their
power, the new movement will not
prove as serious to private inter
j ests as they suppose.”

Fencing Tourney
Postponed Until
Week of March 2
Nine Swordsmen Entered
In Clashes; Close
Tilts Loom
The annual fencing tourney, or
iginally billed for next week, has
been postponed due to painting
operations in the gym. Coach War
ren Powell deemed it wise to can
cel the previous arrangement in
asmuch as practice has been han
dicapped by the removal of the
fencing classes to temporary quar
ters.
So far nine bladesmen have en
tered the tourney and Powell is
confident that two or three other
crack fencers will be added to the
list before the tourney rolls around
as well as several members of his
elementary class. The entrants
are: Irvin Hill, Dave Killion, Dick
Waggoner, Gordon Fisher, Sydney
Gevurtz, Leslie Whitehouse, Nor
ris Porter, Curtis Barnes, and Mil
lard Younger.
Waggoner, who also has the
honor of being individual north
west champion, may have some 1
difficulty in defending his univer
sity crown, according to Coach i
Powell. Whitehouse and Killion,
members of last year's squad, are j
nearly on a par with the blond ;
fencing streak and several of the I
new men are conceded an outside j
chance against him.
Lee Winetrout, who took second
place in the northwest meet last [
year, may enter the tourney, and
with his presence the competition ,
will be still keener. Winetrout dis
played a more airtight defense
than Waggoner in the tourney last!
year, parrying the strokes of all !
until he clashed with Waggoner in j
the finals. After a stiff resistance
his guard was finally broken |
through by a series of lightning j
offensive thrusts. Jim Whitman
and Fred Radke are other exper^
ienced swordsmen on whom the
coach still counts.

Students Practice
Stock Investment
(’lass Divided Into Groups
Of Brokers, Clients
What would you do if you got
$5,000 with the stipulation that it
be invested in the stock market?
If you want the chance in theory
enroll in the course in investment
offered by the business ad school,
and taught by Daniel D. Gage Jr.,
of that school.
As a part of their study of the
stock market and of brokerage of
fices, the investment class of 20
students has been divided into two
groups, one of brokers, the other
of clients. The clients have been
accredited with $5,000 each, which
they are to use in making margin
al investments in the stock mar
ket. It is up to the brokers to
charge their clients interest, com
missions, and government taxes,
and they are permitted to force
sale of any stocks and to regulate
the percentage of marginal pay
ments to be made. Regular brok
er's forms are being billed out, and
a minute record of each transac
tion kept.
“The experiment is not to create
interest in speculation, but rather
to point out by concrete example
the financial dangers for the aver
age investor in the stock market,"
Mr. Gage emphasized. “I believe
that at the end of the three weeks’
period in the majority of instances
the investor will have suffered
losses. This will show in the best
way just what such investments
mean for the usual investor.” I

which has been a landnl&rk on the
campus for almost 30 years, will
be filled with loam and seeded to
lawn grass.
The road was built before the
University was established and in
tersected 13th street near where
the library now stands. It was
gravelled by the University in 1904,
according to L. H. Johnson, comp
troller emeritus of the University.
It has been used as a path for
pedestrians only since about 1912.
