VOLUME XXXIVUNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 1933 __Page 4
| Nobody’s
Business
By BRUCE HAMBY
f^ORVALLTS, Jan. 17 Early this
term an Oregon State student
told me ho wthe Beaver basket
Dan Drains were
endeavoring t o
build up Lanky
Ed Lewis with
frequent doses of
cod liver oil and
plenty of good
, Corvallis milk.
Remembering his
play during the
past two years I
wondered if it
would make
George Hibbard much difference.
Surely, I thought, he is bound to
be cracked by some husky oppon
ent before the season gets very
old.
Tonight I watched him play 45
minutes of the hardest, toughest
basketball imaginable against the
Washington State Cougars and
you have to hand it to him—he’3
so much improved in both playing
ability and stamina that you’d
never recognize his playing from
description. He still looks frail,
but his ‘‘old maidish” habits are
gone. He plays ball, takes his falls
with the rest, and comes back for
more. Without him, the Beavers
would be just an drdinary quintet;
with him as leader they are a dis
tinct threat to any five contem
plating winning the northern di
vision crown.
* * #
Don’t think for a minute, how
ever, that the Beavers have only
mediocre players to back Lewis.
George Hibbard, a former star
at Molalla high school, and a
sophomore this year, is a clever,
speedy forward. Teamed with
another flash, Skeet O'Connell,
they make an unusually fast pair
of forwards. O’Connell appar
ently was off his game last night
for he failed to do much offens
ively, although his defensive
play was good.
* # *
At the guard positions “Slats"
Gill has placed Everett Davis and
Ca'rl Lencliitsky, two husky six
footers who work in perfectly with
the Oregon State zone defense.
The Beavers do not appear to have
anything in the way of reserves,
Red MacDonald, guard shows pos
sibilities but is always garnering
fouls with his somewhat clumsy
floor work.
* * *
The Beavers will get another
test next week when the Wash
ington Huskies stop off at Cor
vallis after meeting Oregon here
at Eugene Friday and Saturday
nights. If Gill’s outfit can stop
the Huskies they may win the
Orangemen a conference crown,
something missing at that school
for almost as long as at Oregon.
* » *
“Who's going to get the football
coaching job over here," I asked
Bud Forrester, Barometer sports
editor tonight.
“It’s all between Lon Stiner and
Mike Pecarovich of Gonzaga,” ho
replied, “with Pecarovich on the
inside.”
* * *
Evidently the Beaver athletic
bosses are in the same opinion
SHE'S BACK
greeter than ever
A Clara Bow never before
revealed Given full scope to
display her dramatic genius,
lelainmg her vivid personality
And coming through with a
performance so sincere, so
forceful that it again places
her high among the screen's
great.

CORVALLIS, Jan. 17 Wash
ington State jumped back into a
tie for second place in the North
ern division standings by edging
out Oregon State 34 to 31 in a
wildly exciting overtime game
here tonight. The two quintets
were deadlocked at 28-all at the
end of the regular time.
The Cougars showed more fire
than they did last night when the
Beavers walked off with a 26-to
14 victory. Led by Rex Scott,
guard, and Capt. Huntly Gordon,
the Pullman team jumped into the
lead at the start of the game and
led at the half, 16 to 11.
Ken Wills, peppery Cougar
guard, put in one of his long field
goals at the start of the second
period to run the score up to 18
to 11. The Orange team started
a fiery rally at this point and
with the period half gone Lewis
pushed in a one-handed shot to tie
the count at 21-all.
Lead See-saws at Finish
For the remainder of the second
half the lead see-sawed back and
forth. Skeet O’Connell tossed in
a free throw and George Hibbard
a field goal to give the Beavers a
three-point, lead, but Gordon, Cross
and Johnny Rogers, sub-forward,
put the Cougars ahead 27 to 26
with only two minutes to play.
Here Lewis got in another of his
clever, one-handed tosses to put
the score at 28 to 27. With sec
onds left to play, Gordon, quite
calm amidst a deafening turmoil,
sank a free throw to knot the
count.
Lewis Tops Orange
Lewis, Orange leader, was out
standing for the Corvallis team,
leading the scoring with 13 points.
His floor play was exceptional, al
though Hibbard, former Mollala
high school star, played a game
almost as good.
Scott, Cross and Rogers were
the leaders of the Cougar offensive.
Scott, especially, put. on a finished
performance throughout the hard
fought game. Cross led the
Cougar scorers with 10 points, fol
lowed by Gordon with 9.
as Fred Shideler, United Press
correspondent at Corvallis.
“The students and alumni
want an export,” he said, "and
you know a coach is an expert
only away from home. Stiner
has been around here too long.”
* * *
It will be several weeks, proba
bly during spring term, when the
new Beaver coach is appointed,
according to Shideler. Reorgani
zation of the A. S. O. S. C. budget
remains undone and nothing can
be done until the moguls find out
how much money they will have to
pay the new mentor.
They Arrange Schedules for This Lad
George Musso, four-sport star of James Millikin university in
Illinois, may be the only athlete in the country who has a hand in
arranging his school’s sports program. The schedule makers see to
it that lie doesn’t have to omit anything from his repertoire. Musso
weighs 265 pounds and is 6 feet 3 inches tail.

