By mistake the ar ticle was cut when the pressmen discovered the sports copy was too heavy. Here's the story. It seems Picked was being in structed in some fancy one-handed shots by another member of the Henry team at a practice session. Picked watched his volunteer in structor solemnly for a short while, then picked up the bad, bounced it on the floor, and drop kicked it through the net. He then bounced it through from the floor and for his third shot tossed the ball high above the rafters in the ceiling. The ball didn’t touch the rim as it swished the net. * * * When I first noticed the above story about Picked I rewrote it only for the freakiness of the shots, never thinking that any one here might know of him. But yesterday I received a note from Dean J. R. Jewell of Ihe school of education stating he would like to hear the story. Before coming to Oregon, Dean Jewell lived across the street from the Pickells. “Long Tom,” he tells me, isn’t the only all American in the family, for his ■ brother, Elbert, also was given all-American mention while at Arkansas. Another was chosen on all-Southwest teams and a still younger brother is now on the freshman team at the Uni versity of Arkansas. * # * While we’re clearing up odd3 and ends, here’s the remainder and most important part of the story about Mikulak winning ten (10) dollars on the way to Louisi ana. Mik wasn’t taking many chances when he bet the U. C. L. A. player that Oregon has a faster football player than the Uclans. Paul Starr ran for Oregon and won by 20 feet. U. O.

Jim Watts Added to Injured List With Bruised Knee -* 1 Guard To Be Out For Time Says Mentor Stevens, Kunkle Not Likely To Play Against Huskies U. O. in Bud Way as High-Scoring Champions Head to Eugene For Conference Games By BILL EBERHART When Bill Reinhart orders knee guards from now on he's going to buy them by the gross. At pres ent he is minus five members of the regular 10 man squad due to injured knees. The latest addi tion to the “bad knee” brigade was Jim Watts,' letterman guard, who injured his knee in practice Tuesday nignt Jim Watts atMj wjn be out of the series with Washington. Along with Watts are Kerm Stevens and Ed Kunkle, who, ac cording to Bill Reinhart, will not get in either of the games this week-end. Bob Miller and Bill Berg both have been troubled with their leg joints all season. The loss of Watts leaves the Webfoots in an even worse hole than they have been in so far this year. Only Roberts, Olinger and Robertson remain in first class shape, and both Roberts and Rob ertson are getting over colds. Stevens, Kunkle Missed Reinhart stated last night that he would be able to determine to night if either Stevens or Kunkle will be able to play. Stevens, two year letterman, will be missed for his fighting offensive playing, while Kunkle’s six feet four in ches of height will be needed badly against the high scoring Huskies. Leading the invading Huskies is Johnny Fuller, all-coast forward and high scorer in the double slaughter of Idaho last week. Ful ler will be teamed with the dead eye Harold Lee at forward. Pete Antoncich, six foot five inch cen ter, is filling the pivot post. Last year Antoncich proved a flop due to his awkwardness, but reports from Seattle indicate that he has improved mightily this year. The guard berths are held by two veterans, Joe Weber and Bob Heaman. In case Lee is kept out of the lineup, Jack Hanover will start at forward. Lee returned to school only this term and is not yet in tip-top shape. Other mem bers of the Husky squad making the trip will be Mark Antoncich, Virg Perry, Ed Ostling, and either Bob Galer, Dick Cook, or Don Wyman. They will arrive in Eu gene Friday. OLYMPIC HERO TO WITH DRAW FROM ATHLETICS (Continued from Page One) the country honored Hill as one of the greatest of amateur athletes by placing him third from the top in their poll to select the athlete “who had done most for the ad vancement of sportsmanship in amateur competition during the year of 1932." Hill's retirement will probably not mean that he will give up run ning entirely. Now he will confine his activities to exhibitions and practice, “just for the sport of it," to use the words of Colonel Bill Hayward, veteran University track coach and tutor of Hill throughout his college career and later. When contacted last night Hay ward said that the news of his star pupil's retirement from fur ther competition was not a sur prise to him. He had received sev eral letters from Hill on the sub ject, stating that it was about time he (Hill) got down to work since he thought his highest ambi tions in the field of athletics had been realized. NO BALL, IS VERDICT OF SCABBARD AND BLADE (Continued from Pe.ge One) have been made for holding a for mal affair for members and pledg es of the military honorary and army officers in Eugene. Among possibilities considered by the organization were: a ball supported by subscription of the : members and a few invited guests: | joining with reserve and national j guard officers of Eugene in giving j a ball; giving an open affair with i the number of tickets limited. It evas decided that all of these would place too much of a burden on the members in meeting the expenses jf music, hall and decorations.

