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,

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.

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.

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.
In many Chinese restaurants in
America,walrus mustache hairs are

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

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

Phi Sigma Kappa defied the rules

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
