Page Eight ! THE REGISTER-GUARD,' EUGENE, OREGON H I6H CLIMBER By DICK STRITE FOUND Someone besides Tex Oliver who knows Oregon's new line coach, Vaughn Corley. Marvin P. Warlick, present man ager of the Eugene hospital, virt ually put Corley through school when the Eugene politico was bus iness manager of athletics and Vaughn was a student at Texas Tech. "Corley is u self-made man," Warlick says, "a lighting football er as I remember, a lad who was an Inspirational leader and one who battled harder with the more bumps and bruises handed out by the opposition." Oregon's new coach weighed only around 100 pounds when he played center for Texas Tech the best roving center ever developed by Coach K. Y. Krooland, according to Warlick. Kreolanri was assistant coach to Morrison at ,S. M. U. and undoubt edly Corley is well versed in the Vanderbill system of play as free land was considered the best tackle in Southern Conference history when he nla.vrd at Vanderbilt Warlick predicts Corley will be a hard worker and will be well liked by Oregon's grldders.

"Of course you're going to send all of your star football players to Oregon, aren't yoii Bill." the writer asked the heavyweight grid men tor. And then "Dig Hill" went into a song and dance about how diffi cult it is to interest good football players to come to Oregon or any of the northwest schools for fi nancial reasons.

NEW YORK, Feb. 21. fu.M Glenn Cunningham, mile special ist defeated last night at 1,000 yards, said today he would step out of his class again March 4 to meet Don Lash at two miles in the footracing feature of the indoor track season. Invincible at a mile, Cunning ham sought competition at 1,000 yards and found too much of it in Johnny Boriclan, middle-distance sensation of the year, in the main attraction of the Seton Hall games at Newark. Borican, lanky El bcron, N. ,1., negro, scored his eighth victory in 10 starts. Shades AAU Meet Thi' Cunningham-Lash meeting, a special feature of the I. C. 4-A. games at Madison Square. Garden, threatens to steal some of the spot light from the National A. A. U. in door championships at the Garden Saturday night. The race will send the holders of the world in door mile and two mile records against each other at a distance favoring Lash. It is a test that track fans have been talking about for several sea sons, but the promoters couldn't get Cunningham to sign for the longer haul. Frequently I.nsh has cut his specialty in half to try and give Cunningham a race, but so for has been unable to gain a vic tory. Flat Track Record Glenn holds the world indoor record at I .(ton yards, the distance at which he was outclassed by Borican last night. His flame scarred legs carried him to a 2:10.1 record in March, 1 035. With no special training for less than a mile, Glenn trailed Borican last night by five yards. The Jer sey negro broke the tape in 2 n record for the flat track of New ark armory. Ln-.h took a healing In his own two-mile baclyai'd fast night, but most observers believed he was experimenting with the last lap kick maneuver that enabled him to win the N. Y. A. C. title last week. Little Tommy Deckarri, former University of Indiana running mali' of La: h. popped into the lead with a half mile to go and Don's bell-lap sprint was not enough to close the huge gap. Don had a hard run on his hands to kpep Joe McCluskey, N. Y. A. ('. veteran, out of second place. Deckarri's tlhie of PJB.2 was more than six seconds slower than Lash's time in taking the N. Y. A.

Idaho, Feb. 21. P Those hard-driving Washington Huskies had a 43-35 victory over Idaho to their credit today the fifth straight win in their effort to write a story-book finish in the northern division, Pacific Coast Conference title race. All they have to do now is beat Idaho again tonight and take the two final games from Oregon at Seattle March 3 and 4 to snatch the title from the Webfoots. Captain George Ziegenfuss, guard, provided the scoring punch for Washington last night. He led Husky rallies in both periods, to pile up 18 points for individual honors. The game started slowly, with the lead changing several times, until Washington tied it at 11-11 and then indulged in a scoring sprint led by Zeigenfuss, Bill Mc Donald and Pat Dorsey that gave the Huskies a 22-12 half time lead. Ziegenfuss put down a Vandal uprising again in the second half. When Idaho started chopping away at the Washington lead, the Husky guard stepped in and caged lour baskets in a row. After that the Vandals Just hung on. Illness handicapped the Idaho learn. Its star guard, Merle Atkin son, was out of the game with flu, and Center Brendon Barrett had just recovered from the same ail ment. However, Barrett accumu lated 10 points in less than half a game to lead the Idaho scoring. Oregon, which has won 11 games and lost two, has another contest with Oregon State Friday before the Washington series. The Huskies now have .won ten and lost three.
