QUILLE EXPECTED The annual "Big Games” of the northwest and of our state down toward the shores of old Mexico, turned out to be just that—the BIG GAMES. In the northwestern fracas the Washington State Cou gar fought, held, and equalled the mighty Husky of Washington Uni versity last Saturday, in what proved to be one of the closest and hardest fought battles on the Paci fic coast this season. As you have all heard or read, the historic battle ended the same as it started, 0 to 0. So much for the Cougar and the Husky, who will have to try and conquer, or become conquered next season . . . The other "Big Game” on the Pacific coast was the Ind ian-Bear battle, played likewise last Saturday in the Bear's home cave. The Indian, very hungry for some bear meat, risked the chances and came out scratched up a bit, but not as hungry as when he en tered. This was a battle that will long be remembered in the annals of fqotballdom. The Indian’s ar rows have been hitting their target all season, but found the burly Bear a bit hard to penetrate. This battle too, will be renewed again next year, and chances are that the Indian won't win by the 9 to 7 count. BUTCHER BOY! It's all-esection and all-Ameri can time! One of the favored lists, naming sixteen outstanding line 2 a n d i dates for the all-American team, includes none other than our own co-cap tain, Butch “But cher” Morse, who has been knifing his way consis t e n 11 y through the opposing Butch Morse 3ines of the Paci' fic coast confer ence. The “Butcher” has earned this recognition and we feel that an outstanding type of play in the St. Mary’s and Louisana State games coming up will insure him place. It is also noteworthy to mention that “Monk” Moscrip, Stanford's stellar end, was not in cluded in the list. The “Monk” is worthy of any all-American team, and without him is lacking to some degree. Wouldn’t the east be burned up if Morse and Moscrip were to get the selection? WHO? Just about this time of year every football-minded person turns his attention to the outstanding' classic of the year, which is to be played this time between Stanford and ( ?), at the Rose Bowl in Pasa dena New Year’s day. Stanford was definitely selected following her victory over the California Bear last Saturday. The “Question Mark" team has not as yet been banded an invite to dine with the Iqdians in the Bowl of Roses. There are several teams that are upon the wall ready to be shot off, but who will the Indian pick on? Will it be Minnesota who has won five and lost none? Tulane who has won seven and lost none ? Ala bama who has won six and has no defeats to mar her record? Temple who has a perfect slate with seven wins? Princeton, Pittsburg, Co lumbia, Navy and Colgate who have each but one defeat to their credit, and are playing heavy schedules ? Who will it be ? We all know that the Big-Ten would never submit to allowing the Minnesota Gophers to stray from their backyard; in fact they have declined the invitation extended to them. If Alabama should take Van derbilt under its wing they are be lieved to get the nod. . . . Whay pick on the Southern teams? Why not give ,a return game with Co lumbia, then watch Stanford re gain their ground with the Lions? The Lions would be capable of just as good, or perhaps a better game than the Alabama team. . . . ^DONALD 12:45 CONTINUOUS 11:45 Moraga Marauders and Webfoots Attempting to win their second game in seven starts the Webfoot eleven will be entertained by the Galloping Gaels from St. Mary's on Thanksgiving day in the San Francisco town. The “Governor’s Trophy” will be presented, and nothing would please the Duck gridders more than to carry it back to Eugene, and to place an other win in the annals of the Gael-Webfoot encounters. The “Madiganmen” are on top in the betting due to their defeating the Rams of Fordham, the Cou gars of Washington State, the Bears of California, and the Broncs from Santa Clara. Their losses are two in number and came very un expectedly from Nevada and U. C. L. A. They have been playing “spurt” football, taking the tough ones and letting the comparatively weaker teams sneak up and catch them napping, but it is very rea sonable to believe that the Saints are not taking Oregon too lightly, remembering a 13-7 victory of Oregon last year, when it was “in the bag” for the Californians. Concerning Oregon Oregon has taken two raps from the Washington University Hus kies, and the Trojans from U.S.C.; while the Ducks have conquered the Oregon State Beavers, the Bruins of U. C.- L. A., the Bulldogs of Gonzaga, University of Idaho Vandals, the University of Utah, and the Montana University Griz zlies. The Gael-Duck aggregations first met in 1929 when the Saints won handily by a 31 to 6 count; in 1930 Johnny Kitzmiller made the afternoon more interesting with his breath-taking performances, but was nosed out by a 7 to 6 score; in 1931, the Gaels again showed their power, and raced through a 16 to 0 count; Angel Brovelli took the spotlight in 1932, scoring a 7 to 0 Gael victory, the fourth in success, but, in 1933, the tide of defeat caught up with the Gaels and due to the headwork of Leighton Gee, the Webfooters en tering the game as underdogs shot through to a neat and initial vic tory by the margin of 13 to 7. Last season the Callisonmen were co conference champions, yet they en tered the under-dog, thus this year with not quite so an impressive record, they again enter the tilt with all fractions lined up against them. Another team that is not to be overlooked, Colgate, who has earned ‘for themselves the name of the most colorful team in the east. Their record shows only one de feat, a close one at the hands of a Big-Ten squad. Their six wins and one defeat looks the best in this humble opinion. . . Colgate earned an invitation once before and didn’t get the break due them. Stanford could right a wrong if they so de sired. Remember: Colgate unbeat en, untied, unscored upon, and un invited to the Rose Bowl? Well, we would like to see the color that would be furnished by Colgate, or the spirit that would be afforded by a return game with Columbia. A NEW TRAIN TO PORTLAND 5p. M.

