I i Simp’s Glimpse _ Reinhart's Cleanup Turns Spring Day To Rain, Says Sage 1 By Ned Simpson." Notice how suddenly it started to rain Tuesday night? And after such a nice balmy afternoon, too, Bill Keinhart like spring was here to stay. Well, according to Bill Hayward, the Sage of the Igloo, the reasons for this sudden reversal of policy on the part of the weather man is due to only one thing—Bill Rein hart and his baseball diamond. :i: * * “Yes, sir,” mused tho Colonel, interrupted in the midst of an orgy of ordering liniments, oint ments, balsams, and balms for bis athlete casualties,” every time Reinhart begins his annual spring cleanup on the practice baseball diamonds it's sure to start in raining. Doesn’t matter what kind of weather we’ve been having — it’s sure to change for the worse when he begins drag ^ . ging his scraper around.” May be this affinity for water ex plains why the baseball and hoop coach is sometimes called “Ad miral” and “Skipper.” Speaking of weather and baseball diamonds leads us on to the ques tion of which field will be used for the great American sport here this spring. FERA workers have been busy for the past two months moving dirt into the hollow that was the outfield on Reinhart field, and it will not be ready for use until next season. The 1934 champs will use the “Stoddard Flats” addi tion just to the south of the Igloo, end this plot is being rolled and raked into A-l shape for the sea son's opener sometime next term. Here’s a bit culled from Clar ence Dirks “Collegiate” column in the Seattle Times— Hec Edmundson, for one, does n’t think Oregon State has lost its last basketball game this year. “It’s become a tradition,” lie explained, “for Oregon, no mat ter how weak, to win at least one from the Beavers. I rather think Washington State will take one over in l’ullman and Idaho has a good chan.ee to re peat in Moscow.” The Huskies and Trojans may yet play for the coast champion- j ship. $ ■{• ♦ Talking about high scorers in basketball, the prize one of the l unch comes from Stanford, where they have a crack freshman hoop squad. It seems that they have a chap named Hank Luisetti, from cne of the San Francisco, high schools, who has scored 63 points in two games—34 in one contest with the Santa Clara frosh, and 29 V in the other against Galileo high school. And some people boast about a mere eight or ten points a game! »i: * And then there was the day when sports writers up and down the coast used to throw several kinds of conniption fit every time they had to write about Mikulak. or Antoncich, or just plain Psmith. They did derive some satisfaction, however, from the fact that these J gentlemen had easy-to-spell first names. Now a youth who starred for the St. Mary's frosh grid team has been discovered who has a first •name as peculiar and difficult as his last — Yotz Klotovich. That really IS a mouthful. k Master Dance Group Will Judge Aspirants Members of Master Dance will hold a tryout for all girls interested Wednesday, February 28, at 7:30 in Gerlinger hall. The girls trying out will be judged on their ability in techniques, dance composition, and improvision. They must have had two years of interpretative dancing and prepare an original composition for the tryout. HOOK ADDED TO SHELVES Reports of statistics of interest to commerce students in “Export Directory of Denmark, 1935,” edit ed by Kraks Legat and an 1868 Webster’s dictionary have been added to the reference shelves of the library as gifts. The Export ► Directory was edited in collabora tion with the ministry of foreign affairs and with the support of the ministry for commerce and indus try. The latter book is a gift of Yeomen Forge Ahead In All!-Year Intramural Scramble i Independents Cop Wrestling Championship Kappa Sig Bone Benders Nosed Out; Sigma Nu Finish Third — I j Groninger, Elfving Stage I Thriller in Heavy Bout By Kenneth Webber The Yeomen's array of grunt and groan artists proved to be a little too strong for the rest of the boys and as a result the Independent wrestlers gathered in two first places and three runner up posi tions to win the donut title and move out in front again in the all year intramural point totals. The Yeomen now have 629 points to their credit which gives them a comfortable margin over the SPE’s, with 596, and the Betas, who have 572. Most exciting of the seven matches yesterday was the heavy weight brawl between 206-pound Ed Elfving of Sigma Nu and Earl Groninger of Phi Delta Theta which was won by the former after two wild extra rounds. Is Nip and Tuck Brawl The two behemoths tossed and pounded each other around the ring in a manner that had the crowd of around 400 standing on the seats in excitement. At the end of the regular eight minutes Elfving had a riding advantage of 36 seconds, but as this was not decisive enough to declare a win ner, the contestants were ordered to fight two