Former Oregon Grid
Player Sends IS ole;
Ignesso Gels Laugh
Back in the days of ’29 it seems
that Oregon had a football team.
This was when Cap McEwan was
still holding forth as football di
rector here. Now on Cap's eleven
of that year there was, we recall,
a guard v/ho was named Homer
Dixon.
This Mr. Dixon wa3 a big husky
guard, and he was a good guard.
But he, not being a mighty Rosen
burg, Schwammel, or such, in the
line, has since no doubt been for
gotten. But right now we are go
ing to bring him back to you for a
few minutes.
* * *
It seems that Dixon after fin
ishing school here did not drift on
much in the sports field but in
stead directed his efforts towards
still more education. Last year he
was granted his masters degree
here and at present he is principal
of Madras union high school at
Madras, Oregon.
The reason for all the sudden in
terest ih the gentleman is a pleas
ant little note that breezed into the
sports room yesterday, written by
Mr. Dixon, which has a bit to say
about guessing games. The article
caused more than an uncommon
amount of laughter in the sports
room, with most of the laughter
being directed at no less than
Iguesso, honorable sports dopester.
Mr. Dixon's note also includes
a sentence of illuminating infor
mation about the success of the
football teams of that era. The
clipping he mentions is one which
lists the predictions made of last
Saturday’s games by Iguesso. The
letter reads as follows:
“The clipping enclosed is self
explanatory, 1 presume. lias I)r.
DcISusk quit giving his elinie class
es for wrong guesses.
Anyhow, I get a lot of enjoy
ment out of reading the Emerald.
In the good old days, when I played
football you didn’t have to guess
the outcome—we lost. Glad things
have taken an upswing.
“Sineerely,
“HOMEK .1. DIXON.”

A crushing blow was given the

Dr. Sante Caniparoli, team physi

Over Montana in
Coming Grid Tilt
The U.C.R.A. Bruins will try to
make a comeback in the Pacific
coast conference .Saturday when
they meet Montana. Both teams
have suffered defeats earlier in the
season, U.C.L.A. losing- a one sided
game to the University of Oregon,
and Mnotana losing to both Wash

There is not much known as to
the comparative strength of the
two teams but the odds seem to
favor the Bruins although the boys
from up north are trying hard to
keep out of the cellar this year
and are all set to give the Bruins
a plenty tough afternoon.

Betas Trot Out
Star; Hoyrnan
Predicts Fame
Sigma Nu, Chi Psis, Beat
Yeomen, Sig Hall
Races Fast ami Exciting;
Spectators Wild as
Contestants Yie
By FULTON H. TRAVIS
New stars ocasionally appear in
the firmament; it is a proud scient
ist who has the pleasure of dis
covering- them. So it is with sports
and Mike Hoyrnan, swimming
coach, who cf&fcked the intramural
contest yesterday afteroon.
James A. Hurd, a junior, trans
fer ffrom Honolulu, representing
the Betas in the 40 yeard free-style
race, romped home so repidly it
looked as though his opponent was
a poor swimmer; even his own
teammate, no mean memrman, was
left well in the background.
Hoyrnan Excited
Unusual excitement was notice
able on the part of Mike Hoyrnan,
judge, as he checked his stop
watch, then rechecked it. The time
for this dash was eighteen and
seven-tenths seconds! According
to Hoyrnan, this is half a second
faster than the Pacific varsity re
cord for the race, when held in a
sixty foot tank.
“I predict that Hurd can be the
outstanding sprint man of the Pac
ific northwest in a short time,"
Mike said after excitement over
Hurd’s speed had cooled somewhat.
Aside from that, the Betas’
point showing was good but not
exceptional. They scored 32 counts
in their meet, held at 4:40 p. m.,
Delta Tau Delta getting 10.
Other Scores Listed
Sigma Nil took the Yeomen for
a ride, 44-3; Sigma hall took it
on the chin to Chi Psi, 33-13.
Fastest time for the forty yard
free-style went to the Betas, 18.7
seconds; the forty yard back
stroke was taken by Sigma Nil and
Beta together, each scoring 28.8
seconds, Coskelo for Sigma Nu,
Morris for Beta; forty year breast
stroke, Gill for Beta, 33.5 seconds;
120 yard medley, Clampitt, Rix,
Stockton for Delta Tau Delta,
1:29.0; sixty year individual, Hurd
again for Beta, 37.3 seconds; 120
year free-style, Morris Cathey,
Hurd for Beta, 1:11.0.
Although Beta showed more star
performers and faster work in
some events, Sigma Nu had the
highest individual team score for
the afternoon—44—due as some
suggested, that they were the only
group matched against a relative
ly unorganized assembly of com
petitors -the Yeomen.
liaces Good
Every race was good and each
man put his best into the work at
all parts of the contests; there
were no quitters and barring the
way Wally Hug used his starting
"gat,” no comedy. Two or three
times, would - be contestants
plunged into the pool ahead of
time.
This afternoon at 4 p. m., 4:40.
and 5:20 respectively, Gamma hall
will meet Theta Chi: Sigma Alpha
Epsilon and Phi Gamma will clash;
and Sigma Phi Epsilon will fight it
out with the Kappa Psi's.

