! Simp’s Glimpse Columnist Attempts to Compare Men on Tuo Rival Basketball Teams 'T By Ned Simpson Taking life in the proverbial bands we slip a sheet of paper in the typewriter to begin to com pare the personnel of the two teams that meet tonight for the third time this year—the Oregon Ducks and the Oregon State Beavers. So far, as you know-, the Beavers have won both of the games played—one by an un mentionable score, the other by a two point margin of victory. Well, here goes: Beginning1 with the forwards we find that Oregon State is repre sented by Capt. George Hibbard and Wally Palmberg. These two men have functioned very smoothly together this season, with the steady, all-round excellent play of Hibbard somewhat eclipsed by the brilliant left-handed shots of the former Astoria ace. They have furnished a scoring punch that ha? accounted for most of the Beaver victories. For the Webfeet tonight, Johnny Lewis and Rollie Rourke will probably start in place of Captain Bill Berg and Ron Gem mell. Both these men are primar ily offensive threats, and while they may outshine the Orange pair in that departmnet, they still must concede an advantage to Palmberg and Hibbard on the defense. We give the Beavers the edge here. At the pivot position for Ore gon we find the league leading scorer Willie Jones. Opposed to him will be Conkling, 6 foot, 4 inch Beaver jumper. Willie is primarily a forward and away from the center circle he out shines Conkling plenty, although the Beaver sophomore outjumps him. Oregon gets a decided ad vantage here. At the guard position we find! Lyman and Bergstrom for the j Beavers and Sanford and either j Budd Jones or Sammy Liebowitz. Sanford is far better than Berg strom, although the Beaver whirl wind is a better shot Glen has: stopped all the big-shot sharp- ! shooters this season with great success, and in the first two Beav er-Duck encounters he was about the best man on the floor. Budd Jones is equally effective, although he plays a more rough and tough game. If he gets the call over Lie bowitz it will mean plenty of fire works when he and Lyman meet. Liebowitz, originally slated to start the game, is so erratic in his flashes of real brilliance that it minimizes the big advantage that would be ours if he were "on.” Reading over wliat I’ve written above it would seem that Oregon has the best team by a two-to one score. It’s true that they are better on paper, but to date they haven’t had the dash and flash that the conference lead ing Beavers have. If they click tonight it will mean that the score will favor Oregon.

The game was featured by the playing of Dave Silver, Duckling forward, who scored 16 of his team's 36 points with shorts from all angles. He sunk seven field goals and two foul throws for his grand total of the evening. Two other Oregon freshmen also stood out by their fine passing and floor work. They were Jack Stafford, forward, and Vernon Moore, 210-pound guard. Stafford sunk one field goal and six free throws for a total of eight points, while Aloore contented him self with one field goal. The teamwork and fire of this pair, however, was largely responsible for the lopsided score. umnie mans aiowiy The bace started off in a hesitanl manner, with both teams doing plenty of bad passing. Oregon be gan to hit the basket first, and the taste of blood settled the frosh down to steadier but more deter mined ball. Silver, Danner, Las selle, and Stafford all connected with the hoop several times until at the 19 minute mark the score stood Frosh 18; Rooks, 3. Hakala, Rook forward, finally connected with a long howitzer for the first field goal for his team. A few sec onds later Bailey dropped another one in, and the half eended Frosh, 18; RoolA, 7. The Rooks started off the second half like a different basketball team, and it was evident that Coach George Scott had told them something exciting. The rejuven ated Ravens began hitting the hemp from all angles and soon had the score 18 to 12, in favor of the Frosh. At that point the uncanny eye of Dave Silver came to the rescue of the freshmen and the score changed to Frosh, 21; Rooks, 12. Game Gets Rough Both teams began to play rougher ball at that point and numerous free shots were awrded. Silver sank two more field goals, and was given a needed rest. Mil ler replaced him. Moore dropped one in, Canessa made a gift shot and it stood Frosh 26; Rooks 15. Soon after that, Gene Shields, Frosh mentor, sent in an entire new team composed of Dickson, Long, Crawford, Haas, and Shev ach who ably stood off a Rook ral ly in the last few minutes of the game. The final score: Frosh, 36; Rooks, 22. For the Beaver yearlings Vanelli and Kolberg played fine games, with Bailey, Rook forward, lead ing his teammates in the scoring end of it by tallying eight points. This afternoon at 1:00 p. m., in Corvallis, the two teams play the second installment of the 1934 four game series. Stan Summers refereed the game. The box score is as follows: Frosh Stafford Silver ... Danner .. Moore .. Lasselle Ragsdale Caneesa Haas ....

