TIIS la a critical week In Pacific coast conference basketball circles. Stanford and California, tied for the conference leadership with six wins and one loss each for a percentage of .857, have the hardest games of their northern trip ahead of them. California plays University of Oregon at Eugene tonight and tomorrow night while Stanford Is playing University of Washington at Seattle. Oregon, with six wins and two losses for a percentage of .750, is only half a game behind the leadera If she can defeat California in both games and Washington is able to break even with Stanford, Oregon and Stanford then would be tied with eight Wins and two losses each, their percentage being .SOU. Of course, Washington might even defeat Stanford twice, though thai Is too much to hope for at the rate the Cardinal five is traveling. If Wash ington only breaks even It will help a lot. But to have a chance at the chamnionshio It is absolutely essen tial for Oregon to win both games from California. That's a tough lob to tackle, but California isn't invincible and the Oregon team right now is at the top of its drive. Coach Rutherford of Oregon Agricultural college, whose boys have layed both teams, thinks Oregon the stronger of the two, so the Oregoniana have at leaot a fight ing chance to cop their needed two in a row. After the game with California, Oregon has four more games to play, all of them at Eugene, to wind up her schedule. She meets University of Washington February 25 and 26 and Washington State college February 2S and March 1. In this respect the California col leges have the better of the schedule. for after their games this week their only remaining conference games are against each other. California won their first set-to last Saturday night and Stanford will fight like a gang at tigera to even it up. Oregon is the only northwestern varsity with a chance at the cham pionship, for Washington, the next closest, has woi. only four games and lost the eame number.

He made It clear that so far as Princeton is con cerned it never will accept an invita tion to coin west. Roper waa particularly strong In his condemnation . of the Pasadena game and said there would be none of It for him or Princeton. He de clared th.at Princeton already had been sounded out as to coming to the coast next New Tear's day. but that his answer waa "Not for Princeton." Tha Nassau coach talked about "the he has a lot of stuff but that he Is unlucky. That's not unusual in base ball. Sometimes a man with every thing actually has to quit the game because it seems that the luck always breaks against him. Perhaps after Tipple got out here to the coast his luck would change, but alt and the Judge are going to think It over carefully before they send along bis transportation. "If you belonged to a baseball team that had won a world's championship, and you flattered yourself- that you were rather an Important cog in that machine, and you were sitting back pretty well satisfied with yourself, feeling sure that your work would be appreciated by a substantial rise in pay and then you got notice that you bad been shipped to the minors wouldn't that J-A-R you, writes Ed Hughes in the San Frunclsco -Chron icle. That's what happened to Maury Rath, the intielder, who now belongs to .the Seals. He was jarred to the heels when Cincinnati let him go, so it is no wonder he is a bit slow about signing with the Seals. As a mat ter of fact, the Seals are offering Rath more money thsn he got at Cin cinnati, but he was so surprised when the other 15 clubs in the major leagues let him go by the waiver route that he can hardly realize It yet. However, he will sign with the Seals pretty soon, for there is no other place for him to go. He still thinks he is a big league player and a lot of baseball writers on the two major league circuits put in with him, but he is out of the majors now so he must make the best of it Rath hit better last year than ha did the year before when he helped Cincinnati win the National league pennant and the world's champion ship, so he naturally thought he was all bet in that town. But Cincinnati turned him over to Seattle in part payment for Sammy Bonne and Se attle sold him to San Francisco for a nice piece of change. Sam Ross, the roving southpaw. surprised the Judge out of half a year's growth yesterday when he suddenly stepped into hot-stove league headquarters in the Gasco responsible for the disbandment of Coach Butler's squad. Several dates had been set for meets with the university, but for various reasons the Eugene institution called the contests off a day or two before the time set. As O. A. C. and Oregon are the only cclleges that have been meeting in boxing It was Impossible to arrange other contests this season. The college team was composed of Claude W. Crocker, 115-pound class Lyman Cooley, 135; Hubert Hall, 12 pounds, and Clem Sharkey, 15 pounds. The team had gotten In goo shape on two different occasions fo tha Oregon meet, but each time wa disappointed, due to the failure of the university to mo-.t as agreed. VARSITY BASEBALL WILL START $00! Sh Huntington Expected Be Chosen Coach. to LAST SEASON MEN BACK Gaps Made by Players Missing From Scliool May Be Tilled by Frosh of Last Year. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Feb. 17. (Special.) Baseball will start at tho university in about two weeks, according to Shy Huntington. Huntington probably will coach this sport again this year. The coach has not been officially selected, but in dications are that Huntington will be the choice. .? There are aeveral members of the last season's learn back In college as well as eome who played on the frosh team last year. Captain Bill Rein hart is in school and probably-wlll play in the fiold again. The othe two regular fielders of last year. Kill Steers and Carl Knudscn, will not be out for the team. Steers finished his school work last term and Knudsen probably will be out for track. Hcrni Lind will be missing from first, but Ralph "Railroad" Smith, who played that place on the fresh man team last year, probably wil fill that hole. Smith hits well and is a good all-around player. Vine Ja cobberger, Skeet Manerud and Jay Fox, who played the other infield places, are not in school, and these places are all open. Carl Liebe and Hubert Jacobberger are two infleld ers of the frosh team who may be used. Johnny Houston, a letter man In baseball two years ago, will also get a' good chance at his old place at hird. John Gamble, an ex-varsity outfielder, will be out. Art Berg and Jake Jacobson are wo pitchers of last year's varsity In school. Dick Shimm probably will be relief pitcher. Spike Leslie is back to catch. The weakest place on the team as looks now Is in a lack of hitters according to Huntington. Leslie hits well and Smith Is also good, but the ther men aro better fielders than bat wlelders. There also is need for relief catcher. If Huntington Is chosen to coach, wants to get the men out within wo weeks. He probably will devote wo nights a week to his fcrosh basketball men then and two to the baseball team. The Frosh are about hrough for this year, and he will be ble to spare the time. He also wants take one or two nights a week from baseball and use it with the football team. He plans to Institute pring training, and wants some time for this work. determine a championship team through a process of elimination in tha various Mic tions of the country. The Industrial association places a more liberal interpretation on the question-of who shall and who shall not compete than does the amateur athletic union. The main idea is to give recreation to all and if a man has been a professional in the past, that does not bar him so long as he is living up to the rules of the association. . 'A feature of the Industrial association Is the fact that the women and girls are participants as well as the men and are encouraged to form teams. They are quite as enthusiastic as their brothers. Through the payment of nominal dues, made by the Industrial plants Interested, it is possible to offer attractive prizes. It will be only a matter of time before there will be a number of perpetual trophies pre sented by heads of some of these plants tow championships. It la well established that the prospect of gaining a prize of some worth spurs athletes to better ef fort. There is nothing mercenary In this attitude. It is the same feeling that ac tuates the big game hunter. He takes pride in the heads of big game he has shot which adorn his study walls or the great bear rug which covers his floor.

