Duck Tracks By CLAIR JOHNSON Emerald Sports Editor Yearlings Are Loggy But Shoiv Occasional Speedy, Bright Spots ALTROUGH fails were a bit dis appointed in the rather loggy showing Irv Schulz’s frosh made against the Sons last Saturday they came away assured of at least one thing. The bright little assur ance is that the Yearlings have gone through the mill on what rough stuff is and, if necessary, they will be well prepared when they clash with the Rooks this weekend. Howard Hobson's boys were, as usual, quite the roughnecks and seemed to include several new tricks in their repertoire. In fact, they even seemed to enjoy rough ing things up after the whistle blew and at all stages of the game a good deal more than the varsity teams who are not so polite do. Another thing the fans can be glad about is the fact that most likely Alan Wilson, the southerns’ end who was smearing things up in general, will be a Webfoot again next season if his scholarship and such meets the approval of the necessary committees. Alan was one of the stars of the Yearling eleven of 1933. And still another pleasing little feature was the bits of flashy open field running Dale Lasalle showed. If Dale is second rate compared to Bud Goodin, injured and out of the game, and whose place Dale is taking, we would certainly like to see Bud run. * it # Also the promise of some of the loggy linemen cannot be over looked. Although they were slow in getting started, weak in block ing and not very fast in much of anything they were heavy and beefy and occasionally they seemed to show bursts of speed that indi cated they might really do some thing if some sort of inspiration struck them. Moore, Amato, and Shimomuro all look like good ma terial and with some more working over and speeding up by a veteran like Dutch Clark ought to turn out fairly well. Women’s Volleyball Program Starts Soon Plans for inter-house volleyball are being made by Louisa Parry, volleyball manager. All sororities planning to enter teams this year are asked to get in touch with Miss Parry by phoning 688. More than 36 women have been turning out for volleyball practice which is held every evening except Friday at 5 p. m. in the women’s gym. Class team mangers will be elected this week. A SCORE OF YEARS of good cleaning and finishing for U. of 0. students is our record. EUGENE CLEANERS 245 East Broadway Phone 75 Varsity Basketball Five Starts Practice Sessions Splashers Vie As Water Polo Gets Started Phi Psi, Theta Chi Teams Win Openers Pi Kaps Forfeit Victors; Chi Psi„ Dell Squads Lost Till The 1934 intramural water polo tournament got under way yester day at the men's swimming pool with Phi Kappa Fsi defeating the Chi Psi's 4-0, Theta Chi downing Delta Tau Delta 2-0, and Pi Kappa Alpha winning over Sigma hall via the forfeit route. Phi Kappa Psi, with Dick and Don Brooke doing all the scoring, had little dificuity in downing the Chi Psi’s. Exhibiting a rugged de fense and a smooth working of fense, they left the pool at half time leading by a 1-0 score, thanks to a long shot by Don Brooke which caromed off a closely guarding opponent. Brooke Hot In the final period Dick Brooke, displaying uncanny accuracy with his shots, three times slammed the ball into the wire goal cage to bring the final count to 4-0 in favor of the Phi Kappa's. The second game, between Delta Tau Delta and Theta Chi, was a little closer, the first half gun finding the two teams deadlocked, 0-0. Jimmy Blais, Delt goalie, came through with a couple of brilliant saves in this period to keep his team from being scored upon. Delts Lose Playing with only six men after A1 Clampitt, main cog in the Delt team, was forced out of the game for infractions of the rules, the Delts were unable to stem the Theta Chi onslaught in the last | half and Parsons and Pease, for wards, both slammed a goal home to give their team the victory. Three more games will be played tomorrow with Delta Up silon meeting the Yeomen, Beta Theta Pi playing Sigma Chi, and Phi Sigma Kappa vying with Pi Kappa Alpha. Stars at Gotham Al Nieheiisii, star half for St. Mary’s, \\ ho materiiilly helped the Gaels take Fcrdham’s Kams at New York, 11-9, to bring the bacon back to the Pacific coast. Freshman Squad Open Basketball Practice Today Jim Watts, acting Frosh bas ketball coach, issued the frist call