The climax of the basketball season at the Oregon Agri cultural college will be reached next Tuesdayand Wednesday evenings when the University of Washington quintet meet the Beavers in the final conference series. The Washington five captured two games from, O. A. C. in Seattle, some time ago but the locals are de termined to score a victory here. The northerners Tiave a total of but fivs points ahead of the Beavers in the games already played. .Owing to this ex ceptionally close margin, Coach Stew art's men. believe that to defeat the Washlngtonlans is not an Impossible achievement - "". v " ' - While the supporters of the Orange are not looking forward to a basket ball championship, they are of the opinion that there is still a fighting chance. Ths University of Washington has four conference contests to - play in this state; two with the University of Ore gon and two with 0. A-'C. Should they lose both to the , Beavera and break even with tha Oregon tossers, O. A. C. wou)d then head the percentage column; Tha two Oregon Institutions hava been :: Burdick, forward. victorious in all of the conference contests with the exception of those played with ths U. of W. O. A. C. has scored a total - of 177 points In ths eight conference games played, while opponents have been credited with but The Beavers will be handicapped in tha coming games as a result of the loss of McFarland, who will be unable to play again this season on account of an injured knee received in one of the contests with Idaho. His place is being creditably filled by May who hss recovered from the slight Injury re ceived during tha northwest tour. Cap tain Cooper, little Burdlck and Cats are in good form and can .always be de pended upon.- Cooper's playing has been a' feature of practically every contest In which ha has participated this sea son and ths Beaver supporters sre ex pecting his ability in Bhootlng baskets to nose out at least one victory over the northern champions. Mattson : is also ' playing ' an excellent game at guard. Walker, Jordan and Darling, who are being used as substitutes, are showing up well, giving the college plenty of material with which to .fin lsh tha season. ; ; TBSght Three Oregon Champions Are ack; Good Freshman Ma terial to Fill In. Several news items of importance were given out by Judge W. . W. Mc Credle, of the Portland Baseball clubs, on his arrival home last night from Kalama, Wash., where he has been at tending court The most Important news announced was that Ned Pettlgrew would probably be sent back to the western league. The judge stated that ha has several good youngsters in line for the team and that with ther prospects of getting two ot three from Walter McCredla ha did not see any use In holding Pettlgrew,. who played but fair ball in the northwestern league last season." Pettlgrew was a fair hitter but his fielding was not up to the standard expected by tha judge. Judge McCredle dented the rumor that Jesse Stovall would be with the team again in 1912. Stovall's days as a mem ber of the 'Portland team are over. He said that while in Kalama he signed a bush league third baseman. who : had been highly recommended to him. The youngster's name la Davolt and he is a brother to a former north west college sprinter. He will start mailing tha. transporta tion to the Northwestern league players In the fore part of the coming week. Frank Eastleya contract was in the Dlle of letters received bv the ludse. Eastley has been "Wintering" InTitts- burg and should be in fins shape. Last season, the former Seal pitcher was in poor condition but ha writes and says he is In perfect health. , WILLIAMS ENTHUSIASTIC ON ROADSTER OUTLOOK Los Angeles. rCaL.' March .

The south, home of sunshine and breezes, has proved a failure for spring baseball training. Fit and ready" will not be the cry of managers when the season opens - a month hpnee. Everywhera the Jinx Pluvlus holds the fort Never since tha major leaguers Journeyed southward to condition themselves for ths hard campaign in tha north, baa such weath er been experienced.- Managers are ' in despair. From all baseball eampa comes the cry Viat with the training season half over, the men are not well started. Managers realise that indoor exercise Is not conducive to conditioning a play? er. Only hard, open air work can ac complish it Pitchers afraid to try out their arms; lack of 'snap In fielders' work; batting practice at . a standstill all these are attributed to the havoc created by ' the : rain at the various grounds. The players are also fretting over their inactivity. The easy life of the winter has shown the need , of hard work, and they are anxious for it not only to condition themselves, but also to work off the "Charley horses' and the stiffness and soreness that usually appear after ths first few hours of training. ,: Two weeks mors and the teams will start north. Managers are praying fr "Old Sol" to come out of hijing. A fortnight's work in sunshine will do much toward realizing every manager's hope of a team of well trained athletes to start the season. But the outlook tonight Is dubious.

Besides this plans are under way for a tournament who ma Muunuuisn uuu miu uue mm the alumnL , A review of tennis since its adoption as a (ollpglate sport shows that while Washington and Oregon are tied as to the number of'matches played; the for mer college has the advantage of one victory. Oregon has won one champion ship and tied one, while Washington has won two championships, with- the one jtie. Each school, however, has won sev en ana iosi seven msicnes. In 1908 Charles Mac SrioW and "Sioux" McKenzle, of Portland, represented Ore gon, and while the team lost in the doubles, Mao Snow was successful In annexing the singles championship. The following year tha Oregon team. composed of Mao Snow, Stlne and New- land, attended the conference meet in Portland, and. .whiles they... administered a decisive defeat to O. A. C. and Whit- worth, they lost both matches to Wash ington. In 1910 Washington again car ried away the honors. The tournament was played In Seattle, with Newland and Stlne representing Oregon. : In this meet Oregon won only two of the five matches played: Last year,, however, Stlne, New- land' and Gray, of Oregon, won four of tha five matches played.-These players are still in the university, and will be eligible tb compete for Oregon during the coming season. Reports from Wash ington have It that an . entirely new squad will have to be developed. How ever, several of the freshmen players are showing great promise. The score now stands: ' ". ;v. . Oregon.
