Oregon Daily Emerald VOLUME XXV-{UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1923NUMBER 44 FOOTBALL SOUAD PAODEDjOR FRAY: Hayward Devises Peculiar and Efficient Apparatus L for Protection of Men EAGLE EYE COWS MEN Bill as Trainer and Story Teller of Squad Keeps Fighting Blood at Top The members of the football squad will report at the gymnasium today at 12:30 o’clock. Now, they won’t go up there to hear pep talks or to brush up their clothes in prepara tion to appearing before the as sembled crowd; but they go for one purpose only and that is, to get ban daged and padded for the fray. Bill Hayward has long ago won his laurels as a conditioner and as a demon ddctor for putting injured men in fighing shape; but very little has been told of his harness mqking ability. He has a dozen different protections for old Joe Charley Horse, ranging from little rubber doughnuts to tin-covered shields; and his hip pads—well, he makes some of the females of 1860 look youthful and slender compared to one or two of his padded linemen who are protecting bruised hips. Has Variety of Tools Bill has a laboratory for scientific experiment that contains an assort ment of tools resembling the mixed kits of a burglar, doctor and a shoe maker. When a new problem con fronts him, be it a boil in a seem ingly unprotectable place, or cracked ribs or cauliflower ears or a sprained toe, he begins engineering a means of protection. Now Mir. Hayward doesn’t re semble Mr. Edison in his ability to do with out sleep—unless he is hunt ing—but he has several times put in a good share of the evening devising and constructing creations to meet the next day’s needs. There was one time in 1916 that the present line coach, Bart Spellman, unjointed a shoulder just before one of the criti cal games of the season. In those days Oregon didn’t have so many subs that she could afford to let even one good man grace the bench, so Bill went to work. The next day Bart appeared on the field sporting a creation of wood and iron that made one side appear as an exaggerated Fitzsimmons develop ment. It served to protect his wounded shoulder and became an of fensive weapon of such power that Bart continued to wear it until the Harvard coach protested against it and the officials asked him to use a more humane type of protection. Makes New Shoes Bill has devised special mud-plow ing cleats for the linemen that have (Continned on page fenr.) O.A.C.

With no veter ans of caliber, the varsity is going against two veteran teams from the Aggie and Vandal institutions. The Vandals have some fast men who have never been seon in action here and the Aggies have as a nucleus most of the men who rompe3 to vic tory over the Lemon-Yellow last year, namely, Walker, Graves, and Daniels. Idaho has a veteran outfit. The Vandals arrived Friday and had a chance to get used to the course. Since tho graduation of Walkley and Koepp, the varsity hill and dale team has had no first place men. Walkley never lost a first place dur ing his time at Oregon, but the var (Continued on pago three) AGGIES DECLARED FIGHTING DEMONS Rutherford’s Men Prepare to Throw Vast Strength in Fray Against Oregon HARD FIGHT EXPECTED Although All Dope Favors Varsity, Beavers Sure They Will Down Old Foe By Clifton Booth Sports Editor, O. A. C. Barometer The Beavers have found them selves I From a bunch of men, play ing mechanically, seemingly not over sure of themselves, the team has changed into, a group of hard-hitting, raw meat eating, fast going demons. The team is composed of a number of good players. Every one of them is above the average in ability. Bat in the gumes they have played this year, games resulting in losses for the Aggies with the exception of the 3 to 3 tie game with the Cougars^ Coach Rutherford’s men have seem ed to be listening for some hidden voice to bid them play better ball than they had before. Just before the game with the Cou gars, every man on the team heard that voice. It seemed to come to each individually and every one of the men on the squad has accepted the trust imposed upon him by that voice, the voice of his Alma Mater, to throw himself into the coming fray against the ancient enemy, Ore gon, with an abandon never before exhibited. No Boasts Made Each player has made a compaet with himself. Oregon must be de feated. Despite the record of former years, seasons in which the Lemon Yellow has emerged victoriously, the present team is firm in the convie tion that this is an O. A. C. year. No boasts are being miafle that the Orange and Black will snow the enemy under. Everybody realises that if the local colors float above those of the opposition, it will be only after a terrific battle and by the closest of scores. But the Aggie ) warriors found themselves in the game against Washington State. Going into the game with the CougarB doped to snow them under, the locals fought off every advance upon their goal line in one of the greatest exhibi tions of fight in the history of foot ball.
