Con ference Of Rifle Squads Blythe’s Hope Seeks Sporting Basis foi Marksmanship; Wire Meets Suggested Varsity Positions Sought By 30 Candidates The possibility of competition between rifle teams on the same conference basis as that for othei sports was pointed out yesterday by Sergeant Harvey Blythe, coach of the University of Oregon rifle team. Instead of the present individ ual set up, with each team sched uling telegraphic matches with as many other colleges as possible, a regular conference would be formed under the sponsorship- of the National Rifle association. During the winter term the con ference schools would compete in a series of telegraphic matches which would culminate in a con ference meet at some central point, with both team and individ ual prizes awarded. Because matters of financial sponsorship and more detailed in formation will have to be discussed between the schools, Sergeant Blythe said that no action on the proposed plan will be taken till next year. Scores Good This Year During this week elimination is taking place to determine which of the 30 candidates will make up the 15-man team to represent the University in the opening matches. Sergeant Blythe states that scores made this year are as good or bet ter than those turned in at this time last year by the crack team which won 22 of 24 matches and placed it second in the national five-man championships and sev enth in the national ten-man matches. Although the 15 men who fin ish this week with the highest scores will make up the team for the first matches, the marksmen who do not place will shoot unof ficially during the matches and may displace members of the team in the future. The tryouts, as well as the telegraphic matches are of 40 shots to the man, 10 in each of the prone, sitting, kneeling, and standing positions, with a time limit of one minute for each shot.

Simp’s Glimpse By Ned Simpson Stalling Huskies Give Columnist a Big Bain; Footballers Play Joke Last night, my friends, you saw a fine exhibition of basketball, but played by a team lacking in intestinal fortitude—Or just plain guts, as the athlete himself would say. No, I'm not talking about our Web feet, who put up the gamest battle seen on the McArthur court maple in years, but about the great University of Washington Huskies. Pos sibly I’ll be accused of being a bad loser for what is about to be written—but here goes! Of course, it must be remembered that this is being written while the emotions have complete control of the brain (?) of the writer. Further along, perhaps, sanity will return, and in the face of cold reason, sorrow for the hidious rambling may cause the writer to leap into the icy waters of the Willamette, but— While Passion Rages * i The scene and situation you j all know.

Time, three minutes to go, with Oregon trailing by four points, two measly little baskets—and and yet how big they were! Three minutes to go, with Oregon run ning the Huskies off their feet, but, losing the ball on misplays, bad luck, what-do-you-want-to— call-it. Every shot rimming the basket, and then rolling out again. AND THEN THE HUSKIES BEGAN TO STALL! Good basketball? Coaches will tell you yes, and that’s the truth. Is it nice to watch? Sure, if you’re on the winning team. But as for being good sportsman ship—NO! NO! NO! nationality lleturns As much fun as we’ve had in moaning about the heart-break ing defeat of last evennig, still— and how this hurts—it was about the prettiest stalling seen this year, and the Huskies deserved to win. Oregon patently lost its head for a few seconds and lost its chance to catch up for that reason. What a thriller! What a thriller! The way little Glen Sanford showed the geat “Goose" Galer how to play the hoop game last night was swell. The “Goose" played fine basketball, but Glen had him stopped at every point, except just twice. Those times were when Galer intercepted passes and streaked down the floor to hole out cripples. At the same time he was holding last year’s coast high scoring champ to the two lonely baskets - both made in the last eight minutes, too—“Satchel,” as Glen is known to his teammates, made himself five points, and sparked the Webfeet to such speed that they couldn't keep up with Play Safe With Your Eyes Safeguard your vision with glasses, expertly prescribed for vour eyes, which will give you the pleasure and benefit of normal vision.

Press box opinion gave him a unanimous choice for the best man on the floor last night. Forgetting about basketball for the time being, let's turn the cal endar back to the time when the Oregon football team was in New Orleans. Complimentary tickets had been handed out, and all the men were trying to sell them for whatever they could get. Up in room 415 three plotters huddled, around the telephone. Said Chief Plotter Roscoe Carter, star guard, to his second in command, Bill Estes, ‘Let's call the desk and have them page Johnny Reischman. I'll tell him I’m an old southern gen tleman from Baton Rouge who wants to buy some 'comps’ and has he any he'd like to sell. You go down and be seen around the lobby so they won’t suspect its us again.” (Editor’s note: the pair had made it tough for some of the boys on prior trips, and were al ways being suspected of dirty work.) “Better still, let Ax (Alex Eagle, star tackle) call him, and' we'll both be seen in the lobby when the call is taken by Johnny.” No sooner said than done! Reisch man answered the phone, listened for a few minutes, stammered feverishly into the mouthpiece for a second, hung up, and then an nounced to the waiting public that he had a buyer for 20 tickets. Pandemonium! Then a long, long, long, long wait.

With only four minutes left in the game, Ralph Bishop tipped in a rebound and gave Washmgton its needed lead.
