spears Revamps Entire Team Foi Coming Grid Till Greatest Changes Made Ifi Baekfield Pozzo To be Quarterback: < Gee, Temple To Hold Halfbaek Berths Doctor Spears sent an entirely revamped Wetafoot football team through a tough four-hour scrim Doc Spears mage session ant a three-houi blacltbo aid drib last night as a final practice be fore leaving foi North Dakota this afternoon In e n d e avoring to find a back field and line combination which would click into a per uwi muvuiuv, kjyuaio U1LU every available combination of fered by the green material at his command. The lineup of players running through signals last night was his final choice. In the backfield, Doc shifted Pozzo from fullback to quarter >. back to keep him in the lineup and take advantage of his great of fensive strength. At the half po sitions are Leighton Gee and Mark Temple, both fast, shifty ball-carriers and good interference runners. Temple will probably do most of the passing for the squad, as he has the most accurate throw on the team. Gee will do most of the kicking and pass-receiving. Tackle Positions Strong At -the ends will be Bowerman and Wishard. Both these boys started out the season in the cen ter of the line. Bowerman tried out at quarterback in the first practice after the squad returned from U. S. C. Bowerman is the best bet on the offense, while Wishard is a hard-playing, aggres sive, defensive man. Both weigh over 190. The tackle positions will be filled by Nilsson and Morgan in all probability. Nilsson is playing his first year and Doc has chosen j. him for this position in the games so far this season as he tips the beam at over 220. Bill Morgan, at the other tackle, has been hand icapped for a part of the season by a sore shoulder muscle, but his size and drive elect him a prob able starting position in the line up. At center, of course, will be Eric Forsta, who is acting captain in the absence of Schulz. Forsta is one of the best ball-passers in the conference and is strong on defense. Winters Out A big hole was opened in the Oregon line yesterday when it was announced that Laurence Winters, end, would be out for the rest of the season with a broken leg-bone. The extent of the injury, sustained in the game with the Trojans, was not fully realized until yesterday morning. As a consequence, Win ters must wear a cast on his leg for at least four or five weeks. In the final workout before leaving for the East, Spears scrim maged the second team against the freshmen, the varsity on the offensive using mostly off-tackle plays and passes. After the lights were turned on, the Frosh were sent to the dressing room, and the team spent the next half-hour run ning through signals in three squads. List Released Those making the trip with the team are: Doc Spears, head coach; Bill Reinhart, backfield coach; Bill Hayward, trainer; and Jack Dant, student football manager. Players selected to make the trip are: Eric Forsta, A1 Edwards, Ray Kelly, Paul Starr, Chuck Swanson, Bernie Hughes, Howard Clark, Irv Schulz, Red Wilson, Er win Nilsson, Bill Morgan, Bill Bowerman, Red Bailey, Chuck Wishard, Ed Moeller, Romey De Pittard, Howard Bobhitt, Leighton Gee, Don Watts, Bud Pozzo, Mark Temple, Oliver Pope.

Hall Announces New Slating for PIPA Convention Conclave Is Scheduled for Homecoming Week; Hearst Invited In response to a poll of popular sentiment among members of the Pacific Intercollegiate Press asso ciation, conducted by Vinton Hall, president of the body, the date of the annual convention of the asso ciation, which will be held on this campus, has been changed to No vember 12, 13, and 14.

Because of an extended illness King Wilkin, the association’s ex ecutive secretary and director of publications at the University of California, will be unable to attend this year. Arrangements have been made for the housing of the delegates during their stay on the campus at the new men’s dorm. To Receive Applications During the conference the asso ciation will discuss the possibility of taking in new members to be selected from daily, weekly, and semi-weekly papers in the college field. In doing so it is asking the publications in this group to send an application for membership to the association. The conference will be started off with a luncheon Thursday noon. Thursday and Friday will be devoted to business, and a ban quet followed by a dance will be the event of Friday evening. Sat urday afternoon the delegates will be guests of Oregon at the annual grid classic of the two state insti tions, after which they will be among the guests at the homecom ing dance that evening.

