Paffe 4 VOLUME XXXV UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1933 Our Side of It By MALCOLM BAUER Rooks, Frosh Go at It Tonight; Web foots in Gooil Shape at Train "C'UGENE and Oregon sport fans (that is, all of those Oregon ■fartc who rnnlHn’t sprane toerether Slats Gill the nec essary amount of simo leons, or are flat on their backs, so that they can’t follow the Web foots north today and see them slap down Jimmy Phe lan’s Huskies) will get a treat tonight when Oregon's f r o s h <iuu uicgvni i, uunu "* ^ • •* the opening clash of the “little civil war." The game is to be at Hayward field, right here on our own campus. Billy Reinhart and Slats Gill have met many times on the ma ple court, but tonight will mark the first time the two hoop strate gists have matched wits on the gridiron. Both mentors have a wealth of material this fall ... in fact, more than they knew what to do with, and the two elevens that will meet each other tonight will be the pick of two squads which have been pared down from around the eighty mark. Last year the two yearling elev ens of the class of 1936 battled twice- to a scoreless tie, but this time something warns us that neither Duckling nor Orange Babe is going to be satisfied with an even break tonight, and some one is going to be disappointed. There's always a lot of spirit and fight in the yearling squads. It seems that by the time a player lias worked his way into the var sity ranks he has lost all that fire and primitive love of battle that characterizes the play of the first year teams ... in a word he is sophisticated . . . Not so with the freshman. He is out to win, and at any cost. There is nothing more pleasing to a fronh team than the opportunity of handing a rook a sound drubbing . . . and the same can bo said of the orange year lings. So look for lots of action to night . . . maybe a fight or two . . . and lots of blood and thunder. Go get 'em, frosh! i|t :l: if* / Oregon's crippled varsity didn’t look so bad at the train yesterday afternoon. In fact, in their Sunday’s best, they looked more like a winning team than ever. A few limps here and there, perhaps, but watch ’em tear into those Huskies. Any Duck player on the field could lose a leg at the knee, and he wouldn’t be aware of the casualty for at least a quarter, or when he stooped to tie his shoestring. If Eugene football fans only had the kind of a home schedule that rooters will enjoy at Berkeley. California, this year, little would be said about the “traveling Web foots.” The home-towners at the site of the University of Califor nia each week see some team rep resenting the Golden Bears in ac tion. The varsity has seven out of its ten games on the home lot and the few times that the regu lars are not on hand, the frost eleven will put on the show foi Bear fans. Here is the home game schedule that all football fans dream about Sept. 23 Santa Clara vs. Cal ifornia; Cal. Frosh vs. Los Ange les J. C. Sept. 30 Cal.

NITE BERNIE FAUNCES COLLEGIATE CLUB BAND — at — Midway ADMISSION 50c A Good Time Assured -. 29 Ducks on Way to Meet Washington Huskies Plan to Break Oregon Jinx Purple and Gold Will Be Decided Favorite in Annual Grid Encounter With the cheers of 1000 Oregon rooters to send them on their way, Prink Callison and his Webfwot football squad, 29 strong, boa rded the Southern Pa cific's Shasta Limited last night at 5:30, and were on their way to Seattle. The Ducks, mi nus the services of their ace of tackles, Biff Nils son, meet the Uniyers ity of Mark Temple vv ivm nuaivica in liic ouujlivi City tomorrow afternoon. Betting odds decidedly favor the Huskies to throw off the yoke of Webfoot dominance which has held them scoreless for the past five years. Two facts stand out as the reasons for the swing of the experts toward the Huskies— the first, Oregon looked unsea soned and ragged against Colum bia university, a much weaker eleven, last Saturday — secondly, the fiend “Injury,” always active in the Webfoot ranks before the annual game with the Purple, worked overtime this year, leaving many of the Webfoot stars far from their best for Saturday's tilt. All of the Webfoot hard luck tales, except that about Biff's knee, have partially cleared now, and every man that stepped on tiie train yesterday was in condi tion to put in some hard football at Seattle. Mark Temple, co-cap tain of the Webfoots, is nearly recovered from the injured leg muscle which kept him on crutches for a week ..after the Gonzaga game. Cuppoletti, Morse, Gagnon, Van Vliet, Milligan, and Gee, all of whom have been on the invalid list during the past week, were in good shape, and should play plenty of football against the Huskies. Mason McCoy, reserve end who made the trip, was not included in the list published yesterday in the Emerald. The rest of the squad remains the same. Diving, form swimming, and racing were featured at tiie Am phibian exhibition held yesterday ifternoon at 4:30 o'clock in the women’s swimming pool. Those participating were: Joyce Busenhark, Thelma Spooner, Mar garet Reynolds, Marje Thayer, Helen Wright, Ellen Endicott and Eileen Moore. Eileen Untermnnn, president of the swimming honorary, presided. Tryouts for the Amphibian club will be held next Thursday night it 7:30. vs. California (double header; al io Cal.

