YEARLINGS NEED CONTEST
TO PUT THEM IN FORM
Frosh Have “The Old Fight”
But Lack Unity
GAME SET FOR NEXT WEEK
First Game With Mount Angel
Here Next Saturday
“Which is the first team?” asked
Coach Baz Williams of a bystander
watching the frosh scrimmage.
“I don’t know. Which Is?” he re
plied scratching his head.
Nip and tuck the frosh grldsters bat
tle back and forth, neither squad show
ing any advantage over the other. The
old fight is there, but the men lack the
unity necessary to a good team. While
the interference gets in the road of the
play now and then, and somebody drops
the ball, and someone gets the signals
balled up, on the whole they are im
proving all the time. The stuff is
there, but a little more time will be
required to bring it out and get an ef
ficient scoring machine going.
New Man Out For End
Another addition has been made to
the contestants for an end position in
the person of Hitchcock. While he is
light he knows the game and in prac
tice he looks like a star. He is a
Washington high graduate, having
.iayed there before the war. Haak is
‘towing up well at quarter, his weight
il 180 pounds giving him some advan
tage over other members of the back
field. Sutton looks like a comer. He
aas the ability to pick the best holes
in the ranks of the enemy, making good
yardage in practice.
For the most part the men coming
out are in good condition. With the
exception of King, who is laid off with
a dislocated shoulder, the injuries are
Blight. Some of them have sprains and
bruises, but nothing serious.
Experience Much Needed
What the yearlings need is a game.
Some of them scarcely know what to
look for. They do not know what they
can do. They need to find themselves.
The coaches can tell them, but they
must learn through much-needed ex
perience. Baz says he can make them
fight if nothing else, and believes they
will get going, though it is slow, hard
Aork. Only a few plays have been
nrried through to the satisfaction of
coaches thus far this season.
1 he game with Mt. Angel is only a
ef k off and then the freshmen will
a> f the opportunity to show what they
do under fire.
MORE JOBS THAN MEN AT
‘T EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
Many Already Have Paid All
Expenses in College
The employment question remains a
problem of no small size, according to
“Mother” Donnelly at the Y. M. C. A.
“Hut”, who says that the demand for
men to do odd jobs is now in excess of
the supply. With the opening of the
University many more men applied for
work than there were places for, but
at the present time paid all their ex
penses this year through odd jobs se
cured through the “Y” employment
service, and there are many others who
could follow their example.
Men who gave their names, addresses
and phone numbers to the “Y” office
should not wait to be called up, says
Mrs. Donnelly. In the majority of
cases it has been found impossible to
reach these men by telephone, either
because the students have moved, or
for other reasons. Those who desire
to work at odd jobs are urged to come
into the hut the first thing in the
' mornings, at the noon-hour, or at any
other vacant period they may h^ve, and
tell Mrs. Donnelly what hour during
that day they can work. In many cases
jobs will already be waiting for the
men when they come in, and if not,
their names will be held until work
comes in for them. Any men, there
fore, who desire to keep busy during
their spare time, should get into the
habit of dropping into the “Hut” once
or twice a day to find out what there
is to do.
Just at this time of the year an un
usually large number of odd jobs are
coming in, and for the most part they
are ones whieh must be filled immedi
ately. The work available now includes
putting in wood, digging potatoes,
picking apples, cleaning up yards, and
similar jobs, which people desire to get
out of the way while the good weatheT
lasts.
The “Y” has been trying to raise its
employment standards this year, both as
to filling jobs promptly and as to send
ing men out who will do the work in an
acceptable way. So far this poliey has
been meeting with great success, and
there is a considerable improvement
ever last year. The amount of work
available to students in the future will
depend on their co-operation now in
doing it promptly and efficiently. The
people of the town have shown a great
deal of interest in turning in all the
work they have to the “Y,” and thus
giving University students the first
•hanee at it.
TEAM SENT NORTH WITH
GREAT STUDENT OVATION
Thundering Thousand Joins In Early
Morning Bally At Depot For
Departing Gridsters
Oregon's mighty-toned, “Thundering
Thousand'' and many loyal feminine
baekers sent the varsity foot ball team
and coaches off at 7:25 yesterday morn
ing on the north-going Oregon Electric.
To show their loyalty to Oregon 's grid
iron battlers, who meet the University
of Idaho’s football team on Multnomah
field in Portland this afternoon, the
“Thundering Thousand” gave the var
sity yell, the team yell, the individual
yell, the “spell it” veil, and, just as
the Oregon Electric departed, an
“Oskey” of great magnitude.
At the depot, repeated calls of “We
want Shy,” “We want Bart,” and “We
want Howard” resulted in brief ad
dresses by Coach “Shy” Huntington
and Captain Howard. “Shy” and Cap
tain Howard both said that they were
going to fight and it wouldn’t be their
fault if Oregon didn’t get Idaho's scalp.
The close-preseed ralliers cheered these
talks. Looking out of the car windows,
Oregon’s football men took in the rally
calmly.
Early yesterday morning, even before
day dawned, loyal rooters began to as
semble in front of the library. Or
ganized by Yell King Oberteuffer and
his assistants, they commenced the hike
to the Oregon Electric depot. Men
! formed the lines on both outer sides
of the parade and the women filled the
center in two lines. Augmentations
were made at practically every corner
of fraternity and sorority groups and
individuals, and when the fountain at
the foot of Willamette was reached, the
parade was composed of well over 1000
individuals.
Rooters caps were worn—and rain
coats for protection against the storm.
Yell King Oberteuffer and his under
studies directed the marchers.
