EMERALD SPORTS STAFF Bruce Hamby.... ....Sports Editor N Boblflddle^ioberta Moody. __.___.— m VOLUME XXXIV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, SATURDAY, APRIL 8, 1933___________JPage_4 Nobody’s j Business By BRUCE HAMBY IOOKS like, those Trojans of J Southern California are going to win another championship. Their baseball team is sweep ing through the southern d i v i sion like a col umn of Cos sacks. Only Stanford and St. Mary’s re main to threat en their su premacy. The Frank Little U. S. C. track tcf’.m also is a cinch to clean up in all its meets this season. And as you will remember, the Trojans had a pretty fair football eleven last autumn. Memory brings to mind recollection of some rather one-sided encounters in which that eleven participated, and in all of them it was the killer, rather than the victim. The ace cf the U. S. C. baseball nine is a young pitcher named Capt. George (Bucks) Buchanan. He’s the Trojans’ Jerry Nemer of the diamond. Not very many of the boys get hold of George's de livery. Several major league man agers, including Joe McCarthy, have looked over his productions with favor. Even the great Rog ers Hornsby commented approv ingly on Buchanan’s work. And Rogers is quite a judge of pitchers. * * # Spring football is going strong at the University of Washington. The boys up in Seattle are bet ting their rent money on Jimmy Phelan’s 1933 presentation. The Huskies didn’t start so well last autumn, but by the end of the season they were a tough outfit. They held the dashing Trojans to a 0-to-6 score and swamped U. C. L. A., 19 to 0. Most of the Seattle enthusiasts look for Jimmy's team to pick up where it left off last year. One hundred and thuty seven suits have been issued at Washington this spring. That's a lot of football equipment. When I told that to one young fellow here his eyes bulged as round as soup plates. • * • A yeai ago this week Doc Spears left here. Not much news to that, but It brings back mem ories. Some of the boys never will forget “Doc.” Reports from the Middle-West say ho should have a good year at Wisconsin. ■ * * * Drink C'ullison has a fine young football prospect in this fellow Frank Michek from Scappoose high school. Frank’s got the po tentialities of a great blocking halfback. He’s fast and rugged and can handle himself in action. Also he can pass and punt and take his turn at “packing the mail.” Given some training and development, he might become an Oregon edition of Ernie Pinckert. * * * Duke Sir,airman U going to lie a good captain. He’s got the makings of a real field leader. He should be an invaluable asset to the baseball nine. Generally a good catcher holds up his team and that is what Duke probably will do this spring. * • • Dm loiiking forward to those Order of the “O" boxing bouts. Bernie Hughes and Frank Little should put on quite an exhibition. I also look for plenty of haymak ers when Bill Bowerman squares off with Speed Shepard of Oregon State. University Depot Holds Many Missing Articles The lost and found department In the University depot has one man's hat, and one slicker to offer since yesterday. Among articles turned in previously are hats, berets, pens, pencils, umbrellas, coals, books and gloves. Gloves of all kinds are to be found — men's gloves, women's gloves, gloves singly and in pairs. Among the books are copies of text-books for almost any course one can name. Students who have lost articles on or near the campus are re quested to call at the University depot and describe them. While they may not be there at the time, they very often come In within a day or two, and can be reclaimed then.

