much information has been re
ceived. However, it is known
that Jim Davis will have four
lettermen back for this year
headed by Hughes, a two-strips
winner.
Cavemen Hopeful
In the Cavemen camp things
are looking up. With a new
coach and a new system as well
as five lettermen, they have
high hopes of reaching the top
of the ladder. Arnold Benard,
a graduate of North Dakota
State, has sent his team into
four games to date and has won
two of them. They Una up with
John Gray and Ray Btrow
bridge at forwards, Harold

Los Angeles, Dec. 18. (IP)
Prof. John Olmsted of U.C.L.A.,
president of the Pacific coast
conference, predicts that fresh
men will be playing on varsity
squads In the far west beginning
next fall.
He said the matter would be
taken up at the June meeting
of the conference. It was men
tioned at the recent Palm
Springs confab.
During the first world war
freshmen were allowed to play
on varsity teams," he recalled.
With many of the older col
lege men being called into the
service it looks as if the same
procedure will be followed for
1842."
He expects the freshman par
ticipation to be discussed at the
National Collegiate Athletic as
sociation meeting in Detroit De
cember 30 and 31. He will attend.

Closing Urn tut Cleaalfled Ada

By Fred Hampson
Corvallis, Ore., Dec. 18. (.IP)
Oregon State; which entrains
tomorrow for North Carolina to
play Duke on New Year's day
in the transplanted Rose bowl
game, has behind it a tradition
for being only so-so in Intersec-
tional football.
The Durham duel with Duke
will be the 20th intersectlonal
engagement since OSC went in
for football. Of the previous 19
none has been in the Rose
bowl the Beavers won 10, lost
eight and tied one.
Two victories were against
opponents hardly of major foot
ball status, the Hawaiian all'
stars and the University of Ha
wail, beaten during an island
voyage In 1939.
Nebraska Tough
The Beaver record would be
a lot better If Coach Lon Stiner
had side-stepped a trio of games
with the University of Nebras
ka, his alma mater, in 1933-35-
36. The Huskers whipped OSC
22-0, 26-20 and 32-14. Long be
fore Stiner ever thought of
coaching at Oregon State, Neb
raska took a couple of falls out
of the Beavers, 17-7 in 1917 and
14-0 in 1924.
Disregarding Nebraska, the
western Rose bowlers look pret
ty good intersectionally. Cer
tainly the school has a record
for upsettlr.g eastern favorites.
OSC skyrocketed Pacific coast
grid stock in 1933 by winning
a stunning decision, 9-6. over
a powerful Fordham team that
was being nominated for na
tional honors. That game came
after OSC had held the long
unbeaten Southern California
Trojans to a scoreless tie using
only 11 men. The team was
hailed as the giant-killer of the
year but a week after the Ford
ham game It stopped off at Lin
coln to play Nebraska. That
ended the glory.
Unbeaten Duke s January 1
rival began playing intersec
tionally In 1913. The Oregon
Aggies (the nam was changed
to Oregon State in the late
1920s) of that vintage knocked
over the Michigan Aggies 20-0
at Lansing. Later In the same
year Syracuse came to Portland
and won 28-0.
Among Oregon State's best In
tersectional showings: 20-0 vic
tory over Marquette in 1926,
25-13 win over New York uni
versity in 1928 and a 14-7 win
over Detroit university In 1929.

Betty Newell, Little Housewife
Who Won National Golf Diadem,
Rated Woman Athlete of Year
TURKEY SHOOT AT
CENTRAL PT. CLUB
By Harold Clausen
New York, Dec. '18. P) Betty Hicks Newell, the 105
pound housewife from Long Beach, Cal., who came east to
win the national golf title in her first trial, is the woman
athlete of the year.
The 10-year-old , shotmaker.
who already has turned pro and
given up all chance of retaining
the crown, was placed first by
24 of the 66 sports editors who
competed in the Associated
Press' annual poll.
Her 101 points, compiled by
giving her three for each first
place ballot, two for second and
one for third, shot her far ahead
of another bride, Mrs. Elwood
Cooke, whose tennis campaign
ing brought her 69 points.
The . former Sarah Palfrey
Fabyan was ranked the United
States No. 1 woman racquet
wielder earlier in the week.
Mrs. Newell replaces Alice
Marble, professional tennis
queen, at the head of the list.
Miss Marble, leader in both
1939 and 1940, was inactive
much of the time since early
spring and she slumped to fifth
place with 38 points, in con
trast to the 216 of a year ago.
Third and fourth places went
to a pair of young beauteous
swimmers, Nancy Merki nosing
out Gloria Callen, 46 to 43.
Others in the top nine were
Patty Berg, golfing professional;
Helen Crlenkovich, swimming;
and Mrs. Babe Didrikson-Zahar-ias
and Betty Jameson, golf.
For the first time in recent
years Sonja Henie Topping,
darling of the figure skaters and
movies, failed to draw a re
sponse from any of the sports
critics.
One of the voters. Urban
Muenz of the Jamestown, N. D.,
Sun, gave one vote for Marion
Miley, "who always went down
fighting, be it in golf or other
wise." Miss Miley, one of the
nation's better golfers, was slain
as she and her mother surprised
robbers in their clubhouse home
at Lexington, Ky., late in Sep
tember.
Unless a change In defense
plans dictates otherwise, the
Central Point Sportsmen's club
will hold a turkey and mer
chandise shoot at 10 a. m. Sun
day, rain or shine, at its traps
just north of Central Point.
The management said there
would be plenty of turkeys,
bacon and other commodities.
The public is invited to attend.
This will probably be the last
shoot on the Central Point
grounds as the club intends to
consolidate its activities with
these of the Medford Gun club
at the latter's new range on the
Crater Lake highway, the man
agement said.
Activities of the Central
Point club will be somewhat
curtailed during the war emer
gency but the club "will posi
tively be kept alive so that we
can take up our unfinished
work of conservation when the
time comes," said the manage
ment. "Until such time, the club
puts its whole facilities at the
disposal of the Jackson County
Council of Defense.
Cigarette Tax Foes
Failed to Tell Cost
Salem, Dec. 18. (IP) Attor
ney General I. H. Van Winkle
held yesterday that referendum
petitions against the two-cent
per package cigarette tax, pass
ed by the 1941 legislature, were
insufficient because the State
Retail Grocers' association, spon
sors of the referendum move
ment, failed to detail its expend
itures in its campaign against
the tax.
If Secretary of State Earl
Snell accepts the ruling, the tax
would become effective. How
ever, a court fight is expected.
