Coach Has Premature
Explosion; It’s Donut
Sportsmanship Again
npHE ballyhooey has got under
way—it's off to a banging
start.
What ballyhoo ? — The all-star
seiecuuns.
Who started
it? — Bill "old
timer” Spaulding.
* * *
It happened
yesterday. The U.
C.L.A. coach had
his annual pre
mature explosion
and when the
pieces were
picked up they
BilU Spaulding fitted into a dia
gram of an all-coast football eleven
named by Mr. Spaulding, who
makes a yearly practice of pick
ing his stars before anyone else
starts and also makes sure to
name a few of the Uclans whether
they deserve it or not.
* * *
Here is what the former Minne
> sota grid mentor had to offer as he
named Bobby Grayson, Card full
• back, and Verdi Boyer, Bruin
guard, as the only two possible
considerations for all-American
ratings.
* * *
First Team
LE—Morse, Oregon.
LT—Reynolds, Stanford.
LG—Mucha, aWshington.
C—Saunders, Loyola.
RG—Boyer, U.C.L.A.
RT—Theodoratqs, W.S.C.
RE—Moscrip, Stanford.
QB—Williams, California.
LH—Hamilton, Stanford.
RH—Cheshire, U.C.L.A.
FB—Grayson, Stanford.
* • *
On his second team the Spauld
ing names Eddlitz, St. Mary’s and
Jones, Cal as ends; Ullin, Wash
ington, and Harper, U.S.C. tackles;
Stojak and Hayduk, both W.S.C.,
guards; Siemmering, S. F. U. cen
^ ter; Franklin, O.S.C. quarter; So
brei-o, Santa Clara and Nichelini,
St. Marys halves; and Sulkosky,
Washingto, fullback.
No use picking Bill’s selections
to pieces because plenty of others
will do that, but we would like to
kick about not seeing any Webfoot
faces on the second squad at least,
especially with Franklin and Sul
kosky, both on the bench with in
juries a fair part of the time, rat
ing the positions.
* * *
And who ever heard of Saund
ers ?
Anyhow we’ll wager that by the
time the end of the season roils
around the all-star elevens picked
by some of the more expert select
ors will be a good deal different
from friend Bill’s.
* * *
Apparently the complimentary
^ remarks made in this column yes
terday concerning the excellent
sportsmanship displayed by the
Chi Psi and Sigma Chi intramural
hoop teams were misconstrued by
certain parties.
* ■* *
.The statements made were not
intended as compliments for one
group and ‘slaps in the face’ for
the other. The sole purpose of the
remarks was to compliment both
teams upon the speedy arrange
ments they made for settling any
possible protest-forfeit mixup.

Players
The dormitory men come to new
life today, chalking up a couple
of fourth-quarter victories over the
Delts and the Kappa Sigs.
Delta Tau Delta was blasted by
the fighting Gamma haliers, 12 to
10, after trailing throughout.
With a 9 to 5 margin at the be
ginning of the fourth canto the
ftelts led by Dale Lasselle, flashy
Frosh gridder, sank into oblivion
as A1 Long headed the Gamma
five into a belated really, which
saw them dangle the hemp with
seven points.
A1 Long Leads in Win
A1 himself threw in two long
ones to deadlock the engagement
at 9-all. One a free throw, he sank
another, edging out ahead, 10 to 9.
But Jap Scruggs, stocky Delt for
ward evened the count by sinking
his foul toss after a hall technical
foul.
Warfare was on even terms in
the last minute until John Bracher,
another Frosh footballer, rung in
a fancy basket for the 12 to 10
point edge that finally meant the
game.
Omega hall snuggled in behind
the Betas in the three “A” league,
when it hung up a drag-’em-out
triumph over the Kappa Sigs, 13
to 11, at 5:20.
Gibson Barrage Decides
Dorm forward, roley-poley John
Gibson placed his monicker on the
sheet of leading scorers with a wel
come barrage of scores, two of
which went by the hoop with but
a few seconds to go in the last
stanza. Doc Hoblitt, front man for
the Kappa Sigs, barely missed a
long shot as the final whistle
tooted.
A1 Carter was the losers’ point-!

