Yearling Team Practices
With Varsity Eleven
YEAR’S PROSPECTS GOOD
Preliminary Match Listed
For Coming Saturday
Because a game with the Univer
sity FrosTi grid team would be
against their school rules and reg
ulations, the Chemawa Indian
school has called off the (game
which was scheduled for tomorrow
afternoon. This was to have been
the initial game of the frosh foot
ball season.
Hard work has been the meat of
the Yearling team the last couple
of rveeks under the coaching of
Spike Leslie, and the training is
beginning to show itself in the
form of __ a good looking line-up.'
Their daily practices with the var
sity eleven are proving them to
have the^tuff good teams are made
of, and a stiff battle is predicted
for their first game.
Although graduate manager (Tack
‘ Bencfiel is trying to schedule a
game with some other school, thp
date at which the game was called
off may make such arrangements
impossible. In such a case there
will be a preliminary game between
the Frosh and the Second team
proceeding the game Saturday, be
ginning at 1:30 and consisting of
four ten-minute quarters.

With Varsity; Teamwork is
Badly Needed, Says Coach

tors on the field state that work
like this reminds them of the days
when Bezdeck, famous 1916 coach,
use to drive the men up and down
the field until long after the sun
had set. When a man is through
wokirng in the line he. is shifted
to the bucking machine and under
the tutelage of Boc Stegeman is
shown the method of hitting and
shoving forward without stopping.
“Let’s go, dig, dig, and dig,” are
the words from Stegeman as the
n%n start down the field, with the
machine trying to hold them, hack.
Coach Leslie of the babe aggre
gation has put fight into his frosh
aggregation which is the equal of
the older and more experienced var
sity men. The yearlings go into
the scrimmage with every thing
they have and take all the first
team can give. The men show the
results of Leslie’s qoachijng and;
are always on the move. Compe
tition for places it going on in the
first year ranks and with the ma
terial on hand it looks like a big
freshman football year.
DICK SMITH RECALLS FOOTBALL
AS PLAYED AT COLUMBIA IN 1903
Oregon Grid Mentor Aims to Develop Team Play- Instead of
Bringing Out Stars in Coming Season
> *‘1 played football in 1900 to I
1903 just after the ‘flying wedge
was ruled out and |he “guards !
back’’ play came into use. That
was the newest thing in football at
that time and the first team to use
it walked right through their op
ponents before a defense was per
fected. •
“In the “guards back” play,
two heavy guards (guards were
heavier those days than now) came
back and the two guards lined up
in the baekfield. The three
backs and the two guards lined up
one behind the other and the ball
was snapped to one. The ball car
rier grasped the man in front of
him and the men behind united to
push him through. It was a. steam i
roller at first which was unbeat- i
able until some of the offense
dove under the play and spill
ed the whole line of backs and
guards, often being packed off the
field in consequence.’’
Dick Smith is a storehouse of
football lore. The reporter listen
ed for two hours to Dick’s live talk
on football, Thirty years of foot
ball has been his record. He began
back in 1896 by playing for Oregon
and then for Columbia. Since then
he has taken an active interest in
the game. He has seen it develope
from the crude mass formations and
the piling up plays to the present
highly complex battle between of
fense and defense. He has followed
, football and he knows it. Last year
before that memorable Washington
game he helped put the team into
fighting shape. Dick Smith is
about the most colorful football
coach that Oregon has ever had.
From 1901-1903 he played full
back for Columbia. It was there
that he was solected by Wullter'
Camp on the All-American team.
He was recognized in the East for
two years as the most outstanding
fullback, despite the fact that any
man who did not come from Yale,
Harvard or Princeton had to show
wonderful form to make the All

American. The days of intersec
tional football had not come. Teams
in the middle west and west were
undeveloped; football centered on
the big eastern teams.
Those were the days when men
who played were big; big and fast.
Backfield men were very large;
guards averaged around 210 pounds
in the eastern schools. It was a
mass game with no passes or varia
tion from bucking and end runs.
Dick Smith weathered eight years
of the hardest kind of football;
football that was far more wearing
and tearing that it is now. It was
football that was about as destruc
tive and vicious as the old flying
wedge.
Dick Smith is an organizer. He
is quiet and he encourages the men.
He drives in a different manner,
than the “hard boiled’’ coach. A
big, brawny, quiet tempered man—
he works smoothly and gets results.
He inspires the respect of every
one with whom he comes in eon
tact.
“The biggest thing in a football
team,” Dick said at the end of the
interview, “and the thing I want
most of all to put across before the
coming season starts, iB the spirit
of the team. It's no one man team.
Oregon 'a team this year will got
he a one-man team. No stars are
going to shine above the rest. If
a man makes a touchdown the team
should be thanked for giving him
the chance. His interference, the
men who bore the brunt of the of
fense, deserve the credit. It’s the
whole team playing football that
makes winning teams. ’ ’
