Darker, I red "West, Pop Powell. • Oregon and Athletic* Oregon opens its football schedule Saturday. Since the last football season there have been many changes in the coaching staff. We have a new head coach, a new head line coach, a new assistant line coach, a new freshman eoacb, and three new assistant freshman coaches. While all these changes are made, we feel content that our athletic department still remains intact. Experience is a great teacher. The men at the head of athletics here have had many years of experience and now Oregon is reaping the harvest of their knowledge. Take our football schedule, for instance. Through the ef forts of Jack Benefiel, our graduate manager, and Virgil Earl, our athletic director, Oregon has the best arranged schedule of any”team in the Pacific Coast conference. We play five big conference games—with Idaho, Califor nia, Stanford, Oregon Aggies and Washington (in order named), yet our schedule has been so arranged that the team will have at least two weeks of rest before each of the big contests except the one with Stanford. No other conference team can boast of a schedule quite so favorable. Let’s take it from the scholastic standpoint. One of the ob jections that faculty members have to football is that it often times causes players to miss several days of school work while the teams are traveling. There should be little criticism on the part of the faculty this fall as Oregon will travel less than any other conference team. For the next few years Oregon will meet both California and Stanford on the gridiron. One game with each team will be played either in Eugene or in Portland and the other in California. Thus, people of Oregon are assured of seeing the California Golden Bears, picked by many critics of the west and east as the most powerful team in the United States, once every two years. No other northern conference team can boast of such a privilege except Washington. *** As things stand now, students and alumni of the univer sity can rest assured that every year our schedule will be so arranged that we will have as many big games on the campus as away from the campus. Some members of the conference have not been quite so fortunate. One year they get a flock of games on the home campus and the next they go begging for home games. We are assured of four big games* yearly—with California, Stanford, Washington and the Aggies. Our fifth game will include one year Idaho and the n<*:t Washington State. That means, of course, that we will never play Southern California or Montana on the gridiron. And, while we wish we could play the Trojans here, there seems to be no desire to journey to Los Angeles to face Southern California there, as our players could hardly be expected to relish 90 degrees in the .shade after the usual rainy and windy weather here. As a whole, Oregon stu dents have little to complain of over their schedule, w Within the next year the students will boast of a beautiful basketball stadium and then a palaeious student union build ing. Through the efforts of Dean Bovard, head of the physical education department, Mr. Beiiefiel, Director Earl and ex-Stu dent Body President Randall Jones, a successful campaign had been launched last year and money voted by the students to furnish these needs. The money was voted by the students because they had confidence in these “men of the hour.” Let's get behind the men who are moulding our athletic policies, and we shall be assured of a bigger and better Oregon —athletically.—W.

Fifty men were making Hayward Field look like a beehive under Bill Hayward’s training work later on in the afternoon. Men snapped at the word “Hike” and tore down the field. Bob’s statement characterizes the team this year for there is not a man of the fifty who is not putting forth every ounce of- his energy to d a place on the team. MANY ASPIRANTS OUT FOR TRACK HONORS Meet is Planned For October 31 Between Classes Begistration and issuing of suits for varsity and frosh track aspi rants has kept Bill Hayward.

The system of training used l>y Bill Hayward is an “All the year around’’ proposition. He starts the men t otraining in the fall and through easy work on the track and shoulder exercises in the gym nasium he brings the team around into condition by the time the weather permits outdoor workouts. Bill has not checked up on the men so far but he expects a large turn uot. Any man who thinks he can make a track man out of him self or would like to try should re port now in the outdoor gymnasium.^ A meet is planned for October 31 between the classes. This fall track meet has been an annual event on the training program.