Handballists Advance
By BEN EACK
The highlight of last night's
donut volley ball encounters was
Biff Neilsson's attempted pass to
a team mate which nearly
wrecked the gymnasium floor in
his attempt. Biff, one of the
Sigma Nu stars, lost his balance
and crashed to the floor on his
stomach. The Sigma Nu team
played brilliant ball to down Gam
ma hall by two games. A red
headed swatter playing for Gam
ma, going by the name of Freddie
Lees, scored nine points in suc
cession.
The Fiji team found the Phi
Sigma Kappa defense easy to
penetrate ' in the third and final
game of their series and won 2 to
1. The Friendly hall outfit found
very little trouble in downing Sig
ma Phi Epsilon by a score of 2 to
1, Sigma hall put up some tre
mendous resistance before they
finally succumbed to Phi Psi 2 to
1. The Yeomen found little
trouble in beating Sigma Pi Tau
2 to 0. In the final game the
Betas beat Chi Psi 2 to 0.
In the handball encounters Theta
Chi beat Zeta hall by a 2-to-l
score and International house fail
ed to show up so consequently
forfeited to Alpha Tau Omega.
Indian Mermen
Out After Crown
STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Jan.
17.--Headed by Ted Wiget, na
tional collegiate 440 yard cham
pion, Stanford will present a pow
erful and well-balanced swimming
team this year. The Indians, who
were Pacific coast intercollegiate
champions last season and were
nosed out by Michigan for the na
tional collegiate title, will be par
ticularly well fortified in the free
style races and the relay.
Because of an abundance of
good material, Wiget and other
stars will not be compelled to
swim so many races and will have
more opportunity to hang up rec
ord performances. The Indian sea
son opens here January 21, with
the annual interclass meet.
Commission Nominates
Nomination of officers and adop
tion of a constitution were taken
care of at the meeting of the
newly organized men's frosh com
mission yesterday. Bob Hall re
ported on freshman students whom
they might invite to the next
meeting. Officers will be elected
at the next meeting, Tuesday.

Cornell Coaches Stick Around Awhile

Because he coaches football, Gil Dobie perhaps is the best known
of Cornell’s mentors. But he's been there only 12 years and still is
just a tyro in the eyes of fellows like John Moakley and Howard Ort