FAIL TO DTKIT F POSH / An Answer _EDITORIAL_ f^OW we're getting somewhere. Responding to the Emerald's demand yesterday for an inves tigation of the campaign and voting in the recent freshman class elections, Brian Mimnaugh, president of the associated stu dents, lias promised the full co operation of the student admin istration. We appreciate his stand greatly. Mimnaugh has two plans to prevent illegal voting at campus elections. They call for identifi cation of voters by the use of individual photographs on stu dent body cards, and the signa tures of student voters at the polls as they receive their bal lots. Both plans could well be used together, we believe. The Emerald, let it be under stood, is attacking neither fac tion of the recent freshman campaign in its investigation. We want all campus elections cleaned up, and fully believe there is no time like the present to start the good work. Plans on Campus Luncheon Taking Form, Says Lyle Homecoming Directorate Announces Progress At Meeting Plans for the biggest Homecom ing in the history of the Univer sity broke with a bang at a snappy Alexis Lyle neeting of the di rectorate in charge of the big affair last night. Alexis Lyle, Klamath Falls, chairman of the luncheon commit t e e , announced that plans had already taken form with the committ e e ex pecting to serve 5000 people in ui iuvu who uruenueu iwo years ago. The luncheon will be served in McArthur Court between 11:30 and 1:30 with a charge of 50 cents to the alumni. All students will be required to present their student body cards at the door. A banquet for alumni not wishing to enter into the college spirit of the lunch eon will be served at the same time in the men's dormitory. Plan Innovations Plans are under way to bring an orchestra from Portland to furnish music while the guests partake of a box lunch. This will be an inno vation on the campus anu the box lunch idea is expected to greatly speed up the serving. An addition al feature will be the pledging to Friars, senior activity honorary for men. The general meeting of the di rectorate was marked by enthus iasm from all present, and the an nouncement that the merchants of Eugene were wholeheartedly coop erating in every way to make it the biggest event of its kind in history added to gusto of the oc casion. The merchants are already making extensive plans for the decoration of the whole city in stead of limiting the gala touch to the campus district as in the past. Committee Named The complete list of the commit tee appointments for the luncheon are: Assistant chairman, Bob Hall, Eugene: secretary, Helen Chaney, Eugene; menu, Louise Ansley, Portland; serving, Nancy Suomela, Portland; music, Helen Burns, Portland; tickets, Howard Ragan, Eugene; tables and assignments, Ned Kinney, Portland; cleanup, Neal Bush. Vernonia. Alteration in By-Laws of Donut Sports Announced The intramural sports adminis tration board has announced a change in the by-laws governing donut athletics. It concerns the eligibility of frosh numeralmen, md the alteration is in Article I, Section 2(b). The revised rule now reads as follows: A student who has re ceived a frosh award may not compete on a team in that partic ular sport until after one school year of inactivity in that intra mural sport on this campus. ASUO Officials Pledge Aid In Election Probe Joint Investigation With Emerald Planned Plans Under Consideration For Elimination of ‘Dirty’ Balloting DISFRANCHISED VOTERS STILL SOUGHT Any freshman who found his name crossed off on the polling lists and was deprived of his vote in the class election last Friday is asked to leave his name in the box provided for the purpose in the library of the school of journalism, room 10 Journalism building. Cooperation of the student ad ministration in the investigation of questionable practices in the freshman election last Friday was assured yesterday by Brian Mim naugh, president of the student body. The investigation was start ed by the Emerald last week and will be continued with the help of student body officials. Two plans for the prevention of illegal voting have been under con sideration by Mimnaugh since he took office last spring. The first of these involves the use of a pho tograph of the holder on each stu dent body card. Under this sys tem, the student body would use the pictures taken by the Univer sity as a part of registration pro cedure, and it is believed that this would prove a positive means of identification. Require Signature Under the second plan, the stu dent would be required to sign his name on the poll list at the time he votes. This signature, accord ing to the plan, would be compared with that on the student body card, thereby checking the use of the cards by anyone other than the owner, according to Mim naugh. ! Another project under consider ation is that of a limitation of campaign expenditures. Much un favorable comment has arisen out of campaigns in recent years, where dances, printed booklets, banners, airplane stunts, and other expensive forms of advertising have been used in the interests of candidates. Clean Spring Election Plan If the proposed plan were put through, such practices would either be entirely eliminated or so curtailed as to be of little value, according to Mimnaugh. It is be lieved by student officials that cleaner campaigns would result from such a limitation. “The Emerald and the student administration should work hand in hand on this investigation,” Mimnaugh said yesterday. “The student administration has already taken steps looking toward clear ing such matters in the future, and it is hoped that something definite can be accomplished in time for the elections this spring.” Y.M.C.A.

To afford a more active social life and to sponsor inter-organization activity will be a further purpose of the council, it was said. Another meeting will be held next Tuesday at the “Y” Hut at 4 o’clock, at which time the imme diate activities will be decided up on.
