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. .

Boys Too Accurate :L
Salem b.Ign'a green but willing
basketball team showed that it
has potential strength but needs
a little more seasoning last night
when it was downed 31 to 20 by
an experienced alumni team.
Failure of the Vikings to shoot
was part of the reason for their
downfall; the other part being
the dead-eye accuracy of the
alumni led by John Kelley and
Wilson Seigmund. Kelley and
Seigmund each scored five field
goals. Seigmund missed only one
ot six shots he took at the basket,

Southern Methodist Plays; Delay
In MoscripV Return Chief Worry
ALO ALTO, Cal., Dec. 20. (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.

.Referee, Cecil Manning.
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.

Silver Foxes Win
In Season Opener
SILVERTON, Dec. 20. Sil
verton high school's basketeers,
playing their first game of the
season and their first under the
coaching of Roy Mueller, tonight
turned in a surprise victory over
Molalla high, last year champion
of the Willamette Interscholastic
league, 28 to 16.
Silverton's unexpectedly strong
defense caused the champions'
downfall. After the teams had
traded free throws and field goals
for a 3-3 tie, Sllverton forged
ahead and was headed only once.
8 to 7. From that point the Foxes
spurted and led at half time, 15
to 9. The score at the three-quarter
rest period was 21 to 13.
The next game for the Silver
Fores is with Woodburn, here,

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.'

Everet Marshall, a claimant to
the heavyweight wrestling title,
charged six sports promoters with
forming a "monopoly on wrestl
ing" in a suit he filed today ask
ing a million dollars damage.
One ot the promoters. Paul
Bowser of Boston, termed the salt
"JusT a publicity stunt."
Another, Tom Packs of St.
Louis, admitted there was "more
or less a gentleman s agreement
among the six promoters but de
nied the agreement constituted a
"wrestling monopoly."

rejected his offers to - meet the
recognized champion, Danno
O'Mahoney, whom he described in
the suit as "a second rate wrestl
er of mediocre calibre."
