HAYWARD PLANS FIELD APPARATUS •Track Men Work Indoors for This Winter CALISTHENICS IN FAVOR Bill Estimates Character and Likes Effort (Continued from page one) the most fun; for Bill lias promised to rig up a recording instrument that will somewhat resemble the famed hammer-pounding rig of the road show. Bill says there will be no cigars given for those who ring the bell, but promises some inter esting contests for the pill battery. He hasn’t devised an apparatus for the javelin-throwers yet, and unless inspiration comes, they will evident ly have to continue their exercise out in the weather; but javelin throwers are not as temperamental as some of the stars in the other events, so they will not feel neg lected. High jumpers are also to have an opportunity to land on the vaulters’ big mat—that is, providing they are able to jump that high. Ap paratus work and chest weights mnro ronnm m on rlnrl tn t.hfi different aspirants. Bill has taught men ’so thoroughly in his long experience in coaching, that he reads most of them vory plainly. It isf interesting to watch his treatment of the different types as they come for practice in these hectic days be fore examinations. To one he will recommend, “Lay off until after the exams aro over find got grades.” To another it will be, “Get out there and run some of that fat off you; you can study better the harder you work.” Ono evening, when some of the men were joking with their coach, i they bantered him 1 to get or. tlie scales in a weighing competition. After kidding them awhile, Bill stepped on, and the bar balanced evenly at 190 pounds— easily 10 pounds more than any other man in the gymnasium at the time. “How do you keep in such good condition?” one husky asked him. “Calesthenics, boy; calesthenics,” he grinned. “I do tfhem every night and morning—have all my life; can’t sleep without^ them.” Then he proceeded to explain the value of calesthepies to some of his frosh track candidates. That same afternoon he showed one of the var sity wrestlers a couple of powerful leverage holds, laughing as he held the big fellow helpless with such seeming lack of effort. “I’ve been working on a tread mill with a kind of speedometer at tachment,” he grinned, “but I can’t get it just right yet. Some of these nights I’ll catch it though. Always think of things like that best at night.” Bill has been at Oregon a Tong time and has put out some famous track teams. There is little likeli hood of a championship team this spring unless Bill performs miracles; but then he has a fighting aggre gation working under him who have confidence in their coach—so this may be the year that miracles begin again. , TUL.ANE MEDICAL STUDENTS SEE TRUTH SERUM WORK Tulane University.—Medical stu dents lof Tu.lane University slaw “truth serum” tests demonstrated by Dr. R.

Bill Hayward --- Sport Chatter by MONTE BYERS With Huntington’s resignation accepted, very little chance of see ing Hugo Bezdek steam into Eugene on the Shasta, ditto Gilmore Dobie, rumors about Dick Smith and Andy Kerr, applicaeions received from coaches and more expected, we’ll settle back and await results. * * * What the cards will look like be fore they are shuffled remains to be seen. Several good men have turned in their applications for the job, and it will be the best man for the job. The athletic committee is going into the matter with the in tention of studying the men and get ting all the data possible. It is a sure bet that Oregon will get the best coach possible. * * * Hand it to the Navy for system. When the future admirals leave An napolis for the long jaunt westward and the tiff with the Huskies, they won’t have to worry about exams. They are busy now brushing up for the tilt with old Prof. Think and will take the quizzes before they leave. This will leave the Navy gridsters free to eat, talk and sleep football on the overland trip. W • % Fourteen lettermen and four sub stitutes just as strong will answer the football call at Princeton in 1924. Every position, except the tackles has a veteran to take care of it. Not so bad, providing all the men return. # * * Montana and Gonzaga are new sisters in the coast and Northwest conferences, respectively. Both look good and will furnish some oppo sition to the older members. Griz zlies and Bulldogs are both vicious animals to deal with and it is likely that their gridiron representatives c—---o “Chiropractic” [s the science of restoring health, through the nerves.

Gonzaga has loomed strong for several years and Montana is coming up fast. * * * Oregon didn’t get the game with Whitman at Pendleton this year. The game has been a drawing card for the University in the Bound-Up City during the last two years. This year we tackle the Missionaries o’n the home lot. Oregon takes two long jaunts next season, one lea*j to Palo Alto to scrubble the Bed Shirts of Stanford, a hard game, if anyone would ask you. The other road trip takes the varsity to Moscow to combat the Vandal horde, another big battle. Two trips like these are enough for a team. Whitman must not be considered lightly, as Borleske is one of the foxiest coaches in these parts. * * » Wrestling ought lo ,boom jhere this year. Benefiel has some good matches lined up for the bonecrush ers. A road trip takes the matmen to Moscow and Pullman. Washing ton and O. A. C. also tussle with the Lemon-Yellow grapplers, the Aggies twice. Every school on the schedule has a great crew of bonesmashers and it w-ill behoove the locals to get down to work as the season isn’t far off. * # # The day of the redskin is still here. One of the greatest athletes of history was a redskin. Jim Thorpe was a wonder man. Football, baseball and track were his main fortes and he was a topnotclier in all of them. In picking his all western football team, Walter Eckersall named Levi, Haskell In dian School fullback, on the mythi MiMmiiiHimiHiiimmiHiiiimiin'nmmiiiHiiiimiimiil cal eleven. Levi was the goods and delivered in all the contests. * # * Coach Frank and his Badger bas ketball squad loom on the horizon I as a dangerous gang of basket-shoot ers. Frank has a veteran squad this year in Captain Blackman, I Adams, Balcom, Jesse and Schneider. This looks like a neat combination, and with Frank at the wheel, will be heard from. Oregon tangles with the Badgers sometime during the coming hoop season. # * » Oregon gets two places on the mythical all-time- .all-star Sigma Nu football eleven. Dick Smith and Johnny Beckett draw the fullback and tackle assignments. Very few on the campus remember Smith’s work on the varsity. Four years of football here and Dick Smith went to Columbia and gave the Eastern fans an idea of far-Western foot ball. He was the first man from the west to be selected by Walter Camp on his all-American team. Johnny Beckett is of a later date. Up from Washington high in Port land, Johnny made the varsity with a bang, he was not only a great tackle, tijit a great kicker and pos sessed one of the nicest boots ever seen in coast football. He had a great year with the Mare Island Marines in 1917 and was instru mental in the defeat handed Oregon bf that aggregation from the Navy fara. He later had success as a coach of service teams. * * * The day of the two-legged caddie seems about over.
