    Washington State Turns Tables on Webfoots, Winning 42-28
t
THE
Firing
Line
By PAT FRIZZELL
Billy Reinhart aroused the East
with his basketball team at George
Washington university last winter,
and now our Bill is showing the
lads back there even more tricks,
George Washington has won
eight consecutive games and this
coming Saturday will go into Mad
ison Square to face New York’s be
loved Long Island university.
Reinhart’s gang, in winning eight
in a row, has outscored all but one
opponent by at least 20 points. The
team holding them to the “low
score” triumph was Nebraska, and
the tough Cornhuskers, from the
basketball hot-bed of the world,
were tumbled by a 19-point mar
gin. * * *
Who do you think is leading
Reinhart’s outfit to all these walk
aways? None other than a lanky
gentleman ..named ..Jack ..Butter
worth, who only a year ago was
doing his stuff for Oregon Norma!
down at Monmouth.
Butterworth, whom Reinhart
brought to the coast from Indiana,
was once ticketed to perform as a
W'ebfoot here. Transfer of Rein
back to George Washington
changed all that.
Anyway, the former Wolf ace
has been ringing up the’ buckets al
most at will back there in what
metropolitan writers choose to
call the “big time” of basketball.
He scored 17 points against St.
John’s, which in the hoop sport
rates as a major outfit.
When Reinhart brought Butter
worth to Monmmouth, with him
came a midget firebrand named
Dave Osborne, who also played
two seasons for Oregon normal,
and, like Butterworth, was sched
uled to transfer to Oregon. My
source of information doesn’t list
Osborne as a member of Reinhart's
first five at George Washington,
but it’s a safe bet that the little
fellow is back there. He and But
terworth were as clever a Da
vid-and-Goliath combination as you
could find.
Incidentally, the teams George
Washington has rolled over by
those 20-point scores are Johns
Hopkins, Marshall, Nebraska,
Mount St. Mary's, St. John’s of
Brooklyn, Elon, and Wake Forest.
Some of these don’t rank so high
in football, but several are leading
basketball powers.
An even break with Washington
State on the Cougars’ own floor
is all Webfoot followers could have
hoped for. Bobby Anet, Silver,
Purdy, and the rest of the gang
did mighty well to gain a split.
This Inland Empire tour is a
tough grind, and two wins in the
four games are usually satisfac
tory. On paper, the Ducks rate an
edge over Idaho, but it isn't safe
to prophesy about such an unknown
quantity as the Vandals. If the lads
split at Moscow, they’ll be doing
well enough.
Idaho has a new coach and a
new system of play. Forrest Two
good, a pupil of Southern Califor
nia's Sam Berry, tutors the Van
dals this season, and his proteges
held Washington’s vaunted Huskies
to close scores at Seattle. Being a
disciple of Berry, Twogood proba
ably employs a slow, deliberate of
fense, made up of set plays. And on
their home floor, the Vandals are
likely to make those plays stick.
Twogood coached freshman bas
ketball for eight years at Southern
California. He joined the Trojan
staff after graduating from the
University of Iowa in 1929.
Here’s something you may haw
known about Twogood, but I’ll bet
two cookies you haven’t thought of
it. tie’s the same Twogood who for
several seasons pitched for Cleve
land in the American league.
Yep, Mr. Twogood is a baseball
ist. He w orked a number of games
for the Indians and is at present
the property of the Cleveland club.
He’ll probably play no more base
ball because of an arm injury.
Short shorts .'. . Lyle Smith, Ida
ho sophomore guard, held Chuck
Wagner of Washington to two
points in the two games the Van
dals played at Seattle . . . Which
s something . . . Wagner scored 21
points against UCLA . . . Remem

