THE
HOT
CORNER
By BILL N'OKENE
Handicapped slightly by condi
tion, two of the University’s new
est athletic representatives, the
boxing and wrestling teams, will
make their debut this evening at
McArhur court. Little more than
a week old, the two organizations
will match left hooks and toe-holds
with the Beavers, who are favor
ites to walk off with the meet.
Both experience and numbers
are on the Beaver side of the led
ger. To begin with the manly art
of self-defense and its companion
have been established at the Cor
vallis institution for some time.
We do not have the exact' fig
ures, but Jim Dixon and Doc All
man, the wrestling coach, have
turned out many Beavers boxers
and wrestlers in past years. As a
result the Orangemen not only
have the material started coming,
but their teams have a definite
standing in the northwest. Last
year they entered a team in the
Pacific Northwest Amateur tour
ney in Portland.
* * *
Never fear, however, for Coaches
Dimit and Bogue have a few boys
who know how to handle them
selves inside the squared circle, al
though as stated before, condition
will hinder a few of the Ducks.
It seems as though some of the
boys didn't like the idea of giving
all every night just for the fun
of it, they would just as leave have
a letter as a reward.
Mercenary to be sure, but then
they evidently have no conscience.
They didn’t come out, preferring
to study or work for monetary con
sideration.
As a result many of the lads
didn’t begin actual training until
last week when the activities board
put their official stamp on the
Mitt-Mat club proceedings.
Then too injuries reaped a ter
rific harvest, especially among the
wrestlers. John, "The Champ,”
Valleau bent a bone in his should
er, (that’s his story) and will be
out for another couple of weeks,
if he gets to wrestle at all this
season.
Bill Kopczak, former 105-pound
PNA champ, pulled a fast one, or
maybe it wasn’t fast enough. Re
gardless of what the score was,
he came out on the short end of it
with a broken ankle.
* * *
Walter Lee Wood, one of the
beet 155-pound prospects tore
something like half the muscles in
his leg loose in a moment of
frenzy. Not only does Walter have
to neglect his wrestling, but he has
to quit skiing. Now when some
body quits skiing, you know that it
is probably for a serious cause.
Anyway we would think so be
cause some of the advertisements
of dolls wearing ski clothes looked
very good.
But to get back to the coming
show tonight, the Oregon team
still has a few boys who can throw
plenty of leather. Smoky Whitfield
went to the finals in the Chicago
Golden Golves a few years back.
Gale Ferris, Pete Thorne, Frank
Nickerson, and Vein Hanscom are
all good boxers, who should be able
to hold their own.
For wrestlers there are Clarence
Francis, Willie Williams, Dale Pet
erson, and Harry Spence, who all
know their way through the ropes.
* # *
More on condition ... if you ask
Dimit he will tell you that train
ing on cream puffs is not such
a good idea ... he tried it once and
about the second round of the
scheduled three-round match he
was ready for the kill—then the
cream puffs hit him. and he and
his oponent just looked at each
other ... it is rumored that Slats
Gill is going to Stanford to replace
John Bunn as head basketball
coach . . . Bunn is the new dean of
men at the southern institution.

DU Quintet Takes A

Canard; Sigma Chi
Victors in B
Ho hum! They did it again!
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, those
fellows from the Alpha Tau Ome
ga house dropped another victim
on their way to the B league cham
pionship. The score was 51 to 12.
Now it isn’t the habit of the
school of education to create bat
tles, but if the Oregon varsity
hears of the ATOs impairing their
scoring record, it is likely there
will be a feud worse than that of
the Martins and the Coys in the
good old days in Kentucky.
The ATOs started scoring less
than a minute after the whistle
had blown and were still potting
the shots when the game ended.
At half time the score stood 12 to
2 in favor of the hotelmen. They
really went to town in the final
half scoring 39 points in 12 min
utes or an average of 3 1-4 points
a minute.
Hans Karstens led the scoring
for the ATOs with 16 points fol
lowed by Jay Graybeal and Donald
Anderson with 12 each.