He also admitted having developed an appe tite for rice a la mode, presumably meaning the mode In Japan. m m m Suds Sutherland was agreeably sur prised when he got his contract from Detroit the other day. The figures In the contract looked s good that Suds lost no time in signing It and putting it In the mall. Owner Navin of Detroit wrote Judge McCredle some time ago that he would do the right thing by Sutherland, who never has been a player of the holdout type.

H., Feb. 17. (Spe cial.) When Harry Kuehn of Port land, champion diver, performs here in the May swimming meet he will show before a crowd of 12,000 fans, Preparations are being made to seat that number. Swimming meets during the past few years have grown with regard to attendance until now the average meet without mainland stars draws anywhere from 8000 to 10,000 fans. Twelve thousand and more are ex pected to attend, not only because o the coming of mainland talent for the meet, but also because the 100-yard Hawaiian championship (-ace will be held at that meet, and in that race will be six of the world's fastest 6wimmers. This will Include Pua Kealoha, who recently In Australia established new world record of :52:1 for the century; Duke Kahanamoku, Olympic champion and world record-holder in tb,e 100 yards for ten years; W. W. Harris, who recently defeated the duke In a 100-yard tank race; Sam Kahanamoku, brother of Duke Ka hanamoku and rated as the "dark horse"; Warren Kealoha, present back-stroke champion, and Harold "Stubby" Kruger, former back-stroke champion. eastern team making a long Jaunt for an intersect lona.1 contest," and aald further: "The real strength of the Invading eleven can hardly be tested after a monotouous train ride. Therefore, I would not compare the Lrovess of eastern teams to that of elevens in the far west on Ohio State's defeat at Pasadena few leara day. One thing is becoming reasonably certain. That is that the next really big east vs. west football game must be played in the east At that, it is only fair that a coast eleven should journey east for once to show what it cun do. Now that Pitcher Dan Tipple has accepted terma with the Beavera. Walt McCredle isn't so sure that he wants him. Tipple was a great pitcher throe or four years ago, but his record for the last season or two Isn't reassuring. Last aeaiton with Syrace he won otrly three games In tea, .ballplayers who know aim say , Portland lot again. Cobb is certain to give him a thorough tryout. What Is more in buds facor ia the fact that CoLb isn't looking for a marvel, aa he went after Suds on the basis of bia good control and heady pitching rather than because of the stuff he can put on the ball. What Detroit wants in Suds la a pitcher of the Jim Bagby type who usee his head and his aoiiiiy to put tne ball just where he wants it in place of blinding speed or aaxziing curves. O. A. C.
