Battle
(Continual from l'nge One)
Twitched, lettermnn halfback, has
his trick knee well under control |
and will no doubt break into the
game. Carl Melton, another veteran!
halfback, who was injured in the j
Southern California game and out
ever since with a broken foot, re
turned last night to the lineup and
ran through signal practice for the
first, time since October ti. Met ten
also lias a chance of getting into
the fracas. In the absence of
Thompson, Me! Whitlock and his tal
ented wet weather kicking toe will
take care of the punting. The cot
ton thatched end delights in boot
ing a wet pigskin.
The probable starting lineup in
cludes Hass St i iff and Mel Whit
lock at end; Chuck Stout and Roseoc j
Luce, tackles; Yern Filers (captain) i
and Jule Carlson, guards; Hob tiod
des center; Howard Maple, quarter;
Henry Hughes and Cecil Sherwood,
halfbacks; and Carl Gilmore, full
back.
Paul Trains Baekfields
Schissler drilled two Imokfields
this week with a view to dividing
up the reserve in punting with
Thompson in one set and Hughes in
the other. One included Hughes,

Headline—McEwan Points for
Oregon State
Ah, here indeed, thought I, is an
excellent chance to secure on ex
clusive interview with a sports
celebrity for the Emerald fans.
So off I hied—I am from a family
of biers—to Hayward field.
It was a cloudy, goofy day. In
side the fence two varsity teams
were blocking, tackling and running
through play formations. I particu
larly noted the personnel of the
first team. It was Stadelman, cen
ter; Shields and Hagan, guards;
Christensen and Colbert, tackles;
Archer and Pope, ends; and Burnell,
Williams, Kitzmiller and Could,
backs.
I found McEwan in the center of
t ho other included Thompson in
place of Hughes, and Twitchell as
n, halfback. Sherwood may bo used
at; safety and Hog Montgomery as
defensive half in case of injury to
Maple, while Ralph Buerke, quarter,
may also play safety.
The Orangemen went through
their last intensive workout Thurs
day night and wound up their prac
tice with light training Friday
morning and are now awaiting the
game. The weather mas has given
little indication of what is in store
for Saturday’s game, yet at a late
hour Friday night clear skies gave
promise of fair weather for tomor
row.
Six Beavers will be denting the
tanbark of Bell field for the last
time today. Maple, Filers, Carl
son, Oeddes, Luce and Twitchell are
due to play their last game for the
Orange. To date they have never
been beaten by Oregon starting with
their career as rooks and through
three years of varsity.
Harriers
(Continued from Page One)
concedes Oregon a better chance
now that a maximum of 10 men has
been agroed on.
“You must remember,” said Bill
Hayward, “that none of our men
except Pat Beal have had any ac
tual experience before coming to
school here,”
Bill expects Pat Beal to break
his leg or become disabled in some
other way just before the race.
“Fvery time I want to use rat,”
he said, “he is never in shape.
Something is always happening to
that fellow.”
Jensen Definitely Out
Kd Jensen, who was one of tho
lights of the team, is still hopelessly
sick with the flu. With Winter
back in the lineup, however, Bill
feels that his loss is taken care of
in the best way that could be hoped
for. In case Winter should fail to
get into proper condition for the
race, Bill will rely on Alfred Mak
inen, a crack niiler from last year’s
fresh team.
CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 17 —
Headed by Captain Vera Gilmore
HI Oregon State cross-country men
will meet Oregon’s harriers here
this afternoon. These runners were
selected by Coach Dick Newman
from a squad of 110 picked this
weel*i Bv agreement with Bill Hay
ward of Oregon Paul .1. Schissler,
director of athletics, reduced the
number from 20 to 10 from each
school. The finish of the race will
be on the Bell field oval just be
fore the kickoff of the football
game.
Spurred by the memory of last
year's victory over the V ebfoots
when they copped It of the first
IS places, the Beaver squad will
put in a strong bid for premier
honors. Fast times have been made
on the local course by the Orange
men.
Besides Captain Gilmore, the
squad consists of Leonard Carroll,
Hichard Cyphers, Norman Hawley,
Honald Johnson, Lyman Hinker, Fi
nest Woods, Kd Wolf, Ralph Camp
bell and Paul Young. Lee Han
sen, northwest mile champion, was
selected for the team but had to
go to his home in Los Angeles be
cause of sickness in his family.
Straub
(Continued from Page One)
tenbein as is stated in the clipping.
The publicity thus attained attract
ed the attention of Judge Matthew
Beady, president of the first board
of regents of the university. Two
days after the above announcement
appeared i ntlie Oregonian, I was
a bona fide member of the staff of .
the University of Oregon,” was I
the way that Dean Straub told the 1
story.
