Pi Phi Team Upsets Kappa Alpha Theta In Girls Tilt, 21-3 Hendricks Trims Sigma Kappa, 24 to 2, in Second Feminine Hoop Contest; Games Rough Pi Beta Phi plucked a 21-to-3 victory from Kappa Alpha Theta, and Hendricks hall trimmed Sigma Kappa 24-to-2 yesterday, both games being characterized by rough playing. The Thetas threw away their scoring chances on wild passes which were largely intercepted by the fast-moving Phi Phis, who showed a harmonious teamwork that kept the ball in their scoring territory most of the game. Barbara Weston, Pi Phi forward, was high-point player with 13 counters. Regan McCoy did all the Theta scoring. Goeteh Gets Tip-offs The Sigma Kappas, playing- their first game of the season, were un able to keep up with the haliers, and Maxine Goeteh, Hendricks hall jumping center, gave her team every tip-off the first quarter. The Sigma Kappas did not cap italize on their scoring chances until early in the second half when June Hurst sank one ball. Al though they had the ball in their territory more during the remain der of the game, they did not suc ceed in raising the score. The Hendricks forwards, Louise Watson and Jean Gulovson, gar nered 12 points apiece. There were no substitutions for either team.

Snap - Shots By Wendell Wyatt CHIEF McLEAN A regular job catching for a professional baseball team is the goal of Clifford “Chief” McLean, Chief McLean spc-ody Indian 'for ward, when he graduates from college. He has had quite a bit of experience back of the bat, too, catching two years at Benson high in Portland and in summer leagues in Ore gon. McLean, who is one of the fast est men on this year's varsity bas ketball squad, was once referred to by the venerable Doctor Spears, former Oregon grid coach, as the best floor man he had ever seen. One series of events in Mac’s life will always be very vivid to him. He will always remember playing with Southern Oregon normal un der Howard Hobson for two sea sons and in those seasons, beating the high-geared Webfoot varsity six out of eight contests. While earning two letters in basketball, the Chief played regular halfback on Hobson’s SONS football eleven. Makes Portland All-Stars For two years while he played ball at Benson, McLean won all city honors at forward. In his last year he was third in individual scoring in the Portland prep league. Wally Falmberg was again named as the most outstanding opponent of the Oregon team this year. “He has everything you can ask of a ball player,’’ said Mac regard ing the Beaver ace. “He has every thing a basketball player needs. He is an excellent shot, a good defense man, and a smooth floor man.” Chuck Wagner of the championship bound Huskies received McLean's vote as next best Oregon opponent this year. Liliard Is Best Center “Joe Liliard is about the best basketball center I've ever seen,” declared McLean. Liliard was the crack negro football and basket ball player who attended! Oregon several years ago, only to have to drop out because of professional findings submitted by the coast conference policeman, Jonathan Butler.

( Ducks Grimly Determined to Stop Cougars Oregon Basketeers Point for Contests Next Week; McLean Crashes First Five An atmosphere of grim deter mination surrounded McArthur court yesterday afternoon as How ard Hobson’s varsity basketeers continued their intensive prepara tion for the last half of a confer ence season which to date has been disappointing. The Webfoots, who have dropped j their last five games in succession, : are out to win their remaining eight and make the season a suc cess. Earnestness has character ized each workout since the holo caust at Corvallis Saturday night, and it is no secret that the Oregon hoopmen are plotting to annihilate the Cougars of Washington State here next Monday and Tuesday. Team Works on Fundamentals Monday night the Grenadiers battled John Warren's classy frosh outfit in a regulation length practice game, and last night, with the yearlings resting for an eve ning trip to Oakridge, the varsity lads fought it out among them selves. Startling lineup changes are def initely not on this week’s bill of fare in the Duck camp. Hobson is concentrating on the fundamentals of his fast-breaking style of play, stressing practice in ball handling, passing, and speed. Not only was Oregon’s shooting "off’ in the Oregon State game, but also the passing and ball handling were sloppy. McLean on First Five Speed is one of the things Men tor Hobson wishes more of, and the answer is that Clifford (Chief) McLean will probably be in the lineup that opens the Washington State tilts. McLean was a light in the fog in the Beaver massacre, and he seems definitely in line for a first string guard berth in fut ure contests. The Indian firebrand has speed to burn, handles the ball well, is a good shot, is one of the best dribblers