Ducks and Heavers
Enter Meet Even-up;
Backstroker Wanted
SATURDAY marks the seventh
^ meeting: of Oregon and Oregon
State in the annual dual relay
meet. In the previous six meets
three have been won by each
school. The approaching meet
might be termed, with apologies
to Mr. Culbertson, “the rubber.”
You 6an bet your shirt that both
Mr. Grant Swan of O.S.C., and Mr.
Bill Hayward of U.O., want to win
this meet to start the season off
right. Particularly Mr. Swan, who,
in his first meet with Mr. Hay
ward, would have quite a plume in
his bonnet if he could squeeze a
win out of Mr. Hayward.
To get down a bit closer to just
what will happen. There will be a
440-yard relay. Last year Hay
ward's men shoidd have won that
event. Each Oregon man outran
an Oregon Stater, but one of the
Oregon men juggled the baton, and
the race was lost.
Then there is that old phrase,
"{.ied-up.” When a man is running
smoothly toward the tape and ties
up, he ties up. If you see a man
high-tailing it around the cinder
path with nothing in his way and
he should suddenly slow down as
if someone had hitched a string of
box cars to him he tied up. That
“tied-up” expression ties up pretty
closely in this relay meet.
Some of the runners have not
had all the experience they need,
and if they burn up the first part
of a 440 or 880, the spectators will
see something that looks pretty
funny, but to the runner it is bad
news. There is nothing he can do;
his legs have turned to boards and
he might run in on his hands but
there is probably an anvil in each
one.
In that land of hope and glory,
southern California, there is noth
ing greeted with so much enthu
siasm as a good track meet, and
there is no better track meet than
a relay meet.

Swimming is definitely on
the upgrade at the University
of Oregon. After a very suc
cessful year which saw Mike
lloyman, swimming coach,
take a group of sophomores
and mold a team which was
aide to hand a heating to
Washington and Oregon State,
one does not wonder at a con
centrated effort to put swim
ming in the major sport stat
us.
Next year it should l>e even
better. Wally Hug should be
covering the 100 and 230-yard
events in better time than lie
did tills season. Then there
are the Itecd brothers, Chuck
and Jim, who have splashed in
the waters of Hawaii. But
those men are not the worry
of Coach lloyman.
It is a different situation here
on the Oregon campus and at other
coast schools than it is in the mid
dle west and east. There the swim
mers come from high schools
where they have held interscholas
tic records and have unlimited
coaching. On this campus it is
necessary to build the swimmers
for some of the events, and right
now Mike Hoyman has a big wor
ry on the backstroke, not that he
does not have a good man in Jim
Heed, who holds the Pacific coast
record, but the problem there is
to find more backstrokers.
If Hoyman could run across one
in the pool or could get some good
husky prospects willing to learn
and not afraid to work, prospects
would appear much brighted for
next year’s squad. Jim Heed coil 1
be relieved of the backstroking
assignment and could swim in the
100 and 220-yard sprint events.
Hoyman is issuing an Invitation to
all who are Interested to report to
the men’s gym to him in the hope
that Oregon will have a well bal
anced swimming team next year.

Only throe softball games were
played last night and these, along
with the games to be played to
night, will complete the league
competition. After the final games
are played off tonight the league
winners will battle it out for the
donut championship of the campus.
The S.A.S.s have cinched League

but Leagues I and II titles might
be any team’s. The games to be
played tonight will probably de
cide the winners of the first two
leagues.
Donut kittenball teams were
forced to don water-wings and
take to sculling in the drenching
Oregon shower which added zest
to the matches last night. Then,
too, the physical education depart
ment donated new and very hard
“soft" balls, which made the hits
longer and the errors more numer
ous.

Bob Anderson, S.P.E. third base
man and first man up to bat in
the game, scored iSgma Phi Epsi
lon’s only run. From that time on
the Kappa Sigma tong played shut
out baseball. Rarely did they al
low q, batter even to reach first in
Safety. Lucas was high score man
for Kappa Sigma with three runs
in four times at bat. Skidmore,
Kappa Sig pitcher, kept the bat
ters down to one or two base hits.
Both Giescke and Whittlesey had
better luck playing their respective
positions behind the plate and on
first than they did at bat.
The S.P.E. battery of McClaugh
ery and Cauler couldn’t seem to
get going. The S.P.E.s failed to
get a single run in six innings.
Swanson at short played a good
game, as did Wishard in left field.

