VOLUME XXXIV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, TUESDAY, JANUARY 24, 1933 Page 4 Nobody’s Business By BRUCE HAMBY X)RVALLrS, Jan. 23 (Special) * - Here's something to re E«1 Lewis Oregon State captain and center, can hold out the re mainder of this basketball sea son without serious injury, the Beavers are headed for a long - awaited northern divi sion hoop crown. And that is no wild The Orangemen gave sufficient warning tonight as they outplayed and outscored the powerful Wash ington Huskies to win, 42 to 34, The Beavers won by right of playing smarter and more calcu lating basketball. There was no haste nor excitement about the Staters’ attack. They played hard and followed the ball like leeches. They were out to win and they did -by a convincing margin. Lewis showed himself to be the class of the northern division to night. His all-around playing has not been surpassed either this season or last. By his nine bas kets he ran his total scoring for seven games this year to 85 points. If ever a player is de stined to make all-coast, Lewis is the one. Slats Gill is taking no chances on having Lewis injured if he can possibly help it. The Beaver cen ter played tonight with large pads on both elbows. Last year Lewis ended the season wearing bon dages on arms and legs so many bandages, in fact, that Doc Spears dubbed him "Turkey” referring to the loose bandages as feathers. * * * The injury of Johnny Fuller and Harold Lee cannot be overlooked in taking stock of tonight’s game. Fuller suffered a nasty injury to his hand in the final game at Eugene Saturday night and played with a bulky bandage, which un doubtedly hampered his shooting. Lee, according to reports, nearly broke his toe when getting out of bed this morning in Eugene prior to coming here. While this did not stop his shooting, he was slowed up and displayed none of his wob bly but clever dribbling. Lee checked Lewis on the defense and the Beaver captain’s total shows that something was wrong. There is nothing new on the Oregon State coaching situation. Mike Percarovieh and Lon Stiner still are the leading candidates. Speculation has died down some what on the campus as everyone figures nothing will be done for several weeks. Pecarovich is still the favorite with most students, but Stiner has a strong following among the football players them selves. * * * If Pecarovich is chosen for the position and accepts it seems to me as though he were stepping into un unnecessary mess. At present he is sitting on top with Gonzaga becoming the St. Mary’s of the Northwest. The Spokane school has a tine schedule lined up lor 1933 and should clean up financially. In addition, the Bull dog school has no conference grade rules and little supervision on entrance. Their schedule for the coming season is far superior to that of Oregon State and the material at Spokane, at least from reports, is just as encouraging. Why Pecarovich should wish to leave that set-up is beyond me.

