The “genial Doctor Spears,” of
1 the University of Oregon, as he
• has often been termed, appeared to
’ have lost a good deal of his geni
ality at the varsity practice last
night. In fact, between confer
i ences with the assistant staff, he
spent most of the time on the field
raising particular cain with the
r boys and forcefully pointing out all
the faults in evidence in the game
last Saturday. You can't blame
him much at that. In spots, the
Webfeet looked like a champion
ship team with the works hitting
on all six and then at other times
they showed the inevitable sopho
moric tendencies of a very green
team. And it will take a working
out, and a very thorough one, to
get the outfit on even terms for
the brand of football that the Uni
versity of Washington under Phe
lan is going to put on the field
next Saturday.
POSSIBILITIES SEEN
And another thing, I don’t be
lieve that I ever heard of a sopho
more backfield and an inexperi
enced line turning into a world
beater team, at least not in this
day and age of gate receipts and
wonder-teams. But then again, I
believe that very few just such
teams have all the combined pos
sibilities of Oregon’s 1931 squad.
Take Leighton Gee, who turned in
a mighty fine performance against
Idaho. To quote Gregory of the
Oregonian—74 yards in 9 plays—
or averaging over 8 yards a try,
which is exceptional in any game.
Although Gee is not a sophomore,
this year is his first chance for an
appearance with an Oregon varsity

and ho did himself proud Satur
day. Another sophomore, Mark
Temple, gave the fans plenty to
talk about, turning in a good per
formance on the defensive and
averaging nearly 4 yards on 18 at
tempts. So much for the individual
stars, but it was the perfect co
ordination of “the sophomores” on
the scoring play, with Joe Lillard
carrying the ball and the Oregon
line functioning to perfection', that
furnished the thrill of the after
noon. It was the interference run
ning, mowing down everything in
it’s path—one of the few really
brilliant flashes of the day—that
enabled Lillard to cross the goal
line standing up and saving the
Webfeet from the ignomy of not
scoring a touchdown against
Idaho. If Oregon can consistently
look the part they played on that
one play, there will be plenty heard
about them in the future.

“PARLOR ATHLETES” CRY * j
As rather an aftermath of the j
game we have heard lots of cry-'
ing around the campus about Ore- j
gon's “deplorable” showing against
the Vandals. These parlor athletes
very seldom take into considera
tion the facts that are facing Ore
gon at the present time and go on
the idea that we are OREGON
and should therefore win by two or
three touchdowns. Very few teams
turn in an impressive first appear
ance—and this was Oregon’s in
the Coast conference. Along with
this fact is another—the very ap
parent one that an inexperienced
Oregon eleven was pitted against
second and third year men of the 1
Vandals. Taking a more open- i
minded view-point of the matter, i
although the boys didn’t look like j
any championship aggregation, !
still they showed up very promis
ingly under the existing conditions
and with a couple more coast
games to get them all lined up,
there will be lots happening in the
East when the Webfeet meet North
Dakota and New York university.
FROSH LIDS SIMILAR
TO THOSE FIRST WORN
(Continued from Page One)
this year are the same as those
which were first adopted by the
class of ’33. As a sophomore
wears moleskins, and the seniors
and juniors wear cords, the frosh
have adopted the uniform and in
expensive trademark which identi
fies them should the green lid fail
to do so.

