BILL BOWERMAN
Bob Parke Awarded
New Honor as Star
Of Outstanding Ability
Friends, lovers and followers of
Oregon's athletic destinies, lend
me your ears. It seems fitting that
since Oregon has produced many
athletes in the past who are worth
just a bit more than a passing line,
and since there will be many more
produced in the future who will
shine as brilliantly, there should
be some recognition. Let me offer
a bit that will appear now and in
termittently for the remainder of
this year, and should the succeed
ing sports editor see fit let it be
carried on,
"The Emerald of a t h 1 e ti c
achievement” will be the term ap
plied to the journalistic gesture
which recognizes an individual who
has done outstanding work for
Oregon in athletics and deserves
the stamp of approval.
Mr. Robert Frank Parke for his
outstanding efforts in the past and
his javelin toss of over 207 feet
which clinched the meet Saturday
afternoon and broke the Northwest
record, be he accorded the Emerald
of athletic achievement.
Bill Reinhart’s gang of sopho
mores did not fumble in their two
game series with Washington over
the weekend. They performed like
the baseball players they are. From
the time they took the field in the
first inning until they got their
last chance at bat in the eighth
there was never a doubt about who
had the situation in hand.
Joe Gordon and Ray Koch
snapped up those hot ground balls
like they were hamburgers. On
one short fly ball Little Joe took
three steps for a warm-up and
took off into the ozone and speared
the ball. That was only part of it.
He (lid a double Hip and came
down to a hand-stand. Now to
most of the public that was quite
a feat, most ball players coming
down from a double flip usually
land in the vicinity of the middle
of their backs or thereabouts.
“That’s nothin,’’ said Joe, “you
oughta see me on the hard ones.”
* $ *
I’d go to every ball game from
now until way into the future to
see the duplication of Mickey
Vail’s effort in the game Saturday
With Washington.
Everyone knows the sizzling
sound of a baseball hit foul and
spinning high and whispering
through its whiskers. That sound
brought the bask off Mr. Vail in
the game Saturday afternoon and
he glanced rapidly in the blue for
the pellet. He spotted a black
speck directly over his head and
set himself for the catch that
would retire the side. The speck
seemed to hover directly over the
home plate and at a respectable
distance but defied the laws of
gravity. At last it veered off in
a northeasterly course towards the
igloo and disappeared. Mickey had
set himself to capture a sparrow
which was not familiar with Mr.
Vail’s intentions.
Well, Mr. Edmundson, now you
know that it is not proper to take
advantage of Mr. Hayward. Espe
cially when he is wide awake. It
is improper to bring three sprint
ers to Eugene in anticipation of
taking one, two and three in the
sprint events. That is, not when
Mr. Hayward is grooming two
sprinters of his own and is figur
ing on taking one, two.
Let us drink a cup to Bill Hay
ward and to the ones he will pull
out of the fire in the future.
Graduate Councils to Meet
The regular term meeting of the
joint Oregon State and University
graduate councils will be held iii
the committee room of Johnson
hall this afternoon. After the busi
ness session the group will adjourn
to the Anchorage for dinner.