The university at that time, ac- ■
cording to the dean, had a student
body (if approximately 50 and the j
whole school was housed in one I
building, Beady hall. The faculty :
if four, of which Dean Straub is
the only surviving member, ruled
>ver a domain that extended from !
I
all of this, chatting amiably with a
chap.
“Ah, there, McEwan!” I said.
“Ah, there,” he said (for it was
he).
“Do you point?” I asked him.
After all, the true test of a coach
is his pointing.
“I point a little,” he answered
bashfully, digging his cleats into
the turf in a modest way.
“Tst, tst,” interrupted the chap
lie was talking to, “go on with you.
Why, lie can point like the merry
devil. I betcha he’s the best point
er in this here country, he is.”
“Come, now, Mr. McEwan,” I
coaxed, “I’d like to see some of
your very best, pointing.”
“Oh, all right,” he replied and
he laughed, “I’m afraid it will be
just terrible, but if you insist-.”
And he clicked his heels together
and brought the index finger of his
right hand up to his eye and down
in a kind of salute until it was
horizontal. It was quite the best
pointing I had seen in some time.
“What,” I asked a fellow, “has
Scribe Flees From Field
Before Coach’s Frowns
he that bandage on his finger for?”
“Shhh,” he ■whispered, “he got
that from pointing for California!”
The team ran through a lot of
signals. Some palooka got away
for a long run.
“That’s a swell off-tackle play,”
says I.
“Go on,*’ he says, “that was an
en drun! Say, who are you any
way?”
“I am the spirit of the Van Wig
gins vegetable soup hour. When
the gong strikes——”
At this point a player whispered
. . . “and he says he’s the spirit
of the Wan Wiggins weggitibie
swoup hour.” {P.S.: I am NOT. I
was only fooling).
So [ decided J had enough story
for that day and moved to go. I
am not absolutely certain, but I
think McEwan sounded relieved
when he said goodbv.
Eleventh to Thirteenth streets be
tween Kincaid, and University ex
cept the corner on which Friendly
hall now stands—that corner was
then a marsh. The grounds were
full of gopher holes and received
no care whatsoever except that once
a year they “made hay” of the
grass which sometimes grew knee
high. A four foot fence encircled
the grounds, and the entrance was
on Twelfth street by means of a
stile which was designed to keep the
cows out.
“As nearly ns I can remember,
there was no football team until
about ’97 and they played on the
field between Twelfth and ThirV
teent.h streets, and Kincaid where
the Y. M. O. A. hut is now located.
As a matter of fact, our only gym
nasium equipment was a bar and a
pair of rings suspended from the
‘Condon oaks,’ the only trees on
the campus at that time,” said
Dean Straub.
There wore approximately 200
students in the entire institution at
the . time that the dean joined the
faculty bu only 50 were in the real
university. There were pupils from
the sixth grade up.
The curriculum allowed no elect
ives and every student was required
to take 17 hours a week. Among
the subjects listed were Latin,
Greek, German, mathematics, chem
istry, physics and English.
“If students didn’t fet their les
sons in those days they were forced
to attend what was known as an
‘extra session’ from 4 to 5 o’clock.
I even made the Baptist minister
come back for an extra -session
once,” laughed Dean Straub.
Dancing was strictly forbidden
and there was no social life of any
kind on the campus. The nearest
approach to anything of that kind
was the activity of the two literary
societies, according to the dean. It
was through the donation of the
libraries of these societies that the
university library was started.
“We of the faculty knew every
student by nam’e and spoke to them
all on the campus—those were cer
tainly happy days for we were all
like a big family group. The cam
pus today is so big that it has be
come very impersonal and altogether
too much of an ‘it’—I sometimes
long for those good old days again,”
Dean Straub declared.
However, Dean Straub is the one
professor on the campus who speaks
to all the students and they to him
—and what's more they don’t say
“hello”— but “hello dean,” and
they give him a smile—and a big
one.
Wilson

\ of social and economic students.
Here lie will speak of education and
tell of liis summer’s work.
Lecture in Commerce
Jn the evening Mr. Wilson will
lecture at 105 Commerce, on vari
ous social (juestions, the entire cam
pus being invited. His talks are
not of religion or of politics, but
about life. Life as he secs it the
world over, and life the way it
should be lived.
Three years ago a most enjoyable
lecture was given at a student body
assembly by Mr. Wilson, and the
students, being so enthused, staged
another that evening at which even
a larger number were present.
