Frosh Point For Weekend Seattle Game Callison Rounds Defense Into Condition Yearlings Will Face Stiff Opposition in Husky Babe Contest The freshman football warriors are tapering off this week in prep aration for their big game with the University of Washington Babes. Last night Callison sent the squad through a fast hard scrimmage practice; the last real workout before the contest in Seat tle Saturday. The Frosh went through two hours of practice on Hayward field and when they retired for the evening a great deal had been ac complished. The timing of the of fense was worked out to a finer degree and the Washington game should see a much smoother ma chine on the field. The defense of the Frosh is everything that can be desired when it comes to stop ping straight drives into the line. Pass defense is another question. This feature has been worked on faithfully this week, as a dry field is anticipated, and this usually; means an aerial game. Frosh Defense Strong Just a word about the yearling defense. In the Rook game of last week the Frosh clicked so well that only three first downs were made against them during the first half, and these were all from penalties. So not a first down did the Frosh allow from scrimmage while the first string was in the game. This j shows the possibilities of the squad i as a defensive eleven, and from this 1 record already made it is expected to show up favorably against the Babes. Coach “Pest” Welch, former Pur due backfield star and all-Ameri can halfback in 1929, and now coach of the freshman charges at the University of Washington, has his team all primed and gunned for this invasion from the U. of O. With Pollock in the starting lineup the Frosh will have their hands full stopping this sensational year ling man. He is not the entire team by a long way but is the chief worry to the opposition. Justus is another man that will be heard about after this encounter as he is Coats Polo at DeNeffe’s In Great Variety I an Color $23.50 to $38.50 Grays $33.50 Blues $38.50 The Swagger Coat of the 1931 Season-styled by Braeburn Yours is waiting. YES —AND BE SURE AND GET THE NEW RED BOOK. DeNeffe’s On and off the Campus | a mountain of strength in the for ;ward wall. Clarkson From Seattle The game at Seattle has a pri vate duel flavor to it, as Clarkson j is from that city and played foot ball on the Lincoln high school I team., Two of his former team I mates will be lined up against him when the starting wTiistle sounds Saturday. Clarkson plays right | half on the Frosh team and his buddy Wyman holds down left end for the Babes. This is quite a co incidence when you consider that left end will be in most of the plays when right half carries the pigskin. It will be a case of bitter enemies during the game but the best of pals before and after the battle. Flannagan, guard, is an other Seattle boy that hopes to stop the speed merchant, Clarkson. When the entire game is sum marized, it is impossible to predict anything but a hard fought game between two rival schools. The Frosh have one of the best teams developed in recent years and are out to keep their slate clean. The Washington Babes are out to wipe away the thoughts of last year's defeat. Individual Swim Tourney Brings Forth Champions Privat, Kirby, Pratt Lead Campus Mermen in Fight for Honors Six all-campus swimming cham pions were crowned yesterday in! each of six different events run off in a championship meet in the men's pool. The events were the 80-yard free style, 40-yard back stroke, 40-yard breast stroke, 120 yard medley relay, 60-yard indi vidual medley, and 120-yard free style relay. Jean Privat of the Yeomen, who was one of the most consistent point-gatherers for the champion Yeomen in the recent intramural swimming tournament, took part in two winning races yesterday. He won the 80-yard free style event and was the anchor man for the victorious Yeomen relay team in the 120-yard medley relay. Kirby of the Yeomen also swam in two winning events. The victors in each event and their winning times follow: 80ryard free style—Privat, Yeo men. Time, 0:46 3-5. 40-yard back stroke—Pratt, Beta Theta Pi. Time, 0:25 1-5. 40-yard breast stroke—Kirby, Yeomen. Time, 0:28. 120-yard medley relay—Yeomen (Seal’s, Kirby, Privat). Time, 1:20 3-5. 60 - yard individual medley — Thompson, Alpha Tau Omega. Time, 0:40 4-5. 