Chinnock. VOLUME XXXIV_UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1933 _Page 4 Nobody’s Business By BRUCE HAMBY P* VERY season there are one or ^ two eventful athletic classics. Fall term it was the gridiron con Skeet O’Connell test between Oregon and Ore ;on State at Uorvallis. Next ■pring it will nost likely be the dual track neet with the Beavers. Tonight .he Webfoots and Aggies meet once more in a basketball con test that should be the most col orrui or an. The Aggies are in dire need of a win to keep them in running for the northern division title. That defeat handed them by the University of Idaho last week was a severe blow to their chances of edging out Washington for first place honors and the right to meet the southern division champions in the conference playoff. Slats Gill will certainly have his pro teges on edge tonight for the Mc Arthur court contest. * * * While the Beavers are anxious to win to keep their standing at the top, Bill Reinhart’s Ore gon Webfoots _ are even more anxious to emerge on top and brighten an otherwise disas trous season. Only once have they been able to come out on the long end of the score. A single victory over the Aggies would mean more to Reinhart and the members of the team than winning half a dozen games from other members of the division. * * * There is every indication that tonight's crowd will be one of the largest to witness a basketball game in Eugene for years. Re ports from Corvallis state that plans for a special train are being made, and students and towns people alike are planning to jour ney the 40 miles to watch the tra ditional battle. Prominent sport writers of Portland and other state newspapers will be on hand to cover the contest. It is really an amazing finish to a poor sea son. Only the fact that Oregon State is on top and Oregon on the bottom makes it so dramatic. I doubt that if the two teams were fighting for the flag there could be no greater interest shown. * * * For the past week Reinhart has drilled the Webfoots in a special offense designed for use against the Beaver zone defense. The veteran Oregon coach will use the same lineup that downed Idaho last week. Cap Roberts will start at center and will check Ed Lewis on the defense. Jack Robertson and Homer Stahl will take care of the guard positions, and Gib Olinger and Kermit Stevens, the for ward berths. w w Besides Lewis the Webfoots will have to pay particular attention to a dark-haired speed demon named Skeet O’Connell, without a doubt the fastest player in the northern section. Little Gib Olin ger will most likely be given the chance to keep him away from the basket. Other members of the Aggies’ starting lineup will be Carl Lenchitsky and Red McDon ald, husky guards, and probably Merle Taylor, midget sophomore, ns O’Connell’s running mate. * * * The added attraction of the eve ning is the final game of the Rook-Frosh series. DOUGLASS MUM ABOUT ADVANCING DEADLINE (Continued from Page One) nre sufficient books and the stu dents have reasonably good ex cuses for returning them late, Douglass stated. Reports from various library of ficials seem to indicate that there are not as many students de manding the change in hours as previously rumored. Mrs. Mabelle Rietman, head li brarian in the English-history re serve, stated that the 9 o'clock hour would prove ineffective be cause, as the situation stands, of the five or six books that are re turned late each day, many are turned back to the desk as late as noon or even in the afternoon. Rooks Turn Back Frosli Five With Last Minute Basket Yearling Tilt Ends32To31 At Corvallis Durland Sags Net in Last 30 Seconds of Play Orange Babes Have Ten Point Lead at Half; Ducklings Bally In Final Canto By BILL EBERHART CORVALLIS, Or., Feb. 17.— (Special) The Oregon frosh lost a heart-breaker to the Rooks at Corvallis last night. The yearlings were one point ahead with 30 sec onds to go and were stalling for time. The rooks broke up the stall but Harcombe fouled Blacker. Blacker missed the shot, Palmberg snapped the ball to Durland, who sunk one from the center for the winning point. They had time for one more tip-off but the gun sounded with the rooks out in front 32 to 31. Coach Red Rogers can be proud of the showing his team turned in last night. The rooks led at half time 18 to 8, but the second half was a different story. Harcombe started off with a cripple and Blacker and Joslin scored a field goal and made a free throw. It was this juncture that the frosh stuck their funnel in the basket and started pouring them in. They garnered 14 points while the rooks were held scoreless and were out ahead 24 to 22. Bergstrom Is Star Bergstrom, high point man of the game with 13, dropped a buck et to tie the score, and Joslin add ed a cripple to forge ahead two points. Buck put the frosh back in the game with a nice long shot, but Blacker, rook center, dropped one to again break the tie. Then, with three minutes to go, Sanford came through with a push shot to knot the score at 28. Joslin committed his fourth per sonal ibtil and was forced to leave the game. Sanford made good the conversion to put the frosh on top by one point. Bergstrom dissipat ed