Edged by Wolves 52-49
Lewis and Clark's bas~etball
team opened its FCP season with
a bang by overwhelming the Pa­
cific College Quakers 74 to 34 at
the Collins View gym Friday,
Dec. 6.
The Pioneers piled 4P an early
lead and were never headed.
George Lund, L & C forward,
was high point man for the ev­
ening with 14 points. Booth, Pa­
cific gua;d, was high for his
team with 11 points.
The boys from Newberg lacked
speed and depth in manpower
possessed by Lewis and Clark
squad, which used a fast break to
advantage and held a slight edge
in height.

Comics Team Action
At Local Fracas
A beeping good time was had
by all (and Gibby too) at the
first pre-conference basketball
game with the Pacific coJiege
last Friday night at Collins View
school. •
The game proved to be an un­
veiling of a team which used
a fast break with the efficiency
of a group of Alcatraz inmates.
Several spectators brought
their own . seats using ample
crates, blocks of wood and each
other to get the load off their
metatarsals and on their postures.
One group of Lewis and
Clark students in the sidelines .
engaged themselves in a session
of handwriting analysis during
the first part af the game. Unable to hold a first quarter
lead, the Lewis and Clark hoop
squad _dropped its first prelimin­
ary game of the season as the
Oregon College of Education
Wolves eked out a 52 to 47 win
Saturday at Monmouth.
Taking an early m~rgin, the
lo.cal quint~t, behind the sharp
shooting of Bni McClusky and
Merritt Kelsay: pulled ahead in
the initial quarter 15 to 10 only
to fall behirld at the end of the
first half.
Fast scoring by the Pioneers in
the final p·eriod closed t~e gap
between the two clubs as the
L & C lads rallied to within three
counts off the 0 C E crew.
Lewis and Clark topped the
Wolves in field goals, but free
throws marked the Pioneer down­
fall, hitting only 7 for 20 while
the Oregon five, chalked 18 ·for
20.
McClusky led the scoring for
the orange and black with 14
points and Hamer totaled 12 for

Managers Needed
Coach Eldon Fix today sent
out a plea for three basketbal!
managers. Two are needed for
the freshman squad, and the
third will assist the present
varsity manager, Ed Treick.
Duties of the freshman manag­
ers ipclude taking charge of
team equipment, traveling with
the squad and keeping the
team's scoring r.ecords.
"The varsity assistant will be
the right-hand for Tr~ick, said
Ooach Fix. 'I

Pollard at the pivot post, the L C

height missed during early season
tilts. Although plagued by a knee
injury, Pollard is expected to see
action during the week-end
games.
Probable starting lineup for to­
night's game at Reed: Bill Mc­
Clusky and Merritt Kelsay at the
guard posts, Bob Pollard at cen­

Peterson at the forward spots.
Lewis and Clark will open
competition in "the Nlorthwest

Coach Fix has hopes that the
new gym will be completed dur­

but due to weather conditions
plans may change.

FACTS
by John Hoefling
Pre-season varsity basketball
games are underway now so here
are some facts about the boys who
are playing. At one forward is
George Lund; a hard-dhving sen­
ior from Grant high school of
Portland, Lund, standing 6'1" and
weighing 178 pounds, was a par­
ticipant in all the major sports
while in high school. He is one of
the leading scorers for the local
squad.
"S d " F I we e orsgren a so plays
forward. He played basketball
and baseball while attending Ben­
son Te<;h of Portlaud. Forsgren
stands 6'1" tall, weighs 175
pounds, and is a freshman.
One ot the centers is Miles
Samuelson, a junior and. basket­
ball letterman at L & C three
years ago. Samuelson makes his
home at Olney, Oregon where he
played basketball.1 He adds height
to the team, standing 6'2'h" and
weighs 205 pounds.
Another center who has seen
little action so far beacuse of
a football ·-injury is "Big Bob"
Pollard. His 6'6" will add more'
much-needed height to the team.
Pollard comes from Springfield
high school and the IJ. of Oregon.
He plays football, basketball
baseball, and participates i~
track.
Speed-boy of the Pioneer quin­
tet is "Breezin' Bill" McClusky
of Franklin high school and Ore­
gon State College. McCluskey, a
senior is another leading scorer
of the team. He is 5'10" tall and
we.ighs 155 pounds. Bill sees his
action at guard.
Everybody, it seemed, was
chewing gum, including the
sc~r .ekeeper, and several lads
perched atop a pile of . chairs
and looking down at the game
with their big bright eyes like
owls from a limb ..
One spectator was heard 'to
state dryly, "That time keeper's
signal sounds like a goose call." Locker Room Dribbling Indicates
Players Eager to Unveill(ew Gym
' The Olympians have been sel­
ected by the student council to
plan and organize half-time enter­
tainment during the basketball
season. Bob Mills and Irv Hefford
were elected to head the enter­
tainment committee for the first
six weeks of basketball competi­
tion, with another group handling
the remainder of the season Another capable guard is Ted
Harding, a junior and transfer
from. the U. of Montana and Mult­
nomah College. Harding is 6' tall
weighs 170 poUJ-ids and played
basketball in his high school days.
Swimmers to Meet
Incidentally, the Lewis and
Clark "Blacks" swamped the
Pacific College "Blues" (sounds
like a 'bruising game) by a score
of 76 to 33. '

