    By CLAIR JOHNSON
Emerald Sports Editor
It was about 17 days ago while
watching the Ducks and Bulldogs
mill around on Hayward field that
we gazed upon the countenance of
Jimmy Phelan, head football coach
at the University of Washington,
Slowly we noticed a slow and plea
sant smile of satisfaction creep
ing over his face. The occasion for
the event was the way the Web
l'oots were wallowing around
against Gonzaga, although de
feating them 13 to 0. "Smiling
Jimmy” Phelan, as he used to be
known back east before he got en
tangled in the six year losing
streak of the Huskies, seemed to
be returning again to his natural
self.
But now it’s all off and again
the Husky head man is moaning
around with bear stories, sad
stories, and all sorts of terrible
predictions about how bad his
eleven is going to get trimmed.
However, instead of picking his
stories to pieces, we are inclined
to be a hit sympathetic this time,
l'or once Jimmy really has some
thing to spout about. The former
Purdue mentor is on the spot at
(Seattle and has been ever since he
moved to the coast.
This year the howling is grow
ing and fans are demanding a
Webfoot scalp or Phelan’s if the
Huskies don’s lick the Ducks.
Phelan came out here on a pin
nacle—he had coached champion
ship teams in the east and he was
good- so the fans expected him
to continue turning out big time
elevens.
But since his arrival here Jimmy
has had neither the material nor
the support that he received back
at Purdue.
* * *
So after all it’s only right lo
do a little weeping with the Husky
coach and hope that even though
he doesn’t trim Oregon that he
may do something else to apease
the wrath of the Seattle stool
coaches.

But "Smiling
Jimmy” could

was any sort of
a psychologist.
Afiyhow that is
what a gentle
man of the press
up north claims.
This doper of
sports activity
nemed Dirks in
sists that Wash
mgton will trim Oregon this year
and as proof of his statements
says that the worm must always
turn and this is the year it is go
ing to .
Mr. Dirks raves on somewhat in
the following manner: "Every year
since 1930 in the game played be
fore the Webfoot contest the
Huskies have soundly trounced
their opponents. And every year
since 1930 in (tie game played be
fore the Husky contest the Web
fools have barely edged out a vic
toiy over tHeir- opponents.”
So far so good and then Mr.
Dirks continues and cites this
year’s games in which just the re
Ducks Ready
With Injured
Men In Shape
Roy Gagnon Turns Ankle,
Has to Leave Practice;
Injury Not Serious
( With practically every man on
both squads seeing action, the var
sity and frosh football squads met
in a long scrimmage on Hayward
field last night. The Frosh were
unable to pierce the heavy varsity
line, hut made some nice gains
through the air.
The Varsity plowed its way
through on straight running plays.
Frank Michek, Bud Jones, and
Hugh McCredie were the only var
sity players who did not take part
in the practice, due to injuries.
Michek and McCredie will be in
shape by Saturday, hut it is
thought Jones will be unable to
compete, due to an infected knee.
Gagnor, varsity guard turned
an ankle, and was forced to leave
the scrimmage, but his injury is
not serious enough to keep him
out of the Husky game.
Frye Is Back
Gardner Frye, who has been out
of heavy practice for the last three
weeks due to a sprained back took
part in the scrimmage, as did
Vince Walker, out of practice the
last fe wdays with a ieg injury,
last few days with a leg injury,
varsity were Van Vliet and Parke.
The hard charging varsity line
broke through on several occa
sions to throw the yearling ball
carriers for losses, but the back
field looked slightly weak on pass
defense as the frosh completed
several tosses.
Both sides used many substitutes
thus giving both coaches an op
portunity to see every man on his
squad in action. The Frosh used a
combination of Washington and
Oregon plays, thus giving the var
sity a rough idea of what they may
expect from the Huskies Saturday.
Few Changes Made
Unless more injuries occur, it
apears that the same team which
opened the U.C.L.A. game two
weeks ago with the exception of
Jones, will be ready to start in
Saturday’s game. This lineup con
sists of Morse and Walker at the
ends; Eagle and Bjork at the
tackles; Gagnor and Hurney at
the guard positions; Con Fury at
center; Terjeson at quarter; Parke
and Reichsman at the halves; and
Michek at full.
Frye may replace Bjork at
tackle, and the Astoria boy who
made such a good showing in the
Bruin contest may be shifted back
to his old place at guard.
Regardless of starting lineup,
the Ducks should be in better con
dition and with a stronger reserve
strength than they were for the
Uclas. In addition, they will be out
to tack another head ache on the
six year/ jinz Oregon now holds
over Washington.
verse has happened namely, the
Phelan eleven barely nosed out a
victory over Idaho while the Ducks
walked all over the Uclans.
“Therefore,” the would be psy
chologist continues, "1934 is the
year for the worm to turn, and the
Seattle men will beat Callison’s
eleven."
* * *
So with all that bit of optimism
it ought to be quite easy for Coach
Phelan to once more assume his
famous smile of yester-years. Now,
not to discourage him in the least,
but just to clarify matters a little
vve might site a few reasons why
this psychologist is definitely on
the wrong track.
First, and perhaps foremost, is,
as we mentioned before, the mater
ial available. Although Phelan has
veterans back they do not measure
up to the standard of the Oregon
squad, small as it is.
Second, going back to psychol
ogy, we might add that anyone in
the habit of doing one thing will
continue to do the same thing un

