* __ Nobody’s Business ▼ T _ By BRUCE HAMBY - L. H. GREGORY stated in yesterday morning's Oregon ian: “To the next Pacific coast conference col lege in search of a football coach — and two, or perhaps as many as three Pacific coast conference colleges quite possibly may be in search of a •• • »•-.- » -- football coach af Babe ter the present Holllngbery season ends, I commend the record of Mr. Mike Pecarovich of Gonzaga university at Spokane.” Now what Pacific coast confer ence colleges can Mr. Gregory pos sibly refer? What coaches are in danger of losing their jobs? One way to find out is to take each school and its coach—one by one. * * * 1. Southern California—How ard Jones—nuff said! 2. U. C. L. A.—Bill Spauld ing. He has little to worry about after beating Oregon and Stan ford, and keeping the Bruins at the top of the standings. 3. Stanford Pop Warner. Not much chance that the Palo Alto athletic bosses are going to let the grand old man of coast foot ball go despite his three consec utive beatings at the hands of U. S. C., U. C. L. A. and Wash ington. * * * 4. Washington Jimmy Phe lan. Irish Jimmy is known to be In solid at Seattle. His season was saved by the victory over Stan ford, the tie game with Washing ton State and the close game with California. He still must beat U. C. L. A., however, and give the Trojans a closer battle than Ore gon did- and he has 33 points lee way. 5. Washington State — Babe Hollingbery. Babe is as solid as j the Cougar athletic system—which j is saying something. 6. Montana — Bunny Oakes. They don’t need a new coach up there. They need a couple of doz en athletes to mould into a team. 7. California Bill Ingram. He j had too good a first year in 1931. I Despite losses to Southern Cali- I fornia and Washington State, he j can fortify his position by beating Pop Warner again. a, at at Let's see. There are ten schools in the conference. Seven of them should be content with their present coaches, according to the above deductions. There are three left Oregon State, Idaho and Oregon. Mr. Gregory must have meant those three. * * * Then, again, perhaps our de ductions were wrong. What are yours ? * * * The eleven best football players in the Pacific coast conference who are they? Is Mike Mikulak powerful as George Sander? Is Capt. Bill Morgan as good as Er nie Smith or Tny Blown ? Who is the best center in the circuit? * * # Headers of the Emerald are going to have the opportunity to name the all-coast choices of this column. From the first 25 entries received a composite all star team will be named. That is, the choice for each position will be determined by the num ber of times a certain player is named. If Mikidak gets 15 votes for fullback, he's the all coast fullback us far as this column is concerned. Send in the choices to the Em erald sports department. The first 25 make up the team. * * * This writer tried to get Gene Shields and Johnny Kitzmiller to name their all-conference team the other afternoon. Both refused un til we promised not to print it un der their names. It will be inter esting to see just how close the composite eleven coincides with theirs.

Defeat; GaleTiltNext Webfoots Bark at Work After Rest Squad Comes Through Southern California Without Injury By NED SIMPSON Tearing up much turf and mud, Webfoot gridders, after a two-day layoff, went through the initial paces of their preparation for the next game last night with a vim and vigor that bodes ill for their opponents, the Galloping Gaels of St. Mary’s. The Ducks were somewhat taken aback by the de feat at the hands of the mighty Trojans, and a new spirit of do or-die determination pervades the air. Practice last night started off with the usual limbering up races, followed by a strenuous session of pass defense. Expert observers say this inability to solve the Tro jan passing attack was respon sible for the loss of the game. Coach Callison also drilled his men against Gael plays, and then spent considerable time reorganizing the Duck offensive. We’ve Got a Kicker One weakness that had existed previous to last Saturday’s game has been solved. The Webfoots now have a kicker who—if he doesn’t equal the best in the coun try equals any on the Pacific coast. He is Bob Parke, sopho more quarterback. Parke got off several nice kicks in the short time he was in the game, one of which travelled 72 yards net. Parke also ran the team very creditably while on the field. The squad came through the Trojan tussle without any serious injuries, and every man was out In suit last night. One or two of the men were slightly bruised, but are all in tip-top shape and are raring to go next Thursday. Ducks View Gaels There should be few secrets be tween the Webfoots and the Gaels when they meet next week, for both teams had an opportunity to view tlie other in action last week end. The Ducks watched the Gaels trim U. C. L. A. on Friday, and the Gaels saw the Ducks lose their tail feathers on Saturday. Consequently both teams know more or less what to expect from each other when they meet on Turkey Day. Reports from the Gael camp reveal that the Mor agailh will be in full battle strength when the two teams meet. Hubei und Beasley, who were both injured in the Bruin game, are both on the road to re covery, and are expected to be in the starting lineup. Practice will be at the usual time tonight and Friday, with the prospect that the squad will un dergo two sessions on Saturday. The team leaves here for San Francisco next Tuesday noon. Rivals Honor Stagg CHICAGO (AP) Amos Alonzo Stagg, in his 40th year as Univer sity of Chicago football coach, lias been presented “I” and "P” blan kets by alumni varsity-letter clubs of two of his oldest rivals, Purdue and Illinois. Botli teams proceed ed to trim the Maroon immediate ly after the presentation ceremon ies. Meeting of Prose and Poetry Groit|> Tonight Prose and Poetry group of Phi lomelete will meet tonight at 9 at the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority house to discuss "Inter esting Points in the Life of John Masefield," with Eleanor Higgins, new vice-president, leading.

