Coach Dick Newman’s rook grid sters are confident. They believe they have the number of the fuzzy duckling that will visit them Satur day. They are so confident that it borders on being in the category of cockiness. Rooks Want Victory The Orange rooks are extremely desirous of defeating the Oregon babes this year. They have two very convincing reasons. First and foremost, because the freshmen are enrolled at the University of Ore gion. This reason alone ignites a raging flame of indignation within the breast of the young Beavers. The second reason they want to trample the Oregon yearlings is be cause of the manner in which Rein hart’s 1920 squad of scrappy frosh received them on their visit to Hay ward field last year. The embryo farmers were set back to the tune of 14 to 0 and, it seems, they have not forgotten the affront. With the double necessity of van quishing the bold "bad babes from Oregon this season the Orange in fants have been holding earnest and extended pow-wows about the goal posts of Bell field in efforts to con coct a medicine of sufficient po tency to put roller skates under the Webfoot duckling’s chances of vic tory. Frosh Determined They think they have the medi cine to work the trick in the boot ing of Hughes, fullback, the ball toting abilities of Kerr, and Mc Kalip, halves, the generalship of Weinel, quarter and their charging line. The confidence of the rooks pro duces little effect in the camp of the Oregon frosh except to increase their determination to unhorse the rooks. The freshmen are going to Corvallis to beat the Orange young Increase In Oregon Offensive Power Due to Student Support By CHAN BBOWN Student support has had a very definite effect on the team in the last two weeks, aud Ted Pope, var sity e n d, thinks that their sincere , backing will be am- i ply rewarded this * afternoon. “The old Oregon offen sive has sure come j back since the last game,” said Pope, g I “and one of the I principal reasonsl for this increase ini power is that the rooters have taken Ted Pope a decided trend for the better, which is definitely felt by the team. In regard to the proposed change in the name of the Oregon Agricultural College to that of Oregon State, Ted said, “No matter what the Beavers may think about their new title they are still the Aggies to us and we are going to beat them, rain or shine.” Pope is playing his second year as a varsity wing man, in which po sition he has distinguished himself on more than one occasion by his speed and agility on the field. Ted is a junior, a member of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, and is major ing iu business administration. He weighs 1(58 pounds and stands 5 feet 11 inches in height. His first foot ball was played as end for Franklin high school in Portland, where he played for three years being captain during his last season. Pope also made two letters each in basketball and track. With at least one more year in which to play for the Lemon and- Yellow, Ted will have a chance to beat the Aggies again next fall. sters. That is their one avowed pur pose. Coach Billy Beinhart does not give the Aggie infants more than an even break with his pro teges, despite the confidence in the Orange vicinity and despite the fact that the Oregon freshmen eleven will not be at its best when it goes out on the field Saturday. Bert Tuttich is almost definitely out of the game, although he may make the trip with the team. He has been practicing with a guard over his broken nose but this could help little in actual scrimmage. Kitzmiller has been out with in juries but may be able to get in Saturday. He will replace Hill at half while Moeller, erstwhile end, goes to full. Kelly Unable to Start Parke, quarter has been in the infirmary but should be able to tackle Beaver meat by tomorrow. Donahue will be at half if Parke is able to start at quarter. Donahue himself is considerably bruised up but will not let anything less than a broken leg keep him from the rook tilt. Kelly is out again with a bad shoulder and ankle. Colbert and Parkes are the only linemen who are very badly bumped but they will both be in the fracas, regard less. The battered condition of the squad is largely due to the strenuous scrimmages they have been holding with the varsity in helping to ef fect the rejuvenation of the big squad. Today the frosh will see the varsity batter another team while they recline at their ease in the stands. Stein Is New End Moeller’s position at end will be filled by Stein who has been shift ed from halfback. Stein and Arch er, who will probably start at the other end, are small men compared to the balance of the line but they are fast, - sure taeklers, and hard fighters so that their slight weight disadvantage should be nullified. Chappell will start at center; Parkes and Lillie, guards; and Col bert and Christensen will be tackles. These five husky linemen, from re cent indications should cause no little worry to the rook forwards who will glare across the ball at them. Dvorak, Devereaux, Hall, Penrose, Eckman, Hodgen, Laing, Heiberg, Bagain, Douglas, and Jesse are some of the reserve infants that may get a call before the finishing touches are applied to the rooks. Bill Fowler Leaves For Home in Tacoma William A. Fowler, graduate as sistant in the school of business ad ministration, left late Monday eve ning for his home in Tacoma, Wash ington, because of his father’s death. It is not known when he will return. Mr. Fowler is engaged at present in doing research work for his department.

