UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1933_ VOLUME XXXV Page 4 Our Si<Je of It By MALCOLM BAUER ‘Closed Doors'1 for All Duck Workouts Now; Let Gene See a Game SECRET practices bid fair to be ^ the order of the day for Ore gon's varsity gridmen for the next Gene Shields week. prime uai lison has been throwing his first stringers and re serves against the husky fresh man squad in late scrimmages ev ery night this week, and with the Washington clash only one week away Prink is determined that his aggregation show more polish than it displayed against Gonzaga in Spokane last Saturday. Since the Webfoot coach is not planning on using much of his newly formed strategy on the Co lumbia Cliffdwellers in their game on Hayward field tomorrow, the lowly frosh are the “fall guys,’’ and must act as cannon fodder for the heavier regulars. The year lings are beginning to respect the plunging prowess of “Iron Mike" Mikulak, and the hard driving of Bernie Hughes and Biff Nillson, not to mention the rough handling they receive at the hands of the rest of the varsity candidates. Some fans may be surprised to hear that the last Oregon-Wash ington game witnessed by Gene Shields, Webfoot line coach and scout, was that in 1927. For the past five years, in fact, all dur ing the dominance of Webfoot over Husky, Shields has been on scout ing duty to distant parts at the time of the big game. This year the husky line mentor wants to see the game, but kick-off time may find him in Los Angeles, Seat tle, or Timbuctoo. * * * Manager Jones of the McDonald theater has a great faith in hu man prophesy. As an additional offer in connection with the cur rqpt contest conducted by the Eu gene Y.M.C.A. and the Register Guard in which a membership in the former organization is awarded to any person correctly picking the winners of ten designated football games to be played throughout the country this Saturday, Mr. Jones says he will “award ten passes to the McDonald theater to any one who not only chooses the winners, but also correctly guesses the score of each contest." Crystal Ball, Jr., will gladly pay $1000 in pennies to any one who can perform this feat of seeing in to the future; that is, if the pro phet will be kind enough to let him in on it in time to make his famous predictions for Saturday’s Emerald. • * * Tomorrow is the night, sport fans, when you can all put on your best suit and jaunt up to the Igloo where you will see the best of Ore gon's footballers in action . . . not CtiOUe OWN€0 • €UC€N€( OWN | O L O N I A I • I v« ALOC is mm 20 STAR * DOUBLE BILL w noth 15c Shows lAKGH/ AT THE MUSICAL PANIC OF 1933 " |i((«r Thai "The Big Broadcast" Infer EiafkKiai PLUS 4 MOKE BIG STARS ROBERT MONTGOMERY SALLY EILERS MADE ON BROADWAY Frosh Squad To Play Sons In Initial Tilt Baby Ducks Have Many Oul-of-Stale Men Irv Schulz anti Bill Reinhart Pick Yearlings for Prospective Grid Positions With the first game against Southern Oregon normal one week I away, the frosh football squad has begun to look less like a labor dem onstration and to show promise of producing a few linemen and backs | within the next seven days. Irv Schulz, who with Bill Rein hart is coaching the squad, has an nounced a tentative list of out standing prospects for each posi tion. Although only about half of the original turnout of 80 are now to be seen in practice, those men tioned are still encountering plen ty of competition for team posi tions, Schulfc said. The team, as outlined by Schulz, will be heavy at tackle and full back positions, not too heavy in the guards, and light at center, end and halfback posts. The prospects include: Joe Mur ray, Seattle, left end. Murray is injured at the present time, but will be back later. Pat Fury, Sandpoint, Idaho, left tackle; Dale Hardesty of Wendling, Ore., and Alan Davis of Portland, lend the Oregonian touch to an otherwise out-of-sCate left v/ing by being the outstanding choices for left guard; John Farrar, San Francisco, cen ter; Morris Burchard, Tillamook, a former tackle, will find competi tion from John Augustitus of East Lentanket, New Jersey, for the right guard position, two other candidates for this post, Fred Hunt, Burlingame, Cal., and Wen dell Moore, Merrill, Ore., being eliminated by injury. Del Bjork, Astoria, and Len McAdams, Mon rovia, Cal., are good bets’ at right tackle. Alan Wilson of Spokane, Wash., is after the right wing po sition, another candidate for end being Frank Cross" of Salem. Mike Delmonico came all the way from Hazelton, Pa., to com pete with Dick Bishop, Eugene, for fullback honors. Elton Owen, who was a team-mate of Bishop in high school is fighting it out with Phil Penn, former Jefferson high, Port land, player, for quarter. Southern Oregon provides two candidates for half, and both of them are Mil lers. They are Ken Miller, Oak land, Ore., high school track star and Aaron Miller of Medford. Bill F. Nye of Harrisburg, Pa., and El more Borden, Eugene, are also pos sible halfbacks. at tackling anti blocking, mind you, but swishing and swirling’ with the -lady of their choice . . . anyway, what’s the difference ? The athletes are 'throwing the party, and a big time is on the slate if any stock can be taken in show room talk these days. It seems to b.e the “O" ball and not the Wash ington game that is causing most worry to the moleskin Lotharios. Swinging around the conference: Idaho's poor showing at Seattle last week-end is causing Moscow dopesters to banner the Vandals as "mid-season threats” . . . Cal land's squad was bailed as the greatest ever in the Idaho coun try before the season opened, but now the ballyhoo has taken on an other tone . . . Carl Jorgensen, 200-pound St. Mary's tackle is one of the outstanding conversation kickers in America. The big Gael has kicked 10 extra points in his college career, and has missed but two . . . More Bruin students than Stanford rooters viewed the U. C. L. A.-Indian clash at Palo Alto September 30. Why? Because the Cardinal school was not in aca demic session until the Monday following the game. MWOKALD 12:.S0 Continuous 11:80 INT1I.

