    As we look over the potential
strength in the various depart
ments of the game in Seattle next
Saturday and compare the Hus
kies and the Webfeet on the same
basis, it comes right down to the
fact that Oregon’s greatest weak
ness is the total lack of a con
sistent and effective kicker.
Washington has Bill Marsh, the
halfback that has been getting off
some of the most dependable kicks
so far this season. It will be re
membered that this same Marsh
did the booting for Huskies last
year in Portland and gave Johnny
Kitzmiller some mighty fine com
petition. At any rate, Oregon is
on the short end of the deal in
this department this year—Lil
lard is erratic and Schulz, before
the start of this season, hasn’t
been on that end of things since
he played in high school. . At that
Captain Schulz is slated to do all
the kicking for the Webfeet up
in Seattle. So far this season he j
hasn’t had to get any great dis
tance in his punts, for in the Idaho '
game most of the kicks were
called for out of bounds in Idaho
scoring territory.

S.CHULZ DOING KICKING
But it will be different in Seat
tle. With such undoubted strength
in this department, Washington
will be able to use this threat to
good advantage, as Oregon’s
power here is as yet untested.
Schulz may make good here. If i
he plays this department of the1
game, inexperience notwithstand
ing, like he has been showing up |
in the line so far, things will look i
brighter. But it’s still a long i
chance for Oregon, which is bet- j
ter than none at all at that.
PHELAN WARNS TEAM
Earlier in the week Jimmy Phe
lan in a pep talk to the Washing
tonians told them that “Your sea
son revolves around the Oregon
game Saturday. Beat that bunch j
and you needn’t be afraid of any
body.” And we are inclined to
agree with him. Although some
risky gamblers in Seattle are of
fering as high as 21 points on Ore
gon, it looks to me like they are
sort of biting off more than they
can chew when it comes right
down to facts. However that may
be, there are plenty of more level
“What do I care
if she’s an inno
cent girl—

DOC SPEARS ON EDGE
And on his part, Doc Spears is
hardly laboring under the illusion
that the Washington outfit is a
set-up. Tonight's practice winds
up the preparation for the game
as the team leaves on the 6:45
: train for Seattle. In all probabil
ity, the boys will be on the field
until the last minute, having only
j enough time to change clothes and
j rustle for the train. This is the
I way the good doctor is pointing
his boys in reply to Phelan’s chal
lenge. Of course there will be a
light workout in Seattle Friday
afternoon, but it will be in the na
! ture of a warming up rather than
an intensive practice on offensive
or defensive.
Faville, Walstrom Fill
Co-op Board Vacancies
Wedemeyer and Dean Bovard to
Leave Positions
Two new members now serve on
the board of directors of the Uni
versity Co-op store, recent vacan
cies having been filled at a lun
cheon meeting of the officers to
day.
David Faville, dean of the school
of business administration, was
elected to take the place of Dean
John F. Bovard, recently resigned,
due to absence from the campus
for several months because of
poor health.
Ralph Walstrom was chosen to
fill the vacancy left by Adele
Wedemeyer, who did not return to
the University this fall, having
registered at an eastern school.
According to Wallace Baker, '
president of the board, today's ap
pointments again give the Co-op1
a full list of officers.
Dorothy Illidge, he explained,
was elected last year to serve the
unexpired term of Dorothy Jean
Murphy. Miss Murphy had been
elected for two years, but did not
return to school after the fall
term. She was to serve until next
spring.
Ethan Newman, George Turner,
and Dean James H. Gilbert are
the other officers of the board.