I Jittery Huskies
i Test New Setups
For Big Row Sat.
j Coach Jimmy Phelan of the Uni
| versity of Washington Huskies is
! badly worried, according to eur
j rent reports.
Early this season there were 50
“brawny” men out for varsity foot
ball and everything looked rosy.
The Huskies didn’t know whether
! they could handle the rest of the
I conference or not, but Oregon was
n't set up as a serious threat. What
[ happened when U.C.L.A. and Ore
gon tangled has passed into the
realms of history. Washington be
gan to think then, and now, they've
frankly got the jitters.
I Phelan is making shifts of va
| rious sorts, trying to get a com
| bination which will take the Web
: feet down the line. Apparently the
I set-up isn’t to be found. Captain
Woody Ullin is being seriously con
I sidered for the tackle position to
help check Oregon’s dark horse
i team.
i Other drastic changes are being
1 made, so when the game opens
| Saturday, almost any weird com
bination may be expected from the
i Huskies in order to conquer the
gang which upset U. C. L. A. and
caused several well-known sports
writers to haul cocky feet from
desk tops and seek seclusion.
less there is a mighty big obstruc
tion in the way—and we don’s be
lieve the Huskies are a big enough
obstruction to stop the Ducks from
adding to their six-year vcitory
string.
Third, the material taken in
dividaully and not collectively.
Phelan may have stars but not
men quite up to the standard of
such lads as “Fills Mike’s Shoes”
Frink Callison

Parke, “Mosqui

and other sturdy

rave on all night,
Michek, co-cap

oui in closing we musi mention
one more factor and that is Prink
Callison, Webfoot coach, and his
lineup of plays, headed by his na
tion famous cruncher. Prink knows
his team and he knows the Wash
ington eleven and he is set and
his team is set so here’s hoping.
Y.W.C.A. Begins Frosh
Discussion Meetings
The Y.W.C.A. freshman discus
sion groups began meeting Mon
day. Freshman girls may still sign
up for one of the groups. Topics
of discussion are unlimited and
each group selects these for itself.
Miss Betty Hughes, executive sec
retary of the Y.W.C.A. or Rosa
lind Gray, president, will be at the
“Y" bungalow to answer any ques
tions about the groups or office
hours.
Freshman girls are urged to
come in and sign up for either or
both. There are freshman discus
sion groups at 4 o’clock every af
ternoon except Friday, while
groups meet at 3 o’clock on Mon
day and Thursday. Leaders of the
groups are Marjorie Scobert, Glen
dolene Vinyard, Helen Wright, Jane
Bishop, Elizabeth Bendstrup, and
Alice Ann Thomas.
Oregon Leads OSC in
Student Cards Issued
—
Oregon State college has fallen !
behind the University of Oregon in
the percentage of associated stu
dent body cards sold, according to
records available yesterday after
noon.
Of the 2461 students who have
enrolled here this year, 1813 have
purchased cards, while only 1738 1
students at Oregon State are now
members out of their enrollment i
of 2508.
While this comparative showing
is much better than that of last
year, the committee in charge, as
well as student body officers, are
anxious to bring the total even
higher.

