Quacks
Ey TOM McOALL,
After spending a couple of eve-]
nings at the Igloo watching the
up and down Ducks mangle and in
turn be mangled by the Washing
ton State Cougars, your commen
tator was pleasantly surprised
when he dropped in on the intra
mural basketball finals in the
men’s gymnasium yesterday.
The Alpha Tan Omega and Ihe
Phi Delta Theta “B” teams were
engaged In a well executed
struggle for the championship of
their class. The blocking, pass
ing, and shooting of both teams
was a revelation.
Neither had really had much
of an opportunity to acquire
other than the rudiments dur
ing the short season, yet both
squads had seemed to have
scraped together some good
scoring plays and a tight de
fense.
The floor work and predeter
mined methods of play of the ATOs
made them a smoother appearing
team than the Phi Delta. But the
Barnmen had drive, deadeye shoot
ing ability, and a faculty for fol
lowing the ball that gave them
the 20 to 10 victory.
Big Stan Riordan and Wee Wes
ley Clausen, both fresh from the
infirmary, provided scoring punch
and cool headed field generalship
that sparked the Phi Delta on.
The ATOs floored a pair of ball
handling wizards in the persons
of Kirk Kldredge and Sam Fort.
A skillful and experienced Abba
Dahlia team that had been lying in
wait for the “A" league title since
school began last fall, saw its
chances take a jack-knife as slim
giant IJrgel Wintermutc, and Phi
Delt teammates ground out a 10
to 0 lead in (lie first few minutes
of tlie championship game.
The Dahlias played a brilliant
ly desperate type of hall that
brought them up within two
points of the l*hl Delts immed
iately after the second half
started, but t'roshie, Winter
mute, and Stroliccker developed
hot hands and motored to a safe
margin of victory.
Never did I see a sweeter
pair nl' hull hawks in any league
than Iting Croshie of the l’hi
Dells and Stuart Marsee, Alihu
Dahlia forward. Doth snap
around (he floor like lightning
and are eruek shots. They would
liolli go on my all-star team, as
would Center \\ intermule and
tJuard Slorheeker of the eliani
pions.
In selecting- captains for both the
"A" and “B” all-stars, there is not
much doubt that Marsee and Clau
sen are the logical men. The for
mer is a whirlwind of inspiration
to his teammates, and Wee Wes
is the steadiest, canniest field gen
eral in either league. 1 just over
heard the committee that picks the
all-stars mention that there were
a lot of Phi Dolts on the “A" selec
tions. but that “they were good
enough to deserve the honor.” Any
team that averages nearly 40
points a game against its oppon
ents 10 must have the timber.
Coed Semi-Finals
Postponed; Pi Phis
Play Susan Campbell
Women’s semi-final basket
ball games have been postponed
because all leagues have not
completed preliminary play
offs. An exhibition game is
scheduled between Pi Beta Phi
and Susan Campbell hall this
afternoon at 4:80 in the main
gym to replace the semi-finals
as part of the WAA Health
week program.
Huestis Claims
People Like Cells
Anls Superior to Humans;
Surplus Fooil Hoarded
For Hungry Fellows
“There is a marked parallelism
between groups of people and
groups of cells,” said Dr. R. R.
Huestis, professor of zoology last
night in a lecture befbre Alpha
Kappa Delta members. “Cells,
however, are more sensible in that
they obey a central authority, the
brain, and are ready to sacrifice
themselves for the good of the
body. People have to learn this
obedience for the good of the whole
before they can attain great
heights in development of civiliza
tion,” said Dr. Huestis.
Ants, in Dr. Huestis’ opinion, il
lustrate the nearest approach of an
animal organization to that of the
organization of cells. Ants possess
two stomachs—one his own and
the other belonging to “every
body.” The ant puts just enough
food in his own stomach for his
immediate needs, and puts any
surplus into the common stomach;
then when he meets a fellow ant
that needs food, he gives up the
extra food to the needy. Some ants
called “honey pots” are allowed to
grow fat and when the community
is in need they must give up this
extra food stored in their bodies
to the others.
In cell structure, the cells use
only that part of the food in the
blood stream which they need for
their immediate use and the rest is
stored by the fat cells for need in
emergencies.
“People must come to see this
fact that the good of the body
concerns their own welfare," said
Dr. Huestis. “And they must learn
to preserve the brains of the
country instead of fighting against
superior intellects that rule them.”
Society is coming to realize the
need for following the type of
structure followed in cell combina
tion as evidenced in their accept
ance of dictators in some countries,
says Dr. Huestis. He went on to
say that the present administration
embodied many of the principles of
work by the individual for the com
mon good in new deal policies.

