Recent action of the executive council in voting boxing and wrest ling a minor sport gave the Uni versity of Oregon Mitt and Mat dub the authority to represent the Institution and wear the traditional lemon and green. So now it’s offi cial iy the Beavers versus tl>e Ducks in the squared circle for the first time in years. The Mitt and Mat club sluggers ind grapplers have been working rard all season for the time when they might cross blows and torsos with the mighty Dixonmen from the neighboring college. And Fri day night they plan to prove to old Oregon and Kugene that they are worthy of wearing the little 'O” on the sides of their trunks. Leading the team of fisticuffers in their debut before local fans, will be the man of many accom plishments, Smokey Bob Whitfield, Oregon's own dusky dynamiter. Whitfield trades punches with Earl Williams of the Beavers. Whitfield's rugged teammate, “Glowering” Gale Ferris, will also fight in the middleweight division with Smoky. Ferris, a lad who carries nitro-plus in either hand, faces Homer Millard. Another boy favored to take his man is Merle Hanscom, the young sensation of the Duck training quarters. Hanscom tiasn’t wasted any time in climbing the local fis tic ladder since he turned out for the team. Although officials of the club "ain't sayin’," it is rumor- . ed that Hanscom rocked to sleep two sparring partners in recent workouts. Inskeep Heavyweight Heavyweight Russ Inskeep, a former teammate of Jim Dimit and Big Nine champ, has been working overtime in his conditioning rou tine. He touches gloves with Ben Ell, reserve Beaver footballist. In the lightweight division, Frank “Tiger” Nickerson, demon little "swarm-over-’em” artist, will car ry the Wcbfoot load against Phil Lane of the Orangemen. Both Don Towers and Bob Kroessin will fight in the junior welterweight division, 145 pounds or better. Jinx Dimit and A1 Bogue, club officials, will handle the card.

They tripped Al pha hall down the ladder for a loss to the tune of 29 to 9. The game started as if it might be somewhat close, but the Kappa Sigs started hitting the hoop in the third period to run Arpha hall all over the court pasting shots in the hoop from all angles. Most of the scoring was taken care of by Thurston and Moore who scored 8 points each and "Tillamook” Caufield, who potted in 6 markers. A1 Carter contributed his share, dunking in three field goals and a free throw for seven points. An derson tallied five points for Al pha closely followed by Barret with three.

The Yeomen can sing praises for their hard earned victor to Rudy King and A1 Fox who did much to aid the cause of the Yeomen, for they were hot on the old basket, holing out 12 and 8 points respec tively. The game was very close in the first half with the score 8 to 7 for the Sammies. At the end of the third quarter the Yeomen had put the score to 14 to 13 in their favor.

Helen Wills Moody, former international tennis star, says that she is taking up golf for relaxation, but observers wonder if maybe she will be playing tournament golf before long. Joe Mariana Named One of Best Hurlers From the demands the alumni arc making it occurs that the best coach we can get for them is Charlie McCarthy. The difference between him and a lot of people is that Char lie admits being a blockhead. Sports writers have something in common with Dizzy Dean Except that Diz is now selling gas instead of issuing it gratis. One holding company that Un cle Sam will do nothing about is the infirmary, a subsidiary of the Oregon basketball team. We nominate Montana's “Lit tle Joe” Mariana as one cf the Ten Best Pitchers of the Year. their last game for they started early and they were never headed. Teaming together were Don Mabee, ex-McMinnville all-state and Frank Emmons, Beaverton’s contribution to the athletic world. They pilot ed their team to lead 5 points at the rest period, 14 to 0. The Dudley Stars continued to pepper the basket in the last frame with scrappy Denny Donovan tak ing his turn at garnering points, posting six points. Don Mabee bucketed three field goals and four free tosses for high honors. Frank Emmons was also right in there with nine points. Baxter was high for the Deltas with 11.

