Newspaper Clippings Give
Data Concerning Famous
Oregon Players
How would Oregon’s football play
ers of today stack up in comparison
with the men who represented her on
the gridiron ten years ago? Critics are
not lacking who voice the opinion that
the game has deteriorated and that
football players of today could not
stand against the men who played in
the “good old days,” when the game
was a trial of brute strength and en
durance and when science and strat
egv played a subordinate part.
An Emerald reporter recently discov
ered an old album containing clippings
from all the leading papers of the
northwest which gave accounts of near
ly every athletic contest in which Ore
gon has engaged since 1904. One of the
most remarkable of these clippings was
from a paper of about ten years ago,
naming a first and second all time all
Oregon team, selected by the leading
authorities of the Northwest. The sig
nificant point about the teams selected
was that, with one or two exceptions,
the men were among the earliest of
Oregon’s gridsters, most of them play
ing during the period between 1895
and 1905. The two teams, as copied
from the article are as follows:
First team:
Center—Hug (’04, ’05, ’06)
Guards—Edmundson (’94, ’95, ’96)
Shattuck (’94, ’95)
Tackles—Pinkliam (’06, ’07, ’08, ’09)
.Takway (’98, ’99, 1900)
Ends—Moores (’04, ’05, ’06, ’07)
Coleman (’95, ’96)
Quarter—E. C. Latourette (’08,
’10, ’ll)
Halfbacks—Smith (’97, ’98, ’99, 1900)
Clark (’06, ’07, ’08, ’09)
Fullback—Kerron (’03, ’04, ’05)
Second team:
Center—Thayer (’01, ’02, ’03)
Guards—Moullon (’05, ’06, ’07, ’08)
Wilson (’97, ’98)
Tackles—Bailey (’09, TO, ’ll, ’12)
Earl (’02, ’03, ’04, ’05)
. Ends—Chandler (’03, ’04, ’05, ’06)
Quarter—J. R. Latourette (’03, ’04, ’05,
’06)
Halfbacks—F. Templeton (’04, ’05)
Taylor (’07, ’09, TO)
Fullback—McKinney (’03, ’05, ’06)
The two Latourettes who were chosen
as quarterbacks were brothers, “Sap,”
the younger, being selected over Jack,
his big brother. “Dick” Smith, select
ed as one of the first halfbacks, played
at Columbia after leaving Oregon, and
was later named by Walter Camp on
his all-American team. Gordon Moores,
one of the ends, was also named on this
mythical eleven. Many of the men play
ed before the freshman ineligibility
rule was enacted.

STATE LAWMAKERS QUITE
HUMAN SAYS STUDENT

tors, but for their heavy shoes. And
not shoes placed as children place theirs
before the fireplace at Christmas time.
No—shoes still holding part of the an-j
atomy of their wearers. It is a com
fortable way to sit.
It may at times be hard to control
oneself, but it is not considered ethical
to applaud, if one is sitting in the sen
ate as one of the audience. It is rather
embarrassing to the disturber when the
sergeant-at-arms hushes him.
When a page comes forward in the
aisle with a handful of telegrams on
the last day of the session, and the leg
islators read the messages with an un
concerned air, the observer knows that
something is about to happen. Perhaps
the bill will pass after all! %
Newspapers are a good shield, speak
ing in a material way. The legislators j
open them up and read the inside pages
—always professing deep interest in the
inside pages—while their opponents are
speaking. But once in a while a wra- j
thy voiee will shout “Put down your
aper.” And if the person thusly ad
ressed is sufficiently irritated he may
eply “You’re not saying anything any
ray.” And the debate will continue.
Lobbyists wear a tired, eager look,
’hey are kept just as busy, if not bus
er, than the legislators themselves.
5ut what kind of laws would there be
f it were not for this “third house”?
Some few legislators stand firmly on
ne ground—they vote “no” on every
oil call but the one at the opening
f the day’s sessions.
Committees are apparently a neces
arv part of legislative procedure. But
t times one is led to think “Why have
hem?” They may study measures
lioroughly, receive opinions and sug
gestions from both sides, even ask the
idvice of experts along some lines, and
hen the houses will not accept'their
-erdicts. That sort of action of course
urnishes smaller bodies with renewed
•im.
There is a striking similarity between
he session of the legislature and a term
in the campus. Possibly it is a charac
eristic of human nature and that is
vhy it appears in so many activities.
Che most important term papers, the
nost important reading, and the cram
ning for examinations goes until the
ast few days. In the same way the
nost important bills, and action on
nost of the bills, is left until the last
'ew days of the legislative session. Ev
irybody quits with heavy rings under
he eyes.
HEATING PLANT BURNS
TWENTY CORDS DAILY
Hans Discussed for New Location
Because of Fire Hazard
in Present Place
The University heating plant, stand
ng back of the sociology building,
purns during the winter months about
10 cords of wood a day, but now that
;he weather is warmer consumption will
pe less. The wood costs about $4.00 a
'ord, making the daily expense for fuel
done about $80.
Four men are employed, three of
whom work steadily, while one is a
■elief worker.
The plant consists of five boilers,
:wo of which have been in operation
lor 21 years. The plant has its own wa
:er supply and furnishes hot water for
■ampus buildings and the two gym
lasiums. It heats all the University
ouildings, including the halls of resi
lence, the gymnasiums, and the Univer
sity high school.
The state fire marshal pointed out the
rreat fire hazard in having this plant
with its equipment, so near the other
’ampus buildings, and plans for a new
plant in a more favorable location are
being discussed.

FROSH QUINTET WILL
CLASH WITH COLUMBIA
Yearlings To Play Two Games
This Week-End
Tho prevailing good weather with its
silent call to the outdoors; its lure to
the tennis court; its thrill for a canoe
and the mill race, may have caused
many to forget the indoor sport of
basketball. Not so with the freshman
hoop squad. The yearling exponents of
the. court face 10 more days of practice
with the leather pellet and four more
stiff contests before they can call it
quits for the season.
The first two of the four remaining
tilts come this week-end when the frosh
will entertain the Columbia university
quintet of Portland in a duo of games,
Friday and Saturday afternoons. On
the following week-end the babes will
end the season with games against
Franklin and Washington high schools.
From the way they performed in the
final game with Salem high last Sat
urday, it is not going too far to pre
dict that the 1926 five will finish the
term’s playing without suffering anoth
er defeat. Columbia university is re
ported to have a strong prep team but j
her record is no more impressive than \
was Salem’s and the yearlings had ev
erything their way in the last game
with the Cherry city lads, although they
had a hard fight to take the first game.
In these two tilts the frosh were sup
posed to be weakened by the absence
of Scriptures at one of the forward
positions. The prospects are that Scrip
tures will be back in harness in the
rest of the games, so that if their
strength increases proportionately the
dope is very bright indeed.
The games with the Portland high
school fives should not be hard ones
for the frosh defeated both quintets
earlier in the season.