Expect Coaches To Recommend Rules Revisions Question Raised Over Difference In (tailing Fouls on Pivot Rule NEW YORK, APRIL 7.—(Spe cial ) The post or pivot play was expected to get a thorough going over by the rules committee of the National Association of Basket ball Coaches in a meeting held to settle on what changes, if any. they would recommend to the joint rules committee later this week. Most of the suggestions for rule changes made so far advocate re vising the rule that says a guard may not come within three feet of a pivot man when he is inside the free throw area. The question came up in an in formal discussion at a meeting of the board of directors yesterday. It was pointed out that in the west fouls were called concerning •this rule differently than in the east. The difference being that here the foul is generally called against the guard while in the east the pivot man is penalized. EUGENE FOUND TO BE NICE BY MATSUOKA (Continued from Page One) Manchuria gave him a profound knowledge of affairs in those coun tries, and he was selected by the foreign minister, Viscount Uchida, to speak for Japan as chief dele gate to the special assembly of the League of Nation. Matsuoka does not belong to the foreign service and does not know what the Japanese government will want him to do after he returns to that country, but thinks he may enter national political life there, leaving international politics be hind for the time being. CAMPUS CALENDAR (Continued from Page One) special dinner in honor of Frank Croswaith tonight at 0 o'clock. Reservations for tickets, which will cost 30c per plate, may be made by calling 1883 before 1 o'clock. According to Sterling Green himself, there will be an impor tant meeting of the Emerald staff Monday in room 103, Journalism. Green promises to be there and requests that the staff do as much. A patchwork waistcoat with a coin sewn under each patch has been presented by parishioners to the Rev. E. E. Earle of Bexley, England. There were 120 coins the total of which equalled about $112 in American money. Old Jupe Lets Go and Varsity Chased to Igloo Just when Coach Bill Reinhart had his varsity baseballers fairly well rounded into shape under un clouded skies, who should show up to hinder his progress but Old Jupe himself, with a pail full of rain that literally drenched Reinhart field and will put it out of commis sion for two more days. As a re sult the squad, which has risen in number to nearly forty players, is now forced to work out in the Ig loo. The delay will play all the more havoc with Reinhart's plans be cause he is already far behind many of the other teams in pre season drills. There are but three weeks left before the initial con test with Columbia university here April 28, and Reinhart must drill his proteges hard in order to have them in condition for the season's opener. For two days previous to yester day's downpour Reinhart worked his aspirants on the playing field in a stiff batting practice. There was decided lack of batting eyes on the part of several members of the squad. PROFESSORS IMPRESSED BUT NOT CONVINCED (Continued from Page One) year. He was, however, more real istic and much more strong-mind ed in his presentation than Koo. It was a complement to the facul ty and students that he gave a carefully written speech." Warren D. Smith, head of the geography department, gave a lengthy statement on the subject. "I thought Mr. Matsuoka's address was one of the most finished state ments I have heard made by any public official in a long time. His diction and enunciation were very pleasing. “Since I do not know the real moves behind the scenes in Man | ehuria, I can not be other than reserved in my acceptance of all his statements. Though I do not like Japan's methods, I have a certain measure of sympathy with her in this Manchurian situation | because I know how desperately hard-pressed she is for resources with which to maintain herself in dustrially. "Since we have refused our selves to accept the League of Na tions, I do not see how we can crit icize Japan too harshly.” Classified Ads (NEIGHBORHOOD BEAUTY I SHOP — Special — Permanent, $1.00 and up.

Friendly hall vs. Phi Gamma Delta. By BOB AVISON Sigma Phi Epsilon trounced the Theta Chi puff ball nine 10 to 4 in the only regulation soft ball game played yesterday afternoon. Sphinx Wishard, the towering end of football fame, practically talk ed the Theta Chi boys out of a vic tory. Sphinx connected with a safe blow in the first half of the sixth inning and it was this hit that started a five-run rally that put the game on ice for S. P. E. Les Hollenbeck was on the mound for the winners with Barry behind the plate. Bob Ferguson chucked a good game for the losers but lost the decision on account of numerous boots on the parts of his team-mates. Phi Gamma Delta and Sigma Chi will meet in the tennis fea ture of the intramural tourney under the direction of Mr. Hoy man next Monday. This should be a very fine match as both teams have gone through their present schedule undefeated. Chet Beede will probably play Bob Johnson in the singles match. Johnson, through his showing thus far in the tournament, will be favored to cop the match but it should be a close game. Les LaBarre and Fred Fisher will play the first doubles for the Sigma Chi net artists and probably will be opposed by Sandy Platt and Johnny Casey. Roily Rourke and Bill Hutchinson for the second doubles team for the Fiji's will play Ladd Sherman and Harlan Thompson of Sigma Chi. Another close contest is expect ed when S. P. E. and Sigma Pi Tau tangle. The winner of this game will play the Yeomen in the semi-finals. In the two golf matches held yesterday Alpha Tau Omega con quered Phi Kappa Psi 8 to 4, and Omega hall was downed by the Yeomen by a 9 to 3 count. A1 Davis, Bill Meissner, Bill Davis, and Don Rew made up the team that represented A. T. O. Ninth in Series of Law Speeches To Be Given The ninth of the series of talks being sponsored this year by the American Bar association under the general heading, “The Lawyer and the Public,” will be given over a nation-wide network of stations of the Columbia Broadcasting sys tem tomorrow at 3 p. m.

