DUCK TRACKS By ELBEBT HAWKINS This is Friday, it’s the third day of December, and fall term finals are drawing precariously near. But there is something else of prime importance to us now. Tonight at the Igloo, King Bas ketball will begin his long reign. Howard Hobson’s .Lemon-Yellow basket chunkers face Portland uni versity in one of the top features of a big Dad’s day weekend. And tomorrow night on the same new ly sanded and varnished maple hoards of McArthur court, Hobby’s Webfoot quintet is slated to play Multnomah club. All in all (count ing this weekend) Oregon will play play II pre-game tilts before merging into the six-team North ern division race in .January. From Coach Ed Fitzpatrick’s Portland boys you can expect a fast brand of basketball. They’ll be led by Bill O’Donnell, six-foot center, who averaged 12 points per game last season as a sophomore. The Pilots move down to Corvallis tomorrow' night to engage in com bat with Slats Gill’s Oregon State Beaver team, so by Sunday we should have some comparison of Oregon and Oregon State. On the Multnomah club five, which we’ll see tomorrow night, a host of cx-collcge stars will ap pear. The club boys who rate with Northern division teams every year, boast such classy performers as Johnny Fuller, ex-Washington star, Oregon Stater's Art Merry man, Carl Lenchitsky, Cliff Folen, and others. Also on the Multno mah squac} are Bill Courtney, mid get guard of last season’s Oregon varsity, and Bob Braddock, the boy who so ably starred on the 1937 Duck football eleven. Don’t forget the football season either, it isn’t over. While Oregon faces Multnomah club in basket ball here Saturday, down in Tuc son, Arizona, Prink Callison’s elev en plays the University of Arizona Wildcats. Hinging upon the final outcome I will be Oregon’s chances of break ing even for the season. Arizona is definitely favored on the basis of more consistent play, but an Ore- j gon victory would climax a 50-50 season five wins and five losses. Whether the Ducks are at full strength is not certain. Denny Breaid and Jimmy Nicholson were released from the Marine hospital .'arly this week, but their condi tion is questionable. Publicity from the Arizona whool leaves little doubt as to the limn Oregon’s gridmen will have to stop to win Saturday’s final game, lie’s Itrouko Siuilanicli, 170 pound triple threat, from Chisholm, “MIC.

Also sched uled as an attraction of the Dad’s day weekend is a game in the Igloo Saturday night with Multnomah club of Portland. The probable starting lineup for the varsity as announced yester day by Coach Howard Hobson will include mostly regulars from last year’s team. Laddie Gale, Bobby Anet, Wally Johansen, Slim Win tcrmute, and Dave Silver will like ly compose the quintet. Ready to Go Laddie Gale, the only member not on the starting teams last year, will fill the place vacated by the graduation of Johnny Lewis. Gale was forced to remain on the side lines most of last season because of a broken finger. The finger has mended quite well, however, and judging by pre-game practice ses sions, should not greatly handicap him in scoring this year. Wally Johansen and Bobby Anet, the Astoria flashes, who were the main stays in the defense of last year's team will undoubtedly do much of the ball handling in the game. Johansen has shown ability to pot the long shots in scrimmage and is expected to be a serious threat to the Portland five. Slim at Center Slim Wintermute, whose remark able ability under the basket was amply demonstrated last season, will start at the center position for the varsity. All-Northwest conference last year, Dave Silver, is slated to fill the role at the other Minnesota. Bronko, at left half, piled up an enviable record in both passing and ball toting for the first half of the season. Fleet Bronko negotiated 288 yards for an average of 5.8 yards per attempt. He is a little below Jay Graybeal’s average which comes nearer per try, but still rates above most of ’em. As a passer he completed 18 out of 88 for 290 yards, which totals almost a completion for every miss. Only Joe Gray in these parts could com pare. Oregon’s pass defense may have a rocky time qgainst Arizona, fori the Wildcats by mid-season had completed the ama/.iug total of 20 heaves out of 54 aerial attempts. Sidney Woods and Fariss Hardin, understudies to Left Half Smllan ieh at left half completed 5 out of 10 and 2 out out of 4, respectively. I As a ball carrier Woods tops the Arizona backs with a seven point average, although he has packed the mail less than half as many! times as Bronko. Announcement Robert H.