120-yard free style relay—Sigma Alpha Epsilon (Robertson, Clift, Gearhart). Time, 1:20 3-5. THE MAN OF THE MOMENT IN FILMDOM! A fresh, vibrant, ex citing. ... personality that has^caught the imagination of ro mantic. America. BETTY COMPSON GENEVIEVE TOBIN DON’T MISS HIM! IN THE PRESS BOX with Walt Baker— - ROM the fresh man point of view on the grid, angle things are all set. Coach Callison ran his squad through a light scrimmage followed by a hard workout <-^ that just about has the boys on a fighting edge for the coming game in Seattle next Saturday. They will furnish a preliminary attraction for the Washington varsity’s game with Whitman that comes off the same day, and I'll miss my guess by miles and miles if the two first year squads don't put on a better game than the two varsities. In fact, it would be mighty interest ing to see Whitman and the Ore gon freshmen take the field against each other. Although Whitman always turns out some of the best teams in this part of the country for a small school, it wouldn't be a bad bet to put a little money down on the Frosh, if such a game .were possible. Nothing hands down, of course, but that's just the class the fresh men are in. * * * BASKETBALL, AT O. S. C. Also, Armory Gill, the hoop men tor at Oregon State, has roused his basketball men out of their spring and summer lethargy and now has them working out for the coming basketball season. Hoop prospects ought to be pretty bright over there this year. Most of the string from last year will report for practice for the coming sea son. Conference basketball starts during the first week in January—• over two months away—and in all probability the sport here will not turn out until around the 16th, or after Bill Reinhart gets through grooming the football backfield for the Oregon State game. Last year basketball was out here on Octo ber 16. It’s pretty early in the season to start on predictions, dope, and all such things in this basketball racket, but we just paused a minute to wonder if our brethren at Oregon State (or does O. A. C. sound more familiar?) would have their pride hurt seri ously if we just abbreviated their official name and called it plain O. S. A. C. herein. I remember a little incident two years ago where the name as such appeared on the basketball scoreboards, and, after the first half, the indignant State rooters demanded its re moval, thinking, no doubt, that it brought up old memories, longing to be forgotten, when things were different. MEEHAN, NEW YOKK U. In a recent talk with the coach of an opposing team, Chick Mee han, coach of the New York uni versity Violets, whom the Webfeet meet this week-end, said that if the coach wanted them, he would hand over to him the diagrams of all his plays—but he would have to use his own judgment as to just when his team was going to use them. Here's one of the keynotes of modern football. Deception, such as is used to its utmost by Pop Warner, plays a very impor tant part in present-day football. Double and triple reverses, trick plays, hidden ball plays, and all the rest of the category go a long way in the moulding of the game as it is played today. But when it comes down to winning ball games, it isn’t just the working out of these plays but running them in unexpected sequence that puts opponents off the track and catches them back on their heels. And this is the sort of thing that Doc Spears and the boys will run up against next Saturday. Last Saturday, N. Y. U. took the meas ure of Colgate, 13-0, coached by Andy Kerr, who, until two years ago, was Pop Warner’s assistant at Stanford. Here they showed their complete supremacy over de ception a la Warner.

Newman’s Fish Market PHONE 2309 39 EAST BROADWAY FREE DELIVERY I | interesting to note if Oregon s power plays and off-tackle shots will get to first base when the two teams meet. Oregon State broke into the middle of the Violets’ un defeated season two years ago and handed them a 25-13 licking to shock even the most optimistic dopesters. Can Oregon pull the .same stunt? Intramural Water Polo Tournament Commences Today Fourteen Teams Will Vie; j Yeomen Are Installed As Favorites TODAY’S SCHEDULE 4 P. M. Beta Theta Pi vs. Phi Delta Theta. 4:45 P. M. Alpha Tau Omega vs. Friend ly hall. 5:30 P. M. Omega hall vs. Phi Kappa Psi. The intramural water polo tour nament commences festivities this afternoon with the scheduling of three contests.

