DUCK TRACKS ^^^■ggniiiiipinMnniiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiniuiiiiiNiminniiiutiiiinni By ELBERT HAWKINS j I On the night of Deceml>er 1«, 1939, University of Oregon’s de fending national basketball cham pions will scamper onto the boards of Madison Square Garden, New York, for their second appearance there in two years. And they’ll nave a great cnance to avenge some derogatory remarks wmcn came out of New' 1 ork after last winter’s title showing, for Long Island university will be the op position. Long Island, you'll recall, won a lot of games last year and took some wind out of Oregon’s sails by claiming a mythical national championship. The Long Island boys didn't even play a game out of their own backyard, and would n’t or couldn't go in the AAU of ficial championship play-offs so their claim didn't look so good af ter all. Nevertheless some bitter re marks came out of the East about our basketball greats. For instance, Tom Meaney of the New York World Telegram wrote, “Oregon's victory over Ohio State in the bas- j ketball finals is a long distance j boost for NY teams. C.C.N.Y. found several of the locals tougher than Oregon.” Oregon lost to City College of New York in last year’s Madison; Square Garden opener by a two- j point margin in a game which coaches later agreed was officiated j purely from a home town view'-; point. In fact, this discrepancy: was recognized when Oregon was j invited back there and Hobby was promised “a square deal this time.” Anyway, it’ll be Long Island in jYiauison square uaraen on De cember 10. Three other games are' definitely billed for the. Weblools: Temple ut Philadelphia on De cember J». Purdue at Lafayette on Decem ber. 33. DePaul at Chicago on December 25. A game with Wayne university in Detroit is also a virtual cer tainty, and some team in the deep South will probably be added as a warm-up game for the Garden appearance. All in all, Hobby Hob son plans on playing a seven or eight-game schedule. The trip won’t have as many games as last winter but the Oregon brain trust ers are purposely planning a short er slate to give the team more rest before its northern division opener. Coach Hobby lias been offered enough dates to keep the team back East all winter. Which shows what fame championships bring. When Hobson went East last sum mer to arrange Oregon’s first Gar den tilt they hadn't even heard of the northern division or the tall fir Webfoots, and furthermore, didn't much care. The same stran gers now stampede for dates with Oregon. » * * Presenting, the 11)3!) all-coast basketball team. The conference moguls are usually pretty secret aliount announcing the quintet amt It’s often seen for the first time in the next year's rule hook. The Emerald gleaned this from a let ter, so maybe you haven't seen it before. Ralph Vaughn, USC, forward Laddie Gale, Oregon, forward Slim Wintermute, UO, forward , Bob Chalmers, Cal., guard George Ziegenfuss, Wash., guard The Oregon pair. Laddie and Slim, made just about every all star team possible during the year, including all opponents, northern division, coast, and western play off. Gulo made NLA's All-Ameri can besides. One of Bill Hayward's fondest dreams will come true this week end on the campus and the Oregon track coach won't be here to see it realized. Dozens and dozens ot Oregon state prep cindermen will be here for their annual state meet, but Colonel Bill has to be in Seat tle for the coast track and field championships with his own var > sity Wcbfoots. BUI exclaimed this spring, "I like to have tills field lull of Kids . . . the more the better ... 1 like to see them run.” The more lie sees here the happier he is. IJayward field has seen its sliaie of prep track meets this spring too, with the second annual Hay ward relays, (Hill's own idea), the Italic county high helioolers, etc,,1 bn, the biggest show ot 'em all Will be the state meet which comes to ICugenc hi-annually.

Right where they always are, in the campus fraternity' Bailey’s Washington Staters Check Winning Streak Duck’s Road Journey Ends Today (Continued from f>a'je one) Two more Cougars crossed the plate in the sixth when Butts trip led, Bransfors doubled, Dosskey singled, and Hooper doubled. The eighth saw the Cougars make their hitting spree good for three runs. Singh \ by Kinnaman, Angelo, Butts, an error by White, and a sacrifice fly by Bransfors did the damage. Final pair of Washington State runs, tallied in the eighth, were the direct result of singles by Kin naman and Angelo, and an error committed by Quinn. Leading hitters of Buck Bailey’s circus were Butts and Angelo, each with three, and Hooper and Kinnaman with two apiece.

Die/ or l)o<l Before leaving Friday, 1 lay wind will select either Bob Diez, dusky sprinter, or Lloyd Dod, hurdler, for the ninth position on the team. Brown, Vtiroff, and Keber took championships in their events at the Pullman and are all conceded points in the coast meet. Both Yar off and Brown will put in strong bids for first place honors. Reber. whose best mark is over 23 feet, will be jumping against California stars who have gone 21 and 2d feet. Storli, strong second place win ner m the northern division meet, and Don Barker, who has bettered the winning time at the Pullman meet six seconds or more, w ill also figure in the scoring. Uod Hansen, Varoffs vaulting mate, is a strong contender in the pole vault and may come through with a long-expected upset by de feating lus famous twin, Varoft. Both Varoff and Hansen as well as Southern Cal's Loring Day have done 11 feet t inches or better. houses.