the slim lead with a beautiful toss from mid-court and almost put the game in the bag for the rooks. Stroble, who had entered the game only a few minutes be fore, played the hero and pulled the game out of the fire with a quick one-hander going full speed down the side of the court. Then Harcombe fouled Blacker and Durland pulled his long shot that saved the day for the baby Bea vers. First Period Slow The first canto was a slow af fair with the rooks dominating the play. Their offense clicked from the start and they ran up a 10 to 2 lead in the first few minutes. Milligan and Sanford increased the Oregon score to six, but it wasn't long until the half was over with the rooks in possession of a nice 10 point lead. The tilt ended in the kind of dramatic, hair-raising finishes that you read about but seldom see. If the game tonight, which starts at 0:45, is half as good, it will be a hum-dinger. * summary: Frosh— FG FT PF Buck . 3 10 Stroble .1 o 1 James .0 0 0 Milligan. 2 2 3 Sanford .4 2 2 Harcombe .3 0 3 Hampton .0 0 0 McCredie .0 0 0 13 5 1« Rooks— Palmberg .3 p 2 Durland . 1 i p Blacker .2 2 0 Bergstrom.5 3 1 Joslin .1 2 4 Makela .0 0 p Moe . 0 0 0 12 8 7 Referee: Dwight Adams, Salem. Ex-Grid Players Enroll at W. S. C, WASHINGTON STATE COL LEGE, Pullman, Feb. 17. George Hurley, guard, and Emmett (Muttt Schroeder, halfback members of the Washington State champion ship team of 1930, have returned to college this semester to continue their scholastic work. Hurley, who was named All-Coast guard in 1931, played professional football with the Boston Braves last fall and was named on the All-Ameri can professional second team. Jack Parodi, guard on the 1930 eleven, is also considering return ing. he served as assistant coach af the College of Puget Sound last fall. Drop Bears to Stay on Top UEE ! GUTTERO { W; JULIUS BESCOS fi i...• Led by Lee Guttero, six-foot, two-ineh pivot man, Southern California’s league-leading Tro jans tightened their grip on the southern division pennant last night with a 28-27 overtime victory over the Bears of California. This quartet of sharpshooters played a big part in the victory, which assures the S. C. squad of nothing worse than a tie for the southern title. Entry List Open For All-Campus Fencing Tourney Everyone interested in fencing should sign up either at the office bulletin board or on a sheet pro vided for that purpose in the wres tling room within the next week. Competition will be held in three events, the foil, epee, and saber. Those who are not too skillful in the gentle art of fencing may ob tain instruction from Mr. Powell who will be stationed at the fenc ing room next week. The bouts will, be held on February 27, 28, and March 2. Porter Norris is the title-holder in the foil division but as he is not in school this throws the field wide open for this event. Bussell Tink ham is last year's champ of the epee class, while Don Cross holds the crown in the saber division. Several prospective title-seekers have been working out lately and some very good matches will be on slate when the bouts begin. U. OF 0. MEDICAL UNIT CARES FOR 14,638 IN YEAR (Continued from Page One) sent in credentials, many from dis tant points. Since preference must be given students from the north west, all those from elsewhere were automatically rejected. Out of a total of 66 accepted, 57 or more than 86 per cent were from Oregon. The selection did'not ex clude any Oregon applicant whose previous record showed him quali fied to enter. The amount of research work during the year is shown in the listing of 52 separate publications prepared by members of the staff. More than 60 separate studies are now under way. A grant of $13, 000 for research has been made by the Rockefeller foundation for the biennium 1932-33, which will be of great aid in this important phase of the institution's work. Psychiatry Developed The development of two depart ments, that of psychiatry and den tal medicine, has been particularly noteworthy, according to the re port. Dr. Henry H. Dixon, for merly of the University of Colo rado Medical school, was appoint ed as associate professor of psy chiatry with authority to proceed with development of the psychi atry department and clinics. Arthur W. Chance, M.D., D.D.D., | was appointed associate clinical professor of dental medicine, and through the generosity of persons interested in this field, established the department of dental medicine. I Research studies in this phase of work were developed, while the clinic affords facilities for the pa tient, students, and staff in den tal medicine. The medical school received $15,026.07 in gifts during the year, in addition to numerous articles and free services of individuals and organizations. Copies of the report may be ob- j tained from the division of infer- j mat ion at the University of Ore gon.

The sharpshooting Eeaver pivot man took the lead at the be ginning of the season, and through out thirteen games has never re linquished it. He has amassed a total of 57 fieldgoals and 29 free throws to count for 143 points, a lead of 52 points over “Skeet” O’Connell, a team mate, who rests in second place. The leaders: Games Fg. Ft. Pf.

