NUMBER 29
WEEK-END GRID
GAMES DECIDING'
Qregon-ldaho Conflict Will
Decide Leadership of
Northwest Conference
Contests at Pullman and
Seattle to Have Bearing
On Coast Championship!
With this week-end marking the
mid-way point in the season’s
gridiron race, the games scheduled
for Saturday are assuming para
mount importance.
The attention of all coast grid
fans will be centered on the big
game between Oregon and Idaho.
The winner of this tilt will auto
matically step into the lead of the
northwest conference. Coaches at
O. A. C. and W. S. C. will be much
interested to see if the strength
.evidenced by Oregon in their game
with the Huskies was more than a
flash.
This question will be clearly an
swered in the game at Moscow. •
Seattle Game Uncertain
On a par with the importance of
the Oregon-Vandal tilt, looms the
California-Wasliington contest at
Seattle this week-end.
The Washington team was mer
rily on its way to claim the pen
nant IF she could beat California,
when Oregon stepped in the Husk
ies’ way and made the northern
school postpone championship aspi
rations.
Nevertheless, should the Bears
check the Huskies, California will
have hopped one of the big hur
dles in the way of their claiming
their fifth successive pennant. If
Washington gives Andy Smith’s ag
gregation a good trouncing, Stan
ford will then probably have a
strangle hold on the top position of
the conference standings.
Washington Conceded Chance
Many sport critics give Wash
ington an excellent chance to turn
the trick on the Bears, as the defeat
handed to the Huskies by Oregon
last vreek, was just the jolt that
Bagshaw’s men needed to take the
over-confidence and cockiness out
of their outfit.
Of considerable interest to Ore
gon grid followers will be the out
come of the 0. A. C.-W. S. C. game
at Pullman. The varsity plays
both of these aggregations this
month, and whether they will prove
to be real stumbling blocks for
Maddock’s men will be indicated on
the calibre of game played by these
two squads today.
W. S. C. has Hard Schedule
Washington State nas had a
mighty hard time to break into the
win column so far. The Cougars
have plenty of material and Coach
Exendine has built up a really
formidable outfit. But the Pullman
team has had a difficult schedule
and have been unable to break
through. However, some team
seems about due for a decided set
back at the hands of W. S. C., and
whether the Aggies will fall vic
tims to the Pullman attack will be
known today.
Due to the break-up between IT.
S. C. and Stanford, the Cardinals
will remain idle over this week
end, but the Trojans have arranged

Varsity Debater is
Under Medical Care
After Big “Oskie”
Robert Creamer, varsity debat
er, put too much zip into a migh
ty “Oskie” at the Oregon-Wash
ington game last Saturday and is
now under treatment for a blood
clot on the brain.
As he turned loose the full
power of his lungs in a yell that
may have shaken the foundations
of Deady hall, a blood vessel in
his brain burst. Creamer at
tended classes until Thursday
noon when he was advised to drop
all activities for the time being.
He will probably be under medi
cal care for two weeks or more.

I George E. Love, commander of the
Eugene post of the American Le

seventh held in commemoration of
the cessation of hostilities of the,
World war, on November 11, 1918.
The R. O. T. C. unit is the larg
est uniformed organization in Eu
gene, and, writli its band playing and
I the colors flying, it is expected that
it will add an impressive touch to
the local ceremonies.
For several years past the R. O.
I T. C. has been well represented in
j Armistice Day parades. It is be
cause of pride in the accomplish
ment of our nation in the World
war, and out of respect for those
who paid the supreme sacrifice for
j their country, that the men have
! responded^so heartily to the Armis
tice parades, said Captain Frank L.
Culin.
There are over three hundred men
registered in the R. O. T. C. this
year. “Due to the enthusiasm
which is shown by the boys, we
hope to have more in the parade
| Tuesday than in the previous Armis
J tice Day celebrations, said Colonel
i Sinclair.
j He has requested that all stu
dents enrolled in the R. O. T. C. re
port to the barracks at 9:30 Tues
day morning, November 11, in or
der that they may be formed into
! units suitable for parading. The,
| men are requested to report in full
j uniform.
| EXTENSION PUPILS LIKE
POLITICAL SCIENCES

lar in the Portland center, of the

there. Nearly a hundred aTe regis
tered in the two courses.
Dr. Clark goes to Portland every
Wednesday to give his courses.
“Principles and Problems of Gov
; ernment,” is the title of one course,
and “Growth of Popular Govern
ment in the United States,” is the
other, in which sixty are registered.

“I set the alarm for G:00 and

To Students at Station

tured the rally held yesterday be
tween 1:15 and 2:00 p. m., to give
the football team an appropriate
send-off to the Oregon-Idaho game.

Eleventh, and thence, over the
usual route to the Oregon Eleetrie
depot.
lied by Ered Martin, yell Ring,
and his satff, the large body of stu
dents sent up cheer after cheer for
the raon who are to fight for Ore
gon and Oregon traditions. A bag
gage truck was borrowed from the
station, and from the top of this,
Joe Maddock, and Colonel Leader
spoke to the students. N
Joe Clives Talk
Joe was the first speaker up, and
he .told of Oregon’s chances to win
the coming game.
“I’m a little afraid of the out
come. This is the last year many
of the Idaho men will be able to
play on the football squad, and they
are out to make it count, but I
have confidence in our men. We’re
taking our time. We can only win
one game at a time, that’s all—
just one game at a time.”
Following his speech, Joe proved
his ability as a song leader as
well as a football coach. The com
position, one of his own' produc
tion, was first sung by himself and
then the studonts repeated the
verses after him.
The words are:
What have we done?
What have we done?
We’ve put the Huskies'on the bum
Tlmt’s what we’ve done.
What will we do?
What will we do?
We’ll do it to the Vandals too.
That’s what we’ll do.
Colonel Leader Speaks
“All we want to tell the boys is
that we cherish them,” were the
words *)f Colonel Leader. The Col
onel apologized for his lack of
voice on tho grounds that he had
not recovered from Saturday's
game.
“Never have I suffered as much
as 1 did in the last six weeks of
the last quarter,” Colonel Leader
said, referring to the game with
the Huskies, and then went on to
emphasize the fact that all Oregon
is back of the football players.
From the steps of the train,
“Dick” Reed, captain of tho team,
gave a few parting words.
“Idaho has never beaten Oregon
yet. and they aren’t going to do it
this time,” he said, and amid the
applause and cheering of the rally
ists, the train moved out of the
station.
After the rally, the freshmen,
were sent to repaint the “O” on
Skinners butte, which was- covered
with green “W’s. ’