LAST DAY on THE LARGEST SCREEN IN TOWN LIONEL BARRYMORE KAY FRAMCIS MADGE EVAHJ A perfect mystery drama that defies solution right down to the last scene! i Coming— “THE SPIDER” “THE SPIRIT OF NOTRE DAME” IS COMING! New York University Holds Impressive Victories Over Eastern Teams This Season Chick Meehan Has Veteran Squad for Oregon Tilt; McNamara’s Punting Sensational Boasting an almost veteran eleven and an impressive record for the year, the Violets of New York university expect to add an other victory when they meet the University of Oregon this Satur day. Chick Meehan’s team has yet to be beaten this year and, after hurdling such obstacles as George town, Rutgers and Colgate, it is thought highly improbable in the East that -the Webfoots will be able to make much of a showing. The N. Y. U. outfit has piled up a total of 193 points to oppo nents' 7 in the five games played so far this season. The Violets took Hobart- 65 to 0 in the opener and followed with a 54-to-0 win over West Virginia Wesleyan. Following these two slaughters, they continued to run wild and pile up 34 points against George town while holding that team scoreless. Rutgers, while not in the same class as the powerful, precise moving New York machine, did manage to push over the only touchdown scored against the Vio lets this year. This score came as a result of a single-handed drive by Jack Grossman, Rutgers flash, who is a brother of Nat Grossman, who plays at one of the halfback posts for Chick Meehan. N. Y. U. came out on the long end of the count, 27 to 7. Joe LaMark, heady Violet quar terback, was responsible for a great deal of his team’s success against Rutgers, and he starred again last Saturday when Colgate bowed to New York university 13 to 0. The big sensation of the Colgate battle, however, was the phenom enal punting of Bob McNamara, little 162-pound fullback. McNam ara practically kicked Colgate into submission as his long, perfectly placed boots into the coffin corner took all the spark out of the Col gate offensive. Time after time, just as the Maroon squad would get well under way in a march down the field, McNamara would put high twisting spirals close to the Colgate goal line and the work would have to be started all over again. McNamara followed this pro cedure to break up Colgate threats five times in the first three pe riods and, not content with that, he sent three other kicks for 69, 74 and 78 yards before they were finally grounded. In addition to his punting, Mc Namara scored the second toflcli down after a brilliant 64-yard dash through the entire Colgate de fense. In the event that Oregon should press the New York danger line, the presence of McNamara and his educated foot shovdd be a big fac tor in the Violets' defense, al though Meehan does not consider that alone as his only advantage over the westerners. Many German leaders are at tempting to discourage so many young Germans from going on with their educations instead of some lucrative occupation. Husky Coach Prepares For Berkeley Tilt Game To Be Played on November 7 Washington, Whitman To Meet Saturday at Scuttle Stadium SEATTLE, WASH., Oct. 28.— Coach “Irish Jimmy” Phelan of Washington's Golden Tornado is “pointing'' his Huskies for their annual battle with the California Golden Bears at Berkeley on No vember 7. Phelan’s Huskies pulled one of the biggest upsets of the conference season here Saturday when they fought a "heavily-favor ed Stanford Cardinal off its feet in a scoreless deadlock. "We've got a conference season still ahead of us,” Phelan declared Monday as he called his men to gether to start working oh Califor nia offense and defense. “In meet ing California at Berkeley on No vember 7, I realize we are catch ing “Barnacle Bill" Ingram’s men on the up grade. Then, of course, without any rest we’ve got to come back to our home orchard and take on Washington State, one of the finest passing teams in the conference this season.” Whitman Is Opponent Next Saturday, Jimmy Phelan and Earl Campbell, graduate man ager of the A. S. U. W., have in vited 10,000 youngsters under the age of 14 years to be guests of the Associated Students for the annual Whitman-Washington game here on the Husky field. Last year, led by Capt. Buddy Applegate, the Whitman eleven provided Washington's opening competition and although the Mis sionaries were severely trounced they were never beaten, throwing passes, pulling spinners and try ing until the final gun. The second and third string teams will have a chance to show their stuff, although Coach Phelan probably will put his regulars in there long enough to give them a workout. He isn’t anxious to have anyone “go stale” Dut doesn’t want to take any chances of injury to some of his big fellows with two such games as California and Washington State on successive Saturdays. Nude culture is spreading over Germany with hundreds of men and women being converted to the movement each week. At one swimming pool recently 500 nud ists gave a sporting festival before newspaper men, the purpose being to show the attractiveness of the movement. LAST TIMES TONIGHT!