more rounds. Both men came within an ace of pinning the other at some time or other, but each managed to wiggle free before the finishing touches could be applied. Joe Renner, Kappa Sigma, suc cessfully defended his 165-pound title by pinning Elton Owen, husky Yeoman, after a terrific struggle which lasted seven min utes and 10 seconds. Neither grap pler had any advantage to speak of until Renner suddenly spun Owen over as they were rolling around the mat to pin his should ers for the victory. Kappa Sigs Second Bryan Ryan, Yeoman, and Larry Wheelon, Fiji, put on a wild ex hibition for eight minutes before the Independent man finally won the decision. More than once were the two wrestlers thrown, shoved, or butted entirely out of the ring as they went after each other hammer and tongs. Ryan won the decision with a riding advantage of two minutes and 44 seconds to 38 seconds. Kappa Sigma with two title win ners, one runner up, and one third place, finished second in the tourn ament, and Sigma Nu with two title winners took third place. Mountain Defends Title Other results follow: Watkins, Phi Sigma Kappa, pinned Frank Cooper, Sigma Chi, in three min utes and 09 seconds, 125 pounds. Hawkins, Sigma Nu, won one fall from John Keyes, Kappa Sigma, in the speedy time of one minute, 15 seconds, 145 pounds. Tom Mountain, Yeoman defending champion, pinned Harold McDow ell, Yeoman, in one minute 36 seconds, 155 pounds. John Reisch man, Kappa Sigma, won one fall from Clarence Lindsay, Yeoman, in one minute 18 seconds, 175 pounds. Ex-Duck Baseball Star Seeks Raise From Major Club REDWOOD CITY, Calif. Feb. 19. — (APl—Gordon “Oski” Slade made it known here today he is going to be a holdout when the Cincinnati Reds of the National baseball league start spring train ing February 28 at Tampa, Florida, unless he gets more money. “I’m worth more, and I'm not going to sign until I get it,” he declared. The star infielder and former University of Oregon player de clined to disclose what he was paid last year or how much of a boost he is asking. He is asking. He in sisted his stand was "no bluff,” declaring that rather than play at his present salary he will devote all his time to taking pictures of the big league stars and lecturing to service clubs, a hobby he has developed while wintering here. He said he expects to quit baseball “in four or five years anyway.” Specializes in Long Distance Driving ^r~i >5W V JIMMV , NEPHEW OF JACK WHITE, ONCE BRITISH OPEN CHAMPION, “FROM WHOM HE LEARNED THE SAME...

TO BE ALL-CAMPUS In past years, the ball has been more or less limited to art stu dents, but it will be an all cam pus affair this year, according to the chairmen. Advance ticket sales indicate that the dance will be a success, said Tom Blanchard. Only masked and costumed persons will be admitted. Frosh to Use Same Lineup In Rook Tilts Yearlings to Call It <J>uits After Final Series Gene Shields, freshman hoop coach at the University of Oregon, sent his Duckling squad through a furious workout here at the Igloo yesterday afternoon in preparation for the season’s final games with the Oregon State Rooks this com ing weekend. The yearling quintets will wind up their annual series with two contests, the first Friday at Cor vallis and the final tilt Saturday night at McArthur court. The opening pair of clashes last week were split, the freshmen winning the first 36-32 and dropping the second 24-19. Shields plans to stick to his regular lineup of Jack Stafford and Dave Silver, forwards; Ford Dan ner, center; and Dale Lasselle and Vernon Moore, guards. The only change looms at guard, where Lee Canessa, former Astoria flash who played a fine game of ball at Cor vallis, is giving Lasselle a stiff battle for first team honors. Silver, ex-Lincoln high all-star, continued to pile up points in the two contests with the Beaverlings. He tallied 20 points in the series to increase his season’s total to 121 points, an average of 10 per game. Stafford, his running mate at Lhe front post, ranks next in line with 87 counters. Resume (Continued from I’ai/c One) of discussion, although committee members said they carried at least partial administration approval. The major alteration written into the bill flatly stipulates that, re gardless of business conditions, the tax to supply funds for unemploy ment insurance should be one per cent for the 1936 calendar year, rising to two per cent in 1937 and 3 per cent in 1938. Relief Rill Disputed WASHINGTON — President Roosevelt's $4,880,000,000 relief bill was subjected today to such a bombardment by a uew Democratic critic that senate administration leaders failed in their effort to get a showdown vote on the contro verted McCarran amendment. A late day effort to produce an agreement for a vote tomorrow on the McCarran prevailing wage pro posal likewise failed and the lead eis resigned ---themselves to more prolonged debate.

