CLAIR JOHNSON, Editor UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, JANUARY 11, 1935 Duck Tracks By CLAIR JOHNSON Eberhart Ought to Be Proud; No Umpires Note— IPs Mr. Referee Coach Jean Eberhart over at University high ought to be feel ing very proud right at the moment with two of his former proteges occupying the hoop limelight on the campus. Bill Harcombe, new Varsity shining light, is one of the lads and Jack Stafford, high point man and star for the Ducklin hoopers in their opening games, is the other. Conference hoop officials are no longer referees and umpires says Thil Brandt, Barometer sports ed itor. Correct etiquette now desig nates the men as Mr. Referee this year—both of them. There is no longer any differentiation between umpire and refree. Officials decide before a series who is to be in charge of the first game and then switch honors the second night. This, however, holds true only with the more experi enced officials. When the newer referees—Harry Deeding of Port land, or J. Buckley of Spokane— are working the games the older men continue to handle the more umpire and referee. Jimmy Mitchell, Seattle, Emil Piluso, Portland, and Ralph Cole man, Oregon State, are the three oldest officials in experience in the northern division. The announcement that Bill Berg will be on the bench for the O.S.C. clash is somewhat of a blow to the Webfoots’ chances. Given any time on his shot Berg is about the best dead-eye on the squad, although contrary to last year’s steady play he has been turning in rather hit and miss offerings in this season’s tilts. Shooting like an eastern pro, Rodgers, Cougar forward, was the dead-eye of their squad in the se ries here. His shots were the deep underhanded sort of flip starting as low as the knee. The shot is an easy one to stop if the checker is close enough to put up his hand but the shooter is usually so deep he has the guard believing he won’t attempt a shot. * * * The notable deficiency of the Oregon team in games so far this season is their inability to grab the ball after any tipoff play, jump ball, or off the backboard. Johnson seemed to be their biggest trouble in the Cougar games. He got away with over half of the center jump balls and figured in almost every other play. Six-footers will be the order of the day when the Webfoots take the floor against the Beavers to morrow at Corvallis. With Bill Harcombe and Willie Jones both hovering above the 6 foot 4 mark, Budd Jo*es at 6 foot 2, and John Lewis and Ron Gemmell both about one inch lower followed by Sam Liebowitz and Glen Sanford at an even 6 foot (from whom the starting lineup will most likely be chosen) the Ducks boast the rang iest five they have had for some time. When Bob Miller’s broken hand gets in shape so he can play there will be another 6 foot 3 of mate ria! added to the squad, while Cap tain Bill Berg, now out with a foot infection, is another even 6 footer. Along with all his good playing the other night against the Cou gars Liebowitz also turned in some rather hum pass-tossing. In the first haif of the Monday night game he had nine wild tosses that ended up in Washington State men’s arms. Of course it might be argued that his teammates weren’t alert enough to get them but nev ertheless to be of greatest value to his team Liebowitz will have to make his passes so they go to his own players. Ned Simpson, Oregon Varsity football end, has another year of play left with the Ducks instead of this being his final year as yes terday's Emerald stated. Also this is Simpson's first letter award.

Duckling Five Loses Second Game to Irish J. Walts Leads Winners In 40-28 Victory; Stafford Hot Frosli Look Better Than in First Clash The University of Oregon fresh man basketball team dropped the second of a two game series with the Eugene Irish Cash Store five here last night at McArthur court by a 40 to 28 score. The Irish led by Jim Watts and Maxie Rubenstein, ex-Webfoot ma ple cavorters led from the outset. The half time score was 21 to 14 in favor of the independents. The Ducklings looked better than in the Wednesday evening fracas, making setups count, when they didn’t the previous evening. However, they did miss many long shots by an eyelash, and conse quently pulled their score down. Stafford Stars Stafford played his usual brand of good ball for the Frosh, captur ing high point honors for his team with a total of seven points. Watts stole the show last night ringing up a total of 11 markers to run off with high point honors of the game. He was closely followed by Condon, who amassed 10 digits. Lee Canessa and Stafford sparked the Frosh onward with a good offensive and defensive game. Canessa still showed some football in his basketball playing, but with a few more weeks’ practice, will probably iron this out. As in the Wednesday go, the Frosh jumped to an early lead with a. fast passing attack that enabled Danner, lanky center to move out in front of the basket and drop a pretty setup in. Rubenstein Scores Rubenstein then „came back and clumped in a long shot that tied the score at two-all and from then on the Irish led throughout the re mainder of the contest, finally walking away in the final half. It wasn’t until late in the third quarter that the game was put on ice, when Rubenstein again called on his pet play of getting the ball in front of the basket, to pivot and back hand the ball in. He did this twice in a row, and then swinging to the left to escape the defense, he shot. The ball was deflected from a Duckling’s hand and neat ly swished through the hoop to make the score 35 to 26. Last minute shots by Dick and Silver put the losers to <vithin three points of the Shamrocks, but then Watts and Condon came to the rescue and putting in a long arcing shot and one free throw finally pulled away and made the final count 38 to 28 in their power.

