"Bec&UM th wvrv.tl school of the
ttato have been in the practice of
paying little attention to eligibility
rule,' he declared There will be a
change In the system at the athletic
mating in January, wm hi predic
tion. '
Th Jocklaoh Incident, which Sat
urday caused the northwest confer
ence official to forfeit the Albany,
College of Idaho, and CoileRa of Pu
get Sound gamea, placed Willamette
University m fifth plaoa instead of
third. Coming out from . Indiana,
where he played for the Purdue
freshmen, Jocklsch enrolled at the
Salem school and played an out
standing game at tackle. He weighs
more than soo pounds and Is a valu
able man on any team, football or
baakttball. The Oerman boy drop
ped out of Willamette near the close
of the season and Hobson grabbed
him up and used him In the line
against Chlco Statu Normal Armis
tice day. v Larry Wolfe, whose Mon
mouth lineup includes several "vet
rana" of numberless years expetl
enc. objected to Jocklsch playing
against his eleven, so he adomed the
bench.
There tins been a need for
cloHfr observance of the eligi
bility rules In nonftnl school
root ball In Oregon, but as none
of the coaches wanted to take
the Initiative and start throw
ing stones, nothing was done,
at
Aahtand had several men on the
team this year who might be ruled
out of play, but so did Monmouth
and LeOrande normal, so a mutual
handa-off policy existed. Now tt
stems a cleanup la in the offing and
the day of the "tramp athlete," the
five-year man. and the "transfer eth
tete" are n taring in end.
t
Oregon's normal schools, like Cali
fornia's Junior colleges, act as ' feed
ers 1 to the University of Oregon and
Oregon State coltege. A good foot
ball or bajtketball player plays a year
at normal and la then eligible for
varsity competition. Most of the
stars am "dratted" by the bigger
schools. The normal coach's Job la
one long round of finding new play
ers to fill vacancies, hence the tend
ency to Ignore eligibility rules.
Now that Southern Oregon Normal
has defeated the University of Ore
gon basketball team, why not bring
Oregon State college's team down
here and play the game in Medford?

Final Returns in Nation-Wide
Poll Make Few Changes
Runner Tops Ruth for
Sixth Place in Rating
PUT SCHISSLER ON SPOT
IN SALARY CUT WRANGLE
By ALAN GOULD
Associated press Sports Editor
NEW YORK, Deo. 30. (AP) Addi
tional returns In the Associated
Press' nation-wide poll on the out
standing American athlete of 933
failed today to disturb the final ranking-order
of the list headed by Oene
Sarszen, winner of the American and
British open championships with
record-breaking golf.
The slightly revised figures, how
ever, tightened the contest for posi
tions in the top flight and broke a
sixth place tie In favor of Bill Carr,
Olympic 400-meter champion, over
the one and only Babe Ruth.
Final Banking Shown
Here's the final ranking of the
first ten In the contest, based upon
votes of sports writers and editors;
1 Ocne Harazen, golf S3.
' I. Ellsworth Vines, tennis 36.
I. Eddie Tolan, track 84.
4. Jim rule Foxx, baseball 83.
A. Jim Baust'h, decathlon 27.
6. Bill Carr, track 25.
7. Babe Buth, baseball 20.
8. Harry Newman, football 12
0. Lou Gehrig, baseball 8.
10. Tony Canzonert, boxing 8.
1 The country's experts cast a total
of 207 votes In the second annual
contest to decide the year's great
performer. The honor laat year, went
to Pspjr Martin, world series hero
of the St. Louis Cardinals.
Track Stars Popular
The voting disclosed the popular
ity of Olympic track atars. Three of
tfiem gained places In the first ten.
An odd contrast w-, that Eddie To
lan received 84 votes for his double
victory In the Olympic sprints,
whereas his dusky rival, Ralph Met
calfe of Marquette, got only one vote
In recognition of his sweep In the
national championship spring honors
In the Olympic tryouts, where he
beat Tolan at both 100 and 300 me
ters. Olln Dutra, professional golf cham
pion, had his total increased to five
votes In the late balloting, but the
rush to elect Sara sen left most of
the other golf talent out In the cold.
Few Footballers Named
Harry Newman, Michigan's all
America quarterback, waa the only
football star to get much attention.
Don Zimmerman of Tulane, all
Amerlcan back, got- two votes and
one of his running mates, Warren
He lien of Pittsburgh, received one. So
did Lawrence Ely of Nebraska, all
America, center.
Outside of Tony Osnsoneii, light
weight king, the professional boxers
were largely Ignored. Jack Sharkey,
heavyweight champion, and his lead
ing rivals, Max Bchmellng and Max
Schmellng and Max B&er, received
one vote each.

