VOLUME XXXV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1934 Page 4 Fast Bouts To Feature Order - *-— Of 'O’ Smoker Tomorrow Night Mit and Mat Artists Of OSC and Oregon Set for Igloo Ring Grid Stars Draw Spotlight in Week’s Major Campus Sports Event; ‘Pigging’ in Order Bv DON ODDS and ED GOODNOTTGTI Champions and “iron, man’’ of' gridiron fame will sock honors in the squared circle Friday night when University of Oregon fistieuffers and hone benders will meet Oregon State leather pushers and grapplers at McArthur court starting at 7 :.‘50 p. m. under the auspices of the Order of the “O.” Heading the list of boxers on the card are Frank Little and Bill Goodwin, who will meet in a feature heavyweight clash. Little is a former 0. S. C. fullback, lie appeared in the Pacific Coast amateur championship bouts last summer, and is reported to have received professional offers. Bill Goodwin was a tackle on the Washington State Cougars’ championship football team of 1930. He is rated as one of the outstanding amateur heavyweights in the Pacific North west. The 175-pound go will also feat ure ex-football stars. Bernie Hughes, co-captain and center of the title-holding Oregon eleven, is to meet Russ Acheson, Beaver backfield man. This may be Hughes’ last contest for Oregon before turning professional. Bob by Parke, Webfoot quarterback, will trade blows with J. Kenna of the Orange stable in a 165-pound mix. Franklin to Show The middleweight bout promises to steal the show. In this go Alan Wilson, frosh end, will square off against Norman “Red” Franklin, all-American member of the Or ange "iron immortales.” Both men are reported to be hard punchers and clever boxers. Franklin won the intramural crown at Corvallis with a clean kayo in the first round, while Wilson was the most spectacular boxer on the intramu ral card hero last term, winning his weight class. A slugger and a clever boxer will mix in the welterweight go. Comet Gibson of Oregon will pit his boxing against the dynamiting left hook of Jack Lyons. Gibson is probably the most experienced man on the Oregon roster. Lyons was knocked down in the O.S.C. intramurals, but got to his feet and won the bout. Perldns to Fight Donnelly Dave Perkins of the Beaver camp will meet Max Donnelly in the lightweight division. Perkins knocked out his man in jig-time in the Beaver intramural car. He is clever, he hits hard and is expe rienced. While lacking Perkins’ experience in the ring, Donelly is a fast comer in the sock trade. Football players will also pre dominate in the mat portion of the card.

McClurg and his opponent in the O.S.C. intra murals tore out one of the ring posts and Nielson, who weighs a good part of a ton, ought to keep the Orangeman busy during the bout. Johnson to Meet Stein Chuck Johnson, the strong man of the Oregon squad, will meet one of O.S.C.'s finest, K. Stein, in the 175-pound event. Johnson has been lightheavy title holder for the past two years and threw his man in a bout with the University of Wash ington three years ago. Bill Pat ilck, one of the well known twin athletes of Oregon State, will meet either Joe Kenner or Elton Owen in the 165-pound division. Renner is the intramural crown wearer in this weight, while Owen has had considerable expe rience in mat work. It is not def initely decided which of these men will represent Oregon in the bout. .■Mountain Given Edge Tom Mountain, the ace of the l Webfoot wrestling string, will lit erally tangle with the other bat tling Patrick twin, Bob, in the middleweight class. Mountain is considered one of the best amateur middleweights in the northwest. Patrick is rated high in Corvallis grappling circles. If Kay Clapp’s injured back im proves sufficiently by Friday night, J. Herbieh will be provided with plenty of competition and the fans with plenty of action. Clapp is one of tIre veterans of the Oregon mat team which trounced the Washing ton Huskies three years ago. If Clapp cannot compete, his place will be taken by Bob Ludington, sophomore miler. Ludington is a lightweight, but has been able to hold his own with much heavier men. Changes May Be .Made Ludington is scheduled to meet A. de Bernarbis, but his place will be filled by Bryan Ryan if Bob ! substitutes for Clapp. Ryan has ! reigned supreme in the feather weight division at Oregon for two years and should make a satisfac tory substitute for Ludington. De Bernarbis is reported to be a plen ty clever wrestler. The wrestling bouts will prob rounds.

