Vision of Rosson as
Mighty Medicine Man
Of Web foots Is Foiled
/CRITICISMS directed at Coach
^ Bill Reinhart and the Oregon
ball players, for actions in the
Bill Reinhart
Idaho and Cou
gar games, re
ceived a mighty
bad jolt yester
day when the
nine put on an
excellent exam
ple of just how
baseball really
should be played
in the trimming
they handed the
Huskies. H o w -
ever, with a
northern jaunt, in which games
will average at least one a day,
staring him in the face, Bill is
still none too optimistic about the
chances of his crop of sophomore
athletes.
* » *
When the Webfoots upset the
dope with their victory, another
great dream of reorganizing the
Oregon athletic department went
haywire. Seeing Buck Bailey come
roaring in out of the northwest
with his spittings, sputterings, and
charm bags, and then go chugging
out, still as noisy as ever, with
a Webfoot scalp . . . hearing of
how Tubby Graves, Husky men
tor, can shout and voice his opin
ions of umpires when the occasion
demands ... all this didn’t fit in
with a losing Oregon squad and
a meek Bill Reinhart sitting on
the bench, and only occasionally
disagreeing in a mild manner with
bellowing Frisco Edwards.
Visualizing a new system, one
could see Reinhart teaching, “I
got it, I got it,” to English stu
dents, while Hugh Kosson, Gene
Shields, Paul Washlte, or some
other rather portly individual
would be remade into a charg
ing demon of the athletic fields
to entertain sports fans in other
cities, and stir up some deep,
dark magic to overwhelm the
evil spirits of Bailey and Graves.
Not rubbing it in to Chuck
Hoag, but the wisdom of Ray Koch
and Joe Gordvn in sticking in
school under the supervision of a
good coach, despite coast league
contracts, was brought home this
week by the release handed Hoag
by the Portland Beavers. Another
year under Reinhart, and Chuck
would have had just that much
better chance of making the
grade. He also would have been
a mighty big help to the Ducks
in the conference race.
One gets a kick out of: . . .
Hartley Kneeland trying by
telephone to persuude an iceman
downtown to bring some ice to
the Igloo for the Junior Prom.
Finully succeeding, after ex
plaining it was to McArthur
court. . . . Hurry McCall stretch
ing to get a close decision at
first. . . . Tom Stoddard getting
political votes with a magnifi
cent gesture of “let ’em in”
when kids broke through a gate
at a game last week. . . . Maury
Van Yliet beating out an infield
hit. . . . Ray ivocli making im
possible stops at second like he
did yesterday.

Braves Make
War Medicine
Washington - Oregon Race
Carnival Starts at 1:30
Today on Hayward Oval
Huskies Big Favorites to
Scalp Oregon’s Braves
By GEORGE JONES
Wot ho! for the big race fest to
take place on Hayward field today.
The highly touted Washington
track men are descending on the
local campus with blood in their
eyes, and already making plans for
a big Indian war-dance to make
potent medicine for Mr. Big Chief
Stick-in-the-Way (otherwise Bill)
Hayward. The war will start at
1:30 this afternoon, with the afore
mentioned heap big Seattle tribe
and Hayward’s proteges as the
combatants.
The Huskies are big favorites
to accomplish their deadly purpos
es, and according to the dope
should swing off up the Puget
Sound trail with many scalps hang
ing at their belts. Another tribe
from Oregon, the Corvallis tribe
fell prey to the plots of the Husky
clan, 92 scalps to 38.
Hayward Prepares Traps
Hayward, the cunning and crafty
leader, however, has laid many bad
snares in the path of the invaders.
There are different kinds of snares,
ranging from the sparkling group
of transfer warriors to two of last
year's Northwest champions. All
these allies need is a little stirring
up, and Big Chief Hayward is well
known in cinder circles for his
adeptness in that line.
