Ducks Confident of Beating Huskies Oregon Needs Win Tonight to Stay In Fight for Title Webfoots Ready for Big Series; Changes In Lineup Possible; Bishop Is Husky Star PROBABLE STARTING LINEUPS Oregon Washington Howell .F. Egge Liebowitz .F. Loverich Patterson .C. Bishop W. Jones .G.Wagner Rourke .G. MeKinstry Officials: Ralph Coleman, Cor vallis, referee; Frank Heniges, Portland, umpire. When Washington’s booming basketeers storm McArthur court tonight they may run into abso lutely anything in the way of resistance. Howard Hobson has plenty of surprises planned for the fire-eat ers who cage the casaba for Uncle Hec Edmundson. Oregon may use a slow break or a fast break, a man-for-man defense or a zone de fense. At Seattle last week-end the Webfoots fought the Huskies with a fast breaking offense and their customary man-for-man type of defense. They failed to win in Washington’s pavilion, but that does not mean the Huskies can’t be overcome by that style of play. Oregon Out for Blood Whatever system Hobson may use tonight, the Goliaths are out for blood. Every man is confident of a double victory for the series. It is necessary for Oregon to make a twin killing to stay in the upper ranks of the title scramble. Starting lineup for the Ducks to night may differ from previous opening quintets, but Hobson is ex pected to start the five men who played at Seattle last week. Big Wardlow Howell, whose 6-foot 6-inch frame pierces the stratos phere above all the rest of the Grenadiers, will be at his custom ary forward post and beside him will be Sammy Liebowitz, famed Bronx Bomber. Subs May Be Used Chuck Patterson will jump for the tip at center, and at guards for the Webfoots will be Willie Jones and Rollie Rourke. Several reserves have been showing up well in recent practice sessions and may get into the contest, may possibly even start. Second stringers given a cnance to crash the regular five tonight include Ken Purdy, ball handler par excellence from Long Beach junior college; Chief McLean, whose knee injury has healed; Wayne Scott, long range special ist from Southern Oregon Normal; Johnny Lewis, junior veteran from last season’s squad; and Budd Jones, rugged footballist. Courtney Recovered Little Bill Courtney, who won a starting berth by his showing in the Oregon State game two weeks ago, has been bothered by an in fected toe, but was himself again last night and will probably be used in the big battles. Ralph Bishop and Chuck Wagner are the big guns of Washington’s attack, while defensively Captain Bob Egge and Bob McKinstry shine. Ed Loverich is another gentleman who enjoys nothing more than humiliating opponents by poking the sphere through the net. Egge, one of the best feeders on the coast, will open at forward to night instead of at his usual back court spot in order to give Wragner a chance to check Howell from a guard position. Egge is called ‘Washington’s Liebowitz,” because of his feeding ability. In addition to being a tight checking player, DANCE Friday Night WILLAMETTE PARK ■(Jury McLean's Baud o Admission 40e Call 1D2D l Free Transportation ■BBOBBni Wagner is noted as a howiter artist. Bishop High Scorer Bishop is the latest successor to Bobby Galer, all-time high scorer in the northern division. Last Sat urday he eluded the Webfoot de fense to cage 19 points. Substitutes apt to see action for the Huskies are Jack Gannon and Hunt Paterson, forwards; Pal Rosenberg, center; and Walt Kastner and Ross Werner, guards. Gannon, Rosenberg, and Paterson are veterans from last year, while Kastner and Werner are sopho mores. Paterson played formerly at Grant high in Portland. Reserves aren’t apt to be needed tonight, however, for Hec Edmund son's lads are iron men. The Huskies are considered the best passing team ever developed by the canny Edmundson; they are dead eye dicks on shots, and all around they compare favorably with any aggregation in Washington history. Snap-Shots iMiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiRiiiitHiiiimtiiiiitiiiiiiittintiiimiiitiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitn iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniriiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiuiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil Willie Jones Last year’s all Northern Division center and second highest scorer, Willard Jones, has as his ambition this year the winning of the coast hoop championship by Oregon. Willie thinks Oregon will over come the invading Huskies this week-end if the Webfoot squad does lots of fierce scrapping. ""Ever since* he entered Washing ton high school in Portland, “Stretch” has been right in the middle of all activities he has taken part in. Besides being chosen all-city basketball center his final year, Willie earned two letters at football