Orange Freshmen Make First Start After Short Rest Oregon State College, Corvallis, Jan. 26. —- Idle for nearly two weeks, Oregon State's freshman basketball players swing back into action this week when they meet the General Finance of Salem team here Saturday night at 7:30 o' clock. Oregon State's likely starting lineup will be composed of Clay ton Shaw of Walla Walla and Bill Ring of Marshfield, forwards; Bob Penney of Butte, center; Carl Gregg and Mai Blackburn, both of Portland, guards. All-Star Forward Works With Squad Though Weak; Leave Today for Seattle Pavalunas Also Returns After Two Days in Infirmary With Cold; Varsity Now at Full Strength for Tough Road Trip Big Dave Silver walked out on the Igloo maples yesterday afternoon and Webfoot hearts were happy once again. His return, coming on the eve of the Ducks' departure for Seattle and their crucial series with the Washington Huskies, injected new spirit into Coach Howard Hobson's rangy snipers, and they raced through their last intensive drill in preparation for the men of Ed munson. The six-foot-four-inch forward has been in the infirmary for the past ten days recovering from a chickenpox attack which forced him out of both the Oregon State i and Montana series. Leave This Morning The Webfoots entrain for the northland at 9:15 o’clock this morning. Friday and Saturday nights they tee off against the Huskies in what may turn out to be one of the key series of the sea son. Tonight Hobby will send his charges through a workout in the famed Washington pavilion. Following the series in Seattle, Hobson will bundle up his tower ing crew and head eastward across the Rocky mountains to Missoula, Montana, the lair of the Grizzlies, for a return joust with Jiggs Dahl berg's boys. Silver Cavorts In the drill in McArthur court yesterday afternoon, Silver took his regular place with the first string, cavorting from a forward berth for most of the session. Af ter working up a good sweat witn his mates, he was sent to the showers. The rugged senior is still weak from his illness and while tapering back to top-notch condi tion will not put in full-time duty for a while. The team that will open for the Webfoots on the huge pavilion ply wood will be the same as that which opened the last two games against Montana, the young Ore gon mentor indicated. Silver will see considerable action, however. Ted Sarpola and Laddie Gale will be at forwards, Urgel “Slim” Win termute at center, and the Astoria “twins,” Bobby Anet and Waily Johansen at guards. Pavvy Returns Another cold victim, chunky Matt Pavalunas, who sojourned at “ME. AND AIRS. NEWT” THE SIGMA NUS are laying 63 to 17 odds that ‘STRETCH’ will be the whisker winner by a hair! The Dolt's Charles Schannep re fuses to ‘‘chuck” the race, while Donald Palmblad, the singing Swede of Sigma Chi, assuredly awaits Friday night to "don" the booby prize. “LATHER GO” at the Whiskerino GERLINGER HALL Llav St per Couple Alpha Chi Omegas Defeat Tri-Delts Alpha Chi Omega defeated Delta Delta Delta 15-9 in the first game in women's intramural basketball Wednesday afternoon. As a whole it was a clean game, but ragged due to the inexperience of the play ers. The Tri-Delts fought a hard game, but could not break through the Alpha Chi Omega guards. Lineup for Alpha Chi Omega was: Norcross, Driskeff, Mayo, forwards: Landreth, Blaine, Os wald, guards; Brookings, Bayles, Van Matre, substitutes. Lineup for Delta Delta Delta: ! Norwood, Smith, Vadnais, for wards; Berry, Kramer, Thoumund, guards; Merrill, Maag, Crain, sub stitutes. This afternon Alpha Delta Pi will play Pi Phi and Alpha Phi will play Kappa Kappa Gamma in Ger linger gym at 5 o’clock. the infirmary the past two days also was back in a suit tonight. His return, along with Silver's, caused Howard Hobson to rate the Ducks in the best shape they have been since their cold epidemic of last week. Their minor colds are all cleared up, Hobson said. Players who will make the trip follow: Sarpola, Hay Jewell, Anet, Johansen, Silver, Wintermute, Dick, Pavalunas, Gale, and Mullen.
