A Noteworthy Grid Schedule
OREGON has been extremely lucky in its football schedule
for next fall, and, in a way, not so lucky. Five major
games are on the program, and these five with the best teams
in the Pacific Coast conference. Thus Oregon will have a chance
at the coast title, and if she succeeds in taking it, no one can
dispute it, that’s certain.
But it is a hard schedule, and it means that the football men
will have to come back early and work hard. The opening game
is with Idaho, October 10, but there is this great, very great
advantage—it will be a home game. ■The early season bugaboo
will be sprung, of course, but this again will work to Oregon’s
advantage. The varsity will put a team in the field next year
that has already had a season’s experience, which means that
a repetition of this year’s slow start is not to be expected.
Then, with a practice game slipped in between, the Varsity
will play California at Portland, .October 24. This is early, too,
but late enough so that the men should be thoroughly seasoned.
This California-Oregon tussle, the first in years, will be watched
with keen interest by everyone on the coast, and it will deter
mine definitely whether the Webfeet are in the class of the
Southerners. Here it will be a battle of Oregon fight against
an array of great talent.
The following Saturday, October 31, the Oregon team will
play Stanford at Palo Alto. Thus two factors, a hard game the
week before and a long jump into a different climate, will work
against the varsity, but should California be beaten, the momen
tum might carry the team over the Stanford goal line.
The next two games come in fine time. O. A. C. comes to
Eugene November 14, and the final game is in Seattle, against
the Husky eleven, November*21, or on Thanksgiving Day.
Taken all in all, the schedule is one of the best in years, and
what is also a notable point, it looks as though it will be a suc
cess financially. The Idaho game will be a good opener here,
the California game is sure to draw a capacity crowd at Port
land, the Palo Alto game always pays, and the homecoming
game, with 0. A. C., is always a great drawing card. Also, no
one ever loses money at a good game at Seattle, and next year
it might happen that that contest will be the deciding one in
the conference.
With ten lettermen back, a coaching system coached by a
coach that knows his business and has the confidence of every
one, a good schedule, and the support of all Oregon followers,
one of tlje greatest football seasons in history oan be looked for.
Doughnut Sports Resumed
r\OUGHNUT athletics are again attaining the plane upon
which they belong. Intra-mural activities of this type
should tend' to build up the morale of the student body. Their
main purpose is to give the students an insight of the game as
it is played by the various varsity teams. This form of sport
brings out many individuals for the Varsity that might other
wise never turn out. If a man has a chance to play with men"
of a more or less mediocre ability and finds that he has chances
for the varsity, goes out and makes the squad, the team has
gained’, the school has gained, and the man has gained.
Doughnut sports have broken away from the championship
idea. It is formulating the idea that the best team wins by
fighting clean and giving their opponents a sporting chance.
The Leagues motto will be, “Better spirit, of play, clean
sportsmanship and help the varsity.” After all, the champion
ships should be for the Varsity teams only.—R. L. G.
Freshman Co-ed Gives New
Version of Grid Game
Brutal Playing Is Chastised by
Well Known Writer
(The (iiime as reported to Joseph
Brill, critic.)
Our dear boys lined up and decid
ed to kick off. Little Louie was too
polite to take undue advantage and
merely gave the ball a gentlemanly
push. What do you think—those
rowdy Pinkcrvilles took the ball to
our ten yard line before wo could
persuade them how unaltruistlc
they were. Bobby could hardly re
strain himself from slapping his op
ponent but took time out instead.
On the next play Willie called the
Pinkerville captain a Billy goose,
and the brutal opponent pulled his
nose. The Pinkerville team was pen
alized fifty yards (the umpire real
izing the injustice of the bliiw).
On the next play the Pinkerville
team began to catch the sportsman
like spirit which actuated our boys
and offered to allow us a touch
down. Wo refused, however, and
carried the ball to their eighty yard
line instead. This deeply affected
the Pinkerville team and they sould
be heard audibly praying for the
safety and victory of our team.
Nothing could stop us, however, and
we soon had the ball on our five
yard line. At this point the Pink
ervilles threatened to forfeit the
game unless we immediately scored
a touchdown. We refused point
blank. That brutal Pinkerville cap
tain then boxed our little Johnnvs
ears and this beautiful exhibition
of sportsmanship ended uf> in a
fight.

tion that has trod a gridiron for a
decade or more.
Chicago Takes “Big Ten”
Chicago won the title in the Big
I Ten race, without a setback. The
defeat of the sensational ,‘Red”
Grange and his Illinois eleven by
i the scrapping Minesotans prevented
iZuppke from duplicating his feat
I of the previous year.
The Missouri Valley Conference
title was won by Missouri Univer
sity by defeating and eliminating
! Drake and Nebraska. Colorado took
I the honors in the Rocky Mjountain
j Conference for the second straight
year. Williams won the title irf the
“Little Three’’ by overcoming
Brown.
Centre College, of Kentucky, a
sensation a few years ago sprang
Iback into prominence with the chief
j claim to the championship in the
South. Centre defeated both Ala
bama and Georgia, who were pre
viously the two recognized strong
est contenders for the title. The
“Praying Colonels’’ are not a mem
ber of the conference howver so
their claim rests chiefly on public
opinion.
The season was punctuated by nu
merous upsets in the accepted grid
dope. Chief among them were the
defeat handed Illinois by Minnesota,
Princeton’s startling show of form
in overwhelming Harvard, and the
defeat of Rutgers, previously un
beaten and a contender for the Eas
tern honors, by Charley Moran’s
little Bucknell eleven in the former’s
final game of the season. Three long
winning streaks were shattered in
j the maze of form reversals. Ili
1 nois seemed on the road to a sec
ond straight undefeated season un
til it met Minnesota. Cornell, un
beaten for three years, had its leng
thy streak broken by Williams, and
also by Dartmouth and Pennsylva
nia. Marquette University with four
years of unbroken victories to its
credit was finally humbled by
Creighton.
Orange Greatest Player
Among the individual stars
Grange of Illinois stood out head
and shoulder above the rest. How
ever, Koppisch of Columbia; Pond
of Yale, Wilson, Hewitt and Gar
bisch of the Army; Crowley, Lay
den, Miller, and Stuhldreher, of No
tre Dame; Cuddeback of Stanford;
and Horrell of California can be
numbered among the most sensa
tional players of the country. There
were many others whom we cannot
name because of lack of space. The
football season just past can be
ranked hs one of the most succesful
ones in gridiron history.