center and three awards playing center field in baseball. In the 1921-32 basketball season which followed his graduation from high school, Jones played in dependent basketball for the Port land Rosebuds, a team which played 75 games during the year. Willie and Bob McChesney, former Grant star, together scored over 1500 points in those games. In the fall of 1932 he enrolled at Southern Oregon Normal school with Budd Jones to play basketball for Howard Hobson. Willie also played football and baseball that year for the SONS before transfer ring to Oregon. Although he is majoring in B. A. and foreign trade, Willie’s chief occupation during the summer is farming and ranching along the lower Columbia river. This is his last year. Mrs. Clarence Leslie Moves to California Mrs. Clarence Leslie, formerly Martha Jewell, who has been em ployed for the past six years as sec retary to J. O. Lindstrom, business manager of the University, has re signed her position and has moved to San Leandro, California. Mrs. Leslie was married the first part of January in Eugene and left here Wednesday. No one has been named yet to fill the vacancy. 'IMIllllllllllllllllllllliilliiiiiiilllllllMiiiiiiiilliiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniii Frosh Ready For Astoria Warren and Players Anxious for Victory Coach “Honest John" Warren and three of his players will return to the scene of their greatest triumphs tonight with the freshman basket ball squad to do battle with the mighty Fishermen of Astoria high. Along with Warren will be ten Frosh ball players including Bob Anet, Wally Johansen, and Hank Nilsen, three former Astoria stars and members of state championship quintet in 1934 and 1935. Those making the trip are Laddie Gale, Bob Smith, Gale Smith, Leon ard Heller, Dee Phelps, Gale Fouts, Rod Hansen, Bob Anet, Wally Jo hansen, Hank Nilsen, and Manager Barnes. Warren expects to reach Astoria late tomorrow afternoon where they will stay overnight be fore proceeding to Tillamook where the Frosh meet the Tillamook Cheesemakers Saturday night. They will return to Eugene Sunday. Warren holds a lot of respect for the one-handed shots of All-state Ted Sarpola, Astoria’s star forward, and the bruising play of Henry Kokko, 6 foot 6 inch center. Sar pola has averaged nearly twenty points against major competition in Astoria’s games to date. Twice he has rung the bell for 27 counters and he is nearly always making near 20 points per game. Sarpola is flanked by the rugged Kokko who is not far behind the brilliant all state when it comes to all-around playing. He is constantly getting the ball off the backboards and is a high scorer from under the bas ket. Against the Fishermen that he led for seven years', Warren intends to start the following lineup: for wards, Johansen and Fouts; center, Gale; and guards, Anet and Nilsen.

FANS GIVE INCONSISTENT £# OFFICIATING AS REASON • FOR INTOLERANT ROOTING OREGON VARSITY, FROSH, IDAHO WILL CONQUER IN NORTHWESTERN BATTLES • By TOM McCALL The lemon and green squad has j been functioning with all the alacrity and precision of a well oiled Swiss movement in its prac tice sessions during last week. The passing and shooting has been ex cellent. The players are in high spirits. The Webfoots are really “due” tonight and tomorrow night. They are headed for a weekend fraught with victory. Washington will have to leave town with a couple of losses writ large on their previously perfect record. [ The slow breaking Beavers will tumble the Huskies in one of the games of the Monday and Tuesday night series, and then our lads will control the loop top. The frosh journey northward to Astoria where they wrill meet the Warrenless but hard driving Fish ermen, tonight. Tomorrow, they clash with the Tillamook Cheese makers at Tillamook. Looks as if the Yearlings will have a couple more scalps to augment their pres ent beltfull. You can always plan on the Astorians for a whale of a battle, however. They’ll die hard. Idaho is headed for its first con ference win when the Vandals tangle with their cellar rivals, Washington State, tomorrow night. The Vandals are back at full strength. Bill Katsilometes, veter an forward, is fully recovered from a Charley horse which kept him out of most of the last Oregon State game, and Wally Geraghty seems to have no ill effects from the nose dive that he took to dream land in me same contest. In a few letters that came to this column in defense of offensive dem onstrations on the part of basket ball audiences, it was pointed out that the nature of the officiating- in these parts justifies almost any ac tion, including lynching. Although the rope and limb idea is out, there might be some thing to such an argument. In consistency has been noted throughout the Northwest in the refereeing of nearly