Silver also ranked very high in scoring in the confer ence last season. The squad is bolstered by many hard-working reserves and' substi tutions can be made without ef fectively weakening the strength of the team. Among those likely to see action are: Bob Hardy, transfer and high-scoring forward from Southern Oregon normal; Kay Jewell and Ford Mullen, reserves of last year; Matt Pavalunas, Ted Sarpola, and John Dick of War ren’s 1937 from team. However,’ Coach Hobson said that each mem ber of the squad will probably be given a chance in the game, to see j how they stack up against real competition. First Meeting Friday night will mark the first time Oregon has played Portland university, and both teams will be out fighting for a win in the first J game. Portland university boasts of a fast team this year and will undoubtedly give the varsity a good game. The Pilots will be paced by Bob O’Donnell, high scor ing center who netted an average of more than 12 points a game for them last year. O'Donnell is a jun ior this year. O’Donnell is an ex pert shot and is expected to do most of the Pilots' scoring, how ever, other members of the squad, j Ray Ruminski, Eddie Curran, j Chuck Clayton, and Captain Brick 1 McGinnis are also good at sending the ball through the hoop. All students with ASUO cards will be admitted to the game. Gen-! era] admission for others will be 40 cents for adults and 10 cents for high school students.

In fact almost one tenth of the traveling squad of the1 Duck brigade is composed of ex Klamath Falls boys now roaming. Ihe gridiron for the Lemon and I Green. inree ooys irom the city in the southern part of the state are on the Oregon roster, and all three have seen their share of action un der fire this year. First of the three to come to Oregon was Bill Estes, regular right tackle, and last of the var sity men to check in is V'ie Regin ald. reserve end, playing his first year of varsity ball. Estes is a senior and three-year letterman. But this column is not concerned with either Estes or Keginato. It will deal with the “middleman" of the Klamath Falls trio, Nello Gio vnnini, the boy with the “Irish" monicker. Giovanini, a junior playing his second year with the Oregon var sity, stands six-feet and registers a good 20(1 pounds. The saga of Giovanini dates trom the Southern California game of two years ago. Shoved into a guard gap in the midst of a severe Oregon drubbing, the green sopho more promptly went to town. He was all over the field that day, making impossible tackles and blocking viciously. G i o v a n i n i earned his spurs and a letter that day. and this year he has played considerable ball. Three of his 20 years of age were spent handling a tackle berth for the Klamath Falls Pelicans, where one year he was a teammate of Keginato.

The favored Phi Deit aggregation topped the Phi Psis, 15-4, 15-6, and the Sig Eps won over the Sigma Chis, 15-6, 15-13. Paced by their three kill-shot artists, Ed Strohecker, Ken Ship ley and Sid Milligan, the Phi Delt sextet coasted to a comparatively easy victory over the Phi Psis. Steady playing, good defnse and far superior spiking summed up the barnboys’ victory. Carlson and Souss starred for the Phi Psi team. Sigma Chis Upset The Sig Ep victory over the Sigma Chis was generally regard ed as an upset, according to volley ball followers, but the sterling play of George Jackson who kept the Sweethearts in plenty of trouble with his kill shots and defensive play might be said to be the out standing factor in the Sig Ep win. Lack of organization on the Sig ma Chi team accounted for the one-sided 15-6 score in the first game, and although they rallied strongly in the second canto, the (Please turn to page three) boned, he was a stalwart in the ini was a senior and Smith was a junior, and all of Giovanini’s best efforts went for naught as Smith and his ltiates won by something like 18-0. And to Giovanini's chagrin, Smith still likes to remind him of it once in a while.

