the University of Oregon baseball
team put itself in
i position to either

crown.
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

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 has showed plenty of
strength on the northern invasion.

the fifth round of the British Ama
teur, was defeated today fn the quar
ter finals by Johnny DeForest, young
Pnglisli millionaire who learned his

DeForest's margin was two up and
one to play nnd served in part as a
vindication of American golt.
He spent most of last winter In the
United States taking lessons from
the leading professionals, including
Ijorton Smith, and picking up all the
tricks he could from American ama
teurs. William Tutloch, Glasgow business

Despite Oregon State apparent

Oregon, Hayward admitted, has
more potentialities than its showing

Orezon State showed much strength

On Thursday, the United States
Davit cup team was to tee off in
Montreal against the Canadian tennis
aces In a tournament that will decide
whether or not the Americans will
compete with Argentina for the rixht
to represent TSorth and Mouth Adit
ica in the Davis Cup matches in Eu
rope, this summer. 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,

Owen says that the ticket sale has

the fact that so many good boys are

week and ended with Pete, the surf

ring together on their beads.
