Webfoots Prep
For Husky Set
UO's Hope to Turn
Tables at Eugene
UNIVERSITY 01! OREGON,
Jan. 25 (Special) Determined to
turn the tables on the Washington
Huskies In their Friday-Saturday
northern division basketball se
ries in McArthur court this week,
the University of Oregon Webfoots
have been hard at work daily on
both offense and defense maneu
vers against the Frosh. Coach John
Warren has been spending much
time tightening up the team's de
fense as a measure of cutting down
the high-scoring Huskies. He has
also advocated long and arduous
offensive work, as he figures it
will take many points to upset the
favored Washlngtons in the annual
series. "
Washington last week ran up 69
49 'and 66-51 victories over the
Oregon quint at Seattle. In those
two games Frank Guisness, Louis
Soriano, Russ Parthemer and La
Don Henson took turns at spark
ing the Huskies. So Warren has
reminded his charges that each
. . must be at his best if the Ducks
re to register an upset Should
the Webfoots lose both games this
week they will definitely be out
ef the northern division race.
Warren's starting five for the
Friday opener looms as Will Ur
ban and Paul Sowers at forwards,
the improving Jim Vranizan at
center and Mel Krause and Jack
Keller t guards. Keller pumped
In 16 points in the second Husky
fame at Seattle.

Short story: A staunch U of Oregon rooster this week buzzed us
to help him get tickets for the Washington-Oregon State series at
Corval lis, next week. When we asked him how come he wanted to
see the Huskies play the Beavers,
Instead of going to Eugene this
week to watch 'em tangle with his
own Webfoot team, here's the an
swer we got: "Aw, I want to see
them beat Oregon, State Instead of
Oregon. That way I won't feel so
bad about it" . . . (The truth
alielp. us!) . . . Answer to Fred
Sterling, who didn't put a return
address on his letter: Ad Liska
' was with Portland 14 seasons, ap
": peered -in over 500 games, won
198 of them and lost 194. His age
Is given as 42 and from what
George Emigh tells us, Liska dlf
inltely will do some pitching for
the Senators ... Speaking of
' Emigh, he's landed the shortstop
' he was after. The newcomer is
Kick Muti, who played with both
Vallejo and Modesto of the Cal
State last season and wound up
with a .375. batting mark for the campaign. He comes very highly
recommended. All of which means that Bud Peterson is figured as
having a good chance of sticking with the Bevo varsity, or will be
traded or sold, Wayne Peterson already has signed his 1950 Solon
pact and will be back for second-sacking duties. Emigh also is In the
midst of dickering with Tacoma for the services of Outfielder Glenn
6 tetter and Southpaw Pitcher Ray Fortler. Stetter biffed .288 last
season and had 73 runs batted In. Fortler won 10, lost 16 and had an
' ERA of 6.50 per game ... Blond Bill Beard has been given the go
ahead by the Portlands so that he can make a deal for himself with
another club. But if the la tern-Jawed ex-Willametteer fails to do so,
he might be kept by the Bevos as their No. S catcher, with duties
mostly h the bull pen. . . . Northwest schools didn't do so well (again)
In the annual All-America and All-Coast football balloting, but rated
'. second to none as a group to provide rookies for 1150 professional
touchdownlng. No less than 21 northwest players were drafted by the
pros: Ken Carpenter, Ed Carmlchael, Tom DeSylvia. Dick Gray, Bob
. Sanders, Sam Nevills, Woodley Lewis, Ted Meland, Darrell Robin
son, Steve Dotur, Fran Polsfoot, Don Paul, Jerry Houghton, Marv
Cross, Bob Gambold, Carl Killsgaard, Jerry DiehL George Bayer,
Chuck Olson, Warren Wood and Tom Winbigler. The only Northwest
conference grab is Wlnbiglfr, of course, and the College of Idaho
galloper goes to the Cleveland Browns, along with OSC's Dick Gray
and Carpenter and Oregon's Ted Meland . . . .
Yet, Vlco Still Listed On Detroit Ball Club
In answer to a number ef queries, now that baseball's slgn
nps and holdouts are once more prominent, George Vie still la
listed en the Detroit Tigers roster, right alone with the ether first
sackers Dick KryhoskL Don Kolloway and Paul Campbell. When
the Tires speared Kryhoskl from the Yankees, It was figured that
such would amount to the demise ef the popular 1946 Senators
"splits" expert who managed to hit only .190 last season. But he's
still on. the club, and If he stays we'd like nothing better than to
see him bust loose with a spring training effort that will give him
the regular first turn Job ...
Interesting note: One Joe Harris, advertised as "expert" for the
S porting News' basketball pregame selections, says Oregon State will
- beat Washington by eight points in their first game Friday, February
S, at Corvallis, and by two points the following Saturday night. He
picks Oregon over Idaho by six. both nights at Moscow the same
''weekend... .. ' y.
Vlk Dottet Note Doing It the Smart Way
At long last the generalissimos ef Salem Viking varsity foot-
ball schedule-making have done It the smart way. Not that their
previous policy of play-'em-all-blg-or-small wasn't to be admired.
The Vlk bosses have always felt as If they should take en any
prep school's touchdown troupe. Up to now, that Is. What with all
wins and losses compiled by a team over the season tossing a
definite reflection on the voting that determines district represen
tation. It Is only natural that 8alem, aspiring to enter the. state
. playoffs for the first time, should commence more competition
with district teams and drop some of the out-of -district toughles.

all three circuits once again lean

of course. It's been so bad sine

He Wanted to Help Griffith
Sportsman 'Stood Up'
In Deal for Nat Stock
WASHINGTON. Jan. 25-4PV-Wash B. Williams. local arvrtmn
and beer distributor, said tonight he was "mystified and bewildered''
that his offer to pay $330,000 cash for 40 per cent of the stock in th
Washington Senators Baseball club had been rejected.
Williams loia a reporter a xirm
of Philadelphia lawyers approach
ed him Indirectly last Saturday
and said they were "interested" in
disposing of the stock which was
purchased about a month ago by
John J. Jachym of Jamestown, N.Y.
I told them Monday we were
ready to go and would have the
cash in 48 hours," Williams said.
We had tickets to go to Philadel
phia today, but at th last minute
they called it off.
"I was dumbfounded. Thev soli
cited me, and 1 had the cash all
ready."
Williams said h was chiefly In
terested In buying Jachym's stock
because of his friendship for Clark
Griffith, president of th Washing
ton Senators. f
"X knew there was a little dis
cord between Griff and Jachym,
and X thought if I got in there
would be harmony ,M Williams said.
