VOLUME XXXIV *'*«*>' UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1934 Page 4 T Duck Tracks P>y CLAIR JOHNSON Emerald Sports Editor Squad Fighting Mud; Are Randy to Spill Huskies Everywhere When the train pulls out at noon tomorrow it will be carrying a squad of fighting and determined Webfoots who are really out to mess things up in general on Mult nomah field the next day and send Phelan and his Husky lads back with another trimming just like they have handed them for the past six years. The latest reason for all the big push to smear the northern gentle men a bit seems to be a sort of a notice of some form or other that stuck l itself up in the training quarters at the Igloo last night. This little statement had some thing in it that gave everyone a very distinct impression that Mr. Phelan thinks the Oregon eleven is a bunch of mugs and nothing else but. Now this does not set very well with a gridiron idol or even a just average fotball player or in fact any gridster so the local boys are a hit aroused and will enter Sat urday’s game more set than ever to make mush of the Huskies. I'liclun on Spot Considering that Oregon is really keyed up to meet Washing ton it looks as though Jimmy Phelan is really on the spot pro per. Webfoot fans are descending on Portland some 10,000 strong from various parts of the state and they don't care what happens to Jimmy. Another 10,000 spectators and rail bird coaches are flocking in from Seattle anil they don’t care what hapens to Jimmy either— ail they want is a stop put to this thing of the Ducks annexing con tinuous whitewash victories. And they are howling very, very loud and insisting quite strongly on having either a Webfoot dinner or a Phelan scalp before the day is over. » * * Now everyone has felt ft bit sympathetic for Jimmy because of the awkward situation he is in but it is about time some of the Cal lison cohorts put the crying towel on the shelf and started directing their efforts towards doing a little cheering for the Oregon eleven. The bear stories breaking out from the Husky camp have been more boring and less deceptive as time goes on in fact they are get ting tiresome and it almost seems that Phelan needs a new press agent or something. The last ad dition was the ballyhoo yesterday that Muczinsky is laid up for some time. Maybe this one is on the level but it sounds something like the one about putting the vets on the bench in favor of the sophs. Things arc really starting to look worse than ever for the for mer Purdue coach. Get a couple of thousand Webfoot rooters really interested in this thing as much as they sometimes do in local campus polities and they would go up there backing the Ducks so strong that the team would have more reason than ever to go out there and scatter Huskies around. * » # So without any more reasons than the few scattered above things are looking pretty much pro-Webfoot and it's still the 1-e mon-Yellow over the Huskies by at least a touchdown and if they really get going the Calllson lads won’t stop with even that.

M Webfoot Grid Club Heads for Portland at Noon Today All Coast Eyes Husky Game This Weekend 12,000 Seattleites Hope To See Ducks Beat Cards Expect Hard Tilt; O.S.C., Bears, W.S.C. Have Breathers With the Husky-Webfoot battle topping the day’s slate of games the Pacific Coast conference teams and other coast elevens will get into action again tomorrow after a week of rest following the dope upsettng tilts of last Saturday. The rush on Portland will start today and continue until game time. Already over 12,000 Seattle ites are certain to be there and will be all set to see their team break up the winning streak of the Calli son coached eleven. Although not nearly such a large delegation will be on hand from Eugene the Web foots will have plenty of backing and are howling for another addi tion to the Duck victory string. YV.S.C. Meets Bulldogs Even though the Washington State Cougars downed the famed Trojan eleven of Southern Califor nia last week their remarkable per formance has evinced no signs of fear in the hearts of the Gonzaga Bulldogs. The Bulldogs have al ways had an uncanny habit of throwing championship teams off balance and will be in there with plenty of fight although they are the underdogs. Montana is stepping deep into enemy territory tomorrow when they play the U. C. L .A. Bruins at Los Angeles. However, if Bill Spaulding’s sun tanned boys fail to make as much or more progress against Montana than they have against their opponents in the last two games they are liable to find themselves on the short end of the scoring. The Montana team is light but unusually fast. Beavers Have Breather Oregon State and Columbia play a "breather” tomorrow at Corval lis, but with Columbia team an xious to redeem themselves for the overwhelming defeat that they suf fered at the hands of the Gaels in their last game it might not prove to be such of a breather for the Beavers. With Franklin out of the game definitely, it will serve to boost the spirits of the Colum bia team somewhat. Alonzo A. Stagg, veteran coach, now at the College of Pacific at Stockton will send his boys from the raisin fields over to the Uni versity of California for a non-con ference game. An injured hip for Bobby Gray son has caused Coach C. E. “Tiny” Thornhill to make plans for an aerial attack against Northwest ern when they meet tomorrow on the Palo Alto gridiron. Grayson will be in the game but is not ex pected to play the whole four quar ters for the Bears. Green ‘O' Found On Seattle Tower The students of the University of Washington were very much surprised when they arrived on the campus Thursday morning and found that some very sly and clev er Oregon students had painted a huge green "O” on the chimes tow er of the campus. Immediately open season was de clared on the sign painters by some 8800 collegians. An observ ing student reported that he saw two ears with Oregon licences speed away from the tower about 1 :S0 a. m. The Emerald had not learned by this morning if the “O” was still on the tower or not. Authorities on the subject are very doubtful if the little green masterpiece is still intact.

