AUTHORITIES at the Univer
sity of Kansas recently gave
Bill Hargiss, football mentor, the
Willis Smith
uu um.c
of unsatisfactory
conditions on the
squad. But Arch
Ward, sardonic
sports editor of
the Chicago Tri
bune, evidently
thinks otherwise.
Mr. Ward
writes thus about
the nasty attack
on Hargiss:
“The Universi
ty or Kansas has ousted Kill
Hargiss, because of unsatisfac
tory conditions on the squad.
The unsatisfactory conditions
developed after Kansas lost to
Oklahoma, 21 to 6.
“Of course I do not believe for
an instant that the disappoint
ing showing of the Jayhawkers
against one of their leading Big
Six rivals had anything to do
with the dismissal of Hargiss,
because I have read repeatedly
that ithe universities expected
coaches to model the lives of
young men and that victory af
ter all was unimportant.
* * *
"So it must be that the Kansas
academic leaders felt that Hargiss
was not doing a good job of mod
eling
“No doubt there will be some
who will entertain the debasing
thought that Hargiss was re
moved for failing to obtain results
as measured by victory and defeat.
But this Is un-American and, of
course, will be ridiculed by the
right-thinking element.”
Mr. Ward goes on to comment
that you can’t escape the idea that
a coach’s life is no bed of roses.
“Suggestion that he is entitled to
more salary than the average in
structor invariably brings forth a
fierce yelping from educational
circles, but have you ever heard
of a professor being fired because
his boys were out-smarted by a
group from a neighboring school
in the season's big cerebral test ?
"No professor at Kansas had to
send his charges into a stadium
before 35,000 persons to demon
strate their knowledge of the un
derlying causes for the fall of the
Homan republic, or to explain why
do, dare, dedi, datum takes the
dative.
“So what.”

Leo Calland, head man at the
Moscow grid field, must take
great delight in having large
numbers of quarterbacks about
him. On the Vandal traveling
squad are listed four. Evidently
Leo likes to have one handy at
the end of a game for general
bawling-out purposes and with
four figures he can’t miss find
ing one.

Smith, Idaho’s "one-man of
fense,” has proven to be the out
standing ball carrier on the Van
dal squad this year. Against
Montana last week he scored
two touchdowns single-handed
and ripped through the Grizzly
line at leisure. He is playing his
second year on Calland’s eleven.
Besides Smith there is Cy Ger
aghty, star of last year’s frosh
team; George Wilson, two-year
veteran and 1930 champion long
distance scorer; and Genio Plas
tino, a young reserve from the
home of the world's largest pulp
mill, Camas, Washington.
Genio is the lightest man on the
Vandal squad. His weight, as re
corded on the official Idaho ros
ter, is 132 pounds. Wilson is t He
heavyweight of the four, weigh
ing 155. Geraughty and Smith are
listed at 153 and 150 respectively.

Y«*onif*n Beaten 22-20 in
Close Finish
Good Times Made in Final Water
Joust; Sears Is Best

By BEN HACK
Led by Tommy Blankenberg the
Fijis last night took the Yeomen
into camp by the close score of
22 to 20 in the intramural swim
ming finals held in the Gerlinger
hall pool.
The first event on the program,
the 40-yard free style dash, was
won by Smith, of the Yeomen,
with Gummess, of the Fiji outfit
making a close race of it. Atkin
son, also of the Fijis, was third.
In the 40-yard backstroke event
Sears, of the Yeomen, captured the
honors. Seufert, star Fiji merman,
made an exciting finish and won
over Best of the Yeomen, who took
third place.
The 40-yard breaststroke race
proved to be all Blankenberg's who
won from Kirby of the Yeomen.
Whittaker, Yeomen, was third.
Blankenberg, second man swim
ming in the 120 yard relay, got
such a big lead over his opponent
that his team won this event with
apparent ease.
In the 60-yard individual medley
Blankenberg sewed up the meet
for the Fijis winning from Sears,
Yeomen.
Water polo competition will
start Monday afternoon, Mike
Hoyman, swimming coach an

