Nobody’s

Business
By MALCOLM BAUER
Have patience, sport fans. Bruce
“Westbrook” Hamby, your usual
ballyhooist, was called to Portland
unexpectedly yesterday (maybe to
help Bill coach the Webfoots, who
knows?), and the game is called
for a substitution . . . the usual
red tape . . . now, time in!
Speaking of Bill and his Web
foots. With eight straight losses
to their credit in the first eight
starts, the record of Oregon’s
hoopsters would not look so en
couraging to the casual observer.
In fact, a “casual observer” in
the Oregon State Barometer con
cludes that the lowly Ducks can
not possibly win more than one
more game, and that against the
Idaho Vandals.
* * *
Reasoning so, the gentleman
from Corvallis seems to concede
the fact that the up-and-coming
Beavers are going to topple our
lads four in a row. That's a little
more than we can swallow. Has
any team of “Slats” Gill's ever
done that to a Reinhart coached
team ? For that matter has any
Gill coached team so much as tak
en a series from a five tutored by
"The Commodore”?
Just puggle these thoughts a
little, prophets before you make
any undue predictions . . . why,
Oregon court fans here in Eugene,
after seeing the Webfoots go down
to four straight defeats on their
home floor, will put their last shirt
on a bet that the Staters won’t
take more than two tilts from
Bill’s team.
* * *
No mention has been made yet
of the would-be sprinters, milers,
and hurdlers who have been brav
ing the cold winds of Hayward
field in order to be in shape when
Oregon’s crippled track season
rolls around. Colonel Bill Hay
ward isn't worrying any over the
slashes made in his pet sport, but
is putting the boys through their
paces every night.
If the Webfoots don’t make a
creditable showing at Pullman,
May 30, it won’t be the old mas
ter’s fault . . . and he has a lot of
evidence that the Webfoots will
make a creditable showing . . .
and then some . . . There’s light
ning swift Paul Starr in the
sprints . . . Fuzzy Dolloff and Bob
Hunter, two sure-fire point getters
in the distance runs . . . Fred Now
land, Mason McCoy, and Bill Pal
mer in the hurdles and high jump
... a mile relay team to be picked
from such quarter aces as Marrs,
Holman, Burr, Greenough, and
Emmett . . . not to mention the
host of big boys out playing with
the shot, discus, and javelin.
Just mention javelin, and we
think of Warren Demaris, sopho
more hope, who should put the
spear out of the lot this year.
• * *
How about the status of inde
pendent men in intramural sports?
It has been the practice for some
time to group all independents
into one group, the Yeomen, and
permit them to choose teams from
all the unaffiliated ranks.
Is there anything fair in this,
either to the fraternity teams, or
to the independent students them
selves. Any one could form a win
ning team in any sport out of the
some two hundred uthletes at the
call of the Yeoman organization.
These green-shirted warriors
walked over everything last year
to take the intramural trophy, and
they are doing the same thing
again this year.
Split the independents up, and
you will also give them more op
portunity to engage in intramural
athletics. (Isn’t that the real pur
pose of the donut sports?)
Bet’s have a new deal.
A new radio tube, said to be a
practical source of unlimited "cold
light” with which television
screens can be flooded, has been
demonstrated by the Myers Elec
trical Research laboratory in Uew
York.

Frosh Wallop Rooks in First Tilt of "Little Civil War”
Rogers’ Five
Upsets Dope
At Corvallis
Ducklings on Long End of
31-27 Score
Strobie Turns Tide of Battle in
Favor of Invaders; Orange
Itahes Outplayed
By JACK CHINNOCK
Oregon State’s highly touted
rooks went down to defeat last
night at the hands of the Oregon
frosh, 31-27. The frosh outplayed
the Orange babes in all depart
ments of the game. The score at
half time was 13 to 10 in favor
of the ducklings.
The rooks opened the scoring in
the first minute of play, but a
cripple by Buck tied the score.
The rooks again took the lead,
only to be tied, 4 to 4, after eight
minutes of play. The frosh found
themselves and went into a scor
ing spree that put them ahead, 11
to 4, a few minutes before the half
time. A rally by the rooks was
good for six points to the froshs'
two in the last two minutes of the
half.
The rooks continued their rally
in the first few minutes of the sec
ond half, taking a lead of 18-16
before the second half was five
minutes old. The yearlings settled
down, though, and by making the
best of their foul shots and crip
ples, overcame the rook advantage
to take the lead, 24-23 by the time
the second period was half over.
ntruimi uwn nuu
Marv Stroble was substituted
just seven minutes before the
final gun and with the aid of his
teammates, who gave him his
chance by perfect blocking, scored
four baskets in addition to two
foul shots. The rooks attempted
a belated rally a couple of min
utes before the game ended, shoot
ing from any place. Palmberg
managed to drop through two
shots from the center of the floor,
but It was not enough to over
come the lead that the ducklings
held.
The first period was slow, with
both teams playing cautiously and
feeling each other out. The frosh
settled down and played smoothly
and steadily, showing excellent
teamwork, and overcame the early
rook lead.
The game was rough, 18 fouls
being called, of which 10 were on
the frosh and 8 on the rooks. The
frosh sank 7 of the 11 free tosses,
while the rooks were only able to
garner 5 out of 16. Glenn Sanford
was put out of the game in the
last few minutes on personals.
Bill Gets Tip-off
Bill Harconihe consistently took
the tip-off, giving the frosh the
advantage. Almost every time the
ball was tipped-ofl’ the ducklings
got it and were able to work down
into rook territory. The frosh had
hard luck in trying to keep the
ball In the basket, having it roll
out time after time. All of the
frosh scores were from short
shots, while the rooks found it
necessary to shoot often from the
center court, being unable to con
sistently crack the strong duck
ling defense.
Palmberg and Bergstrom were
the stars for the Orange babes,
the former scoring 10 points, to
tie with Stroble of the frosh for
high-potnt man, and the latter
ringing up 7. Buck starred offen
sively for the frosh in the first
half, dropping in four baskets for
a total of 8 points, while "Flash"
Stroble took over the burden in
the second half. Sanford and Mil
ligan starred defensively, breaking
up any play that tried to break
through. Clayton James and Norm
Hampton both showed well, and
Hareombe's jumping at center was
invaluable to the green-shirted
lads.
Bed Rogers’ team meets the
rooks again tonight at the Igloo
at 7:30 in the second game of the
"little civil war.” The game is
free of charge and will be pre
ceded by a preliminary.