Gaels and Bears To Mix in Annual (dash at Berkeley “Slip” Mulligan Hints at Chance For Reserves Against Frisco Dons SATNT MARY'S COLLEGE, Oct. 5. Eighty thousand grid fans will pack the California Memorial stadium in Berkeley Saturday aft ernoon to watch the Galloping Gaels battle the Bears in their twenty-first annual game. After a week of rest a,fter the University of San Francisco game, the Moragans under the direction of Coach Edward P. "Slip" Madi gan and his assistants are under- j going a strenuous week of prac- j tice in preparation for Saturday's j tilt. The fine showing of tjie re-! serves in last week’s game with the Dons pleased Madigan, and he indicated that there may be some changes in the starting lineup for the California game. The two institutions have met at football 20 limes, with the Gaels on the short end, winning four arid tying two games. In the 12 years Madigan has been at Saint Mary's they have won twice and tied a like number. Last year’s upset tie has made the Gael men tor wary upon entering the annual j tilt. * • » Women’s Association Initiates Mew Members Initiation of new members into the Woman’s Athletic association was held yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock in the woman's lounge, lerlinger hall.

Deady and old libt Thornhill Boasts Promising Gridiron Squad at Stanford Editor’s note: This is the | sixth of a series of articles written for the Emerald by Mr. Miller concerning the pros pects of the various members of the Pacific Coast conference on the gridiron this fall.) By JACK MILLER If ever a coach was blessed with a promising array of sophomores this blessing surely falls on Claude i lay liiuniriiii who this yea succeeds “Pop' Warner as coacl of the Lelam Stanford eleven The Indians an the darkhorse o the conference this year. From the 193: squad the Cardin als lost 14 letter men, six of then i Bobby Grayson regulars. The tackles and ends will be the hardest for the popu lar Stanford coach to replace. In the U.C.L.A. combat last Saturday, which Thornhill’s men won 3 to 0, it appeared that the end and tack le situations were well taken care of. Jim “Monk” Moscrip, a 175 pound sophomore, and Phil Nor gard, 180-pound, reserve from two years ago, will hold down the right and left flank positions, respect ively. As a member of the unde feated frosh eleven last year Mos crip showed promise of developing into a first-class wingman, and to date has lived up to expectations playing all sixty minutes of the Bruin game. Jim Palamountain, 200-pound re serve on last year’s squad, and Callaway, also a 200-pounder, at present are getting the starting call. Drown, Holwerda and Ed Letunich, who has had some var sity experience, are capable alter nates. All these boys are, as yet, green but do show plenty of prom ise. Captain Bill Corbus, all-Ameri can guard and student body prexy, leads the list of guard candidates. Bill is a handsome 190-pound •youth who probably along with Post and Robesky, is one of the greatest guards in the history of the Palo Alto institution. It was Corbus’ place kick which won the U.C.L.A. contest for the Stanford ites. Bob O'Connor, 186 pounds, who subbed last year, is holding down the other guard post. The smiling Irish boy played four quar ters of fighting football against . the Bruins. Bill Bates, 190-pound center, has played good consistent ball so far this season, and will probably keep the starting job. When the going gets tough Tiny can send in Alf Brandin, who played tackle on last year’s frosh team. Bill Sim, 185, a thumping buck er of adamant lines, who played half last year, has been, converted into a quarterback by ever-smil ing Thornhill. This tow-headed youth from Sacramento should prove to “be a real field general ' for the Indians. Earl Hoos, 186 pounds, who called signals for the , Papooses last year, saw lots of ac • tion last Saturday and looke.d ex ; ceptionally good. He will make Sim fight hard for the starting job. Bob Maentz, a brilliant half of ■ two seasons ago who' was injured early in the 193.2 campaign, is at 1 present holding down the right half job. Bob Hamilton, 170-pound soph, who is rated as the best blocker on the Stanford farm, is starting in at the other half. Reis . ner and Ken Afflerbaugh, the Po , mona streak has two years of ex 1 perience, may oust either of these boys from the regular jobs. Affler baugh should have a great season. 