would affect the religion and do
away with many of the harmful
taboos, and aid in relieving the
poverty of the lower classes,
which is caused largely by illit
eracy and ignorance.
“England has just about made
up her mind to give India domin
ion status,” said Mr. Mondol. “If
she does we will have to compete
with the capital of other countries,
but it will be clean, straightfor
ward competition, instead of the
underhanded, unfair method which
now exists to insure the monopoly
of English capital.”
Mr. Mondol has been in this
country two years, studying at
Northwestern university. He will
return east after his present tour
to complete requirements for a
master of arts degree. He will then
return to Calcutta, India, where he
is headmaster of the Collin’s Boy's
school, which is a university pre
paratory school.
Oregon Eleven Heads North
Today; Week’s Drill Smooths
Rough Spots in Defense
Ducks Will Be at Full Strength for Game With
Powerful Huskies, Saturday
I —
BOUND for the big game of the year, Doc Spears and 35 Webfoot
gridders will leave Eugene tonight for Seattle, ready to battle
the University of Washington next Saturday. The squad will arrive
in the northern city Friday morning and will work out on the turf
field at the Husky stadium that afternoon.
A stiff practice session yester-*---—
] clay that lasted until after dark
! ended a strenuous week of drill
I for the Ducks. Some of the rough
spots that were plainly shown in
defensive work in last week's
game with Idaho appear to have
vanished as the first and second
string elevens went through a
light scrimmage with the frosh.
A smoothness that was lacking in
Portland has taken place of the
indecision and poor team play
shown in offensive play.
The Webfeet will be at full
strength for the Husky tilt, ac
cording to Trainer Bill Hayward.
Bill Morgan, regular tackle, who
has been out of scrimmage this
week, is in good shape and will
be able to start. Outside of a few
minor bruises, the Ducks suffered
no ill effects from the Vandal
game.
Reports from Seattle have it
that Coach Jimmy Phelan is some
what worried about Joe Lillard
and the rest of Oregon’s young
backfield stars. The Washington
scouts came back from the Idaho
game, Seattle dispatches say, with
I
glowing accounts of the prowess
of the seven or eight backs used
against the Vandals.
All this is undoubtedly true, but
the main problem in Oregon's of
fense and defense will be the line.
So far this season the forward
wall has not shown up in A-l
fashion. But, as said before, this
week's practice seems to have
ironed out many of the rough
spots.
Despite reports from the north
that Merle Hufford, Husky back
field ace, will not be able to per
form next Saturday due to in
juries suffered in the Montana
Washington game, the Oregon
group are not planning on count
ing him out of the picture. Bear
stories of this type are too fre
quent this time of the year.
At least a thousand Oregon
rooters are expected to be present
Saturday at the Husky stadium.
Washington officials are planning
on a crowd of around 40,000, for
it is a well-known fact that Phe
lan and his men are determined
to end Oregon’s three-year string
of victories.
S. A. E. Stage Spectacular
Grid Struggle With Preppers
By RANTLAND GRICE
SPECIAL DISPATCH DIRECT
FROM UNIVERSITY HIGH
SCHOOL FIELD, Oct. 7—Doc
Spears would have felt a heap
more confident about the outcome
of the Oregon-Washington game
if he had been around here today
and had seen some of the S. A. E.
“has-beens” and “might-of-beens”
in their titanic and colossal super
i deluxe gridiron struggle against
Choppie King and Jean Eberhart’s
University high eleven.
Unfortunately, the game was
not widely advertised and only a
few thousand spectators were on
hand as the two teams battled
furiously in a veritable sea of
sawdust. As far as the final score
went the game ended in a tie, as
both teams claimed victory on
technicalities. The preppers cried
loud and long when the collegians
hooked the best headgear and the
S. A. E. hopefuls claimed that
Dave Gilman, the head-linesman,
was under the pay of King and
Eberhart.

Seriously, the game was ar

for the University high outfit, and
outside of the fact that the S. A.

his appearance. His 22 years of
service in India for his home
church in Luxemburg had given
him an insight into the question
of Indian independence."
Mr. Iyer says that Katherine i
I Mayo received every possible as- i
sistance and encouragement from
the British government when she
wrote her sensational book,
“Mother India."
When asked if he would talk
about his book, how it came to be
written and where he secured his
information of the “degeneracy"
of western civilization, the little
man settled back in his seat, took
a preferred cigarette, and pro
ceeded to unfold the strange story
of “Father India.”
“I was in London shortly after
‘Mother India’ was published,” he
said slowly. “Everyone was talk
ing about it. At that time I had
no idea of writing any kind of a
book, but a member of the Indian
council. Sir Mohamed Rafique, sug
gested that I answer Miss Mayo’s
portrayal of India. His suggestion
appealed to me and I started to
.work at once to write a book about
I the West similar to ‘Mother
India.’
“Where did I get my material ?
That was easy. Someone told me
that ‘The Revolt of Modern Youth,’
by Judge Ben Lindsey, would sup
ply me with all the necessary in
formation about American life.
“I bought a copy in London,
took the next boat for France, and
in three weeks the book was com
pleted. I was at a loss for a title
until Sir Charu Ghosh, his majes
ty’s judge in the Calcutta high
court, proposed that I call it
‘Father India,’ as it was a reply to
‘Mother India.’ They are now
printing the fourteenth edition.”
Friedman Measures Gelatin
I .Pores After Six Years’ Effort
j Process Is Accepted and
Published in Treatise
On Chemistry
The millions of people who daily
eat with relish various forms of
gelatin prepared as a flavored de
sert, as salad or even as cold con
somme may not realize that this
delicacy is composed of a sub
stance called “gels” and that these
gels are made up of a porous
framework, the pores of which are
filled with water. And they may
not realize that these pores are so
tiny that until a short time ago
they had never been measured, be
! ing so small that they defied even
a microscope.
It remained for a University of
Oregon chemistry professor, Dr.
I Leo Friedman, after six years of
' painstaking research, ^o discover a
I method and actually measure these
I minute openings or pores, and his
work has now been accepted as
authoritative and published as a
new part in the latest edition of
j "Treatise on Physical Chemistry,”
by Taylor.
Comprehension of the size of
these pores is an overwhelming
task, for they measure from
.00000008 to .00000048 of an inch.
, To pronounce this say “eight