PORTLAND, Ore.. Dec. 20J(AP A Prank dlscuaalon between Chan
cellor W. J. Kerr and Coach Paul Schiaeler of Oregon State college re
garding the salary of the gridiron tutor will precede whatever action the
atate board of higher education will take towards slashing Schissler's
666-66 a month salary.
This was agreed by the board at i
the late session Monday after Schiss
ler's protect that bis salary had been
cut without his permission drew vig
orous expressions of disapproval from
the board.
Chancellor Kerr stated openly: "I
am greatly disappointed in his atti
tude." Bchlssters communication to the
board was brief. He enclosed a copy
of his contract with the note in
which he complained that hta wage
had been reduced from 6666.66 to
586 a month. The reduction waa
In keeping with the uniform reduc
tions given all faculty members. It
was assumed, board members and Dr.
Kerr said, that he would consent to
the cut as the others had.
'I think that In Coach Schlaaler
contract there must be some recip
rocal agreement to the effect that he
must perform his duties," Dr.. Kerr
explained. "Otherwise he could sign
the contract and receive his salary
without performing what he had been
paid for. We have some recourse."
This wss taken to mean that if
Schlssler Is to remain at the helm
at the present salary, results', and
good ones, must be had from the
state college team.
Schlseler now Is In the eaat and
further dlacusaloh of his status will
wait until his return.

Pile Up Lead in Finale
Giant Jones Stars
ASHLAND, Dec. 30 (Spl.) Uni
versity of Oregon basketball squad's
first invasion of the Rogue river re
gion proved a dismal failure here last
night, as ths Webfoots opened their
annual barnstorming tour by taking
a 43-3S spanking from Coach How
ard Kobson's Southern Oregon Nor
mal quintet. In a preliminary Ash
land high school defeated Jsckson
vllle high, 38 to 10.
With" Hobson's outfit playing es
sentially the same style of ball as
that used by Bill Relnhart, Oregon
mentor, the Sons held the Eugene
boys on even terms throughout the
first half and -than cams back, to
pile up an Imposing lesd ss the gsms
neared its closing moments. Willie
Jones, slx-foot-flvs Sons forward, led
the last half scoring spree and
emerged with high point honors, hav
ing 18 digits to his credit.
Teachers Carry Fignt.
Even with only two weeks' practice
and having a lineup without a single
lnttsrman, ths Ashland teachers whom
Hobson not so long ago characterized
"the greenest squad I have aver
seen," carried the fight to Oregon s
entry !n the Pacific coast confer
ence. The great height advantage
possessed by ths Sons mora thsn
m&de up for ths smoother floor play
of the visitors and forced the Web-
foot defensive men to foul repeatedly
In their attempts to keep Hobson's
giants from dropping In cripples.
The gsme. as a whole, was one oi
the most thrilling ever played here,
as both teams used variations of the
fast break and maintained a lightning
fast pace throughout.
After the Sons had held a one-
point lead at half time with ths
count standing. 30-16, It was not long
before the rangy Jones, with excel
lent support from Cliff McLean, Ward

sinking baskets In rapid succession
