\ ictor O, Schmidt, commissioner of the Pacific Coast (.Conference, .was at McArthur court Tuesday, on his annual spring tour of the conference, hast fall on his visit here, he had outlined to us the desires .of the conference in regard to de-emphasis of college athletics which were later presented at the January meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic Association in Cincinnati, < >hio. Step in Right Direction ( ommeutiiig on the degree of success met by these proposals, Schmidt said: “The conference did not adopt our proposed resolution to instruct the rules committee to amend the free substitution rule .so as to outlaw free substitution (the platoon system). Also, they did nat accept our amendment to abolish spring football practice completely. But they did make one significant advance in that spring football sessions are now limited to 20 £pr all ... (members of the NCAA) ... We feel that this will do much to put competition on a more equal basis, for this conference, at least. Foremerly, many conferences allowed more dr less Htolimited spring drills, while we of the PCC enforced a rule limiting th enumber of sessions to 30.” “Since almost all our intersect ion;d competition is with schools w hich are NCAA members, this w ill put all our opjxments on an equal . had-, w ith ns in regard to practice time spent out of season." Spring basket 1 mil practice received the same 20-drill limitation by the NCAA, but here again the more stringent PCC has completely aboli-hed it. Kxplaining this tendency of the PCC to pioneer reduc tion iu spring practice sessions for all sports, Schmidt said: Spring Practice Develops Pressure "(inr feeling is that indiscriminated spring sessions are hound to hro>mc too'competitive and tend to develop unhealthy pressure upon t 1m.- coarhgs at ft] athletes to keep up \s ith other schools.” "We do think," he continued," that regulated and reasonable spring drills are heneficial." How well, he was asked, is the new two-shots-for-a-defensive-foul rule working in Northern Division basketball comjxttition this season ? "I haven’t gotten the opportunity to check with all the coaches as yet, but I do know that the foul total for the North ern Division is definitely lower, and that was the express pur pose of the rule." Schmidt said that basketball officiating should he uniform through out both the Northern and Southern I Jivisions of the conference, since there is an overall sujtervisor of officials, and many officials rotat< 1 ictween divisions. Several years ago, it was generally thought that Southern Division referees were most lenient in whistling down vio lations, especially in the backcourt, but Schmidt believes that any inequalities have been done away with. On Picking All-Star Teams In reference to referees, they certainly have a tough task. Hut another job which is almost as tough is that of picking all-star teams: especially mWi»u»ural all-star teams at the University of Oregon. There was a letter in Wednesday's Kmcrald from Hill Owen, which intimated that the.pickers of the all-star team were either utterly in eonipetent, or prejudiced, or blind, or something. The letter further stated it was difficult for “those interested in the facts on campus sports” to get any "factual information by reading articles printed throughout the season” in what was later playfully referred to as the “Daily (UGH) Emerald.” It was also suggested in closing that (you should excuse the ex pressiou) “activity points” he awarded to “more observant and com petent journalists in the future.” Well, there is one thing we should like to suggest. If any readers of the “Daily (UGI1) Kmcrald" wish to offer their serv ices toward the achievement of a higher standard of journal istic objectivity and accuracy, we will receive them with open arms. Especially if they don’t split infinities, whatever that is, or get their tenses mixed up. Come on down and help us on the “Daily (UGH) Emerald,” Mr. Owen. We’ve got activity points for you galore.

Hawes, Duck Guard, Earns Starting Berth By Martin Meadows A latc-season spurt has moved sophomore Bob Hawes into strong contention for one of the starting positions on Coach Bill Borcher's Oregon basketball team. Hawes, a six-footer who hails from Bend, Oregon, has improved to the extent that he is currently the fourth highest Duck point maker in Northern Division play, despite the fact that he did not see mueh action in pre-season competition. At Bend high school, Bob, an education major, had four years of varsity experience on the hoop squad. During his junior and sen ior years his team made the trip to the state tournament at Eu gene. It was during his junior year that Hawes was chosen to the sec ond string All-State team as Bend wound up third in the playoffs. Bob also was on the All-Big Six league group for two years, and in 1950 he tied Eugene's Dean Par sons for the conference scoring leadership. As a freshman Hawes was on the first string Yearling crew which swept to a record of 15 triumphs out of 16 games, includ-! ing 7 out of 8 from the OSC frosh. j Bob was third in the frosh scoring ! totals that season. Another sport which interests j Bob is swimming, and he is good enough to be a life guard at Bend I during the summer. He has also! won several diving meets around \ his home town. Bob comes from a large family, I which numbers four brothers and three sisters. Basketball talent seems to run in the family, for his older brother Darrell was recently selected to the first string Intra mural All-Star team. With two years of competition j remaining for him, Bob is one of the promising Webfoots per formers who add a hopeful tint to.Oregon's basketball future un der first year mentor Borcher. Today's \M Schedule 4 :00—French vs. Nestor 1:00—Theta Chi vs. ATO These meets will In* held in the unfinished area in the PE building. — Baseball Practice Held in PE Building Baseball practice has gotten un der way in the unfinished area of the P.E. building. Each day, at designated times, different players take their turns in the nets, which are erected to deflect balls during batting prac tice. Each player is allowed approxi mately 15 minutes of hitting in side the net. Bunting and form ire stressed, as each player bunts from three to five minutes before swinging. In this way, Coach Don Kirsch hopes to whip his regulars into good shape before the season starts in early March. Ball Comes Back FORT WORTH, Tex. (U.R) Gene Murray teed off at the Colonial Club course with a mighty stroke. The ball went 25 yards, hit a tree, and bounced back. Murray, with out moving from his tracks, reach edout and caught it in his hand. Sianals Mixed HUNTINGTON, W. Va. (U.R)—A mixup in signals between Bar boursville and Montgomery high schools ruined a scheduled basket ball ga mebetween the schools. The game wasn’t played. Montgomery had gone to Barboursville and vice versa. Most of the public land under the jurisdiction of the bureau of land management can be used at the same time for two or more uses, such as forestry and graz ing, or forestry, grazing, and wa tershed protection. BOB HAWES, a six-foot sopho more from Bend, Oregon, is one of the speedy guards employed by Coach Borcher in his fast breaking offense.
