! Duck Tracks By CLAIR JOHNSON Oregon Locks Speed On Maple Court; OSC May Not Send ISatators For today’s sports chatter we turn the column over to guest writer Ned Simpson, end on the 1934 Webfoot grid team—take it away, Ned . . . With the basketball team bask ing on the one-horse town (maybe it’s two, come to think of it) of Pullman, Wash., in quest of two more wins over the W.S.C. cagers, it leaves the writer in a quandary ever the question of how to start off his career as a columnist and guider of the destinies of the sports page. All the times—as a fresh man—when we wished that we could be sports editor for just fif teen minutes or so crowd back to mind like pale ghosts—and boy! how they can haunt!—and now we wish that there had been a little more preparation in the art of “How to write a column.” Well, here goes! Basketball has been taking up ail the headline space these days, and it is only fitting that mention be made of the situation now con fronting our own Webfoot varsity. Maybe you’ve already' noticed that speed is the element that has con tributed most materially to their two downfalls already this season. A week or so ago the Beavers out sped and outfired the stoeking-less Ducks from start to finish, and again on Saturday night when Ida ho was dumping them 39 to 21, it was little Wally Geraghty’s light ning dashes under the basket that spilt the beans. It looks like Oregon will have to devise some sort of special de fense to take care of the advan tage in experience and ball hand ling lost through lack of speed on the part of most of the team. Two Duck hoopers, Gemmell and San ford, do have the acceleration nec essary to cope with OSC’s Palm berg, Hibbard, and Bergstrom; Washington's Galer and Wagner; WSC’s Johnson; and Idaho's Ger aghty. Sanford looked like a mil lion that unfortunate evening in Corvallis not so long ago—so good that many were heard to remark that he was the best man on the floor. However, one man’s efforts etc.—. Gemmell is the speediest man on the squad, but is incon sistent in his shots. These two are the only ones who have more than the average zip on the getaway. * * * Washington's Huskies, fresh from the slaughter of a couple of Beavers, comes to Eugene Friday and Saturday nights on a Duck hunting expedition, bringing with them Bob Galer, sensational sharp shooter who uses either a rifle or shot-gun to good advantage. Ore gon will be primed for victory over the Seattle quintet, however, for last year the Huskies took four straight from the Lemon and Green, and it wouldn’t be at all surprising if the contests take on some of that do-or-die atmosphere so common to Husky-Webfoot ri valry on the gridiron. * * * Gossip from some of the boys in Yearling Hoopmen To Break Layoff Tonight Phi Delts Win Semi-final Go From Rivals S.P.E. Handballers Lose As Victors Reach Final Round _ Kappa Sig Takes Colors Into Bela Mix Encouraged by the verbal 'sup- i port of their house brothers, the! Phi Delt handballers swept through i their donut opponents, the S.P.E.’s, yesterday to reach the finals in the intramural tournament. As a result of the conquest, the embattled Phi Delta Theta men whittled at least 10 points off the 327-303 point margin that separ ated them from the Sigma Phi Ep silon interhouse athletes, who stand on the third rung in the all year ladder. Hollenbeck Downs Sprague Jack Mulder turned in the first win for the Phi Delta by smother ing Art Clark in the second rank singles, 21-3. 21-17. Les Hollen beck, fancy S.P.E. swatter, wiped Vernon Sprague from the boards in the first rank singles, 17-21. 21-13, 21-15, by the skillful use of corner shots and kills, evening the match. However, Bob Van Nice and Bob Hunter captured the nerve-tingling doubles event from the S.P.E. teamsters, Bob Farley and Ken Lottridge, 21-15, 15-21, 21-15, for the Phi Delt victory. Kotchik Eliminated In the last of the quarter-finals the Kappa Sigs overcame the Pi Kaps two matches to one, although tneir luminous rirst rant smgier, George Kotchik, was eliminated by steady, heady Floyd Dorris, 21-12 and 21-16. They will tackle the Be tas today for the right to meet the Fhi Delta, Howard Bobbitt, second rank Kappa Sig, subdued Ralph Clark. 21-8, 21-10, while the Kap Sig dou bles duet of Harry Lucas and Grant Fade checked in Ed Raudsep and George Niemi after a 21-5, 21-5 count. the know has it that the Beavers are seared to send their swimming team against the Duck mermen. Don’t blame them much, at that, with Kirby, Sug, Scroggins, and the two Reeds already busy mak ing records—and so early in the season. The Staters lost a couple of their best men through gradua tion, hut still have Vic Smith and several others who they evidently want to save for a more propitious moment. * * * Up at the Igloo they’re showing off some unique pictures taken the other day in the deep snow—re member ?—of Col. Bill Hayward’s taeksters. The shots were taken down on Hayward field and show some of the Colonel’s pupils run ning a track meet in the drifts. The pictures are to be sent out over the country by one of the big news syndicates, according to Bruce Hamby, and will rate lots of pub licity for Oregon's track team be cause of the unusual situation of summer sport in winter weather.

