The chance Is not great, however. Oregon's hopes are dependent on the work of the leaeue leading Washington Huskies, who need only three games out of their remaining six to cop the champ ionship. Oregon must also win her tli r eo remaining en me". Huskies Play O. S. C. Washington meets Oregon State Thursday and Friday in the Huskies' final home series. Oregon Slate has the same outside chance Oregon has to make history and will be 'fighting to take advantage. Chances are good that Washington will not get more than one game from the Benvers, nnd they will have to show plenty to get that. The champions play Idaho and Washington State two games each next week to wind up the season. If Washington should only find two victories this week and on the trip, and Oregon wins all her games. Ore gon and Washington wguld be tied for the conference leaders with 10 Tictories and six defeats, Oregon Strong Oregon has showed plenty of strength on the northern invasion. The Webfoots divided a series with Washington, took two straight from Idaho's, Vandals and Wednesday took Washington State Into ramp.

Despite Oregon State apparent superiority todnte, Bill Huyward, Oregon's vpteran track coach, ex pects his athletes to rise to great heights Saturday, when the schools meet here, and predicts a close meet. Oregon, Hayward admitted, has more potentialities than its showing against Washington last wcck wouio indicate. What Oregon needa is bard work, and they are getting it this wees. O. S. C. Has Sprinters Orezon State showed much strength in the sprints against Washington State Saturday. Elle, the Orange sonhomore. turned to some remark bln time in the 220-vard dash, which was covered in 21.6 seconds. His 10 flat in the century also assured bim first n nee. Schreiber and btarr have both been clocked at 10.1 this NPiiiion fn the 100 and Stnrr has covered the 220 in 22, while Bale has been just one-fifth of a second slower. These Wchfoot sprinters may make the going tough tor fJle, aithougn the Ornngman is favored to take both events. If Havward's lads can get a second and third in each, the nebfoot s outlook will not be so dim, 440 To Be Good Dolloff of Oregon and Kirk of Orezon State should put on a great racn in the quarter-mile. Dolloff has picked up speed tn practice, ana may upset the nrange quarter-miier. Moran. Oregon's nremier half miler, and Johnson, Oregon State's best, are expected to put on a thrill ing race. The best time for each this season has been 1 :Jj7. Cnptnin Ralph Hill is practicnlly n cinHi to take the mile race.

The hope of the United States rests on the shoulders of three minor children and a hoary old gentleman of 2M, and it is up to tnesn kids to keep this country m the running. The youthful Davis cup team U made up of Francis X. Shields, 20; Sidney B. Wood, Jr., '20; Cliff Sutter, J0, and Gregory Mnnein. 23. In na tional ranking. Shields is No. 2; Wood. No. 4: Sutter, No. 5 and Man gle. No. 0. The average age of the team is 20 3-4 years. The eyes of Eu gene, of course, will he on young Wood, for he attended the Univer sity of Oregon here last fall and man aged to get acquainted with a lot of people during his brief stay. As a boy his health was bud. and even yet his appearance is fragile, slpnder and del icate, but he i regarded as one of the master strategists of the game. Most of his play has been on grass courts, but he has been adapting his play swiftly to clay court competition, which Is a Davts Cup standard. Last year, Wood amazed the tennis world when he stopped Ellsworth Vines In the finals at Seabright after the Pasadena prodigy had blazed his way in sensational fashion through a field that Included Hunter and Shields. This was the making of Wood. While at Ore gon, he practiced with Stan Aim qulst on the U niversity courts and on the fast hardwood floor In McArthur court. He gave sev eral exhibitions here. After Canada, come th Argentin ians. They will arrive in Washington May 25 nnd practice for three days in the Chevy Chase courts before ty ing into the young Americans in the American interznne finals May 2S. 2'.i and 30. This is assuming, of course, that the gang from the United States trim Canada this week. The winner of the final round matches will pail for Europe early next month to meet the winner of the Europenn zone finals, July 17, 18 ami 10. The chal lenge round against France will be played at the Stade Roland Garros, at Auteuil, July 1M, 25 and 2b. Here's a letter from a wrestling Ian whodoes not agree with Tuesday's letter writer in the matter of Young Stecher's match with Walter '"Sneeze" Achiu here last Friday. The letter follows: The HIGH CLIMBER; TO MR. "DISGUSTED" I am very sorry that "M R. DISGUSTED" did not get to the "SLUGGING (by Mr. Stecher) MATCH" last Friday night In time to see the unsportsman like Mr. Stecher start slugging with the closed fist, at the very be ginning, and then keep It up, without any heed from the ref eree, until Mr. Sneeze could no longer stand the UNSPORTS MANLIKE manner of his oppo nent, and finally, In self defense, of his ACTUALLY CLEAN wrestling, fight back. It is beyond me, why a sport fan can consider two or three rabbit punches, worse than hold ing the opponent's hair with the left hand and deliberately hitting with the clinched RIGHT. And another thing, Mr. Sneeze has been the cleanest wrestler to wrestle In the local ring since YAQUI JOE, (and that does not bar OUR CHAMPION). And furthermore, THERE ARE JAPANESE BORN IN MONTREAL THAT CAN SPEAK NOTHING BUT FRENCH. SATISFIED. While we're on the subject of wrest lers, we'd like to see the Chinaman get onother chance at George "Wild cat" Pete's belt. Pete has been fairly good about defending his belt, nnd the rules f the championship do not force him to defend it oftener than once in three months, hut the Chinaman has proven his right, to wrestle again for the belt and th champion, if he is the right sort of a champion, should agree to it. I'ete says he'll wrestle the Oriental again, but that lie won't post the belt. The Chinaman was brought here at gre.it expense, and he is one of the nest men in tne division. A nnmner would like to see Achiu get another chance at the world's junior middle. weight championship, and certainly he has every right to that chance. As they say in the country weeklies, "How about it, PeteV" ST. L( LEAGUE ALTHOUGH E Kv GATM5 TALBOT, .Tr. (Associated Press Spurts Writer) n.i.- V I.

Brant ano. southern Oregon flash, in another of the events. Owen says that the ticket sale has heen unusunlly good for the first three dnys this week, partly due to the fact that so many good boys are signed fop one card, and partly due to the fact that the Pete-Kallis match is a continuation of a rather brutal affair which started In Salem last week and ended with Pete, the surf boarder, and Kallis going out of the ring together on their beads. Singh, the Hindu, is said to he one of the most caforful figures in the ring. He comes from Calcutta, India, and says he has ambitions of taking Va.jui Joe's place in the mtnds of Eugene wrestling fans.