Smarting from a close defeat administered to them by i the California Bears, the Gallop ing Gaels of St. Mary’s today went j into intensive practice sessions to j prepare for their tussle with the Trojans at Los Angeles next Sat urday before a large crowd of Southern California fans. The last team to defeat the pres ent national champions, the Gaels j come south out of the sweltering foothills of Moraga valley with a host of men who are said to match Jones’ cohorts man for man in practically every position. Rated as underdogs in the coming con test, they bring their full strength against the Trojans, with the ex ception of Ed Gilbert, 223-lb., guard, and John Yezerski, mam moth tackle, both of whom were badly shattered in the Bear-Gael melee. Ten of the Gael squad saw ac tion in the last defeat adminis tered to the Trojans in 1931—the southerners winning 24 contests in a row since then. Vets of St. Mary’s last victory are: Yates, center; Shaefer and Gilbert, guards; Jorgensen, tackle; Fred and George Canrinus, ends; Ahern, quarter, and Partee and Dodson, fullbacks. This gives Madigan vir tually the same assortment of players that beat the Trojans in 1931, but he comes south this year with added backfield material in Fiese, Wilson andd Nichelini. A Sad Story That7?; what Bill Reinhart, above, has been telling about freshman football hopes this fall. However, he has promised to round up 11 frosh gridsters if Slats Gill, Rook coach, can find an equal number of Oregon State yearlings for the •‘little civil war” tonight at Hay ward field.

Event Sigma Phi Epsilon and Phi Gamma Delta Advance in Donut Tournament Monday’s Swimming Seheduie ■1:00—Beta Theta Pi vs. Sigrna Phi Epsilon. 4:30—Phi Gamma Delta vs. Kappa Sigma. Coming from behind to win the last two events, Kappa Sigma scored an impressive 22-17 victory over Phi Kappa Psi yesterday af ternoon. In the other two matches of the day, Phi Gamma Delta downed Sigma Alpha Epsilon and Sigma Phi Epsilon won from Alpha Tau Omega by default. The Kappa Sig-Phi Psi affair was by far the most thrilling match of the tournament. Both teams fought a nip and tuck bat tle w'ith each individual race be j ing won by only a small margin, j Newport of the K^ppa Sigs led his team, by shattering the intramu ral record for the 40-yard free style event. He covered this dis tance in 19.5 seconds to clip a half second off the previous record. Idaho’s Vandals Have Game W ith College of Idaho The College of Idaho football team will play host „to Coach Leo Calland’s Idaho Vandals tonight at Caldwell. The Idaho squad, led by Willis Smith, their half-pint halfback, showed a strong offen sive last week in smothering the Whitman team under a 60-to-0 score. Since the Vandals invade Eugene next P'riday night for a game with the Webfeet, tonight’s clash will be watched with much interest here. Ringrose and Brooke Oni some fine swimming for the losers. Due to the football game in Seattle Saturday, no matches will be held this week-end. The semi finals are scheduled for Monday. OREGON FROSH MEET ROOKS IN TILT TONIGHT (Continued from Pac/c One) will undoubtedly face each other. It is also reported that Wayne Valley, rook passing ace, and Bill Griswold have been declaredd ineli gible. Another questionable point is whether or not Ray Woodman will play. He has been kept on ice for the game, having an early sea son injury, but the dope says he will not be in condition. Hub Tuttle, end, is the outstand ing linesman of the O.S.C. year lings. Don Fisher and Ken Deal ing, tackles, are also reported to be good. Pete Delano, center, is j another reported cripple, and Dem ! ing may play the pivot position. Passing Offense Stressed By Washington Grid Coach SEATTLE, Oct. 12.— (Special) Every night of practice this week genial Jimmy Phelan has' had his men practicing the art of developing a perfect pass offense for the Oregon game Saturday. Tuesday night the Husky mentor had his boys shooting passes so long it was necessary to burn the Kleig lights for almost two hours. During the practice session three out of every four plays were passes with Art Ahonen and Ole Hansen alternating on the tossing end. When one did the tossing the other was usually the receiver, so the fans can expect to see plenty of passes from Ahonen to Hansen or vice versa Saturday. When Phelan had called a halt to the day's work he seemed to be well pleased with the work of his squad, especially that of his two above mentioned halfbacks who completed three out of every four passes attempted. Many Passes Used Phelan is using a variety of passes, short ones, long ones, passes into the flats and short ones on the flanks—even the new lateral now and then—all were tried with the same high degree j of success. The Washington coach realizes the weakness of the Web foot pass defense and means to do all in his power to take advan tage of the situation. Eill Smith, stellar end, is figured to play a great part in the Husky pass offense although he did not take part in the scrimmage ses sion due to an injured thumb. Last night “‘Pest” Welch, frosh grid tutor, directed his yearlings against the varsity using Oregon offensive plays throughout with the varsity on defense. The var sity squad stopped the freshmen on most every play, showing their knowledge of the Callison system. Smalling May Play It looks as if Ralph Smalling, reserve fullback, will replace the injured Sulkosky at the line jar ring post. Matt Muczynski continued to play his post at quarterback in the first team backfield. Muczyn ski looked so well in there that it is expected he will keep on at his new position of signal barker and that Jay Hornbeak, disposed quarterback, v/ill hold down the bench. Chuck Mucha is back at the left guard slot and Tom Boyle is working first string center, oust ing Hurley De Roin from the starting job. Ted Markov stepped Into the pass receiving business like a veteran and strengthened his chances of starting at right end against Oregon.