The Oregon tribe is basing its
hope for victory on its strength in
the field events. Sachem Gardner
Frye, pride of the Northwest in the
shot and discus, should have no
trouble here. Stanford Smith and
Walt Back should pick up a third
apiece, as the ambassadors from
the Big City of the Fog do not
boast the beeg strong type of men,
that 1.3, enough to win.
Ducks Have Hurdlers
The hurdlers are another impor
tant part of Oregon's recovery pro
gram. The Ducks should cash in
on 15 counters, or thereabouts in
the high and low hurdles, with Ma
son McCoy and Fred Nowland do
ing their stuff. By the same token
the Webfoots may take a first in,
the high jump and broad jump, but
Hayward is not stressing his
chances of an upset too strongly
on the former, as Hawkins, agile
Husky brave, has soared into the
atmosphere 6 feet 3 inches, about
3 inches better than Nowland's ef
fort.
Only one Duck runner is favored
to win his race, from present in
dications. The chosen individual is
Bob Wagner* northwest champion
in the two mile, who has also been
clicking around the mile in cred
itable time. He will be abetted in
the latter distance by Bob Luding
ton and Bill Paddock.
Husky Sprinters Strong
The Seattle lads have scads of
men in other events. Frank Plumb
of Washington is highly favored
to waltz away with the sprints, but
don’t count Bud Shoemake and
Walt Hopson of Oregon out.
The 440 and half mile are also
given to Washington, but by a
pitcher, Wintermute; errors: Mc
Call, DeLaunay, Hanover, Tesreau,
Leiendecker; struck out; Donin 7,
Wintermute 3; Bases on balls: Do
nin 4, Wintermute 1, O’Brien 2;
stolen base: Boulton 2; home run:
Weber; 2 base hit: Weber, Gordon,
Donin; sacrifice: Clausen 2, Koch,
McCall; runs batted in: Koch 3,
Hunt 2, DeLaunay 3, Vail 1; hit by
pitcher: by Wintermute (Vail);
umpire: Frisco Edwards; time 1:45.
SAM, Sigma Chi to Play
For Donut Softball Titlo
Sigma Chi and S.A.M. softball
donuteers will meet Monday at
4 on the intramural field to de
cide the softball championship.
Of 21 teams entered in this in
tramural sport over a month
ago only these two nines re
main.
Both squads have won two
games and dropped one in the
four-league round robin tour
ney. The Sammies lost to Sig
ma Alpha Epsilon but have
beaten the Sigma Chis, while
the Sigma Chi nine has trimmed
the S.A.E.s twice. With the
dope-bucket upset so often, do
nut followers are not favoring
either team as a sure v^inner.
Webfoot Golfers
Meet OSC Varsity
And Kooks Today
Orange Squad Is Leader of
Conference Race
University of Oregon aial Ore
gon State golf players will match
strokes on the Eugene country
club course this morning, and con
tinue through the day. The best
ball matches will start at 9:30,
and the individual battles in the
afternoon.
The invading linksmen are top
kings in the northern division of
the conference. They have lost
but one, to Washington, a/id
gained eight victories, one 20 to
0>/2 over Oregon.
Since last Saturday Coach Tom
Stoddard has effected a shake-up
in the team in the effort to find
a winning combination. Don Ol
sen is No. one, John Boyd, No.
two, Phil Mulder, only man to win
a match for Oregon last Saturday,
is No. three, followed by his
brother, Jack, Ed Labbe, and Tom
Emmons. Stoddard believes that
on the country club layout the
Ducks may win today.
The Oregon freshmen will be out
to hold up their end of Duck golf
by attempting to hand the Rooks
their second straight loss. A bat
tle royal is in prospect, when Sid
Milligan, Duckling No. one divot
digger, clashes with Bob Ingalls,
leading Rook player, who scored a
74 on the difficult Corvallis
course. Other frosh players will
be Ford Young, John Allen, and
Blaine Ballah. The yearling
matches will start at the same
time as the varsity meets.
very slight margin. Fred Galer
outrun anything California and
Oregon State had to offer, and un
less Bill Bowerman or Sherwood
Burr put on a burst of speed, five
points go to the Huskies. The
same situation prevails in the 880.
where Fred Montgomery appears
to have the situation well in hand.
