    Morgan Named
On C.W. Ball’s
All-Star Team
Big Tackle Only Oregon
Man To Plaee
FOUR TROJANS RATE
Homer Griffith, U. S. C. Threat,
Selected as Coast’s
Foremost Player
Honor for Bill
VEW YORK, Nov. 28.—(Spe
cial)—Elmer William Mor
gan, captain of the University
of Oregon football team, was
accorded honorable mention on
the United Press all-American
football team today. Morgan
was the only Oregon player to
win such an honor.
By CRYSTAL W. BALL
(Football Master Mind)
Per Bruce Hamby
Now that I have given my pub
lic the benefit of my unrivaled
football knowledge throughout a
long and spectacular season, I
deftly proceed to the selection of
my annual all-star team for the
Pacific coast. Although I realize
that this comes some few days af
ter other noted strategists have
made their choices, I do not hesi
tate to say that my team repre
sents the ultimate in football skill,
talent, technique and judgment.
No one can doubt but that the
eleven men I name today are the
outstanding players on the Pacific
slope.
I am glad to announce that one
of my choices is Bill Morgan, Ore
gon’s heroic tackle and captain.
The other ten are as follows: Nis
bet and Palmer, ends; Brown,
tackle; Rosenberg and Corbus,
guards; Oliver, center; Griffith,
quarterback; Sander and Krause,
halfbacks; Brovelli, fullback. The
college .affiliations of these young
gentlemen will be found in a tab
ulated box elsewhere on this page.
Four of them are from Southern
California, and one each from
Oregon, St. Mary’s, Gonzaga,
Washington State college and
Stanford university and Washing
ton.
Griffith Best of All
In my opinion the foremost
players on the above team are
Homer Griffith, dashing quarter
back of the U. S. C. Trojans;
George Sander, triple-threater of
Washington State, and David Nis
bet, talented Washington end.
They have been consistently good
all season.
If any one of the three were to
be classed as the best, I would
name Griffith. Leading scorer of
the Pacific coast conference, he
was a brilliant defensive player,
a good blocker, an accurate pass
er and always a threat when car
rying the ball. His choice of plays
for the Trojans needs no praise;
the record of Howard Jones’ elev
en is enough commendation.
Ha! Ha! Someone Helped
Now in choosing this unusual
and outstanding all-coast team I
did not try to do all the work my
self. I called in the Emerald foot
ball board—four gentlemen who
know football. In Los Angeles
was stationed George Richard
Eckman, the dashing basketball
player and news sleuth here last
year, but now married and more
qualified to look over the south
• ern teams of U. S. C. and U. C. L.
A. William Jennings Reinhart,
Major Cavanaugh’s little helper,
looked over the St. Mary’s, Cali
fornia and Stanford elevens for
me.

