STAR IN DOUBLE WIN AND RAISES "U" HOPES Oregon Puts on Finishing Tou ches for Aggie Contests Friday and Saturday Nights at Eugene and Figures New Spirit May Giva Forth Victory Ov er Strong Corvallis Rivals. UNIVERSITY OF OKh-LrON, Eugene, eb. 21. "Oregon spirit" is at fever heat two wins over the University of Washington five on the local floor has infused Oregon root ers with new life and vim for the invasion of the undefeated Ore gon Aggie five on Friday and Saturday nights. Never before has there been so much interest in basketball. Oregon's fans and varsity alike entered the Washington contests with the one thought of winning and win they did. Varsity ' rooters packed the stands and the band bellowed forth the strains of. "Mighty Oregon" to aid the lemon-yellow in. its first two wins in four years at the indoor game. Bill Hayward has uncovered a new star, as well as a new com bination that may keep the Aggis guessing. Ned Fowler, a Pen dleton sophomore, rose from a mediocre forward to a star, all in the short period of 48 hours. Fowlef scored seven field goals and 16 fowl throws for a total of 30 points in the two games. His fowl throwing was a revelation it saved the varsity in Monday Dario Resta to Race This Year In His Own Oar Chicago, r. 91-V. F.)

Dot Medley and Fowler are fixtures at the for ward positions, .although Hayward Jerked Medley in the final half of Tuesday night's engagement. Dow Wilson was easily the defensive star of both Washington games. He played a oool, heady g-ame at all times. Steers, at standing guard, kept Oregon's basket from being riddled with shots. Although varsity fans will con cede the Aggies the upper hand In the coming two game series, they are 1 certain that the Corvallis men will have to fight all the way to win. Hayward's men are Improving with every workout, and are gradually learning the fundamentals of the indoor game. Whether they can cope with Captain Ray's experienced tossers in offensive strength and defensive tactics is a matter of much conjecture to fandom. Ore gon will have the edge in being on their own floor, with the additional pur of the two Washington victo ries to urge them on. Walker's Freshmen Work Hard The preliminary games between the first year men of both InsUtu tlons are enlisting as much Interest among the rooters as the varsity contests. Since their two game set back nt the hands of the Aggie "rooks," Dean Walker's freshmen have shown a wonderful comeback, as evidenced by their "smashing 48 to 23 victory over the Chemawa Ttednklns last Saturday. Coach Walker has them working at top speed and Is out to win a double victory. Krans Jacobberger and nd Pumo will form the offensive strength at the forward positions, Starr will work In the center berth, and" Chap man and BrRndon will be used to defend the Oregon basket at the guard posts.

A Cincinnati sports writer it waa who gave Sullivan his chance to be come prominent. Before this man went to Boston and took a look at th touted Boston Strong Boy. Sul livan gav serious thought to be coming a ball player. H had re recelved an offer from th famous eld Cincinnati Red Stockings and waa just ready to accept. However, business took th sports editor of a Cincinnati newspaper to Boston, and after getting one look at th wonderful muscular develop ment of Sullivan he realised that her waa a man likely to become th puglllaUo sensation of the age. He Immediately signed Sullivan to a contract that called for hia appear ance In a match at Cincinnati. Sullivan didn't know who he was to meet, and neither did the promoter of the bout, but there was no dif ficulty about that Th agreement waa made and lived up to. Looks for Opponent Th sports editor went back to Cincinnati and began casting about for a suitable opponent for th Boa ton man. H had promised him only 9100 for the bout, which. In those days, was considered suffi cient remuneration for any fighter". Fighters were supposed to be box ing. In th main, to show how good they were, and not for wealth. Their pay was supposed to be enough to keep away hunger and to clothe them. Sullivan was getting rather Impa tient when one day "Prof." Joe Donaldson walked in the newspaper office and offered his services. He showed clippings from Chicago newspapers which showed that he had some standing as a boxer, so the match was on. Attracts Big Crowd Sullivan was given a lot of adver tising through this bout. The day It was decided he should go to Cincinnati to box. his discoverer began to exploit him as the coming pugillstlo champion, so when he showed up In Cincinnati he was an object of much curiosity. Crowds would gather about th Boston youngster on the street. It annoyed Sullivan some, but he finally came to regard It. even at that time in his life, as an appreciation due him. Even then he had some vague Idea that there wasn't a man alive who could whip him, and he acted ac cordingly. Sullivan waa an extremely broke young man when he landed In Cin cinnati. He never had taken part In a real boxing match. He had no overcoat, though the time was in winter, and his clothes were thread bare at spots. But--he was not a drinker. At that .time the rising boxer was just as temperate a young man as there was. He refused when asked In Cincinnati, to have a drink ef "something to warm him up." Opponent Refuses to Go Oa John X Sullivan wore his first fighters' trunks, his first fighters shoes, and engaged In his first big advertised bout when he stepped into the ring with Donaldson a man who had gathered a reputation around the country, and who waa expected, therefore, to make short work of hia opponent. , Sullivan refused to spoil the shine on bis pretty new shoes when he entered the ring, and disregarded requests to put rosin on them. It probably was a lucky thing for Donaldson that this was so, for, in their newness, the shoes skidded around the ring and enabled Don aldson to avoid the real crushers in Sullivan's repertoire of swings and straight punches. The bout went four rounds and the crowd begged for more, but Donaldson, aware of the class of the man he waa to meet, refused. Sullivan had smashed and tore at him until the man with a reputation was nearly denuded of It.' Sullivan was confident he could win decisively In a few more rounds. Finally, as the clamor Increased. Donaldson offered to meet Sullivan again, with a side bet of $500, the bout to go to a finish. Sullivan agreed to the terms, and the fight finally was held, with Don aldson succumbing in 10 rounds a badly beaten man. IS DOING IN B. B. Canadian Magnate Apparently Can't Get Heads or Tails . in League. Bob Brown of the Vancouver, B. C. club of the Pacific Coast International league Is another magnate who wants some action from President Blewett.

