about 7 o'clock Thursday morn

at, 5 p.m.
Whitman is expected to be at
full strength and Willamette near
ly so,' and they are believed to be
as evenly matched as two football
teams could possibly be. Whitman
was weakened in its last two
games by the incapacitation of
"Buddy" Applegate, its big star
for the last three seasons, who
was laid up with a broken hand.
Reports received here indicate
that with nearly two weeks' rest
since the College of Idaho game,
Applegate and any others who
were on the injured list Itfve re
covered, and the Missionaries will
be at full strength as they were
when they defeated Pacific.

league playing days ended, Carey
was dropped but when the in
surgents finally ousted "Uncle
Robby" after many yean the
club powers hired Max to tax e up
the managerial reins. And they
are lucky to land such a brainy
master of the national game.
Carey was born in Terre Haute,
Ind., Jan. 11, 1890. He matricu
lated at Concordia College, St.
Louis, to study for the ministry
but to the chagrin of his family
(his father waa a clergyman)
Max left to pursue professional
baseball, joining the South Bend
Central League club in 1909. He

found in Pete McCaffery during
the Albany game. Pete, who had
uat been one of the squad all
season, grew Interested in the
game of football about a week be
fore the Albany game and in that
contest was the life of the back
field. Time and again he reeled off
necessary yardage and on defense
proved to be a savage tackier. He
has devoted considerable time to
blocking this week and will be in
at the start of the game as Sugaf s
running mate.
Sogai Expected to
Repeat Performance
bugal will be in ton form
Thursday and w ill endeavor to
duplicate his showing of last year
when he led the Salem high of
fense. Against the Indians last
season, Sugai was the only man
who could gain much through
their tough defense.
Coach Hollis Huntington ex
pressed himself as pleased with
the drive shown by ' the forward
wall in the last contest. The Sa
lem high line will be as heavy as
Chemawa s.
The aerial attack may be a
thorn in the side of the locals.
Against a pass attack they have
not been extra good this season.
However in the last game they
showed considerable improvement
on general defense. The backtleld
men especially, were dropping the
ball carriers when they ventured
through the line.
The game will be called at 2
o'clock Thursday and a large
crowd is expected. The Indians
have been pointing for this game
and the locals are not planning to
be overconfident because of bear
stories, even though they may be
truea Gordon Wilson, Frank Ba
shor and Harold G. "Fod" Maison
will be the officials of the game.
Girl Hoopers to

Sophomore girls at the high
school next will begin practicing
basketball twice a week in prep

which "will be played within the
next three weeks. ' The Juniors and
seniors already are in condition
for the tournament but the un-
derclasswomen, never having
played the gam before, are In
need of the practice.
which latter detail he was later to
lead the National League for ten
seasons! Since his heyday, and
Ty Cobb's, base running had all
but become a lost art, largely be
cause of the home run ball, until
"Pepper" Martin did so much to re
vive it during the 1931 World
Series.
With a presumably "deader"
ball in vogue, Carey no doubt win

in base-stealing though to do so he
may have to equip Babe Herman,

Max has more than mere base

with eloquent ease, and is as

PENDLETON BOY
Scrap Ends in Second Round
But Lots of Action is
Packed Into Bout
A large crowd witnessed Tues
day night's boxing card at the ar
mory and saw plenty of action by
well-conditioned performers. John
ny Hanson of Portland knocked
out Brownie Buskirk of Pendleton
in the second of a scheduled 10
round main event.
This is the third time Hanson
has stopped him, and no doubt re
mained in the minds of the public
that the Portland lad far out
classes Buskirk. Body blows again
did the work for Hanson, who
brought them up at close range,
taking all tbe life out of his op
ponent. Buskirk scored the first point
by placing a solid right to the
body. However, Hanson stood back
and sparred until he was rested a
bit and then started the barrage of
body punches. At the close of the
first round Buskirk stumbled and
fell out of the ring, but was saved
by the bell.
The battle continued at a ter
rific rate in the second canto, but
Hanson soon had the edge and
floored Buskirk for the count of
nine. As soon as the Pendleton lad
regained his feet, Hanson planted
a second body punch and the fight
was over.
Both Ambrose Twins "
Lose by Decisions
Kid Nelson of Portland won a
decision over Buddy Ambrose In
a speedy six-round semi-windup.
Buddy let Nelson force the fight
most of the distance, but opened
up in the last round with a strong
offensive.
It seemed to be a tough night
for the Ambrose family, as Bobby
also lost a decision. Both lost to
good men, however, and put up
game battles. Shrimp McDonald of
Corvallis did the trick with Bobby
Ambrose, and only strong fighting
instict and plenty of gameness
kept Bobby on his feet in the final
round. Shrimp knocked Bobby
through the ropes for the count
of eight in the first round and in
the last one had him down for
counts of nine and three. Bobby
kept him fairly even in the second
and third rounds.
Spike Gorman, 152-pound Salem
fighter, won against odds In his
first fight before Salem fans, by
taking a close decision over Bill
Pole of Stayton, who weighed 156
and is a more experienced man.
' Poole had an early advantage
and punished Spike severely, but
the Salem fighter never backed up
once during the entire fight and
by the end of the bout had Poole
out-winded. Body blows were em
ployed by both during the match.
but Gorman gained an advantage
by putting in several punches to
the head.
Melvin Sorrell of Salem won a
technical knockout from Fred
Kittson of Salem, in a four-round
opener, doing the stunt In the first
round.
Three Quints
Are Tied for
Class Honors
The inter-class basketball ser
ies at Willamette university end
ed Tuesday in a three way tie
between the Freshman, sopho
mores and Juniors. The seniors
were defeated in all starts.
The Juniors, who pulled a 10
to 7 surprise party on the confi
dent freshman stars in a game
Monday, defeated the seniors 27
to 8 Tuesday. The freshmen fin
ally got to clicking in the second
half against the sophomores and
come from behind to win 32 to
22 in Tuesday's game.
Coach "Les" Sparks has a
bunch of individual stars, as us
ual, on his squal and it was not
until In the second half of their
third game that they showed any
flashes of team work. Leask
showed up particularly strong as
a guard and Kitchen began to get
the other men on .the team lo
cated.
The juniors are still chuckling
over their defeat of the freshmen
as they bragged the freshman
stock up to the sky, and then
grabbed an early lead on the un
suspecting babes and maintained
it throughout the entire contest
in Monday's big upset.