Low Kates 1 > Blocks—-‘Joe Phone 272 XJ CARS u Drive FOR RENT Drive * Injury Bars Him Matt Muczynski, Washington full, injured during scrimmage. He will probably be kept out of the game Saturday, according to reports from the Husky headquarters today. Coach Grooms Frosh to Battle Normal Team Frosh coach, Irv Schutz, is point ing toward the Southern Oregon Normal clash which comes on Oc tober 26, exactly two weeks from today. Meanwhile Oregon’s foot ball yearlings have been “cannon fodder” in the more-or-less friend ly scrimmages with the varsity. After weeks of monotonous drill on fundamentals, the best material has begun to emerge and the play ers have learned to function as a team. The “first team,” while not exceptional as compared to past elevens, is nevertheless expected to hold its own in the impending wars with the Oregon State Kooks. Outstanding in the recurrent scrimmages with the varsity has been the work ow two Duckling ends, Melvin Engels and Lief Ja cobsen. Jacobsen, an all-star cen ter from Jefferson high in Port land, has adapted himself quickly to the new position. Bardell Pur cell, reserve end, has also shown to advantage of late. Two beefy boys from Washing ton high have descended upon the campus to add weight to the Duck ling forward wall. Tony Amato, chunky guard, is almost as tall horizontally as vertically and makes the Fairbanks groan under his 200 pounds. Just as colorful is the jovial Oriental, Charles Shi mumura, who seems fairly certain of his tackle berth. The Duckling backfield, weak ened by the loss of Bud Goodin, still contains some ball packers which cannot be lightly taken. Dale LaSalle, Grant high star of last year, will fill the injured Goodin's shoes at left half. California’s gift is Frank Swall, who hails from Palo Alto and who does the hard est blocking work as La Salle's running mate. At fullback is the very hard-hitting and efficient Les ter Lewis. Blaine McCord at quar ter completes the list of the pig skin toters. Commission Orders Phone Hate Kednetion PORTLAND, Ore,, Oct. 11.— (API Three amt one-half years of investigation and hearings had resulted tonight in an order from Public Utilities Commissioner Thomas calling for a reduction of from 8 to 10 per cent in Pacific Telephone and Telegraph company rates for local exchange service in Oregon. Officials of the company in Port land received copies of the order tonight.

Oct. 11 (Special) —Oregon State and Columbia uni versity are scheduled to clash on Bell field at 4 p. m. today. Lon Stiner, State voach, pulled his men out of practice night be fore last, figuring they had all the steam necessary. As this is a non-conference Mitola will sub for Tomshcek, a regular. The chances are that Tom sheck will see very little action, due to a slight hip bruise; Lon Stiner is not risking a repetition of Franklin’s condition when his team goes up against Southern California next week. Sport dopesters' have Oregon State figured as an almost positive win over the Cliff dwellers and very little anxiety is shown in the Orange camp. Spain Seeks Evidence Of Russian Instigation Madrid, Oct. 11- Police today investigated possibility that Rus sian conspirators might have aided Spain’s revolt, as troops bored into the mountain fastneses of Astur ias after the revolution's last or ganized forces. The arrest at Sevila of Julio Lu cena, official of the tourist bureau, in whgise • possession police said they found several thousand pes etas and documents indicating Russian plotters were involved set the police investigation under way.

Disregarding Bear stories from the Husky strongholds the Ducks are prepared for anything and are in a determined although not cocky mood to meet anything the Seat tleites have to offer. Washington *avorea The dope is slightly pro-Husky despite last minute reports from Phelan that Matt Muczynski, hard hitting fullback will be out for the entire game. Aiming to keep his small squad in the best condition possible, Coach Prink Callison went easy in practice last night and only a light workout was held. With Budd Jones, regular right end definitely out, the vacated post will be filled by Vince “Lamp” Walker. Weighing in around the 197 pound mark the California junior college transfer towers six feet two inches. Backs Shifted A new backfield shift finds Johnny Reischman doing quarter back duty in the absence of Hugh McCredie, who has pulled a muscle. Reischman is a hard blocker and will understudy Ralph Terjeson, who will need relief at his position because of a bruised shoulder. In the workout last night the right half post was taken care of Walt Buck and Maury Van Vliet. Although the tiny lad was the star of the U.C.L.A. debacle last week he will doubtless remain on the bench in favor of the heavier Back. Most of the other Duck grid sters are in fine shape and are an xious to prove that the Bruin vic tory was no fluke. Callison has worked hard to prevent over-con fidence after the smashing 26-3 victory and so far seems to have succeeded. Tackles Are Problem Although Washington gained a victory over Idaho via the aerial route, it is the off-tackle slants on the short side of the line where the northerners excel. Burl Bufkin is a deadly runner in this respect and veterans still remember his playing of the 1932 game. Callison realizes the Husky power in this department and with the weak showing of the tackles against U. C. L. A. the linemen have been •'EUGENE'S OWN STORE" McMorran & Washburne MERCHANDISE OF MERIT ONLY -PHONE 2700-• A Sale of ‘Montag’ Stationery Monogrammed With Your Own Initials ‘J4 Shoots Envelopes in Four Attmotive Stylos Monogrnmmod in Silver.

PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 11.— (AP) — Jefferson high school’s powerful football machine easily defeated the Commerce high school team here this afternoon, 26 to 0, in an interscholastic league game. Near perfect blocking was the chief factor in Jefferson's victory. iiiiiiHiiiimmiBiiiimnimiiiiMuiiiBiMnmiiiMniiMiiimiiiii New Aquatic Star Appears In Donut Meet Dave Maguire Wins Fast Backstroke Race Gamma Hall, Fiji, S.P.E., Winners of Third Round Matches A real varsity swimming pros pect emerged from yesterday’s in tramural swimming tilts, always a good source of material. Dave Ma guire, sophomore transfer from Oregon State, swam the 40 yard back stroke in :25.5 which swim ming officials consider an excep tionally fast time for an intramur al splasher. Varsity swimming coach, Mike Hoyman, expressed himself as “greatly pleased” by Maguire’s showing, especially since the varsity squad is in need of good backstroke men. Maguire is the second luminary who has come from the ranks of the donuteers, James Hurd being the first. Gamma hall, Phi Gamma Delta, and Sigma Phi Epsilon were last night's winners in the swimming events, while Theta Chi, Sigma Al pha Epsilon, and Phi Sigma Kap pa were chief mourners. Gamma Hall, 36; Theta Chi, 11 “Squeak” Lloyd and Fred Lees of Gamma hall forecast the out come of the meet as they spun home in the 40 yard free style event ahead of Bill Parsons of The ta Chi. “Squeak” placed first in the next event, too, the 40 yard back stroke, as Theta Chis, Jack Granger and Bill Peterson trailed him to the finish line. Melvin Ken nedy and Chester Bauman took an other first and second for the hall in the 40 yard breast stroke. The most exciting event in this match was the 120 yard medley. Jack Granger of Theta Chi took the lead in the first lap; in the second lap the Gamma swimmer lessened the lead; but in the final flourish anchor man, Howard Lo bach, edged out big Sam Liebow itz to win Theta Chi’s only first place. Fred Lees won the 60 yard individual swim for Gamma and then, with his teammates, Kennedy ■iiiiHimmiimiiiHiiiiiHiiiiiiHiHmimiimiiMiHiiimiiiiiBiiiiii Deadline for Entries In All-Campus Sports At 5 p.m. This Evening All campus sports enthusi asts who have not yet signed up for the events must1 do so by 5 p. m. tonight at which time the lists will be closed to enteries. So far the response to horse shoes, tenis doubles, and ping pong doubles has been excep tionally light, and unless more entries are received it is ex tremely unlikely that tourna ments will be conducted in those events. Fair-sized fields are al ready signed up for golf, ten nis, and ping pong. Entries may be made at the bulletin board at the Univer sity entrance of the men’s gym. and Lloyd, annexed the 120 yard relay. Fiji, 36; S.A.E., 6 Jim Schofield and John Meador won the first and second for Phi Gamma Delta in the first event. This was followed by the 40 yard backstroke in which their cohort, Dave Maguire, stole the show. The swimmers looked fairly even in the 40 yard breast stroke. However S.A.E.’s swimmer Hood went half the distance of this “frog race’’ under water so that the outcome was uncertain until Bill Hutchin son, Fiji flash, tagged the end of the tank slightly ahead of the field. After a slow start, the Fiji med ley team composed of Bob Seu fert, Larry Crane, and Jim Scho field snatched the 120 yard “thrash” from the Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Larry Crane capped the meet with a first in the 60 yard individual race. S.P.E., 39; Phi Sig, 3 An even greater massacre was the S.P.E.-Phi Sig encounter in which Bobby Anderson placed first in three events. But Jean Prevot and Arne Lindgren started things off by taking the one-two in the 40 yard free style. Anderson starred in the back stroke, breast stroke, and 60 yard individual events. He was supported by John Cauller in the back stroke dash and Ken Lottridge in the breast stroke. The S.P.E.’s medley team of Pre vot, Lottridge, and Cauller went to town on the 120 yard distance and their free style relay team with Pete Welch, Cauller, and Pre vot finished up the evening. i I I 1 ■ a I Are You Doing Your Duty?
