T.T’S UNFORTUNATE that the
*- Oregon-U. C. L. A. game in
Portland this Saturday comes so
soon after the
Webfoot - Husky
encounter.
There’s no doubt
that next Satur
day’s game will
be even more ex
citing than the
Washington bat
tle.
The Bruins
from the West
wood Hills are
Butch Morse laying for Ore
gon and dont' make any mistake
about it. For four years, since :
their entrance into the Pacific't
Coast conference, the Bruins have ;
pointed for the Webfoots. Bat
each year they have been handi
capped by the lack of good re
serves and have been forced to
rely mainly upon defensive foot
ball.
This year, according to reliable
information from the South, Bill
Spaulding has a group of great j
ball-carriers. Even with Len
Bergdahl, star quarterback, out!
with a chipped elbow bone, Bruin
fans are confident that Walt \
Clark, Joe Keeble, “Pants” Lives
ly, and Robby Decker can punch
holes in the Oregon line.
* * *
■
According to Jack O’Brien, Ore-1
gon’s head scout, Bergdahl is one
gent Oregon v/ill have to watch if
he gets into the lineup next Sat
urday. Last year when Oregon
met the Bruins in Los Angeles i
Len was on the sidelines with a J
similar injury to the one now |
bothering him. He cracked his1
elbow bone early in practice this i
year and has not played in a ma
jor game. He almost single-hand
ed defeated St. Mary’s last year
when the Bruins upset them 12
to 0. That was after the Gaels
had knocked over Southern Cali
fornia. He is a triple-threat,
back, but his passing ability is
his chief weapon.
* * *
Oregon vs. Louisiana at New
Orleans on December 10. No, this
is not a fact, but according to
rumor, the game has been tenta
tively scheduled. Closing of ar
rangements depend upon Oregon’s
showing in the next few games,
according to those who claim to |
know. If such a game is added |
to the varsity list it will only add '
to the toughest schedule an Ore- 11
gon football team has ever faced. '
Following next Saturday’s game, j'
the Webfoots must play Idaho,
Gonzaga, Oregon State, U. S. C.
and St. Mary's.
* »i« *
Butch Morse, Portland's only
contribution to the varsity squad,
may be playing in Mikulak's posi- !
tion next Saturday. Last night '
Prink Callison moved him into the
line-backing berth as a replace-: ■
ment for Howard Bobbitt, slated
to start In place of Mikulak. A i
few more changes and Butch will
have expereince at all positions, j
He started as a guard in Benson (
Tech, was moved to end as a
freshman last year and now
breaks into the backfield. He
claims he doesn't like his new job, [
however.

The Finnish Finish
This picture, snapped at the 10th Olympic games this summer, shows Ralph Hill, U. S. A., being
nosed out by Lauri Lehtinen, Finland, in the feature race of the games, the 5,000-metre run. Track ex
perts claim Hill ,a University of Oregon graduate, was fouled by the Finnish star in the home stretch.
Hill's modest demeanor won for him the plaudits of the crowd.
Mi kulak Hopeful,
Miller Has Doubt
Mike Mikulak, Oregon’s roaring
fullback, hasn't given lip all hopes
of getting into the game with U.
C. L. A, .Saturday in spite of hav
ing a badly wrenched knee.
The plaster cast was removed
yesterday, and heat lamp treat
ments are being administered in
the hope of getting the strained
muscles baked into shape. Mike
thinks that once he is allowed to
leave his bed in the infirmary and
walk upon the injured member, it
will get back into condition soon
enough for him to take a hand in
the struggle. Dr. Fred N. Miller,
head of the University health ser
vice, entertains no such hopes.

cause the faculty must come laden
with gifts for the Faculty club.
That is to say (quote Flute's

“Find an item that you can no

which may (possibly) fit in at the
club. Suggestions: ash trays and
ash trays, Victorian doflops, com
mon nieknacks, furniture, books,
bottles, husbands, etc.’’
This will be all right. We col

Donut Dope
By BEN BACK
In last night’s meet the Fiji
team showed some real class in
breaking two all-time records in
the 00-yard individual medley and
in the 120-yard relay.
The Fijis have a real star in
this boy Tom Blankenberg. Blan
kenberg was No. 1 man on the
Pacific Northwest Olympic try-out
team and has done the breast
stroke in just a second over the
national amateur record.
When Simpson of the Beta out
fit and Blankenberg get together,
if they do, this school should see
a thrilling breast-stroke contest.
These swimming meets in which
donut, enthusiasts take part some
times have a tendency to become
highly competitive, especially when
the swimmers have a big audience
of friends or foes.
This past week saw a good group
of mermen compete for their re
spective living organizations with
not one swimmer being of medio
cre ability.
Much of the success of giving
the meets a good start this week
depended on Coach Mike Hoyman,
who ran each meet within the
scheduled time limits.
* * *
Ned Simpson, Beta ace, gave
the best individual performance of
the lot, annexing two first places
in individual competition and prac
tically winning the relay by him
self. Simpson is a real threat in
any race.
* * *
The S. A. E. team at the present
writing holds the team scoring
record with a total of 39 points
against Alpha Upsilon, who was
only able to score three markers.
S. A. E. has a well-balanced ag
gregation and should prove to be
especially dangerous in coming
meets.

