L. ■ .iff Duck Frosh Hand OSC Men 10-7 Loss Clash Marked by Strong Line Playing: Lewis’ Kick Wins; Kolberg, Lasselle Star By BILL McINTURFF A spirited Frosh team definitely demonstrated its supremacy over the Oregon State Rooks with a 10 to 7 victory on Hayward field yes terday afternoon. The Ducklings entered the game the supposed under dogs but an impenetratable line coupled with a backfield which con sistently sparked sent them on the road to victory. While the juvenile elevens seemed at a par, the Frosh, in reality, played a much more conservative game. Throughout the game the Orange Rooks resorted to laterals and wild fluries of passing. They attempted 23 passes, completing but five. Oregon’s first year men made only six attempts, completing two. However, so strong were the for ward walls of both teams that power plays were to no avail. The majority of the yardage came from trick plays, end runs, and the “breaks of the game.” Lasselle Wears Mask Dale Lasselle, diminutive Duck ling ball carrier, stole the show. ( Wearing a green mask to protect a broken nose, the flashy safety man played the entire game and was leading yardage gainer for the Greenies. In the first quarter, too, his perfect spiraling fifty yard punts brought admiring “aaaahs” from the stands, but a knee in jury received at the end of this period began to tell on his boot ing distance. •In the clash of football person alities, Elmer Kolberg for the Rooks stood out against the snaky hipped Lasselle. Kolberg’s consist ent punting pulled the Oregon Statettes out of many a “hot spot.” Time and again when his team had its back to the goal line El mer sent the pigskin sailing out of dangerous territory. The big full back averaged 46 yeards on his punts—10 yards better than Las selle’s average. First Quarter Slow The first quarter saw both teams ‘sparring” for an advantage. It immediately became evident that Coach Irv Schultz’s new triumvir ate on the left side of the line was everything that he had hoped. Finding each other mutually in vulnerable, the teams resorted to long punt exchanges. The Frosh opened up in the sec ond quarter and began a sporadic march up the field. Then quarter bank Lee Canessa, breaking into the Rook backfield, snagged a short pass from Lasselle and loped down the field for a touch down. Lester Lewis sent the ball looping accurately over the cross bars for the extra point. After a feverish passing barrage from the Rooks, the half ended 7 to 0 for the Oregon team. Fake Play Works Oregon’s second march, goal ward began as Dale Lasselle ran back a punt on his “broken-rhy thm” side lines speciality. Sensa tion of the day, however, was the fake kick-Statue of Liberty play. Willy Williamson rattled off over twenty yards on the baffling, trick play. On the next play Lasselle skirted the end for a 28 yard gain. Williamsons’ short pass to the Masked Marvel then put the Frosh but 15 yards from the goal line. Three dismal tries found the ball only two yards closer to the goal and boxed in a comer of the field. With nice headwork and even greater confidence, the Duckling signal barker called Lester Lewis back for a hard-angle place kick. Lewis's toe obliqued the ball to wards and over the goal posts in a perfect kick to give the Frosh a 10 to 0 lead. Almost Score Again The Ducklings made yet another bid for the desirable dozen points later in the third quarter when Leif Jacobsen, Frosh end, inter cepted Gray’s pass and ran the ball to the Beaverino seven yard line just as the quarter ended. Again the Rooks were puncture proof on their home ground and again Lew is attempted a place kick, but this time the pigskin did not gain enough altitude. Getting the ball, the Orange Statettes once again stormed the air with passes. Six Rook tosses in a row threatened the Greenie goal. Then on a punt-return down the sidelines Joe Gray, regular fullback, dashed over the goal for the only touchdown for the Rooks. The try for point was good. The game ended with Browning and Romaini. reserve Duckling backs, knifing through the Bea verino fonvaj$ !iq.e for -iseable iiims. k Duck Tracks By CLAIR JOHNSON Emerald Sports Editor Pressbox Glimpses Of Frosh-Rook Grid Contest Yesterday TV ETAINING his reputation as a pick-em and miss-em foot ball forecaster, Iguesso Kong re turned to his corner in the sports room desk drawer yesterday after seeing a bunch of Oregon lads of the class of '3S suddenly realize they were pretty fair gridmen, in a shift from the more or less loggy nature they have had since frosh football practice began. Although still kind of weak kneed on offense and unable to gain at all on line plays, the Duck lings were a vastly different team than a week ago and completely outplayed their Rooky rivals. Interesting to watch was the sparky battle between the two center-captains, Frank Ramsay and Vernon Moore. When the fun was over the Duckling cap had the edge on the highly touted 237 pound Ramsay in general play, with part of his advantage laying in better passing than Ramsay’s shoestring offerings to the Beaver ette backs. The visitors scored the only first down from scrimmage made dur ing the first half and it was on a penalty. «s Iff Both lines were defensively strong—when a back attempted to smash, the whole side of the line would smother him before he could get across the line of scrimmage. Besides his sparkling play throughout the contest Dale Las selle came through with some fine judgment on certain