Intramural
Wrestling
Starts Today
Grapplers Must Weigh in
Between 9-12 a. m.;
Lightweights First
The University of Oregon intra
mural wrestlers will test their
prowess in a four-day tournament,
first bouts beginning at 4 this af
teernoon in the men's gymnasium.
All wrestlers must weigh in be
tween 9 and 12 a. m. when official
entrance sanctions will be given on
the eligibility of each participant.
No wrestler will be eligible for
this tournament unless he has
weighed in by the noon hour.
Lightweight Play-offs First
The matches in the lightest
weight division will be staged first
with other matches following in
weight order. Drawings to deter
mine the individual matches with
in each division will be held at 1
p. m. Those grapplers without sec
onds will be provided with someone
to assist them during the fight.
All wrestlers participating in
the tournament must be at the
gym at 4 p. m.
The tournament rules state that
in order for a championship to be
designated in any division there
must be at least three entries. Al
though two entries are required
from each house before it can se
cure entrance points, an individ
ual wrestler can compete for the
championship in his class even
though he is the only entrant.
Five points will be awarded to win
ners in each weight, with three
points for the runner-up and one
point for the semi-finalist.
Sears to Referee
The time allowed for the bouts
includes six minutes for the pre
liminary matches and eight min
utes for the final bouts. In case of
a draw at the end of the first bout,
there will be two-minute extension
periods called to decide the win
ner. An advantage of 30 seconds
is being allotted for preliminary
decisions with 45 seconds necces
sary to decide the winner in the
final bouts.
The officials for the donut tour
nament include Fred Sears as ref
eree. with Marion Weitz and Nephi
Jorgensen as judges.
Ciithbert Speaks
To Garden Club
The various kinds and locations
of rock gardens was the subject
of an address to the Eugene Gar
den club last night by Fred A.
Cuthbert, associate professor of
landscape architecture.
“Rock gardens are nice in their
place,” said Mr. Cuthbert, “but
most people haul a pile of rocks
into their back yard and dump
them. Then they put a little dirt
around and plant some shrubs and
think they have a true rock gar
den. It is dificult to build a good
garden on the average 50 by 100
lot because the idea of a true
nature in the raw setting must be
obtained to produce the desired ef
fect," Mr. Cuthbert declared.

All-Star Fives Picked
Two powerful Phi Dolt teams stormed the citadel of donut fame yesterday, swarmed over
the ramparts, and hoisted a double flag of victory. Smashing and driving, vet displaying
beautiful precision in every maneuver, the winners rode rough-shod over the Abba Tdabba
“A’s” and the Alpha Tail Omega “B’s”. 26-13 and 20-10.
Their superiority was never in doubt, as both teams piled up heavy first-quarter leads, and
followed up their send-off with consistent, sparkling basketball. Seldom hard-pressed or in
danger, the Phi Pelt quintets pounded along with more dexterity than many college varsity
teams. *
A galaxy of all-stars in the Phi
Delts’ “A" diadem yesterday out
played and overwhelmed the Abba
Dabbas. Thirty-two minutes of siz
zling basketball at a hurricane
pace left the winners unperturbed,
but was a bit too fast for the Abba
Dabbas, who previous to yesterday
•had mowed down opposition as
impressively as the Phi Delts.
Winners Get Early Lead
The Phi Delt thrusts were deadly
from the first minute on. Grabbing
a wild rebound, towering Slim
Wintermute opened the scoring
with a cripple. Crosbie sneaked
under the basket for a perfect lay
in to make it 4-0. Driving Ed Stro
hecker was right back with anoth
er cripple. Pickens set up a long
one from the corner, and at quar
ter-time the Phi Delts led 8-0. Of
four fouls called in the first canto
not one was converted.
Slim Wintermute zoomed into
the ozone to bounce another re
bound through the net as the
second quarter opened. A 10-0
score was too much for the
Dabbas. Charging like angry bulls
they surged back in a rally that
didn’t end until the Phi Delts
started pulling away after the
figures had stood 13-11.
Abba Dabbas Rally
Ed Jacobs looped in a beautiful
howitzer from mid-court for the
Dabbas’ first score. Maury Ward
seconded with a perfect bank shot
from the deep right corner. Fred
West converted for another point
after he was fouled by Sid Milligan.
Pickens was back to sink a gifter
for the Phi Delts and Crosbie
scooped up a free ball for another
field goal.
It was 13-5 till A1 Tingle sank a
gifter for the Dabbas, then
snatched the next tipoff and let
go a perfect howitzer to make it
13-8 at half-time.
Stuart Marsee, who shared with
Crosbie all-around ball-handling
honors, tapped in a rebound for
the Dabbas to make it read 13-10.
When the lanky Wintermute got
elty, “Za-Zoo-Za,” and “The Day I
Let You Get Away.”

a bit riled the Dabbas were
awarded a technical, which Tingle
promptly converted to make the
score 13-11, closest of the game.
Crosbie countered with a gifter
for the Phi Delts, and Pickens
sneaked under the hemp for a
cripple. Wintermute's pivot shot
from the foul line brought the
score to 18-11, and the rangy cen
ter finished up the third quarter
with a short one.
Slim was right back as the last
quarter opened to ring in another.
Ward sliped in for a cripple, the
Dabbas’ first score in several min
utes. With the score 22-13, Win
termute converted a foul. Pickens,
stool pigeoning under the basket,
was given one, and converted
another foul shot as the game
ended, 26-13.
x esteruay s ±s nnai was a.
hodge-podge of wild scrambling
and bail-hawking, brightened by
excellent defenses, but poor bas
ket work on both sides. The Phi
Delts were off to a 6-1 lead at
quarter-time. By half-time it was
13-5, as Stan Riordan chucked in
five points and Bob Bauer made
four.
Short Rally Fails
The Alpha Tau Omega hoopers
strove mightily to stem the tide,
but with Riordan placing the tip
offs to suit Phi Delt plans, and
Vernon Sprague feeding the casa
ba in to a couple of hopped-up for
wards, the losers didn't have more
than a prayer.
They stabbed back as the second
half opened, Jimmy Ballew follow
ing a foul shot with a long toss
that made the score 16-8. “Wee
Wes” Clausen slipped under the
basket for a cripple as the last
quarter got under way, but Chuck
Erwin was right back to push in
a rebound for the ATO's. It was
18-10 with about three minutes
left.
Clausen Stars
With seconds to go, Clausen, for
mer Portland prep star, pushed in
a one-hander from under the hoop
for the Phi Delt victory, 20-10.
Excessive whistle-tooting kept
the game at a slow pace. Jack
Berry and Sam Fort of the ATO
squad went out via the foul route,
as did Riordan for the winners.