Sunder land of the University of Michigan law school on "Reforming the Law Through Legislation." The Oregon law school staff again urges that all students tune in at that time, for the lectures are both interest ing and instructive. Infirmary Empty The infirmary is still enjoying a dearth of patients. No one has been under treatment for two days, and none of the students appear to be on the verge of a serious illness, according to the in firmary nurses. However, they ex pect a few patients as a result of the cold weather yesterday. Ready for Major Openers . " 1 —— Chuck Klein, right, slugging outfielder of the Philly Nationals, talks over prospects with Gerry Nug'ent, center, and Burt Shotten, left, manager of the Quakers.

Reymers To Mix With Ex-Club Star Wednesday Night Norman Franklin, big Orange footballer, has been ruled out of his scheduled match with Mahr Reymers on the Order of the “O” smoker Wednesday night at the Igloo because he packed a little too much weight for the scrappy Oregon "barber.” This change will not deprive fans of a chance to see Reymers’ fists in action, how ever, as Butch Morse and Duke Shaneman journeyed to Corvallis yesterday and succeeded in obtain ing Bud Perkins, ex-Multnomah club fistic star, to mix with the Webfoot star. Bill Hayward, veteran track coach and trainer, will be the third man in the ring in each ofj the six bouts scheduled. Other celebrities who will risk their | shapely countenances in the! squared ring Wednesday include j Bernie Hughes, co-captain-elect of! the Webfoot grid forces for next | year; Dutch Clarke, husky Oregon tackle; Georgy Christensen, for-! mer Oregon grid star and more re cently of professional football fame; and Frank Little, bushy haired line-plunger from Oregon State.

Bill Hayward, Oregon track coach. This is the smallest frosh turnout in years. Both men who were counted on to form the nucleus of the frosh squad are not in suits. These two men are Walter Hopson, who in his prep days at Los Angeles Poly technic high school covered the century in 9.8 seconds and the fur long in 21.6, and Willy Torrence, whose high school track record at LaGrande was outstanding. Hopson Best in Years Hopson, considered by Hayward as one of the best sprint prospects to enter this institution in recent years, is ineligible due to scholas tic difficulties. Torrence, who features in the hurdles, javelin, and high jump, is out with an injured back, received playing frosh football last fall. He has not completely recovered but there is a slight possibility that the tall, colored boy will don a suit later in the season. At present the hopes of the team rests on the shoulders of Howard Patterson, former Grant high star, and Bill Paddock, also of Grant, and Robert Ludington, stocky distance man from Cres well. Patterson is developing into quite a sprinter and is being count ed on for several points this sea son. He may garner a few more in the broad jump. Small, but ambitious, Bill Pad dock is being looked on to uphold the honor Of the neophyte cinder men in the distances. Meets this year will be held with Oregon State rooks, one a relay meet and the other a regular meet. Also telegraphic meets will be held with the northwestern ocl lege freshman teams. Other meets may be arranged later. K matinee tvery Day at i t*. «#. X uontinuous S»T. SUN.