George Scharpf or Huber Philips
might pick up a few points.
The two remaining individual
events are quite obviously decided.
Bobby Parke, Oregon javelin star,
will be out after, a new Northwest
record, for he has already tossed
the spear 213 feet, which is eight
feet beyond Warren Demaris'
mark. Oregon has no one who can
pole vault over 12 feet, so the
Huskies look good there.

Zeta, Alpha Halls
Will Stage Hattie
For Softball Cup
Digestion League Is Tied
Between Two Nines
Zeta and Alpha halls are the
present leaders in the Digestion
league being played between the
four halls. The prize at stake is
a silver loving cup presented to
the winning dormitory softball
team each year. At present the
cup is held by Friendly hall, now
Alpha hall.
Zeta is closest to winning the
trophy with two wins, one over
Sigma hall and one over Omega.
Dutch Clark's home run swings,
Roy Vander Zanden’s fielding, and
Stanley King’s catching have been
prime factors in the Zeta victo
ries.
Alpha hall has also beaten Sig
ma and Omega, though not as se
verely as the Zeta digestion,
leaguers. The Ghrones brothers,
Mike and Demosthenes, Bill Ito,
Joe Saslavsky, and Frank Michek
are the stalwarts upon whom
Alpha bases its hopes. The battle

Prediction as to Result
Encounter to Be First for
Frosh; Line-up Is Given
Oregon net men will play the
Oregon State college tennis teams
for the first time this year when
varsity and freshman squads fight
it out at TO o’clock this morning on
the University courts. There will
be no admission charge.
Coach Paul R. VVashks says he
is “uncomfortably undecided" as to
what the outcome of the meet
might be. Since the rather unex
pected defeat of the varsity at the
hands of the Linfield college rac
quet wielders Wednesday, he can
do no more than hope for the best,
he stated.
The varsity line-up has been
changed slightly. Singles will be
played by Tom Mountain, George
Economus, Cosgrove LaBarre, Har
lan Thompson, and Norman Win
slow in the order named. In the
doubles Mountain will pair with
Economus, and LaBarre and Fred
Fisher are slated to play.
The freshmen are expected to
put up a tough battle as it is their
first real tournament of the sea
son. Their previous encounters
with the varsity and with Univer
sity high have been only practice
matches.
The frosh will play in the fol
lowing order: John Economus, A]
Tyson, George Bikman, Howard
Kessler, Mike Chrones. Doubles:
Economus and Tyson, Bikman and
Mel Johnson.
Alpha halls, will be staged next
Tuesday after dinner on the intra
mural field.
Women’s
Athletics
By MARGERY KISSLING
THIS week all the archery
classes and intramural archers
shot Columbia rounds for the
postal archery meet. From the
scores taken, the eight highest
were sent in to represent the Uni
versity of Oregon.
These eight were then divided
into two teams. The first team
is composed of Betty Shoe
maker, 251 points; Mildred
Chapman, 203 paints; Edith
Clark, 199 points; and Martha
Goodrich. Ellen Hill, lol points,
Adeline Adams, 17” points, Jean
Frazier, 176 points, and Ethel
Thompson, 175 points, are on
the second team.
Enough tennis matches are be
ing played so that Lhe list of en
trants is narrowed down consid
erably. If good weather predomi
nates in the next week or so, the
semi-finals should be ready to be
run off.
Swimmers Live
On Watery Diets
The University all-campus swim
ming contest was postponed yes
terday but will be resumed next
Monday. About half the events of
the water contest have been run.
Jim Reed, Francis Oglesby, Leon
ard Scroggins, and Chuck Reed are
at the present time leading the con
test in point standings. The swim
mers have stood up under the
grueling events remarkably well,
swimming several tiring distances
each evening. Instead of becom
ing stale, the Oregon swimmers
seem to thrive on their watery diet,
and the Pacific coast records are
falling with increasing rapidity.
