Duck
Tracks
By BOB FLAVELLE, Co-Sports Editor
Despite the fact that the University of Oregon basket
ball team has in the past three weeks put on a terrific uphill
battle to move from the bottom of northern division stand
ings to second place in the league, interest in the team seems
to have declined and the students are currently concen
trating on weekend social engagements and almost com
pletely forgetting that the Webfoots are in for a tough
session with the second-place Beavers at Corvallis this
weekend.
Perhaps we are wrong, but it appears to us that since the
two Idaho disappointments, in which the Vandals appeared
to he more interested in hearing the referee’s whistle than
winning the hall game, the student body has lost interest in
the welfare of the Duck quintet. You can’t exactly blame the
crowd for becoming disgusted with the Vandals. Heralded as
a fine hall club with three of the division’s leading scorers in the
lineup, the Idaho five performed like a hunch of liigh-scliool
kids and at times the sportsmanship of the visitors was terrible.
Oregon Faces Its Toughest Game
The fact still remains, however, that the contest this Satur
day against Oregon State is one of the most important of the
Ducks’ remaining four games. Playing on the rival’s floor,
Oregon will be up against a Beaver squad that is still very
much in the running for the northern division crown and will
therefore he fighting desperately to hang onto their hopes of
winning the championship.
In addition, the Orangemen will have a* personal score
to settle with Oregon. After losing the first game by a
41 to 31 score at Corvallis, the Beavers traveled to Eugene,
r and after leading at every stage of the regular playing
time, saw their victory snatched from them by one of
Hank Anderson’s midcourt, uncanny howitzers. This sort
of treatment did not make the Oregon State bunch very
happy and put them into a frame of mind where they now
feel that to win this game and prevent the Ducks from
taking the series, is of as great, if not greater importance,
than winning the northern division title.
So if Oregon wins the game tomorrow bight, it will be their
greatest achievement of the year . . . accomplished under
terrific odds and with very few friendly fans in the stands to
cheer them on. (Because of the lack of space in the cramped
men’s gym at Corvallis, but 50-odd ducats are available to
Oregon students.)
Boxing Bubble Bursts—As Usual
What has happened to Oregon’s supposedly strong boxing
team? It has disappeared, and not because of lack of interest
on the part of the students hut rather because of the cool
attitude the athletic department takes toward the building of
the pugilistic art into a paying proposition.
For most of last and all of this school year, boxers have
worked out every afternoon under the supervision of Pete
Riley, one of the best collegiate welterweights on the coast,
looking forward to actual competition with other college
teams, having been led to believe that other teams had
been contacted and meets were sure to result,
lint the athletes were fooled. As has been the ease for many
years here at Oregon no attempt was made to line up matches
for the boxers ahead of time. They waited until the beginning
of this term, when other teams had a full schedule made out,
before they tried to get matches for tin; Wcbfoot sluggers.
Whenever a school considers appropriating a sum of
money to an activity, they first investigate the possibilities
that exist of the proposed activity paying for itself. That is
what has happened to boxing. The authorities won’t budget
money for a ring team because “boxing isn’t a paying
sport,’’ and won’t appropriate money until boxing “be
comes a paying sport. ’ ’ I ask you . . . how can any activity
gain in student interest and reach a paying basis if the
school will not give said activity a fair chance to get started
ond prove its popularity?

Duck Mermen Leave for Husky Stronghold
Eight Men
Make Duo
Meet Trip
Star-Studded Team
To Face Webfoots;
Oregon Said Ready
By FRED TREADGOLD
A small, but vowing band of
Oregon swimmers with but one
intent—that of humiliating the
powerful Washington Huskies
in the annual dual classic Sat
urday—will entrain for Seat
tle this afternoon at 4:20. The
northerners, who boast an un
beaten season to date, will be
out to clip the Webfoot tail
feathers in retaliation for the
loss handed them by Oregon in
their dual meeting last year.
Three Wins
Three victories have been salted
away by the Ducks already this
season. Idaho was turned back 53
to 25, while Oregon State received
a double drubbing, 50 to 24 and
42 to 32.
The Duck traveling squad con
sists of eight swimmers, Coach
Mike Hoyman, and Manager Cliff
Sexsmith. Swimmers making the
trip are Dallas, Wetmore, Huestis,
Cub Callis, Jim Marnie, A1 Sand
ner, Jim Harris and Dick Allen.
Huskies Favored
“Considering stop - watch times
in meets held this year, Washing
ton should take six first places
with Oregon winning only three
firsts,’’ Coach Mike Hoyman de
clared. “However,” he quickly
added, “if our team happens to
explode and individuals rise to
their best performances, Washing
j ton will know that they have been
through something.”
Re-echoing their coach's words
in actions, the varsity displayed
convincing form in a practice
meet with the freshmen and in
eligibles Thursday. Especially note
worthy were the neat jobs turned
in by Co-captains Jack Dallas and
Sherm Wetmore, in their spe
cialties.
Heading Washington’s vanguard
i,s the point-collecting duo of
George Athans, star diver, and
Jack Ranquet, ace freest yler.
Athans competed in the 1936
Olympics and at one time was
holder of the Canadian national
diving championship. A speedy 57
second record in the 100-yard free
style is claimed by Ranquet.

