ASHLAND, Ore., Dec. 31. (Spl.)
After playing mediocre basketball and
winning only two out of three games
on Its raoeat northern trip. Howard
Hobson's Southern Oregon Normal live
tilt lta stride Friday night to light
through to a thrilling 35 to 33 victory
over the University of Oregon.
In winning over he Webfoota, the
Sons repeated the trouncing they
gnve Bill Relnhart's barnstorming
crew almost two weeks ago. Friday
night's fiercely contested tilt also
marked the end of a five-game win
ning streak Oregon had piled up at
the expense of California colleges.
Sons Trail at Hair.
After trailing Oregon, 18 to 16, at
half time the sons came back strong
to crack through the close-checking
Webfoot d'.fense and pile up a seven
point lead as the period was about
half over. Ward Howell, behemoth
ex-Ashland center, who emerged from
the battle high-point man with 15
markers, alternated with Willie Jones
in giving Hobson's men the advan
tage. The Sons' lead was short lived, how
ever, as Oregon settled down to its
usual polished floor game and pueo
up points from perfectly executed
block plays. Kerrnit Stevens, wlminu
tlve Webfoot scoring ace, who totaled
12 points for the game, had a chance
to tie up the score In the closing 30
seconds, as he broke Into the clear
ahead of his guard and cut for the
basket. He received a pass from Cap
Roberts, Oiegon's star center. Just
as he was In position for an easy
cripple, but he was traveling too
fast to handle the ball and It rolled
out of bounds.
For the remaining seconds the Son6
managed to keep possession until the
final gun assured victory.
As the second half started Rein
hart's men appeared to be on the way
to a decisive win as they blocked and
faked the Sons out of position with
a clever floor attack.
The reliving Oregon five reckoned
without the greater height and weight
of Hobson's club and It was only a
matter of a few mlnutea until the
Sons opened up their scoring drive,
keeping the ball over the heads of
the hard working Oregon guards.
Cliff McLean, Hobson's Indian for
ward, turned In an outstanding, floor
game, and set a pace so fast that
the other members of his team had
difficulty keeping up with him.

advance predictions by eking out a

By ALAN GOULD.
Some wild yarns come out of- the
cloakroom sessions where ball players,
coaches, old-timers, gather to ease
the strain on arches falling all over
the premises of the major league
baseball - meotlngs.
For Instance, there are the tall
tains featuring Ihc negro teams the
major legaueis meet occasionally on
barnstorming tQurs, particularly. It
seems, do these outfits prosper after
the sun goes down. Night baseball
Is their particular forte.
"There was one guy named Bell
on a negro team we met In St. Louis
& couple of years ago." Paul Wancr
suggested, , "who was the fastest
thing I ever saw In baseball clothes.
"He was on first base and the next
batter hit a single to center. This
fellow Bell by that time was rounding
second base and watching me as he
ran. He never stopped. I made s
motion, thinking to get him at third
As I started to throw I saw I vns
going to be too late. Er, I stopped.
But he didn't. He kept on for home
plat. By the time I could get the
ball away he had slid In there, and
was dusting himself off and walking
calmly away."
"That n!ht ball," said Waner, "Is
murderous business.
"Heinle Melne was pitching his
first game against a semi-pro team
for us on a barnstorming trip of St.
Louis after the season closed two
years ago.
"They told us that if you pitch
low, and throw nothing but curves,
the batters can't see the ball. Melne
tried that. The first ball he threw
hit the fence. The next went by his
head so fast, and so close, that he
walked right out of the ball game.
" 'I didn't come here to get killed,'
he said as he went home, and we
shoved m a new pitcher."
Otto Miller, Brooklyn coach who
warms up the pitchers, had a word
to offer.
"I was warming Van Mungo up
before a nlht exhibition game, and
If you don't know It. he's fast.
"The first two balls he threw miss
ed my head by inches and I never
saw them. I retired, resigned, quit.
I've got a family to protect."
Waner came back then with the
yarn that broke up the meeting.
"The first time I played center
field at night I was dazed.
"The first guy up swung hard. The
ball started up in the air. T smarted
back for the fence.
"Would you believe it, the thing
I was chasing that looked like
aspirin tablet floating through air
turned out to be a miller, one of
those nleht-fiylng moths."
"I chased It until I crashed Into
the fence. When I picked myself up
and looked back to the infield, there
was the ball Just dropping into the
Just w.hat Is the reason Pop War
ner is leaving his old stamping
grounds at Stanford, where he es
tablished an enviable record, to plow
more fertile fields in Philadelphia?
The Old Fox saw his palmiest days
a few years back at Stanford; since
then his teams have been on the
downgrade.
This year Washington, U. C. L. A.,
U. S. C. and Fordham beat the In
dians, bringing Pop's record to 13
losses, with 73 victories That's not
bad record for oy coach. Some
say Stanford's live straight losses to
U. S. C. are responsible for his leav
ing, but how about California's one
lone victory over Stanford since War
ner started coaching there?
A victory over the deadly rival
does not Insure a coach's Job any
more. Prink Calllson beat Oregon
States this year, but the only thing
Oregon alumni can see is that 33-0
"scorching" in the los Angeles
"oven." Football is outgrowing back
yard fence rivalries and to be se
cure, a coach has to turn In a record
like Notre Dame's.
Look at Jimmy Phelan up at
Washington. The yelps of the alumni
wolves were dismal even though he
defeated Stanford, U. C. L. A. and
scared the wits out of Southern Cal.,
the national champions. Nothing
short of a record like Notre Dame's
would satisfy most of the howlers.
Our Idea of one of the reasons
why Warner is leaving Stanford
comes from a statement made by a
Stanford football player several years
back. Pete Helscr, who played first
team guard along with Chuck Small
ing, Post, Robeskey, Dick Hyland,
and a few other "big shots."
EAST AND WEST
EOOTBALL STARS
END HARD DRILL
SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 30. (FV
Football stars of east and west went
through their last hard sessions of
practice today in preparation for the
charity contest here Monday.
Today's workouts climax 10 days of
stiff drill for both teams the east
at Stanford university and the west
at Berkeley. Sunday only light lim
bering up practice will be In order
as the 40-odd star athletes taper off
to a fine point for the contest.
Yesterday's drills were among the
hardest which either squad has gone
through. At Stanford the east eleven
met Ernie Ncvers' pickup team In a
"return" engagement and defeated 't
for a second time by a five-touchdown
margin. Bart Vlviano. Cornell
fullback, and Dick Fencl. Northwest
ern end, were the outstanding per
formers.
The workout at Berkeley was fea
tured by a long period of pass de
fense. Practice and the announce
ment by Coaches Dana X. Bible and
Orln Holllngbery of a tentative choice
for starters on the line. They are as
follows:
Ends Steve Hoiuff, Nebraska, and
Ralph Stone, Olympic club; tackles
Bill Morgan, Oregon, and Jack
Johnson. Utah: guards Clem Senn
Washington state, and Charles Mo
llnarl, Santa Clara; center Lawrence
Ely. Nebraska.
Helser predicted to us at that time
that the coming years would see
Stanford taking a back seat In foot
ball. "They're making a two-year
school out of Stanford," he com
plained. "Your football players do
not get there until they're Juniors
and only have two years to play
under Warner. The under division
work is gradually being eliminated
and It looks as though the college au
thorities want to make It Into a
graduate school.
Naturally, with Stanford becoming
a school for brain champs and Phi
Beta Kappas, football is becoming
subordinate. That's our guess on
w,hy Warner Is leaving. He sees
Stanford's football fame fading and
the future looking dismal if the
present policy Is followed up. With
out material, no coach can turn out
a team, and Stanford is not getting
the headllncrs any more. The fac
ulty is driving them away.