COMMENTS
Keyed up to fighting pitch by
the spontaneous display of "pep'
evidenced at Tuesday night s
Whip Whitman" banquet, the
Bearcats will head for waua
Walla tonight. Lest they think
there may be a monopoly on this
fighting business, we might men-
tion that about the tim the spe-
cial train pulls out here, at Walla
Walla the Missionaries will just
be departing from a "Wallop Wil
lamette" banquet which will un
doubtedly be. to them, equally
inspiring.
Nevertheless, the "Whip
Whitman" banquet wa quite a
jolly occasion. We understand
now why Howard Maple is so
much In demand as a public
speaker.
Anyway it's all over now but
the ride and the game. We've
said before that we believe this
year's Willamette team doesn t
get over confident but if any of
the bova feel it comlnr on. we
earnestly advise them to Paste

for the "raw deal" which they

FACULTY MEMBERS
LEAD SONGS. YELLS
Faculty members at Willamette
university led songs and yells at
the pep assembly held Tuesday at
chanel tlme.-
Presldent Doney suggested that
telegram be sent R. V. Bor
leske, for 17 years coach at Whit
man, congratulating him on the
splendid competition and athletic
worries he has furnished the
northwest conference and par
ticularly Willamette university
during that time.
The message will reach Bor-
leske Wednesday night at a ban
quet to be given In his honor.
The communication will be from
the Willamette students and fac
ulty.
Professor Zillman gave an
amusing and inspiring pep talk
to tbe students and finished by
leading tbe group in singing a
Willamette fight song. Other
songs and yells followed and
"Spec" Keene was persuaded to
lead one yell himself.
The pep assembly was part of
the sendoff being given to the
football' squad which departs to
night for Whitman. Singing In
the halls of Eaton between class
es' has been a contributing factor
all week to the pep shown, at the
Tuesday assembly.

A certain spirit of grimness
and determination pervaded in
the crowd at the Whip Whitman
banquet held by Willamette uni
versity students and faculty
members at the Presbyterian
church Tuesday night.
The team was given the posi
tion of honor and members of
the squad introduced. None of
the football men made any
speeches: all seemed to be sav-
ing their oratory for some future
time. However they appeared to
be the most determined body of
players seen here in a number of
years.
x get together dinner was tak
en care of as the first business
0f the moment. Songs and yells
were given spontaneously d urine
that time and immediately fol-
lowing the meal, the Delta Phi
trio sang two popular numbers.
Dean Erickson uV the team
and students that the faculty was
backing the team to the limit.
Bill Phillips represented the
downtown backers of Willamette
and assured the team that more
Salem people are behind the uni
versity and Its athletics than ever
in the past.
President Doney stated that he
was a strong backer of the team.
He sounded a warning note
that the team was going to meet

Howard Maple thanked the
press for' the cooperation and as
sistance given the team all fall.
Coach Keene looked over his
husky gang of players seated be
fore him and then said that If
they all played their best, that
they could not be beaten by
Whitman. Keene said that any
mistakes that he, the team or
the student body had made in the
I past would be atoned for in the
game with Whitman, providing
all put their shoulders to the
wheel.
H. E. Eakin was the last
i speaker on the program and
wished the team success on its
Invasion of Walla Walla. The af
fair was concluded with the com
plete group singing "There's an

L
OUT NOTHING TAKEN
Being the sort of chap who
wants to be as thankful as pos
sible, and tbe time of year being
that which ; calls out meditation
on all the things for which indi
viduals may be thankful, "Fros
ty" Olson, a popular florist of
the city, attempted an experi
ment Monday which if it worked
would give him a hep for which
to-be thankful.
Trusting the great kind heart
ed world, he calmly walked out
of his florist Bhop Monday night
leaving its : doors open and also
the safe. Sometime in the night
a local police officer was Jarred
out of his, ennui trois the un
eventful hours, by trying the
shop door and finding that it
welcomed him in.
Upon investigation it appeared
that no one had broken in;
"Frosty" had Bimply forgotten to
lock the door. . But Mr. Olson
says he didn't forget; he merely
was starting an annual custom,
a "leave-yonr-dpor-open" night
which will result in a sporting
bet with yourself that you will
have one : more thing to be
thankful for on Thanksgiving
day. This time he won.
