BEAT the BEAVERS They’ll Star in the Battle of the Century5 Today Our Side of It... By MALCOLM BAUER Conference Standings Due for Change After Day of Four Kig Tills IT’S another big day for coast conference fans . . . nearly as j great as a fortnight ago v/hen all | ten members of the Far West cir- J c.uit took their bows before the j rooting sections up and down the j coast. Today will see eight j elevens, including the three whoj are still in the race. Southern Cal ifornia, Oregon State, and our own Webfoots, clash in a quartet of games that promise to turn the old standings end over end. Here’s the way things look this morning: Oregon . O. S. C. U. S. C. Washington Stanford . w. s. c. Idaho . California . U. C. L. A. Montana ..... W. . 3 2 . 2 . 1 . I . 1 0 0 0 L. 0 0 0 1 1 2 2 1 2 3 T. 0 1 1 0 0 1 0 2 1 0 But four bombshells are clue to explode this afternoon, and when the debris has settled, there is bound to be a different set-up than that pictured above. Let’s see what could happen. Starting with the Oregon-Ore gon State epic in Portland, we will ponder only long enough to say that the Oregon spirit even gets the best of Cryssy Ball, and the old slicker is compelled to give the Webfootera the edge. A real battle! At Moscow, Washington State should have little trouble in quell ing the weakened Idaho squad in a battle that will have little to do with the outcome of the coast race. Moving southward, we will pause at Berkeley where the down-trodden Golden Bear plays host to Jimmy Phelan’s Washing ton Huskies. California may be lucky enough to get her third tie of the season in this game, but we doubt it. A Washington victory, by a touchdown. Down in Los Angeles, Howard Jones and his Trojans may get another close call, but the national chomps should stop the crippled Stanford Indians. Chalk up the Thundering Herd to keep its rec ord clear of defeats. If all the.se pleasant things should actually come to pass, here is what the fan will see in tomor row morning’s papers: W. L. T. Oregon 4 0 0 U. S. C. . » <> 1 Washington . 3 I O. S. C.3 1- 1 W. S. C. 3 2 1 Stanford . 12 0 Idaho . i 3 0 California . 0 2 3 IT. C. L. A. 0 2 I Montana . 0 3 0 Ain’t that nize? Business Finn Seeks Advice on Psychology Proof that psychology is coming mhre and more to the front with the trend of modern times is shown by the fact that a Portland manu facturer has written the psycholo gy department in regard to an ex periment which would show the reaction of the public to each of a list of proposed names for a man’s swimming suit. Dr. Taylor, who received the t;e quest, doubts whether college men and women are a sufficiently rep resentative group of . subjects to make such a study worth while, and is suggesting another way of studying the problem. Women Meet Monday There will be a meeting of Inde pendent Women Monday evening at 7:30 in the women’s lounge of Gerllngar hall, it was announced yesterday. Frosh Rifle Team Begins Fraetiee After completing five hours of preliminary instruction, the fresh men marksmanship classes have begun actual practice for this year under the tutelage of Sergeant Harvey Blythe. William Frye and Leonard Bjork turned in the highest scores for the opening day. Other freshmen who have shown unusual accuracy are Sam McGiughey and Cyrus Cook. Owing to the limited amount of space on the range at the bar racks, only 10 men are allowed to shoot during each hour. Students are being drilled in careful handling of the Titles and utmost safety precautions are be ing watched in order to prevent accident. Former Eugene Boy Returns as Master Magician An eight-year-old boy put on a magic show and charged his small playmates a penny apiece admis sion. At nine he made his first I public appearance. While still in Eugene high school he began his professional career. With two terms still to go for his B.A. de gree from the University of Ore gon, a juicy vaudeville contract was offered and accepted. Five years later he was an intimate friend and pupil of the famous Houdini and was elected by the International Brotherhood of Ma gicians to "fill his shoes.” The climax of this success story was seen last night at the Eugene armory when Virgil, master ma gician and illusionist, presented his new show. Virgil’s company consists of six others besides himself. The show troupe will stay in Eugene until Sunday afternoon, when it will leave for Grants Pass. "Patronize Elmerald advertisers." Webfoots9 Giants Here are the "bis boys'* of the Dir-k grit machine who will lea\e the Beavers with their share of the bruises after today's game. On the left is "Iron Mike” Miklllak, Oregon’s all American candidate at fullback. At the right is Charles K. Bishop, 285 pounds of Lenton lellow tackle. These gridders will be in the tliick of the fight today at the Mult nomah Civic stadium when the undefeated elevens of the University of Oregon and Oregon State college meet in what has been termed the greatest battle in the 40-year history of this age-old gridiron