ALADDIN GIFT SHOP 41 West 10th St. iWebfbots Off j For Invasion Of Northland Reinhart's Squad Looking Better in Workouts Oregon Five Shows Possibilities I is Second (Janie With Huskies Hut Lose 4t to 31 By BILL EBERIIART A determined University of Ore gon basketball team proved its in tention of cut ting' a definite swath in confer ence circles when it was within four points of the league - leading Huskies with on ly two minutes to play Saturday night, only two minutes to play Saturday night, Hermit stcvens only to witness a final rally by Washington that put the final score up to 44 to 34. It was only late in the game that Hec Edmundson’s team be gan to forge ahead of the tenac ious Webfoots. The score was tied 8-all and 11-all in the first half and Oregon was only five points behind at the half, 22 to 17. Lee .Sinks ’Em Harold Lee, lanky Washington forward, personally dropped in six field goals from points near cen ter court that thrilled the specta tors. The apparent ease with which he made his shots was a pleasure to watch, even though it meant disaster for the Webfoots. Bill Reinhart assigned to Hank Simons the task of holding John ny Fuller’s scoring down after he had made 17 points Friday night. Hank did a wonderful job and held him to a mere two field goals. Johnny made nine points but five of them were free throws. Besides his great defensive work, Hank led his team's scoring with eight points, all field goals. Jim Watts recovered from his knee injury and played almost the entire game, turning in an excel lent showing. Cap Roberts, Ste vens, and Olinger did more than their share, but nothing could have stopped those soaring long shots of the Huskies. Sons Practice Here After a short workout yesterday afternoon, the Webfoot squad boarded a northbound Southern Pacific train that will carry them to a two-game series against Ida ho in Moscow tonight and Wed nesday and against Washington State in Pullman Friday and Sat urday. Only after a long workout Sun day against Southern Oregon nor mal, en route from Monmouth to Ashland, and DeNeffe's, and a short practice yesterday afternoon, did Reinhart know who would compose his traveling squad. Those finally selected were Cap Roberts, Kermit Stevens, Gib Olinger, Jim Watts, Jack Robertson, Hank Si mons, Red Rotenberg, Ed Kunkle, Bob Miller, Ralph Terjeson, and Bill Berg. Oregon's chances against Idaho are better than against any other conference team, the Vandals' de feat of Washington State notwith standing. The fact that favors Oregon is the respective perform ances against Washington. Idaho was overwhelmingly defeated in Seattle, while Oregon gave the Huskies plenty to think about last week-end. Anything may happen in Pull man. The Cougars’ showing in Moscow proves that they can be beat, and Bill Reinhart is out to make that proof a reality. The Webfoots return to Eugene next Sunday to begin preparations for Oregon State a week later. Y. W. C. A. Organized For Big Sale Tomorrow "An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” That will be the call of the Frosh commission of the Y. W. C. A. during their candied (taf fy or caramel, take your choice) apple sale tomorrow and Thurs day, January 25 and 26. Apples are to be 10 cents each, juicy, and guaranteed to satisfy that “sweet tooth” as well as forestall doctor bibs (look out, dispensary, business is on the wane) according to Helen Wright, in charge of the apple drive. The apples are to be sold in fraternity houses at noon to morrow, and in women's living organizations all day. But, states the Frosh commission representatives, "Don't worry if you don’t get enough Wednes day, for more candied apples will be sold all day Thursday at a stand in front of the Co-op.” Off to Meet the Vandals I Three newcomers on Bill Reinhart’s Webfoot basketball squad who are expected to see action against Idaho tonight and tomorrow at Moscow. They are Boh Miller, guard; Bill Berg, forward; and Hank Simons, guard. All are sophomores. The other member of this quar tette is “Red” Rotenberg, diminutive forward. Freshmen Score Three Victories But Look Ragged Yearling Tenm Has Good Week Turning Back Saints and Independents Although they won three and lost no games last week, the Ore gon freshmen looked none too sprightly in doing so. They have a long way to go before they can call themselves a basketball team. There has been some improve ment, but last week's three victor ies showed a need for better team play. University high was the first victim, falling before a barrage of yearling baskets, 54 to 28. The preppers were not able to cope with the bigger lads, and it turned into a slaughter before the game was many minutes old. The yearlings staged a big up set against the Eugene Fruit Growers association team on Wed nesday. The frosh started off with a fast breaking offense that the Growers found impossible to stop, taking a lead of 16 to 9 at the half. The Growers rallied in the second canto, but fell short by one point, 18 to 17, when the game ended. Pete Buck starred for the frosh in this game, mak ing 12 points. A strong defense on the part of the frosh, with Mil ligan and Harcombe carrying the burden, coupled with Buck's offen sive work, gave the yearlings the final verdict. A victory over the Saints on Friday night in a revenge game, 34 to 20, ended the week for the frosh. The game was listlessly played, but the frosh found it easy to find the hoop. Harcombe led the scorers with 10 points. James, who substituted for Buck, played some good ball. Coach Rogers hasn't scheduled any games as yet for this week, contenting himself with drilling his charges on the fundamentals, which they have a tendency to forget at times. There is a chance that tlie freshmen may take on an independent team in a scrimmage game later in the week, but it de pends a lot on how they show in the next couple of practice ses sions. So far this year the frosh have won three and lost three. Record: Frosh 21 St. Mary's 28 Frosh 19 Eugene High 21 Frosh 24 Yeomen 39 Frosh 54 Univ. High 2S Frosh 18 ... E. F. G. A. 17 Frosh 34 .

BEAVERS DOWN HUSKY FIVE TO TUNE OF 42-34 (Continued from Page One) seconds by staging a gallant but futile rally. Galer and Weber broke through the Beaver defense, a little dis organized without Lewis, and ran up 11 points while the Beavers were content with stalling when they did get the ball. Weber ssftik a long one from back of the ^en ter line as the gun sounded. Lewis Is Whole Show “As goes Lewis, so go the Bea vers,” is the best manner in which to describe the play "of the Staters. Lewis sets up plays, directs the defense, and does most of the shooting. When he was taken out of the game late in the second period tonight the Beavers seemed unable to make any headway at all. Johnny Fuller, Husky ace, was handicapped by an injured hand and took only a few shots. Lee was held in check and only man aged to loop in two of his long ones. Besides Lewis, O'Connell was easily the outstanding player for the victors. His speed and ball-hawking were a great aid to the Beaver performance. The two teams meet again to morrow' night at 7:30.

