And I also agree with certain people around the cam pus who believe that Mr. Gregory should find out what he is writ Jilg UUUUk WCiinv “ umn ridiculing the University of ficials and coach. Evidently Gregory wrote his column before he had learned the facts of the case. The first stories were released from Corvallis and naturally presented the Beavers' side of the argument. This re lease of the story was made after the Oregon State officials had promised Hugh Rosson anil Bill Reinhart that they would keep the matter quiet in hopes that a set tlement could be reached. This they did not do. * * * Over at Corvallis the Inquiry is: “What’s wrong with Pilu so?” Nothing at all, except that he asked to be relieved of the task of refereeing the games. Oregon officials agreed, and asked Carl Lodell and Slats Gill V to name someone else, giving them the privilege of naming anyone they might choose. * * * But here’s one thing that I can’t understand. Just why is Oregon State so insistent upon having Piluso? Every odd in the books is in their favor. The league leaders- are meeting the cellar champions. They should be able to win without a referee. But, no, they must have Emil Piluso to night at Corvallis. * * * Oregon is certainly within its rights in asking that a substi tute official be named. And the Webfoot officials have given the Beavers every break possible by offering to let them name the man, or men, without even con sulting Eugene on the matter. Ralph Coleman, of the Oregon State campus, is entirely satis factory. Bobby Morris, very popular at every school except Oregon State, would do. Fol gate of Whitman would fill the breach very well, for he has a fine reputation around Spokane and Walla Walla. Reinhart even consented to let Slats Gill offi ciate. But the Beavers must have Piluso. Figure out your own answer. * * * Piluso gave as his reason for being relieved of the job: “Due to the fact that no effort is being made to curtail the students at the University of Oregon in voicing their opinion at decisions made in a basketball game, 1 think it wise that you secure someone else who will be satisfactory to offici ate your next games with Oregon State college. “A minimum amount of help from the students could be toler ated and is to be expected, but it became the regular occurrence to voice mass opinion at every deci sion rather than occasionally. This not only jeopardized the short lived life of an official, but also one's individual responsibility.” * * * The Barometer sports editor comments on the above letter as follows: "He (Piluso) merely disliked the spirit shown by Uni versity students at basketball games and we may well imagine that he would, for the University is well noted up and down the coast for its unsportsmanlike conduct at athletic contests. If Piluso's ears gathered only a few of the many uncomplimentary, SPECIAL To Students Teacher Application Pictures ROMANE STUDIO 992 Willamette Phone 128-W Hobby’s Sons Have Grand Hoop Record Ashland Squad Composed Of Eight Freshmen Lack of Funds Stand In Way of Trip to National Tourney At Kansas City ASHLAND, March 2—(Special) —"Hobby” Hobson’s Southern Ore gon Normal basketball team, who y eriLcx ictcjv ed an invitation to represent the Oregon district in the national basketball cham pionships at Kan sas City next week, have an enviable record behind them. The Sons have Howard Hobson won their last 11 games, 6 of them played away from home, and boast of a sea son’s mark of 18 victories to 5 defeats. All five of these setbacks were late avenged, and only one team — Oregon Normal — has se cured an even break with Hob son’s five. Beat Ducks Three Times Among their victories the Nor mal squad boasts three over the University of Oregon, two over the strong Willamette university ag gregation, three over Multnomah club of Portland, and one over De Neffe’s of Eugene, recent winner of the state open court title. The Sons have played and beat en every outstanding club in the state with the exception of Ore gon State college. The impressive thing about the record of Hobson's squad is that it was made with eight freshmen, none of whom had played college basketball before. The squad is composed of Ward Howell, cen ter; Willard Jones, Len Yandle, Elton Forncrook, and C. Patter son, forwards; and Budd Jones, Dick Jockisch, and Lyle Reeder, guards. Willard Jones and Howell are the scoring aces of the team, tallying 216 and 211 points respec tively in game? played to date. Money Needed for Trip It has not yet been decided whether the Normal squad will make the trip east for the tourna ment because of the lack of funds. Hobson plans to accept the invita tion of the A. A. U. board, how ever, if financial arrangements can be made. x1 uuuwiiig Liiu ouiiipifie yea son’s record of the Sons: Opponent Opp. Sons Medford Texaco’s ... .23 48 Grants Pass All Star .... 20 60 University of Oregon 26 43 Multnomah Club . 19 36 Multnomah Club . 45 36 Willamette. 40 38 University of Oregon . . 33 35 University of Oregon .. . 32 37 University of Oregon ... . 38 17 DeNeffe’s . 25 38 Monmouth . 46 34 Monmouth ... .33 28 Monmouth . 31 40 Monmouth . 26 35 Medford Texaco’s . 21 35 Klamath Falls Cubs . 26 50 Klamath Falls Cubs .14 62 Chico State . 31 34 Chico State . 25 36 Multnomah Club .19 45 Multnomah Club. 23 42 I Willamette . 27 38 | Willamette . 32 34 655 901 j profane remarks directed at him from the Lemon-Yellow rooting section at the last Orange bas I ketball game in Eugene, we should certainly not blame him for refusing to visit the Oregon court again." * * * Personally, I can’t comment on the authenticity of the above ; statement, for the Oregon State j rooting section was directly be | hind the McArthur court press box l and it was hard enough to con | eentrate on the game, let alone listen to anything else, over the ! booing from the Beaver section. This is not meant as a "smart retort” to the Barometer. Mr. Gregory was there, himself, and can vouch for the truth of it.