rivalry. Above, at the left, is Hal Pangle, versatile Beaver quarter back, next to him is Maynard Schulz, a reserve end on Stlner’s squad, who will probably see action along with his “iron” teammates today On the right are Bill Tomscheck, Beaver guard who may bo held out of the game on account of a week-old injury, and Pierre Bowman, the Corvallis team’s great blocking half. In the center at the top are Leighton Gee (with the ball), Oregon’s underrated cut back specialist, and Bree Cuppoletti, the chunky Duck guard who helps Iron Mike Mikulak in backing up the Webfoot line. In the center, ready to break up a Beaver play, is “Sphinx” Wishard, Oregon end, who alternates with Bud Pozzo in the Lemon-Yellow starting lineup. At the bottom are Ned Simpson, reserve Webfoot end, and Dwight Nielson, giant sophomore tackle reserve, both of whom may get the call during the course of the game. Oregon Graduate Attends Harvard Ronald Robnett, '27, graduate in business administration, former as sistant manager and Phi Beta Kap pa, is enrolled in the Harvard graduate school of business admin istration at Cambridge, Mass. lie has been recently elected a member of the Harvard review board, the student editorial board, which publishes the Harvard Re view. Also he ranks in first posi tion in the special session class, according to a letter received by John M. Rae, associate professor of business administration. The special session of the grad uate school is held from February 1 to the middle of August each year to provide a full year's work in the two-year course for stu dents graduating in the fall term. The course is held for the bene fit of business men with practical experience, and also for students just graduated from college. Ilodge Flies South For Science Talk Dr. Edwin T. Hodge, who was moved from this campus to Cor vallis when upper division geology work was placed there, spoke be fore the California Academy of Sciences November 8. This academy, which gives four special lectures each year on the “Beauties of Nature," had asked Professor Hodge for three lectures, one each year. Last year he was unable to speak, but this fall he arranged to give an illustrated talk on the "History of the Colum bia River," which is. he said, "as interesting and as fascinating- as the scenery of the marvelous re gion." In order to give this lecture, it was necessary for Hodge to fly down to California on the day of the lecture. He flew back yester day for the game, and will leave Sunday night for Corvallis.

Week’s Emerald Contest Closes Henriette Horak carried off the prize for the best Emerald feature story written the first four days this week. The winning story was “Mae West Modes Featured in Dashing Display of Styles.” Hon orable mention for originality was awarded Janis Worley for her fea ture on “Women Lose Sophistica tion in Rush for football Tickets.” “Patronize Emerald advertisers.” i Coast Conference Leaders Play Crucial Games Today Coast conference football again nears a climax as the three unde feated leaders swing into action in gridiron warfare today. It appears to be another battle of the cen tury as the long awaited clash be tween the state of Oregon’s two unbeaten elevens to be played at Multnomah stadium in Portland is but a few hours away. Both teams are in the pink of condition and optimistic as to the outcome. The Beavers appear to be pre-game favorites in betting circles in the Rose City, i'rgely as a result of their remarkable stand against the Trojans of Southern California several wee^s ago. Southern California journeys north to invade the camp of Stan ford where it hopes to continue its undefeated record. Tiny Thornhill, Card coach, believes his boys can knock ‘ever the mighty men of Troy and it should be a battle. The USC team is favored to win the game. Cougars vs. Vandals Coach Babe Hollingbery’s Cou gars travel to Moscow for their traditional battle with the Vandals. Year after year these two teams fight it out in probably the great est grudge battle played in the Northwest and the final score is usually close. VV.S.C. should win this game but Idaho has risen to great heights in this game in pre vious years and there might be a surprise. i Montana journeys to Spokane to meet Gonzaga. The Bulldogs are favored to win. U. C. L. A. plays the West Coast Marines and should win with ease. Jimmy Phelan takes his pack of Huskies south to meet California at Berkeley. Anything can happen in this game and the consensus of opinion is that California playing at home has the edge. Washington is very apt to upset the somewhat scanty advantage that the Bears claim and bring home the bacon. In the Rocky Mountain confer ence, Colorado Aggies vs. Utah State, at Fort Collins; Colorado college vs. Brigham Young at Col orado Springs; Colorado State Teachers vs. Colorado Mines at Golden; University of Utah vs. University of Colorado, at Boul der. The Colorado Aggies, Colora do college, Colorado Mines, and University cf Utah should win these games.
