Sammies Are Other
Winning Teams
Since a special military parade
is to be held on Monday evening,
which the majority of the fresh
men and sophomores, ana many of
the upperclassmen must attend,
Earl Boushey, supervisor of intra
mural athletics, has announced
that the softball schedule will be
changed accordingly. Softball
games scheduled for Monday night
will be played Wednesday night
instead. The Tuesday games will
stand unchanged, according to the
original schedule.
In the games last night several
teams took a tumble while others
began to pull away from their
competitors towards the league
championships. Sigma Chi took
the margin of lead in League I.
The Fiji nine snatched the halo
from the heads of the unbeaten
A.T.O. outfit in League II. In
League III S.A.E. continued its
lead in the grand march to remain
the only undefeated team in all
four leagues. The Sammies jumped
into the first position in the fourth
league.
Omega Ilall, 11; Sigma Hall, !)
On his first time up to bat in a
battle of the halls, fielder Ben
Bowman of the Sigmas, stepped up
to the plate and knocked a homer.
However, in the third inning Ome
ga scored six Yuns to take the
lead. Roland Blantz, pitcher for
Sigma hall, played a better game
and held Omega down after that,
while George Bikman glued all
pegs to first.
Sigma made its last bid for vic
tory with runs from Norman Win
slow and Bowman, but the Omega
battery combination of Bob Kid
der and John Gibson proved too
strong for them and when Kidder

Yearling Ball Squad
To Meet Super Varsity
On Ball Field Today
The members of the Oregon
varsity baseball squad who did
not make the trip to Monmouth
will meet Lieut. Edward Kel
ley’s yearling team at Reinhart
field this afternoon in a prac
tice game.
Ossie Edwards and Ron Gem
mell will both take their turn
in the box for the super-varsity
with Con Fury catching. Ed
wards, although still bothered
with injuries, is slated to open.
The frosh lineup will un
doubtedly be shifted around to
give all the members of the
squad their turn to test their
batting eye against the slants
of the varsity hurlers.
fanned the last Sigma batter up,
the game ended 11 to 9 for Omega
hall.
Betas, 11 ; D. V., 8
The D. U. softball nine came in
like a lion and went out like a
lamb. In the first inning runs by
Sanford Whiting, Jim Ferguson,
Otto Vonderheit, Eldon Haberman,
Bill Temple, and Dave Silven of
Delta Upsilon definitely offset the
homer by C. Bell of the Betas. The
Betas slowly pulled out of their
first inning set-back, tallying the
greatest number of home runs yet
seen in this tournament. The two
pupils of Babe Ruth were Bell
with two of the blessed events and
Don Siegmund, Beta pitcher, with
three. Other Betas stars were
Butch Morse in the field, Pete Buck
on first base, Glen Hanford at
short, and Spike Powers who
played a fine game as catcher, de
spite an injury early in the game.
Among the D. U.’s George Schenk,
who dazzled the Beta batters with
his hurling, and Bob Callard, who
presided at the hot corner, were
outstanding.
Sammies, 7; Dolts, 3
On Diamond 3 the Sammy nine
seemed pointed toward victory for
most of the game. Good pitching
by Les Goldschmidt of S.A.M., and
Bill Bruce and Dick Hilles of Delta
Tau Delta made long hits a rarity.
Three-baggers made by Philip
Hodes and Vic Rosenfeld of the
Sammies were the longest record
ed. Rosenfeld was the ace hitter
for the Sammies, scoring three
runners; and Julius Scruggs was
the best Delt bat swinger .scoring
two of his team’s three runs.
S.A.E., 5; Phi licit, 2
Remembering that the Phi Delt
nine had donned immaculate red
top baseball caps in their last
game, the S.A.E.’s came to last
night's game appropriately attired
in very commercial chapeaus la
belled “Pittsburgh Plate Glass Co."
The glass-workers started the fire
works with a run from Spook Rob
ertson, but Charley Crawford, new
Pitcher for the Phi Delts, held the
S.A.K's down until the third inn
ing with six strike-outs to his cred
it, when Robertson, Don Eva,
Charles Van Dine, and Joe Kunkle
scored on catcher’s errors. The
Phi Delts called for a new deal and
put in Joe Darby as pitcher and
Jack Campbell as catcher.
The Sigma Alpha Epsilon nine
Played air tight ball the whole
game. Don Eva and Bud Johns
made a perfect battery team.
Robertson had a peg to first that
left the sidelines gasping. Jim
Lieuallen handled the shortstop
position well and Doug Ward
snagged all flies coming into cen-1
ter field territory. The Phi Delts
laid their claim to fame on Mal
colm Bauer at first and La Grande
Houghton, who scored the game's
only homer.
Fiji, !(; A.T.O., I!
At the last of the sixth inning
the game looked like it was in
the bag for the A.T.O. nine. Red
headed Bob Stranix had been
pitching the grapefruit perfectly
to catcher Keith Johns. Ben Grout
handled the fast ones coming to
first base. Force-outs were fre
quent on A1 Davis's second base.
Ron Gemmel and De Graff had
scooped in the flies in the field.
But in the last of the fatal sixth
the Fiji batters dug their heels
into the dust and swatted with all
their might. Pitcher Ray Mize
plunked out a three-bagger, scor
ing two runners, and the race was
on. Six hits were made in this
inning. The A.T.O.'s, up for their
last but, got the old one-two-three
and the game was a Fiji victory,
sigma ('hi, 8; Sigma Nu, 5
Forced to a late start by the
long Sammy-Delt game before, the
Sigma Chis and Sigma Nus agreed
to a five-inning game. As usual
in the softball tilts, the high scor
ing came in the first inning. John
Richardson and Gifford Sobey, toe
Sigma Nu battery, scored for the
mill-race house; and Frank Liv
ings, John Kendall, and Ed Wheel
och for Sigma Chi.
Wheeloek pitched an unusual!
game for the White Crossmen.1
fanning ten Sigma Nu batters in
five innings. The last inning he j
struck out three batters in a row. 1
He was backed by catcher John
Londahl. Kendall at first, Faddy
Sherman at short, and Cosgrove
Seal Outfielder
One of the main hopes of the
San Francisco Seals in the 1034

