who was stricken with mumps for
two or three weeks right off the reel,
and a green squad of about twenty
as a nucleus for a conference team,
with which to play veteran teams like
Washington, which did not lose a
man.
Combined with this handicap, Dud
ley’s Toss and Sharpe’s going stale
made the job doubly difficult.
Oregon played cleaner ball this
year than ever before. The old mot
to, “Hang ’em on the wall,” has been
banished and faster ball succeeded to
the place.
Next year promises to be brighter
for Oregon in this activity. Only one
man, Tom Boylen, will be lost to the
team, and Washington loses its main
stays.