' f My Greatest Thrill in Athletics j By JOHNNY KITZMILLER (As told In Med Simpson) rpHIS, dear public, is the story of “■my greatest thrill! Realizing the interest that you have shown in the many in t terviews given by me to the press L of the nation, I 'hasten to say L that the greatest — absolutely the most unique — thrill that I have ever experienced in all my experi ence in athletics was the one I re ceived when Bill Reinhart and I ' *' beat Tom Stod Johnny dard and Bob Kitzmiller Officer for the handball championship of the Igloo! For many months Reinhart and myself had been battling vainly against this great team of hand ballers, and it took long and ar duous hours of practice before we could accomplish our purpose. When finally the great day ar rived for our big challenge match, we were in the finest mettle imag inable. Our psychological setup was just right, for we hajl been repeatedly told that "we didn’t have a chance.” The championship was to be de cided in two out of three games. (Needless to say, we won two.) The first game was a long and bit terly contested match of shill and wits, but my wonderful pick-up shot off the back wall finally saved the day, and we won—21-19. In the second game we fared rather badly—we put up a fine battle nevertheless — and succumbed 21 to 3. The final game started, and we—determined not to go down to bitter defeat again—played such a hard, clean game that Officer and Stoddard were powerless against us. The score was 22 to 20. And that, dear public, is how I (paired with Bill Reinhart) beat Bob' dfficer and Tom Stoddard for the championship of the Igloo. Ahem! Johnny Kitzmiller, one of Ore gon's greatest gridiron heroes, hailed from Harrisburg, Pennsyl vania, where he was a star in base ball, basketball, and football. At Oregon he played two years under "Cap” McEwan and finished his varsity career as captain of the Webfoots under the great “Doc” Spears. "KHz” was selected for all-coast on virtually every selec tion made. He captained the West team in the annual Snriner East West game on New Year's day, 1931. Johnny played one season of professional football with the New York Giants club, and was regard ed as one of the best halfbacks in professional ranks. Last fall he was assistant coach under Prink Callison, having charge of the backfield. Smith Vi ill Broadcast Views on Philippines Dr. Warren D. Smith of the geol ogy department has expressed himself as of the opinion that the senate’s action in freeing the Fili pinos, over the president’s veto, is ‘‘a blunder of the first magnitude." This evening at 7:15, Dr. Smith will present the arguments in sup port of his conviction on the first Half of a 30-minute program spon sored by the Emerald-of-the-Air. Tomorrow evening at the same time Dr. Smith will deliver the se quel. Having spent 12 years in the islands, and written a book on the ‘‘Geology and Mineral Re sources of the Philippines,” Dr. Smith is considered to be an au thority on the subject.

S. V. W. Struggles To Avert Possible Bankruptey SEATTLE, Wash., Jan. 18 — (Special) Sweeping adjustment adjustment of Washington’s physi cal education, intramural sports and intercollegiate athletic pro grams and centralization of the three under the athletic director were indicated this week by Presi dent M. Lyle Spencer as probable results of adoption of faculty con trol over the associated students. Transfer to the administration of responsibility for the A. S. U. W. organization was recommended by Dr. Spencer this week in his report to the board of regents. Faculty Control Eyed “Intercollegiate and intramural sports are educational and should be under faculty direction,” he stated. “All others, which are not educational in nature, belong to the students.” “Activities like the Varsity Ball, the A. W. S., the Junior Prom, and other functions which belong sole ly to the students should be under complete student control,” Dr. Spencer said. “They will be if the proposed plan is adopted.” Any possibility of faculty or al umni domination, he explained, will be eliminated under the pro posed plan. “I am attempting to turn over student activities to stu dents and educational activities to the faculty.” The graduate manager's office would be retained under the new system, Dr. Spencer said, as pro motion and handling of athletic events would still be necessary. To avert bankruptcy of the A. S. U. W-. the same report recom mended, it will be necessary for the faculty to assume control of the corporation, and purchase out standing bonds through diversion of $200,000 from University rent als derived from city property. Brotherly Love In This Grid Tilt _ MOORESVILLE, N. C„ Jan. 18. (AP>—You have heard of brothers on the same football team or on opposing elevens, but how about i brother referees sharing a job in the same game ? And they the rival coaches, too! C. Y. Hood is Mooresville coach. His brother, Tom Hood, is the Mount Ulla mentor. There’s great rivalry between the two schools, and as time approached for their annual duel it was found that no arrangements had been made for a referee. A desperate search failed to lo cate an official. So the brothers agreed to take turns refereeing. ! The game ended in a scoreless tie. And everybody was satisfied— at least with the officials. Grid Champions Use But Six Plays FOR TCOLLINS, Colo., Jan 17. —(AP)—The Fort Collins high school football team, which won the Colorado interscholastic title for the third consecutive year this’ season, used only six different plays.