CALL 95 WE DELIVER Order of ‘O’ Will Banquet This Evening Affair To Be Held in the Campa Shoppe At 6:30 o’Clock Reinforcements have been added to the walls and weights have been attached to the roof of the Campa Shoppe as preparatory measures for the big annual Order of the “O” Homecoming banquet which starts at 6:30 tonight. There will be three features dur ing the course of the affair, some thing new and different and hotter, promises Clare Hartman in his most mysterious manner. Coaches of the Oregon teams are scheduled to punctuate the period with talks on the University’s ath letic present and future. There will be in attendance heroes of past years of the gridiron, track, maple courts and diamond who will re count deeds of the past. The banquet will not interfere with the dances to follow later in the evening but will act in the ca pacity of first rate starter, par excellence, for a “big” evening. All lettermen should be present. Foot ball men who have earned their sweaters this season are especially invited. The banquet promises to be a memorable affair and members of the Order of the “O” should let nothing hinder them from taking advantage of the opportunity it of fers for a big time. Hew plans have been made for the Order of the “O” parade that is to proceed the big game on Hay ward gridiron. All lettermen will meet at the R. O. T. C. barracks, where they will form the line of march. Be there at 1 o’clock, promptly, is the request of those in charge, wear your sweaters, and have student body tickets with you. Miss Oneita Jantzen and Miss Pauline Prigmore spent Friday and Saturday at their homes in Portland. Aeroplane to Bring Sports Editor to See ‘Battle of Giants’ Today — He’s up in the air! Kenneth L. Binns, sports editor of the Portland Telegram, is the gentleman with the birdlike tendencies. Binns will leave Portland at 11 o’clock Friday morning, flying to Eugene for the Homecoming game. He plans to reach the Eugene flying field at 12:25, just one hour and twenty-five minutes after hopping off from Portland. This is the first time a sports editor has used this mode of trans portation to attend a football game, or any other athletie contest at Eu gene, as far as is known. Binns will be accompanied by the Telegram staff photographer, Gardi ner P. Bissell, who will fly down in another plane, to take action shots of the “battle of the giants.” The planes will be piloted by two com mercial aviators from Rankin field. R. O. T.

C. unit of the University of Oregon have been requested to participate in the Armistice Day parade in Eugene which will Btart at 9:30 a. m. Fri day, November 11. Credit for drill attendance and ex emption for a corresponding num ber of hours during the following week will be given to all present for the parade. Those who do not turn out will report for their regular drills. The R. O. T. C. headquar ters urge that each student make every effort to turn out. Don Mc Cook, rally chairman, also asks that each house excuse every freshman from Friday morning chores so they can be at the barracks on time. The group wrill assemble at 8:30 a. m. at the barracks to be assigned rifles and given instructions. Band members will wear the regular U. of O. uniforms. Dismissal will be at an hour making it possible for par ticipants to attend campus luncheon and change clothing prior to the game. During the past five years the E. O. T. C. has taken an active part in making the parade a success. This year the usual line of pro cedure will be followed, and as a rule the streets are thronged with people desirous of seeing the uni formed boys in parade.

Warren is also playing his last Homecoming game for Oregon. He is a stonewall defender and can open huge holes on the offense to drive the backs through. Guards Are Fast The Webfoot guards are light, fast and shifty. Wood and Me Cutchan are starting the contest with Weems and Keeney ready as reserves. The Oregon style of line play necessitates swiftness in the guards in order to drop back to pro tect a passer or a punter and to run interference. These men are the ones who turned back the relentless thrust of the heavy Idaho backs, and they are determined that the op position they present to the Aggies will be equally impregnable.

Wetzel, who was convert ed from a halfback at the first of the season, is a big eog in the Web foot attack. He is a certain pass receiver, and is a consistent con verter on the kick for extra point after a touchdown. Speedy Backfield Robinson, Burnell, Mason, and Gould are the starting backs. This combination offers the versatile ability of speed and power. Robin son is one of the most deceptive runners on the coast, and is almost a certainty for many yards today lie is the triple-threat of the team, being able to punt, pass and carry the ball with equal dexterity. Gouli adds the punch to the offensive. Many times during previous confer ence games this year, the opportuni ty to score has been lost to the Web footers by the lack of a final drive Nothing but the impossible can sto; Gould today should he get withii the five yard-line. i__, Cross-Country Runner^ To Vie Prior To Game Team to Run Against Beaver Squad for Championship Track Course Is Slippery Due to Rain By GLEN GODFREY After a lapse of three years the Oregon Webfoots will have a cross country meet with the 0. A. C. Beavers on Friday at Hayward field. The distance race will start at X o’clock and is scheduled to finish .just as the last “old grad” is being seated in the grandstand, and prior to the football game. The course over which the harriers will run is perhaps one of the hard est to cover in the Pacific Coast Conference fields. The start and finish of the race will be on the cin ders at Hayward field. The two 20-man teams will run down the straightaway to Emerald street. They will then journey up Emerald to Columbia and from there they will switch over to Reed street. After they have climbed the steep Reed street the runners will find them selves on Fairmount boulevard, which they will follow to the top of Capitol hill. From Capitol hill the runners will coast down the ridge leading into Hendricks park. From the park the men will continue down the trail which leads to Hayward field. The circuit will be approximately three miles of up and down running. The trail through the park is muddy and slippery due to the recent rains. With four men missing from the list of 20, William L. Hayward, head track coach, is rather pessimistic about the outcome of the race. The Beavers will have the advantage as Oregon will have to take 164 points for%its handicap. The team which has the least number of points at the close of the race is declared the winner. The first man in receives one point, the second two points, and so on down the line. When entries are missing it forces the team to take the last places, which in the case of Oregon will mean a loss of 40, 39, 38, and 37 points, as they will receive the last four places. Oregon, to win the meet, will have to place a large percentage of their ■ men in the upper group. However, ' Hayward is of the opinion that the i Webfoots will stand a good chance (Continued on page five) CUl OtHAobftanic Uiotrofa Ai/ncja ocrnce/rt-fajaiL imta tyou/r /Ciai/n^-roami WITH this splendid instrument, you and your friends can enjoy the best in reproduced music—with as many encores as you wish—at any season in the year.
