VOLUME XXXV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 1934 Page 4 Beta Theta Pi Still Leaders InDonutRace Independents Are Close Competitors Wrestling Gives Veonirn 1'oints; Three Sports Remit in on Calendar With only three sports remain ing on the intramural sports cal endar, Beta Theta Pi still heads the list for the all year point to tals. However, only 22 points sep arate them from their nearest competitors, the Yeomen. Gaining the 100 point award in the wrestling competition, the in dependent men have jumped from fourth place while passing up Phi Delta Theta and Sigma Phi Epsi lon to settle into second position right behind the leaders. Neither the Betas, Phi Delts, or S.P.E.’s picked up a single counter during mat events. Kappa Sigma, with 60-point gain, pushed the Phi Delts into fifth place while further down the list Sigma Chi, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and Sherry Ross also improved their position in the race. Sixty points were also awarded to the Freemen, a group representing unaffiliated students not on the list of Yeomen competi tors. Three Sports Remain The three remaining sports on the donut card are softball, golf, and tennis. These activities will open after the beginning of spring term. The Betas have managed to hold their point lead since the opening competition and have never been headed. They completely monopo lized fall term sports by grabbing the titles in water polo, swimming, and "A” and “B" basketball. Dur ing the past term, the Yeomen have started their drive for the championship by winning handball, wrestling, and “B” volleyball. The “A” volleyball crown was cap tured by the Phi Delts.

The “Abraham and Isaac” was first given by the bar ber's guild and later by the parch miners and bookbinders. The guilds often presented their plays on a guild wagon, which was a miniature theater on wheels with a double deck, the lower deck surrounded by curtains for the dressing room, and the upper deck used as a stage. Often a second level would be built on the stage as a place for God. In this case the devil would be below, at times coming out of hell which was rep resented by huge gaping dragon jaws. The people of that time did not consider having God on the stage trayed him in white leather with long white hair and whiskers. Con trarily, the devil would appear all in black. The “Abraham and Isaac” being given here was first played at Brome in the latter part of the 15th century. This play is one of the most famous of old English Miracle plays, perhaps because it is one of the few which contains the real elements of drama and which succeeds in presenting char acters as individuals.

Tommy Lough ran, Max Baer, Primo Camera, Steve Hamas, Max Schmeling, King Levinsky. According to many experts Steve Hamas is the logical man to fight Maxy Baer, the gay caballero, next summer? The winner of that fight could knock the crown off the head of the titleholder no matter who he may be after tonight’s fight in Miami between C'ar nera and Laughran, some fight critics aver.