COLONIAL — “Movie Crazy,” starring Harold Lloyd. Show ing till Saturday. By RALPH MASON Red Head Returns After a prolonged absence from the screen, the incomparable red head, Clara Bow, returns in what is described as a smashing hit en titled “Call Her Savage.” Here tofore Miss Bow has played all sort of roles, good, bad, and de cidedly worse, but this time, be lieve it or not, she is a mother! Don’t let this worry you too much, for the news is that she plays a thoroughly emotional role. The story has all the good and old elements of a movie play wright’s conception of a perfect romance to all appearances. First there is the home life. Miss Bow’s dad is capable of running a rail road but he can't manage his daughter. She leaves home and gets “impulsively” married. Aw heck, you know the rest as well as we do. Supporting Clara are Thelma Todd, Estelle Taylor, Gilbert Rol and and a few other characters who try unsuccessfully to compete with her. “Call Her Savage” opens at the McDonald today for a three-day run. * * * “Movie Crazy” Simple faced, bespectacled Har old Lloyd is with us again, this time in “Movie Crazy,” which is showing at the Colonial for the re mainder of this week. Said to be his best vehicle since the immortal “Freshman,” “Movie Crazy” contains all the comedy making elements of the famous Lloyd formula. One distinct change in the modus operandi (two-bits please) in this film is that Lloyd makes the gags in stead of the gags making him. There are so many gags that you feel like going ga-ga-. Iz&zmi now Tj Now 25c Now 25c 1 "DYNAMITE" Thats what they called her... beauteous... primi tive... impetuous...waitirg to be tamed. .CLARA BOW The incandescent flame cf her personality undi YEARLINGS BEAT FRUIT GROWERS BY SINGLE POINT Rogers’ Squad Looks Good Against Independent Five, Winning By 18-17 Score By JACK CHINNOCK The freshman basketeers upset the Eugene Fruit Growers yester day in a short but fast game, 18 to 17. A last minute rally by the Growers almost turned the tables, and the missing of an easy shot by Ingrahm Kjosness with only seconds to go decided the final outcome. • The frosh broke into the scoring column in the first minute of the game, when Pete Buck got loose under the basket and pushed in a cripple. A minute later Stew Mil ligan scored. The independent team got or ganized, and baskets by Thom and Kjosness put them in the lead. The lead alternated between the two teams, till about five minutes before half time, when Buck went on a scoring spree to ring up three baskets, putting the frosh ahead 16 to 9 at the half. The second half, which was cut down to only eight minutes, was all in favor of the Growers. Glen Sanford scored early in the half, but that ended the yearling scor ing. With only about three min utes to play, Jacobs ran wild to score four baskets, cutting the freshman lead down to one point. Kjosness had a shot from under the basket, but he missed it, giv ing the frosh the decision, for there wasn’t enough time for an other try. Outstanding for the yearlings was Buck, who scored 12 of hi3 team’s total of 18 points. Har combe and Milligan were the pil lars of defense, breaking up plays and taking the ball off the back board whenever the Growers missed. Rogers’ team plays St. Mary’s in a preliminary game Fri day night, and hopes to get re venge for the defeat handed them by the Saints earlier in the year. | Score: Frosh (18) (17) Fruit Growers Stroble.F.
