These Ex-Fishermen Now Cougar Hunters
Ace members of this year’s Oregon hoop team are these three former members of Astoria’s Fighting
Fishermen high school team. Wally Johansen, left, will start at one guard position tonight against the
league-leading Cougars on the Igloo floor, with stocky Boh Anet, center, as his running mate. Expected
to break into the lineup is Ted Harpnla, left, lanky springy-legged sophomore, who has shown much
promise in pre-season games. Johansen and Anet were both regulars on last year’s team that lost to
Ihe Cougars in the northern division title playoff. They arc juniors.

Jim Hurd and Bob Chilton, twi
stalwarts of the University of Ore
gon swim squad of last year, whicl
splashed to the Northwest Cham
pionships and court honors, weri
accorded places on the 1937 all
American intercollegiate swimminj
team, Coach Mike Hoyman an
nouhbQd yesterday.
Awarding- of national honors t<
the Webfoot duo marked the see
'end straight year that two Ore
gon mermen have gained places oi
the mythical squad. Hurd, win
paddled through two years of Pa
eifie coast competition without de
feat and Jim Reed, baekstroki
crown bearer, were placed on tin
| 1936 team.
Hurd, brilliant sprinter, holds al
the northwest free style records ii
races from 50 yards up to 100. Ii
1936 the Oregon star set the exist
; ing Pacific coast collegiate TOO
yard free style record, when lit
churned the century distance ii
53.3 seconds. He also swam an
chor on the medley relay tean
which established the Pacific coasl
record at 3:13.3. The Reed broth
ers, Chuck swimming the breasl
stroke, and Jim the backstroke
rounded out the medley trio.
The other Webfoot to gain the
! "all-star emblem,” Bob Chilton
was northern division diving cham
pion in 1935 and 1937 and lost
only once in his three years ol
varsity competition. The lone de
feat on his record was written
there in the 1936 northern division
championship meet by Bert Myers
j Chilton's teammate.
Two other all-Americans grace
Hoyman's frosh squad now work
ing out, but all-Americans of a
different ranking. Jack Dallas,
breast-stroke, and Sherman Whet
more, backstroke, both from Los
Angeles Polytechnic high school,
were placed cm the 1937 interscho
lastic mythical team. Dallas was
ranked as the country’s top prep
performer in his event, and both
men are regarded as definite 1940
Olympic prospects.

Ducklings to
, Play Portland
, QuintetToday
' Frosh Open Season
Against Franklin;
Rose City Champs
Seek Revenge
i With but three workouts com
pleted since their vacation lay-off,
Coach “Honest” John Warren’s i
, Duckling hoopmen will make their
, initial appearance this afternoon
when they clash with Chappie
King’s champion Quakers from
Franklin high, Portland, on the
: Igloo boards at 5 o’clock.
Slated to be as good or better
than last year’s aggregation, the
Portland quint is primed to avenge
the two defeats handed them last
year by Warren's club. Leading
the Quaker team will be Wally
Kremer's Bob Oliver and Mickey
Miles, all-state second team guard
last year, both outstanding vet
erans.
In the final practice last night
Honest John pitted his squad
against a "super-varsity” team in
an attempt to iron out the ragged
play and to check errors in back
board play and passing.
Although they matched basket
for basket with the super-varsity,
it was evident that Hie frosh will
need to eliminate much of their
ragged play before they can hope'
to become a smooth working team.
Gale May Take
Wind Out of the
Cougars 'Sails
The basketballing’ Cougars
are sailing along the champion
ship waters they monopolized
last year. With baskets fore and
aft.
Mr. Hobson's boys may take
the wind out of their sails.
At the rate he's going Gale
should win in a breeze.
The drop in the price of Sil
ver has even affected the Web
feet. Dave has slumped.
But there’s a Hardy forward
fill'ng in for him.
And Slim Wintermute is still
the high man -6 feet 8 inches.
The sharpshooting Finns from
the lower Columbia river—Jo
hannsen, Anet and Sarpola—
have taken on the role of "Asto
ria Assassins.”
Oregon has piled up 11 straight
wins.
It seems to be a Hobby with
them.
If the Oregon quintet is as
good in tonight’s game as in
early season games, they may
put on the Hobson Hobble.
If not, it may be the Webfoot
Wobble.
Nearly the entire squad played in
the contest.
Lineup Tentative
Tentatively listed as starters for
this afternoon’s contest are Archie
Marshik, six foot six center from
St. Mary’s, Eugene, at the pivot po
sition; Chet Allen, Eureka, Cali
fornia, star, and Earl Sandness,
ex-Astoria flash at forwards; and
George “Porky” Andrews of Vic
toria, B. C., and Toivo Piippo, an
other of Warren’s proteges from
Astoria, at the guard positions.
Other yearlings likely to figure
in the contest are Tiny Smith and
Danny Read, ex-University high
stars, Pete Igoe, former Eugene
high standout, Harold Hoffman,;
Long Beach, California, star, and
Jimmie Rathbun, high scorer in
the Portland interscholastic league
last year from Washington high.
Both teams are scheduled to
meet again in the second game of
the series at 4 o’clock Saturday in
the Igloo. No admission will be
charged for either contest.

