M iuutilN i Lix jn ms column in tne uregoman, l.. in. Gregory iocusec
attention on the ever-growing popularity of basketball as the
great American indoor sport. He said that basketball was becoming
big-time all over the country.
Going on he pointed out that if Oregon really got going this
year the Igloo, with its 8000 seating capacity, would hardly be
large enough to accommodate the crowds that would be drawn.
The import of all his remarks was that some of Oregon’s games
should be moved to Portland, where on a floor set up in the big
livestock arena in North Portland, there would be no difficulty
at all in drawing up to 12,000.
And a paragraph from the same column, quote, “The northerr
division very much wants to break into Portland. Oregon and Oregor
State have had Portland in mind for a long time, but the college thai
is really talking it up just now is Washington. The Huskies have lei
it be known that they’ll not only guarantee Portland at least twi
championship games a season, but will split the gate receipts liberally
to help pay for putting up a court in the livestock arena in Nortl
Portland.”
But before the germ that Gregory has sown gets past the
test tube stage, I for one, want to say that I am heartily against
any such move. It is not enough that the best of our football
games is yearly transported to the big city to be played before
a crowd that is made up of about five per cent college students,
but now they want to invade the field of basketball.
TT* OOTBALL can be defended on the grounds that our stadium if
not large enough down here and we can make more money bj
staging the exhibition in Portland but the two Portland games this
year didn’t draw too well at that. Such a circumstance does nol
prevail in basketball, however. We have the Jgloo which is large
enough to accommodate a very lucrative crowd.
I think any idea of moving northern division basketball garnet
smacks too much of commercialism. After all we come down here
to go to school and that basketball team is a part of our school
activities. Why should the pleasure of watching our team perform
be taken from us. Certainly, they would probably draw a biggei
crowd in Portland, and make more money for the institution, but
I am just old-fashioned enough to believe that when a sport can pay
for itself, and make a neat profit besides that, it is fulfilling its
objective to a maximum. And that is just what basketball, played
in the Igloo, has been doing.
There seems to be a growing tendency around here to move the
best of everything Oregon does to Portland. The Big City seems to have
an avid interest in our doings. If any of the basketball games are
ever moved to Portland I will be in favor of’moving the whole institu
tion there too. Then the powers that govern us can build a glass
walled University and the whole town of Portland can come down
every day and not only watch our athletic teams in action but can
catch us as we go through the process of becoming educated.
Think of it. Every day the Oregon-starved Portlanders could
traipse down to our huge glass palace and sit in the bleachers which
will surround every classroom and get their fill. And sports writers
would probably start turning our items like this:

With a dual meet with Wash

Nightly workouts are in order

In order to insert a touch o:
fun to the workouts, Hoyman ha,
built up a spirit of friendly rivalry
between squad members. For in
stance this week the slogan for
distance men is “Beat Levy,” JacI

Duck Shooting

Closed Season
The way the Oregon basket
ball team is shooting, Oregon
State is thinking of legislation
for a closed season.
We understand (lie Sigma
Nus will picket the Igloo next
Friday if Ralph Coleman ref
erees because he called four
fouls on Wally Johansen in the
last game.
It's nothing Nu.
If Hobson's boys go any fast
er, we'll have to bank the floor.
There’s talk about penaii/.ing
Anse Cornell on this coaching
situation for taking too much
time in the muddle.
Because the center-jump in
basketball was eliminated in an
effort to speed up the game,
some fatjs say the kick-off in
football should be taken out.
With the movies making pic
tures of the San Francisco
earthquake, the Chicago fire and
other major disasters, we expect
the next one to feature the
Washington State hoop team.
ldoyd’s >>f l.ondon will insure
against any thing—except Fuddle

There’s nothing to the rumor
that Walt Disney gave Donald
Duck to the Oregon team for
a mascot.
This windy talk about Gale
being a breeze has been altered
to include hurricane.
he rated honorable mention in the
state basketball tournament, but
then these facts have very little
prestige with John Warren, so let s
just say Pete is Coach Warren's
number one reserve, and let it go
at that.

Tactics for Series
With Orangemen
By BILL NORENE
Despite the fact that Oregon
State’s Coach Slats Gill is expect
, ed to introduce tactics designed to
slow down Oregon’s driving of
fense, the Ducks will stick to their
fire-department offensive for the
coming Beaver series according to
announcement by Coach Hobson
yesterday.
It was these same maneuvers
that carried the perambulating
Ducks to victory in all 11 of their
pre-season games and in their two
conference games.
Drive Important
Drive h,as been emphasized in all
practice sessions so far this week,
with the squad opposing the var
sity using both zone and man-for
man defense so that the Ducks
, will be prepared for systems.
Yesterday afternoon Coach Hob
son scrimmaged his top ten men,
with Dave Silver and Laddie Gale,
forwards; Slim Wintermute, cen
ter, and Bobby A net and Wally
Johansen, guards, representing the
varsity.
Reserves Opposition
Opposing this combination were
Ted Sarpola and Bob Hardy, for
wards; John Dick, centers; and
Matt Pavalunas and Ford Mullen,
guards.
While the first quintet is expect
ed to be the starting club it was
Hardy, Dick, and Pavalunas who
stole the show at last night’s
workout.
According to Coach Hobson
there is not much difference be
tween these three, plus Mullen and
Sarpola, and the men holding down
first string jobs and any one of
the five may break into the start
ing lineup at any time. ‘

Sweethearts Victors
Over Sherri) Ross;
Sammies Also Win
By LYLE NELSON
Displaying a flashing attack in
the last two minutes of play, the
Dudley Stars won a fast game
from the Kappa Sigma five by
the score of 26 to 22.
With about three minutes to play
the score showed 17 for Kappa
Sigma and 16 for the Dudley crew.
At this point Don "all state ’’ Mabee
slipped under the basket and
flipped a cripple to bring the Dud
ley stars ahead.
Mabee Stars
Quick shots in succession by Em
mons and Mabee netted four more
points and from this point on the
Duds were never headed. The
Kappa Sigs threatened again near
the end of the game, but were un
able to overcome the large lead
against them.
Mabee with 10 points and Frank
Emmons with 6 were the high
scores of the Dudley Crew. The
best performance of the day was
given by Moore of the Kappas who
in addition to scoring 12 points
was in on nearly every play.

As a Tobacco Auctioneer
V* * —
Veteran Jim Edwards
tells why tobacco experts
prefer Luckies 2 to 1...
"I recently sold 489,000 pounds
of tobacco in one 6Vi hour day,”
says Mr. J. N. Edwards of Farm
ville, North Carolina.
"There was a buyer, naturally,
for every one of those 489,000
pounds...But there was as much
difference between the best grades
and the inferior, as between a
pretty girl and a homely one.
"At auction after auction, I’ve
seen Lucky Strike go after the
prettiest lots of tobacco. It’s no
wonder Luckies taste so good.
I've smoked them since 1917.
"And another thing . . . evea
after yelling out tobacco bids
s .jo*
all during a seven hour day,
Luckies are still just as easy as
ever on my throat.”
Only Lucky Strike offers you
the finest tobacco plus the throat
protection of the exclusive proc
ess "It’s Toasted”. This process
takes out certain irritants found
in all tobacco—even the finest.
Men who know tobacco from
A to Z—experts like Mr. Edwards
—are surely good judges of ciga
rettes ... Sworn records show that,
among independent tobacco ex
perts, Luckies have twice as many
exclusive smokers as have all the
other cigarettes combined.