all games. Bill Pauley of the Idaho Argo naut remarks that the Vandals, after losing the first game of the late Oregon scries, “came back to play great ball and truly out class Oregon. They couldn’t beat the officials, however. Although Idaho made more field goals than Oregon, the Ducks won because of fouls. Twenty were called on Idaho and only seven on Oregon. This ratio of fouls seems to the writer to be normal because it was necessary for the outlengthened Vandals to resort to “extra legal" tactics to stop the heavy scoring local giants. (Still the Oregon back ers booed every penalty called on the home team. They are an intol iiitiiiiiiitiiiimiiinitiitiiimiili erant group at best. But to get on with the expose . . . ) In the heat of the recent Wash ington-Oregon series, Ward Howell, in trying to prevent a Washington field goal, sprang high in the air and scooped a Husky howitzer from between the jaws of the .Oregon bas ket. The bucket was allowed, and the Washington shooter was given one free throw besides. In the first game of the Idaho ■Oregon State series in Corvallis, Norm Iverson of the Vandals pro pelled a beauty toward the Beaver basket from mid court. Seeing that the ball was headed for pay hemp, Cliff Folen, 6 foot. 6 inch Stater, leaped upward and deliberately dug the oval from the basket. This time the officials did not allow the bas ket to count and called no foul on Folen. Such inconsistencies give referees and umpire an unhealthy color in the eyes of all. Women Basketball Officials to Meet The second meeting of the officials committee for women's basketball will be in the main gym at 5 o'clock this afternoon. Girls are requested to come dressed in gym clothes, since actual practice, as well as oral in struction, in refereeing and umpir ing will be given. Those who were not at the last meeting, but who are interested, may come also. Qualified referees and umpires are given a whole check in women's athletic activities, and scorers and timers receive a half check. They may officiate ht any women’s intramural basketball games on the campus or at high schools in nearby towns. Oregon Transient Head Here Today Clarence Reynolds, Sociology Staff Confers Clarence Reynolds, former secre tary of the state relief administra tion, and for thc'past two years di rector of the federal transient serv ice in Oregon, will be on the campus today for conferences with mem bers of the sociology staff. Mr. Reynolds and the sociology staff will prepare information blanks and outline methods of pro cedure for a research to be carried out in connection with relief admin istration, according to Dr. Philip A.

The Chi Omega team beat the Orides by a score of 31-26 and the Alpha Phis won from Hendricks hall by a 46-15 score. Diving, 40-yard free style, 40 yard breast stroke, 40-yard side or overarm, 20-yard free style, and 20 yard back stroke were events con tested. Each match was concluded with an 80-yard team relay. Outstanding for the Orides was Marian Smith who made the high est score of the afternoon, 15 points. Olive Lewis, Chi Omega, was next highest scorer, with 11. Molly Cun nuningliam made the best showing for the Alpha Phis, and Maxine Getsch was Hendricks prize con restant. Betty Riesch has been appointed manager of swimming in place of Elaine Goodell. Olive Lewis is of ficials chairman. Today Kappa Alpha Theta meets Alpha Phi at '1:00 o’clock at the Gerlinger pool.

It is hoped, said Dr. Parsons, that the results of this study will enable the planning board to place valuable information relative to future re lief before county and state admin istrative bodies. Low Scores Prevail In Men’s Loop: Coed Games Are Speedy Phi Sigs, Phi Delts, Belas Win Lop-Sided Tilts; Cougill Lays Up Day’s Best Record Phi Sigma Kappa defied the rules of superstition in defeating Zeta hall 13 to 6 in the initial “B” bas ketball game yesterday afternoon. Both quintets played on close terms during the first half with the score ending 6 to 4 in favor of the Phi Sigs. A trio of baskets by Cou gill, Corman, and Woodard in the final quarter, together with a free shot by Jordan, gave the winners their 13 points. Vernon Cougill, forward for the winners, holed three baskets, for high point honors while Pat Friz zell tossed in a pair of baskets for the hall five. Phi Belts Again After exerting frantic efforts in maintaining a one to two point lead for more than three quarters, suc cess accompanied the basket shoot ing inclination of Phi Delta Theta in the final minutes of play to net them a 10 to 4 win from Delta Tau Delta. Neither quintet gained a decisive lead during the first three quarters, the score reading four to three at the opening of the third. In the final period, however, the Phi Delts reg istered three baskets to secure then final six-point lead.
