COACH McEWAN HAS
UNTRIED MATERIAL
FOR SUBSTITUTES
( AranoiatH Press ..eased Wlr)
EUGENE, Ore., Sept. 21. The
University of Oregon football tpnm
hasn't many weaknesses but the
one which stands out most of all is
its lack of reserve strength.
John J. McEwan, like all other
coaches. Is endeavorinc to build a
championship machine and barring
injuries may accomplish the trick
this year.
Coach McEwen will be able to
send an all-experienced eleven on
the field of battle but will be hard
pressed for capable substitutes in
cases of an emergency, especially
ai me guard and tackle positions.
The probable lineup against Pa
cific university next - Saturday in
.11 gene win ne staueiman, center;
Llllie nnd Shields, guards; Colbert
and Christensen, tackles; Archer
and Wood, ends; Kitzmilter, quar
terback; Moetler, fullback and Ma
son and Donohue, halfbacks.
Charles Williams, a negro veteran,
may get the cull over Donohue if
he recovers sufficiently from a ton
sil operation. All have had varsity
experience except Moetler, who
was out of school last year but who
is considered an "ace in the hole"
by McKwan.
Other than this powerful com
bination, the Oregon coach has lit
tle to draw from.

k v1 tf, V
Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mulhall In "Two Weeks Off."
What the ocean says to sad sea
waves, or the frolicsome surf whis
pers to the bathing beauty it loves
will be revealed at last. ,
Love vibrations wll be heard as
well as seen. The mating call of
the taxi-cab and the moans of the
pedestrian, together with other
noises innumerable, accompany a
rollicking film adaptation of Ken-
yon Nicholson's plav. "Two Weeks
Off," which is coming to the Ant
lers theatre Sunday.,
Dorothy Mackaill and Jack Mul
hall are co-featured, wllh Eddie
Grlbbon, Gertrude Astor, Kate
Price, Jnme3 Flnlayson and other
popular players in the supporting
cast.
Hitherto, in most sound pictures,
sounds that do not have signifi
cance In the action are barred. In
"Two Weeks Off" the sounds are
registered exactly as they are
heard In real life. Speech and the
sound of surf, the cacophony of
downtown city traffic and the hum
of the crowd furnish backgrounds
for the, action nnd dialogue of the
story.

mott-r, announced today that he Ik

and McCormick have been working
out regularly, and Corbett is show
ing up well. He has had consider
ably more experience than Maley.
who is new at the ame, and so
the shift has been made to give
fang a better match. Corbett wilt
have to give away considerable
weight to the Sutherlln boy, but he
still has the edge on professional
experience.

light heavyweight champion for
1928, who is to meet Jack Mc
Greer of Kansas City in the 10
round main event, is getting into
excellent condition. He is working

ning six miles every day to got In
shape for his bout.
Every- bout, except one, on the
card will be between fighters
weighing 145 pounds or more so

some hard slugging. The only lit
tle men on the card are expected
to furnish the fastest bout of the
evening. Jimmy Snell of Portland.
known as "Young Doc Snell," and
"Shrimp" McDonald of Lakevlew
will fight the 6 round semi final.
Both boys nre very clever and fast

clared E. S. Barnard. American

could do.
The Athletics made It a run
away race." Barnard raid. '"Ihey
have played such great ball we
don't see how any other club can
defeat them In a series.
We look for the A's to beat tho
Cubs. Both are great ball clubs, but
naturally I am backing my own
leaeue representatives. I tniiiK
Mack has the best team m the
business right now, and I believe l
can safely sav It will be the victor
in the series."
