rpHIS column is going to do some
^ first-class crying today, wheth
er you like it or not. The subject
for the dissatisfaction is the same
that has been discussed all over
the campus since the advent of
intramural athletics oh, so long
ago. WHY CAN’T CUPS BE
PROVIDED FOR CHAMPIONS
OF DONUT TOURNAMENTS?
It doesn’t seem beyond reason
that intramural champs should
want some emblem of their vic
tories .... just any, we cry, from
a silver loving cup to a safety pin.
* * *
Imagine how much more popu
lar homecoming would be on the
campus if when Joe College ’93
could hobble back to the old fire
place at the Tappa Kegga house,
point out a shining mug on the
mantle, and say proudly, “Boys,
I played No. 1 flipper on the tid
dly-wink team that copped that
beauty. Ain’t she a peach."
And, what’s more, picture your
self in the place of the robust grad
who might grab a plaque hanging
' .n the den, and shout, “I was the
guy who talked Mickey Vail out
of the game that won this. Hot
Dawg, wait’ll you hear the rest."
* * *
Securing cups should not be
such a task. Using the system fol
lowed by our own Colonel Bill
Hayward in securing awards for
campus track meets (that is, se
curing some sort of prize from
business houses in the city)
should provide ample means to
provide some awards for the win
ners.
At present, there seems to be no
incentive to mural teams outside
of the hip-hip-hurrah of the fresh
men in the rooting sections, and
an occasional bit of coveted pub
licity through the channels of the
campus newspaper.
Think it over.

Ed "Turkey” Lewis, bean-pole

in the lead of individual scorers in
the northern division, it was re
vealed by figures announced yes

not only showed the way in the

for the scoring honors of the coast,
leading the southern division pace
setter, Piper, U. O. L. A., by 31
points.
Lewis' total of 157 points scored
in 14 games also puts him in a
favored spot to set a new higli
scoring record in the northern di
vision. The present mark, held
jointly by Harold Stoweli of Ida
ho and Huntly Gordon of Wash
ington State, is 171 points. Lewis
needs but 15 points in his remain
ing two games against Oregon to
surpass this mark and hang up a
new record.
Skeet O’Connell, another Or

points to stay in second place
ahead of "Cap” Roberts of Ore

week-end long enough to play
Multnomah club of Portland here
Saturday night at 7:30 o’clock.
Oregon State defeated the Mult
nomah players in a pre-season
game by a 48 to 29 score, but since
that time the Portland quintet has
shown a great deal of improve
ment and at present is rated as one
of the best teams in Portland.
With only two games, both with
the University of Oregon March 3
and 4, remaining on their 1933
conference schedule, the Orange
men have a good chance to take
the championship as they are lead
ing the University of Washington
by one full game.

OREGON STATE COLLEGE,
Corvallis, Feb. 24.—(Special > —
Freshman basketball awards for
14 players have been recommend
ed to the board of athletic control
by Roy Lamb, rook basketball
coach. The rooks completed one
of their most successful seasons
recently by winning nine games
out of 12 starts.
Several promising varsity pros
pects played for the Orange babes
this season. Bob Bergstrom and
Wally Palmberg, both all-state
men from Astoria, who scored 110

procured, but complications set in,
and double pneumonia in its
severest form claimed the stricken
youth.
A tribute, unsurpassed in its
compass, came from Billy Rein
hart, who for three years tutored
Stahl on the maple court. Said
Reinhart, “Homer Stahl played
the game. He was one of the
hardest workers on the squjid, and
never at any time complained. He
possessed an excellent character,
was courageous, and a boy whom
everyone liked."
Reinhart Stays Behind
In order to receive hourly re
ports on Stahl’s condition, Rein
hart remained behind his Oregon
hoop squad, which left Thursday
for Seattle, where it met the Uni
versity of Washington in a con
ference game last night. Not un
til yesterday morning at 9 o'clock,
when he found that he could no
longer be of any help to the boy,
did Bill leave for the north.
Stahl not only “played the
game" in basketball, but he also
did it in life. He was a member
of Delta Tan Delta social frater
nity and of Beta Sigma Phi hon
orary. He was an outstanding stu
dent, and, despite his activities in
other lines, found time to earn
enough to partially defray his ex
penses during his college career.
He was born in Mayfield, Wis
consin, June 15, 1910. and in June
of 1928 he was graduated from
Grant high school in Portland,
where he starred in basketball.
Since that time he has been a stu
dent at the University and was to
have received his degree this
spring.

Tonight, between the hours o(

DR. MEZ GIVES OBJEC
TIONS TO ‘BUY AMERICA’
(Continued from Pctcje One)
where the price is higher. There
are those who would restrict the
stage coaches or truck in favor of
railroads, or suppress chain stores
in favor of retailers.
“On February 16 the Oregon
senate passed a bill prohibiting the
sale of prison-manufactured goods
in the open market. This step is
intended to protect workers
against the competition of prison
labor, but the motive behind the
measure, the belief that any man
working thereby deprives another
man of a job, is a monstrous fal
lacy which completely ignores the
fact that one man’s labor may also
create demand for the other man’s
services or products.
Employment of labor does not
depend on a given amount of jobs
which are distributed among a
fixed number of workers. Employ
ment fluctuates according to de
mand and supply. The last thing
that will relieve unemployment is
the use of public money to pay
men to remain idle.
When a married woman cannot
earn a salary, when an alien fs
prevented from supporting himself
and his family, when thousands of
prisoners are kept from contribut
ing to their maintenance, the de
mand for the services of other la
bor will tend to be reduced rather
than increased. The state as a
whole will not be enriched, but im
poverished by too many restric
tions.
"In Minnesota the state peniten
tiary has a well-organized prison
industry, contributing $3,000,000
annually toward its own support
and the state treasury, thus reliev
ing the taxpayers by that amount.
The prison factory of Sing Sing
produced nearly $300,000 in 1932.
In Oregon it is the taxpayer who
feeds and maintains the prisoners
at an annual cost of $400,000.
"Some day, when saner econom
ic concepts prevail, the public will
insist that prisoners support them
selves, instead of paying a huge
dole in order to keep them idle. If
the prisoners were forced to work
for their maintenance, the state
would be enriched by several mil
lion dollars every decade. Prison
goods exchanged for foods, cloth
ing, raw materials and other sup
plies would create a demand for
the labor of others and thus in
crease employment, while the tax
payer's money would still be saved
to be spent on other products or
services.

