Sigma Nus
Nip Fijis
The Sigma Nus hung on des
perately through three tough
games to down the Fijis in a close
tussle, 16 to 14, 10 to 15, 15 to 10.
With the quartet of Bill Car
ney, John Bubalo, Ted Sarpola,
and W'iercer Brown proving
the stalwarts in their offense,
the Sigma Nu team outlasted
the Alder street boys to take
the first game in a well-played
overtime.
The Fijis roared back in the
second game to down the Sigma
Nus, but the first game winners

Oregon Kept Running
Meanwhile, the Igloo floor has
resounded to the constant tram
ple of many feet as Hobson has
been driving his charges through
the rigid preparatory workouts.
Fast breaking exercises from re

daily routine for the Driving
Ducks.
Wednesday, Hobby devoted
considerable time to plays
which featured breaking,
screening, and cross-c o u r t
blocking. Timing of plays and
ball handling was also stressed.
Showing the way in this high
speed offense was a pair of quick
moving guards—Captain Porky
Andrews and Paul Jackson. The
latter was all over the floor,

What Coed Grid
Fans Shouldnt Do
Why do women go to the foot
ball games and what do they do
when they do go? This is the
problem that is puzzling Cliff
Giffin, Oregon’s sophomore tac
kle, today.
Last night Margaret Brown,
president of AOPi was keeping
the conversation alive at the ex
change dessert with the Pi Kaps
when she came up with this little
gem. Talking to Giffin she inno
cently asked,
“Cliff, did you go to the game
in Portland yesterday?”
Miss Brown couldn’t under
stand the reason for Mr. Giffin’s
cool answer.

Canard Club
The Theta Chi volleyball ma

was bare of so-called shining

hapless Canard boys.

The DUs drove to a 15 to 3, 15

far below last season's par but
were good enough to down the

Injuries Hit Duck Mermen;
Splashers Irvin, Wilson Out
It doesn’t seem logical that a swimming team would be bothered
with the misfortunes of injuries. After all, they work in cool, soft
water, no hard bumps as in football or mix-ups as in basketball;
yet today Bob Irvin, sophomore sprinter, and Willard Wilson, varsity
diver, are on the injured list with little hope of returning soon.
This situation has sent coach Mike Iloyman into a conference
with himself to revamp his plans
of attack for the coming year. It
is his policy never to “hope” that
some injured swimmer will final
ly come around' to fill a vacant
spot; instead, he goes right ahead
with the material at hand and
works from there.
Soph Takes Over
As things stand now, Chuck
Nelson, sophomore speedster, is
slated to assume Irvin’s duties in
the freestyle sprints. Taking over
Nelson’s place in the backstroke
will be Bob Prowell, who will also
have the job of holding Veteran
Cub Callis in check.
The diving outlook seems to
he hopeless. The loss of Wilson
reveals the startling fact that
there is no reserve varsity div
er available. The frosh have a
sensational diver in A1 Bisma
jian, hut little good that does
the varsity. Until Wilson re
turns the high hoard will be si
lent.

The Pi Beta Phi “nine” went
down under the mighty Orides
last night in a very slow volley
ball game at Gerlinger hall. With
a final score of 48 to 20, Mary
“Pete” Lawson and Mary Ander
son led the way for the Orides
while Mary Louise Vincent and
Peggy Wright played a shining
defense.