The College Out line Series, a series of small book lets on numerous academic sub jects, has been very popular among the students as an aid in studying their courses, reviewing, and for pre-exam concentration. These booklets are the only group of outlines in existence that are a complete digest of require ments of all college courses. They are written by authors who have specialized in their respective sub jects through training and teach ing experience. The varying size of type select ed in order to show at a glance the relative importance of each thought, fixes important informa tion definitely and quickly in the leader's mind. Although the text is abbreviated it is complete in all essential features of a regular textbook and contains maps, tabu lated dates, review questions, dia grams, indexes, charts, bibiogra phies, and laboratory problems. Professor Warren D. Kmith usesj the booklet on geology for a regular ; textbook supplemented by lecture:;; in one of his classes. Among those on sale at the: Co-op are: “An Outline of Ancient. Medieval, and Modern History,” byj John Rickard (revised edition): “An Outline of Educational Psy chology,” by Rudolph Pintner and; others; “An Outline of the History, of Europe, 1500 to 1848," by Henry!

There are lots of things to see in Chicago! “The owner of the Cardinals.” Mike casually remarked, “is a young millionaire sportsman, Charles Bidwell, who by the way could buy this University, and not give it another thought!” Mike’s next game is in Portland, February 3, after which he is go ing back to Chicago with the Card inals. ? Betas, Sigma Hall,DUs Win Net Contests Thre«> Grab Race Leads Following Victories Yesterday Omega Hall, Clii Psis, Plii Dells Also Victors Beta Theta Pi, Delta Upsilon, and Sigma hall, with two wins and no losses, stand out as the teams to heat in the intramural volley ball league as the result of victor ies turned in in yesterday's games. Most exciting of the six matches played was the Beta Theta Pi-Ab bs, Dabba struggle, won by the Be tas in successive games by scores of 15-6 and 19-17. With Hugh Mc Credie and Norm Hampton, giant Betas, doing most of the damage, the fraternity men had little diffi culty in winning the first game by a decisive margin. In the second game, however, the Abba Dabbas suddenly came to life and twice came from behind to tie the score before finally losing the only extra point match of the day 19-17. Sammies Lose Led'by Pelton and Wilson, Sigma hall kept their record clear of de feat by downing the Sammie 15-6 and 15-5. Rotenberg and Saffron played an outstanding game for the losers. In another thriller Delta Upsilon took the measure of the Kappa Sigs after two close struggles, by scores of 16-14 and 15-12. The vic tory put the D.U.’s on top of the heap in their league and definitely established them as one of the fa vorites of the tournament. Dolts Defeated Omega hall broke into the whn column for the first time by de feating Delta Tau Delta 15-10 and 15-7. The Delts were handicapped by having only five men on the floor, but despite this fact put up a good struggle in the first game. In the other matches the Chi Fsis beat the Phi Sigs, 15-7 and 15-6 and Phi Delta Theta “B" downed Sigma hall 14-16, 15-7, and 15-12. Five Groups Sign For Competition Five women's living organiza tions have signed up for interhouse competition in swimming, accord- j ing to Martha McCall, swimming manager.