Large Program For
Term Is Announced
Bg Intramural Head
After a lap.se of a few weeks
over examinations and the holi
days, donut sports will again swing
into action Monday with the first
of the intramural basketball games
scheduled.
Deemed by Paul R. Washke, di
rector, as one of the most exten
sive programs ever offered, the
schedule will include championship
events in A and B league basket
ball, wrestling and handball.
All intramural managers should
sign their teams in any or all of
these events by Friday noon, Mr.
Washke announced. A schedule
will be drawn up and regular
games in both A and B league
basketball will start Monday. Be
tween 50 and 60 teams are expect
ed to be signed for the two
leagues.
Wrestling in February
Handball will start a week later
and wrestling sometime in Feb
ruary according to tentative plans.
All players must be in complete
gym suit clothing. The referee,
balls, whistle, etc. will be furnished
by the school, however each team
is required to furnish their own
score and time keepers, Mr.
Washke said.
ATO Defenders
Alpha Tau Omega, defending
champions in both the A and B
leagues promise a good team again
this year, but will undoubtedly
uncover stiff competition from
some of the up and coming teams
of other houses.
Mitt, Mat Boys Show
At Half-Time Tonight
A wrestling and boxing exhibi
tion by members of the newly
formed Oregon Mitt and Mat club
featuring slugger Gale Ferris and
Smokey Whitfield will be offered
spectators at the basketball game
tonight during half time.
Ferris and “Bomber” Whitfield,
colorful negro glove tosser, are
rated by Jim Dimit, Mitt and Mat
club prexy, a3 the class of the Uni
versity boxers. In two previous
inter-squad leather-pushing jousts
this season, the two middleweights
battled to bruising draws.
Fans who have seen them in
action rate them virtually on a
par although the dusky clouter has
had more experience, punching his
way to a semi-finals berth in a
Golden Gloves tournament in Chi
cago two years ago. Ferris how
ever has been coming along fast
and is the boy that fans are back
ing to climb the fistic ladder. He
carries a terrific wallop in either

AS far as I can see, and 1 am sitting atop a high fence as I
write this, there is no sense in wandering out of our own
backyard to find a coach for next year s Oregon football team.
Gradually gaining stature as a result of his flue forward \\alls,
his reputation advancing in ever-widening circles as his linemen
gain honors in professional fields, Gene Shields has been slowly
but very surely advancing in this coaching business under our
very eyes, until now he is fully ripe to move into the golden
chair.
So I say, and it is being said at more length and with
greater detail in other columns of this paper, that we
should get on the'boat and start supporting genial Gene
for the job. He knows the ropes, is acquainted with all the
angles peculiar to this institution, and is willing to take on
the responsibility of turning out winning teams for the
University.
And by far the most able criterion (o judge Gene s worth
is what the team, the fellows who have seen the most of him,
who know him, have to say. They are unanimous in their sup
port. And with a team that is 99.44 per cent behind the coach,
next year shouldn't find any repetition of the dissension that
came to the fore this campaign.
So other than to just declare my hand, and etH-se-ihe- pot in
favor of Gene, I won’t say anymore this time.

J^Y the time you have read this far, ye faithful who are Ion"
of wind and short of brain, you should know that this is
me again. It seems that Hawkins is going to school this term
and sleeping on the side (personally I like to sleep on my back
as I can out-snore the fellow in the next room in that position).
It’s almost impossible to edit this page, go to school,
and sleep in the same 24-hour period, and do a creditable
job of any. That “Hatch” did a very splendid job of edit
ing this page is a known fact, but I know that he was
always heavy-lidded and his GPA looked like the XYZ
affair that you read about in your American history books.
We are going to try and have everyone’s name in tlie paper
this term and when an all-star intramural team is picked no
one will be slighted for it will contain 43 first teams, 27 second
teams, and all the rest of the guys that even pulled on a sock
in intramural competition will receive honorable mention.
Ho I think I will go home now and gaze fondly at that little
bunk which will soon cradle me no longer. It seems a shame
to exile myself from so faithful a companion. 1 know every
bump and lumpy spot in it. lint I will get my sleep. There arc
always classrooms, and the library.
