Morning; December 21, 1935 f 7-ft- Bearcats Stage Startling Upset,, Defeat Webfeet 29, to 21 Beavers Play Here Tonight Willamette Gets Jump on - Oregon, Runs Away . . in Last Half "Spee" Keene's Bearcat hoop ers surprised the home fane, sur prised "Spec" and surprised tfiem selves but most ot all surprised the Webfeet last night when they swooped into an early lead and maintained it, except for one brief period, to register a 29 to 21 uP set oyer the highly touted Uni versity of Oregon quint last night. Playing a swift-Passing, fast breaking game the Bearcats strode ffito the offensive fsom the open ing whistle and had Oregon at a 7 to 0 advantage before Coach Howard Ho taon's giants knew what was going on. Six minutes of the first half had passed into eternity before the Webfeet scor ed and started a desperate attempt to overtake the racing, Bearcats. Bill Anton, hard-playing Bear cat center, and lithe Harry Mash er were, the dead-eyes who gave Willamette Its early lead. Bis Sam Liebowitz potted the field goal that started the Web feet off after the Bearcats and quickly dropped In another one. From then until the end of the half it was touch and go with Manning and- Mosber keeping the Bearcats in the running while Liebowlt and Patterson, hulking Oregon center, brought the Web feet slowly up from the rear. Pat terson dropped in the field goal that tied the score at 11 to 11 with 13 minutes gone in the first half. Weaver sank a free throw to give Willamette a one point mar gin but Rourke dropped in a goal and Oregon was In the lead lor the first, last and only time in the ball game. A few seconds, later Anton unwound a one arm shot that found its way through" the net and the score read, Willam ette 14. Oregon 13. It stood that 'way at the half. Anton opened the second half with a Held goal and Erickson followed suit but freejthrows by I.iebowit aad Rourke kept the Webfeet trailing closely. ' it was Jerry Gastineau, leading the sec ndt Jaalf attack by scoring six .points, who dropped In two baa-. kets in a row to ave Willamette a fairly comfortable leatLwlih ten minutes left in the bairganie. An other by Weaver,anoher fresh man, put the Bearcats fine points in the van. the farthest -they got ' away front the Oregon team dur ing the game. Rourke and Scott both counted field goals in a. desperate Oregon attempt to -cut down the lead as the Webfeet literally rained balls on the basket and Oregon was only five points" behind . but Gas tlneau came to the rescue again, with a long, arching shot that sank cleanly through the hoop. : Charley Vewteeg. who played a bang-up -game, sank the final tally for Willamette with seconds left in the ball fm. Willamette showed -definitely that its last, f ignting style of play will make It heard from in bas ketball this year. Although a little rough in places the Bearcats turn ed in an excellent Performance, considering that it was only their second game of tie eaon. It was a big night tor the freshmen. An ton, freshman center who consist ently took the tip-off from Tatter son and Willie Jones and guarded like a whole regiment, led scoring with eight points. Jerry Gastineau, freshman forward, accounted Tor six points while Walt Weaver, third freshman to see action, got three. The Oregon team had difficulty throughout the game finding the range and were missing the bas ket by feet on many shots. Liebe witx led Oregon scoring with nine Doints. The Bearcats will meet the strong Oregon -State team, rorth rn division champions, on the Willamette floor at 8 o'clock to- ulirtat. . or... t1 FG FT TP ' T lrhnwllT f ....... . 3 3 9 W.

(AP) Stanford football players buoyed hopes of followers today with a fine exhibition of defensive tactics against plays expected to be directed asrainst them by Southern Methodist's Mus- Waggener Viking center turn- in the Bowl New year's day. Coach C. E. "Tiny" Thornhill outlined the plays charted during his recent scouting trip toO ed in a good game and Salstrom and Skopil worked . smoothly to gether at forward. Good team work was displayed by the Vik ings throughout. The game was unusually clean with only eight personal fouls called. Waggener led Viking scoring with six points.

TWO twirlers stood out above the crowd of National League mound mechanics last season, and as you may have guessed, they were -lanky Lon Wameke, Cub ace, and Jerome "Diizy" Dean, the "Card" from-St Louis. Warseke was absolutely the best pitcher in the major leagues darmg the last .part of the 1935 campaign, and by the time the World Series rolled around he was almost nn beatable. The way he handcuffed those explosive Detroit sluggers in his series starts was one of the high lights of the 1955 classic Whatever presti the Cubs man aged to salvage from the wrecking of their world's championship dream is due to the good right arm of Master Warneke. The long, lean Arkansas righthander just about pitched Charley Grimm's gang into the pennant during the Cubs' never-to-be-forgotten closing rush, for Lon had accounted for seven straight victories when the season ended. Warneke's world series garnet will go down in history listed amour the greatest pitching classics ever seen in series competition. A hero in a losing cause, Lon was the most dramatic figure among the 1935 moundsmen. The irrepressible Dizzy Dean failed to attract as much attention this past season as he did when basking in the -glory of the 1934 world series spotlight, but the rec ords show that ewer the stretch of the whole 1935 campaign the cocky Dix was just About the best pitcher in the majors. Badly overworked, the elder Dean nevertheless chalked np 28 victories to top all big league hurlers in games won. CwrrtlM. Itll. Klat rwtam tnMmVt. htt.

Church Leaguers Play First Time South Salem Friends, Presby terian, and Calvary Baptist emereed victorious in the first Church league contests last night The Friends swamped Evangeli cal 37 to 10 -with P. Cammack scoring 18 points. Calvary Baptist and Presbyterian had much more competition, the former defeating TemDle Baptist 15 to 1Z. wnue the latter dropped Jason Lee 22 to 19. Texas and sent his charges into action. The results were gratify ing, apparently, as the Stanford boys seemingly had no difficulty in breaking up the S. M. U. plays. Attention was particularly di rected to pass and trick plays fa vored by the Mustangs. Only a few changes are plan ned in Stanford's offensive pro gram. Thornhill believes his plunging, ball controlling tactics are as sound as any employed by Southern Methodist. Some new ground and pass plays already have been worked into the Stan ford offense. Practice therefore will continue to stress defense until the kickoff at Pasadena. Continued absence of James 'Monk" Moscrip, star end, from the practice field was a distinct source of worry. Dr. Frits Roth, team physician, said "We will be thankful It Moscrip can play one quarter of hard football.'
