    Palouse Trip
Vandals, WSC
Next on Duck
Swim Agenda
By Ron Ricketts
Keeping their conference record
in the win column will be tough
for the Duck swimmers as they
take on Washington State College
at Pullman and the University of
Idaho at Moscow this Friday and
Saturday.
The Cougars will probably give
Oregon its stiffest test yet this
.season. They have been highly un
derrated in the northern division.
Actually, they have the conference
champion in the 1500-meter free
style and also they have the num
fder one man in the 200-yard back
stroke.
They are very strong in the dis
-tance events and have several of
the strongest breaststrokers in the
conference. Coach Borchardt fig
ures the meet to be very- close, with
the second and third places to de
cide the winner.
The OSO meet indicated that
about half of the Duck swimmers
were not in shape. As a result,
. much of this week’s practice will
,-be spent on conditioning. Since the
team must be cut to 12 men for the
coming trip, there will be time
trials on Wednesday for the men
which have not clinched spots.
Yosh Terada looked good in win
ning the 100-yard individual med
ley at OSC. His 1:00.7 was one of
the best times recorded on the
coast this year. This weekend he'll
be entered in the 200-yard back
stroke, the 400-yard freestyle re
lay, and the individual medley.

8 from the SU cellar
By Jim Mahoney
Are you often embarrassed at
your inability to answer simple
■questions about your University?
Ate you shunned because of your
-ignorance as to the purpose of the
SU? Have you ever been refused
ice cubes at a party because you
-knew not the reason for the bowl
ing alley in the basement of Erb
.Memorial? Have you? Then read
on. Here for the first time is the
4-eal story behind this insidious
.^game.
Bowling for sport first appears
~^n recorded history as early as the
12th century, wdien William Vitz
>«tephens mentions in his “Survey
'of London” that "... on summer
■^•holidays certain youths took exer
cise, amongst other pastimes, in
‘jactus lapidum’ (throwing of
atones). To engage, the citizen
■ ^needs must go outside the city and
■center within closed walls.” I should
.-think so!
In 1240 the Bishop of VVorchester
• recognized the alleys as ‘‘scenes of
' vice and debauchery” and forbade
the clergy to attend the games.
Such Goings On
Edward III, in 1366, fearful that
bowling might replace archery as
the chief means of relaxation
among the troops, had Parliament
■ ■issue a memorandum condemning
bowling as one of the games “lead
ing to dishonesty and without use
or-profit.” And, from bad to worse,
Henry VTH, a fine one to talk
about anything, declared it an
illegal practice: “No one, by him
self, factor, deputy, servant, or
other person, shall, for his or theft-,
jgain, lucre or living, keep, have,
„4bold, occupy, exercise, or maintain,
any common house, alley, or pla(?e
©f bowling." He ordered his magis
trates to “search suspected tene
ments and make arrests.” Henry
VIII died of satiation.
Charles I was bowling at North
; Jbamptonshire when he was caught
©.nd beheaded.
Bowling was carried to America
the hold of the same ship that
(brought the common European
d«ouse mouse to these shores.