Good Scouts Are Important Asset To Winners Says Bell By BRIAN BELL lyEW YORK, Nov. 16-—(AP) — ’ Scouting of football games is an art in itself. Assistant coaches spend entire seasons at the task of finding out what the other fel low does and why. In some instances he spends a good share of the fall determin ing what one team does! The information which streams back to the head coach often runs into reams, not only including the diagrams of plays being used but also salient facts concerning each player down to the point of little habits on given plays which might help to signal to the defense what to expect. Bert Bell, assistant to Heine Miller, coach at Temple, has a bulky file, collected over a period of ten years, containing informa tion on almost every team and coach in the country. Bell Uses Data Ho dragged it out before Tem ple played Carnegie Tech. There were copious notes and diagrams. Much of the information had been collected during the former games with the Skibos. There was data on what the players had to say after the games. All this dove tailed in nicely with the fresh re ports of the scouts. “Temple has never beaten Car negie,” Bell pointed out before the game, “and won’t tonight unless the Owl can stop the weak side offense. “Ninety-five per cent of the time Carnegie uses formation right, but its strongest plays go to the left. The plays are in se ries. They all start alike. They all look alike. The players go in the same direction on each play in a series, but the ball doesn’t follow the same course.” Game Is Tie That is what notes on a given team over a long period of time showed. They represented months J of work, yet the game ended in a 7-to-7 tie. Bell explained this before the game. “Carnegie’s team is a lit tle younger than last year anil a little less experienced. But expe rience doesn't mean anything un less it's used. The wrong play at the right time by either team may mean the ball game.” Knute Rockne had a happy fac ulty of taking diagrams of oppo nents’ plays and from them evolve all manner of possible variations. He put them into effect against the varsity in order to be prepared for possible surprises. Offense Important Much of the value of scouting often is lost because of failure to pick out the important details of an opponent’s offense. There is the story of the scout who sent volumes of data on a team. He arrived back in town while the game was in progress. He rushed to the field to find his eleven badly beaten. “What’s the matter, coach,” he shouted, as he rushed to the bench, “didn’t you get my notes?” The opponents scored again as he arrived. “Yeh, I gdt ’em,” growled tne head mentor, shaking a fist full of data at the scout, “but I didn’t get that reverse fig ured out until just now.” Jensen-Pete Mat Go Promises Full House A t A rmory Thor Jensen, Elkton bad man, and Wildcat Pete of Eugene have been matched for the feature bout on Herb Owen’s wrestling card at the Armory tonight. The signing of both men brought to a close several years’ campaigning for the match to a close. Jensen's bad name had preceded him to Eugene several years ago and lo cal fight promoters would not sign him up. The match will be a natural as far as the fans are concerned and the advance sale promises a full house. Art O'Reilly, University of Ore gon student, will take on an un named opponent in the 30-minute opener. mntrtq TONIGHT—AT GUILD THEATRE The Eugene Premiere of ONCE IN A LIFETIME Curtain at 8:15 Box ofi'ieo opens at 9:45 A. M. For reservations call 3300—Local 216 Bronco Glee Club Scores Smashing Win Over Gaels OAKLAND, Cal. (AP)—It has been ten years since Santa Clara university has defeated its traditional rival, St. Mary’s college, at football, but the Broncos have it on the Gallop ing Gaels in one particular. At an appointment to record St. Mary’s "On to Victory” song for loud speaker rallies and broadcasting, the Gael glee club was late. The Santa Clara glee club quartet happened to be in the studio, and after a few hurried rehearsals substituted in sing ing the refrain. Two Quintets Win In Donut Hoop Games Spina Chi, A.T.O Advance! Notch Toward Title Sigma Pi Tail, Delta Tali Dplta Defeated; Palmer and Schenk Stars “A” League Schedule Today 4:00 P. M. Sherry Ross hall vs. Theta Chi. 4:40 P. M. Phi Sigma Kappa vs. Sigma Alpha Mu. 5:20 P. M. Sigma hall vs. Kappa Sigma. Sigma Pi Tau and A. T. O. pro vided intramural followers with plenty of thrills, spills, and ex citement in their