It's Oregon versus Oregon State
n the ring Friday night!
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.

In Feature Game
By WES JOHNSON
Every man scores, cried the
Kappa Sigs and it was just about
that for scoring honors were divid
ed equally well among the flying
Kappa Sig squad. 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.

Sammies 19, Yeomen 28
In a see-saw game in which one
team was ahead one minute and
then behind the next, the Yeomen
were able to crack the ice in the
third quarter to break a 13 to 13
tie, step up the tempo a bit, and
bowl over the powerful Sammy
quintet 28 to 19.
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.
King and Fox were outstanding
for the Yeomen with Frager in the
limelight in the Sammy attack.

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.

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,

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.
Ivan Moore, team manager, will
accompany the team.