Oregon Flashes Good
Sophomore Prospects
Washington Takes 35-to-0
Victory From Oakes’
Montana Crew
With the Idaho contest out of
the way, Doc Spears' Webfoots
are getting ready to settle down
to business so that they can fur
nish Washington a busy afternoon
in Seattle next Saturday. Oregon
managed to handle the Vandals
handily last Saturday long enough
to acquire nine points while hold
ing the Calland men immersed in
the whitewash bucket.
Jimmy Phelan at the Husky [
school has a 35-to-0 victory over
Montana to his credit after the
week-end. Just what this means
is largely a matter of speculation
So far this year Montana hasn't
been heard from much, except
that word has gone around that
prospects have been nothing to
get excited about and that this is
the first season for B. F. Oakes
as grid mentor of the Montana
forces.
Certainly there should be no
reason to break out with mild
hysteria because of Washington's
display last Saturday, but again,
no one has yet predicted a na
tional title or even a bid for the
coast conference championship for
Oregon either.
Oregon s showing at Portland
was far from impressive on the
whole, but then again when they
did “click” things happened im
mediately, and before a dazed
Idaho team could get straightened
around a d e t ermined Oregon
eleven had crossed the goal line.
So far, the boys with the inside
dope figure Washington several
notches above the Webfoots. Phe
lan has a wealth of material this
year from which he should be able
to develop a powerful and smooth
working combination. And in ad
dition to his new men, he has the
dependable and trusted services
of several veterans which should |
help out considerably.
Oregon turned out a sweet
bunch of sophomores against the
Vandals at Multnomah stadium,
also. It appears that all these I
promising Oregon men lack is ex-'
perience and a chance to polish j
up a bit. The whole Webfoot
squad has played so far this sea- j
son just as the occasion demand
ed—just coming through with the i
necessary punch to win the games.:
It was the same against Idaho.
When the time came to drive over ]
the touchdown to put the game
safely on the skids, a transforma- j
tion came over the whole Spears’
tribe. They settled right down
and chalked up the seven points
in question. It seems only nat
ural to expect that Oregon will
show much improvement when it
meets the Washington Husky Sat
urday.
Efficiency Indeed!
In the Queen’s University Jour- J
nal, Canada, is noted the follow- j
ing witticism: “Efficiency in a co- j
ed is that quality which enables j
her to make up her mind and mind j
her make-up at the same time.”

Managerial Call

Head Manager Jack Edlefsen
has issued the first call for all
sophomores interested in athletic
managerial work .
to be at a mi 11

Arthur court, on'ff
Thursday at 4M
o’clock.
The work asg|

wishing recogni- Jack Edlefsen
tion and experi
ence along that line. The system
as it exists at the present time
offers an opportunity to usually
about nine or ten sophomores in
each sport turning out for the va
rious athletic practices. Out of
this first experimental manage
rial crew, three or four managers
are chosen on the basis of merit
and outstanding performance for
work during the junior year.
Those men whose excellence rec
ommend them for the promotion,
are then eligible for the position
of senior manager, of which there
is one in every sport—football,
basketball, swimming, baseball,
track, and tennis-golf.
The appointment comes through
the graduate manager, the coach
of the sport, the head sports man
ager, and the senior manager of
the sport, and must be approved
by the athletic council of the A.
S. U. O. The experience gained
through contact with the business
transactions of the particular ath
letic team is valuable, and the dif
ficulty of the appointment makes
the job of senior manager of the
sport or head sports manager one
of prestige and importance.

JJESFITE committee encour
agement, extensive equip
ment, and all conditions perfect
for a week-end of tempestuous
rallying, the Oregon - Idaho
game was conspicuous because
of its lukewarm pep meetings
and spineless fain.
However, one more game re
mains to he played on foreign
territory that can he attended
by many of the Oregon stu
dents. The rally committee,
headed by Carson Matthews, is
hanking upon the Washington
Oregon game this week-end to
restore the Oregon reputation
of pep and enthusiasm.
liallying will commence on
Wednesday with a dance at
McArthur court, and will be
continued later in the week
with pep meetings in Eugene
and Seattle. After the game,
invitations have been issued by
the Washington students to
Oregonians to attend a dance
which will climax the week
end.

