Page 4 VOLUME XXXV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 1934 5 Ball Teams Are Unbeaten In Two Tilts SAE, Sigma Nil, SAM, Sigma Chi, ATO Win Sigma Hall Ot is Softball Vic tory In I.ast Night’s Tourney; Games Monday With the first week of kittenball play finished, five teams emerge unbeaten in two games played and three teams unbeaten in the one game scheduled. The five outdoor “indoor” teams which were uncon quered in two games were: Alpha Tau Omega with a total of 17 runs to its credit; Sigma Alpha Epsilon with a total of 18 runs; Sigma Nu and Sigma Alpha Mu, both with 20 runs; and Sigma Chi with a total of 35 runs for the two games. Unbeaten teams, scheduled for only one game in the first week’s play, were Chi Psi, Delta Tau Del ta, and Phi Delta Theta. Last night’s piay-off follows; Sammies, 9; Omega Hall, 1 The Sigma Alpha Mil nine out played the Omegas even more than the 9 to 1 score shows. Les Gold schmidt again stole the evening’s pitching honors. He started the game by striking out four Omega men. Yes, four. The first fanee got away, however, when the Sam my catcher dropped the ball on the third strike and the batter made first. In seven innings Pitcher Goldschmidt aced 12 batters. Fol lowing Morrie Saffron’s example, three other Sammies -Rosenfeld, Goldschmidt, and A. Miller — knocked out home runs. For Ome ga hall Bob Kidder, pitcher, and Mockford, catcher, turned in a fair game. Wendell Moore scored Ome ga’s one-and-only. Sigma Nu, 9; Pi Kap, 8 In a game which hung in bal ance till the last minute, the Sig ma Nu snake-charmers downed the Pi Kap team 9 to 8. The game started out looking swell for the Pi Kappa Alpha boys, when Cuppo letti stepped to the plate for a homer scoring himself and two runners. But catching that old Valley Forge spirit as evidenced by the bare-footed Bob Goodall with his toe bandaged by a violet handkerchief, the Sigma Nus start ed a scoring spree of their own. Sobey (C), Richardson and Phil lips (P), and Mashek (lb) starred for Sigma Nu. A. T .O., 11; Phi Psi, 9 Gib Olinger of basketball fame | smacked the kittenball squarely and it bounced off A.T.O. Pitcher Stranix’s -red head, and while the ball rolled out into the field, sprint ed for a two-bagger. This was only one of the exciting moments in the A.T.O.- Phi Psi nip-und-tuck af fair. For the A.T.O.’s Ben Grout at first and A1 Davis at second played good ball. But the Alpha Tail Omega’s victory was, to a great part, due to the good field ing of Ed Jacobs, DeGraff, and Whiteley, who rarely let a fly get by them. Wellington (P) and Har graves (C) starred for the Phi Psi nine, while Bill Van Damni (pro nounced “dahm”) showed how he could bat either right-handed or left-handed. S. A. E., 7; Alpha Hall, 8 Two teams, each confident of victory, met to gain a new respect for each other. Alpha hall took the lead in the first three innings with runs from Saslavsky and Whetzel and a homer from D. Chrones. S.A.E. made their big killing in the fourth Inning with four runs and a homer from Doug Ward. At the last of the seventh S. A. E. came to bat, the score tied six up. Then with two men out and Ward poised on third, Lieu alien stepped confidently to the plate and knocked out a one base hit to bring Ward in with the win ning run. Alpha hall battery: Whetzel and Michek. Sigma Alpha Epsilon battery: Eva and C. Johns. Sigma Hull, 10; 1). V., S Sigma hull won an easy victory over Delta Upsilon last night. Pel ton, right fielder for the hall nine, copped the hitting laurels with a perfect record of four hits in four times at bat, three of the hits be ing converted to runs. The Sigma battery of Blantz and Little func tioned smoothly, while Bikman, at first base, managed to handle all the throws that came his way. D. U. had little to offer. Vonderheit (P) and Whiting iC) were the on ly two consistent players. Vonder heit, the one-man D. LT. team, scored two of his teams three runs and fanned eight of the Sigma hall batters. Sigma Chi, 14; Tlieta C'hl, 1 Sigma Chi continued its cham pionship march unhindered last night by defeating Theta Chi by a one-sided score of 14 to 1. An in teresting side light of the game was the pitching duel between Wheelock of Sigma Chi and Wood ward of the Theta Chi. Wheelock All-Campus Tourneys Slow Up as Entrants Declared Ineligible The all-campus tennis singles schedule has been drawn up and posted at the gym. Those who have signed up for the singles tourney are advised to consult this schedule. Eut, according to Earl Bou shey, when the names of those players who were declared in eligible for intramural and all campus competition because of varsity activities were stricken from the entry blanks, there were not enough names left with which to draw up a schedule in all-campus tennis doubles, golf, and horseshoes. Therefore, those who are interested in holding non - varsity tournaments in these sports are urged to go to the gym and enter their names on the entrance sheets, which have been left posted there. struck out six, and Woodward five. However, Wheelock had a lot better backing than did the Theta Chi pitcher, for John Ken dall at first, Ladd Sherman at short, and Mel Johnson in the field, gave Yankee stadium performanc es. Theta Chi’s stars included Pitcher Woodward, Catcher Walo, and Fielder McKinnow, who ac counted for Theta Chi’s one run. HERBERT AMES SAYS GERMANY IN LEAGUE (Continued from Page One) league,” remarked Ames “Japan is like a repentant burlar who wants to come back and keep all his swag!” Ames gave, in the brief space of about 50 minutes, a history of the League of Nations, particularly in its relatoins with Germany, from the time of the first disarmament conference third session which be gan March 16, 1933, to the pres ent. Significant was his discussion of the events of the week before the second disarmament confer ence was scheduled to begin—a week climaxed