Webfoot court
stars are once
more learning the tine points un
der the direction of Bill Reinhart.
Spring practice started Iasi
week and will continue with three

workouts will be held. More thar

and more are expected to turn

regular attendance is not compul

Reinhart plans to build his 193d
club around the seven returning
lettermen—Olinger, Spook Robert
son, Bob Miller, Jim Watts, Red
Rotenberg, Ralph Terjeson and
Bill Berg. In addition there will
be Roland Rourke and Ed Kunklc
from last season’s reserves and
Clen Sanford from the yearling

Reinhart claims to have a new
“find” in Ron Gemmell, a transfei
from LaGrande normal school
Gemmell is a star performer ir
both baseball and basketball. This
spring he is taking his turn witli
the regular Webfoot pitching
prospects. According to wore
from the playing field he has
plenty on the ball and may lane
a regular assignment on the var
sity. As a basketball player Rein
hart believes he will provide
plenty of competition for a per
manent forward position. He is
fast and has a good shooting eye

Wet* » uiusen
anu 11 i n u t n
ba.seball squad
yesterday, when
Ike Donin’s
Brewers defeated
the Stone Drys,
led by Ed Charles,
in a peppery five
inning struggle,
0 to 0.
The Brewers,
with Ike Donin
holding down the
pitching assignment, were com
posed of inexperienced players,
most of them out for their first
year. With Donin’s slants proving
quite bewildering to the losers, the
Brewers landed on Charles in the
third inning and went straight
through the batting order, amass
ing a total of five runs.
Ivan Elliot, at shortstop, started
off the inning with a nice two
bagger to deep center field. Whit
aker hit to short, and on a field
er’s choice both runners were safe,
with Elliot stopping at third. Don
in walked, arid Clausen beat out a
hit to short, scoring Elliot. “Tuffy"
McCully then hit to third and
Whitaker and Donin scored on a
bad throw home. Richardson then
singled through second tallying
Clausen and McCully for the final
runs of the inning, for Charles
bore down and forced Beard, Vail,
and Wishard to ground out in or
der.
Ducks Okay in Field
Although a bit wild with their
throws at times, the Webfoots
looked fine on fielding the ball.
Louis Garbarino, at third for the
Drys, Hiade a sensational one
handed '-top of a hot grounder
down the base line, ticketed for
a sure hit, and recovered it in
time for a Torce-out at second. El
liot, playing shortstop in place of
the veteran Chatterton, besides
starring at bat, worked faultlessly
afield. All are sophomores.
Nearly half the total aspirants
for the 1933 Webfoot edition were
found to be ineligible. This proved
a severe blow to both the Web
foot’s chances thi3 season, and al
so to their coach. Probably the
loss that will be felt the most will
be that of Don “Lefty" Weed, star
, pitcher. With a year’s experience
last year Weed was counted upon
to win many games Lhis season.
Itcinhart Changes Lineup
Yesterday’s lineups were as fol
lows: Brewers Donin, pitcher;
Whitaker, catcher; Wishard, lb;
Vail, 2b; Elliot, ss; Richardson,
, 3b; Beard, If; Clausen, cf; and
McCully, rf.
For the Stone Drys: Charles,
, pitcher; Shaneman, catcher; Ches
ter, lb; Hoag, 2b; Sears, ss; Gab
arino, 3b; Hill, if; Green, cf; and
McKelligen, rf.
During the last two innings
I Reinhart changed the Brewer’s
lineup a bit, sending Hartley Knee
| land, a left-hander, in to replace
Donin. He pitched in fine form, al
I lowing but one hit, a three-bagger
I by Garbarino. He died on third,
.! however. Other replacements in
the lineup were: Parker, lb; Lucas,
2b; Reinhart, If; Van Dyne, cf;
and Morse, rf.
Practice tilts such as these are
on tap every day possible until
. the first game the 28th, against
the Columbia university nine.
would be the danger of baffling
1 the Northwestern team as well as
the opponents. It seems to me
it would be very easy for a player
i to become confused with tackles,
halfbacks and ends wandering
, about at random.

The First Step
The first consideration in earing for your eyes is
to be sure your vision is normal.
The second step is to protect your eyes from glare.
If your vision is normal you should select one of the
many tints of sun goggles and if you need glasses have
them ground in Soft Lite—the glare-protecting lens.