Prep Track Stars Here This Week Thirteenth Annual Show Billed for Friday, Saturday Grant high school of Portland, winners of the District 8 qualify ing meet by an overwhelming margin, is the outstanding favor ite to cop the 13th annual Oregon high school track and field cham pionships to be held here on Hay ward field Friday and Saturday. ! Only weaknesses on the Grant squad, numbering 16 strong, are in 1 the mile run and the discus. In the 12 other events, the Grantonians show tremendous cinder power. Bend Brings 15 Bend high defending champions and' winners the past two years, will field the second largest dele gation, 15 men. However, judging from their performances this year, they are not given much of a chance of repeating or even tak ing second-place honors. Medford's well-balanced squad appears to have a good chance for runner-up honors. University of Oregon officials have completed plans for welcom ing the 220 prepsters Friday. Joe Huston has been named director and referee in the absence of Bill Hayward, who will be with his Webfoot squad at Seattle for the coast conference meet. All official entry lists from the eight districts were received yes terday and housing plans were be ing completed. Drawings for heats and lanes for the preliminary rac es will be made Friday morning. The shot put is the only event in which a new state record seems certain. Both Chuck Elliott of Eu gene and Ed Stamm of Grant can exceed the 52 foot 2 3-4 inch mark set by Blackledge of Corvallis sev eral years ago. Elliott's qualifying heave went 03 feet 3 inches.

Today’s game will be the second of the annual four-game series, the Orange Babes having won the first tilt, 7 to 3. John Warren has been working southpaw pitchers against his hard-hitting Ducklings to prepare them for Gene Elliott’s fast one. Warren is expected to shoot the works against Bud Forrester’s nine today and Bill Musselman will probably be his choice for the starting pitcher. If Musselman can turn in another performance like that of his Milwaukie no-hit ter he will make things plenty in teresting for Mr. Elliott. Leland Dragoo and Walt Gale will be ready to take over hurling duties should Musselman get into diffi culties. Infield Intact The infield which has started in the majority of the frosh games will remain intact for today’s game. Jim Goodhew will be guarding the first base post, Bill Skade and Leo Carrilho will form | the keystone combination and! Kennsy King will start at third base. Whitey Austin, who collected two singles Elliott will be behind the bat, catching Musselman's slants. Dick Whitman and Bill Carney, two leading Duckling batsmen, arc slated to open in left and cen ter field. Both of these lads are considered to be potential varsity material as they have played out standing ball throughout the sea son. Bob Adrian will start in right field. Elliott Rates No reports have been forthcom ing from Beaverville as to then starting lineup but it is a certain ty that Elliott will start as the pitcher. Bud Forrester, tobacco chawing rook coach, claims that Elliott is .just as good a pitcher right now as there is in uie north ern division. The remainder of the rook line up will probably include .Johnny Leovich at catcher, Halverson, Perryman, Weber, and Rankin in the infield, and' Schlegle, Durden j and Ballin will form the outfield combination. 'Eric Waldorf On UO Payroll Jefferson Mentor Given Year's Leave Of Absence Eric Waldorf, outstanding foot ball coach of Jefferson high; school in Portland, was named; graduate assistant in physical ed ucation and an assistant in ath letics here for the coming year, | Karl M.

Tri Delts and Orides Settle Title Today Coed Softball Flag At Stake in Big Game at Gerlinger By MARGARET YOUNG Beautifully placed along the third base line, a homer, smashed by Betty Giddings, put Orides in today’s championship contest as they edged out a 9 to 8 win from ' Kappa in the extra inning of yes terday’s coed softball semifinal match. The Orides started out with a1 bang as three runs crossed the plate in the first, then two more tallied in the third, and in the fifth the score stood at eight runs for the independent girls. Only seven of these were hits off Kappa’s moundsman, Dorothy Bates, who also struck out two and walked none. A fine job of pitching which won the honors for her since Ot ide’s Louise Pursley allowed ten hits, permitted one walk and fanned two. I led Late More consistent were the Kap pas, who sent one run in in each of the first four frames. Then on convenient last ups, they rallied with four to tie the game up and send the hungry players into a sixth inning. It was Oride’s five firsts on er rors and a few muffed plays by novice Kappas that left Orides with a chance at the Tri Delts and the crown today. Today's game between a rested Vadnais, Hobbs battery and yes terday's victorious Louise Pursley, Lewis combination merits an even larger assemblage of snickering males and loyal sisters, for both clubs will be out for blood and are sure to make it a good show. It starts at 5 o'clock. Score by innings: R H E Orides . 302 031— 9 7 5 Kappa . Ill 140 — 8 10 3 Batteries: Pursley and Lewis; D. Bates and Brown. Official: War tine Eastburn.