ATO’s and Betas Hold
Undefeated Record in
Donut League Action;
DtJ’s Win in B League
By CHUCK VAN SCOYOC
111 a bitterly contested A league
intramural basketball clash which
nearly ended in a brawl, the Betas
humbled the Phi Sigs yesterday,
18 to 9.
Neither team scored until the
last minute of the first quarter,
when Steve Anderson, Vern Moore,
and Wilson SiegmUnd dropped in
cripple shots in rapid succession to
place the Betas in the lead, 6 to 0
£or the initial period. LeRoy Mat
tingly dropped in a cripple, but the
points were nullified because of his
travellir^- with the ball.
. Following the rest period, the
Phi Sigs opened fire when Fetsch
and Hobson dropped in cripples,
but the attack soon bogged down
and the Phi Sigs were unable to
score again in the first half. A
sucker shot aild a foul toss by Bob
Beard completed the scoring for
the Betas in the second quarter,
bringing half-time score to 9 to 4
for the boys on the millrace.
Close Checking Features
The third quarter was featured
by close checking by both teams.
Siegmund managed to pot two for
the Betas, while Mattingly tossed
in a foul shot for the Phi Sigs.
Hobson starred for the Phi Sigs in
the final period, when he potted
two beautiful pivot shots from the
foul line. Siegmund and Moore
matched these points by tipping in
cripples.
The final minute of play was
climaxed in a wild-eyed affair.
Adams of the Betas was ordered
to the bench for unnecessary
roughness and the Betas, playing
with but four men, managed to
stave off many wildly-tossed shots
until the final gun sounded.
Siegmund led the Beta scoring
with nine points, while Hobson
topped the Phi Sigs with six count
ers.

DU B 9, Alpha B 8
In a game which saw the lead
change twice in the last minute of
play, the DU B team eked out a
)-to-8 victory over Alpha hall B.
Both teams were very wild in
shooting and neither scored until
the closing minutes of the second
quarter.
Lyon opened the scoring for the
DUs with a cripple which was im
mediately matched by Woods of
Alpha. Later in the quarter,
Woods dropped in another to bring
the halftime score to 4 to 2 for
Alpha.
Sheedy put the DUs ahead early
in the third quarter by sinking a
foul shot and a cripple but it was
soon erased when Shea of Alpha
potted one to place Alpha in the
lead once more. In the final ses
sion Kemler pushed in one for the
DUs which once more placed them
in the final minute of play.
During the wild scramble of the
closing moments, Walker of Alpha
dropped in a cripple which seemed
to put the game on ice, but the un
expected happened and Lyon
squeezed in a cripple in the final
seconds to pull the game out of
the fire, 9 to 8.

Friday Marks
Resumption of
Little Civil War
Baby Beavers Reported
Strongest in Decade;
Ducklings Headed by
Ex-All-State Sarpola
Freshman hoopers of Oregon
State college and the University of
Oregon are busily sharpening their
artillery this week for a renewal
of their annual "little civil war
feud.
Scene of the first battle will be
in Corvallis ■ Friday evening, and
the two rivals move down to Mc
Arthur court the next night to give
local fans a chance to. witnei-y
thrill-packed actoin.
Oregon’s Ducklings settled down
last night to some intense prac
tice, following a busy week of ac
tion. The frosh have waded
through five pre-season games
with but one loss, piling up 205
points to 139 for opponents. Tues
day's Signal Oil tilt wound up their
campaign for tl^e rook series.
The Baby Beavers, reputedly the
best to represent Oregon State in
a decade, have jilayed three games
to date, winning all three. How
ard- Maple, new rook mentor, is
blessed with an outstanding bevy
of prep players, including four all
state men.
He ha3 a trio from last year's
Corvallis Spartans, who swept to
an easy state championship. Stew
Warren, center, and Merle Kruger,
and Roy Pflugrad, forwards, are
the lads. Tommy Hansen and Jake
Hergert, former Portland prep
aces, along with Frank Mandic,
.stand-out from Los Angeles, are
the leading Orange Babes who
have seen action at guard posts.
John Warren, pessimistic frosh
headman, is not without ball play
ers, either. Heading his list of all
staters is Ted Sarpola, neatest ball
handler on the squad, and three
times picked at forward on the all
state when playing for Astoria.
Sarpola has poked 09 points into
the hemp in five games this season.
Not far behind Sarpola is rangy
John Dick, ex-The Dalles hoop
man. Pivot-man Dick has dropped
in 55 tallies for an 11-point aver
age, not far behind the pace set
by Laddie Gale, last year’s whirl
wind center.
Matt Pavalunas, all-state for
ward from Raymond, Washington,
has been one of the team’s most
consistent scorers, and is a classy
ball handler besides. Pavalunas has
been one of the main cogs in War
ren’s Duckling quintet. He was out
of most of the Signal Oil game
Tuesday recuperating from last
week’s bruising encounters.
Stan Short, Roseberg’s contribu
tion at guard, is not a high scorer,
but packs a lot of drive, and is a
mainstay off the backboards for
the yearlings. Bob Blerikinsop,
Dennis Donovan, and Paul Jackson
are a trio of other freshmen who
have been seeing action in recent
games.

