Wefoots, Beavers (Continued from poor one) Indications are that lineups for both teams will be the same as opened the Washington games. Both outfits turned in satisfactory performances against the cham pion Huskies. Lineups Listed Oregon Mentor Hobson will probably start Dave Silver and John Lewis at forwards; Slim Win termute at center, and Bobby Anet and Wally Johansen at guards. Oregon State Tutor Gill is likely to send at the Webfoots a lineup including Art Merryman and Hub Tuttle at forwards; Earl Conkling at center, and Mai Harris and El mer Kolberg at guards. Ken Purdy, who won the first “civil war” game for Oregon, 35 to 34, witli a last minute Frank Merriwcll field goal, is certain to sec action tonight. His long shots are effective against a zone de fense such as that used by Oregon State. Other Webfoots likely to play tonight are Laddie Gale, Bill Courtney, and Ray Jewell. Lead ing Oregon State reserves are Ike Wintermute, Jay Hollingsworth, Bob Rissman, Chet Kebbe, and Sir Howard Watson Lyman. ■ ■{><>■ t Important Possession of the tip-off will be highly important tonight. Winter mute has a four-inch height ad vantage over Conkling, but the Beavers, according to reports from Corvallis, have been drilling all week on tip-offs and they may steal the ball. Tip-off work has also been a part of Oregon’s prac tice sessions during the week. Oregon State was impotent of fensively in early-season games, but the Beavers found their offen sive spark against Washington and are now rated a dangerous oppo nent. Defensively the Orangemen are the best in the conference. Teams May Use Zone Oregon out-drove Washington in the first of the series played here early this week, but the over-anx ious young Ducks were off form the second night and took a drub bing. Fans tonight may see zone de fense on both sides. The Beavers always use the zone style of play, What is the BLACK MENACE? : miiiiBiiitnii! Feb.

Bertram Jessup, English profes sor, tells of one student’s slight mistake in his midterm in sur vey of English literature. It seems that the question was asked, “what was the occasion for the writing of the poem ‘Ly | cidas,’ by John Milton?” The ‘ student responded by writing that King Edward and Milton Were great friends, and that they were both shepherds. One day a lamb wandered away from the flock they were tending, and the two young men chased it un til they were stopped by a high bluff. King Edward was unfor tunate enough to fall over the cliff and into the sea. Milton wrote this poem as a memory to his dear friend. For the benefit of those stu dents who have not read this poem, or for those who were also asleep when it was dis cussed in class, the drowned man’s name was Edward King. The occasion of the poem was the death of this fellow student of Milton’s at Cambridge, by drowning in the Irish Sea. Mil ton adopted the elegy as the ex pression of grief for a young and promising friend, who as a cler gymen might not unfittingly be described as a shepherd. and the Webfoots employed it against Washington. Probability is that Oregon will open with a man for-man defense. Man to watch in the Oregon Stale lineup is Art Merryman, a gentleman who directs the of fense and piles up the points. New scoring ace for the Beavers is transfer Mai Harris. Lewis Duck Ace New offensive ace for Oregon is Johnny Lewis, who paced Web loot scoring in the Washington series. Dave Silver and Slim Win termute are other Oregon scoring leaders. Heal leaders of the Ducks are Bob Anet and Wally Johansen, who spark the team’s floor play. General admission for students | not presenting ASUO cards is 55 ; cents. Reserved seats are 75 cents. What Is the BLACK MENACE?

Mr. Hopkins, who left Flugene January 9 for New Mexico where their first engagement was to be held, reported a rather bad start, as he was traveling to Portland in a bus which was involved in an accident. Luckily, he was uninjur ed and able to continue his trip. He arrived in Silver City, New Mexico a little later than was an ticipated, and Miss Ljunberg was also late. An hour after arriving in the city, they had to give their performance, so there was no time for rehearsal. "That first concert,” said Mr. Hopkins, "showed that she was an experienced singer.” In spite of the lack of a rehearsal, the concert went smoothly and Mr. Hopkins played two groups of piano solos. That concert was sponsored by the New Mexico Teacher’s college, and was one of a series of concerts they were pre senting. The next engagement was at the University of Arizona in Tucson. The sincere interest which the stu dents at the College of the Pacific in Stockton, California, took in the musical program was noted by Mr. Hopkins. "They were very atten tive,” he remarked, “and after the concert crowded on the stage to discuss with us questions about >" ^ i r musical matters.” In fact, Mr Hopkins reported that all the aud iences received them enthusiastic ally. The last concert was at the normal school in B e 11 i n g h a m, Washington. Due to weather con ditions, the rest of the program was cancelled. In speaking of the singer, Goeta Ljunberg, Mr. Hopkins said she came to America from Sweden about five years ago, and is a star of the Metropolitan Opera com pany. Every year, she goes back to Europe to give concerts. She has sung in Covent Garden in England, the Royal Opera in Sweden, and in the State Opera in Berlin. King Leopold of Belgium awarded her with the medal of arts and letters as she sang at his wedding, and she is the only woman to have been decorated with the Cross of the Legion of Honor in Sweden. She has now been selected to sing the lead, Isolde, in ‘‘Tristan and Isolde,” an opera by Wagner, un der Leopold Stokowski, one of the greatest living conductors. \ \ # » for the good things smoking can give you
