Phi Delta Thetas team, intra
mural basketball champions last
year, defended its laurels in the
opening game of the new season
with a crushing defeat of the Ore
gon Freemen, a newly organized
idependent team, 37 to 7.
Missing only Slim Wintermute
and Bob Pickens from last year’s
team, the Phi Delts, with Sid
Milligan, Ed Strohecker, and Bing
Crosbie leading the attack, worked
smoothly and with great ease to
score consistently over Don Cas
ciato’s Clowns. They led, 11 to 3,
at the end of the half.
After a scoreless first quarter
in which the Phi Delts were miss
ing innumerable shots, the Free
men wilted under their fast pace
and the fraternity men began
scoring. With Milligan and big
Strohecker taking the ball off the
backboards, the Phi Delts were
constantly putting Crosbie and
Strohecker in positions to score.
The two together rang up 26
points.
Crosbie led the scoring with 14
points while Strohecker ran up 12.
Casciato led his own team with
3 points. Summary:

Sigma Chi 13, Pi Kaps 10
In a battle of beef, the Sigma
Chis beat out the Phi Kappa Psis,
13 to 10 in a wild and rough game.
Both teams were composed mainly
of ex-football players who were
unaccustomed to the basketball
floor and committed numerous
fouls.
The Sweethearts led all the" way
through the game but recived a
scare in the third quarter when
George Varoff and Dick Sleeter,
Phi Psis, began hitting the basket
to draw within two points of the
Sigrr. Chis, 11 to 9. Morrie Ander
son put the game cn ice in the last
few minutes when he intercepted
a Phi Psi pass and scored single
Varoff, with only six points, led
both teams hi the low scoring
game. Bob Braddock was high
handed.

Allow Varoff to Attend
Eastern Track Meets

A post .season game between the
University of Arizona and the Uni
versity of Oregon at Tucson, Ari
zona, on December 4, was author
ized last night by the Webfoot ath
letic board at its regular monthly
meeting.
The Webfoot-Arizona clash, first
ever played between the two
schools, gives Oregon a nine-game
schedule for the 1937 season. Ne
gotiations arc understood to be un
der way for a second post-season
encounter with Louisiana State

The athletic board also voted to
allow George Varoff, sophomore
student and holder of the world's
pole vault record, to compete in
two famous eastern track meets

Varoff will jump first at the Mel
rose indoor meet in New York on
Saturday night, February 6. He
will remain in the East a week to
compete in the Boston Gardens

The great Webfoot vaulter will
have a chance to regain lost laurels
in the eastern invasions, for it was

Washington Slate Leads
Staters Throughout to
Take 23-20 Win
Two quick baskets in the closing
minutes of the game gave the
Washington State Cougars a slim
23-to-20 win over Oregon State’s
Beavers in the Staters’ opening
conference fray played last night
at Corvallis.
With two minutes left to play,
Earl Conkling, vetteran Orange
center, dropped in a gift throw to
put the Beavers in the lead, 20-19,
but the Cougars retaliated with two
quick baskets by Frank Johnson
and A1 Hooper as the final gun
sounded.
Only three field goals were col
lected by the closely-guarded Bea
vers, who caged 14 of 19 foul toss
es to keep them in the game.

Ducks Break Even
In Two Games With
Washington State
Dave Silver, Bol> Anet
Lead Hobson’s Crew
To 13-22 Win Friday
Night
Sophomores Star
Hub Tultle, Oregon Slate
Forward, Suffers With
Sprained Ankle
With an even break recorded in
the season’s first two conference
starts Howard Hobson's Dashing
Ducks yesterday settled down to
a week’s intensive drill in prepara
tion for Friday night's battle with
Oregon State college at Corvallis.
Washington State's great return
game Saturday night in eking out
a narrow 37-to-32 win over Oregon
after taking a 42-to-22 drubbing
during the previous evening prov
ed a major surprise to Webfoot
hoop followers. The Cougars show
ed much improvement in their
shots, floor work and defense the
second night, while the Webfoots
seemed tired from the fast pace
they set Friday night.
The work of big Dave Silver,
veteran forward, and Sophomore
Bob Anet, hu3ky Astoria speed
ster, was the highlight of the sea
son's opening encounters. Silver
scored 20 points Friday and fol
lowed up with 12 the following
night to give him an average of
16 points per game. The drive of
Anet in taking the ball down the
floor and his stellar work in re
covering the ball from the back
board and from his opponents wa3
largely responsible for the Ducks’
win.
Sophomores Wally Johansen,
Slim Wintermute and Laddie Gale,
and the veteran Bill Courtney also
showed up well for Hobson’s squad.
The outcome of Friday’s game
with Slats Gill’s question mark
Beavers should be a toss-up. Gill’s
team has shown little in the way
of offense but has looked good on
defense. The Beavers seldom
flash in their pre-season games,
but are perennial pennant threats.
Hub Tuttle, one of the three vet
erans on the Orange squad, prob
ably will see little action due to a
sprained ankle which has kept him
out for the past week.