Milligan was the tough boy for
the frosh, committing 11 personal

eight, just one ahead of Sanford.
The frosh committed 40 personal
fouls, or an average of 10 per

assign the 'epic to whomever is
most interested in it.
Limitations Necessary
Several limitations will govern
the service. Dean Allen said they
were necessary because of the
youth of the experiment and other
entangling facts. The journalism
school head also remarked that he
was confident the experiment
would enjoy success and that he
was sure the editors of the state
would welcome it as a helpful
addition to their informational re
sources.
The new project is offered as
an experiment with the coopera
tion of the school of social sci
ences, and it is not desired to pub
licize it widely nor expand it
greatly until it has proved its
practicability and worth. In the
interest of sound scholarship, the
following limitations have been
established:
Restrictions Listed
1. Rush jobs will not be accept
ed. The work is in part for the
students’ educational benefit, and
time must be allowed for him to
test his procedures. Researches
will ordinarily begin in October,
January, and April, and two and a
half months should be allowed.
2. Researches are for the pres
ent restricted to questions that are
public in their nature and either
now in a controversial stage or in
the editor’s opinion likely soon to
become controversial, and investi
gations will be undertaken only
where, in the judgment of the fac

available in Oregon libraries to
justify the student's expenditure
of time and effort.

be added a report of the opinions
of the best available experts on
the University faculty and else

Pink staff Startles
Physics Staff With
100% Quiz Paper
A miracle has happened, and ev
ery member of the physics staff is
toppling on the verge of utter be
wilderment.
For the first time in the mem
ory of professors, a student has
written a perfect paper in physi
cal science!
The lucky (or should a feat of
such brilliance be termed
‘‘lucky" ?) student is Gay Pink
staff, freshman, social science ma
jor. In an hour exam in the survey
of physical science, out of 136 pos
sible points, Pinkstaff made a to
tal of 136.
Eight members of the physics
staff corrected the papers—and
even eight critical, unbelieving
pairs of eyes could find no mis
take. A perfect paper in physical
science!—there was never such as
tonishment among graders.
However, there was some relief
on the other side of the scale, for
in the same exam one student re
ceived 11 points and several had
33.
Dr. F. C. Allen, veteran athletic
director and coach of the Univer
sity of Kansas, who was a leader
in the major change in the basket
ball rules last year—adoption of
the 10-second regulation has
come out in opposition to blatant
rowdyism expressed in the form of
booing, hissing, and the well
known Kronx cheer.
“While stalling had its draw
backs,” Doctor Allen says, “I
think that booing and rowdyism
in basketball crowds are getting
so bad that unless definite steps
are made to curtail them, they
will kill the game.
“It seems all wrong to me that
we permit the public, because it
pays some money, to deride, cajole
and abuse the officials.”
The Kansas coach, who is dis
trict chairman of the N. C. A. A.
rules body, has a remedy:
“Serve notice to the public that
booing will not be tolerated,” he
says; “that it is considered un
sportsmanlike, that anyone found
booing will be escorted to the box
office, and after his money is re
funded he will be asked to leave
the building.
i “I expect to bring this up at the
meeting of our national associa
tion in New York in April and I
also expect to bring it up at the
joint rules committee meeting.
“In my opinion, this is the next
big drive to put on.”

Student Missing
Since January 6
Henry H. Gibbs Disappears After
Making Threats of Suicide;
Memory Lapse Feared
A letter received by the Emer
ald editor this week from H. C.
Gibbs, 1821 Newton street, N. W.,
Washington, D. C., requests that
all students be on the lookout for
his son, Henry Huntington Gibbs,
a 20-year-old sophomore at the
Wharton School of Finance, Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, who dis
• appeared from that institution
about 4 p. m., January 6, 1933.
Young Gibbs vanished after
sending letters ' to his father and
to W. Chattin Wetherill, director
of student welfare at the university,
threatening suicide and stating
that his body would never be found.
It is feared that he has suffered a
lapse of memory from a nervous
breakdown due to overstudy and
financial worry.
Gibbs is a tall, blond boy, six
l feet, three or four inches tall, and
j weighs from 135 to 145 pounds. He
! has light golden-brown hair and
grey-blue eyes. His left arm is
slightly crooked from a break one
inch above the elbow. At the time
of his disappearance, he probably
wore a dark blue suit with a dou
ble-breasted coat, a dark over
coat, and either black or tan shoes.
Any information leading to
knowledge of the whereabouts of
the missing student will be appre
ciated by his father and by Mr.
Wetherill.