ing them the intricacies . of the
game, such a:l running toward
the player from whom the ball is

er might say, "meet me with the

As aforementioned, the prac­
tice gym more nearly resembles
a modern, wdl-lighted, amply­
ventilated, unfurnished dining
I • room than a• basketball court suit­
able for college games. However, ·
this far surpasses Mr. Naismith's
original game of shooting at b~t­
tomless peach-baskets, and much
thanks is herewith extended to
the faculty of Collins View for
allowing the different teams ·tha
use of the school's facilities.
The main topic of locker room
discussion, naturally, is the new
gymnasium going up on the cam­
pus. Its elusive unveiling date has
been tentatively re-set for some e
time late in January. The final
cement-pouring is supposed to
occur the first week in the new
year, with an allowance ot two
weeks for 'rigid-mortar' to set in.
With the inauguration of the
new building the 'fleet-five' lose
their only alibi, ina\much as they
have all been equipped with the
very latest in shoe-laces, T-shirts,
sweat-socks,-even Neo-lite soles.
From all reports, however, they
probably won't need, any alib.is.

Once more, they want to stress resolutions is one of the foremost A plan for raising the student body fee to $15 per sem­

sented to the student body this week.
Ballots, which have been placed in students' mail boxes,
should be returned to the ballot box in the post office by
Tuesday, according to John Elwood, student body judicial
commissioner.
As proposed by the adminis­
tration 1 and student council, the
plan would incorporate the stu­
dent body fee into the regular
tuition charge. If the plan is
adopted, total tuition charges
will be $175; if it is rejected, the
total will be $170. The increased
tuition will include health, li­
brary and gymnasium fees, as
well as this student activities fee.

The $5 increase would provide

ating the collection of separate
dues for each of these organiza­

the yearbook would also be pos­
sible which would do away with
individual cost to the purchaser.
According to vice-president Bill
Jackson;· after AWS, AMS, class
dues and Voyageur price is taken
into consideration, · the plan
would only involve about an ad­
ditional dollar from the student's
pocket. This exxtra dollar would
increase allocations for athletics,
publications and intercollegiate

Students Urged to Unite lo Stop. Bill·
Which Will Cut State Aid to Veterans
"Opposition to a bill which will suspend state financial aid
to approximately 1400 Oregon state veterans was urged this week
by Edward T. Taggart, chief of the ~ducation division of .the State
Office of Veterans' affairs. .
The bill ((ll. B. 447) has already passed the State House of
Representatives and now awaits the approval of the Senate Military
Affairs committee before going t6 the Senate.
If passed, H. B. 447 will deprive a $35 monthly subsistence
allowance to those students who wish to continue their education
beyond the four years allowed by the GI-bill. Also afected will be
students who have insufficient GI-tlme to complete · their college
education and intend to use state aid. The .first category consists
mostly of pre-medical, pre-dental and pre-law students.
Typical reaction was that voiced by John R. Dunbar, pre­
dental student at Multnomah college, who described the legislation
as an act of politicians "trying to sneak one by". Dunbar, following
Taggart's advice, has visited all colleges in the PorUand area organ­
izing opposition and requests that ·veterans write to Senator Lee
Patterson, State Legislature, Salem, voicing their objections. Red Cross Drive ~