by the bombshell of Germany’s retirement from the conference at a moment when the bureau, or “steering committee," believed that it had evolved a con vention which would prove the ba sis of a really effective solution of the disarmament problem. Clause Basis of Objection Germany’s objections were based on a clause providing "that no re armament of Germany should be begun, nor should the heavily armed powers commence to reduce, unless and until, an (international) permanent disarmament commis sion with full powers of supervi sion and control shall have been created and shall be working sat isfactorily.” It was but a week later that Hit ler, after vain attempts to nego tiate individually with Italy and France, wrote his official with drawal, demanding genuine and immediate "equality” and real and substantial disarmament of the heavily armed powers. What Ger many really wants, however, ac cording to Sir Herbert, is to re arm, to make trade agreements with Austria, and perhaps even to get some of her colonies back. Nazi Measures Forbidden Then, too, Germany’s seat at the League of Nations' council table was none too comfortable follow ing Hitler's rise. Nazi terrorist measures were forbidden in Upper Silesia and in Saar basin, Hitler ism in Austria was declared against, a league charitable organ ization was formed to aid Jewish, communist, liberal, and other refu gees from Germany and even Hit ler's right to persecute the Jews in his own state was denied by the league, on the grounds that they are a religious minority, protected under all 14 of the leagues trea ties. One effect of his consolidation of the German nation which Hitler failed to foresee was that it also would consolidate his neighbors even peace-loving Switzerland vot ing $50,000,000 to defend her pass es against the Nqzi menace. Russia May Join Ames made it clear that it is only through the League of Na tions that the problem can be set tled. At the close of his address, he quoted from a speech made by Franklin D. Roosevelt at the Woodrow Wilson birthday banquet last December. In his speech the president praised the league and its activities, concluding that, "it must remain.” Almost half an hour was devot ed to the question-and-answer pe riod. Of particular interest was Sir Herbert’s statement that he be lieved Russia might join the league within a year or two. There is no reason why she should not, he said, for she has fulfilled her interna tional obligations better than any other nation and has a stable gov ernment. She has non-aggression pact swith every nation on her bor ders except Japan, and has none with Japan only because that na 1 tion refused her offer. Washington’s Baseball Hopes Rise With Addition of Hal Lee Balance of Squad Boasts Good Prospects (Editor’s note—This is the third in a series of articles writ ten hy Bill Aetzel, Emerald sports writer, analyzing the prospects of conference baseball teams for this season.) The chances of the Washington Husky baseball nine as a confer ence threat were materially in creased this week when Hal Lee, basketball captain during the past season, and two-stripe veteran fly chaser, reported to Coach Tubby Graves for active duty. Lee’s hit ting strength will add tremen dously to the Huskies’ offensive brigade and his experience will tend to steady the team which boasts a number of new faces this spring. Graves has a veteran infield this year led by Captain Joe Weber, regular guard on the Husky bas ketball champions, who holds down the first sack. At second base is Uhlman, while veteran Jackie Hanover, also a member of the maple-court crown holders, has a strangle hold on the shortstop po sition. Bob O’Brien is the regular man at the hot corner, rating ahead of Norm Wells by virtue of his hitting ability. Reserves able to step into the lineup at any time include Dick Baker, hard-hitting understudy for Captain Weber; John Hunter and George Kambe, who are ready to break into ac tion should second-baseman Uhl man falt|r; Fred Firstenberg, a strong batting sophomore who is trying to oust Hanover; and Wells at third. At least seven outfielders should see action this year. Hal Lee, a fixture in the center garden, is being flanked by Bob McFarlane in ' left, and Bill McClain, who guards the right field fence. Bill Rockhill, Bill Dickie, Gil Leien decker and Si Boulton are other outfielders ready to break in at any time. Coach Graves has a large pitch ing staff this year with several of the men of equal strength in the box. Leading candidates are Paul Marlowe and A1 O'Brien, right handers, and Jack Daly, Rudy En quist and Peter Dickie, southpaws, jjor reserve duty Louis Budnick, tiurley De Roin, football veteran, Mike Antoncich, and Jim Greely ale available. There are plenty of catchers in the Husky camp and they by no means form the weak spot on the Purple-and-Gold nine. Roy Mar lowe, Spence Stokes, Mitch Gas parovick, Homer Bergren, and Roger Dawes complete the roster of backstops. Washington meets Oregon here May 11 and 12 In a two-game se ries. OM Editions Secured By Reference Library Old editions of the Commercial and Financial Chronicle, dating back to 1838, have been secured by the reference library in the business administration building. The magazines will form a source of material from which stu dents may secure facts and fig ures for thesis and research proj ects. The Commercial and Finan cial Chronicle is the leading busi ness magazine in the United States, according to H. V. Hoyt, dean of the business school. DUCK BASEBALL TEAM TO PLAY GAME TODAY (Continued from Page One) a stiff arm, Maury Van Vliet, and Mike Hunt will open in the outer gardens. Eddie Vail, utility in fielder, and Bunny Butler and Earle Vossen, outfielders, may also break into the lineup. Little is known of the strength of the opposing nine, but Spec Keene’s teams have the reputation of being tough competition.