If sommers can withstand the punch ing of Mick King he ought to be ready to box any of the good middleweight ef the country.

Sommers opponent has not been picked for his match which will be held March 19. The 8ommers-Klng bout wUl be held March 6. ; "George Ingle, who will headline the boxing show here next week with Alex Trambitas, says that Al Sommers easily beat Chet Mclntyre In their recent bout at Seattle, although all that be got out of it was a draw. Ingle is not a good boxer, but a cal culating Judge of boxers; so what be says of the fight may be taken for some thing. George is m. structural steel worker and would ha vV gone to France with the Eighteenth engineers had he not been married, having been offered a good situation when the regiment was organized. George has a lot of time for reflection while standing on the end of a steel beam up In the air, waiting for another to be swung up. It is better reflection than that of a boxer, who spends bis tune nursing th Ivories at th end of a long stick every afternoon. There fore, George's Ideas may be classed as A-l. The first is that ; he won't hare much trouble with Trambitas, and the second that he can beat Joe Rivers any time be puts oa the gloves with the Mexican. "I'll bet my right arm I eaa beat Rivers.' says George, and ha has been Importuning the promoters to put him en wKa the Los Angel no. If Ingle gets by Trarablta as fee thinks fee wUU he and Rivers should make a good card In Portland, or In Seattle for that mat ter. George fought a draw with Johnny McCarthy, toot Rivers whaled McCarthy. ss George would have his work cut out , for him against the Mexican. mm mm manifestations of kitermsv diate and advanced pyorrhea F (Aatlsoptie) v Id In repairing these pyi .j ti I 1, niilS hmm it eOsctyBs slsee t9os eUelee a- vet4 enluwveir e vnm euueei prevention ef pyorrhea.

OST people foolishly seem to think they are going to get renewed health and strensrth from some stimulating medicine, secret nostrum or narcotic drug, said Dr. E. Satier, a Bos ton physician, who has studied widely. both in this country and in great Euro pean medical institutions, when, as a fact, real and true strength can only come from the food you eat. But peo ple often fall to Ret the strength out of their food because they haven't enouth Iron In their blood to enable it to change food into living matter. From their weakened, nervous condition they know something is wrong, but they can't tell what. If you are not strong or well, you owe it to yourself to make the following test: See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next take two five grain tablets of ordinary nuxated Iron three times pei day after meals for two weeks. Then test your strength again and see foi 3-ourself how much you have gained. I have seen dosens of nervous, run down people, who were ailing all the while, most astonishingly Increase their strength and endurance simply by tak ing iron in the proper form and this after, they had in some cases been doc toring for months without-obtaining any benefit. But don't take the old forms of reduced iron, iron acetate or tincture of iron simply to save a few cents. Tou must take iron in a form that can be easily absorbed and assimilated, like nuxated iron, if you want it to do you any good, otherwise It may prove worse than useless. Many an athlete or prize fighter has won the day simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance which comes from having Dlenty of Iron in the blood, while man another has gone down to inglorious de feat simply for the lack of iron.

The work of this war is being carried on largely by those who never before have been in public office "or in public work. Men who have been too busy, too engrossed with their own tasks, are leaving their work to others and giving their time and ability to the cause which is ours, yours, everybody's. It is a time when politics in the ordinary sense must not be considered. It calls for all the ability that can be mustered. Oregon to be a successful part in this unit plan for the de fense of Democracy, must likewise place the thought of the times before everything. Mr. L. J. Simpson was urged to become a candidate by his many friends in every part of the state, because of his business record, his understanding and knowledge of Oregon's re sources, industries and needs; because of his public-spirited-ness, which of recent years has led him to tasks which have been more important to him than his own affairs. L. J. Simpson is clearly the man who can give Oregon the administration necessary to this plan of National Efficiency. His campaign will he directed straight to you as voters, as individuals who do your own thinking. We are firmly convinced that you will not allow politics to influence your decision, and that you will vote for the man who is best fit to help the people of Oregon, develop the state's vast resources, and to prepare for, and participate in, the great reconstruction that is to follow. We believe you will weigh issues more closely than ever before, and that L. J. Simpson will be your choice. What You Can Do First Talk over his candidacy with your friends. Second If you believe that L. J. Simpson is worthy of your support write a letter to this com mittee. Suggest how this cause may be advanced. We, in turn, will tell you how you can help.
