Another number from last year’s junior week-end program, “Creole Moon,” was presented by Edith Bader, Ethel Lou Crane, Tim Wood and William Powell, when they danced a double Spanish tango.

This is only one of the scouting parties Coach McEwan is sending out to the California Bears today. See them all on the field. Varsity (Continued from pope one) bailie to a morn favorable angle. Oregon lias long been famous for fighting lenilers, »id Beryl Ilodgen does not fall short of his prcdncos sors. The other guard position is being filled by Everett McCutchan. Me Outclian was a candidate for center at the beginning of the practice season, but Stadelman with Hagan in reserve seemed to form the best combination at the middle of the line. Undaunted, McOntchan fought his way to a regular job of tfhe var sity at guard. That persistent spirit was in evidence in the contest last Saturday, and will be exhibited for the discomfiture of the Bears today. Wetzel and Pope at Ends The combination of wingmen that will start today is one of the strongest and most consistent seen at Oregon in several seasons. Wet zel at right end has not lost any of tho shill that made him a potential back for two years, lie has the weight, the speed, the endurance, and the fight to turn aside the sweeps of the California back-field men. The ability of the Webfoot ors’ right end to snare passes, and his speed in following down punts indicates that plenty of action is in store for California’s secondary defense. Till! starting Webfoot backfield will bo minus one of its surest ground gainers. Bobbie Robinson, shifty quarterback, will bo on the sidelines with an injured wrist. Whether ho will bo in condition to get into the fray Inter on is doubt ful. The Webfoot .-attack will not be greatly impaired ns Ira Woodie, reserve back, is an aeeiftate passer, speedy, and can run back punts with considerable dexterity. Dry Field Hoped For With Robinson out, the swiftness of the Oregon backs will depend upon Burnell. A dry day and a fast field should give “Speed” a good chance to break away for some long gains. Coleman at the other half will furnish the team with a line plunger and a heady interference runner, blither Coleman or Wetzel will do the punting. Cotter Could, I1h> charging full back, gives the necessary power to the backfield. If Could continues the same smashing tactics that he used against the Vandals, the Cali-I forniu forward wall will have to I be equal to all reports on its; strength. Send the Emerald Home. NEW COLLEGE MAGAZINE "A new magazine, COLLEGE STORIES has made its appearance on the campus. While it . special izes in College sport stories, College tales of adventure and romance, it i also publishes humor, poetry, pic- j tures and news. It makes a special I appeal for student writers and is j now published 9 times a year. Its motto Is, OF, BY, and FOR College Folks. It sells for 25 cents.—Adv. ” Bears (Continued from pope onr) other possible change of this sort might 1>p made, at guard. Elmer Cerken, better known ns a shot and discus thrower, was given a try at. guard early in the season, but has since been used as a sub stitute tackle, where his 200 pounds would be more valuable, and his lark of speed would be less of a disadvantage. If the Bears were to resort to a plunging game, it would not be much of a surprise if Elmer were to be back in the guard posi tion. x Local Golf Course Tests Dexterity of Player, Says Moe Don Moe, one of Portland’s best among the young golfers, is a fresh nian at the University of Oregon. This summer in the California state golf championship, George Yon Elm, last, year’s national amateur champ, and Francis Brown, .golf champion of Hawaii, fell victims to Moo’s ac curate clubs. ‘‘The country club course here in Eugene,” says Don, ‘‘is a real test of a golfer’s ability. It is of cham pionship length and hard enough to make it interesting. I like the last nine especially.” The first time that Moe really shot a full 18 holes on the Eugene course, he made 10 and 34. To a duffer, a 40 and 34 would be a miracle of mashie shots, but to Moc it was simply another 18 holes pf golf. About the only hazard Don can’t seem to pitch over is Frank Dolp, of Portland. It was Dolp who put him out of the running in the Cali fornia state by 2 up and 1 to go. In the Oregon state championship, Moe and Dolp met in the finals, and again Dolp emerged victorious; this time by one gentle tap of the | putter, after the match had gone to 38 holes. Try Emerald Classifieds Grid Schedule ForTodayHas 2 'Big’ Games Trojans to Test Mettle Of Stanford’s Hopes At Palo Alto Aggies to Rest Bones As Other Teams Play Huskies Expect Montana To Be “Push-overs” By BEN E. TITUS (U. P. Staff Correspondent) (By United Press) San Franeiseo, October 14.—The eyes of football fans on tlio coast Saturday will be turned toward Portland and Palo Alto for the first “big” games of tbc conference season. Hereabouts, sportswriters seem to believe that the Stan ford-U. S. C. game at. Palo Alto is the “big.” game and that California will have no trouble taking the s$alp of the Webfoots at Portland. Certainly the Bears in no way re semble the sorry representatives of California of last year. Got Lots of Praise When California defeated St. Mary’s last week, great credit was heaped on the heads of the Golden eleven. However, St. Mary’s was not the same team that defeated ’Stanford the week before. Some of The St. Mary’s players last week pulled “boners” which would "have sent high school players to the bench. The Oregon line held against the heavy Idaho line last week and it '.was chiefly about bis line that Cap tain MScEwan was worrying early in the season. Trojans Favored IT. S. C. will go into the fray lfavorit.es over the “Crimson tide.” Stanford’s showing against St. 'Mary’s and Nevada was so sorry that critics could see but little hope ’for a good year for the Cardinals. But. the Stanford rooters say that a different team will take the field [ Saturday. If Stanford eon hold the ball against the Trojans Saturday, it. may be a very close football game. Nothing To It Washington will journey to Mis soula and should have no trouble in bringing home a victory over Mon tana. The Oregon Aggies will rest Sat urday while Idaho plays Whitman in a non-conference game. Washington State will have a tougher time against! Gonzaga at Spokane than it did last week against Montana, Botany anti Zoology Departments Combine To Teach Biology Animal biology is being taught this year instead of zoology, I)r. Iv. A. Moore, head of tho university zoology department, announces. The reason for this is that the botany and the zoology departments have agreed that all students should know about both plants and an imals, lie states. Majors in both | biology and botany are now com pelled to take a junior course in physiology. There is a large number of now assistants in the department, Dr. Moore announces. David T.