plays—once he did a bit of nice work when he prevented a Kook end from down Frosh Hoop Five To Start Regular Practice Monday Squad Numbers 35 Now ; Watts in Charge At Present Fresman basketball practice, under the direction of Jim Watts, member of last year’s Webfoot varsity five, will get into full swing Monday at the Igloo when daily sessions will start. So far this season the Yearling basketeers have been working out only twice a week, but Watts an nounced last night that from now on the men would be expected to turn out daily. To date there have been about ?5 athletes showing up for place.; on the 1934 Frosh quintet but Watts expects more with the reg ular practices opening. As before the men will get their equipment and dress down at the men's gym and then go on up to McArthur court for the sessions which will start $.1 4 each after noon. Sigma Nu, Beta, Yeoman Quintets Grab Hoop Wins Kappa Sig, SAM, Sigma Lose in Third Day’s Contests Monday’s “A” Gaines 4:00—Phi Gamma Delta vs. Phi Kappa Psi. 4:40—Alpha Tail Omega vs. Alpha hall. 5:20—Sigma Alpha Mu vs. Delta Tau Delta. Coming back, after trailing 8 to 5 at the half, the Yeomen basket ball team last night upset a hard fighting Sammy five by a 18 to 13 score. Silver led the scoring for the losers as he contributed 9 of their total counters. Kjosness and Elder got hot in the last half of the battle to drop in 6 and 4 tallies respectively after Spencer had made all the indepen dent men's scores in the first half. Few Tallies Made In a hard fought but rough and low-scoring game Kappa Sigma was edged out 6 to 5 by last year’s championship Beta quintet. The winners were far from being the team which captured last season’s crown and like their opponents had no outstanding men. Beard scored two field goals and Fischer and the others for the win ners, while Wade dropped two baskets for the Kappa Sigs and Hablett added the other point on a gift shot. Runaway Victory Showing the smoothest passing attack of the evening a neat click ing Sigma Nu team had a weak Sigma hall five completely at their mercy and ran up a 26 to 4 vic tory. Miller, at guard for the losers, was the only man to ring the hall quint’s basket and then only late in the game. For the victors Mc Millan looked good as he popped in four field goals and a free throw, while his teammate, Bill Dick, out scored him by one counter. Boyd, Nilison, and Koskelo each dropped in a counter to complete the scor ing. Yesterday's games marked the third day of play in the round-rob in donut hoop tournament. ing an O.S.C. punt on the frossli one-yard line by keeping the man out of the play until the ball rolled over. A feminine cheering section was decidedly missing yesterday for some reason or other. One of the lads working with the loud speaker equipment looked slightly out of place as he wan dered around with a tattered old baseball cap for a helmet. Social note: Blue is the predom inating color for men’s sweaters on Friday afternoon at football games. Out of the mass of stu dents there yesterday, at least half were decked in pullovers and sip pers of some shade of blue. * * * The punting witnessed was tru ly beautiful. Both Kolberg and Lasselle were doing better than the booters in any varsity contest seen this year.

Theta Chi, Phi Psi, Beta Theta Pi Win Water Polo Tilts SPEs Pul Up Great Battle; Phi Sig, Fiji Teams Overcome Theta Chi, with an exciting 2-1 win over Sigma Phi Epsilon, ad vanced into the semi-final round of the intramural water polo tour nament, along with Beta Theta Pi and Phi Kappa Psi, who were also victorious in yesterday’s triple header at the men’s gym. The Theta Chi-S.P.E. struggle was a thriller from start to finish. Angell of the S.P.E.’s put his team out in front shortly after the open ing gun with a short shot from in front of the goal. From there on the tilt was a wide open affair, both goalies being hard pressed to defend their cages from the torrid attacks hurled at them. Parsons, the dead-eye-dick of the Theta Chis, with about four min utes to play, finally broke through the SPE defense to tie the score and a minute later gave his team the victory with a long shot from the middle of the pool. Stars Clicking The strong Beta Theta Pi team, as was expected, had little diffi culty ip downing Phi Sigma Kap pa by a 4-0 score. With their stars, Hug, Reed, and Cathey clicking in fine style, the Betas ran up a 3-0 count in the first half, and took things easy the final period to add one more tally to their already decisive score. In the other game Phi Kappa Psi blanked the Fijis 3-0 in a fast game which saw the Brooke bro thers, Don and Dick, scoring all the goals as usual. Checked close ly in the first half, the hard swim ming brothers finally broke loose in the second half to score three times for a Phi Psi victory.

TIESE Turkish tobaccos A are the only tobaccos of foreign cultivation that are used to any great extent in making American cigarettes. Turkish tobaccos are famous for their spicy aroma, and a blend of the right kinds of Turkish tobacco with our own home-grown tobaccos is better than any one kind used alone. In Chesterfield tec balance mild, ripe tobaccos grown in this country with just the right amounts of the right kinds of Turkish. It is by blending and cross blending these different tobac cos that we make Chesterfield the cigarette that’s milder, the cigarette that tastes better. rs/eA ► Turkish tobacco hung in the open air to be cured.