Campus Yo Yo-ists Given Big
Chance To Cop Prise Money
By BARNEY CLARK
Yo Yo artistes to the fore! Your
country needs you.
Well, perhaps not your country,
if we must be technical; but at
least a splendid opportunity is of
fered you, wherein you may bring
glory to your school and a little
pecuniary affluence to yourself, no
less.
This aforementioned opportun
ity takes the form of contest spon
sored by the Register-Guard, Mc
Morran and Washburne, and the
Oregon News company, to deter
mine the champion Yo Yo yanker
of Lane county. The amount of
glory to be derived is uncertain,
but the monetary consideration is
satisfactorily definite.
, Ten bucks goes to the member
of the male sex who comes under
the wire first. Second best gets
five bones, and three iron men go
with the write ribbon. The unfair
sex comes in for two prizes, $5
and $2.
The contest will continue
through a bitter series of elimina
tion contests from November 28
to December 24, the final day. The
Portland champion will be import
ed on December 3 to demonstrate
a few super-special whirls in the
McMorran and Washburne audi
torium to help add spice to the lo
cal talent's battle, and then they’re
off to the races. One gag only is
included in the specifications; the
instrument used must be a Duncan
Yo Yo.
A CURE FOR ATHLETIC ILLS
Oregon Intercollegiate Athletic Department Needs Administrative Head to Handle
Situation—Emerald Suggests Director of Athletic**—No Individual Named.
rpHERE recently was appointed
-*■ a commtttee to revise the A
S. U. O. constitution. This paper
foresees for that committee an op
portunity to be of immeasurable
service to the University of Ore
gon.
An unbiased observation of the
present system of administrating
intercollegiate athletics here leaves
little doubt that a thorough re
vision thereof is necessary. It is
the emphatic opinion of the Em
erald that such a revision would
be of material benefit to all con
cerned. The reasons are obvious
and clear.
The body which governs the op
erations of athlefics here is known
as the “athletic committee.” It is
a ramification of, and subordinate
to, the executive council. The du
ties of this committee are outlined
as follows in Article III of the
student body constitution:
“This committee shall be a sub
committee of the executive Coun
cil. It shall keep itself informed
on athletic problems and policies
of the association and shall make
recommendations to the executive
council on these matters. This
committee shall propose and sub
mit budgets for all athletics to the
finance committee. Further, it
shall recommend to the executive
council the names of such persons
as in its judgment are qualified
for the positions of coacshes,
trainers, student managers and
all others connected with athlet
ics.”
• * *
The personnel of this group, to
which so much authority and
power is entrusted, is composed at
present of the following persons:
a professor of English, whose long
personal contact with athletic af
fairs makes him the lone member
of the committee qualified to be
in such a position; a prominent
Eugene doctor, who is an alumnus
of the University; three Oregon
students and the graduate mana
ger and his two assistants. The
latter trio are non-voting mem
bers.
* * *
This paper does not believe the
above group is sufficiently ac
quainted with, and Informed on,’
athletic problems to conduct tlje
intercollegiate athletic depart
ment of the University of Ore
gon. It is commendable of thfe
committee members to be so
willing to devote their tiine anf
efforts to the solving of Or( -
gon's athletic quandaries, bu t
the Emerald is of the firm opin
ion that the obligations place I
upon them are literally Imposi
tions, because of their unfamll>
iarity with modern athletic tech
nique and direction. This is in
tended as no slur against the in
dividual persons on the commits
tee. It merely is believed that
the majority of them have been
asked to fulfill a task which
they are not sufficiently pre
pared to accomplish.
* * *
Intercollegiate athletics have
passed the embryo stage. Thejy
Pave become what virtually
amounts to an integral depart
ment of the University. On the
basketball, football, baseball and
track teams are young men who
hope to make athletic coaching
their life careers, even as students
in the law school intend to prac
tice before the bar.
Yet, the selection of the athlet
ic employees, the dictating of ath
letic policies, incongruously is
left to persons for the most part
unfamiliar with the responsibili
ties which become incumbent upon
them as soon as they are appoint
ed to the athletic committee. Can
you imagine such a committee dic
tating the policies of the history
department ? Is it feasible to pic
ture this group employing the pro
fessors of the art school?
Although it sounds ridiculous
when set down in cold type, there
is a direct analogy between the
situations. The members of the
student body which we comprise
come to college to prepare them
selves for careers in specific oc
cupations—for example, law, jour
nalism, medicine, art, music, and
a score of others. Here to assist
them in the obtaining of this
knowledge are trained men, em
ployed for that particular purpose.
* * *
As mentioned previously, the
greater portion of Oregon’s ath
letes are preparing themselves for
careers as coaches. This being
carefully considered, is it fair to
them to intrust the supervision
and administration of the athletic
system to a committee obviously
unsuited to dispose of such obli

the plait, tijat, the members of the
freshmati military classes were
totting a considerable interest in
the work, and that it is Hoped
thit the awards will further their
enthusiasm, as well as reward the
most deserving members.
The purpose of Scabbard and
Blade is to defend American tra
ditions and ideals, promote the in
terests of ROTC training, preserve
and develop the essential qualities
of good and efficient officers and
to spread intelligent information
concerning the military require
ments of the country.
Such systems of awards have
been used by other chapters of the
society, and have served to fur
ther military interest. This will be
the local chapter’s inauguration of
such a plan which may be carried
out each year.
Students Should
Register Autos
Two hundred ana forty - six
windshield stickers have been is
sued by the automobile enforce
ment bureau to students driving
registered cars.
There are also 169 students who
have registered their cars in com
pliance with the University regu
lations on student driving, but who
have not yet taken out their
stickers.
A number of cars are being
driven on the campus at present
that are not registered, according
to O. L. Rhipesmith, enforcement
officer. These students are sub
ject to punishment under the sys
tem of modified enforcement now
in effect. Any car driven often by
the student must be registered at
the auto enforcement office in the
back of Friendly hall. No charge
is made for this registration.

Evans Presents

In Last Program
By MARGARET STAUFF
It was with a feeling of reluc
tance that the audience left the
Music auditorium Sunday after
noon after John Stark Evans pre
sented the last of a series of 10
organ concerts, which each week
have thrilled large numbers of
University students and towns
people. The programs have been
well balanced and charmingly pre
sented, and offered a restful twi
light hour of peace, undisturbed
even by applause, which often
mars enjoyment otherwise com
plete. Not only through their pre
sentation of the best in music, but
because through the program
notes appreciation is stimulated
and directed, these concerts have
become an invaluable part of Uni
versity life, and it is hoped that
they may be continued later in the
year.
Some of the programs stressed a
particular type of music, such as
the modern French, or the Scan
dinavian, while in others the in

A. Cannon Works Full Time,
Yet Is Elected To Senior Six
By ELINOR HENRY
Susie is an elderly lady, and she
needs her gallon of gas for every
13 miles she travels. Susie is very
respectable. She’s been stuck in
some of the best mudholes of the
state. She’s chugged gallantly up
narrow mountain roads and sped
noisily down the straightaway of
a trackless beach. In short, Susie
is Arthur Monroe Cannon’s Buick
roadster. And, he claims, she
keeps him wo king 24 hours a day
for her support.
"Art” Cannon, senior in business
administration, has been carrying
from 16 to 19 hours a term. Mister
Cannon, statistician, is working a
full eight-hour day now. Spring
term he carried 19 hours and
worked 50 hours a week. He has
averaged eight hours a day all
through his University career.