Close Game Predicted;
Washington Has Edge
' Spears Pleased by Showing
Of Eleven in Recent
Idaho Game
Losing no time in starting the
training grind for the coming con
test with the University of Wash
ington next Saturday at Seattle,
Doc Spears had his Webfeet out
on Uayward field yesterday for
another of the same gruelling
practice sessions that were held
last week. For over three hours
the varsity worked, devoting much
of the time to scrimmage against
a freshman eleven using Husky
formations.
Barring minor injuries to Ed
Moeller and Mike Mikulak, the
squad returned from the Idaho
contest in good shape. Moeller
also brought back a handsomely
decorated optic. With the possible
exception of serious injuries in
this week’s practice, the team will i
be at full strength next Saturday. j
Spears was evidently pleased by
the improved showing of the
Ducks against Idaho. Greatly im
proved blocking and tackling over
their efforts in their preliminary
games was shown in last Satur
day’s game. The showing of Gee,
Temple, Mikulak, Pozzo, Watts,
Moeller, Lillard, and several oth
ers also showed that Spears has
plenty of reserve backs.
Outstanding weaknesses shown
seemed to be in the Webfoot pass
defense and the lack of a class
AA punter. Despite a week’s drill
against Idaho pass formations, the
Oregon backs were caught flat
footed several times and only luck
prevented a possible different out
come. Irv Schulz, who was pulled
out of the line to do the kicking,
performed nobly on several occa
sions, but his efforts were not
equal to real conference perform
ances in that line.
At present the Huskies are
rated by the newspaper critics as
about one touchdown better than
Oregon. According to reports
from Seattle grid followers, they
are offering 21 points to Oregon
backers. Portland sports writers
predict a close game in Seattle,
with breaks probably deciding the
ultimate outcome.
Debate Between Women
And Men Being Planned
Plans are being made to ar
range a debate between a wom
an’s team of the University of
Oregon and the men’s debate team
of the University of Nevada, Reno,
on the subject “Easy Divorce,”
some time in February, according
to Walter Hempstead of the pub
lic speaking department.
The team from the “divorce”
state will tour the Pacific states
debating on that subject. Robert
Griffin, graduate of the state col
lege of Nevada, is coach and ad
visor of the team.
So far no other debates have
been scheduled for the Oregon
teams. However, several proposi
tions have been submitted by the
debate resolutions committee to
the members of the Pacific Foren
sic League. No choice has been
made, but the debate question for
the men’s teams will deal with the
present political conditions. For
the girls, uniform marriage and
divorce laws will be the general
topic.

Frosh When Door
Slams and Locks
QNE poor freshman had to
miss her luneh yesterday
because she found herself
locked in the A. \Y. S. office in
McArthur court. Evidently one
University office is “secure" in
the literal sense of the word—
or maybe the A. XV. S. officials
are plotting to trap workers.
At any rate this office girl
walked calmly through Mr.
Mimnaugh's office and became
so absorbed in her work that
she did not discover that some
one had locked the door
through which she had entered.
By that time everyone in the
igloo had departed merrily for
lunch, and it was not until 1

Casteel Comes to U. of O.
With Straight ‘A’ Record
John L. Casteel, head of the de
partment of speech in the English
department, is regarded as one of
the most brilliant students ever
graduated from Nebraska Wesley
an, where he made a straight “A”
record.
He graduated in 1927, and the
following year received his master
of arts degree from Northwestern
university, where he also held a
fellowship. During his undergrad
uate career he captained the var
sity debate team for three years
and won both of the oratorical
championships offered in Ne
braska.
As an undergraduate and grad
uate student Mr. Casteel did a
great deal of work in English lit
erature and history to establish a
broad background for the more
highly specialized work in oratory
and debate. He has taken courses
in speech rhetoric, speech correc
tion, oratory, methods and prob
lems of teaching speech, and lec
ture problems.
Lew Sarett, head of the school
of speech at Northwestern univer
sity, describes Casteel as a man
of depth, solidity and quality, who
knows public speaking down to
the minute, and one who at the
same time is profoundly interest
ed in literature and a writer of
poetry.
Social Science Groups
To Hear Red Cross Head
As the second of a series of
speakers sponsored by the school
of applied social science, R. E.
Arne, in charge of war service for
the Pacific branch of the Ameri
can Red Cross, will be on the cam
pus Monday, October 12. Inter
ested students and faculty are
urged to hear his talk. The time
and place of the meeting will be
announced later.
“Six or seven addresses of this
kind are being planned for the
winter,” Dean Parsons said yester
day, “as one of the officers of the
Pacific branch of the Red Cros3
will be here to conduct an insti
tute each month.”
Outstanding Art Works
Of Mueller Shown Here
Diversity of Style and Subject
Shown in Large Group
A fascinating collection of the
work of the late Michael Mueller
is now on exhibition in the display
room at the art buildings. The
exhibit is of special interest to stu
dents of the modern school of
painting but at the same time the
collection shows a diversity of
style and subject. Mr. Mueller had
for two years been an art instruc
tor here on the campus before his
untimely death last summer.
Outstanding in the display is a
group of about two dozen sketches
taken from various poses of a
very aged woman in peasant dress.
These studies are remarkable for
their expression of feeling. There
are several notable portraits in
oils and a great many interesting
landscape pieces both in water
color and in oil. Under glass are
pen and pencil sketches from life
done in line and detail.
There is quite a group of work
done by Mr. Mueller while studying
at Yale. The collection is most in
teresting from the standpoint of
its being the work of one of Ore
gon's foremofft artists and one of
the University’s outstanding in
structors.