Staving off a desperate last

The game was very fast, but
with both teams showing spells of
ragged playing. The clubbers were
unable to work together or to hit
the bucket in the pinches.
At half time the score was 15
to 10 for the DUs. Starting the
second half the DU five scored six
points before the Canard team
could connect. The clubbers then
rallied but were unable to over
come the lead against them.
Paul Thuneman led the victors
with 8 points, followed by Connie

Ducks Prepared for
Eugene Invasion by
State's Orangemen
Oregon's Newest Athletic Teams Will Make
Initial Start This Evening Against OSC
Boxers, Wrestlers at Igloo
Another invasion of the Oregon campus tonight, and this time
official sanction and encouragement is assured the loyal Ducks who
will strive—and sweat—to defend the honor of the University.
McArthur court at 7:30 will be the scene of the combat, which
will include nine fistic and eight limb-twisting matches in the debut
of the newly-organized University boxing and wrestling team.
Jim Dimit, maestro of the local
boxers, considers his men in good
shape, and will be watching with
especial interest the showing made
by Ris Inskeep, 215-pound former
Big Nine champ and gridiron star,
who will tangle, with the Beavers’
Ben Ell, also a fullback during
autumn months.
Nickerson Fast
The speediest exhibition of th3
evening probably will be furnished
by Tiger Nickerson of the Univer
sity team, in his welterweight bout
with Merle Johnson.
Smoky Whitfield, popular dusky
middleweight, appears in top con
dition for trading punches with
Earl Williams of OSC. Smoky was
Chicago Golden Gloves finalist in
1934, and has considerable exper
ience to his credit. Gale Ferris,
the other middleweight, who has
won applause in recent campus
exhibitions, will toss his much
respected fists at Homer Millard.
In the 155 division, Merle Hans
com, who recently awed ringsiders
by ‘‘cooling" two sparring part
ners in one afternoon, meets the
Beavers’ Earl Williams. Pete
Thorne in the same weight takes
i on Ted Lindley, and the card is
rounded out by Don Towers and
1 Bob Kroessin, Webfoot welter
; weights, who are matched with
Phil Lane and Bill Hour, respec
tively.
Francis Former Champ
Still more former and present
titleholders will be included in the
wrestling team’s half of the pro
gram. Willie Williams, 195-pound
rough boy, tackles Beaver At
Young—and is favored to carry off
the honors. Williams, ’37 intra
mural kingpin, was runner-up last
year in the Pacific Northwest,
Amateur tournament. Clarence
j Francis, Big Nine and Oregon
campus champ in the 135 division,
will turn on all his speed tonight
against the Staters’ Bob McRob
erts.
To Harry Schaffer, Oregon wel
terweight, falls the task of subdu
ing the Beavers’ best, Darle Dud
ley. Schaffer, though, can call on
several year’s Multnomah club ex
perience. Mort Myers, 145, OSC
transfer, will meet Wayne Cook,
tind Jim Mountain, the third Ore
gon representative in this weight,
tries his bone-breaking ability on
Hershel Peyree from Corvallis.
I’eterson Wrestler
' The Beaver with the reputation
as a prospective PNA-er, Ted Tib
butt, probably will encounter stiff
competition from Oregon's Dale
Peterson, 175-pound muscleman,
A former Bay City resident, Harry
Spence, will defend Oregon colors
against Bob Nelson in the 165
class, and Webfoot Bob Roberts is
matched with Emil Ek at 155. A1
Bogue, University wrestling team
coach, is pinning much of his hopes
on Roberts, who has shown himself
outstanding in strength and en
durance.
Admission to ASUO members
will be 25 cents, 10 cents to non
members. The meet is scheduled
to start at 7:60 so that students
planning to may attend the sopho
more whiskerino later in the even
ing.