urday in perfect
ing a pass de
fense capable of
stopping the
touted Cougar
aerial game.
Washington state
has a well bal
anced team with
n. strong' running
attack and a flashy passing game.
George Sander, Cougar half- j
back, has b6en rated as the best
passer and punter on the coast
this year. Sander will team with
Ollie Arbelbide at the halfback
posts and with George Theodora
tus, 240 pound fullback, will carry
the brunt of the Cougar attack.
Theodoratus has made quite a rep
utation for himself this year as a
line plunger. Arbelbide plays half
on offense and safety on defense.
, He broke loose in the California
game last week-end and ran back
a punt 45-yards for the only Wash
ington state touchdown, clinching
the game for the Cougars, 7 to 2.
Line Hattie Likely
Line play will probably decide
the winner as both teams have
good fast baekfields. The Wash
ington state line has shown to the
best advantage so far this season,
holding the University of Califor
nia attack for four straight downs
within the four-yard marker.
Dopesters are figuring the Cougars
to win by one touchdown due to
early season showing of both
teams.
The Orangemen are expected to
be at their peak for the clash be
cause of a two weeks rest, while
the Cougars may hit a slight
dump after their hard tussle with
California last Saturday. The Bea
vers will be out to stop Washing
ton State from scoring its fifth
straight victory, the Orangemen's
last win being in 1027 on Bell
field here.
Curly Miller, two-year letter
man, will captain the Beavers.
An electric score board for box
ing was introduced in Chicago at
the Baer-Griffiths bout. A mem
ber of the boxing commission
flashed a light indicating the win
ner of each round.
More Scrimmage
Order of Schulz
For Frosh Squad
Fashion note yearling gridmen
this week will scrimmage, scrim
mage, and then scrimmage some
more. To suggest to some gallop
ing guard or elephantine end on
the frosh squad that this proposed
program is any variation from the
usual would be to court disaster,
but nevertheless the promise of
more and better scrimmages was
Coach Schulz’s ultimatum to his
proteges last night.
The Ducklings worked out on
Hayward field in the absence of
the varsity, who were practicing
on the turf just east of the Igloo,
and after a “mild” sort of cross
country workout., they buckled
down io serious business and pro
ceeded to tear imaginary rook
linemen and backs to pieces.
Tonight will see the last hard
workout before the first “little
big” game, which is scheduled for
tomorrow night over on the rooks’
home field.
Dibrell Williams, then a first
year shortstop for the Philadel
phia Athletics, set a strikeout rec

when he whiffed nine times in the

Van<lals Are Real Threat to
Callison’s Men
Twenty-Seven Webfoots To Leave
For Moscow Today; Squad
Is Crippled
Last Saturday’s bewildering de
feat has given the Oregon Web
foots a different slant on football
which Prin c Callison prays they
will keep through the remainder
of the season. That slant is that
any team in the conference, or out
of it, is a threat until the timer
fires the final shot.
The University of Idaho has not
been a great threat to the Web
foots for some years, but the play
ers are not taking next Saturday's
encounter lightly.
Two distinct events are respon
sible for Oregon’s fear of the Van
dals. First is U. C. L. A.’s sensa
tional 11th hour victory in Port
land last week, and the second Is
the fact that the same Bruin
team was able to beat Idaho only
6 to 0.
Nix on the Passes
Because two long passes that
floated over the heads of Oregon’s
secondary in the dusk decided the
Bruin battle, the Webfoots drilled
more than an hour on pass defense
today. If the Vandals should over
come Oregon Saturday, Prink Cal
lison is determined they will not
do so via the aerial route.
That the lads aren’t discouraged
in the slightest because of the U.
C. L. A. episode was evidenced
from the lively, hustling manner
in which they went through their
paces today. Big Stan Kostka was
back at right half and he stepped
stylishly as he pounded the sec
ond-string line.

these fine tobaccos, after
proper aging and mellowing,
are then given the benefit of
that Lucky Strike purifying