3 With the present crop of full ,. back material that Thornhill has ^ to work with the fans are expect ARROW SHIRTS — at — ERIC MERRELL “Clothes for Men" i r Elliott’s Grocery - and Delicatessen If it’s good to eat we have it. We give S. and H. Green Stamps Phone 95 13th and Patterson ing another Ernie Nevers this year. With such men as Jack Hillman, Frank Alustiza and Bobby Gray son, Tiny has a wealth of mate rial. At present Jack Hillman gets the starting call due to his two years of experience, but don’t be surprised to see either Alustiza or Grayson get the call soon. Bill Reinhart, chief scout for the Ore gon Webfeet, v/ho watched the Stanford-Bruin battle informs me that he believes that Alustiza was the outstanding fullback on the field. Frank, is a 195-pound Span ish Basque youth from Stockton, whose ball carrying ability reminds one of the great Nevers himself. His quick kicking and passing ability made him the sensation of last year’s frosh squad. Bobby Grayson, much publicized Portland youth, has lot to do to live up to pre-season expectations. In spring practice likeable Bobby looked great, but as yet has to show the fans this fall. Summing things up Messrs. Thornhill, Nevers and staff have a real nucleus around which to build a great team. Their back field ma terial would make even the great Howard Jones envious, and their forward wall material would be welcomed by any coach. Thorn hill will probably not clean El Tro jan this year, due to this being his first year as hea’man and his out standing material being but un tried sophomores, but the warning echoes out “Watch the Redskins go in '34—and watch Alustiza.” Provisions Ma de To Carry Minor Sports Program Spiking rumors that the minor sports would have to be discon tinued on account of insufficient funds, Hugh Rosson, graduate manager, stated that this depart ment was provided for, as men tioned in a previous issue of the ! Emerald. Provisions for the minor sports included $200 for six teams, allowing funds for necessary equip ment and a limited intercollegiate schedule. Some fear had been expressed among the members of the various minor teams that intercollegiate competition would be discontinued for this year. Rosson stated that regular team practice in swimming would not start for a while, as the coaches for the various squads have not yel been appointed. However, he plans to have this particular de tail taken ,eare of as soon as pos-, sible. * . i Cliffdtcellers These two Columbia gridstcrs will be on hand tomorrow afternoon when the Irish eleven meets Prink Callison’s Webfooters on Hayward field.

Service Phone 825 Quality Workmanship Oregon leam Holds Secret Grid Sessions Columbia Squad to Play Oregon Saturday Frosh Gridders Oppose Varsity With Washington System Of Football Prince Gary Callison, Oregon football coach, must be convinced that silence is golden, as last night the Webfoots drilled on Hay ward field behind locked gates. Before starting their secret drill Colonel Bill Hayward, trainer, put the squad through their condition ing set-up, which is prescribed by him each evening. After getting the gridstors warmed up, everyone was ushered out of the football oval and what went on behind the barred doors is another story. Frosh Get Workout The Oregon frosh marched into the stadium and scrimmaged the varsity. Irv Schultz, who handled the frosh in this scuffle, had the Ducklings well drilled in the Uni versity of Washington style of play. Gene Murphy, Columbia univer sity coach, will bring his “Fight ing Irishmen” down from Portland today. After taking a light work out on Hayward field this after noon, they should be in first-class condition for their encounter with Oregon Saturday. Lineup Given Oregon's probable starting line up will be: Bud Jones, transfer from Ashland Normal, and Bud Pozzo at the wing posts, Alex Eagle and Irwin Nillson at tackles, Bree Cuppoletti and Dutch Clark at the guard posts. The backfield will be composed of Ralph Terjeson at quarter, Leigh ton Gee and Stew Milligan, halves, and “Iron” Mike Mikulak at full.