Sacajaweans, Amicans and

Unafraid!
"Unafraid" is an appropriate theme for Lewis and•
Clark's 1947 Religious Emphasis week, to be observed on the
campus from March 30 through April 3, for the dominant
attitude of the world's peoples seems to be fear of the future.
It is certainly an attitude that permeates the Amerfean
scene, including the colleges. WaT's cessation did little to
alleviate this feeling. It merely shifted the emphasis from
fear of Germany to fear of Russia, from buzz-bombs to atom­
ic bombs, from fear of an unstable present .to fear of an un­
certain future.
Why have Religious Emphasis week? For the same rea­
son, perhaps, that we decorate our Christmas tree with tin­
sel; for the same reason, perhaps, that we try to look our
best on Easter Sunday; for the same reason, perhaps, that
we give to needy_ hands a portion of our wealth.
It is a Lewis and Clark tradition. It is an outward ex­
pression of the religious foundation upon which the college
was built. It stresses an often-neglected aspect of life--our
relationship to the divine. But most of all, Religious Emphas­
is week is a time of personal growth, a time of re-defining
goals and of seeking a more accurate perspective for a more
useful tomorrow.
Religious Emphasis week is designed for all students,
faculty members and their friends. Its basic endeavor is to
reawaken the challenge to fearless Christian service; and to
kindle in those apparently indifferent to religion the eternal
promise of a fearless Christian life.
'THE BARK
More Snack Shack
To The Editor:
A few of the more elegant
members of our student body
have sent in stinging letters on
the Snack Shack, enumerating
and "making the mountain out of
the mole hill" concerning the
faults of the bar. No constructive
criticism accompanied these let­
ters. It seems that these people
just like the sound of their chip­
ping teeth.
First of all the Snack Bar is
OK as temporary buildings go;
it doesn't rain in there, or get
unbearably cold; there's a piano
that's always being pounded;
they serve some fairly decent
chow in the S.S.; nothing fancy,
but it stays down. What more do
these fops want-Hammus Ala­
bamus on a silver platter?
There is always a gang in there,
munching or shooting the breeze;
they even break out in song now
and then. No, activities aren't
curbed by the bar's appearance .
Sure the place has that litt~red,
lived-in-look, but only because
the guys and gals don't retrieve
their near misses.
The main objection seems to
be the trash and all round messy·
appearance of the floors and
tables, a situation easily remedi­
ed. More time picking up after
themselves and less time gum­
beating would improve things
greatly for these epicurean con-
nosseurs.

THROW ANOTHER LOG
,ON THE FIRE .....
By Jim Sherbert
Four-thousand dollars sounds like a lot of money for the very
simple reason that four-thousand dollars is a lot of money. (My,
what an astute statement. ed. note). However, this large figure is
merely an accumulation of many smaller figures, ·~ ~.g. four, one­
thousand dollar bills; eight, 500-dollar bills; or, one-thousand, four­
dollar bills.
This lesson in elementary mathematics could probably be put
to a more practical problem by using the number of attending Lew­
is and Clark students as the common denominator . (a more com­
mon bunch of denominators I've never met). This figure, 832, can
be squeezed into the numerator, 4,000, nearly five times. Four one­
dollar bills and some heavy change, roughly 94c, would be each
person's obligation if the need for such a sum should ever exist.
Granted. not all ·of us carry $4.94 on our person at all times,
but if the cause warranted it I'm sure that amount could be pro­
duced. Now. all jesting aside. what would one-tenth of any of these
figurn amouDi to? It would be leas than fifty-cent• per person, and
400 dollars total. That is the sum the Red Cross is asking for.
They shouldn't be -forced to ask twice. The p~rp?s: of t~is
article is to point out that a small offering by each md1V1dual w1ll
easily eat up the deficit. Don't let the $400 sign scare you away
from the milk-bottles or deposit-boxes; youl' share is 49c.
Surely the worth of this organization cannot be questioned.
There are probably several, or mor,e, students on this camp~s t~day
who have received nearly the full $400 quota in hospital serv1ces,
medical supplies, coffee and doughnuts, blood-plasma, etc. Let. us
all help these several to repay the Red Cross for the many hfe­
saving, and comforting acts they have, and -do perform.

