The i Unfleld Wildcats come Saturday i night, and the' University of Ore- torn Webfoots are scheduled for next Tuesday. Coach Keene's Vam h im proved with every game, and last Saturday against Columbia j rer veaied a close-checking: defense which kept the Cliff dwellers from a-single-' goal In the second hat. The percentage of baskets con verted was a bit low as Cardinal salasad several cripples. A feature of that game was the capable manner In which Flesher, guard, performed. Flesher is- play fng his third year on the squad ad has shown improvement each year. Cardinal's performance has largely in Keene's starting line been -creditable in every game played. Others who will figure n pa are Hank, DePoe. Ledbetter and Litchfield. ' ; ; The loss of Robert Ashby from the squad has been offset to an extent by the addition of Dwlght Adams, former Salem high star AAajns scored 21 points for the freshmen in a tilt agaimt Hill Military Academy Wednesday Bight and has earned a place on the varsity squad. .' t Ashby was forced to quit school on account of his work downtown. The Wildcats are bringing to Salem a stronger lineup than In any previous year. Coach Larry Wolfe has only two lettermen orfl his team, but despite this hand! 4 cap has built up a combination which has won five consecutive victories over Reed. Pacific col lege.

The game will be preceded by a game between the freshmen and a Port land high school. ' Great Interest is attaching tc the Oregon-WiHamette game Tues day evening. Salem high and the Oregon Frosh will play the pre liminary, and ope of the largest basketball crowd In history oi the sport in Salem is expected to turn out. In previous years Oregon has been doped to win by a wide margin, but not so now Willamette's showing against the Webfoots In two early season tilts, has encouraged the local fans to believe that the Bearcat! "may score an upset on the local floor. At any rate, it will be a torrid game.

LOSE TO SCRUBS, BEAT VARSITY LOGGERS RATED FASTEST QUINT BOARDMAN RECALLS FRANK LUKE By Victor D. Carlson - "It University of Washington uses its Tint string against us to night, we will "beat them, but If the second string men play us, I don't know " This, in effect, was what "Cac Hubbard, Puget Sound mentor. wrote to Coach "Spec" Keene at Willamette Just the day before his team played the- first game against the Huskies. A startling observation to make; one might even label It nonsensi cal. Yet, what happened? Washing ton played Its second and third string players throughout the game and the Loggers lost 31 to 20. What happened three days later? The Huskies, fearful o f the strength evidenced In the first clash, started the first string. And the Loggers smothered them under a 35 to 21 score with their fast breaking offensive. "Psychology." Coach Keene says. Puget Sound, playing In Wash ington's immense pavilion with thousands of Seattle fans cheering for the Huskies; and humbled at the fact that It merited opposition only of Washington's poorer play ers, lost. The Loggers, playing In their own gymnasium with the crowd behind them. Instilled with the be lief that "Washington wasn't much after all," got "hot." and won. It wasn't a fluke rictory. George Varnell. prominent Seattle snort crltis who officiated at the game, has this to say: "Any team would have a hard time beating Puget Sound." Roscoe Torrance, former assist ant graduate manager at Univer sity of Washington, rouchsafed this: "Puget Sound probably has the strongest team in the north west this season." And the remarkable fact is, that "Cac" Hubbard predicted his own defeat and his own Tictory. Whether the Loggers' strength is mythical or real will be an in teresting revelation next Wednes day and Thursday at Walla Walla when they meet the Missionaries. Both aggregations will exert ut most efforts for the games are conference games and the title may binge on their outcome.

Boardman was assistant foot ball coach at Phoenix, Arizona high school, when Luke was play ing brilliant football there. When Luke joined the aviation corps and went "over there," to do his bit by bringing down Ger man aces, Boardman was at the same army camp. Luke'a exploits, which Board man believes are highly colored by the author. Norman S. Hall, were many and varied. He attempted, while yet a school boy, to Jump from the top of the new high school building with a large wagon umbrella for a par achute, Without previous experience as a ring battler, he knocked out in one round. Battling Haney, a third rate gin-mill pugilist from San Francisco. He was expelled from school for shaving the heads of a number of freshmen, scions of prominent families, but later restored to good grace at the almost unani mous request of townspeople who wanted to see him play football. On borrowed money, with an other fellow, he opened a dance hall, and gave dancing lessons to ore-footed miners. ! He slammed his way for a touchdown In a game against Flagstaff after bis light arm hung uselessly from a broken collar bone. In France, he had a devil-may care attitude which led him on sundry occasions to absent him self from camp without leave Once he was on the verge of being court-martialed. ' - V, Had he been: discrete, he might have escaped untimely death. As it was, he was .forced down with his plane Inside the German lines when his gasoline supply became exhausted. Instead of surrendering at the Germans- approach, and go ing to rest in some prison camp until the war ended, he opened fire. with his pistol. Shots from German guns soon brought him down. home of Mrs. Irene St. Helens, captain of the drill team. Mrs. Norma Terwllllger and Mrs. Rach el Reeder assisted the hostess.

He estimated the hop at 400 miles. It waa the first time that the people ot South America- had an opportunity to greet the flier whose exploits In North America, Central America and Europe had thrilled them so often. Nor were the South Americans behind their brethren of the other continents In their enthusiasm for the Amer ican airman. Guns boomed, bands played and the spectators shouted In greeting. As the famous Spirit of St. Louis came into sight over the city at 1:45 p. m., the spectators broke into enthusiastic ' cbeera. Factory whistles and train whis tles shrieked and the sirens of the ships In the bay added to the cla mor which continued until he landed. Smiling, the American flier Sports . DoneBiwm By Norman E. Brown Jack Sharkey's recent gesture In posting or trying to post a forfeit of $2,600 as a "defy" for a match with Gene Tunney Is a pitiful thing. If Tex Rlckard or anyone else wants Sharkey for a battle with the champion two and a half grand will look sick alongside what Is laid on the line to bind the match. Sharkey's check Is traveling money for Gene and tip money for a promoter handling one of these modern heavyweight title battles. Johnny Buckley, Sharkey's manager. Is trying In vain to push Jack back on the pedestal of pop ularity and popular demand. But apparently Sharkey's day has come and gone.

Walking through I the great crowds of spectators, Colonel Lindbergh entered an automobile with the governor of the state of! Bolivar and several high public officers. Later he went to the; suburb of Isla de Manga where he was the guest of H. O. Ware, an American business man. The greatest crowds ever seen in the city gathered in and around the flying field.

Jim Mullen, Chicago promoter, feels that he Is "In" on the big gravy as a result bf a promise from Tunney and Billy Gibson that the champ won't sign for a fight under any other promoter's guidance until after Feb. 1, and will give Jim a chance to arrange a battle for the crown in Chicago. The Tunney camp probably won't make any definite moves be fore February 1 for ! the simple reason that Tex Rlckard isn't ready to talk business. If Tun ney fights for Mullen in Chicago, in June or any other time, it will be after Rlckard has tossed in the sponge. Write that down. If we can believe that Rogers Hosnsby was sold down the river by the Giants because he didn't show the proper deference for Judge Stoneham, principal owner of the New York Giants, then there is bound to be a general re formation period in baseball.