This is the game which is expected to draw some 00,000 fans to the Memorial coli seum Saturday. The principals in the struggle are thrice beaten, twice tied USC, and four times beaten and once tied UCLA. The loser will hold the cellar spot for the year, while the Winner will pass Oregon's Web foots in the standings to grab off the number six spot. Will Shoot Works Both teams are expected to shoot the works in an effort to grab off this, their last game of the season. Both teams showed to good advantage against intersec tional opponents last Saturday. USC lost a tough battle to a fine Notre Dame team while UCLA looked strong in defeating Mis souri. California will spend the remain ing time between now and New Years, studying and drilling against Alabama plays now that their game with Georgia Tech is off the schedule. Players Pleased Most of the California players were pleased with the selection of Alabama as their Hose Bowl op ponent as Alabama's record in the Rose Bowl speaks for itself. In four trips to Pasadena the Crimson Tide has yet to suffer a loss, with three wins and one tie on the rec ords. Santa Clara, the Coast’s leading independent and only undefeated and untied team, has accepted a bid to play in the Sugar Bowl against Louisiana State. The same two teams played in the Sugar Bowl last year with Santa Clara winning by a score of 21 to 14. Louisiana State lost one game, los ing to Vanderbilt, 7 to 6 on the now famous “mystery play.’’ JHQMMA'.'.v .. Tennis and Divot Titles Settled in i All-Campus Play McBridge Edges Out Net Triumph Over Bill Walker With two all-campus champion ships decided yesterday and the remainder of the annual tourna ments in their final stages, the all campus intramural season is fast drawing to its conclusion. Paul McBride, ace tennis trans fer from Portland university, de feated his former teammate, Bill Walker, in three hotly contested sets on the University courts yes terday afternoon, 6-1, 2-6, and 7-5. McBride Stars McBride starred for the Portland institution last year, while Walker distinguished himself in campus tennis by defeating Vic Ramis, ex Alabama star, when the varsity played the Leader tennis shop of Portland last spring. Frederick K. Davis arose from the ranks of the freshmen to annex the all-campus golf crown by de feating Ken Shipley 3 and 2 yes terday at Laurelwood. Shipley Drops It Davis scored a 36 to Shipley’s 39 on the opening nine, and ended the match on the sixteenth where Shipley went two over par, with three down and two holes to be played.

Close Play Featured In Coed Volleyball In the fastest and most intensely competitive game of the year, the all-stars captained by Dorothy Bates defeated the all-stars cap tained by Betty Lou Roberts by a score of 28-22 in women's volley ball Thursday evening. Every player was an individual star, and although the teams had not had an opportunity to play to gether before, the teamwork was wonderful. The score at half was 16-10 in favor of the Roberts team, and this lead was maintained until the last five minutes of the game. Believe it or not, the final outcome is credited to a lucky sock worn by Martha Epsy on the Bates team. Players on the Bates team were: Eva Gadwa, Alpha Gamma Delta; Lorraine Hunt, Sigma Kappa; Bar bara Espy, Kappa Alpha Theta; Frances Tomlinson, Hendricks hall; Martha Russell, Orides, Helen Strong, Chi Omega, and Dorothy Bates, Kappa Kappa Gamma. Players on the Roberts team were: Marian Brookings, Alpha Chi Omega; Mary Thatcher, Kappa Kappa Gamma; Mildred Snyder, University Co-op; Jane Montgom ery, Hendricks hall; Betty Reisch, Pi Beta Phi; Olga Jacobs, Alpha Delta Pi; Janet Goresky, Alpha Phi. and Betty Lou Roberts, Kappa Kappa Gamma, captain.

And, from ■what I see, most fliers share my regard for Camels. They need healthy nerves. That’s one big reason why so many of us stick to Camels.” And many millions of Americans—more people than smoke any other cigarette in the world —give a hearty o-kay to Camels!