in the loop, and can provide a spark when teammates lag. At Benson Tech and later at Southern Oregon Normal McLean burned up the boards repeatedly, but a knee injury this winter kept him out of early competition and he got off to a slow start. Teaming with McLean on the first five in this week’s practice sessions have been Willie Jones, Ken Purdy, and Chuck Patterson, with Ward Howell and Dave Silver alternating at center. Bill Courtney has also been used on the quintet. This combination fits well into fast breaking plays and apparently has Hobsons first string call at pres ent. Cougars on Way Yesterday the latest aggregation of regulars scrimmaged with an assorted crew of basketball odds and ends—football players, ineli gibles, and the like. The opposing team, which gave the Grenadier first stringers a hard fight, in cluded Dale Lasselle, Bobby King, Slim Wintermute, Bill Harcombe, and Ray Jewell. Jack Friel and his Washington State basket brigade are scheduled to leave Pullman today for Corval lis, where on Friday and Saturday they meet Oregon State. Then they continue on to Eugene for conflicts in the Igloo Monday and Tuesday. At present the Cougars hold third place in division standings, a notch in front of Oregon. Senior Ball (Continued from Page One) tion of flowers. “We probably won't go so far as to make girls ; check corsages,’’ remarked Michek, “but it just won’t be good taste to wear them.’’ The corsage barrier evidently has been made on behalf of male pocketbooks. “Without flowers,” runs the directorate’s opinion, “the cost of the senior ball will not be as much as the average formal which necessitates a dollar for the dance and another dollar for a cor sage.” Tickets for the ball, be-' cause of the cost of bringing Hal, Grayson’s orchestra up from Los .Angeles, will be ijl.dO. I Sport GALE, JOHANSEN, ANET FOUND BEST AMONG THE YEARLING CROP THE QCACKER STARTS PICKING ALL-STARS AGAIN; HAS 3 FROSH ❖ Quacks By TOM McCALL A pleasant way to pass a rainy afternoon and at the same time accomplish the writing of a column without too much labor is to Bei)d one’s efforts toward picking an all-star team of some sort. Of course the basketball season is a little too young as yet for the choosing of Northwest varsity stars, but I think it would be well at this time to select the best of the first year hoopsters in this section. * $ * Because of the gaps that will be left in the ranks of the college teams of Idaho, Washington, and Oregon by graduation, this year’s crop of better-than-usual freshmen will fling many a basket for their alma maters during the ensuing seasons. That is why Ai Stump, sports editor of the University of Washington Daily picked his favorite frosh a few days ago. That is why the Quacker follows suit. Stump’s selection looked like this: Laddie Gale (Ore.) and Wally Johansen (Ore.) forwards; Bob Rissman (OSC1 center; George Ziegenfuss (Wash.), and Cassius Dol quist (WSC) guards. The Quackers picked the same lineup with the exception of putting .\net of Oregon in place of Dolquist. * * $ Does anyone know why these men have been honored? Well, Gale and his 13 point per game average has taken the fancy of all who have seen him play until he is now hailed as a second Spook Robertson. He is big, fast, and a dead eye that handles the ball well. Johansen is an even six feet of smoothly moving wire. He’s not heavy, but he has speed, magical floor control, and is a very accurate passer and shot maker. Ziegenfuss appears to be the best of the Washington Husky pups. Not overly great in physical stature, he has sparked his mates in offensive as well as defensive play. Bobby And replaces Dolquist on the Quacks team because he is the better ball player of the two men. Anet doesn’t go in much for bucket getting, as does Dolquist with his 63 points in nine games, but he engineers many of the scoring plays for Gale and Johansen, and his “worrying” tactics cause all opponents a pile of grief. Center is the weakest position on the whole hypothetical squad. Slim Wintermute, Oregon’s young ineligible, is by far the best of this year’s crop of pivotmen. He scrimmages against the varsity occa sionally, and all six foot eight of him acts like it knows the game of basketball, every angle of it. But to repeat, Wintermute is ineligible. That automatically gives all-star to Rissman who bests Dee Phelps of Oregon and any northern contenders, because he is steady and a good shot. Robert Garrets on Well Received In Music Recital Robert Garretson, pianist, ap peared in concert in the school of music auditorium last night at 8 p. m. There was an unusually large audience in attendance and their response rivaled the enthusiastic ones offered Frances Brockman last year. The selections offered represent ed such noted composers as Mo zart, Bach, Beethoven, Schumann, and