BEST OF AFTERNOON The opening tilt yesterday after noon featured the hoopsters from Sigma hall mixing it up with the Delta Tau Delta aggregation. The boys of the hall started off with a bang and at half time had regis tered nine points to none for the boys on top of University avenue. During the half-time period the fraternity boys became organized and opened with an assult that net ted fifteen points, while the Sigma lads were registernig eight digits. The eight points registered in the last half were sufficient to nose out the Delta Tau Delta basket eers by the narow margin of two points, the game ended with Sigma hall out in front by a 17 to 15 score. The scoring was featured by Orville Wilson of Sigma hall who tallied three field baskets and one free throw for a total of seven points. “Rick” Hilles, playing a bang-up game of guard for Delta Tau Delta, sneaked up sufficiently to register three field baskets for a total of six counters. Other scor ing was “Duke” Lees, three points. Jim Blais, four points, and Don Carmicharl, two points for the Del ta Tau Delta house. Sigma hall's additional scoring was registered by Roland Blantz, four points, Ben Bowman, one point, Norman Win slow', two points, and H. Dietrick, three points. This game leaves the Sigma hall with two victories and one defeat; while Delta Tau Delta lost its firs! game after wanning the first two. MOSTLY YEOMEN In the second game of the after noon the Yeomen “B's” handily jumped all over the boys from Omega hall. The Yeomen regis tered consistently throughout the four periods to amass twenty-nine points to two for the hapless squad TWO WORDS “TYPE WRITER” and “CO-OP” “ CO - OP ” CAMPUS DISTRIBUTORS The Mechanism of Offence 'Cruncher” Michek “Flit” Vail Vliet “Terj” Terjeson “Bobby” Parke H from Omega hall. Bardell Purcell was the master of ceremonies, stealing the whole show from the entire t wo teams. Purcell regis tered four field baskets and two free throws for a total of ten dig its. The Omega score came in the very closing seconds of play by B. Holden from quite a distance. Other Yeomen scorers were: Earl Bucknum, five points; Lincoln Diess, four points; two points were Three Forthcoming Melees Turkey day football offers a very inviting dish to those who en joy the great American pastime of football. Up in the Montana country will be seen the University trying to down a tough team in the form of Gonzaga university, which hails from Spokane, Washington, features the dashes of “Hiking Ike” Peterson. The University of Idaho is on the move and will match mettle with Creighton uni versity at Omaha, Nebraska, where the prowess of "Bullet” Bob Mc Cue will no doubt thrill the mid westerners. In Los Angeles a battle of the city will ensue with the Bruins of U.C.L.A. entangling with the Lions of Loyala. The Lions are stronger and flashier than recognized here in the northwest. The Lions will take the field with an even chance of subduing the Bruin who prob ably feels a bit blowed-up follow ing his expressive defeat of the. haples Oregon State Beavers last Saturday. registered by each of the follow ing: A. Mathews, H. Parks, C. Avers, Frank Trout, and Charles Grimes. The game was, what the score indicates, very lop-sided, but very amusing to the handful of spectators. This victory left the Yeomen with a clean slate of no defeats; while Omega hall has yet to boast of a victory. SIGMA NU STRONG The third and final game of the afternoon found the gang from Sigma Nu tangling with the Theta Chi aggregation from over on nineteenth street. Theta Chi might just as well have not shown up be-! cause they never found the hoop for a field goal during the entire encounter. R. Luddington and Paulen Kaseberg registered a free throw apiece for Theta Chi’s scor ing effort. The offensive punch of the Sigma Nu’s was lead by E. Lofstedt and R. Hocket with a field goal and a free throw totaling three points apiece. D. Connaway and L. Fornas scored one field goal apiece. Theta Chi to date has reg istered one win and met defeat for the first time