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.

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

"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

apple sale tomorrow and Thurs
day, January 25 and 26.
Apples are to be 10 cents

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.”

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

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.

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.

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

counters and completely bewil
dered their opponents. The two
players starring for Friendly were

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.
