    .Oregon Cagers Hitfby ‘Sick’ Bug;
Rook Quintet Trounces Little Ducks

Wiley, Lavey .
In Infirmary
With the Oregon State basket
jell game only one day away, Ore
gon’s chances for a victory took a
sudden turn for the worse with
attacks of dysentery bedding two
members of the team, and being
mildly experienced by other cag
ers.
Roger Wiley and Bob Lavey
Were confined to infirmary beds
yesterday, and’ their playing
status is questionable. Most ser
ious consequence of the mild ep
idemic sweeping the Duck basket
bailers is not that it will keep the
men out of the game but rather
that the sickness tends to sap 'the
strength and endurance of the
players.
Dr. F. N. Miller at the infirmary
told team physician, Dr. G. F.
Guldager, that the disease “is
sort of a bug which is going around
the campus.” Dr. Miller emphasized
that dysentery was by no means
urevalent at the University, but
that its occurance recently indi
cated that the basketball team Was
not alone in feeling the effects.
With Lavey and Wiley absent
from yesterday's session, Warren
ltelcl only a light workout for his
stricken charges, using a starting
team of Stan Williamson, Reedy
Berg, Bob Amacher, Bob Don, and
Dick Wilkins. Today, tapering-off
drills will be in store for the Web
foots in their final practice before
Ihe crucial Aggie game.

Rapidly Improving
Turning in peak performances in the two Washington State contests
this week, 6-foot, 8-inch Bob Amacher is slated for plenty of heavy
duty for the Webfoots when they meet Oregon State tomorrow night.
He may have to replace Huger Wiley, who is ill.