With New Plays
Callison Contemplates Making Of
Changes In Lineup For
1033 Campaign
Midway through the fourth week
of spring practice, Prink Calli
son.'s husky football aspirants
have at last mastered the intri
cate plays that they have been
working on and arc having some
great scrimmage sessions every
afternoon.
Two teams have been turning
out regularly and Callison has un
covered some new material to
strengthen his line-up when the
j fall season begins. Most of the
] "finds” are in the line. Dwight
I Nielson, husky tackle on last fall’s
frosh team, looks like an able un
! derstudy, or running mate, for
"Biff" Nilsson, veteran of two sea
sons. Rill Lundin will be giving
the guards a run for their money,
as will Hugh McCredie, a made
over fullback. In the backfield
! Whit Arey seems to be the shin
ing light. He plays left half.
Regular practice will continue
for the rest of this week and all
of next, and will be followed by
several weeks of pass practice—
offense and defense. Callison plans
on having several sets of ends,
centers, and backs out, and they
will do nothing but receive and
j knock down the spirals thrown by
dead-eye passers.

Varsity Dash Material;
Frosh Look Good
(Editor’s note: This is the
second of a series of seven ar
ticles on Oregon’s chances on
the track and field this spring.)
By MALCOLM BAUER
Webfoot sprint prospects do not
look any too promising right now,
but Colonel Bill Hayward can be
pretty sure of at least one point
winner in each of the two dash
events, he speedster upon whose
shoulders will fill the responsibilty
of adding to the Duck poirit total
in the 100 and 220 yard dashes is
Paul Starr, two-year captain of
Oregon’s track squad, and the
ranking sprinter of the Pacific
[ Northwest. •
Last year Starr finished the
season undefeated, and climaxed a
successful year with double victory
in the 100 and 200 meter events
in the Northwest qualifying rounds
for the United States Olympic
team. He doesn't seem to have lost
any of his speed this spring, and
in the handicap events two weeks
ago overcame big disadvantages
in both the 75 and 150 yard dashes
to break the tape in'both events.
Schomp Looks Good
Ralph Schomp, who last spring
transferred from Willamette Uni
versity, will probably run next to
Starr on the varsity sprint squad.
Schomp was the speedster who
turned in two first places in the
novice meet early this spring. Hay
ward is busy developing his run
ning form, and he may count for
some much needed points in the
short events.
A sophomore, Wayne Jamison,
hase shown vast improvement over
his last year’s marks in both
sprint events. He is an exception
ally fast starter, and his best
times are made in the shorter race.
In the handicap meet, however, he
clung to an 8-yard advantage in
the 150 yard preliminaries to win
his heat in 15.6, ast time for an
early season performance.
Parke Has Drive
Bob Parke, stocky California
i sprinter, about completes the list
of promising dash men. He has
plenty of drive, and is especially
good at the 100 yard distance.
Things are much brighter in the
frosh sprint lineup. Walter Hop
son, sensational speedster devel
oped in the south, heads a quartet
of first class Duckling dash artists
that are capable of holding their
own in varsity competition. Hop
son has done the century below the
I 10 second mark.
Howard Patterson, ex-Grant
high flash, Dick Mears, and
Charles Rickabaugh make up the
group that promises to stack up
points for the Oregon yearlings in
both short events.
I swinging ball should have been
! evident—but rather, it seemed to
j be going the opposite way. “Some
one touched the wire!’’ asserted
‘ those students who had been
[ guarding the table under the iron
ball in the basement. "You kicked
I the table out of place!” responded
those whose responsibility it was
to prevent anyone from touching
the wire.
There really wasn't any answer.
The ball was just being contrary.
“The earth's going the wrong
way. It’s rotating backwards,”
1 said one in disgust. “We're not
wrong—it’s the earth.”
All in all, it was a very diffi
cult experiment. Maybe Professor
Norris’s class will have to take
the rotation of the earth on faith
after all.

Who’s Who
—in—
Webfoot
Athletics
By JACK MILLER
Mrs. Shaneman’s little boy Le
Roy, or more commonly known as
“Duke”, who will captain and
catch for Bill Reinhart’s Webfoot
baseball team this year was born
in Reading, Pa., on March 28, 1907.
Later on the Shaneman clan
moved on to Coatsville, Pa., where
“Duke” went to high school. In
prep school Shaneman partici
pated in football three years, play
ing guard and end; in baseball for
four years, playing catcher, and
was an All-Eastern Pennsylvania
forward in basketball, in which he
participated four years.
After graduating from high
school in 1927, “Duke” followed
Horace Greely’s advice and came
west to live with his brother in
Tacoma. Here the Webfoot dia
mond captain made a name for
himself playing sandlot ball, and
caught the eye of Bill Reinhart,
who induced him to come to Ore
gon.
Shaneman entered the Webfoot
institution in the fall of 1929 and
participated in frosh basketball
and baseball. In his sophomore
year the “Duke” led the league
with a .387 batting average. Duke
hit the label on the horse hide for
a .315 last spring. The native
Pennsylvanian looks forward to a
prosperous season for the Oregon
nine.
Shaneman is a business admin
istration major and hopes to get
connected' in the paper mill busi
ness with his brother in Tacoma,
after he receives his sheepskin in
June.