for yearling aspirants yesterday, All freshmen who plan to turn out for Frosh basketball are to be at the Iglco today at 4 p. m Watts has asked that they call at the men's gym for equipment in time to make prompt appearance at the meeting. Those turning out today will be excused early from practice in order to return equip ment. A big turnout is expected and Watts has hopes of developing a crack squad this year. Oregon Drills For Utah Tilt This Saturday Five Injuries Threaten To Crush Hopes Terjeson Kept on Bench Until O. S. C. Fray In November A battered crop off University of Oregon footballists turned out for practice yesterday afternoon to begin preparation for Satur day's battle with the Utah Indi ans at Salt Lake City. Badly bruised following their 13 to 6 victory over Idaho last week end, five Webfoots appeared on the training field suffering from injuries. Although they are work ing out daily, Bob Parke, Ralph Terjeson, Frank Michek, Dick Bishop and Clarence Codding are all under the doctor's care. Terjeson, Michek, and Bishop are the most seriously injured of this quintet of gridders and the Duck squad may be minus the services of all three men in the coming contest. Terjeson Out Terjeson re-injured his side which was first hurt in the Wash ington game and was definitely ruled out of play by “Doc” Hay ward for the next three weeks. He will not be ready for action again until the fracas with Oregon State on November 10. Michek, besides suffering from a recurrence of his knee injury, pulled a shoulder muscle, while Bishop banged his shoulder, which was already in bad shape. It is not certain whether or not these men will be able to play against the Utes, but Hayward hopes to have one or the other in good con dition by Saturday. Parke, Codding O. K. Bob Parke wrenched his knee and "cauliflowered” his ear and Codding twisted his shoulder However, both will be ready for the Rocky mountain aggregation. Despite the condition of the Ore gon gridsters, Callison did not hesitate to send his men through a stiff workout Monday, and the Webfoots engaged in a tough scrimmage with the Frosh team before “calling it quits.” Ex-Oregon Man, Stan Kostka, Puls Fear Into Rivals According to a dispatch from Chicago on the University of Min nesota-Pittsburg game, Stan Kost ka, ex-Oregon back, was the “spearhead of the Gopher atack and it was the Panthers’ fear of his tremendous drives that made the scoring plays work so effec tively.” Throughout the game, constant fear on the part of the Panthers centered almost exclusively in the dynamic, driving figure of Stan Kostka ,who is rated by sports writers as an outstanding mem ber of the “Big Ten" and the best cruncher in years. .Send the Emerald to your friends.

Will Make Indians Bile Dust Walter Back, former California junior college star, is slated to get his first real chance on the Oregon grid team this Saturday when they attempt to scalp the Utah Indians. Beavers l ie House of Troy As Ducks Win Over Idaho Oregon football teams upheld the Oregon grid name in a decisive way in Saturday's games, and head the list of Saturday’s ex pected victories. The University of Oregon’s defeat of the Idaho Van dals to the tune of 13 to 6 set the University's football record back on its feet after the loss of the Washington game, putting the Ducks back in the coast confer ence rating. Oregon State held the powerful U. S. C. gridders to a 6-6 tie in their game at the Los Angeles Coliseum, giving them a seventh position. In California Saturday games gave Stanford a <3-0 victory over San Francisco U. on a field goal kicked by Jim “Monk” Moscrip, while the University of California took a similar score over U.C.L.A, with Williams’ kick. San Jose I State tied a scoreless hour of play with the California Aggies, 0-0. Other coast clashes Saturday were Montana and Montana | School of Mines, score -19-0 in Montana U.'s favor, and little Pac ific U. and Columbia played a 13 13 tie.

Yale ran true to form in running over Brown, 37-0. Western division games showed Notre Dame a 13-0 win from Carnegie Tech, while Michigan swamped the powerful Georgia Tech 9-2. Once great Wisconsin lost to Purdue, 14-0. In the south, Davison took a de cisive loss from Duke, 20-0, Ala bama won from Tennessee, 13-8, and Vanderbilt won from Auburn by the close tally of 7-6.

