Tie Remembered
Tiie Webfooters are still smart
ing under the 0 to 0 tie that the
Pacific battlers put up last year.
Tiie Badgers, like Oregon, are Tat
ed stronger than in 1020, and are
basing their potentiality on the
i line. Prom end to end, the line is
a solid row of veteran lettermen
who afforded the Bucks such a stone
wall countenance last saason. The
Badgers have never quite succeed
ed in defeating Oregon, but have
come mighty close on one nr two
occasions. They have decided that
this is to be the year for victory.
Emerson, all-northwest confer
ence quarterback last year, lias been
moved to half. TI<■ is fast and shif
ty, and has boon running wild in
scrimmage, ('each Leo Frank is
bringing to Eugene a quarterback
that rivals Whippet Ord in size
and speed. Tiie personage is the
flashy .Miller, a new comer on the
Badger outfit.
The Badger wing positions are
filled by two of the outstanding
ends of the northwest. Tucker is
a two year veteran, and Coach
Frank is confident that there will
be a dearth of end runs around his
side. Jngles on the other wing has
a reputation for speed,and is said
to bo a sure tackier.
The starting line-ups are as fol

After tlie nine football teams of
the Pacific const conference swing
into action today, the yearly sport
dopesters and annual predictors of
tlie league’s champion will have a
considerable larger amount of ‘data
(to figure with. In fact, it. will take
a very able mathematician.
In the northwest Washington
State Cougars meet the College of
Tdnho at Pullman. Bast year the
smaller school’s team was defeated
35 to 0; but can the Staters repeat?
In the first game of the season Mt.
lyt. Charles held them to a G to G tie.
The University of Montana Griz
zlies will face the Mount St. Char
les team at Missoula. Can they do
better than a 0 to G tie! The Uni
versity of Idaho Vandals will match
their strength with the Montana
State eleven. This Montana Aggie
team will have to have improved a
great deal more than what they ex
hibited last year if they expect to
beat Charley Erb’s proteges.
Seattle will see the University of
Washington Huskies engaged in two
gridiron conflicts. A 'navy team
from Bremerton will form opposi
tion in the first tilt, and the Wil
lamette University Bearcats for the
second. Last year the Purple and
Gold performers defeated the Navy
team, 20 to 0, and the Willamette
collegians, 28 to 0. It must also be
remembered that Oregon, defeated
Willamette, 44 to 0, while Washing
ton took the Webfoots down the
line, 23 to 9.
For the first time in history, the
Oregon Aggies will meet the Cali
fornia Aggies at Corvallis. The
strength of the Aggies is pretty well
known, while the southern farmers
haven’t made much of an impres
sion. Last year they were defeated,
21 to 0, by tlie University of Mon
tana, while the Montanians had a

■ Oregon’s igame with Pacific today
should .go a long ways in compar
ing the strengtli of tlie 1027 team
with that of 1920. Last year’s bat
tle ended in n 0 to 0 tit.
“Pop” Warner’s Stanford Cardi
nals will face a real test today at
Palo Alto when he sends his charges
against the fast St. Mary’s eleven.
Last year the Catholic grirlsters
defeated the University of Califor
nia, 20 to. 7, while Stanford" was
content with a 41 to 0 victory over
the Bears. Today’s, conflict is the
first of the season for St. Mary’s,
lint marks the second for the Red
Shirts. The San Francisco Olympic
club eleven was barely beaten, 7
to 0.
The University of Southern Cali
fornia Trojans will probably nurike
merry at the expense of the Santa
Clara eleven at Los Angeles. Last
year Mr. Morton Kaer and liis team
mates ran rough shod over Walsh’s
pupils, 42 to 0.
“Nib” Price’s Golden California
Bears, who are reputed to be much
better than last season, will meet
the University of Nevada pigskin
toters at Berkeley. The 1020 con
flict went to California, 20 to G,
being one of the three Bear vic
tories for the season.
Well, fans, there you have it in

Eastern Oregon
Unfolds Beauty
To Professor
Flora, Museum Specimens,
Gathered At Owyhee
River Section
Prof. L. F. Henderson, research
fellow in botany amid curator of the
botany museum, is busily at work
classifying and placing in the her
barium in Deady hall material which
he collected during the summer’s
work in Malheur and Harney coun
ties.
Professor Henderson left for his
summer’s trip on the 10th of last
March, stopping in Portland to ta;lk
before the Audubon and Mazama;
societies on the botany of Eastern
Oregon. lie went from Portland, to
the field of his summer’s work,
most of which took place laronnd the
Owyhee river and the Steens moun
tain in Malheur and Harney coun
ties.
“I think Leslie Gulch that opens
lip into tlie Owyhee canyon from
the east is in beauty, color and
rock sculpture equal to tlio Grand
canyon,” said Professor Henderson
in commenting on t^je natural
scenery of his field of collection.
He mentioned the great Owyhee
project which was to build a dam
some 1100 feet in height which would
raise water sufficiently high to ir
rigate farms 50 and 00 miilcs from
the dam. He also held the opinion
that the main highway to the east
would bo through this section when
the new dam opened the land to
denser settlement.
The summer’s work constitutes
the second tour Professor Hender
son has made for the University to
collect flora and museum specimens,
and his work will bring a valuable
addition to the University herbar
iums when classifications are com
pleted.

Blind man’s buff
Remember the game? A handkerchief over your eyes
your hands searching for someone, feeling blindly
over features your eyes could so easily kno<v. It seems
foolish—deliberately to blindfold yourself and go search
ing. You wouldn’t blindfold yourself deliberately when
you start out in search of purchases that help make life
a game.
If you read advertisements first, you are spared the
doubts and mistakes. Advertisements take the handker
chief off your eyes. They equip you with* keen vision.
They lead you direct to the shaving cream that will give
most freshness to your skin, to the most tempting clothes,
to the sparkling drinks most pleasing. Thay put in your
hands familiar good things guaranteed to please.
You can’t afford to buy under a blind man’s buff. Read
the advertisements to avoid the blindness— and the buff.
Don’t overlook these today.
Advertisements help you
find the best there is to find and
know it when you find it.