Virile 'Gorilla’ Berg Doesn’t Like Girls, but Dancing-Well By HAZLE CORRIGAN Bill Berg is eccentric. On bas ketball trips hs eats the most, slopes tlm most, is alwavs the last ..v-x'v ... .ivia Bill Bt-rg one up, and gets through break fast last, accord ing to reports from those who know. It seems that a certain red head gave “Goril la" Berg, Ore gon's guard, the go-by in Seattle last week. Of bourse, as he tells 1L. A U1UU L waul LIA lilU L A-itl - Grande Houghton's feelings. And anyway, I didn’t want to run any competition with Houghtop, Watts, anil Miller. “I don’t like girls,” he said. But he likes dancing all right. “Well, I can’t dance without girls, so I guess they are all right after all, especially if they’re peppy. But I don't have a chance when there are so many good-looking men on the team. “One of the greatest events of my life occurred on the Idaho trip. It was the honor of having the great Kermit Stevens for a room mate. I guess the other event of my life was meeting Jimmy Em mett from Corvallis.” Berg is particularly fond of sweets and training rules cause a great hardship for him. He dis likes baseball because it is too slow. Basketball is his favorite sport and golf is next in line. “Rourke, Simons, and Houghton make up the team’s musical trio. I think they plan to go on the stage after basketball season. Where ? Oh, the Roxy in New York.” Before every game Berg annoys the team by tapping his feet for fear he will fall down. One mem ber of the team wishes that Berg lived where it snows oftener. He wouldn’t need any snowshoes. Berg is very much interested in music. He attends concerts when ever he is not away on basketball trips. One of his ambitions is to travel, but he isn't interested in Africa. He is a business adminis tration major and lives in Eugene. “The best sportsman in the con ference is Emil Piluso,” he said, “but be sure to put a question mark after that."

Hugh Hosson, graduate mana ger, expressed his approval of the amicable settlement of the referee dispute, when informed late last night after his return from Cot tage Grove. "I am glad that Mr. Mitchell is acceptable to Coach Reinhart and appreciate the spirit of cooperation demonstrated by the officials of Oregon State col lege,” he said. COACHING GROUP TO BE FORMED BY GRADUATES (Continued from Page One) other course can make arrange ments to obtain this. This plan has been tried out successfully at the University of California and many other schools throughout the country and at some has even proved so useful that it is now carried on at the ex pense of the school itself. Among the sponsors of the idea on this campus are R. D. Adams, K. S. Landstrom, and Grenville Jones. Officials of the University have sanctioned the coaching service. Classes will be held in the Craftsman's club on 14th street, between Kincaid and Alder. • Blair Takes % Three Donut Sword Titles __ > Champ Is Crowned in All Three Divisions Saber Wielders To Make Trip To Seattle for Matches During Holidays It was up to Jimmy Blair to win the all-campus fencing tour nament after he had lost in the opening rounds of the foils con tests. He was crowned champion of all three classes yesterday, foils, sabers, and epees, after he had suc cessfully overcome Joe Bishop in the final bout of the night. Had Bishop won, three fencers would have been tied for first place hon ors. Blair, in what was the best bout of the evening, took sturdy Lee Winetrout by surprise with a vic ious attack which completely be wildered the Zeta hall boy. How ever, once Winetrout got started Blair found it no easy matter to gain his touches. The final count of this bout was 5-1 in Blair’s fa vor. John Caswell, who up to last night had generally been rated the dark horse of the tournament lost all his scheduled bouts. Two of these he lost to Winetrout and Blaft- after some excellent fencing and the other by forfeit to Joe Bishop, who arrived late. The boys participating in the tournament this year will make a trip to Seattle during spring vaca tion in order to compete with the University of Washington fencing team. Fencers who will probably make the trip are as follows: James Blair, No. 1; Lee Winetrout, No. 2; Joe Bishop, No. 3; John Cas well, No. 4; and Irvin Hill, No. 5. 'WE’RE READY,’ DECLARE BILL’S BASKETBALLERS (Continued from Page One) hart-coached team is not the gang to lay down in a ball game, just for the privilege of a possible chance of viewing an interesting play-off a little later. Fighting Their Way Back Oregon performance against the Huskies in Seattle last week-end brings the Webfoots up to a par with the Staters as far as dope on tonight’s game is concerned. In fact, Oregon entertains a slight psychological advantage, for they will go into the game with no thoughts of a possible champion ship to bother them. Whereas the Beavers are likely to be concerned with delusions of grandeur and let the ball game slip through theit nervous fingers, an assumption that in no way reflects upon Ore gon State’s fitness to be division champions, but merely that any team in similar circumstances is subject to the same state of mind. The second tilt of the two-game series is scheduled for tomorrow night in McArthur court. Both games are set for 7:30. Tentative lineups: Oregon Oregon State Robertson .F. O’Connell Stevens .F.

Basketball Now Popular iu Chile SANTIAGO, Chile — (AP) — Basketball came into its own in Chile during the past season, and now is rated as a major sport. During the season just ending, the South American tournament was held in Santiago, a national I meet was staged in Iquique, and various international games were played. For the first time, the players have been ranked.
