Scrimmage is Program for Football Men McEwan Putting Squad In Shape for Badgers On Saturday “Live Tackles” Used to Train Runners _ Spectators admitted to Hayward field on visitor’s day Wednesday saw Captain McEwan drive his regulars and subs through an afternoon of gruelling practice which ended in one of the toughest scrimmages on record this season. Another strenuous workout this afternoon and McEwan will have his grid warriors on a fighting edge for the Pacific contest Saturday. After the Willamette melee last week, the Badger game can be re garded as a practice tilt. Oregon will no doubt roll up another string of touchdowns, but the contest will serve to iron out the wrinkles and polish off the rough edges for the big game against the Huskies on October 9. This hurdle looms as the acid test of whether Oregon will take a place on a level with other colleges in the conference. Jones Doing Kicking There may be no rest for the wicked, but there is less for a foot ball player, as Gene Vidal, Ellinger and “Spike” Leslie hammered the backs and linesmen through an un relenting period of practice. Mautz kept his ends busy catching passes. Wetzel, Jones, and Fred Harrison vied with one another in kicking practice. The punting of the three backs was fairly consistent and av eraged over 40 yards. The forward pass is not being neglected by Vidal and Mautz. Woodie and Mim naugh doing the throwing, and the backs, Wetzel, Vitus, Jones, and Burnell, alternating with the wing men, Sherm Smith, Slauson, Pope, Greer, Jamison, Biggs, and Hughes, grabbing the pigskin out of the air, are becoming proficient in the aerial phase of the game. “Live Tackles” Used Under the leadership of Ellinger the entire squad went through a brisk series of calethetics, and that not sufficing, they circled the grid iron at a fast pace. “Live tackl ing,” with backs carrying the ball attempting to evade tackJers ar ranged across tho field in rows, su perceded the dangling canvas dum mies.

Far more material has turned out than ever before, according to Bex Underwood, director, but there is more material of ability on the campus that has not yet reported, especially among those who play the stringed instru ments. against Pacific university, but it will probably bo approximately the same that over-ran Willamette last week, with a few substitutions made.