Hobbie’s Pride — and Loss
Here are two of the stars who helped Hobble Hobson, Ashland Normal’s basketball coach, start his
remarkable winning season. "Wee Willie” Jones, on the left, is still going strong for the Sons, but
Hobble lost the dashing McLean recently when it was learned that he had not fulfilled all scholastic re
quirements for entrance to the normal school.
Eugene fans may remember these stars as the leaders of the Sons’ invasion of Eugene, early in the
season, to split a two-game series with the Webfoots.

My Greatest Thrill in Athletics j
By BUD POZZO
(As told to Ned Simpson)
pROBABLY the greatest thrill
that I have ever gotten out of
an athletic contest came during
Hml 1*0/70
tne game wnn
N. Y. U. in New
York the fall of
1931. Asyou
probably remem
ber, our record
up to that time
was not so good,
with that 53-to-0
beating at the
hands of South
ern Cal staring
us in the face.
The fact that we
iidii urni ucaitu «
help, however, for it tended to
make the New York team think
we were easy. Just before game
time it was announced to us that
the betting odds were 10 to 2 in
favor of the home team. You can
imagine what our frame of mind
was like!
The thrill itself came when X
saw Leighton Gee catch a pass
and amble over their goal line for
our first touchdown. That was the
biggest part of the thrill, I should
have said, for the whole process
of beating those cocky easterners
was one that left a very satisfac
tory feeling with us.
Anselmo y Ferente de (Bud)
Pozzo — and Hitchcock says that
there are several more names to
go —• claims the sunny southland
for his home. He has lived in Los
Angeles all his life, and it was
there that he began his football
career. ’Way back in 1927 Bud
started winning laurels on the
grid-iron when he was selected as
all-eity running guard. He v/as
playing on the Los Angeles high
team at the time. The next year,
however, saw Bud journeying
northward to Menlo Prep and fin
ally to Menlo junior college. Here
in 1929 he earned recognition
as all-state junior college half
back. Coming to Oregon in 1930,
Bud was forced to wait a year
before participating in conference
football, so it was not until 1931
that he saw action with the Web
foots. Under “Doc” Spears he
played blocking back, and was
shifted to an end position under
Prink Callison's tutelege. “Pose”
will be back next year.

Students Provide
Ways and Means
For Iowa Sports
IOWA CITY, Feb. 3.—(AP) —
University of Iowa athletes and
coaches, with the aid of student
organizations, have waged suc
cessful war on a threatened dras
tic sports curtailment growing out
of the depression.
A few weeks ago it was exceed
ingly doubtful, because of the ath
letic board’s edict that each sport
sponsored must be self-supporting,
that there would be any winter
spring sports for Hawkeye ath
letes except basketball.
Now 54 contests are listed in five
sports other than basketball, and
there may be even more, if money
raising projects continue to pros
per.
Building and operation of a pub
lic skating rink, dances, a swim
ming show and wrestling tourna
ment have proved sources of reve
nue by which Hawkeye varsity
baseballers, tracksters, swimmers,
wrestlers and tennis players are
promised fairly complete sched
ules. Only gymnastic and golf
Schedules were abandoned.
A $350 donation by the junior
class to the sports fund provided
considerable impetus to the drive.
Including basketball games, the
winter-spring sports lineup nowin
cludes 54 dual contests, one quad
rangular meet, and 10 other cham
pionship events—state, Big Ten

Monday’s Schedule

Delta Theta “A.”
By BOB AVISON
The Phi Delta Theta ball-swat
ters went into the finals in the
"B” volleyball tourney with a
crushing victory over the Kappa
Sigs. Three games were played
before the winner was decided. The
boys from the mill race upset the
dope bucket by taking the highly
touted Phi Delt team into camp
in the first game by a 15 to 13
count. This game proved to be
a real thriller with the lead chang
ing fully a dozen times before the
winner was declared. The Phi
Delts came back strong in the
other two encounters and com
pletely swamped the Kappa Sigs.
The second game ended 15 to 7,
and the third 15 to 3.
The other series played on last
night’s schedule was won by Sig
ma Phi Epsilon. The S. P. E. sex
tet through their ability to set the
ball up completely smothered Del
ta Tau Delta. The first game end
ed in a 15 to 1 count, while the
second was somewhat closer, the
score being 15 to 12. Sphinx Wish
ard, Red Whitaker, and Ole An- -
derson formed a smooth working
trio which completely vanquished
the hopes of the boys from the hill.
Sigma Phi Epsilon and Phi Del
ta Theta will play for the cham
pionship of the “B" league Tues
day. This should prove to be a
game of games
