Hobson Sets Brilliant Record Oreon't New Coach, Who Bringj Hit Team Hera Thursday, Hat Remarkable Career. Few young coaches have made such a rapid rise In col legiate competition as Howard Hobson. If Hobson never gains further recognition and he will he already, has a record rarely eQualled. Starting as bend coach at the University of Oregon this season, Hobble's future is still to be shaped. If he continues . toward athletic success as con sistently in the years to come . as he has in the past, he Is destined to become one of . the Paclfio coast's finest coaches. Here Is a resume of his car- " eer as a player and coacn: Howard Hobson first broke Into the athletic spotlight at Franklin nign in rorimuu. where he was an all-city and all-state choice in 1920 and 1921. At the University of Oregon, from 1923 to 1926 he was regarded as one oi m school's outstanding all-time hoopsters. He was captain in 1925 and 1926, when the Web foots garnered northern divis ion championships. After leaving Oregon, Hob son played and led the Mult nomah club quintet of Portland and in 1929 was the leading scorer of the Montclalr, New Jersey, Athletic club. The following two years. 1930 and part of 1931 he played both . professional basketball and , baseball. He was with the ' Hollywood baseball club in the ' Coast league and also with Providence and Syracuse. . Hobson's coaching records at Benson, Kelso, and fiouth : ern Oregon Normal, before coming to Oregon, were un usually brilliant. In two years (1927 and 1928) at Kelso his teams won 2$ and lost 14 games. , His success there sent him to Benson Polytechnic in Portland. There his 193 Benson quintet won the school's first city championship in 17 years and in doing so broke 16 city and state records and placed every man on the Portland, all star teams. His Benson teams won 48 and lost only 8 games In 1931 and 1932. . . From Benson Hobson moved np to Southern Oregon Normal school at Ashland, where he turned out the greatest teams in that school's history. The first year saw the Sons win 19 games and lose 6; in 1934 they won 23 and lost five, and in 1935 won 26 and lost live, for a grand total of 68 victories and only 15 defeats. Only one school, Oregon, won a series from the Sons in those three years and in the next two seasons lost six out of eight. Twice, in 193S and 1935, Southern Oregon was invited to participate in the National A. A. U. tournament and last year accepted. Of 20 college teams entered, the Sons was one of three to get to the third round, where all were eliminated. Several of Oregon's outstand ing athletes have come from Southern Oregon. They were Wlllard Jones and Budd Jones, hoop stars tor the past two years; Don McFadden, brilli ant pitcher on Oregon's 1934 and 1935 championship base ball teamB, and Ross Carter, all-coast guard, and Bob Brad dock, regular right halfback, . on the 1935 Webfoot eleven. Hobson's basketball coaching record is as follows: W. L. . 9 9 ...14 6 ...23 6 ...25 2 ...19 5 ...23 6 ...26 6 1927 Kelso, W. H. S. 19 211 Kelso 1931 Benson, Port. 23 1932 Benson 1933 S. O. N.

Southern Oregon Coaches Defeat Sons, 40 to 30 ASHLAND, Ore., Dec. 21. (IP) A team of five southern Ore gon coaches, playing together for the first time, surprised them selves and their opponents last night by defeating the Southern Oregon Normal quintet, 40 to 30. Conch Jean Gberhart of the Normal school played against his own team. Other mentors in the ' lineup included Bill Bowerman, Medford high; Russell Achlson, Medtord Junior high; Son. Fa ber, Ashlnnd high hud Earl Rog ers, Ashland Junior high. - A last period rally gave the eoaahes the victory. The mentors were looking for tougher opposition today. CLOSE CAME PLAYED HERE First Home Tilt Lost by Pelicans; Play Tonight Dunsmuir of northern Califor nia, holding stubbornly to a small lead piled up in the early minutes of play and keeping its opponents at bay with a puling zone defense, eked out a 19-16 victory over the Klamath high quintet last night in the Pelican youngsters' first home game of the year. Three points divided winners from losers at the end of the fray, the same three-point mar gin which, with only momentary lapses, was maintained through out nearly four full periods of as fast ana thrilling action as the Klamath gym floor has ever witnessed. Score at the half stood: Dunsmuir 11, Klamath 8. No player on either squad stood out from his teammates in a game in which each one was called upon to perform to his ut most. Forward Beck and Center Paletta of the Callfornlans tal lied seven points each to share high-scoring honors. Bob Durbin with a field goal and three suc cessful foul shots, was top man for the Pelicans, In a preliminary tussle which nearly matched the top game in excitement, the Klamath Wild cats nosed out Balslger, much- defeated member of the city league, by a score of 17 to 16. The Klamath-Mt. Shasta game. which was to have been played here tonight, was cancelled Fri day afternoon. The Pelicans will go up against Lost River of the city league in a substitute con test.