IS TECHNOCRACY OPPOSED
TO ECONOMIC THEORY?
(Continued from Pope One)
as “professor.” Pretenders, dema
gogues, charlatans, mistaken zeal
ots, propagandists, and reaction
aries are “economists.” No mat
ter how scandalously the canons
of sound economics and common
sense are violated, there is no one
to unfrock the imposter.
In the modern, complex world,
where production is divided into
minute tasks, and where millions
of exchange transactions coordin
ate individuals into a working
mechanism, the need of a social
engineer to discover the laws
which govern the vast complex
machine may be readily seen.
Such an engineer would be an un
official observer, r.ot a dictator.
He holds no commission from the
state, and no authority from the
social organization. No matter
whether the technician who anal
yzes these processes calls himself
an engineer, a technocrat, or an
economist, the function is that of
the economist. When students, in
general, agree upon an analysis
and a conclusion, orthodoxy may
be said to exist.
Economists are startled at the
assumption that orthodoxy must
always reject the new. All through
history the economist, or his pro
totype, have adapted their analy
sis to innovations, some of Biem
so sweeping that politics, religion,
education, and even life itself have
been revolutionized. No workable
economic proposal is too radical to
be brought within the embrace of
orthodoxy, because orthodoxy is a
movable, variable concept which
keeps pace with social evolution.
Thousands of radical proposals
have been opposed and rejected, it
is true, through the activities of
orthodox economists, not because
i In your OLD home you can
add NEW comfort . . . save fuel
If your house was built be
' fore modern insulation was
available, it can be easily
1 made to give new comfort
and save considerable fuel.
It is through the roof that
most heat is lost. By apply
ing a thick warm blanket of
Balsam-Wool to the attic
floor or between the roof
rafters needless heat loss is
prevented.
You will find a surprising
saving in fuel; the house will
be easier to heat in the cold
est weather; the upstairs
rooms will be more comfort
able during hot summer days
and nights.
See us about it today.

the ideas were new, nor because
existing doctrines were sacred, but
because of the incompatibility of
the proposals to the rest of the
economic* mechanism.
Is orthodox economics opposed
to technocracy? Up to the pres
ent the organization which calls
itself technocracy has spoken only
in generalities. Some of the gen
eralities seem to indicate a lack
of knowledge of what the econo
mist believes to be the simple, ba
sic principles underlying modern
economic society. Technocracy’s
scathing criticism of abuses in the
modern system are scarcely less
violent than those of many econo
mists who classify themselves - as
orthodox. In schools of medicine,
differences may appear when it is
being ascertained that tAe patient
is ill and needs treatment. Differ
, ences appear when diagnosis and
; treatment are undertaken. When
technocracy passes from the gen
j eral to the specific, as it must do
1 if its suggestions are to have any
value whatever, there will be time
enough to judge whether its ad
herents have taken into account
the basic economic laws which the
: orthodox economist believes exist.
| Some of the statements of tech
; nocracy’s spokesmen seem de
I designed to raise the ire of ortho
j do.x economists, but it is not clear,
from those statements, or other
wise, that fundamental differences
exist. The willingness of the new
cult to challenge others in advance
i of definite proposals of its own is
! not particularly auspicious.

REPORTERS FIND FIVE
DAY PAPER IS WANTED
(Continued from Page One)
“Frankly, I feel that the Emerald
has raised a great deal of unneces
sary smoke in this curtailment
problem. Like too many of the
rest of us, it has preached econ
omy and the necessity of facing
facts until the problem comes to
the front door and knocks and we
are afraid to let it in. There is no
use haggling over technicalities. A
cut is a cut and we may as well
face the music.”
“I’m in favor of a five-day
Emerald in fairness to journalism
students and the student body in
general,” said Lynne Downs, first
year law major.
“I think we should have a five
day paper if we pay for it,” was
the statement made by Brian
Heath, sophomore in education.
“In order to retain its identity
with other university daily news
papers, we should have a five-day
Emerald,” said Dorothy Steele,
senior in English.
Another Wants Cut
Betty Henry, junior in journal
ism: “I think that the Emerald
could be cut to four days. It
would be a good way to cut ex
penses. There isn’t enough real
news to demand five issues a
week.”
Jeanette Turner, sophomore in
music: “I think that it is very
necessary to have a campus calen
dar at least five days a week. If
the paper were put on a four-day
basis there 'would be a number of
important announcements which
the students would miss. Other
wise, I do not see much difference.
I should prefer a seven-column,
five-days-a-week paper to a four
day paper.”
William Leede, junior in pre
medics: “Personally, I do not par
ticularly care about it. Taking it
from the financial standpoint, four
days would be desirable; taking it
from the standpoint of enjoyment,
I believe that we should have it
five times a week.”
“I’m in favor of a five-day
paper. Something to read at Sat
urday morning classes,” stated
Joan Cox, sophomore in English.
“If we have to cut expenses,
amend the constitution and have a
four-day paper,” said Kenneth
Proctor, third-year law student.