Orange Football Squad
Loses All-American Half
CORVALLIS, Ore., Oct. 10 —
Norman “Red” Franklin, all-Amer
ican halfback from Oregon State
college and the main cog in the
Beaver football machine for the
past two seasons will be unable to
participate in any football contest
for at least the next three weeks,
it was announced Tuesday by
Grant Swan, team physician.
Franklin sustained a shoulder in
jury in the contest with the Stan
ford Cardinals last Saturday af
ternoon. A check-up immediately
after the game revealed only a mi
nor bruise. However, a closer ex
amination was made and it was
found that the star footballist’s
shoulder demanded serious atten
tion.
Franklin’s loss will be of little
significance in the Orangemen’s
next tilt, against Columbia univer
sity, but, minus the services of the
“Red” flash,” the Orange prospects
for wins over Southern California
on October 20 and Washington
State college on October 27 are
greatly lessened.
Although he has been on the sick
list since the opening of the season,
this is the first time that Franklin
has been definitely ruled out of
play because of injuries. He is not
expected to see action again until
the contest with University of
Washington at Seattle, November
3.
Former Oregon
Student Arrested
For False Report
‘Revolutionary Conditions
Exaggerated,’ Says
Madrid Wire
News of the arrest of Jay Allen
in Spain as a detail of the revolu
tionary troubles came over the
wires from Madrid yesterday.
Allen was a member of the class
of 1022 in the University of Ore
gon and was, during his under
graduate career, prominent on the
Emerald staff as a contemporary
of Ernest J. Hayccx, Kenneth
Youel and Allan Carncross, a bril
liant group of writers of that per
iod.
His home is in Seattle, where his
father, Jay C. Allen, is a well
known attorney and landholder.
Before coming to Oregon he at
tended college at Washington
State. His wife (Ruth M. Austin)
was a classmate in the school of
journalism.
Allen has been corespondent in
Spain for the Chicago Tribune for
several years and is recognized
as one of the most capable of the
younger Europeean correspondents
for American papers. He visited
Oregon about six months ago and
was expecting to be back out west
this month.
The Madrid dispatch reported
Hunter's arrest as based on a
charge of exaggerating reports of
revolutionary conditions. The rea
son assigned for the detention of
Allen was not given.

Racqueteers in
Second Round of
Fall Tournament
Sixeten out sanding recquet
vielders on the Oregon campus are
jarticipating in the second-round
natches of the fall varsity invi
.ational tennis tournament now in
Organized and operating under the
guidance of Paul R. Washke, dir
ector of intramural sports and var
sity tennies coach, the meet got
.inder way last Saturday and will
:ontinue until the deadline for the
final matches set for the eary part
jf next week.
The tournament is an elimina
tion affair, but no contestant is
disqualified until he has suffered
two defeats.
The entrants in the tourney were
selected by Mr. Washke from a
list of the leading recqueteers in
the school. The tournament was
devised to provide a means of
choosing the eight top-ranking
tennies players and will also serve
as a fair barometer of the Web
foot tennis chances for the 1935
season.
Following are the winners of the ^
first-round matches: Hague Cal
lister, George Economus, George
Bikman, Cosgrove LaBarre, Nor
man Winslow, Fred Fisher, and
John Economus.
STANFORD FROSH GOOD
Coach Jimmy Bradshaw, Stan
ford freshman coach, reports that
from all indications he will have a
better freshman team than that
of 1933, which was rated one of
the best yearling teams ever turned
out at a California school. It looks
like football is on the upward
trend even with all the crying by
most coaches about the lack of
material.
