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. J.

“They are a bunch of willing
workers,” was the only coniment
by Bob Mautz, captain of the
1825 varsity football team,
when asked for a statement on
the team last week. 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. Ore
gon’s veteran track mentor busy
for the past week. The early sea
around the track and indoor wrk
with the weights for all the track
men.
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. Bill finds
if of great value for it enaples him
to get ,a definite lineup on both
freshmen and varsity aspirants
whom he will have for the coming
season’s grind.