At this point, Rogers, lanky W.S.C. howitzer expert, sank a long one to tie the score 21-21. In the wild scramble that ensued Rogers gained possession of the ball and swished in another long arc. Holstine converted a foul throw in the last few minutes of play to secure the Cougar lead. Ralph Rogers, W.S.C., was high point man of the game with 12 counters. Willie Jones of Oreogn was not l'ar behind with 11. Oregon's basketball progress this season has not been very encour aging. Starting at the crest of the conference standings, the Oregon team gently tobogganed down the slope to fourth rank. The ill-fated Cougars still rest at the very bot tom of the ratings with five losses and one victory. Even though W.S.C. should drub Oregon again tonight, it would be almost impos sible for the Cougars to supplant any other of the conference teams in ranking.

DucklingFive Plays Salem Vikings Here Till With High Schoolers Scheduled for 7:30 On Igloo Floor Silver, Austin, Stafford, Moore, Dick Start The University of Oregon fresh men basketeers will get a chance to get a little basketball into their system after a week with no ac tion, when they will play Salem high school Vikings in the first of a 16-game schedule, starting at 7:30 o'colck tonight at the igloo. The layoff suffered by the Year lings was due to faulty train ser vice that forced them to cancel their game with the Klamath Falls high school Pelicans last Saturday night. However, head-man Shields has been working his men overtime with nightly scrimmages amongst themselves in order to keep his men on top for tonight’s game. Vikings Weak The Vikings will not present a very strong quintet against the Frosh, due to a wide gap left in the team by graduation. Only two vet erans form the nucleus of the Vik ings' power, lying in Vern Sal strom, forward, and Bob Perrine, guard. Both of these men are let termen and have played on the Capitol City team for the past three years. Coach Ollie Huntington will of fer a fast moving team that de pends on speed and shortness alone. Trying to eliminate the long distance shooting, to the clever working of the team together, Huntington’s men will give the Yearlings a good, fast evening. The Ducklings will present to Oregon fans a different picture than was evident in the early stages of the season. For a group of men who have never played to gether before, the Frosh have developed into a smooth, fast-pass ing club under the careful guidance of Shields. Itr' Five Frosh Shine Thus far, five hoopsters have shone brightest in (he limelight for the Frosh anil appear to have the best chance for first team posts. These men are Dave Silver, cen ter, from Lincoln high in Portland; Bob Austin, forward, Klamath Falla; Jack Stafford, forward, University high, Eugene; Vernon Moore, guard, Long Beach, Cal.; and Bill Dick, guard, The Dalles. Others that comprise the team are A1 Regsdale, Bob Beard, Ford Dan Aspirants for Frosh Varsity Tennis Team Meet 4:30 Thursday Varsity and freshmen tennis aspirants will meet Thursday afternoon at 4:30 in the class room of the men's gym, accord ing to Paul Washke, tennis coach. All prospective racquet wield ers are urged to attend, as the meeting is very important. Miget Guard Smallest man on the Duck hoop squad is sophomore Arne Faust, pictured above. Small though he is, Faust is speedy and keeps the reg ular guards busy worrying about their positions. ner, Dale Lasselle, Jack Crawford, and Bard Purcell. In their three game series with the Irish Cash store five in which they won one and lost two, the apparent improvement was obvious in each contest. Losing the first two games by 8 to 10 point mar gins, the Ducklings came back in the final contest and trimmed the Irish by a one point margin. Shining out in both contests, Dave Silver and Jack Stafford sparked the first-year men through out. In those games both men split high point honors between them selves. Shields will start his first string, composed of Silver, center; Staf ford and Austin, forwards; and Dick and Moore at the guards, and then if they move far enough ahead he plans to substitute freely in the remainder of the game, giving one and all a chance to get a shot at the hoop. Successful Merchants Know That It Pays to Advertise. Most of the more successful merchants have built their volume of business which they now have by advertising. They realize the merits of good advertising and place ad vertisements in good mediums consistently through the years. . The Emerald has a complete coverage on the campus as it is read daily by the students, faculty and friends of the University. This is an advertising medium which the successful merchant cannot afford to overlook in his attempt to in crease his business. By advertising in the Emerald, merchants are able to tell about their values and merchandise to a class of people who are in a position to make purchases from them.