they fought a hard game, were
dunked, 31 to 9, by a tough Kappa
Sigma quintet. The Superchargers
held the Kappa Sigs to a 7 to 7
tie in the first quarter, but in the
remaining time they fell steadily
behind. Dick Horne, Kappa Sig,
was high point with eight.

Duckling, Rook Quintets
Clash Tonight at Corvallis
By LEE FLATBERG
The University of Oregon Duckling hoopmen trek to Corvalli3 to
night to mix with the rooks in the third battle of a closely fought
“Little Civil War." Pursuing their third win at the expense of the
Oregon State Babes, the frosh, on paper, loom as favorites, but follow
ers of Oregon-Oregon State athletic events know well that past
performances can be forgotten when the two schools battle.
Ducks Eye Beavers,
Drill on Free Throws
Today Oregon basketball players skip through an abbreviated work
out, well-earned after a bruising week of intrasquad drill and rugged
skirmishes with John Warren’s frosh outfit.
Tomorrow the Webfoots wrap up their fast-break offense, hike over
to Corvallis, and dump it on Oregon State’s Beavers.
“We’re in the best condition, the best we’ve been all season,” averred
BOTHERS OSC
Bill Borcher, Oregon forward,
will be ready Saturday when the
Duek and Beaver basketball teams
play at Corvallis. Boreher is a de
pendable rebound-nabber.
Alexander Granovsky, associate
professor of entomology at the
University of Minnesota, is na
tional president of the Organiza
tion of the Rebirth of the Ukraine.
Wellesley college has a war re
lief workroom.
Webfoot Mentor Hobby Hobson,
and a peek at the Ducks rehears
ing this week would substantiate
this contention. Not only are the
Webfoots in excellent physical
condition to keep pounding
through 40 minutes of fast break
ing offense, but their morale ap
pears impregnable.
Hold Free Throw Drill
Much of yesterday's practice
session was absorbed in frec-throw
rehearsal, as the Ducks straddled
the foul line and took turns lofting
the ball through the hoop. In the
last Oregon State game, the Web
foots connected with two more
tosses from the floor than did the
Beavers, but were sorely ineffec
tive on gratis tries, nearly drop
ping the game on that count.
Starters Uncertain
Whether Hobson will ^start, the
combination of Vic Townsend, Bill
Boreher, Archie Marshik, Don
Kirsch, and Porky Andrews that
purred along with finesse in the
last Idaho series is a matter of
conjecture. Hank Anderson has
been plugging along all week, has
apparently shed the soreness that
afflicted his knee, and may get
the call for one of the forward
berths.
Regardless of whom he starts, the
Oregon coach will have a flock of
capable men in Warren Taylor,
Paul Jackson, Rolph Fuhrman,
Wally Borrevik, and Quentin Side
singer to wave off the bench
should his starting five show signs
of petering out.
Southern California area of the
University of California extension
division recently added 17 new in
structors.

mougn tne ngures on paper ta
vor the frosh, the rooks can't be
sold short, not by any means. A
close look at the setup would indi
cate that Bill McKallip's squad
should have the favored seat.
They have taken the short end of
the scores with tha frosh for six
games in a row, and tonight they
will be out on the floor of the men’s
gym with everything to win and
nothing to lose.
Close Games
The past two games between the
two teams have been close. Two
points in the last few minutes of
play decided the issue. The frosh
grabbed the first encounter in the
last few minutes of play when Bob
Wren made a basket and Newland
tucked the other game in the bag
with just three seconds to go.

hard won victories over Kappa

out of three to place them opposite

Thursday afternoon and let the
ads take things easy as they took
i few casual shots, dropped in a
few foul pitches, and headed for
the showers.
Newland Ready
Newland will be ready for the
game tonight after a rest in the
infirmary. Along with Newland in
the starting lineup for the Warren
men will be Ken Simonsen as his
running mate, Lloyd Jackson at
center, and Bob Sheridan and Bob
Wren at forwards.
The probable rook starting line
up will find Ben Atwood and Hiatt
at forwards, Glenn Warren at cen
ter, and Lewis Beck and Bill Mc
Cluskey or Bud McKee at guards.
