HAD GAME FOR locals CREDIT Due GRIZZLIES
Coach and Teams Have Made
Fine Showing in Spitesof
Difficulties.

Athletics. especially the indoor
branches at the State University, are
being conducted in the face of many
difficulties, and the man who has
to put his shoulder to the wheel and
push the whole load. has faced many
problems this year such as would
tend to discourage any human being.
Under the present schedule Of gym
classes and other classes which in
wade the gymnasium during the day,
the basketball floor has only been
available two or three times week
during the past month. Basketball is
not n game of Drawn. but of team
work and basket shooting ability, and
when a team is unable to get together
for practice more than IA couple of
times Il week the result may be i'm
agined.
Nissen Uraided.
Coach Nissen has been called upon
to supervise and coach all sports.
without any assistance and ut the
present time, has charge of three diff
ferent teams, basketball. wrestling and
track. With a short hour or two to be
time, in practice, and with the coaclr
forced to run from one to the other,
without time to give any detailed in
struction anywhere. the results must
be inadequate.
In spite of the fact that the ASgic
l.,.N lnI
the basketball season thus far has
been a success. as the team has won
four games and lost four, after start
ing the season with five men who
had practiced together only once be-
fore the first game. The loss of John
Christian Bentz, a power of defense,
further. embarrassed the team. but
their fighting spirit. which has pulled
them through many holes, is yet there
and they will give their future OPP
ponents hard fights, even though
tlfey are playing all the games left on
the schedule on foreign floors.
Track Work Started.
Track work started this week and
the Bruins hope to make a good show
ing on the cindGrs and on the field.
though few veterans returnetl'from last
years team, which was downed in
dual track meets by both Washington
State college and the University of
Idaho. A heavy schedule has been ar
ranged, including a meet with Mon
tana state college, and the university
will also send runners and weight men
TO Pullman to the northwestern con-
ference meet in June. The Pruins have
always held their own in the weight
events, due to the efforts of BentZ,
Keeran, Cooke and other giants of the
squad, but in the sprints and run3 the
opponents have always piled up points
enough to win by Il big margin. The
only victory for the Bruins in dual
meets during the last two years, was
over the Aggies, whom they downed
by Il big margin in 1915.
The Bruin wrestling squad has a
couple of matches scheduled with con-
ference teams, but prospects are any
thing but bright. Two aspirants
Harold Jones. middleweight and Frank
Philips lightweight, stand out most
prominently on the squad and they
are expected to have q hard time hold
ing their own against the experienced
Oregon Agricultural and the Wash
