Georges Dusette put on a one

night at the Klamath armory by
withstanding the combined ef
forts of two musclers to throw
him in the "battle royal" and

by walloping "Blood and Guts"

two straight falls.
He captured each flop with his
famed and powerful full-Nelson

the "Grey Mask" next Friday.
Davidson never had a prayer
against tho French strongman,
although he put up a game bat
tle. No fall was gained in the
first canto, but Dusette clamped
a Nelson on David.wn in the sec
ond heat to grab a fall and fol
lowed up with another aftcr the
third stanza was less than a min
ute old.
In the- scml-wlndup, Jack
Kiscr was awarded the decision
over Tough' Tony Ross by Ref
eree Wally Moss due to Tony's
quaint use of the ropes.
Jack took the first tumble
with a series of dropkicks, fol
lowed by a full body slam and a
body press. Ross knotted the
count in the third frame with a
grapevine, but in the fourth heat
Tony's exuberance got out of
bounds when he playfully
hooked Riser's chin over the up
permost rope and then gave the
rope a terrific jerk which all but
decapitated the hapless Kiser. At
in is point, moss stopped in and
gave Jack the nod while Tony
stormed to no avail.
In the opening scuffle, Pete
Bclcastro and r Gust . Johnson
tussled to a draw. Pete copped
the first flop with a series of
forearm wallops followed by a
body slam and body press. Gust
evened matters in the third
round with a leg stretch that
caused Pete to toss In the towel

Webfoots
Meet WSC
Tonight
Oponing Joust of Series
Will Be Played At Pullman;
Ken Hayet Doubtful Starter
PULLMAN, March 10 (P)
For the second time in eight
years the Webfoots of the Uni
versity of Oregon and Cougars
of Washington State college are
meeting tonight to crack a tie
and decide the northern division,
Puciiie coast conference basket
ball championship.
As the teams made final plans
for the 8 n. m. scramble. Coach
Jack Fricl of WSC predicted it
would be a "battle of back
boards" and Coach John Warren
said his Oregon crew might be
handicapped in the rebound tus
sles by Ken Hayes' ailing toes.
Hayes, who stands 8 feet 7
inches, was counted upon by
Warren to check State's Vince
Hanson, who is an inch taller.
Sprained toes, said the coach,
might force Hayes to remain on
the bench in this crucial opening
argument ot a three-game ser
ies, which winds up next week
in Eugene.
Oregon and Washington State
met in a sudden-death playoff in
1037 and the Cougars won the
division crown, 'ihey lost to
Stanford in the coast conference
title series, which will not be
played this year. Instead, the di
vision winner will go to Kansas
City for the western NCAA tour
nament. Each team carries a red hot
scoring ace. Hanson wound up
the regular schedule with a new
division scoring record. Dick
Wilkins of Oregon led the di
vision and the nation in the tally
chase through the first half of
the season.
Each team also has a Hamil
ton playing guard, and not mere
ly to confuse the scorers. Bob
Hamilton is a sparkplug for the
Webfoots and George Hamilton
has been labeled by Friel one of
the nest guards ever to wear the
WbU colors.

Tho San Francisco club also

Abolish One-Year Playing Rule
Frank Murray, University of Virginia football coach, Is deffe
nitely and frankly at odds with folks who have made the restore
tion of the one-year rule their top post-war plan.
He says. "For 25 years I have been asking, whv should ai
legitimate siuuent in any regular university or
college nave to wait around a year before being
permitted to compete in intercollegiate ath
letics? Nobody, as yet, has given me a suitable
answer, though I have heard all the bromides
and phony excuses."
We are inclined to agree with Murray on
the sheer stupidity of this rule. Why in the
name of common sense, should a boy have to
wait around a year before he is allowed to play
for his school? We frankly do not believe there
is an answer to the question that is logical and
aboveboard. We would welcome any and all
ideas on the subject from the readers of this
pillar.
Washington State Still Favored
In our meanderings around town, we have talked to a num
ber of people about the outcome of the Washington State-Oregon
tussle tonight at Pullman and they all seem to be of about the
same opinion they want Oregon to win, but they don't think
the Webfoots can make it.
That's about the way we feel about it, too. We would like to
see the Ducks cop the first titular tilt, but from where we sit
it looks like the Cougars. If Hays Is unable to play, Oregon will
be in an extremely unfavorable position, as the Webfoots' bean
pole is the only guy around who can come even close to stopping
the Cougar record-breaker, Vince Hanson.
Even if he is able to participate in the game, we don't fed
that Hays will make much difference. When Oregon played the
Leathernecks from the Marine Barracks here in Klamath Falls,
we watched the altitudinous Webfoot center amble up and down
the floor and he appeared to us to be of about as much use to
the team as three tails on a cow.
He has, of course, improved in the course of the season, but
he still cannot be rated in a class with Hanson, even in our
fondest dreams. t
Anyway, we'll all know tonight how things shape up. We
still say the Cougars, but we hope we're wrong. We've bean
wrong so many times, once more won't hurt anything!

Big Ten Commissioner May
Be Selected at Meet Today
CHICAGO, March 10 (P)
The faculty representative com

unanimously appointed Kenneth

university athletic director, as
conference athletic commissioner
to succeed the late Major John

CHICAGO, March 10 (P) Of
ficials of the Western conference,
who have struggled for three
months to select a successor to
the late Mai. John L. Griffith
as athletic commissioner, hoped
to complete mat tasK today.
Conference athletic directors
have held four meetings and,
after suggesting changes in the
circuit's athletic code that would
broaden the commissioner's pow
ers, apparently reached an
agreement Thursday.
Yesterday they-met with fac
ulty representatives from nine of
the 10 conference schools,
hoping to wind up the meeting
by naming a successor to Grif
fith, the Big Ten's only commis
sioner. But the meeting broke
up without a vote after Dr. W. F.
Lorenz of the University of Wis
consin, faculty committee chair
man, suggested no vote should
be taken without full represen
tation of the group.
He referred to the absence of
Henry Rottschaeffer, University
of Minnesota faculty representa
tive, who was unable to attend
yesterday's meeting. However,