Frosli Prepare For Rook Game After SON Loss Still smarting from the 7 to 0 defeat at the hands of Southern Oregon normal last Saturday, the Frosh put up a stubborn defense against the Varsity last night. The scrimmage proved costly as Hill, right half, injured his right knee and may be out for the rest of the season. Charles Shimomura, giant tackle, injured his arm, but the injury should not be serious enough to keep him out of Fri day's contest with the Kooks. Outstanding in last Saturday’s game were Tony Amato at right guard, Moore at center, and Dale Lasselle at left half. The team put up a good defensive fight against their more experienced op ponents, but their offense failed to click. Poor blocking and lack of speed on the part of the inter ference handicapped the frosh run ning plays, while the aerial route failed due to many interceptions by the Ashland backfield. Coach lrv Schultz will have to drive his squad hard for the rest of the week as there are only three days of practice before the first Oregon State Rook game to be played in Eugene Friday night. At present the Rooks are heavy fa vorites over the Duck yearlings due to injuries and the compara tive scores against Southern Ore gon normal. The Rooks downed the southern Oregon team 13 to 0 earlier in the season. FLASHESBACK IN SPORTS 5, 10, and 15 Years Ago Today 1929 Six intramural basket ball tilts furnished a busy after noon in donut sport circles yes terday. The Sphinx squad out classed Kappa Sigma 37-18 in the most exciting contest. Hi * * 1924— The first official varsity basketball practice workout was held Tuesday afternoon in the gym. Amout 25 men turned out - only two lettermen. 1919—Soccer bids fair to lie the leading minor sport. A shipment of long-awaited equipment was re ceived today, so all students tak ing soccer for credit will have no further excuse to cut. Bears Fear Huskies BERKELEY, Calif., Oct. 22 (AP) With his California Bears still nursing bumps and bruises sustained in the bitter struggle with the California at Los Angeles Bruins last week, Coach Bill In gram warned his football hope fuls today they could expect an even tougher game with Washing ton next Saturday. “X look for the Washington game to bo the hardest so far Lhis season,” Ingram said. Reinhart Has First Workout For Hoop Men Seven Lettermen Return For Season j Jones Boys, Berg Head List of Veteran Players Oregon’s 1935 basketball squad i turned out for Its first practice at McArthur court last night. Seventeen men reported to varsity Coach Bill Reinhart to engage in a light work-out. Of this group seven are letter men and three were regulars on on last year's team. Regulars in clude lanky Willie Jones, Captain elect Bill Berg, and Bud Jones. Thus far in the year Bud Jones has been playing first string end on the Webfoot grid club. It is probable, however, that Bud will don a basketball suit in December rather than accompany the foot ball squad to Louisiana. Veterans Back Four other lettermen from last year's squad are available: Bob Miller, Ron Gemmell, Glen San ford. and Roland Rourke. Miller, reserve center last year, has two varsity basketball awards. Gem mell, Sanford, and Rourke all have had enough varsity experience to be valuable assets to the team this year. Five potential varsity men from last year’s frosh team joined the senior squad. Heading the list is big Sam Liebowitz, who is almost sure of a place on the 1935 Web foot quintet. John Lewis, Arne Faust, Duke Hardisty, and John l I On Bench Noiv Above is Ralph Terjeson, veter an Oregon quarterback, who sus tained injuries in the Vandal con test which will keep him on the bench until the annual Beaver “civil war.” PIGSKIN PORTRAITS Editor’s note: The following is another in the series of articles by Bill Mclntnrff which are presenting the various members of the 1934 Webfoot grid team. MAURY VAN VLIET All-coast? That is what Oregon football fans are asking them selves about “Flea” Van Vliet, 155 pound speedster. Three little men —Cotton Warburton of the Tro jans, Red Franklin, and Maury Van Vliet*—were outstanding all coast backfield candidates at the beginning of this season. Now that the other two stars have temporarily declined in lum inance due to injuries, Van Vliet leads the list of the bantam weight contenders. * * * A “little man with a big re cord” is Oregon's carot top. At Citrus J. C. in California Maury was all-conference quarterback, all-conference center fielder, high point man in basketball and track. A sort of one-man college. At Oregon Maury has won con siderable note as la “dry turf” runner, majoring in around the end sprints and cut backs. In the Washington game he demon si rated his ability as a quick kicker. He bore the burden of the punting in Oregon’s soggy en counter with Idaho. But "Flea” excels in passing. At the present he is Oregon’s pre mier pigskin tosser. He special izes in the bullet pass and in the short accurate throws into the flat zone. Mullen complete the list of fro&h “graduates.” Prospects Bright Basketball prospects look brighter this season than they have in the past. Reinhart has a veteran triumvirate in Berg, Bud and Willie and can draw from such first class material at San ford, Liebowitz, and Rourke to complete the five. A prediction that Oregon will place either first or second in the Northwest conference might not be in line this early in the season, yet this is the goal toward which Reinhart and his veteran squad are driving. Tour Planned Pre-season arrangements call for varsity practices but three nights out of the week. Beginning the first part of November the squad will turn out for daily pract ice sessions. As a means of giving practical scrimmage work-outs to his team, Coach Reinhart will take the Duck five on a barn-storming tour of California during the Christmas holidays. On January 4 Oregon meets Washington State, its first con ference opponent, in Eugene.