O'Connell, the fastest man in this section of the con ference, is second to Lewis in indi vidual scoring. Grudges To Be Aired Several minor feuds and old grudges are due to be renewed tonight. O'Connell and Spook Robertson. Oregon forward, have been rivals ever since high school days in Portland. Robertson has played great basketball in the past two weeks. Another former Portland high school star playing tonight will be Homer Stahl, who was leading the Portland league in scoring at Grant high when his teammate i and rivals were still pondering J over freshman algebra. The lineups follow: Oregon O. S. C. Robertson .F. O'Connell Stahl .F. Hibbard j Roberts tCl .C. tCl Lewis Stevens .G. McDonald Olinger .G. Lenchitsky S.A.E. Celluloid Swatters Defeat Touted Yeomen Fraternity Squad Wins Match Easily To Enter Finals Of Campus Tourney The S. A. E. ping-pong team caught a highly touted Yeomen trio fresh from a 9-0 victory over S. P. E. yesterday afternoon and handed them a 6-3 drubbing. The S. A. E. squadron, consisting of Don Eva, Hal Birkinshaw and Darrel Cornell, thereby entered the finals, and will meet the win ner of the Phi Kappa Psi-Delta Tau Delta match to determine the intramural championship and pos session of the McMorran and Washburne trophy. The Phi Psi Delt semi-finals match will be played at 4 o’clock Tuesday at the Y hut, and the finals will be played there at 4 :30 Thursday, ac cording to Bill Shepherd, who is managing the tournament for the University Y. M. C. A. cabinet. When the Yeomen team, con sisting of campus champion Ethan Newman, Ingram Kjossness and Verne Adams, took into camp a strong Sigma Phi Epsilon team, made up of Bob Anderson, Bob Foley and Kimball Page, without the loss of a game, they were given better th^i an even chance against the S. A. E. team. But in the play-off Newman was de feated by both Birkinshaw, 21-18, and Eva, 21-18, winning only from Cornell, 21-14. Kjossness beat Eva, 21-13, and Birkinshaw, 21-13, but lost to Cornell, 21-17. The loss of all three games by Adams gave the S. A. E.’s their margin of victory. The Delt team, Jerry Blair, Homer Stahl and Floyd Lees, is favored over Phi Kappa Psi, since they won their way to the semi finals without the loss of a game. If they win from the Phi Psi’s and meet the S. A. E.'s in the finals, it will be anyone’s tourna ment. Women’s Sports i=By ROBERTA MOODY^i Kappa Alpha Theta splashed out 35 points to the Independents 17 in a swimming meet Friday after noon. In spite of the difference in scores, each race was exception ally close. Jane Fales, Theta, ran away with the 40-yard free style, Ilene Moore, Independent, the 20 yard breast stroke, and Elizabeth Langille, Theta, the diving con test. Margaret Ann Smith, Theta, brought down three first places, in the 40-yard single overarm, rac ing backstroke, and plunge. * * « The women's pool is open every day at 5 for anyone who cares to swim. * * * There will be a hike today to Peter’s lodge, starting at 1:30. The group will leave the wo men’s building led by Eula Richad son and will go approximately 12 miles. Everybody is urged to come. * * * Tryouts for basketball teams will be held next week. Anyone is eligible who has played on a house team, or has been out for intramural basketball. Thursday night at 4, tryouts will be held for freshmen and sopho mores; at 5 for juniors and seniors.

Senator Morse Finally Scores Social Basket Sterling Athlete Is Dined and Feted Prior to Debut at Theta’s Formal By HARRY HANDBALL The recent highly-publicized fra cas featuring as a double bill Senator Raymond Joseph (Butch) Morse and Carol (Fash) Hurlburt started as the result of a sprained ankle. Well, that sounds good, anyway. Maybe it was a sprained elbow. We haven't got the statis tics down very well anyway. A long time ago (perhaps it was in the days when knights were bold) Miss Hurlburt asked the no torious Mr. Morse to the Theta for mal. We emphasize the long ago part. Well, ever since the invitation the Butcher has been in the lime light. At the Order of the “O” meeting he was dubbed "Senator,” and made a knight of the Garter on the side. (editor's Note: Mr. Morse used to jerk sodas in Fay etteville, 111. We just stuck this in because we thought you might want to know.) It is deplorable to note that Sen ator Morse was a good two hours late in arriving at the Kappa Alpha Theta house (the scene of the dance). This undoubtedly owing to the fact that Senator Morse was detained by countless thou sands of mechanics, shop-girls, soda-jerkers, etc.', who besieged him with requests for his auto graph. A. II.

The stunning victory of the Cougars bounced the Huskies out of first place, which was usurped by the idle Oregon Aggies, who meet University of Oregon at Eu gene tonight. Washington State went to town early in the game and never was headed, although Galer and Ost ling led a last-minute Washington rally that livened proceedings late in the last half. Ken Wills, Pete Sonnendecker and Hex Scott led the Cougar attack, Sonnendecker scoring 11 points. The teams meet here again to morrow night. Washington holds a 2-to-l edge in the series, but must play again tomorrow with out Captain Johnny Fuller, scor ing ace, who helped it down the Cougars twice at Seattle recently. Yeomen To Hold Meet In Gerlinger Monday Oregon Yeomen, organization of independent men on the campus, will meet Monday evening at 7:30 on the third floor of Gerlinger hall, it was announced yesterday by Ethan Newman, president of the organization. Although the meeting will be short, it is imperative that all members be present .according to Newman, as final plans for the Yeomen dance February 25 will be drawn up. Other business sched uled for discussion is the smoker to be given later in the term and the athletic policy of the organi zation. The intramural rifle trophy which the organization won last term will be formally presented at the meeting. In five years 2,000 crippled chil dren have been treated at the Uni versity of Missouri hospitals at Volumbia, Mo.