DETROIT. Mich., Jan. !. "The
finest Buick ever built!"
Thus do the critics acclaim the
1933 Buick. which was presented to
the motoring public today by Skin
ner s Garage. Here are the major
facts about this new car, according
to R. A. Skinner:
The most startling feature Is the
abolishment of the old kick-action
starter. There la no starter pedal I
A touch of the finger on a button
on the dash automatically engages
the starting gears by electro-magnetic
attraction and turns the motor.
fourth control headlights form an
other example of Buick ingenuity.
Headlights on the new Buick have a
fourth notch for what Is known as
a "passing beam." Tins, for passing
a car coming toward you, throws a
bright beam to the right side of the
road, brilliantly Illuminating the edge
of the pavement, and a dim beam
to the left side traffic lane.
The new Fisher body no-draft ven
tilation system Is considered one of
the most Important development
since closed cars came Into popular
use. It eliminates drafts in any part
of the car and the danger of clouded
vision In wet weather. At the same
time it provides a constant circulation
of fresh air that can be regulated by
any individual In the car without
causing discomfort to any other oc
cupant. Actual Increase In length Is empha
sized by the long, low, flowing lines
or the new Buick, The car forms
finished unity there Is nothing to
show that it consists of a body
mounted on a chassis. From roof
downward, It presents continuous
lines the entire chassis concealed
except the wheels. This has been
done by the use of skirted fenders
Bodies have been lowered 2'i Inches
without sacrificing headroom. The
Cront view is radically new. The fine-
mash, dull chromium finish radiator
grill la of graceful V-ahape contour.
Hoods are long, and this feature Is
emphasized by a tapering chromium
plated hood hinge.
Grades of upholstery heretofore
used only on custom-built cars are
standard on the closed body types of
all the 1033 Bulcks, and these may be
had In whipcord, mohair, or broad
cloth weaves in colors that harmo
nize with exterior finishes. Front
compartment are JU inches wider
and rear seats have been widened l'A
Inches. Window curtains on the closed
models have their rollers concealed
behind the upholstery with the cur
tains working through narrow slots.
Other features are the new rubber
mounting of the straight eight, valve-
ln-head Buick engine, new artillery
type steel wheels with 11-lnch dlame
tcr and large hubs and short, stocky
spokes that retain paint better than
wheels of wooden construction.
Ride control, introduced last year
by Buick, has been made automatic
as a further aid to driving ease. All
body types are wired for radio and
the engineers took another step for
ward besides installing an aerial; they
materially increased the charging rate
of the generator so that when the car
Is In operation ample electricity Is
available for the radio and other elec
trical equipment.
