Nobody’s
Business
By BRUCE HAMBY
/"OREGON'S 1933 football players
are going to run into some
active voun<r men in their pursuit
Ui Lilt X QL.I11L.
! coast conference
c h a m p io nship.
Probably the
most active of
these is Monsieur
Homer Griffith,
with whom the
Webfoots struck
up a slight ac
quaintance last
season. Having
Tiny Thornhill been introduced
to Homer, it is likely that they
will get along splendidly on their
second meeting.
Griffith isn't the only Trojan
veteran with whom the Webfoots
will meet next year. In fact it will
be just one big happy reunion, for
all but three of the 1932 U. S. C.
regulars will be back for another
season of pigskin profiteering for
clear old Troy. The two tackles,
Ernie Smith and Capt. Tay Brown,
have finished. So has Ray Spar
ling, the pass-grabbing end.
* * *
It really is a pity when you
think of poor Howard Jones
trying to win a'Coast title with
such material as Griffith, "Cot
ton” Warburton, Cal Clemens,
Bob Getz, Gordon Clark and
Johnny Morrison in the back
field, and Ford (Flivver) Pal
mer, Stevens, Youel, Bescos,
and Rosenberg in the line, not
to mention a new tackle, 225
pound George Harper, to re
place Smith.
* * *
Yes, and Southern California is
not the only place where the Ore
gon invasion is going to resemble
old home week. At Seattle the
biggest loss is most likely to be
Irish Jimmy Phelan. According to
rumor, Hec Edmundson, Husky
basketball coach, stated' that Phe
lan had written that he would
sign at the University of Chicago
within a month. Other missing
members of the 1933 Purple eleven
are Dave Nisbet, all-American
end; Capt. Bill O'Brien, tackle;
Johnny Cherberg, brainy quarter
back, and Colin Howard, center.
* * *
But look at the powerhouse in
the backfield where four young
gentlemen by the names of Art
Ahonen, Byrl Bufkin, Matt
Muczynski and Paul Sulkosky
will hold forth. All were sopho
mores this past season. In the
line Fat Isaacson, Joe Wiatruk,
Neg Englund and Ray Finn, cen
ter, and back. Oregon meets the
, Huskies in its first conference
game. Well, there’s nofhing like
getting over a tough hurdle
without delay.
* * *
California takes quite a loss this
year. Gone are Hank Schaldach,
Gus Castro and Dick Tozer. The
leading backfield prospect is Ar
leigh Williams, speedy halfback.
^Bill Ingram is going to have to
work hard to build a team that
will turn in a record as good as
the 1932 outfit did, which did none
too well, at that.
* * *
Stanford, under a new coach
next year in the person of Tiny
Thornhill, will at least have
more than enough backfield
material. Leading the parade of
ball-carriers is Bob Sims, regu
lar halfback during the past
season. Bill Baker is also back
from the 1932 squad. And from
the undefeated freshman team
come Bobby Grayson, Frankie
Alustuzia, and Tommy Hamil
ton, all sure of places on the
1933 Indian eleven.
♦ * *
Washington Slate loses some
good players, but never think Hol
lingbery won't have a strong elev
en. He always has. George San
der, the all-American triple-threat
back is gone, along with Johnny
Eubanks, the gotil-kicklug special
ist, and Walter Camp, a tackle. Ol
lie Arbelbide. the sensational half
back, and George Theodoratus,
who plays either fullback or tack
le, will top the list of 1933 per
formers.
* • *
Whoever takes over the coach
ing reins at Oregon State is go
ing to have plenty of alumni pic
tures at which to gaze and sigh.
Hal Moe, the great blocking
back; Keith Davis, punting end;
E. Davis, the other wingman;
Curly Miller, tackle; Ade
Schwammel, tackle, and Willis
Danforth, center, are gone from
the Corvallis football paradise.