In Dual Meet
Mason McCoy to Captain
Ducks Saturday
Cougars Are Favored by Return
Of Many Men From 1933
Team
With the victory over the Uni
versity of Washington tucked
safely away in the record books,
Colonel Bill Hayward has started
his trackmen to work in prepara
tion for the meet with Washing
ton State college in Pullman next
Saturday.
Captain Sherwood Burr will be
unable to make the trip because j
of an injury received in the relay
meet with Oregon State three
weeks ago. At a meeting held
yesterday afternoon on the track
Captain Burr nominated Mason
McCoy, two-year letterman and
hurdler, to act as captain at the
meet with the Cougars. He was
unanimously elected to the posi
tion by his teammates.
Oregon will again be the under
dog in this meet. The Cougars
were the winners of the North
west conference track champion
ship last spring and have many
of their star performers competing
again this year.
Washington State is particu
larly strong in the shot and discus.
Hal Dunker and George Theodor
atus have taken one, two in every
meet they have competed in ex
cept the discus in the Northwest
meet last spring when Gardy
Frye edged them out for first
place.
In the 440 Washington State
has Nichols and Driver, who fin
ished in first and third places in
the conference meet last year in
a 48.8 quarter.
Oregon stanas a gooa cnance to
be blanked in the half-mile event.
In the Drake relays the Cougars
had the third uest two-mile retay
tearp. Four half-milers who are
capable of doing under 1.59 make
the efforts of Oregon's half-mile
men seem inadequate.
Oregon will be strong in the
distance events. Bob Wagner, Bob
Ludington and Bill Paddock take
care of the mile and two-mile
events and will gather most of the
points there.
Colonel Bill Hayward will select
his traveling squad at practice
this afternoon. The conference
ruling limits teams for dual meets
to 18 men. Hayward will pick his
team according to the men who
he thinks will be able to win
places for Oregon in the meet
Saturday.
Talk on New Deal
Given by Speaker
Impotence of the supreme
court to*he New Deal was em
phasized during last night's broad
cast of The Score by Richard
Neuberger, junior in law, over
KORE. Recent decisions on mort
gage moratoriums and milk reg
ulation and their influence on the
Roosevelt administration were dis
cussed by the speaker.
The milk decision, the speaker
declared, is of vital interest to
Oregon, for this state has a new
law patterned after the one whose
validity was questioned before the
supreme tribunal.
The personnel of the supreme
court was mentioned by Neuber
ger, who cited the liberal majority
of Hughes, Roberts, Cardozo,
Stone and Brandeis and the con
servative minority of Butler, Van
Devanter, McReynolds and Suth
erland.
The broadcast, known as "The
Ballot Box," was conducted by
Merlin Blais, director of The
Score’s weekly discussion of sig
nificant public affairs.

Beat Montana But
Lose to Vandals
Johnson, Miller, Koskela Double
Winners; Scruggs, Palm
Estes Place Well
A victory over Montana and a
loss to Idaho was the result of
last week’s telegraphic meet for
the Oregon freshman track team,
according to an announcement
made yesterday by Howard Greer
of Washington State college. Re
sults of events held on each cam
pus were wired to Greer and he
compiled the ratings.
The Oregon margin over Mon
tana was 69 1-2 to 49 1-2, while
the loss to the Idaho squad was
58 1-6 to 63 5-6.
In four events the Oregon en
tries defeated both the opposing
squads. Johnson turned in the be3t
time for the mile with 4:33.4 and
Miller was the best entrant in the
220 yard dash with a time of 22.4.
The two other Oregon sweeps were
in the javelin, where Koskela won
with a 165 feet 5 inch throw, and
in the mile relay where Johnson,
Freeman, Gambee, and Schulz ran
the distance in 3:35.
Scruggs turned in three victor
ies for the Ducklings with a first
in both the 100 yard dash and 220
yard low hurdles against Montana,
and one in the broad jump against
Idaho. Estes rung up a first place
in the shotput over the Vandals,
while Palm led his Montana oppon
ents 120 yard high hurdles.

Tennis Team
Wins Victory
At Willamette
U. O. Netmen Win Five
Matches in Meet
Fine Flay by All Men During Tilt
Gave Oregon Second Win
From Salem Team
The Oregon varsity tennis team
journeyed to Salem yesterday to
engage the Willamette netmen in
battle and brought home the bacon
in the form of a 5 to 2 victory.
The Oregon squad dropped two sin
gles matches but won three singles
and both doubles matches.
At first things looked dark for
the invading ducks. Tom Mountain
lost the first singles match to Ben
nett of Willamette, 6-1, 6-4. Then,
when the Willamette star, Hager
man, took Cosgrove LaBarre, 6-2,
4-6, 6-2, Oregon’s chances looked
even slimmer. But the Oregon
squad rallied and was undefeated
in the remainder of the matches.
George Economus beat Harmon
of Willamette easily, 6-2, 6-4. Har
lan Thompson, after dropping the
first set to his opponent, Har
vey, rallied to take the match, 1-6,
6-4, 6-2. Norman Winslow won the
fifth and last singles match for
Oregon when he took Winston of
Willamette, 6-3, 6-4.
While the Willamette squad
seemed to be wearying through
the strain of play, the Oregon net
men gained momentum as the af
ternoon progressed and took their
doubles matches by the most one
sided scores yet. Tom Mountain
and Cosgrove LaBarre, who had
been beaten earlier in the day,
showed that they played much bet
ter together than individually, for
they succeeded in defeating the
team of Bennett and Hagerman,
who had beaten them before, by
the score, 6-0, 6-1.
Then Oregon’s second doubles
team, composed of Fred Fisher
and George Economus, downed the
northern team of Harmon and Har
vey, 6-3, 6-3.