Chi Psi and Sijjrna Pi Tail Also
Victorious in Day’s
Matches
Two all-time intramural swim
ming records were broken by the
Fiji’s yesterday as Tom Blanken
berg, steller breaststroker, and
their crack relay team nosed out
the Kappa Sig boys by a score of
27 to 15. The new records are the
CO-yard individual medley and the
120-yard medley.
The first meet on last night’s
program was a literal walk-away
for Chi Psi, who convincingly
spanked the boys from Sigma Chi
to the tune of 37 to 5. Reissmuller
was the Chi Psi star as he won
the 60-yard individual medley in
a thrilling race. Other Chi Psi
stars were Case, Travis, and
Morden. Palmer was a point win
ner for Sigma Chi.
The boys from Sigma Pi Tau
proved conclusively that they
could win meets without gaining
them through the forfeit route
when they defeated Delta Tau
Delta 37 to 5 in the second meet
on yesterday’s schedule. This
victory is the second for the- S. P.
T.’s. They gained their last tri
umph by forfeit from Omega hall.
Hegdahl was the big shot on the
S. P. T. team by winning a first
place in the 40-yard free style, a
first in the 60-yard individual
medley, and a second in the 40
yard back-stroke.
The third meet was by far the
most exciting because Kappa Sig
made such a fight of what ap
peared to be a sure rout. Kappa

gation of footers as did the Fiji’s

Oregon Yeomen
Start Basketball
With intramural sports getting
under way in the form of swim
mfng, the Oregon Yeomen, organ
ization of independent men, are
laying plans for the opening of the
basketball season.
As a result, all men interested
in playiijg for the organization are
asked to report on the maple court
in the men’s gym at 11 o’clock Sat
urday, states Ed “Smiling" Good
nough, sports manager.
Prospects of a repetition of last
year's champion performance is
dimmer due to the loss of the stel- j
lar Ingram Kjosness but Del Thom, j
Bob “Happy" Chatterton, Walt1
Wicks, and Sam Watson, four of
last year's veterans, are on hand
to repeat, if possible.
Keeble Star Back
Of Bruin Machine
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Oct. 10.—
According to tabulation of yard
age gained by U. C. L. A. ball
carriers in two opening games on
the schedule, “Jolting Joe” Keeble,
star junior fullback, has advanced
the ball 64 yards further than all
Westwood backs combined, and
places second in average gain per
try.
In 61 attempts he totaled 252
yards, carried the ball 17 times for
an average of 4.05 yards, while
Walter Clark, left halfback, leads
with 4.5 yards gained on each of
ten trips with the ball.
The tabulation shows that the
Bruins gained 415 yards against
the combined total of 176 yards
for their opponents.
and the swimmers put on a real
show for their benefit. •
Tom Blankenberg proved his
ability by shattering the all-time
intramural record in the 60-yard
individual medley. The Fiji relay
team with Blankenberg as anchor
man also established a new mark
in the 120-yard medley.
Frosh Squad
Looks Better
In Practice
Ducklings Are Drilled
Under Lights
Indians To Arrive Tomorrow for
Football Battle With
Yearlings
By NED SIMPSON
Under the lights of Hayward field
The freshman gridsters stood,
And midst the glare and rain, by
gosh,
They looked exceedingly good.
This ditty explains the reactions
of the few spectators who viewed
the frosh workout last night on
Hayward field. With, only one
more day of practice before their
game with the Chemawa Indians,
the yearlings showed so much im
provement in their playing that
the aforementioned spectators be
came very cheerful over the pros
pects for Friday night's game.
Yesterday afternoon, instead of
having practice at the usual time,
Coach Schulz gave the baby Web
foots some concentrated skull
practice, and announced that reg
ular practice would take place un
der the floodlights. Many of the
men had never played under arti
ficial lighting before, making this
deviation from the usual schedule
almost compulsory.
No Lineup Announced
No lineup has been announced,
but it is probable that the combin
ation that has been working to
gether the past few nights will
start the game. In this group are
Torrence and Wright, ends; Niel
son and Bennison, tackles; Lundin
and Hawn at the guards, with the
center position still undecided. In
the backfield the lineup will prob
ably find McCredie at quarter,
Leemans and Arey at the halves,
and Milligan at full.
The Indian team is expected to
No More Blocked

Cry of Cougars
WASHINGTON STATE COL
LEGE, Pullman, Oct. 12—“There'll
1 be no more blocked punts!-’ That
from Babe Hollingbery and it has
a real meaning. Four ruined kicks
I spoiled Washington State’s game
against Southern California last
week and were directly responsi
ble for two of the three Trojan
j touchdowns.
Four years ago a similar disas
ter occurred in the University of
j California game. The Golden Bears
' smeared five of the Cougar punts
j as they won 13 to 3. Not another
I kick was blocked on Washington
State that year and but a very few
since that time until last week.
Coach Hollingbery is doing some
revision in his backfield with a
view of getting greater power
than the Cougars showed against
U. S. C., when they counted more
first downs than the mighty Tro
jans.
San Colburn, 20C-pound fullback
I last year, has been moved to a
halfback position. W’ith George
Theodoratos, 240-pound Greek, at
fullback and Colburn at halfback,
the Cougars will present the power
threat of a steam roller. Phil Sar
boe, classy quarterback has thrown
his crutches away and will play
against California next Saturday
at Berkeley.