yesterday afternoon. Sigma Nu lost their first encount er and last night staged a come back that pointed to a new deter mination. A Saga Concerning Wild Ducks One rainy night about two weeks ago our battling Webfeet gridmen sat down to a duck dinner—at their evening repast at training ta ble. Page Wimpy! The mallards, brant, geese, and barnyard fowl that made up the menu had been provided by Co-captain Bobby Parke and Beldon Babb,—down town hardware tycoon, who braved the early morning mists to provide the larder. For a time all was silent, except for the noise of 30 massive jaws masticating tender duck. Sudden ly the noisy silence was broken by the shout, “Hey, Parke, where are the shot?” It seems that ducks are supposed to contain little lead pellets as a proof that they have actually been shot on the wing.. Parke's reply, “Neyh, neyh, neyh— I shot 'em all in the head, so there aren't any shot in the body, ahem.” Now, two weeks later, the Em erald’s secret operative has dis covered the real facts behind the famous duck dinner! Parke could n't tell the difference between tame DECOYS! and the real wild ducks! The suspicions of the can ny football players who couldn't find any lead pellets have been justified! Decoys!!! “Smoky Joe’s” Birds Here is the true story of how "Smoky Joe” got the birds for the dinner. After getting up at 4:30 a. m. and driving some 30 miles to a private duck lake, Parke hid himself in a blind hidden in some low bushes. After shooting three boxes of shells at some WOODEN decoys that he mistook for the real live birds, the wily quarter back turned his attentions on some quackers which came swimming by some ten yards away. ‘Shoo,” said Bobby, “fly, you birds.” But the birds couldn’t fly—because their wings had been clipped to prevent flight—and were in the pond for the sole purpose of luring their wild brethren from the skies. WHAM went Bobby’s trusty auto matic, and three mallards bit the mud. Seeing that even his shoot ing couldn’t stir the LAZY things into flight, arke ran down upon the helpless webfoots and WRUNG their necks with his OWN BARE hands! The big GOOSE that he shot turned out to be a tame gan der belonging to one of the local 1 farmers. A Farewell to Gridiron Wars Wearing the Yellow and the Green for the last time on the Pacific coast in the Gael-Duck tilt will be ten mighty men of Oregon. At the head of the list is co-captaiu Raymond "Butcher” Morse, who is almost certain for a berth on the all-Pacific coast team, with possi bilities of placing on the all-Ameri can team. Co-captain Bobby Parke, who hasn’t fared so well this sea son due to injuries will be in shape and give the Baydwellers an. eye full of punting. In the back-field Prink Callison will undoubtedy elect to start the slippery senior "Flit" Maury Van Vliet, who is the sixth highest scorer in the Pacific coast confer ence. Ralph I'erjeson, erstwhile quarterback and chief blocker for the flying Ducks, wil lead the Webfooters for the last time in coast competition. “Pep" Peplen jack is the other senior back-field man that will most likely see ac tion for the last time in the west. The linemen who will be in there laboring all the while taking their punishment that is unrealized by* the majority of the fans will in clude Alex Eagle, Gardner Frye, Con Fury, and Rosy Gagnon. These senior linemen have done them selves proud and Prink is relying heavily on their work to dispell any rushes of offense by the Gaels, as well as providing the key to tha success of the Duck offense. Hockey Contests of Women Members of' the frosh women’s hockey team swam to a convinc ing 2 to 0 win over a sophomore junior aggregation on Gerlinger field yesterday afternoon. The ex hibition was necessarily of an ex tremely sloppy order due to tha condition of the field. Another of the series of wo men’s intramural contests will be staged tomorrow afternoon at 4 p. m. Teams representing the frosh and a combination junior senior outfit will be the contest ants. Send the Emerald to your friends. Subscription rates $2.50 a year.