Idaho Pointing
Toward Duck
Hoop Series
Vamlals in Good Shape
After Montana Series;
TVogood Works Meii
On Floor Plays
UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, Mos
cow, Jan. 20.—(Special) — Back
from their loss and win at the Uni
versity of Montana over the week
end, the Idaho Vandals started
pointing their attack toward the
Oregon Ducks this weekend.
The Oregon men split their se
ries with Washington State college
two weeks ago when the Cougars
were making their Oregon inva
sion, and played at Pullman on
Tuesday and Wednesday. The
Washington State series for the
Ducks gave Coach Forrest Two
good and his men an opportunity
to see the Ducks in action.
No injuries Listed
All of the Idaho men came
through the Montana series in
good shape, with no injuries re
ported. Wild Bill Kramer. Idaho
guard, led the scoring for the Ida
ho team in both games, netting 12
points in the first and 10 in the
second contest.
With Oregon having the height
in the coming series, Twogood is
working his men this week in
speedy floor plays with the object
of keeping the ball in Idaho's pos
session all of the time- not part of
the time.
Point for Silver
Rangy David Silver, Oregon
forward, who has set a fast scor
ing pace in the conference thus far
in the season, will have big Don
Johnson to contend with during the
Idaho games. Johnson’s main as
signment will be to hold Silver
scoreless, if possible. In the Wash
ington series Lyle Smith, Vandal
forward, had the assignment of
keeping Chuck Wagner from the
basket, with Wagner scoring only
two points in the series.

Washington State’s Cougars
slipped into a lead midway through
the first half at Pullman last night
and held it throughout a hard
fought northern division basketball ‘
game to win from Oregon’s Web- 5
foots, 42 to 28. ^
Oregon won the previous night, '
40 to 36, and last night's Cougar
triumph gave the teams an even I
split in their four-game series for 1
the season. ‘
Long Ones Connect
Hobby Hobson, Oregon coach,
opened the game with the same
zone defense that was credited with (
success Tuesday. The Cougars, led
by Sophomore Cassius Dalquist,
opened up with long howitzers half- ,
way through the first period and
the Webfoots shitted to a man-for. '
man defense.
i
Washington State's inspired crew
penetrated that also and went on
to pile up a 17-to-8 lead by half
time.
The Cougars commanded the tip
off and’ monopolized the ball at
both backboards as the second half
started. Big Ivar Nelson began
connecting from under the basket,
and Jack Friel’s home team raced
I the count to 35 to 14.
Purdy Holes Three
Ken Purdy saved the Ducks from
who is rated as one of the best
pivot men in the league, will be
bothered during the Idaho series
by Roland Winter, the boy on the
Vandal squad with the big hands
Winter has shown his ability in
shadowing his men in both the
Montana and Washington games
and will have his big hands f'ull in
scampering about the court after
Wintermute.
Twogood will make no predic
tions as to the starters in the Fri
day and Saturday games, stating,
“It will depend on how the boys
| look in practice this week."