Drawing the last slip from the
hat, the judges of the Softball All
star team gave one last gasp and
left this earth. But not before they
had drawn up the two stellar nines
listed above. Five out of the eigh
teen rnen are members of the
championship Sigma Chi nine;
Sigma Alpha Mu, which was sec
ond, placed three men: two men
were members of the Sigma. Alpha
Epsilon nine, which advanced to
third place in the championship
play-off; and two players repre
sented the Yeomen team, runner
up.
Men Chosen
The players were picked both
according to their performance at
their regular positions and to their
batting ability. Their value to
their team was also taken into con
sideration in making the decisions.
It was extremely difficult to dis
criminate between players in some
cases. The competition was par
ticularly keen for the pitcher,
catcher, first base, short stop, and
third base positions.
Leslie Goldschmidt of Sigma Al
pha Mu took the pitching laurels
without one vote of dissension. All
his opponents readily rated him as
the best pitcher in the league. But
the choice of second string pitcher
was not so clear cut. Ed Wheel
ock of the Sigma Chis, Bree Cup
poletti of Pi Kappa Alpha, Rus
Woodard of Theta Chi, and Don
Eva of Sigma Alpha Epsilon were
all mentioned. Wheelock’s consist
ency and speedy delivery finally
won him the position.
Catcher
Even greater difficulty accom
panied the choice of catcher. John
Londahl of Sigma Chi was a good
bitter and had improved his
work behind the bat. Tom
Mountain was a fine catcher and
support to his team, but a poor
hitter. And Gifford Sobey of Sig
ma Nu, Spike Powers of Beta
Theta Pi, and Tommy Whiting of
Delta Upsilon were pressing at
the heels of the leaders.
Yeoman Guy Shellenherger laid
a pretty clear claim to the initial
sack, but Bill White, Fiji; Ed Kun
kle, S.A.E.; and Hague Callister,
Chi Psi came close to jumping his
claim. Duke Hardisty of Sigma
Alpha Epsilon and Harry Lucas of
Kappa Sigma were such close ri
vals for second sack that only
cream puffs at 50 paces could set
tle the matter. Honorable mention
goes to Bill Ito of Alpha hall and
Gib Olinger of Phi Kappa Psi.
Short Stop
Ladd Sherman took the first
string short stop position due to
his expert handling of the pop flies
and grounders in the short area.
Vic Rosenfeld of the Sammies and
Jim Lieuallen, S.A.E., were nip and
tuck for second mention. The hot
spot went to LaGrande Houghton
of Phi Delta Theta, while Red Ro
tenberg, S-Aftf.; Cosgrove La
Barre, Sigma Chi; and Reed Swen
son, Delta Tau Delta, scrambled
for the second team position.
In the field, Bob DeGraff, A.T.O.
left fielder, won that position, Bob
Wagner, Sigma Chi, was the logi
cal second choice. Mel Johnson,
Sigma Chi; Doug Ward, S.A.E.;
and Ralph Brown, Theta Chi all
vied for the center field laurels.
The right field first position went
, to Dit Siegmund of Beta Theta Pi,
second place to A1 Schneider of
the Yeomen, with honorable men
tion to Dave Silven of Delta Upsi
lon.

Mrs. Martin Norgore of Seattle,
