t
The *32 Trojans.
They Look Good.
Orv Mohler Back.
—By DICK NEIBEKGEK___
'J'HE University of Southern Cal
ifornia will have another great
football eleven this year. Make no
mistake about that. The Trojans
aren't through yet. They may not
be as uniformly formidable as the
team that scored 16 points on No
tre Dame in 12 minutes, but they
will be strong enough to carry the
fight to every opponent they meet.
Southern California's power was
in its line last fall, and the major
ity of the members of that bruis
ing unit will return this autumn.
Only in the backfield will the
Trojans suffer from lack of ex
perienced men. Every position on
^ the line will be taken care of by
veterans. There’s Ray Sparling,
the rangy junior, for one end. The
other wingman probably will be
Johnny Seixas, a .freshman. Sev
eral varsity reserves will be back,
but Johnny's so good that he’s vir
tually a certainty to play at Gar
rett Arbelbide’s old position.
The tackles will be Ernie
Smith and Captain-Elect Ray
mond Brown. They were regu
lars last fall when the Trojans
dashed to an undisputed nation
al championship. The guards
will be Carry Stevens and Aaron
Rosenberg, the lads who had
Johnny Baker, an all-American,
sitting on the bench almost half
the season.
Curtis Youel and Frank Wil
liamson, understudies to Cap
tain Stanley W'illiamson last fall,
will return to play center, but
neither may see action. Tenta
tive plans at Troy have Bob Ers
kine groomed for the pivot post.
Erskine was a 200-pound sub
tackle last year, so there should
be no lack in weight in the cen
ter of the line.
Now let’s look that over once
more:
End—Ray Sparling, 180.
Tackle—Ernie Smith, 220.
Guard—Rosenberg, 200.
Center—Erskine, 200.
Guard—Stevens, 205.
Tackle—Captain Brown, 210.
End—Seixas, 187.

Who said the Trojans would be
shattered? The Oregon lads who.
played last autumn will tell you
that the big boys mentioned above
are nobody’s playmates.
Behind this line, however, will
crouch a backfield which will have
to improve considerably before it1
can equal the quartet that pow
ered the Trojans to national su
premacy last fall. Orville Mohler
will call signals. That much is
taken for granted. But will Or
ville be as effective this year as he
was last, when Shaver and Pinck- [
► ert cleared the way for him ? Per
sonally, I doubt it. Then, too, don’t j
forget that Mohler usually re
mained on the bench until Shaver
and Musick, the 210-pound batter
ing rams, had softened the oppo
sition considerably.
Mohler didn’t get into the
game until the other team was
on the run. That makes a con
siderable difference. This year..
..he will have to depend upon his
own efforts to tire the Trojans’ i
adversaries. There’s no doubt
that Mohler is as elusive as a .
phantom in open territory, but i

No, thS Southern California
backfield this year will not be as
Strong as that of last. The
line, however, should be equally
as good, if not better, than that
of 1931, so there’s no particular
reason why Mr. Howard H.
Jones should wear sack-cloth
and ashes. He had better save
such a demonstration for 1933,
when practically everything he
has this year will graduate. Then
there will be wailing and weep
ing within the walls of Troy.
Oregon is fortunate in meeting
Sputhern California this year
one week after the Trojans bat
tle California. However, it’s six
of one and half a dozen of the
other, for the Wdbfoots go south
only a week after the tradition

