THURSDAY. DECEMBER 21, 1933 THE CAPITAL JOURNAL. SALEM. OREGON WUAND SALEM QUINTS START BASKETBALL SEASON INELIGIBILITY ' HITS STANFORD FOOTBALL TEAM ON EVE OF BIG'gAME CRACK SQUAD ALUMNI WILL TEST YOUTHS Coach Rollls Huntington's high ftchool basketball squad, Just in the formative stage, appears to be In for some real experience Friday evening when It meets a crew of pot shots In the annual alumni contest. The affair will be a feature of the some coming celebration at the high school. Three members of last year's high school team will perform for Coach Huntington tomorrow evening. They are DeJardin, Engel and Winter- BY ALAN GOULD The ranking of the nation's lead ing college football teams for 1933, which can hardly be much affected by the outcome of the Rose Bowl game, nevertheless Is difficult enough. Prof. Dickinson of Illinois has a figure system which only the math ematically gifted can dispute. The professor has a very elaborate method, in some respects quite fair enough, but we seem to detect a slight optical enlargement In his view of the nearby Big Ten The Big Ten probably is the "toughest league," as Clark Daniel Bhaughnessy of Chicago described It, but we doubt If It is tough enough to take three of the first five places or even four of the first ten in a national ranking list. Nor has Mich igan the margin over its nearby or distant rivals, on the record, that the professor's final figures would indicate. TAKE YOUR CHOICE The professor lists Michigan, Ne braska, Minnesota, Pittsburgh, Ohio State, Southern California, Prince ton, Oregon, Army, Purdue and Stanford In that order. If our slant means anything, here's how we think the first ten stacks up: 1. Southern California (lost one, tied one) 2. Michigan (tied one) 3. Princeton (unbeaten and un tied) 4. Pittsburgh (lost one) 6. Nebraska (lost one) 6. Minnesota (tied four) 7. Stanford (lost one, tied one) 8. Army (lost one) 9. Columbia (lost one) 10. Oregon (lost one) rhis or any other order of rank ing Is difficult to analyze because 1933 furnished the most frequent form reversals we have known in ONLY Smoking Jackets Very smartest silks and flannels with contrasting trims beautifully tailored and one of the finest gifts for any , $6.95 man..

A fourth, Phil Brownell, has not sufficiently recovered from an attack of the flu to permit of his playing. Combined with this trio of experienced players, Coach Hunting ton will use a number of boys who have seen action but who have had little high school competition. This group will Include Salstrom, Devers, Peters, Roth, Burrell, Witzel, Gwynn, Sederstrom and Dyer. Just who will start the game for the old grads has not been determ ined. However, there are many for mer wearers of the red and black in the city who can be recruited. They include John Bone. Lome Kit chen, Mosher, Sachtler, Morley, San ford, Thomas, Jim Burrell and a number of others. Virtually all of these players have kept themselves in good condition by competing In various Independent leagues. ort Slants many years. Princeton alone of the major teams came through un scather, and the Tigers had close calls against three outfits they fig ured to lick easily Washington Ac Lee, Navy and Dartmouth. Every other team listed in the first ten either had at least one off-day or ran into opposition it simply could not handle. FINISHED STRONG Southern California's record looks the best to us for the reason the Trojans finished more impressive ly than any other outfit. The Tro jans In their last three games against Notre Dame, Georgia and Oregon rolled up 76 points while yielding none. Princeton, Pittsburgh, Nebraska and Columbia also finished in high gear. So did Stanford. Michigan was not as impressive in November as it was while walloping all oppo sition in the first half of the sea son. Ohio State lost only one game. No team stood out in the south as prominently as have 6ome Dixie aggregations of recent years. Duke faltered in the stretch and lost to Georgia Tech. Georgia skidded bad ly at tne finish. Alabama was tied by Mississippi early and lost a two point decision to Fordham but was undefeated in the south and perhaps tne best of tne Jot. Tuiane and Tennessee had good records. So did Biff Jones' Louisiana State team, which was unbeaten but tied by Centenary, Vanderbllt and Tu iane.

Turner, president of the Portland baseball club of the Pacific Coast league, announced here yesterday upon his return from the major lea gue meeting at Chicago, that he had become sole owner of the club through the purchase of the entire Interest of 882 shares held by John D .Shlbe of the Philadelphia Ath letics. Consummation of the deal, Turner said, means the Portland club will continue in fact and In name a home-owned club. Turner said he now owns all but 100 shares of the club stock. No "entangling al liances" with other major league clubs will be made, he declared. The appointment of Walter H. McCredle as manager of the team for 1934 reported sometime ago, was coniirmed by Turner. In addition to the players acquired by Portland and announced at the Chicago meetings, Turner said there will be added "at least two outfield ers, the name of one of whom will be a major surprise; three good pit chers, and a catcher of ability we are after another pennant."

His appearance In the game for St. Ignatius automatically made Norgard Ineligible this season under the three year varsity play rule of the Pacific Coast conference. Briefly the 23-year-old athlete's collegiate career is as follows: Registered at St. Ignatius col lege In August 1929; substituted in one game; withdrew from St. Ig natius and entered Menlo junior college where he played during the 1929 and 1930 seasons; entered Stanford and played there in 1931; dropped out in 1932 and returned to Stanford this year. Actually Norgard was not eligible to play this year. He did, however, and was one of the stars of the sea son. He caught the pass that beat California November 25 when Stan ford clinched a tie for the confer ence championship and received the invitation to represent the west In the rose bowl game. Professor William B. Owen, fac ulty athletic representative who handled the case for Stanford, ex pressed regrets over the matter. He pointed out the Ineligibility of Nor gard was not retroactive to the ex tent It would affect the games al ready played this year by Stan ford. Conference rules do not pro vide for such cases.

Coach Reinhart, following the lead of most coast schools, has turned to larger men. He will be able to place a team of six footers on the floor against Willamette. Showing flashes of real basketball, but at time displaying little knowl edge of the game, the Bearcats have alternately sent Coach Kcene's hop es upward and then down into the basement again. 8o Irregular, in fact has been the performance of his reg ulars and recruits that he does not venture a prediction as to the out come Friday evening.