hundred-millionths to 48 hundred
millionths of an inch,” or in other
words, one hundred million (100,
000,000) of the pores side by side
would measure just eight inches
to 48 inches in width.
Dr. Friedman, now recognized
as one of the leading young sci
entists of America and already
known abroad for his work, is en
gaged on the general research
problem of seeking knowledge on
life tissues. He is attacking the
problem through the study of gela
tin or “gels,” since all living plant
and animal systems are made up
of gelatin-like substances. His
papers on properties of gelatin
systems have just been published
in the Journal of the American
Chemistry Society, a publication
which prints only the work of sci
entific authorities and which is re
garded as the highest authority in
this field.
Dr. Friedman's remarkable dis
covery of the size of the pores in
the gelatin was made possible by
the process of diffusion or by
measuring how fast liquid would
go through the openings, since
there is no instrument made that
would actually be small enough to
span such a tiny space. The actual
measurement hitherto has defied
scientists, but Dr. Friedman’s sys
tem has now been proven accurate
(and accepted by the Treatise as
! correct.
j The research being carried on by
j Dr. Friedman, while not intended
! primarily as a commercial venture,
I may result in discoveries that will
make possible new edible prepar
ations, it is stated. He has now
reached the point where he is
studying emulsifying or “sticking
together” properties of gelatin and
may find new ways of binding
substances such as oils and water
together, resulting in food com
binations not now in use.
Dr. Friedman came to the Uni
versity from the University of
Wisconsin in 1928, where he had
just received his doctor’s degree.
He is also highly regarded as an
instructor, as well as research ex
pert.

Huskies Working
Hard for Tilt With
Oregon Saturday
iHnfford on Injured List;
Webfeet Regarded as
Dangerous Team
UNIVERSITY OF WASHING
TON, Seattle, Oct. 7.—(Special).—
Washington is regarding the ap
proaching game with the Univer
sity of Oregon as the “important"
;tilt to win. “Irish Jimmy” Phelan
j lias never yet been able to win
i from any team coached by Dr.
| Clarence Spears and he looks on
| the game this year as the one in
which to stage an “about face."
Overtime practice sessions which
have lasted far into the murky
darkness until it becomes too dark
to see the “spook” ball have been
the order of the day in the Husky
camp. The frosh have been thor
oughly schooled in Spears’ style of
play and the varsity has been put
ting on considerable polish while
these scrimmages have been under
way.
Teams’ Styles Known
Phelan and his staff of assis
tants maintain that they have been ]
in contact with the genial doctor's
tactics long enough to know how
to combat it successfully. This
line of reasoning is not all one- i
sided, however, for Spears has a
record on file in his mind that just
about contains all there is to know i
about stopping the Notre Dame
attack which Phelan sponsors.
No new injuries have made their
appearance so far this week, but
Merle Hufford, the ace of the
Husky backfield and contender for
all-American honors, has done
nothing more than walk around a
bit trying to loosen up his “char
ley horse.” Johnny Cherbourg is
also bothered by the same ailment
and is under a rest cure.
At this date it looks as though
young Paul Marlowe may be the
starting fullback. His defensive
work has won the eye of Phelan
and this alone may give him the
place August Buse has held. Buse
has everything on offense that
might be asked for, but his defen
sive game has been his weak point.
Oregon Taken Seriously
A slant at the seriousness with
1 which Oregon is being regarded is
best shown by Cliff Harrison in his
column in the Seattle Star. Har
rison says: “Not wishing to be
tiresome, but still insistent on
driving home to our readers a
truth that seems to be escaping
them look out for Oregon.
"Tins same Spears we’ve men
tioned before comes here Saturday
with a team of big, fast, hard
hitting Oregonians.
“Our scouts say he's been hold
ing back, has plenty ready to
spring on the Huskies.
“When someone talks about giv
ing this and that many points witli
Washington a favorite, they’re
just plain ‘nuts’.
“This is going to be the ball
game of the day so far as the
Pacific coast is concerned, and
don’t forget it.”
