SKY ARTIST . . . . . . Freshman Roi>- Wiley, the 6-foot, 8-inch specialist, is a handy »;ent to have on your basketball team. ^bichF& ^hehut Gatpe Cedent By DON LOME This is a tenfold tribute to a Hobby H. specialty who has earned his chevron as a back board bambino tried and true. About to be unfolded before your wandering' eyes is the tale of the fourth in a line of Dicks to be Jet loose on this campus in the last ten years. For many moons, now. theie have been Dicks lurk ing behind every tree, beneath every shrub, under every win dow. No, indeed, this is not a lef orencek to coppers. Dicks are what Ed, the latest campus in terpretation of the family, is one of. From The Dalles Originally from The Dalles and before that strictly from sensa Hi: \1) OF HUSKIES . . . . . Htv Kilmunson, melon chief for {lie University of Washington, li.i > watched his charges move in iintl out of first place. tional, Ed has been dribbling around the floor for longer than long'. For the local high school at that trading post he played varsity ball, both foot and basket, and the gang decided to send him down to college to see what he could do. In his right pocket he carried a state championship which his team of gridironers copped and in his left he guard ed a knowledge of basketball ins and outts. Basketball he loved best, hence decided to try at it. Results? Not bad. This, his first term out. produced a fresh man who lias seen action against every team the green-yellows have played, one who will prob ably win his letter his first year, and one who really looked good against that unhappiest *of all teams, the Vandals. Hats Off To you, Brother Ed, we doff our liat. Success and fortune will no doubt be yours. Incidentally, we would like to see Ed back here "Every Year About This Time" but the V-l men haven’t had an inkling of their future plans, so Ed doesn’t know when the news will be out and he will be in. “Law-sy me” might well l>e what Mr. l)iek calls himself, for he will one day prove himself a sage of the seat when he becomes of age and is admitted to the har. Aspirations pertaining to law are his and currently he is practic ing proper gavel strokes on his brother's head. In concussion, winch is a bet ter word than conclusion, we advocate the following slogan— "Watch Dick."

Delts, Post Wins After trailing throughout the first half, a fighting Omega quin tet rallied to defeat a strong The ta Chi squad, 17-11, in the feature of yesterday’s all B card. The Omegas were at a disadvantage as far as height was concerned, and had also lost one of their stel lar guards, Del Burk, to the army a few days before. Both teams were well supported, which add ed much spirit to an already spir ited contest. Gordy Miller, who took the position vacated by Burk, proved to be the determin ing factor for the victors, as he caged several long shots late in the third period to give them a lead they never relinquished.

Roy Seeborg had the Idaho Vandals on the run Monday night with his basket bombing activities. (Continued from page one) ket but kept the Oregon attack blazing with his here-and-thero scampering. Idaho’s offensive was cramped when Norm Fredekind, Bob Ryr'j and Cliff Benson, all starter were given the boot on four fouls as Referees Emil Piluso and Hal Lee overworked their horns. They charged a total of 34 personals, 21 on the visitors. No. Division Standings W. L. Pet. Washington State ..5 2 .714 Washington .5 3 .625 Oregon .6 4 .600 Oregon State .4 4 .500 Idaho .1 8 .111 J. Ryan Shines It was Johnny Ryan, one half of Idaho’s brother duo, who made life miserable for the Duck zone defense. Young Ryan hawked the leather all over the hard wooods and swished five long distance one handers from ’ws { out. His 12 points allowed him to share top point honors with the point-tossing Quinn. Rog (Big Boy) Wiley, stork like Duck pivotman, chipped the ice after 1H minutes were past when he canned a foul toss on an offense charged to Norm Fredekind. Babe Brown's battling Vandals jumped into the lead, 4 to 1, with a bang when Benson plunked one from 15 feet, Bob Ryan added a gift throw, and Brother John Ryan came through with a free one. Three minutes elapsed with the fives rattling up and down the hoards unable to connect. Then Warren Taylor brushed aside clawing Idahoans to plop in a cripple to knot matters at 4-all, following a gravy toss by Ro^w Seeborg. Williamson Scores Half-pint Williamson came through when given three foul chances to raise the Oregon ante to 7 while Idaho was blanked. Lanky Wiley popped through another gifter and Kirsch holed out two field goals on the fast break as did Seeborg in a bril liant down-floor solo through the Vandal ranks. While this was go ing on for Oregon, J. Ryan and Benson both canned those long one-handers from 25 feet distant and the scoreboard read 14 to 8, Oregon. At the half-way mark Quinn shook loose for his first one, a hook from the right, but Rolph Fuhrman, entering as a substi tute, more than offset Quinn’s efforts with two rapid-fire otn^jj handers from afar. Score: 18-10. Even Up Then the losers shifted into second and with John Ryan, Quinn, Benson. Fredekind hoist ing good ones through the hemp, Idaho pulled up. With 55 seconds remaining in the initial stanza things were tied as tightly as a Scotchman’s purse-strings, 22 to A two-bucket flurry with Wil liamson and Kirsch acting on lightning fast breaks permitted the Hobson pupils to trot into the dressing room at mid-game with a slight 26 to 22 advantage^ Plan of attack for the Vandal^J in the second half was simple.