FRENCH POLICY SEEN AS FEAR OF INVASION (Continued from Page One) 10, 1925, when Germany was ad mitted into the League, Ames des cribed it as the ‘‘most thrilling oc casion of my life,” and commented on the two coincidences of the Ser bian chairman welcoming Ger many^ and the date being the twelfth anniversary of the stop ping of the Germans’ first great drive on Paris. With excerpts from the speeches of Briand and Stresemann, Ames illustrated the feeling of friendli ness which prevailed at the session, and the fine association of the two delegates. Boyer Introduces Speaker “The following year was an era of fulfillment for Germany and concessions on the part of France, ending with the death of Strese mann in 1929,” concluded the speaker. President C. V. Boyer introduced Ames, and announced a series of short addresses which the Canadian is to make to various classes on the campus today, and to the faculty club at luncheon this noon. Sir Herbert will also deliver several other lectures over the weekend. A public forum was conducted by Ames after his morning lecture, at which he answered and dis cussed questions asked him by the audience. “Patronize Emerald Advertisers."

Professor Gives Government Talk Lo cal governments, although they have been accused of a great deal of corruption during the past years, have nevertheless done a more thorough job of cleaning up than either the state or national governments, ..believes ..Calvin Crumbaker, professor of econom ics and chairman of the bureau of municipal research and service, as expressed in a radio talk Wednes day night. Crumbaker spoke on the sub ject of “Research in Municipal Government.” His talk is the sec ond of a series sponsored by the League of Oregon Cities in an ef fort to enlighten the public as to the problems of city government. Government is, according to Crumbaker, facing a changing sit uation, and must use scientific methods in meeting its problems. For this purpose groups like the League of Oregon Cities have been organized. ^ "Patronize Emerald Advertisers.” | You Can Depend on the Man Who Advertises times out of ten you will find that the man who advertises is the man who most willingly returns your money if you are not satisfied. lie has too much at stake to risk losing your trade or your confidence.

Cinder Trials Will Be Free } To Everyone Nowland lo Run in High Hurdles Event Bowerman Will Meet Patterson And Schultz in 440 Yard Clash For the benefit of those who are unable because of financial rea sons, and for those who have not bought their student body cards, the gate to Hayward field will be thrown open to one and all Satur day afternoon at 2 o’clock for the varsity-froSh trial track meet. This gesture is being made so that the students and townspeople can get a taste of some of the thrills that may be theirs by seeing such meets as the Oregon-Oregon State relays, April 28; the meet with Washington May 12; and finally the Northwest conference meet June 2. A special feature of the meet Saturday will be Fred “Crash” Nowland, who scampers over the high hurdles with such reckless abandon, and does an occasional carioca with a half twist over the high jump bar, performing in the high hurdles and giving the other competitors a few yards advan tage. Knocks Over Hurdles During the early part of the season Nowland hit so many of the hurdles and plowed up so much of the track that it was necessary to give the entire track a new coat of cinders. In fact, Fred went down out of control so many times, that the moniker “Crash” has been given him. Of late, however, the tall hurdler has been getting over with never a tumble. Glenn Palm, fast stepping fresh man hurdler, and Art Dudley and Arne Lindgren of the varsity will be out to furnish opposition for the much improved Nowland. The 440 will be a good race. Bowerman has drawn the scratch position, and will give away va rious distances according to how far he has beaten other 440 men in previous races. Opponents Listed Men who will do their best to overtake him include: Marshall Wright, Bob Thomas, who ran number one for the frosh last year, Howard Patterson, who gave Bow erman such a thrill last Saturday, Ralph Schomp, and the freshmen who are headed by Gil Schultz, Short Freeman, and Mahatma Ghambi. How many people know how to watch a track meet ? There will be no answer to that, but there will be an explanation on how to see the most, in tomorrow’s sports section.