By BEN BACK
All the excitement anyone
would care to have in the short
space of less than a half-hour was
furnished in a volleyball contest
between the Phi Delts and Sigma
Phi Epsilon in last night's donut
frays. These two teams played
through three of the hardest tilts
seen in the intrartiurals this year.
The Phi Delts took the deciding
game but not until they had earned
it. Sigma Phi Epsilon put up a
courageous stand during the con
cluding minutes of play.
Gamma hall and Kappa Sigma
put up an exciting contest until
the final minutes of this contest
when the Gamma boys somehow
got their signals crossed and con
tinually kept running into each
other. Kappa Sig worked their
“killer” play to a perfection
against the hall boys. However,
the Gamma six also scored a con
siderable number of points and
would have won one game at least
had not their defense cracked at
the criicial point. Hakanson and
Bobbitt starred for the Kappa
Sigs while Lees and Kolkowski
were the best Gamma hall sharp
shooters.
i' ft in
La Casa Filipina entered the win
column yesterday by virtue of
their victory over the "smart”
boys from Sigma hall. Sigma hall
could not get started and the
smaller, dusky-skinned stars found
very little to hinder them from
taking both games of the series.
La Casa has a very smooth work
ing combination which should
prove to be a real threat in future
games.
The Fijl-Sigma Pi Tau encoun
ter was also fought on even terms
j until the closing minutes of play.
In this game Morehouse, Fiji, be
wildered the S.P.T. boys with some
fancy shots. Dawsett, of Sigma
| Pi Tau, was the biggest threat of
his team.
Yeomen Advance
The strong Yeoman outfit found
very little trouble in defeating Phi
Sigma Kappa, who tried hard but
succumbed to superior passing and
all-around floor work.
Theta Chi took a forfeit from
Chi Psi who did not have enough
players to start the contest.
Two other teams of handball
players won their places in the
semi-final fracket. These two
teams, Kappa Sigma and A. T. O.,
meet today. The Phi Delta and the
Yeomen are also scheduled to meet
each other today.
SPANISH OFFICIALS DRAW
PRAISE FROM PROFESSOR
(ContinuedJrom Pane One)
"Although Alfonso had sympa
thy and tact, and was quite a lib
eral during his reign, he will never
come back to rule in this day and
age."
On April 14, 1931, the republic
was in triumphant and peaceful
possession of office, and several
ity, has been divided among the
farmers.
All church property belongs to
the state, but religious freedom is
still permitted, while no property
is allowed to be carried out of the
country. In order to insure democ
racy in Spain, no letter is de
livered if it is addressed with a
title of nobility.
“Is freedom of speech and press
permitted ?”
"Yes, the republic restricts no
one from saying or writing what'
he likes, while in the days of the
monarchy, all papers were cen
sured or banned and during some
political stir groups of people were
not allowed to talk on the street.”
Miss Thompson spent a number
of years in Spain, and traveled a
good deal about the country.
While there she taught at the In
ternational institute in Madrid.
Another Year for Him
Homer Griffith, 187-pound triple-threat quarterback of Southern
California’s national football champions, who returns flits year to lead
the warriors of Troy for another season on the gridiron. Leading
scorer of the Pacific Coast conference, Griffith is rated with Ituss
Saunders, Marshal Duffield, Morton Kaer and other great heroes of
the Trojan wars. He was a thorn in Oregon’s side this year. He
smashed nine yards through tackle for U. S. C.’s first touchdown four
minutes after the start of the game. Against Pittsburgh, he was even
more formidable. After the 85-to-0 massacre. Coach Sutherland of
Pitt said he thought Griffith was the best back on the field.

Eddie Tolan
Never To Run
Sprints Again
Olympic Star Turns Spikes
In To Hold Job
Career of Earning a Living Much
More Important to Negro
Star Than Cinder Fame
DETROIT, Jan. 25.—(Special) —
No longer will the stumpy, little
legs of Eddie Tolan, colored sensa
tion of the 1932 Olympic games,
carry him to victory on the cinder
paths. Falling in line with Ralph
Hill, his Olympic teammate, and
others who have recently turned
in their spikes for more serious oc
cupations, the bespectacles sprint
champion announced recently that
he would never race again.
Two weeks ago Eddie, after
months of searching following his
double victories in the 100 and
200 meter events at Los Angeles,
found a job. He is a filing clerk in
a county office here.
Just before his astounding vic
tories in the games, which sent his
name around the world Tolan
wrote to his mother: “I want so
much to see our name head the
list when the result is announced,
for I know that if I can win the
two dash events our worries will
be lessened and some brightness
will return to our lives.”
He won the two big events, but
he didn’t get a job. He had an en
tire room full of medals, gover
nors had issued proclamations, and
orators had extolled his name for
his sportsmanship and prowess,
but still no job. Michigan even
went so far as to have an official
“Eddie Tolan Day” by official
proclamation.
Now that he has the job, he
means to keep it.
“I haven’t any complaints,” said
Tolan, “I just don't think I’ll ever
run again. I’m sticking to my
job.”
I oday Is Deadline
For Handball Tilts
All-campus handball and ping
pong tournaments will get under
way this week. An unusually
large number of candidates have
signed up for the tourneys this
year and some fast competition in
the various events is expected.
First round matches must be
completed by today, or the flip of
the coin will decide the winner. It
is urged that every participant co
operate with Mr. Boushey and
complete the scheduled matches on
time.
Dr. Mueller Will Speak
Before Socialist Club
John H. Mueller, professor of
sociology, will speak to the Stu
dent Socialist club tonight at 7:15
p. m. at the "Y” hut. His topic
will be, “Is America Socialized?”
Dr. Mueller spent the summer
of 1931 in Russia so is highly
qualified to draw comparisons be
tween the American situation and
conditions in Soviet Russia. He is
able to answer satisfactorily some
of the questions as to the extent
of socialization in this country.
Attendance is not restricted to
members of the club.

Andrew Conroy, formerly of the
accounting staff of the University

Corvallis as business manager,
and will also head the division of
requisitions and claims.
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
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.
^ ou 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.

Rogers Gives Everybody Chance
To Show Speed in Workout
As Rook Tilt Nears
The frosh basketball squad went
through a hard practice session
last night, scrimmaging against
the super-varsity. Red Rogers is
bearing down in an attempt to get
the team in shape for the first
rook game, which is only a little
over a week away.
The ducklings started off in
practice by putting on the poorest
exhibition of the year, but after a
short warm-up, they smoothed
out a little. They still look ragged,
but they should be able to settle
down before the “little civil war”
starts. Most of the trouble seemed
to be in the defense. Failure to
watch the ball caused considerable
confusion, allowing the offensive
team time to get set.
Coach Rogers gave everyone a
chance in the scrimmage, sizing
them all up, but as yet he has not
picked a starting combination from
the squad. The whole group was
erratic throughout the scrimmage,
flashing real ball at times, and at
other times, looking like a bunch
of grammar school fans.
No games have been scheduled
yet for this week-end, and Rogers
is planning several hard practice
sessions to get the team out of its
slump. A practice game may be
scheduled for sometime next week
to give Rogers a chance to see how
they act under fire, and to give
him a chance to pick a lineup to
start against the rooks.