Mat Crowns Captured by Seven Men Goodnough and Roberts Give Exhibition Yeomen Wrestlers Cop Majority Of Titles; Receive Point Award Seven campus matmen reign su preme today as champions of their respective weight divisions follow ing the completion yesterday of the combined all-campus and in tramural wrestling tournament at the men’s gym. The grapplers who came through with the necessary victories to cop the title in their class are: Heavyweight- Dwight Nielsen. 175-pound—Chuck Johnson. 165-pound—Joe Renner. 155-pound Tom Mountain. 145-pound—Ed Goodnough. 135-pound Bob Ludington. 125-pound—Bryan Ryan. Exhibition Follows Following the regular matches Ed Goodnough and Mart Roberts put on an exhibition battle which included everything from pulling hair to double toeholds. Both men clamped on and broke various professional holds with Roberts opening with an Indian death lock and later on a Boston crab while Goodnough slipped out of these and flipped his opponent around with a whip wrist lock. The ref eree's decision, which of course was a draw, received a lusty round of boos from the crowd. In a battle between last fall’s grid stars Nielsen grabbed the heavyweight crown when he won from Terjeson in the last minute of their match. Terjeson had opened the battle with an advan tage when he slammed his oppo nent into the ropes. From then on, however, it was all Nielsen’s match and finally, after a long session of hard mixing, he pinned Camera Gets Spectacular Crash An alert cameraman was on the job when this racing car hurtled the guard rail in a spectacular crash and dropped out of sight. Roy Itussing, who is in the driver’s seat, emerged with no more injury than a cut lip. The accident occurred at Ascot Speedway, Los Angeles. Terjeson to the canvas with a simple pin hold. Elving, who had previously de feated both Nielsen and Vander Zanden, was scheduled to be Ter jeson's opponent but was called on to give a blood transfusion yester day morning and was therefore unable to participate. The clash for the 175-pound title was settled sooner than any other match when Johnson gained a victory over Koken after only a minute and 30 seconds of com petition. Johnson was riding Ko ken from the opening of the bat tle and pinned him with a half nelson. Renner Wins Renner gained the judges’ deci sion over LaBarre in a clash that required the full six-minute time. The victor had the advantage all through the match, although near the end LaBarre almost caught him in a mixup near the ropes. The initial bout on the after noon’s program, between McKay and Ryan, opened fast with Mc Kay grabbing the first time ad vantage after a few unsuccessful tackles by Ryan. However, after a referee’s position with McKay on the mat Ryan came back to up set his opponent with a sudden fall. Both boys still appeared to be fresh despite over four minutes of fast action. Rough Match Morris started fast in his clash with Ludington for the 135-pound crown but weakened after three minutes of rough mixing to lose the match when Ludington turned him over and pinned him with a half nelson pin hold. The veteran Mountain had little trouble against Holmes and gained a fall on his less experienced op ponent with a well applied half nelson and crotch hold. Holmes put up a good match, however, and carried Mountain three min utes and 40 seconds before losing. Oregon Quintet in Second Place Tie With Beavers Webfoots Get Five Wins In Last Six Starts By BILL AETZEL Concluding- a successful road trip with their third win out of four conference starts, the Oregon vveoioot quintet moved into a tie with Oregon State for second place in the con ference stand ings. Coach Bill Reinhart’s stal warts won the ( last five out of | six games, after | a prolonged los- ( ing streak had uiingtT snovea tnem momeniai uy lu me cellar. Idaho, a 'couple of weeks ago considered a championship threat while resting in third spot, now is sole possessor of the bottom rung in the ladder, having dropped five of its last six games to conference opponents. Cougars Out of Cellar The Washington State Cougars, consistently low in the standings, rose a notch out of the bottom po sition, remaining idle while the Vandals were losing the pair of games to Oregon. The Pullman boys divided the series -with the Webfeet played before the latters’ invasion of Moscow. Washington, enjoying a strangle hold on the conference title, en tertains Washington State in the last two games for either team this weekend and .aren’t seriously considering an upset at the hands of their rivals from across the Cascades, although if such a thing were to happen it would simply raise the stock of the disappoint ing Cougars who were considered in pre-season dope circles as one of the likely wearers of the 1934 hoop crown. The Huskies have the title sewed up, win, lose, or draw. The remainder of the teams are idle this weekend, winding up the season a week later when Oregon and Oregon State battle it out for the second spot in a home-and liome series, and Washington State and Idaho renew their, feud which will likely name the cellar candi date for this year. Willie Jones in the first game, and Captain Gib Olinger in the second, were the main threats for the Webfoots. A brilliant field goal by the Oregon captain in the clos ing seconds of play snatched cer tain victory from the Vandals. Grenier Stars for Idaho Grenier, probably the outstand ing center in the conference, played his consistently good ball throughout the series. Both games were close throughout and tough ones to lose. The main worry to Coach Ed mundson and his men at the pres ent is just who their southern op ponent is going to be. At the pres ent, the California Bears and Southern California are tied for the lead with only two games left on either team’s schedule. Uclans Pull Upset The Bears virtually had the title in their hip pocket a week ago, when along came a surprise which completely upset even the most skeptical dopesters’ predictions. None other than the admittedly weak Ucla Bruins who were prov ing a setup to the other teams in previous games trounced Coach Nibs Prices’ boys in an overtime struggle. This weekend, the Bruins tack le the Trojans in a final two-game series at Los Angeles, and Cali fornia meets Stanford in the tradi tional series of the bay region. Barring another upset in these finales, a playoff series between the leaders will be necessary to determine the opponent for Wash ington in the Pacific coast cham pionship series to be played in Cal ifornia.