is Joe DiMaggio (above), youthful
outfielder. DiMaggio is slated for
a tryout in the majors within a
year or two.

OX THE TRACK
—A N D FIELD
Let's not bandy words. Last |
year Oregon had some of the out- |
standing track performers in the j
northwest, andi
one who brought
national recogni
tion. They are
lost through
graduation. The
old fox who
trained them is
still in our midst.
So why shouldn’t
Bill Hayward,
who helped Paul
' Starr on his way
Paul Starr to 9.8 hundred
and a 20.8 two-twenty, teach the
sprinters who wear the Lemon
and Green to catch up that torch
and carry on ?
“If they will run like I tell ’em,’’
says Colonel Bill, “they’ll both tie
the world’s record.’’ They in this
case, are Walter Hopson, the col
ored flash from Los Angeles, and
Bud Shoemake, transfer from Mo
desto junior college.
Hopson and Shoemake have both I
skipped over the hundred in ten
seconds this spring, and are com
ing fast. Hopson rates the num
ber one position on Oregon’s sprint
team by virtue of two wins over
Shoemake in last Saturday's han
dicap meet. Shoemake maintains
that there is no virtue in handicap
meets, but has won the title of
“the fastest white man on the Ore
gon campus.”
Hayward has both of these
sprinters working in a harness
similar to one he designed to get
Mikulak into a running angle so
his neck would not be broken when
going through the line.
Hopson is a short, stocky fellow,
built on the order of Eddie Tolan
of Olympic fame. Shoemake has a
longer wheel base, and under the
Colonel’s tutelage is developing a
driving finish to his races.
Don’t be surprised to see these
men finish one, two in several of
Oregon’s important meets.
Russian Writer’s Philosophy
Dominates rThe Chief Thing’
What is “The Chief Thing?”
Who is Paraclete—the man of
many faces ? Why did he use so
many disguises ? Where did the
Lady With the Dog find her run
away husband who had married
and deserted three wives? What
became of the deaf-mute ? When
can I learn what is the chief thing
in life?
Those who come to "The Chief
Thing,” which is being presented
by the University Players under
the direction of Horace W. Robin
son on May 2, 4, and 5, will have
these questions answered for them.
This play, by the Russian writ
er, Evreinoff, expresses his philos
ophy of life, which is as follows:
“Wre transform life, imagining our
selves and others to be not what
w,e and they are in reality but as
we should like to see ourselves and
others.”
This is a philosophy, not only of
a play, but one which may be ap
plied to each one of our lives, Ev
reinoff believes “Just eliminate
from life those moments when you
are not engaged in posing or play
ing a role, or in watching a spec
tacle of posirig, or the playing of
roles by others,” suggests Evrein
off. “Eliminate all the theatrical,
ceremonial side of your life, all the
hours of the games of your past
and present childhood, when you
play the buffoon, when you imi
tate your acquaintances; eliminate
all hours of reading plays and nov
els, which represent nothing more
or less artificial reenacted life, a
spectacle presented before you on
the pages of the novel; eliminate
from your life all the hours of
hypocrisy, all the hours devoted to
social affairs and conventionalities
—there remains little that is not
the theatre. If you stop to think
of it all, you will agree that every
minute of our life is theatre.”

WHEREAS, for the past two

WHEREAS, of his own free will
this man has expressed a desire

WHEREAS, we believe that
such distant eastern school might
possibly better profit from the at

is for this reason that the common
law is being more and more re
placed by administrative law, to
be administered by commissions
made up of specialists. It is still
the function of the courts, Brand
said, to pass on the question of
whether the litigants who have col
lided with the commsisions have
had a proper hearing ,to which all
are entitled, and as to whether the
administrative law has been prop
erly applied.
Judge Brand indicated that dam
age cases and suits arising from

settle such matters would be the
logical thing.

Bauer advocated some sort of
