Wow About Video?
Something was responsible for the drop in attendance for
outhern California football games this fall and television Is
uspected of being the culprit. The czars of the Pacific Coast
conference, although they suspect video is responsible for the
falling off in cash receipts, apparently have not been able to
convince themselves that this is the case. That was one reason
for awaiting the NCAA conference deliberations scheduled for
January. It may take two or three more years to determine
Just what effect video will have on the attitude of the public
and the gate receipts. But one thing is certain, if the latest
communications contrivance is found to curtail the take-home
pay of the various schools, someone will have to make up the
difference. It will either be through advertising or a consid
erable piece of change from the concern that broadcasts the
particular event. Regardless of the final decision on the mat
ter, Oregon State has laid the groundwork for video in basket
ball by roughing in the preliminary steps in the new Gill
pavilion. ,
A Colossal Affair
Although we have no desire to become boresome about it,
we feel Oregon State's tremendous basketball plant Is worthy
of additional Information. As one of a party of scribes and
editors who enjoyed a personally conducted tour of the
building with Spec Keene in the role of guide, we 'had
ample opportunity to wander through the long corridors,
climb the long flights of steps leading to the far upper
reaches of the spectators' galleries and peek into dressing
and shower rooms as well as the many rooms that will
eventually evolve into offices for the athletic department.
The task ahead In completing the job is a long one but a
construction job of such magnitude is not an overnight
engineering assignment. It may be March before the work
crews are paid off for the last time.
Accommodations Super
They don't smell of linament as yet but w presume the dress
ing rooms, some of them sufficiently large to accommodate
a batallion of men, will get that

admission either, for, if necessary, 24 ticket selling stations can
be opened. Certainly a delightful improvement over the queue
system that prevailed during the regime of the old men's gym.
Cold Statistics
For those who like to revel in statistics: The pavilion is
the second largest suspended arch structure of Its type In
the V. t. The largest Is in Indianapolis. The highest part
of the roof is 83 feet above the floor; 1000 tons of struc
tural steel, 14,000 cubic yards of concrete and more than
100,000 pumice blocks in the building. The roof is insul
ated with $41,000 worth of acoustical tile (no echoes in
the structure). Illumination for the playing floor consist
of 48 1500-watt lamps, providing more than 90 watts for
each square foot of playing surface. Each light can be

Two northern division coast
conference basketball quintets
went up against intersectional
opponents last night. Both got

hard-driving Indiana five and
Washington State college was
dumped unceremoniusly by St.
John's 67-44 before 15,000 Madi

OSC's Beavers were in the
game right up until the final
moments, only to have the
Big 10 invaders break away
from a 58 58 deadlock with
three minutes remaining. Jack
Detour, reserve guard, led the
Beavers with 13 points.
The Hoosiers from the Big

champions were tied 12 times.
After an initial three goal In
diana lead, the Staters bounced
back for the first of four ties in
the opening half. The midwest
squad held a 29-28 halftime
edge and in the second half was
never more than three points in
front until the last three min

Then with the count tied

Stuteville went into the key

AFTER 70 YEARS
National Loop Sets New Records
New York, Dec. 20 VP) You'd
think that after doing; business
for more than 70 years, the Na
tional league would have fin
ished breaking records In whole
sale lots.
But just take a look at the
senior loop's miscellaneous
marks for the past season. Three
major league records were bro
ken, and four others tied, ac
cording to official records re
leased today.
Eight National league stand
ards were smashed and a half
dozen tied.
Ralph Kiner, Pittsburgh's
man with the big bat, was the
individual atandout. He did
something- the old sultan of
swat, Babe Ruth, couldn't ac
complish by leading his league
In home runs for the fourth
consecutive season. In two of
those years, 1947 and 1948,
he tied with Johnny Mize of
the New York Giants.
The other two major league
marks cracked were 936 home
runs for the league as a whole
and only 17 bases stolen by the
St. Louis Cardinals. That was
one in reverse.
Kiner, who poled 54 home
runs during the 1949 campaign,
also broke two of his own league
records and tied another. It was
the first time anyone hit 50 or
more homers on two occasions.
He hit 51 in 1947. He also punch-
out 16 round-trippers in one
month for the first time in his
tory in the circuit.
Stan (The Man) Muslal and
Red Schoendienst of the St.
Louis Cardinals, each broke a
pair of records. Musial paced
the league in base hits for
the fifth year and in triples
for his fourth season to set
new marks.
Schoendienst's records were
in the fielding department. He
had the longest errorless streak
for a second-baseman, accepting
285 chances without a miscue
