Contest With Spruce Division May Be Accompanied By Underclass Men. Kincaid field wore a bleak and deject ed look this afternoon fur it was deserted for the first time during the season of the year for many moons. The Spanish •Influenza has ripped such a hole in the team that Coach “Shy” Until ton and Dean Walker, retiring graduate mali nger, thought, it best not to arrange for any contest this week-end. Next Saturday, however, “Tiek” Ma lar hy and his crew of Spruce Division will be in our midst and Ned Fowler, chairman of the .Junior committee on the undervlass mix, says that there may al lo k a real mix. Of course the “flu” may put a damper on the plans for the scrimmage between the l’rosh and Sophs hut if is expected that conditions will be near enough normal to permit .he staging of the festivity. Everyone Out By Next V/eek. The tea mis slowly getting assembled again after the ravages of the disease from Spain and by the first of next week ill of tile first string sipiad should lie out. tan unapmnn, i.ianuenuurg aim Clakn all expect to lie back into harness next week while ‘‘.Stuffin’’ Dresser will probably be relieved of hospital duty and so will be able to stay awake dur ing the practice hour. Dresser, who has been serving at the Fiji house from midnight until eight a. in , slept through practice Friday failing to wake until al most six o’clock. Itogcr Plummer, the terrible plunging half back from the Jefferson High, is sick with the “flu" in Portland. Plum mer was given leave by the military au thorities to go to bis home the first part of the wee!; and while in Portland he contracted the popular ailment. Layton, who played center during most of the game with Multnomah Club, is still laid up with a bum leg. Jt is hardly probable that he will be abb- to get into a uniform within a week. ('alii son, the Eugene high school star, who is taking his place at center, has been showing to advantage in practice and will fill in nicely if ijiyton is not able to play in the next, contest. Good Schedule Expected. Graduate manager Dean II. Walker, who leaves next week fur Camp Taylor, hopes to have all of tile schedule ar ranged before he leaves.

The Marines are still in quarantine and will remain so until the influenza has blown over. The idea of two games with Q. A* C. is a new one and is causing a great deal of comment upon the campus. Local foot ball “bugs” are wondering if the mili tary authorities will give a day leave so that the supporters of the team can make the jaunt to Corvallis. What ac tion tho authorities of O. A. C. will take has not become known. If a leave 'is granted. O. A. C. should be able to bring about three thousand loyal sons with her for the contest. The first game with the Aggies will he played here on November !• and the second contest will take place in Corval lis on the 16th. These are the two big games of the year and Oregon has a good chance to trim the Aggies if there is no further spread of the “flu.” Sections Will Be Flannel In Sorority Houses and Hen dricks Hall.
