INVADING GENERAL —Phcto Courtesy Eugene Daily News Field Marshall General Lcn Stiner drives his Beaver infantry into Eugene’s Hayward stadium fcr an all-oat offensive against the de fending Webfoot forces. 'Aqua-Slugs' Crawl With 'Lugs’ Today By DON RICHARDSON Swimming; Coach Mike Hoy man will present an early-season preview of his Webfoot splashers, both varsity and frosh, today at 4 p.m. in an intersquad meet at the men’s pool. It will be open to ! the student body and visitors free of charge. “These intersquad meets often \ are better than regular confer ence swims,” Hoyman commented yesterday. This will be the first chance for Duck rooters to view this year’s edition of aqua splashers, which show promises of being one of the strongest teams in the Northern division race. Hoyman has combined the varsity and frosh squads into two teams. “The Lugs,” cap tained by Chuck Nelson and Jack Robinson, and the “Slugs,” led by Cub Callis and Gerry Huestis, both hold high hopes of winning, because it has been decided that the losers are to meet the wood (get hacked). Two newcomers to the varsity squad will make their debut to day. Don Belding will help Gerry Huestis uphold the honor of the “Slugs” against “Lug” Ralph Huestis in the 200-yard breast stroke event. Dick Ashrow, an other “Slug” is slated to swim in the 150-yard back stroke and the 440-yard relay. Frosh taking part in the - meet are Bob Hanke, Tom Haz zard, Gene Davis, A1 Peterson, ^nd A1 Basmaiian. Their tun out will be limited because of illness among several mem bers. There will be plenty of action in every race, but there are two or three that will be of special interest. Another chapter in the back stroke duel between Chuck Nelson and Cub Callis will be written as these two speedsters tangle in the 150 yard event. Probably the hottest races will develop between Jack Robinson and Dick Smith in the 220-yard and 440-yard free style tilts. Smith has been out of competi tion for a year while serving with Uncle Sam, but is working back into condition again. Robinson, who is only a sophomore, has been burning up the lanes so far this year, and shows promise of being one of the best distance men in the conference. Dr. Staples Takes Geological Holiday Dr. Lloyd W. Staples, assistant professor of geology, attended the opening of Charleton’s com mercial laboratory in Portland recently. The only commercial spectroscope in use in Oregon was displayed, and the effects of impurities in diamond's in pro ducing fluorescence shown, ac cording to Dr. Staples. The remainder of the vacation Dr. Staples spent near Burns, making a geological study of an area reported to yield tin, in an attempt to find out whether or not the region has commercial possibilities. Results of his study will be determined in the labora tory here. . Ducks Topple Rubes In Practice Contest -V wv~ New Players Star in High Scoring Tilt By FRED TREADGOLD Oregon’s varsity, playing a fast brand rf ball, outlasted the Rubensteins last night in an other of their practice scrim mages at the Igloo. No official score was tabulated. Starting out in fine style, the Rubes ran up an early lead be fore the Ducks got roling. Once started Oregon soon had things swinging their way and by half time claimed a slight mar gin. Oregon Extends Lead While the Rubes experimented with new players, the Ducks speeded up the play, and Howard Hobson's green and yellow-clad quintet stretched this lead to a sizeable degree. Things ended with the Rubes closing the gap, thanks to the heavy firing of Earl- Sandness and Ted Sarpola, ex-Webfoots. It was a case of laxitv in de fense by both teams, rather than exceptional scoring prowess that was responsible for the heavy bombardment of the hoop. All Ducks turned in a fairly good account of themselves though at times the ball handling was rough. Two newcomers, Will son Maynard and John Erickson, came through with promising performances. Maynard was very effective with two-handed howit zers, while Erickson displayed a deadly lefthanded shot. The Rubes’ “Big Four” of Jack Butterworth, Laddie Gale, Sandness, and Sarpola, once more monopolized the scoring. Gale’s fake-and-slioot tactics were particularly lethal, while Sandness produced some stellar overhead shots. Veterans Start Starting for the Ducks were Bob Wren and Rolph Fuhrman, forwards; Lloyd Jackson, center; “Porky” Andrews and Paul Jack son, guards. Reserves entering the contest for Oregon were: Don Kirsch, Bob Newland, Archie Marshik, Cliff Anet, Maynard, and Erickson. Colds kept Warren Taylor and Warren Christiansen on the bench. Both should be back in uniform within the next few days. OSC in Pink (Continued from page four) in any coaches’ back yard.

UNIVERSITY TAILOR 1128 Alder Kappa Sigs, Chi Psis By TOM HUEBNER Although Homecoming signs, evidently now in the making, took their quota of athletes from their respective houses, three eager volleyball teams showed up for Wednesday’s contests in the PE building. Kappa Sigma after winning one tilt, 15 to 9, lost the second to the Chi Psi sextet by a score of 15 to 8 and then fought their way to the top to take the final bout, 15 to 7, thereby taking the se ries. High point honors go to Cor bett and Montage, Kappa Sigs. Chi Psi Dumps Sigma Nu A mighty Chi Psi outfit, al though they were stopped cold by a mightier Sigma Nu, 15 to 8, in their second tilt, took the two remaniing bouts, 15 to 6 and 15 to 12, respectively, to- capture win honors in their name. Much of their good luck can be attrib uted to the activity of Morry Ambrose and A1 Putnam. Gamma Hall Shines After sporting bad luck in nu merous contests previously, Gam ma hall took a turn for the bet ter yesterday when they admin istered a sound 15 to 3—18 to 15 drubbing to Kirkwood co-op. Both teams used a style of play calcu lated to outplay their opponents by forcing them to return serves into the net. Honors, if any, go to Gamma hall’s Pattison and Peterson. Three Defaults The other three games sched uled for yesterday were all de faulted. In the “A” league the Sig Eps defaulted to DU and Sherry Ross lost by default to Kirkwood. In the “B” league Theta Chi won by default over the Sig Eps. Dr. Theodore M. Bischoff, M.D. ’39, are receiving congratulations on the birth of a daughter, Susan Carroll.

LawyersMess On Gridiron It took a writ of habeas corpus to get most of the law school sen ior class out to the football field last Friday afternoon but once they got started the freshman class couldn’t hold them back in spite of their appeals to the judges and claims of nolo con tendere. The seniors won, 6 to 0, which coupled with their victory over the second-year class the week before, gave them the law school pennant. The seniors depended on power drives through center for their yardage with Fullback Irving Mann carrying the ball. The only threat made by the freshmen was a passing attack by Carl Little, halfback. Veteran Phil Lowry of the senior squad was on the bench due to the drubbing he took in the game the week before. The young lawyers now plan to chal lenge the seniors of the school of business administration to a game. Three Pledged Three more men students were pledged by three houses within the last week, announced the dean of men’s office, Tuesday. These were: Fred James Lloyd of Klamath Falls, who was pledged by Kappa Sigma; James Magee, Rieth, pledged by P-hi Sigma Kappa; and Dudley Fager strom, San Jose, California, pledged by Chi Psi.
