Price’s Team Not Equal of Andy Smith’s Lorn, Evans, Newman and Eisan Fast, but Slower Than Former Backs Change from Turf May Slow Up Bears Clymer Distance Punter But Starts Slow By JACK O’MEARA, Former Assistant Sports Editor Oregon Daily Emerald. Berkeley, Cal., Oct. 14.—(Special) —The California Golden Bears may be the “mystery team” of the 1927 football season, but they are not the re-creation of Andy Smith’s “wonder teams.” Oregon rooters who remember the California-Ore gon game of 1925 will recollect the dazzling speed of Bull Young, Per rin and Tut Imlay. Loni, Evans, Newman, Eisan and Marcus are fast men, but they do not compare with the famous back fields of Smith’s. Price’s new back field formation which is appro priately worked out for the backs oil this year’s team, allow a Variety of plays, but the favored one in the St. Mary’s game and which failed to gain appreciably against the Gaels, were the end runs from punt formation with Lorn, Clymer or Breckenridgo back. Rain Better for Oregon Should the Portland gridiron be rain-soaked, the Bears will find it difficult to attain any speed in skirting the ends, as the distance from punt formation to the wings will allow for the possibility of a Webfoot forward to break through and get the runner from behind. If the line functions properly and takes the Bear linesmen out of the way in a quick charge, the ball car rier will have little or no protection from behind. California is not used to playing on' anything move slippery than the close cropped turf, which isi thin enough to allow a firm foothold on the earth, and will find themselves in a new element in the Multnomah 1 stadium—which is a homelike atmo sphere for the Webfooters. May Plunge Line Price may choose to buck the line with It. Dougcry or Barr carrying the ball. Dougery is one of the hardest hitting fullbacks in .Cali fornia. He had to be to penetrate the Gaels’ line, but in all proba bility the Bear mentor ivill use the plays he has drilled into his grid sters for the last few 'weeks. 'Dougery was fairly successful in his forward passes to Phillips, who is a sure receiver and speedy in getting down the field for a pass, lie is heavy and this coupled with his swift shiftiness makes him a dangerous man in the open. Simas or Merrick 'were unable to run back punts for ’more than five - yatrdjs whenever Phillips was clear to stop them. Clyrner Best Punter Clvmer’s punting will be a big defensive factor for California, but while he boots the oval for distance lie is slow in getting his kicks off. Oregon may be fortunate enough to block one or more where a blocked kick may count the most. On the other hand, Blewctt, Phillips and J. Dougery will make the Oregon punter hurry his kicks. But if Oregon fight flames out next Saturday as it has in the past, and McEwan’s offensive is well polished, with a defense which will not crumble in the crucial moments, thmi California may take the sec ond defeat in two years at the hands of the Webfootcrs.

Fred Michelson, Leon Byrne, to Start on World Tour Newspapermen Prominent In University Affairs “Journalistic opportunity is ex ecllcnt in California providing you are a native son or have exceptional ability,” was the comment of Leon Byrne ex, ’25, and Frod Micfielson, eat, ’23, who arrived in Eugene Fri day afternoon cn route for Port lland where they will spend a few \days before starting on ft ’round the-world tour to be gone'tWo years.

Miller, University physician, is the author of an article failed “Off to College,” which ap pears in the October ‘number of Hygeia. In this article Dr. Miller stresses the importance of a health program in every institution of learning. Parents should take an interest in the matter, he says, and before sending their sons and daughters away to college should ascertain Whether or not there is any pro vision made for the sick student. Institutions that do not give phy sical examinations and offer dis pensary and infirmary service arc now the exception rather than the rule, Dr. Miller savS, and students are now often better taken care of and lead more hygienic lives at school than they do at home.

In the feature match of the afternoon, Brad Harrison, diminutive .tennis star of California, and holder of more titles than Zbysko has medals, teamed with Sherman Lockwood, singles champion of the University, crowned in Wednesday’s match, de feated Henry Neer and Clare Hart man, Coach Abercrombie’s pick for the Mo. 1 doubles team last spring. Next Tuesday afternoon at 3 o’clock Harrison and Lockwood will encounter Okerberg and Almquist for the doubles championship of the University and some highly exciting tennis should be witnessed. With the increased interest' in the game this fall, a large crowd is expected, particularly as .Harrison and Lock wood will meet in a singles exhibi tion, as will Henry Neer and Stan ley Almquist, immediately follow ing the doubles finals. The match Thursday went three sets, contrary to the current dope sheet which had Harrison and Lock wood billed for a straight set vic tory. The scores, 5-7, 7-5, ti-3, are indicative of the calibre of play. With Neer and Hartman holding a -1-2 lead in the first sot, tho Cali fornia state champions staged a rally of two straight, which, how ever, was offset by a three straight run by Oregon’s varsity players. The second set proved a- thriller, be ing tied at three-all, four-all and five-all, the last two games going to Harrison and Lockwood. The Cali fornians assumed a two-love lead in the third set, and continued on to victory, with Necr and Hartman picking up three games out of rhe wreckage. , Roy Okcrberg and Stan Almquist, ! seeded X6. 2, came from behind in ! the first set of their match with ; Hick Edge, and Howard Shaw after trailing 5-0 to win the set 8-0. In 1 the second canto, Okcrberg and Aim- j quist won whenever they willed, the final being 0-4.