Lawrence and M. H. Douglass, librarian, in the ar rangement of the previously drawn plans at a conference in Portland on Monday and Tuesday of this week. The newspapers, to be conven iently placed in a large artificial’^' lighted and ventilated basement room, are now stored in the base ment of Friendly hall and are available from 2 to 4 daily.

Subscription rates $2.50 a year. W. Jones Slated For Non-Scoring Berth at Seattle Vi'ebfoot Center Will Play Side-Court Against Huskies Willard Jones, Oregon's lanky center and second high scorer of the northern hoop conference, will have little chance to raise his scor ing average in the coming games with Washington in Seattle next Monday and Tuesday nights. Bill Reinhart, Webfoot mentor, plans to keep Jones in the same offensive position at one side of the court that he held down against Oregon State last Saturday. Tak ing Jones' place in the pivot post under the basket will be either Johnny Lewis or Sam Liebowitz, Reinhart’s sophomore hopes. The pair alternated at that spot against the Staters and helped spark the Oregon offense to a high peak for most of the game. Willie Scores on Pivot Shota The majority of Jones' scoring this season has resulted from one handed pivot, shots from in front of the basket. Placed near the sidelines he wil lhave little oppor tunity to shoot, as shown by the fact that he tried very few field goal attempts. Both Sammy and Johnny Lewis are developing into good ball handlers and have aided materially in speeding up thfc Webfoot offen sive. Liebowitz came through with one of the best games of his career against the Beavers, tallying 11 points and chalking up four assists. Roland Rourkc, heretofore prac tically unknown substitute who broke into the starting lineup against the Orangemen, will prob ably retain his position at Seattle. Glen Sanford, Budd Jones, or Lie bowitz will alternate at the guard posts, with W. Jones at center and Rourke and Lewis forwards. YWCA Secretary Visits Group Here Miss Helen Morton, national Y. W. C. A. secretary of students, will be here next week to visit) the group here on Wednesday and Thursday. This will be Miss Morton’s first visit to the Oregon campus since she was appointed secretary last fall, it will also be her only visit this year. She will talk to students on na tional student movements and ac tivities in the Y. W, C. A., what the aims of the national group are, and a few of their projects. She will also lead the meeting of the vocational discussion group. Several entertainments are being planned in Miss Morton's honor, the Upperclass commission will sponsor a potluck supper, the Frosh commission is holding a fireside, and luncheons with the cabinet and the advisory board will be given. Condon Holds (Continued from Page One) saber tooth tiger from the LeBrea tar pits in California.

The Webfoot 10-man squad add ed five points to their first week's score of 3732, but nevertheless fell before the remarkable score of 3762 turned in by the University of Ida ho. The Vandal marksmen fired one of the highest team scores re corded in the Northwest in many years, Sergeant Blythe stated, with one shooter scoring 391 points out of a possible 400, a near world’s record. Thomson Leads VVebfoots Oregon’s score topped that of the University of Missouri, with 3683, and of Natrona cunty high school in Casper, Wyoming, coached by a former Oregon grad uate, Lieutenant John Holmwood, with 3610. The Webfoot score of 3727 was also turned in for Ninth Corps area matches. Earl Thomson, Heppner youth, last year's second place national champion, led the Webfoot shoot ers in last week's matches with a 382 score. Ken BeLieu, Eugene, was one point behind, while Nor ris Perkins, Milwaukie; W. R. Rice, Portland; Bob Parker, Eugene, and B. J. • Corss, Portland, and Del Bjork, Astoria, all shot over 370.