Oregon Will Defend
First Place Against
Washington Tonight
Laddie Gale, Slim Wintermute, Bob Anet
Wally Johansen, Ted Sarpola Will Start
With Dave Silver in Reserve
By GEORGE PASERO
Primed for a court-burning battle, Coach Hobby Hobson and his
towering Oregon basketeers move their baggage over to the huge
University of Washington pavilion today where they will await the
whistle calling them to the court to defend their first place standing
from the challenge of Hec Edmundson’s driving Huskies.
Still perched atop the northern division ladder with almost a third
of the season past history, the
Oregonians have no illusions
about the prowess of the Huskies
and are determined to run the
Seattle boys clear out of their
huge “shack.”
Although given only an even
break with the fast-moving Wash
ingtonians, by sport writers, Hob
by hopes that his Ducks will sweep
the two-game series, Friday and
Saturday nights, and head east
ward to Missoula, Montana, still
leading the pack. The Webfoots
meet the Grizzlies Monday and
Tuesday nights.
The Huskies, however, entertain
quite different notions, knowing
that by winning both games they
can usurp the Ducks’ roost.
Scoring Battle
Primarily the crowd tonight will
be watching the team battle, but
secondly, their attention will be
focused on two high-powered scor
ers, Laddie Gale of the Ducks and
Harry Lockhart of the Huskies.
With only four points separating
these two boys in the scoring col
umin, they should stage a duel that
will long be remembered in the
Puget Sound city. Gale has amas
sed 78 points in six games while
it has taken eight for Lockhart to
collect 74.
Reports from the north indicate
that canny Hec Edmundson is con
centrating his attention on stop
ping the tall Oakridge lad with the
big hands in order to give Mr.
Lockhart a chance to step out in
front of “The Lad,” but when it
comes to young Mr. Lockhart step
ping away from Gale, a fellow by
the name of Hobson will have
something to say and plenty to
say it with—10 men to be exact.
Silver With Team
Assisting Gale tnoight will be
the same boys who have stood be
side him all season, Wally Johan
sen, Bobby Anet, Slim Wintermute,
Ted Sarpola. These five will prob
ably start with tall Dave Silver,
who rejointed the squad Wednes
day, due to see plenty of action.
Johansen and Anet, the Astoria
basket-pitching “twins,” are rated
as two of the best guards in the
conference while Slim Wintermute
has no peer when it comes to
height, standing a mere six-feet
eight inches. Wintermute, next to
Gale, is the boy the Huskies fear
the most.
Sarpola, the other member of the
starting five, is a sophomore and
hails from Astoria, the home of
Anet and Johansen.
Silver is a senior and won all
star honors last year. Matt Pava
lunas and Ford Mullen, a pair of
stocky guards; tall Ray Jewell,
center, and John Dick, bruising
forward, also should see service
for the boys in the lemon and
green.
Conniving on the side of Mr.
Lockhart will be such stalwarts as
Dick Voelker, Captain Ross Wer
ner, Georgie Ziegenfuss, and eith
er Pat Dorsey or Roy Williamson.
The first three scored heavily in
Washington’s road trip into Idaho
and Montana. Williamson, a sub,
has come though to threaten Dor
' sey’s place on the starting five.
If the Huskies start Dorsey, the
opening five for the purple and
gold will be an all-letterman com
bination.
Last year when Oregon tied for
the conference championship with
these same Huskies and Washing
ton State, the Ducks were able to
win only one game from the Hus
kies, that one on McArthur court.
The scores of the games were 48
to 37, 30 to 39, 25 to 42, and 28
to 41.
Alpha Hall Sweeps
To Win Over Delts
Win All Three Games;
Theta Chis Defeat
Sherry Ross
Two uneven handball matches
were played Thursday as Theta
Chi trounced Sherry Ross hall
while Alpha hall walked over Delta
Tau Delta, 3 to 0.
James Jarvis, Theta Chi, ad
ministered a drubbing to Alan
Schwartzberg of Sherry Ross in
the first singles, 21-1, 31-3. Herb
Clark took the second match from
John Davenport, 21-5, 21-9. The
doubles team of Lee and Pease won
by a forfeit.
In the second match of the af
ternoon, Bob Wines defeated Roy
Vernstrom, 21-1, 21-5, for Alpha
hall's initial win. Jule Graff fol
lowed by setting George Hall down
21-3, 21-3. Then Parks and McCool
won over the Delt team of Baxter
and Walt Vernstrom, 21-5, 21-7.
By mutual consent, the macth
between Alpha hall and the Delts
was held Thursday instead of Fri
day afternoon, as' had been pre
viously scheduled. There will be
no intramural handball match this
afternoon.
Kappa Women Take
Alpha Phis, 23 to 14
Kappa Kappa Gamma over
whelmed Alpha Phi 21-14 in a hard
game in women’s basketball Thurs
day afternoon. Alpha Phi was very
- inexperienced and unable to cope
with the Kappa offense, however,
the playing on both sides was
somewhat ragged. Alpha Phi
greatly handicapped herself by her
long passes which were easily in
tercepted by Kappa Gamma.

DO COW- PUNCHERS APPRECIATE
CAMELS COSTLIER TOBACCOS ?
TED YOCHUM was born and raised in the
cattle country. Speaking from personal
observation, Ted says: "Cow-punchers are
great Camel smokers. Seems like if a man
smokes Camels once —he sticks to ’em. Come
round-up time — I’m in the saddle for hours,
and not sparin’ myself. A Camel sure hits
the spot then. I get a mighty pleasant 'lift.’ ”
Yes, and to America at large, Camel's costlier
tobaccos have such a special appeal that they are
the largest-selling cigarette in this country!
COLLEGE STUDENT Herb Weast

exams, nerves often tighten up. I've
found Camels don't get on my nerves.”