practice for the Delis the Delt
D.U. softball game soon turned
into a swimming meet, nl tlie first
part of the game, Schenk, D.U.
pitcher, fed the balls to the Delt
battel's and they gleefully placed
the pill in remote parts of the field.
Scruggs, Delt short stop, beat all
previous batting records by gath
ering in six runs and one walk in
seven times at bat. Lees, catcher,
was not far behind, with one hom
er plus four other runs.
A minor monsoon, straight from
the shores of Coos Bay, drenched
the latter innings of the game.
Other teams deserted their dia
monds but the “Ironmen" of the
Delt and D.U. houses did not fear
rust and splashed on with the
game. Most of the time the batter
threw the bat farther than he
knocked the ball. In most cases
the catcher was unable to see the
runner sliding home, due to the
sheet of mud thrown up. And ea J l
clean pair of pants that met with
disaster was heralded uproarious
ly from the side-lines. Delts and
D.U.s forgot racial distinctions and
clung to each other in spasms of
hislarity. Grim fielders dripped in
the outfield.
Lindsay played a rain-or-shine
game on first for the Delts and
was aided by the sure pegs of
Swenson and Scruggs. The battery

never stood much of a chance.
For the Betas there was the fa

East. There is original energy in
him. The secret of Oriental art is
sublime simplicity. He is stead
fast in his pursuit of the secret."
Sekido himself explains the dif
ference he sees between American
and Japanese art "In Japanese
art we have no perspective. We do
not try to be scientifically correct
in our drawing and we have not
studied anatomy or color theories.
We think that art is just the ex
pression of emotion, and we com
pose our pictures so as to get the
greatest beauty. Composition is
the big thing in our pictures and
directness the chief charm of our
drawings.
"Now in America the art stu

spective, a nice coat of color the
ory. nice shoes of anatomy for his
art to stand on, but when he gets
all these he doesn't know where
he is going. He sees a nice shiny
automobile of commercial art com
ing along, and because he doesn't
know anywhere else to go, he hops
right in and goes off to just any
where."

Group of Sprinters
To Eugene
Oregon’s varsity track team will
be seen in competition for the first
time Saturday when they meet the
relay team from Oregon State on
Hayward field at 2 o’clock.
Students will be admitted to the
relay on their student body cards,
or the regular admission' charge
that admits the general public.
Many of the track fans who
have wondered how the Oregon
sprint team will stack up, minus
the services of Paul Starr, will
have an opportunity to see both
Walter Hopson and Bud Shoemake
in action in both the 440-yard re
lay and the 880-yard event.
Coach Names Men
The 440 team, Hayward decided
yesterday, will be made up of Wal
ter Hopson lead off, Howard Pat
terson running second, Mason Mc
Coy third, and Bud Shoemake
running in the anchor positions.
Oregon stands a very good chance
of breaking the record in this
event as Patterson, Shoemake, and
Hopson run the 110 in 11 seconds,
and McCoy close to that figure.
The sprint medley is another
event that Oregon stands a good
chance of breaking the meet rec
ord in. The event includes two
110-yard stretches, a 220 and a
440 for the anchor. Oregon will
have Hopson, Shoemake, Patter
son and either Burr or Bowerman
in this race.
Shoemake and Hopson can be
expected to turn in 11 seconds or
better. Patterson runs his best
race at the 220-yard mark. Burr
and Bowerman are both touring
the 440 in good early season time,
so barring mishap the fans will
see a new record set in this event.
Oregon Favored
Oregon is in the favored posi
tion in the distance medley. With
Walter Hopson starting the race
and running a 220, Oregon should
hold a lead from the start. In
second position Hayward can pick
from Marshall Wright and Bob
Thomas, who are both covering the
440-yard distance in good time.
They will carry the baton to
George Schomp or Bob Ludington,
who are both running the half
mile in two minutes. Bob Wagner
is running in the anchor position

After three weeks of play in the
donut golf tournament, three hous

semi-finals and the other member
of the group will be determined in
a match this morning and in this
afternoon's games the finalists to
be decided.
Delta Upsilon, Chi Psi, and Kap

the major part of the semi-final

winner of the Beta Theta Pi-Sigma
Nu contest.
The D.U.s started their drive for
the title by winning from the Phi
Psis and the S.P.E.s and then con
tinued with a victory over the Phi

Smith, Bill Rice, Jerry Scott, and
Chuck Kleinegger make up the
D.U. team.

over Alpha hall 10 to 2 to win the

Oregon is at a stand-off with
the Staters in the other five
events, and it is there that the
meet will be decided. The shuttle
relay, which sees four men run
ning 110 yards of high hurdles
each, is anybody’s race because of
the danger of crashing into one
of the high sticks.
The four-mile relay finds Ore
gon at a considerable disadvantage
because of the lack of good milers.
The two-mile event has each man
running a half mile. This should
be a close race from start to fin
ish with Oregon State having two
fine 880 men in Gugisberg and
White, and Oregon having George
Scharpf and Bob Ludington to
match strides with the staters,
and Huber Phillips and Rus Hum
phries to run in the first two posi
tions. The distance medley and
880-yard relay are anyone’s race
because of the necessity of several
of the men running in previous
races.