Chopin. Perhaps the most masterfully presented number was “Polonaise in A-flat March” by Chopin. As the number, famous for its emo tional gradations, its quick chang es from loud to soft, its shifts of tempo, built climax upon climax, Mrs. Hoover (Continual from page one) Leah Parker, and Mrs. Elisha Large. Girl Scouts, dressed in their green uniforms, will serve the tea. Mrs. J. Bealle and Mrs. E. H. Hall have charge of the servers. Mrs. Stafford is in charge of the pour ers for the afternoon. Loudspeaker connections will en able the guests in alumni hall to listen to Mrs. Hoover when she addresses the Girl Scouts in the AWS rooms at 4 o’clock. Interesting displays of Girl Scout work will be on exhibit in the sun room of Gerlinger. Various tables will contain examples of the work done by the girls for merit badges. Following a dinner in her honor, to be held in the evening of Febru ary 19, Mrs. Hoover will leave for her home in Palo Alto, California. Before coming to Eugene she will visit in Portland. Time: Nowl Place: 1 1 th Near Alder Who: College Boys and Co-eds .| Tommy May’s ft Shop the audience was held breathless and for long- seconds following the smashing conclusion, sat absolute ly silent, and' then crashed through with thunderous and enthusiastic applause. Garretson, who in his brief ca rter has appeared with the Port land Junior symphony as guest art ist, won a state contest, and dis tinguished himself in both the le gitimate and popular fields, has a promising future, in the opinion of leading musicians here. Phi Beta Plans Dance Recital Members of Phi Beta, music and dramatic art honorary, are making tentative plans for a dance pro gram to be put on soon. The exact date has not been set. Mrs. Faye Knox is the director for the dance group and the danc ers are Maxine Goetsch, Elaine Un termann, Josephine Oberturf, and Ethel Johnson. The dances will be accompanied by the music division of Phi Beta, including Joella Mayer, Eucille Beall, and Theresa Kelly. Frosh Take Ridge Cagers Easily, 39 to 9 Game Willi Wentiling Booked for Tonight; Three More Games Listed for This Week Laddie Gale, Wally Johansen and Bobby Anet sparked John Warren's freshman hoopers to a decisive tune-up victory over the Oakridgc preppers last night, 39-9. It turned out to be a light workout for the frosh campaigners, who used most of the string in the practice ses sion as preparation for strenuous work next week. Tonight the yearlings will travel out to Wendling for a return en gagement with the Wendling town j team. With one victory over the loggers already dangling from their trophy belt, the freshmen ex pect to make it another practice session. A game with the CCC’s tomor row night, and Warren’s hoopers will be off over the mountains for a pair of games with Medford and Klamath Falls. Warren’s stiff training and play ing schedules are rapidly making iron men out of the yearlings. Five games in five nights is this week’s schedule, and if the former Astoria high coach’s charges come through them all without signs of weaken ing it will indicate that his tech nique worke well indeed. Business Group To Initiate Six Beta Gamma Sigma Banquet Tonight Beta Gamma Sigma, national honorary in business administra tion, will hold initiation Wednes day, February 12, at 0:30 p. m. in the banquet room of McCrady's cafe, for the following students: Donald Farr, Millicent Olin, Am brose Oderman, Grant Bade, Max Saunders, and Kenneth Smith.

Amato, especially, played a rug ged game and had six personal fouls called on him but, due to a shortage of players on the dormi tory quintet, was allowed to remain in the game. Riordan, on the oth er hand, did not commit many fouls except when he came into contact with Amato.

I've been seeing these new CHOLO JACKETS a lot lately, and the more I see of them the better I like them. They’re just the thing for campus and sports wear . . . durable, economical (only $1.75), comfortable, and clean looking. What more need be said, except perhaps a few words from some of the boys. If “Bathtub Eddie” explains his enthusiasm by saying, "I’m a Phi Delt, and naturally I believe in cleanliness. Now I’ve washed my CHOLO JACKET ten times (honest I have) and it hasn’t lost its size or color yet. And that half zipper, oh boy.” The great Doctor Hoblett, a CHOLO enthus iast, explains its greatest worth. “As you know, old pal Hearall, I’m perhaps the greatest ball machine player on the campus, and naturally I need a great many pockets to carry my slugs around in. Now my CHOLO JACKET has three big pockets, and with it on, I’m a cinch.” Honest fellow. I’m not kidding. They are the real McCoy. What’s been said about these new CHOLOS by myself and my worthless friends is the gospel facts. They’re on sale now at McMor ran’s. Go down and get one today, and then you'll know why old H.