played in “'Los Angeles. That’s
another advantage for the Tro

who will see most of the game
from the bench.
The Beavers will be heavy pre
game favorites as they have won
four and lost only two, while Ore
gon has taken only three out of
eight. The two losses to Washing
ton this week has lowered the Web
foot stock considerable. Both de
feats were due to lack of aggres
sivness on the part of the Oregon
players. Jeffers and Watts have
snowed plenty of fight during the
short times they have played and
Reinhart’s hopes for a win may de
pend upon them.
Cap Roberts, now leading the
northern division in scoring, will
start at center and Hank Levoff
and Captain Windy Calkins, at the
guard positions. These three men
have proven to be the bulwark of
the team and are expected to do
most of the scoring.
Coach Gill will bring a team of
experienced players with him. Ed
Lewis, six foot fivo inch center;
Ken Fagans, brilliant forward;
Jerry Thomas, sharpshooting for
ward, and Everett Davis are sure
starters. Carl Lenchitsky will
probably start at the other guard
post. Howard Merrill, six foot two
inch reserve will be ready to fill
forward, guard or center positions.
The return of Jerry Thomas to
the Orange lineup will add consid
erable offensive strength. Due to
his height, 5 feet 10 inches, Thom
as is not regarded as a strong de
fensive player.
ist for the Los Angeles Examiner.
He recently made a detailed eight
column sketch of his opinion of the
Tluane-U. S. C. game in the Rose
Bowl. Inasmuch, as Erny lugged
.the ball to two of Troy's touch
downs, his impressions should be
cheerful in character, if nothing
else.
DRASTIC CUT IN WORK
HERE MAY BE MADE
(Continued from rage One)
University this year is shown by
a comparison of expenditures for
the present year and the past year.
This year the budget is $1,117,000,
while last year it was $1,391,000,
showing a saving this year of
$274,000.
The situation following January
1, 1933, is simply that the Uni
versity will have the figure of
$906,000 for Eugene and $265,000
for Portland, or less with shrink
age of millage and student fees,
to carry on work that this year
is costing at the bare minimum
$1,117,000 here and $320,000 in
[ Portland. It is therefore obvious
that highly important functions of
the University will have to be sac
rificed unless relief is provided,
since further economies or curtail
ment is not possible.
That the University is operating
at utmost efficiency compared to
other state institutions is shown
by the fact that only $188 per stu
dent is received here, compared to
an average of $407 in other states.
Another significant fact is that
more than half the high schools of
Oregon provide more than $188
per s udent for instruction and
maintenance of the plants.

The outstanding volleyball

With an all-campus fencing

that it would be appropriate to in
dicate a few of the more important
regulations.
The bout will be awarded to the
contestant scoring the first five
touches, but the judges may tajte
into account undue roughness.
Touches count only when made on
the body, bounded by a high neck
line extending to the tip of the
shoulder and to the hip line. A
touch, whether fair or foul, stops
the bout. The judge must stop a
corps-a-corps as soon as it is made.
A touch scored from a thrust
started with the elbow behind the
body does not count. Each con
testant fences with the same hand
throughout the bout.
These rules are only a few of
those governing bladesmen. A

For Victors
The frosh basketball squad fur
ther proved its strength on the ma
ple court yesterday afternoon when
it trounced the strong St. Mary’s
five in a practice game, 50 to 24.
The yearlings, despite the absence
of their captain, Sylvan Campf,
who is out of the game with an
jured hand, showed everything in
the bag, and piled up point after
point on perfect block plays.
The St. Mary's team, which is
one of the strongest prep aggrega
tions in the city, holding wins over
both Eugene and University high
schools, put up a hard fight but
could do nothing to stop the bar
rage of Duckling field goals.
Itourke Stars
The starting line-up for the
frosh included Terjeson and Clay
at forwards; Miller at center; and
Rourke and Berg at guards.
Rourke, who couldn't seem to miss
his long shots, looping them in
from every position on the floor,
was the star of the game. Hq also
led the scoring. Clay and Berg
were both new to the starting five,
but both made creditable showings.
Other games of this nature are
being arranged by Coach "Prink”
Callison for his proteges. The
Ducklings will meet the powerful
DeNeffe aggregation at the Igloo
this afternoon, and some formid
ible opponent will probably be
found to test them in Saturday’s
practice session.
DeNeffe’s Has Experience
The DeNeffe team is a stumbling
block in the way of the yearling
squad in its effort to finish the
season. The independent squad is
made up mostly of ex-college stars
who are veterans at the game, And
should give the freshmen an inter
esting afternoon.