Histo1y, Political Science Prof

Most of Mr. John H. Walker's
history and political science stu­
dents would never guess that he
had spent some• time in Alcatraz
and San Quentin prisons.
To be specific, he occasionally
"spent some time" (three years)
teaching the inmates of these in­
stitutions, under the auspices of
the University of California,
where 'he regularly taught. Hi!;
students ranged from morons to
geniuses, but he said many of
them were sincerely trying . to
better themselves for 'life on the
outside.

peace? Don't worry, the politici­
ans and the militarists will wake
you when the time comes to do

But we say, "Wake Now! Be­
fore it's too late!"
J. E. Miller
REFLECTION POOL Mr. Walker says a former poli­
tical boss of San Francisco did an
excellent job of organizing the
San Quentin library. At that time
he held the highest scholarship
on record as a graduate of the
University of California.
An interesting sidelight devel­
oped in St. Louis after Mr. Walk­
er left CaHfornia. He was visited
by a former fellow prison teach­
er, an East Indian, who appeared
h:i American clothes and a tur­
ban. Questioned about it, he ex­
plained that with the turban on,
he could move freely throughout
the South with all the privileges
of white men. Whereas without
it he believed he would be mis­
taken for a Negro.
Mr. Walker has charge of the
political science department and
is adviser for the International
Relations club. He came to Lewis·
and Clark in 1943 from Chapman Friday. March 21, ~947

appear at . the ~ppo inted place
within ten minutes after the
scheduled time for a contest, the
field supervisor may, at his own
discretion, declare the contest

ant ready to play.
Article IV
· Poatponements
Section 1. A scheduled contest
may be postponed only by unani­
mous agreement of both teams' Coach Matty Mathews has for
the past two weeks been molding
the LC bi!seball team into a po­
tent ball club.
In a recent visit to the Swan
15land practice field, we saw
enough to convince us that the
Pioneers will undoubtedly give
a very good account of themselv­
es on the baseball diamond this
spring. Such future opponents as
th~ University of Oregon, Oregon
State and also the Northwest
Conference schools will be meet-
. ing a team that has a starting
lineup of experienced, capable
ball players. Whether Coach
Mathews can come up with some
reserves to match this first string
is still a question.
One of the classiest features of
the ballclub is the smooth work
of the infielders. Although noth­
ing definite has been decided by
Matty, it seems that four in­
fielders have the inside track.
Doug Graham, ex-Lincoln Hi
prepper, is holding down first
base. At second base and short­
stop the Pioneers will have in
Boyd Gibson and Bill McClusk­
ey one of the slickest double­
play combinations pClS'sible in
college baseball. The heavy hit-.
ting Gibson is a transfer from
Oregon and McCluskey was a
two year letterm:m at .pregon
State.
At third base is the veteran
George Lund, ex-Willamette U.,
a good hitter and fielder. The
Pioneers also have a capable re­
ceiver of the fire-ball · slants of
husky Bob Signer in Virgil
Gro~s. Both these boys learned
managers and of the intramural
director or assistant.
Section 2. In league tourna­
ments; postponed contests may be
played at ady time agreet upon
by the two teams' managers and
the intramural department, prq­
vided they are played before the
regular league schedule is com­
pleted.
Section 3. In elimination tourn­
aments, postponed contests shall
be played ' wah-in twenty-four
hours unless the two team man­
agers and the iatramural depart­
ment find furtper postponement
necessary.
Article V
All-year Point ayalem
An all-year inter-unit compe­
tition shall be conducted in addi­
tion to the single championships
in the various sports. All year
standings shall be determined
on point basis.

game. Dr. Overmeyer, a professor
of history ·and economics, has
played tournament tennis in Ore­
gon, California, Alabama and
Mexico. H.e was formerly a tennis
coach at the University of Ala­
bama.
C o a c h Overmeyer stresses
practice as essential for a person
to play a winning game of tennis.
He wants to work with all stu­
dents interested to help develop
a tennis team for Lewis and
Cl~rk. "This generation of stu­
dents never 1>layed tennis be­
cause they went to war; there­
fore the Pioneer team must be
built up from freshman and oth­
er people ·interested in tha
game."
Classes are being held for be­
ginners on Monday, Wednesday
and Friday from 2 to 3 p.m.,
and for the varsity from 3 to 5
on·. the local courts. The college
furnishes balls, nets and other
supplies, while the individual
player must furnish his !>Wn
shoes and racquet. Anyone wish­
ing to obtain these should see
Dr. Over111eyer.
Competition has been schedul­
ed with some schools of the
Northwest ~onference and with
Portland U. When as"ked if the
Pioneers would play Reed col­
lege, Coach Overmeyer replied,
"Reed has decided that they are
too good to play Lewis and Clark.
It may be that Reed wouJd beat
us--what's the matter, are they
afraid of winning?"
Three players ' showing · good
form in the first practice sessions
are Ted and Bill Preble and
George Hudson. Other players
look promising and may develop
with more practice.
