vision and two victories thin week
end could put the Webfoota In a
very good position la the pennant
chase.
Even though they played some
of their best ball of the season in
the WSC contests last week the
Oregon* are still quite concerned
over the chances of a sweep
against Tippy Dye' Washington
ians.
Huskies Improve
Last year the Huskies trimmed
the Ducks four straight times
and despite the fact that they are
a much weaker team this season
the Seattlites are not to be taken
lightly. Led by their ace center,
six foot seven Dean Parsons, the
Dyemen have beepi improving
t steadily all season long and in
their games with Oregon State
last weekend they demonstrated
that they are a completely differ
ent ball club from the one that
lost nine straight pre-conferenc
games.
In preparation for the all-impor
tant series Borcher has beep work
ing his team hard all week long,
especially on their fast break at
tack. In past years Oregon and
Washington have played fast mov
ing ball games and Borcher ex
pects this pair to be no exception.
The Ducks are in good shape,
physically, and apparently are
eager to stay on top ip\ the league
standings. Ankle injuries, which
have bothered both guard Ken
Wegner anti forward Jerry Ross
for the pa.st few weeks, seem to be
completely cured and against
Washington State both boys play
ed outstanding ball.
Oregon Favored
Oregon will go into the series
as the definite favorite but basket
ball fans can expect two very
close tussles if Dye turns in his
typical coaching masterpiece with
the Huskies. Dye always seems to
have his teams fired up at the
opportune moments.
Probable starters for the Ducks
in the Friday encounter will be
Kd Halberg and either Wegner or
Bob Stout at the forward spots;
Max Anderson at center; and Bar
ney Holland and either Wegner or
Howard Page at guards.
For the Huskies it will be Don
Tripp and Karl Voegtlin at the
forwards; Parsons at center; and
Jeriy Johnson and Doyle Perkins
in the backcourt.
Web foot s Swim
Next Saturday
University of Oregon’s swim
ming team under Coach John Bor
chardt continue their splashing
antics as they ready for their dual
meet with the Multnomah Ath
letic club here In Eugene, Janu
ary 30.
The swimming team* dropping
down to seven members, consists
of Harry Fuller, Henry Kaiura,
Phil Lewis, John English, Jerry
Froebe, Yogi Matsushima, amd Or
lando Mathias. Froebe and Mat
sushima are the only two up from
last years Frosh squad. The other
five, although lettermen last year,
lack the conference experience
that some of the past Oregon
teams have had. Coach Borchardt
exclaimed “This is a build-up year
for Oregon.”
In individual placement, Fuller,
Lewis and Mathias head in the
sprint evqnts; English and Kaiura
in the individual medley events;
English, converted from back
stroke to breast stroke, and Fuller
in the distance events. Although
eligibility and personal showing
have yet to prevail, these will be
, the probable events in which these
' swimmers will be seen in the com
ing meet. Heading the diving
squad are Ralph Karr and Bill
i Gass, both with no varsity experi
ence.
Phi Kappa Psi, SAE Roll
To Impressive IM Wins
Phi Kappa Tsi and Sigma Alpha
Epsilon scored impressive wins
in intramural basketball action
Thursday afternoon.
The Phi Psi five completely
smothered Phi Sigma Kappa, 40
10, while the SAE's rallied in the
second half to defeat Phi Kappa
Sigma, 25-17.
Led by Bob Hazel’s 19 point
output, Phi Kappa Psi took the
lead from the start and was never
headed in their march to victory.
Hon Miller’s four counters were
high for the losers.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon played a
very sloppy first half and was
trailing its opponent, 12-6, at half
time, but showed their high com
petitive spirit by coming back
strong in the last two quarters to
win going away.
In other Thursday games Delta
Upsilon bounced Delta Tau Delta,
22-17; Phi Delta Gamma won a
thriller from Lambda Chi, 29-28;
and Sigma Nu edged Sigma Phi
Epsilon, 17-16.
Dick McConnell led his DU team
mates in scoring with eight mark
ers and Allan Dale equalled his
output for the losing Delt five.
The Fijis had all kinds of trouble
in downing Lambda Chi but paced
by Bob Goodwin’s 11 points they
finally came out on the long end
of the score.
Substitute John Ramos came off
the bench, scored six points, and
was the leading light for his Sig
ma Nu team as they rolled in the
second half to win over the Sig
Eps by a narrow margin.

A CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY
“During the spring of ’52—my last year
at the University of Maryland—I was in
terviewed by a number of companies. I
was about to get my B.S. degree in
accounting.
“It seemed to me that there was a great
deal to be learned from the way I was
interviewed. Bell System interviewers
took their time about job offers. They
didn't rush me or themselves.
“I had two talks with the Bell inter
viewers and then was invited to meet and
talk with department heads. Not only
did they get a chance to look me over,
but I also had an opportunity to get a
closer look at their operation. I figured
if the Bell System was that careful in se
lecting its men, it is careful in other
things. The interview was the tip-off.
“That’s why I’m working here in Wash
ington, D. C., for one of the Bell Com
panies—The Chesapeake & Potomac
Telephone Company. My first job—after
general training—was supervising a bill
ing unit with 20 employees.
Since then I have assisted on internal
audits in all departments. I’ve helped with
^ special studies for management and have
become better acquainted with operations
of the entire company. Now I’m working
on the general books as an accounting
supervisor.
“That Bell System interview has cer
tainly meant a lot to me.”
