As far aa we can remember, Oregon .tin hna tn hrenk Into the Win column at the movie center under Prlnk'a guidance. The last three tlmi they went to Los Angeles they lost by something or nothing to 33. In 1933 and '34 U. S. C. thumped the Ducks by the same vote. 33-0, and this year U. O.

In football. Washington used to manage pretty well against Oregon until some smart press agent Injected a "Jinx" Into the conversation, an Oregon product that now hangs about the. Washington campus, dismally whispering In roach Jimmy Phelan'e ear that Oregon Is- going to win. Jinxes seem to work both ways. It would he satisfying It that l.os Angeles shroud would develop few amlilrtesteroiis symptoms. What will happen when, and It. Joe Louis climbs through the ropes to meet the aging world champion of heavyweights, Jamea Braddock? Both are the center of remarkable performances In 193. Braddock scor ing the most amaslng comeback In ring history when he took the crown from playboy Max Bser, and Louie In dynamiting his way through 36 professional fights, winning all of them. 33 by clear knock-outs. The aame thing will happen that happened to Camera. Baer and uzcu dun. He'll chop Brnddock down In whatever round he happens to feel so Inclined, although the sporting aulhorltlea are agreed that there Is st least an outside chsnce that the champion will land at leaat one or possibly two good blows, something that no one else has done for a long time. Always a cynic, John Conner recently miiile a pungent remark anrnl Louis' feat of knocking I'rrmliin off his nnrlcnl plus for the llrst time In tils IV yenr career In the ring. Quoth John: "Sure.

The ball hit a awallow In flight, both the ball snd the bird dropping dead. Then Allman holed out for a olrdte three. We once did something like that wl t h a slln g and a green home -cheat-nut. only It was the bird's fault. It aa one of those slings &l r y?y made of two leather thong and a leather pocket, with which we were shooting the chestnuts almost out of sight. A night-hawk, foolishly flying about in the near-dusk, spied the nut coming up toward him at a great speed. Evidently thinking It to be some sort of beetle or bug. the hawk took a dive at It, the two meeting at an astounding speed. With a surprised "chawwwk," the bird was knocked straight up In the air for several feet, and ' we caught It as It fell, stone dead. We've been trying to hit the neighbor's wood shed with a sling ever since, with no success. PACKERS MAY PLAY . iN PORTLAND JAN. 5 PORTLAND, Dec. 10.

Mr. Newbury asked Mr. Whiting. "You want to keep working here so that you can go out with the next Fourth of July parade," com mented Mr. Newbury.