annual grudge battle with A. T. O., winning by the narrow score of 18 to 14. In the other donut game last night Sigma Chi trounced Delta Tau Delta 20 to 11. The first contest between S. P. T. and A. T. O. was very well played and had the spectators and players on edge from beginning to end. George Schenk nearly won for Sigma Pi Tau when he started shooting from the center of the floor. He was the high point man of the game and was a difficult man to check. The strong Sigma Chi quintet won an easy game from Delta Tau Delta by a 20-11 score. The win ners had a great heighth advan tage. The Delts tried hard to break through the Sigma Chi de fense but did not prove themselves to be very dangerous. Palmer, playing center for Sigma Chi and by far the tallest man in the game, was the outstanding court per former. Burrell Will Speak Professor Orin K. Burrell, of the business administration school, will speak to the Social Science club next Monday, November 21, at the Faculty club on the subject: "Some Financial and Monetary Aspects of the Depression.’’ Boilermaker One of the big reasons for Pur due's success this year is Bill Fehring, who plays a mean game at tackle for the Boilermakers. Rushing Passer Is Best Defense, Says Friedman CLEVELAND, O. (API—Rush ing the passer is the best defense of the forward passing game, Benny Friedman, former Univer sity of Michigan football star, said in an interview here. “There are three penalties for rushing the kicker, but the passer has no protection in the rules,” Friedman explained. “The passer, to do his job correctly, had to be relaxed. He cannot tense his mus cles for impact.” Friedman, now playing profes sionally, disclosed other ideas about forward passing. A ball should not be thrown harder than is necessary to get it to a given spot, he said, and should be thrown so that it will drop from its highest arch softly into the re ceiver's hands. J. A. Simmons, of Madison coun ty, Ohio, has an English walnut tree which has borne fruit for the past 50 years. Morgan, Kostka Given Places on All-coast Squad Capt. Bill Morgan and Stan Kostka, Webfoot grid stars, were named as All-Coast choices last week by a group of sport writers gathered in Los Angeles for the St. Mary’s-U. C. L. A. game. The team picked by the writers includes: , Ends—Nisbet, Washington, and Palmer, Southern California. Tackles—Smith, Southern Cali fornia, and Morgan, Oregon. Guards—Corbus, Stanford, Ste- . ponovich, St. Mary’s. Center—Coates, U. C. L. A. Quarter—Griffith, Southern Cal ifornia. Halfbacks—Kostka, Oregon, and Schaldach, California. Fullback—Angelo Brovelli, St. Mary’s. Ernie Smith and Angelo Bro velli are given the best chances of any Pacific Coast players to make All-American. The choice of Ernie Smith over Capt. Tay Brown of Southern Cal ifornia caused much criticism from the Trojan camp. Many be lieve that Brown's assignment does not allow him to look spec tacular, but that he really is the more deserving of the two. How ard Jones, coach, will not discuss the issue between his two star tackles. Musicians To Perform Over Radio Broadcast Tonight's program over KOAC, at 8:30, presents Beulah Wynd Long, violinist, and Helene Ferris, pianist, as soloists, and Marguer ite Bryson as accompanist.

Her second and third group will include “Sea Lily,” Cator, "Spanya,” Wright, “Old P„efrain,” Kreisler, and “Through the Snow,” Burleigh. Miss Ferris's numbers on the program are “Fantasy Piece” from Opus 12 (called “Griller”) by Schumann, “Prelude in D flat,” Chopin, and “Etude Migrfon” by Edward Shutt. THE JUGGERNAUT OF THE JUNGLE "Nature in the Raw"— as por trayed by the famous animal painter, Paul Bransom... in spired by the savage charge of the African rhinoceros crashing through the untamed jungle. "Na • ture in the Raw is Seldom Mild” — and raw tobaccos have no place in cigarettes. Copr. 1933. Th« Am«ric«o Tobacco Ca No raw tobaccos in Luckies —that’s why they’re so mild VUTE buy the finest, the v very finest tobaccos in all the world—but that does not explain why folks everywhere regard Lucky Strike as the mildest ciga rette. The fact is,we never overlook the truth that “Nature in the Raw is i Seldom Mild”—so these fine tobaccos, after proper aging and mellowing, are then given the benefit of that Lucky Strike purify ing process, described by the words—"It’s toasted”. That’s why folks in every city, town and hamlet say that Luckies are such mild cigarettes. “It’s toasted” That package of mild Luckies