Veteran Pitcher Benched
By 1 i Year Old’s Orders
Peoli, Ohio, Oct. 9—(AP) Cy
Young's waistline and the bunts of
a kid baseball team have caught
up with him at last.
One of the greatest pitchers of
all time—with a perfect game to
his credit in which no player
reached first -Cy has been given
his last release.
The Peoli all-stars they call
them, a gang of kids 12 to 15 years
old, and it was a kid with a face
full of freckles who sent the great
Cy Young to the showers for the
last time.
The all-stars, organized this
year, needed a pitcher and sought
the services of the veteran major
leaguer. Cy dug out his old mitt
and spiked shoes, loosened up the
arm that had won many a thrill
ing big loop game, and took the
mound for “Dear Old Peoli.’’
Then one afternoon Cy’s expan
sive waistline betrayed him.
“The kids were quick to notice
my helplessness on bunts,” Young
said. I’m telling you no pitcher
ever had so many bunts poked at
him as those youngsters rolled at
me.
“The freckle-faced 14-year-old
manager of our team waved,
‘enough,’ and to the showers I
went. In all my baseball experi
ence, I never had one tht made me
feel quite as washed-up as that
did.”
Bureau Finishes
Several Projects
During Summer
Study of Oregon Counties
To Determine Relief
Needs Made
Three major projects have been
completed by the Bureau of Mu
nicipal Research during the sum
mer months under the supervision
of Herman Kehrli, director.
(1) The largest of these is a sur
vey of the counties of Oregon
wherein information has been as
sembled which will determine the
ability of the various counties to
finance their own relief needs. (2)
The bureau, in cooperation with
the League of Oregon Cities, has
prepared a charter for Huntington.
(3) A survey of the police depart
ment of Portland has been made
with increased efficiency as the
ultimate objective.
The study of the Oregon counties
was conducted with the aid of
funds supplied by the CWA and
the SERA, and was undertaken
at the request of executives of the
State Relief committee, and at the
suggestion of the consultant in
charge of organizing the survey of
welfare activities in Oregon. It is
a comparative study of selected
physical, financial, and relief char
acteristics of each county made in
an effort to decide upon the
amount of aid required by the dif
ferent counties for their relief
needs.
The new charter drafted for
Huntington, it is hoped by its
makers, will be the future model
■barter for small cities. The most
nitstanding new principle in the
irafting was the clause which
fives the city all the powers which
s possible for it to have under the
■onstitution and the state and
■ounty statutes.
The preliminary draft of the
■barter was prepared by Eugene
Slattery, graduate of the U. of
I. in '2tl. in consultation with Dr.
lames P. Barnett, head of the po
itieal science department, and Mr
lerman Kehrli, drector of the !
Municipal Research bureau. Mr.
Slattery has been appointed to the
daff of the bureau as research as-1
istant in municipal law.
The survey of the Portland po
ice department was made with
lerman Kehrli as executive sec re
ary and August Vollmer as con- j,
adtant. William J. Bruce, gradu- j
ite assistant in social science here
itul Myrl Lindley, ‘33 business ad
ninistration major, both worked
>n the survey.
Mayor Carson appointed a coni
nittee with Creed C. Hammond as
•hairman to make a survey that it
night be determined how the effi
ciency of the department might he
increased.
The outstanding recommenda
tions made as a result of the survey
are: much more rigid standards in
the training and selection of men,
reorganization of the patrol work
by eliminating the special func
tions and increasing the number
of radio car control districts, and
establishment of a pension system
which will be financially sound.
Rally Plans

the Bulldogs will depend principal
ly upon the work of Ike Peterson,
the slippery Swede, to pull out a
victory. Undaunted by the fact
that the Cougars wrere capable of
stopping Southern California's Cot

ers believe the 180 pound Swede
is good enough to penetrate Wash

Sociologists Discuss
Public Welfare Plans
Phillip A. Parsons, professor, of

for public welfare in Oregon, as
well as the other three states in
the northwest area—Washington,
Idaho, and Montana.
As chairman of the welfare divi
sion of this commission, which is
under the National Resource board,
Dr. Parsons has called together
this group of people to work out a
welfare plan for the four states to
submit to the commission at the
regional conference to be held in
