From the sidelines the game was
slow and uninteresting, especially the
second half. At no time was Oregon
'able to advance the ball past the op

team could connect with the basket

Whether or Not to Let Teams With

Matter to Be Settled Soon.
If teams In the shipbuilder's leaguer
up and down the coast having sus
pended players of organized baseball
on their roster figure they can play
their games in the parka of organized
baseball when the home team is on the
road they are likely to run into a snag.
' A, number of players of both the Pa
cific Coast and Pacific Coast, Inter
national Leagues have declare their
intentions of not playing professional
baseball this coming season', but in
stead will work in the shipyards and
play with teams in the shipbuilders
league. i
While there is no rule against sus
pended players playing with independ
ent teams against Independent teams
in the parks of organized baseball it is
being whispered about that the Pacific
Coast League and Pacific Coast Inter

such a rule. ?
There is a rule In organized base
ball that no player suspended or dls
qualified by one club may play with or
against any other club in organized
baseball, or play with an independent
team against a club of organized base
ball. . - ..
While there has been only a few
players who have announced their in
tention of quitting professional base
ball to loin the shipyards' league it
will be Interesting to watch the move
ments of the two leagues of organized
baseball on the Coast.
Nothing wili be done, it is thought.
until it is known how many players
actually refuse to report when the
Pacific Coast League or Pacific Coast
International League season starts.
The teams of the Portland Ship
builders' League have not decided
where they will play their league
fames when the Portland team Is on
the road. It might be that they will
not want the . use of the Vaughn-

asked yesterday what he knew of the
rumor and said as far as he knew
there was nothing to it and it made
no difference with him. No action will
be taken by Judge McCredie to place a
ban on suspended players from playing
with the shipbuilders' League on his
park unless the Pacific Coast Inter
national League acts as a body. .
Judge McCredie yesterday mailed a
contract to Cliff Lee at his home in
Denver. According to the "Rule Book'
contract must be mailed to Lee be

of conforming to the laws of the Na

Lee a contract.

Campus Much Interested In Games to
Be Played on Oregon Floor To
night and Tomorrow.
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene,
Feb. 22. (Special) Four basketball
games between the varsity, and the
Oregon Aggie quintets are occupying
the attention of fandora in the univer
sity, and not even war and the strenu
ous military programme which the men
students have to face daily can squelch
entirely the loop game talk. More real
interest Is being centered on the games
of tonight and tomorrow night than
upon almost any sport event on the
university calendar.
"You're next. Aggies," and "Go get
'em, Oregon," are the campus slogans
which are stirring up the "old fight" In
Coach Hayward' a warriors. There is
no strong showing of confidence that
Oregon will be able to down the Aggie
first team In any quarter, but chances
of the freshmen handing two defeats
to the visiting "rooks" are considered
good. The 48-to-23 victory of Coach
Walker's first-year men over the Che
mawa five last week offers concrete
evidence of the marked improvement of
the Oregon babes over their form In the
Corvallis games with the Aggie in
fants three weeks ago.
It was an entirely rejuvenated var
sity team that chalked up two wins
over the University of Washington in
the games of Monday and Tuesday
nights, but it is not the kind of an ag
gregation which Coach Hayward would
be satisfied to send against the O. A. C.
five, which victories and comparative
scores indicate to be the strongest in
the conference.
Hayward has not given out his line
up for the opening game with the
orange and black tonight, but it is ex
pected that Medley and Lind will play
the positions which Morrison and Com
fort filled in the previous games with
O. A. C. .Medley, who was kept off the
floor in the early part of the season by
a .bad ankle, showed up to good advan

Jimmy Moscow. In meeting Ingle,
Trambitas will be going up against the
tiffest fistio proposition that he has
met with in his short and meteoric
career, but he is confident that he can
take the former San Francisco boxer's
measure and once more be rated as one
of the kingpin lightweights of the Pa-
ific Coast.

weight, worked out for his first time
n Portland yesterday afternoon and if

with a match with one of the best 158
pounders in the country.

Farrell is a big question,' but he seems
confident enough, so it is up to him to
do some tall battling on Wednesday

Mick King and Al Sommers and expects
to polish off Bradley in short order, i