CAMPUS SHOE REPAIR Hill Selected For All-Star Track Squad ■ Ferris Pirks Oregon Star For 5,000 Meter Race Tolun, Haling-, McCluskey, Sexton Among Those Honored in Annual Ratings NEW YORK, Jan. ?3—(Special) Ralph Hill, former University of Oregon track star and hero of the Olympic games, was named as the country’s best in the 5,000-meter run in the annual All-American track and field selections made by Daniel J. Ferris, secretary-treas urer of the Amateur Athletic Un ion, here today. Hill, who but recently turned in his spikes for the more serious business of earning a living, was given the distinction of All-Ameri can selection because of his won derful showing against Lauri Leh tinen, Finnish champion, in the 5,000-meter event in the Olympic Games last summer. Hill finished second to the Finn, declining to protest an evident foul commit ted by Lehtinen in the final stretch. He is credited with the Olympic mark set in this race along with Lehtinen. Twenty-seven events were in cluded in the selections of Ferris, including all of the recognized forms of track and field competi tion. Three athletes received the distinction cf being named for two events. This trio was composed of Eddie Tolan, in the sprints, George Saling, in the hurdles, and Joe McCluskey, in the cross country and steeple chase. Big Leo Sexton led the parade with three places. Ferris selected his team both for the metric and yard distances, the first time he has used the metric system in the annual ratings. FOUR OREGON MEN ATTEND LEAGUE MEET (Continued from Ptfpc One) Yosuke Matsuoka, who graduated in 1900 with a bachelor degree in law, and since that time has be come the Japanese representative to the League of Nations.

The fourth member of the group is Arno Dosch-Fleurot, another Oregonian, who has lectured at the University of Oregon, and who is now employed as a foreign news paper correspondent. ISLAND FREEDOM TO BE DISCUSSED AT FORUM (Continued from Pope One) two addresses on special Emerald of-the-Air programs, in which he argued that it is not wise to sevet connections between the United States and the Philippine islands at the present time. An open letter opposing Dr Smith's views was printed in the Emerald by Florendo Mangavil, a native of the islands who is pre paring his master's degree on this subject here at the University Then, a statement in support ol President Hoover's action in veto ing the bill by Dr. Henry Sheldon of the social science department added further to the interest of the controversy.

By BEN BACK A Phi Delt team which im proved as it went along was the hit of yesterday’s donut volleyball encounters which were all very one-3ided with the exception of this one game. The Phi Delt sex tet, by the way, lost the first game by a big margin in their match with Friendly hall, but came back in the next two en counters and completely bewil dered their opponents. The two players starring for Friendly were Joe Saslavsky and Bill Catlow, Sigma Delta Psi Frolics in Snow Near Lost Creek National Honorary Has Big Time As Guest of Russell Cutler; Skiing Is Feature Members of Sigma Delta Psi. I national athletic honorary, were treated to an outing at Lost Creek ranch on the McKenzie river high way Sunday, by Russell Cutler, head of the Oregon chapter. Skiing and other winter sports were means of diversion in the men engaged. A mammoth snow ball fight was a feature, and two men got in the way of some fast ones the marks of which are very much in evidence as late as today. Men who made the trip were: McCoy, Sherman, G reenough, Bolds, Lafferty, Knollin, and Cut ler. who were a dangerous combina tion. For the Phi Delts, Martin was outstanding. The other thriller on yesterday's program was between Sigma Pi Tau and Phi Sigma Kappa, which the Phi Sigs captured after a see saw battle. The star player for Phi Sigma Kappa was Bill Kid well, who saved many shots by his clever play. For Sigma Pi Tau, Schenk, Hegdahl, and Dawsett played good ball .although on the /losing side. Gamma hall’s team failed to make an appearance, so conse quently forfeited to the boys from Theta Chi. In the other match of the night the Kappa Sigs took two games from Phi Psi. In this game Johnnie Lundin, Phi Psi player, was the star. ■ rnmmm twi 1 ■ —n—■'tmmrA 4 4 Eugene's Own Store 9 9 McMorran & Washburne MERCHANDISE OF MERIT ONLY -PHONE 2700— ‘Bass’ Sport Oxfords Saddle pattern — spring heel with Duplex rubber soles and heels —• white- pigskin with black saddle white elk with brown saddle — or smoked elk with brown saddle.