Cressman Writes Paper on Indians And Civilization Faculty Member’s Article Appears in Journal L. S. Cressman, prfessor of an thropology and sociology, is the author of an article which has been published in the Oregon Educa tional Journal, on “The Indians of Oregon.” In his article, Professor Cress hian considers the Oregon Indian as an individual and from the standpoint of the civilization he has produced. He studied and re corded tribal variations and the spread of language due to migra tion and says that the diversity of language of the Oregon Indian is convincing evidence of the great diversity of life within its borders. Explains Customs Physically, there is a great va riance of tygres. The two types of bodily modification in which the Indian indulged were tattooing and I the binding of their heads, in or der to produce a desired headshape. One of the illustrations of Pro fessor Cressman’s paper is a tri bal custom which was practiced. The young Indian would travel in tc enemy territory to lie in hiding hear the enemy camp, and memor ize their song which he would later recite to his own people. a 90-day jail sentence when he appeared in court and admitted that he was the ringleader of a group of 15 young people who stole three chickens from a farm near Roseburg. Others in the group were juveniles. Send the Emerald to your friends. Discussion Group Tells County Plan To Two Audiences Dahlberg Gives Pro, Cou Townsend Survey William Hall, Kessler Cannon, and William Labursky, members of the men’s public discussion group, accompanied by W. A. Dahlberg, coach, returned yesterday from a trip on which they appeared be fore the Kiwanis club in Oregon City and the general community group of Sweet Home. Hall and Cannon presented the problem of county re-alignment before about 50 members of the Kiwanis club among whom were many county officials. The gen eral conclusion of the group as in dicated by the discussion forum which followed the presentation was that some sort of county re organization is becoming increas ingly imperative in view of chang ing governmental problems, Dahl berg said. About 600 people were present to hear Labursky and Hall set forth the same problem in Sweet Home. Following their discussion, Dahl berg gave a brief but comprehen sive survey of the advantages and disadvantages of the Townsend old age pension. The response of the audience to the Townsend plan reflected the conviction that, al though some old-age pension pro gram should be adopted, that plan is not a plausible solution to the pension problem. Visits in Port land Frances Cor coran, librarian in the business ad ministration building, went to Port land yesterday where she will spend the weekend visiting her family. instructor Recovered From Ill ness Lee C.

It had been previously planned to hold this smoker in the Y hut, but the smoker has assumed pro portions which bid fair to make it one of the biggest athletic events of the entire year. If plans go through as scheduled, the Bradshaw bout ought to be one of the snappiest mix-ups which has ever been put on at the Uni versity. Bradshaw is making a trip to Portland this weekend and after much investigation, it has been discovered that it is for the sole purpose of arranging a match with a well known Pacific coast champion. The identity of this man, while hinted at, has not ac tually been revealed and until Joe’s return, Fred Gieseke, in charge of the smoker for the Yeomen, will not make any definite statement other than this: "We are planning the biggest fight, in all probability, this cam pus has ever seen and the quality of men we have lined up are far superior to the talent we had only hoped to get. It’s going to be a wow!” Admission to the smoker will be 25c and already, Bradshaw has as sured Yeomen officials, there are more than 200 townspeople whose attendance he personally guar antees. have already indicated their inten tion of entering the contest, Cas teel said. Further details may be obtained from the speech division. It isn’t too late to enter yet!
