tige lost in -earlier . season skir
mishes when a ' great all-star
. If ven smothered' its western
rival, 20-0, today in the annual
Kast-West- charity game:
More tnan persons, as
sembled In the Municipal Bowl for
ihe benefit contest for' the Shrln
crs' crippled children's hospital,
.iiv the eastern stalwarts out
, lunge, out-maneuver and out
ings the western warriors
throughout four periods of bitter
battle.
The first victory for an eastern
tram since the classic was started
in lrt5. was chalked up.
An Eastern touchdown crafcfeed
over in the first few minutes of
play, and thereafter the visitor?
from the, sunrise side of the
Hockies had things their own way.
KaMerners. Work Smoothly
While Westerners were Mill
rtellng under the shock of the
first offenslyje; thfclr rivals, func
tioning like a well oiled machine
rushed over another .touchdown
in the second period; -beat them
back in the third quarter and fin
ished in the last freme with a
spurt that counted another touch
down. A brilliant backfleld combina
tion, featuring Holmer of Nrth
wwtern, Harpster of Carnegie
Tech, Howell of Nebraska and
"Weston, of Boston college, ran
riot through the Western defense
demoralizing it with an aerial
attack and crushing it on the
ground. Twelve first downs fol
lowed the efforts of the visitors
while the West was able to chalk
up but three.
YVeM'a Off cute Weak
The Western offense was so
lacking that on only three occa
sions were the Easterners called
upon to defend themselves in their
own territory. During the game,
the West got no nearer to Its riv
als' goal line, than the 40-yard
mark.
The first score came when the
East drove from its own 20-yard
line to the West's 22-yard mark
three passes accounting for the
gains. Holmer tossed them all.
one to Haycraft of Minnesota and
two to Howell. Plunges brought
the ball to the 10-yard line where
Kims, Stanford, Intercepted a pass,
giving the ball to the West, but
for - only one play.
Hoffman's kick was poor and
the East started another drive
from the SO-yard line, that ended
when Howell crashed through
tenter for two yards and a touch
down. Nowack, Illinois, place
kicked the try for point.
A C0-yard advance in the tec-
end period netted another touch-
" Line bucks brought the Eaet
trnera down to the five yard mark
where Howell once more punched
center "to land in scoring turf.
And the half ended. East 13;
""-est 0.
The third period saw the West-
i. the defense throughout, with
H'- East advancing to the 12
yard line soon after the kickoff
tut losing the ball on incomplet
ed passes. The quarter ended
with the East holding the ball on
the 9-yard line.
Checked momentarily in the
fourth quarter and losing the ball
twice after reaching within scor
ing distance, the Eastern squad
crashed over the final tally short
ly before the game ended.

association at the annual meeting
here. The tirle frays will take

district champions and Portland
will compete as in the past.
The. proposal to have two bas
ketball championships. Instead of
one, was voted down, although
there seemed to be much senti
ment in favor of the play which
would divide the high schools of
Oregon into "A" and "B" divi
sions for the purpose of deciding
basketball tltlists.
Committer Huriiee Idea
It was proposed that schools
with 160 students or fewer could
enter their teams for the "B"
championship or the "A" cham
pionship, but that schools hav
ing enrollments of more than ISO
could enter teams only In the "A"
championship.
While the amendment lost, a
committee was appointed to in.
vetlgate Its merits and report to
'he association at its next annual
meeting.
Austin E. Lard rath of Pendle
'on was re-elected member of the
board of control, of which he is
chairman. J. A. M!hler. Grants
Pass, probably will be named
chairman of the board of control
for the ensuing year. Hoy E.
Cannon, secretary-treasurer of
that association, is the third mem
ber of the board of control.
District Head Ticked
The board today named chair
men of nine high school districts
In the state as follows:
E. D. Towler. La Grande, dis
trict 1: J. M. Burgess, Heppner,
No. 2; G. W. Aaer. Bend. No. 3;
H. P. Jewett. Central Point. No.

R. IT. Moore, Eugene, No. 6; R.
W. Kirk. Oregon City, No. 7; F.
E. Fagan. McMinnvllJe. No. ;
John J. Jandrall. Seaside, No. 9.
There is no tenth district at

of Portland are eligible to be nam
ed as the tenth team at the tourney.

night will provide an Indication
of the Bearcats' strength as com
pared to that of their northern
rivals.
Particular interest attaches to
the Oregon State team's appear
ance here due to the fact that It
is coached by Amory "Slats" Gill,
former Salem high star, whose
rise in the coaching world ha?
been phenomenal.
Gill coached the Rooks at O. S.
C for two years, succeeding
"Cae" Hubbard, who went from
akere to C. P. S., and last summer
upon the resignation of Bob Ha
ger at the state college. Gill was
appointed to fill his place. While
playing at Salem high. Gill assist
ed the local school to win a state
championship, and he was later
an outstanding player at the Cor
vallis college. '
Gill announced at the openins
of the training season this yeai
that he would adopt a slightly
more aggressive style of play than
the "percentage system"' made fa
mous by Coach Hager.
Still more local interest is as
sured for the reason that three
former Salem high players are on
the O. S. C. squad; Frank Patter
son, John Draper and Bob Dra
per. Patterson has been playing
as a regular, and both of the
Drapers are likely to break into
the game here. Tbey are mem
bers of the squad of 13 which Gill
took on the trip north.
Other members of the Oregon
State squad who started on the
trip were Carl Aase. Jim Torson
and Harold Conklin, centers; Rod
Mallard. Tux Cordy and Gene
Duncan, forwards; Orrie Shree
Bud Wascher. Buck Grayson aud
Gene O'Bryan. guards. Of Ihe
Salemites on the squad. Patter
son and Bob Drager are forwards
and John Drager is a guard.
The Avillamette team loft u
hard fought game to the
mook Comets 2S to 26 Friday
night at Tillamook. The Comets
evidently had been "laying, for"
the university team, and in the
first half ran up an 18 to S lead.
only to see it dwindle before the
half was over to a three point mar
gin. 21 to lf. The Bearcats mad
up only one more point in the
second half.
Although making no alibis, the
Willamette players mentioned on
heir retujn' to Salem Saturday,
that they couldn't get used to the
Wllamook referee's idea of "per
sonal . contact," not being used to
roughing it in the style that
seemed customary,on the coast.