The first discussion will be led by Rev. Cecil Ristow of the First Methodist church. Interest has been revived in co operatives through studies made by Wallace Campbell, former Wes ley club member and graduate as sistant in sociology on the Univer sity campus, who is now studying cooperatives in the eastern states. The meetings are held at 6:30 ev ery Sunday evening in the Metho dist church, preceded by a social hour.

Chief Democrats Fight to Prevent Congress Revolt Four Billion Dollar Lump For Federal Relief Fund Subject of Debate WASHINGTON, Jan. 10 —(AP) —Steps to block a brewing revolt in congress ag&inst a lump sum appropriation of $4,000,000,000 for the administration’s work relief program were taken today by President Roosevelt and Demo cratic chieftains. A course was charted at a White House conference today to prevent efforts of members to allocate the huge fund to various projects and purposes. It was agreed by the leaders that all but $300,000,000, to be set aside for regular public works, would be turned over to the chief executive for distribution on pro jects designed to give Work to 3,500,000 now on federal relief rolls. A specific bill to this effect was carried away from the White House. Those called to the execu tive offices were Vice President Garner, Speaker Byrns, Demo cratic senate leader Robinson and chairman Buchanan of the house appropriations committee. Buchanan, whose committee will initiate the legislation, said after the conference, that the agreement was reached to go ahead with the $4,000,000,000 lump sum proposi tion. In flinging a challenge to those who want the relief fund allocated Buchanan said: “It is utterly impracticable and imposible to ear-mark the $4,000, 000 fund." At the same time, the president informed the leaders he was anx ious for quick action on the $880, 000,000 emergency relief appro priation. Buchanan said this would he handled in a separate bill before existing law expires February 10. Speaker Byrns said he told the president there was a “general and reasonable and proper desire” in congress to know how the big fund was to be spent, and that efforts would be made in the house to ear mark it. •iiMitniHritimiPMmimMiitH'.iHiiiiminminmiiiimiim Prospects Good For Rifle Squad The University rifle team, selec tions for which are now being made by a process of elimination, will have nine of last year’s men on the team again this year. Four of these were on the first string; they are Earl Thomson, Kenneth BeLieu, B. J. Cross, and Bill Rice. The other five, who were substitutes last year, are Leith Oglesby, Del Bjork, Charles Ayers, and Bob Parker. The other 21 members of the team will be picked from the 24 remaining tryouts, who are still firing on the range. These 21 will be the best shots of the original (10 who started in the tryouts last term. Last year's five-man team came within three points of taking the district championship. Although it is yet a little early to accurately judge the coming team, there are indications that it will be as good as that of last year. Earl Thom son, whose score in the individual national championship matches last year was but one below the champion's, is held a possible na tional winner this year. Twenty-six matches with other colleges and universities have al ready been accepted and scheduled. The intercollegiate matches will start the week ending February 9 and will end the week of March 2. Players to Tour Southern Oregon Traveling in a special caravan of cars the University players will leave at 1:30 this afternoon for Roseburg where they are sched uled to present “The Amazons" by Sir Arthur Pinero at the Roseburg high school.

Ready for Clash With Ducks CORVALLIS, Ore., Jan. 10.— (AP)—With the leadership of the northern division of the coast con ference basketball race at stake, Oregon State college and Univer sity of Oregon meet here Saturday night. Both are undefeated this season in conference play, each winning two games from Washington State. While the Webfoots showed an edge in scoring, comparative scores showed Oregon State excelling at defense. In two games against Washing ton State the Webfoots scored 67 points, as compared to 63 by the Orangemen. Oregon State held the Cougars to 47 points in two games while Oregon allowed them 55. Emphasis has been on offensive as Coach Armory T. “Slats” Gill drilled his men this week for the coming early season climax Sat urday night. Send the Emerald to your friends. Berg Unable to Play Against Orangemen Infected Toe to Keep Captain on Bench In Saturday Clash: New J ' Combination Slated Against tlic victory-hungering Beavers at Corvallis Saturday night the VVebfoot basketeers will start minus their captain, Bill Berg. Berg, who has weathered the stormy battles against the Orange lioopsters for two years, will be confined to the bench due to an infected toe. Reinhart is determined to keep the stocky captain out of action this week, if possible, since any further infection might prevent his playing for the rest of the season. With this rest Berg will probably be able to make the road trip starting January IT. sanford to flay However, Reinhart has experi mented with several new combina tions to use against the Oregon State quintet. Two possible com binations have been designated as the possible five for the starting line-up. In either case Glen San ford, one striper and member of the famed Salem high state cham pionship team of three years ago, will replace Captain Berg at for ward. The first combination places Bill Harcombe, white-haired hero of the W.S.C. series, at center, Willie Jones and Glen Sanford at the forward berths, Budd Jones and Sam Liebowitz at guard. The sec ond working combination which Bill Reinhart contemplates on sending onto the Corvallis maple court is composed of Willie Jones at center, Glen Sanford and Ron Gemmel at forward, Budd Jones and John Lewis at guard. In any event, the “Jones boys," Willie and Budd, plus Glen Sanford seem to have the best chance of getting first crack at their traditional ri vals. Clash Is Odd The clash between Beaver and Duck tomorrow night is odd in that the two leaders of the North west conference, both undefeated and each with two victories over the unlucky Cougars, will meet to decide the leadership of the con ference so early in the season.
