The Municipal Committee has been Off
cially requested to take under consideration
the necessity for rebuilding the Warden's
house at the Richmond Penitentiary and
also to find the money for that purpose.
The officials of the administration who
control the finances of the municipality
know that there is not sufficient money to
pay the ordinary expenses of the public in
situations to the end of the fiscal year. The
Official request goes futher, to have the
house rebuilt before the expiration of three
months, as the Warden who is going on
a vacation is expected to return to his post
in the next three months.

OREGON LOSES AS
PATTERSON STARS

Last Friday and Saturday nights
at the y. Of W. Athletic Pavilion
a hard-fighfing band of Webfeet
led by the duslxy Chuck Patterson
went down to defeat in both CON
tests. Friday night Washington
won 80 to %, and Saturday night
he f1uslSies completely routed the
firing giants from Eugene.
Seattle got little chance to see
Patterson play the first game.
Starting out with a great display
of class and finesse Patterson to-
tailed four points for Oregon before
the Huskies could register a goa
but before the first ten minutes OF
play had elapsed the lucl1less Ore
gon center was ruled out of the
game with four personal fouls a.
gainst him After Patterson was
out of the game the Ducks were
without their floor general and the
Washington Huskies came on to
WIN after displaying one Of the
finest shows of courage and game
ness to be seen here in years.
Saturday night was almost a re-
petition of Friday Patterson ag-
ain put the Oregon Ducks out IN
front by scoring the first basket
of the game, however, this time
the Husl1ies soon overlook the fad
ing Webfeet and made a complete
route of the contest. finishing the
game with the second team. This
boy Patterson was the smoothest
and most polished center to appear
on a Washington court since the
palmy days of Ed Lewis, the giant
center from O.S.C.
Patterson continually got the
ball off the blackboard, out-jumped
the high-scoring Bishop, and was
q constant thorn in the Huskie
side with his outstanding floor
play and geneI alship.
Patterson was ably assisted by
@Rubinoff3 Sam Leobowitz, and
Howell, the 6 foot 5 forward who
earned the ire Of the fans by his
continual beefing against the Of
ficials.
Bishop was the high point man
for the Huskies and received great
help from his mates. Little Wagn
holding the high scoring Howell to
minimum OF points. The super
ior condition of the Washington
squad which enabled them to keep
driving at top speed is what swung
the scales IN their favor. The two
teams meat again this week end
