, VARSITY SWINGS INTO LUST WEEK OF PRACTICE Team in Best of Condition but Not Over-Confident DOPE POINTS REAL BATTLE Two Complete Set of Backs Tuned up by “Shy” ( With a strenuous practice session last night the varsity swung into the last lap of the two weeks training that 1 will at its crest bear them into the | fray against the Aggies Saturday. The team is in excellent condition, the best condition that has been evinced all season, and the boys are confident, yet without that trace of overconfi dence that leadB toward defeat. They are confident, all of them, that they will give the Aggies a real battle, with an even ehancce to win. Small Margin Seen And an even chance to win is all that can be conceded, for although the Lemon-Yellow tied the Cougars 7-7 who in turn trimmed the Aggies 7-3 in their own bailiwick even the most confirmed statistician would have to admit that 4 points is a small margin on which to dope a winner especially a winner of the Oregon-Aggie contest. With the lowering of the Aggie stock by virtue | of the two defeats handed out by Stan ford and the Cougars and the rejuve- i nation of a supposedly weak Oregon as evinced by the great game played against the Cougars, the two teams would seem to be evenly matched and it will be “Oregon^ Fight” pitted against the “Fighting Aggies.” Two Sets of Backs Huntington is putting the finishing touches on two complete sets of backs. The combination of Latham at full, King and Johnson at the halves and Chapman at quarter has the call over the Jordan, Gram, DeArmand, Kein hart set and will probably start against the farmers. Billy Reinhart is again going strong after weeks of absence from the lineup and will likely be used part of the time as pilot. Gram and DeArmand two speedy men at half, are also practically certain of breaking into the game Saturday even if they j do not start. Len Jordan is being developed to j work as Latham’s understudy at full back for with King a fixture at half and “Tiny” Shields going a million at guard big “Hunk” Latham is the only fullback on “Shy’s” string, although King could be shifted to his old posi tion should it be necessary. Jordan looks good in his new position and is going good after a long layoff with an injured knee. MUTCH THRILLS AUDIENCE (Continued from page one) choice of opera songs. He sang the “Eri Tu che Macchiavi,” aria admir ably. This is one of the songs that occur in “A Masked Ball,” the opera in which Mr. Mutch and Mme MeGrew are to appear on next Friday and Satur day in Portland. As encore, he sang Tonio’s Prologue to “I Paglicci,” bringing to it a ripe understanding and interpretation. It has probably never before been as Vvell sung on the campus. The fourth group contained a Bur leigliized Swedish folk song, a typical Irish ballad, Burleigh’s, “Oh Didn’t it Rain,” always a favorite, and Lily Strickland’s, “Lindy Lou.” Recently this song received some criticism on the campus due to the manner in which it was sung by a visiting artist. Mr. Mutch coached with Lily Strickland, uTMi%3i'6/9/orisf’s