Leading Harrier Gets
Turkey Award
Different Scoring System
Is Inaugurated
For Meet
As an added incentive for vic
tory, in Friday’s intramural cross
country meet, Colonel Bill Hay
ward, athletic trainer, will present
a turkey to the runner crossing the
line first in the coming harrier
race.
The turkey is the second prize of
fered by Hayward, who is track
coach at Oregon. “Doc” has also
donated the trophy which will be
presented to the organization
scoring the highest number of
points in the race. This trophy will
be a perpetual award, the winning
group each fall keeping the prize
in its possession for one year. Any
organization winning the meet
three times, however, will be
awarded permanent possession of
the trophy.
The entry list for the race will
probably see approximately forty
runners starting the two-mile
grind. Forty-five athletes have
signed up for the race but several
of the number have failed to fill
their entrance requirements as yet
and are ineligible to compete.
To prevent runners from invol
untarily straying from the course
of the race and to keep racers from
purposely cutting off the main
lane, watchers will be stationed at.
various points on the course to di
rect the harriers.
To eliminate traffic interference,
either physical education students
or Eugene policemen will be placed
at the main intersections to regu
late traffic.
In this year's tourney the meet
officials will use a system of scor
ing entirely different from any
method formerly employed i n
cross-country matches. Unlike
former occasions, the team repre
sented by the victorious racer will
not win the race. Instead, the
group which earns the highest
number of points will be awarded
the championship trophy.
The following method will be
used to determine individual
scores: the first man to finish will
be awarded as many points as
there are participants in the race.
Thereupon, each successive finish
er will receive one less marker
than the runner who preceeded
him (i.e. should there be forty men
entered in the race the winner will
receive forty points; runner-up,
thirty-nine; third man, thirty
eight; etc.)
Individual scores will then be
added together and the organiza
tion whose representatives have
the highest aggregate score will
be acclaimed the winner. The win
ning group will be awarded 75
markers towards their all-year
total of points in intramural com
petition.
Any organization represented by
three runners who finish the race
in any position within the time
limit, to be determined soon, will
be given 30 points.
Point awards for other places
will be decided in the following
manner: the total of individual
points scored by a group will be
used as the numerator and the
number scored by the meet win
ners as the denominator; this
fraction will then be multiplied by !
forty-five and the result will be
the number of points awarded to
that group.

One of the most unique grid bat
tles in the annals of football his
tory was witnessed by the Prowl
ing Reporter on "Gerlinger” field
yesterday afternoon. Plunging,
passing, punting, and pigskin-tot
ing—two teams of Oregon coeds
gave an exhibition of powerhouse
football that made your correspon
dent’s eyes pop.
Stage Civil War
Evidently this girls’ gym class
was holding a post mortem of the
recent Oregon-Oregon State game.
On the long golden tresses of one
behemoth center perched a jaunty
green-and-yellow Oregon rooter’s
lid. The veteran playing the op
posing center, who must have
tipped the Fairbanks at a neat 206,
by means of a hair pin had fixed
an orange-and-black O.S.C. root
er’s lid on her head.
Luckily the Prowling Reporter
arrived in time for the starting
kick-off of the sensational co-ed
"foot-ballet” game. Captain Mary
of the Lemon-Yellow sent the ball
spinning in a beautiful long arc
7 yards into the hands of the Or- I
ange safety. Theoretically the game
was “touch tackle,” but the foot
ball ferns willingly let many of the
rules go by the board.
Rain Fails to Dampen Spirits
A heavy rain which soon
drenched “Gerlinger” field did not
dampen the spirits of the co-eds
in the least. The Amazon tilt was
filled with thrills, spills (and frills)
throughout. An outstanding fea
ture of the game was the amount
of yardage both teams lost from
overtime in the huddle. When the
girls started, talking together they
just couldn’t stop. Longest run of
the day was in the stocking of the
Lemon-Yellow right halfback.
"Cruncher” Jane Outstanding
The game ended with "Cruncher”

ing” left end for a 14 yard loss.
Both teams claimed a moral vic
tory and agreed to end the grudge
fight today at 4:00 on “Gerlinger”
field.
•Cruncher” Jane played a fine
game is being mentioned for Pa
cific Mae West or possibly All
Amazon honors. She is a transfer
from Vassar, where she captained
the boxing team. Captain Mary,
or Big Bertha as she is known to
her team mates, was the outstand
ing ground loser for the Lemon
Yellow. She hails from Mills Col
lege in Berkeley.
Statistics give a fine insight of
the game. The Oregon Amazons
averaged 6.34 yards on punts as
compared to the Beaverette’s 9
first downs gained from penalties,
Oregon gained —67 yards from
scrimmage and lost about the
same on passes.
