With Jimmy Grier
At Biltmore Bowl
Quacks
Remember how the crowds
roared for Ray Lopez as he raced
for tremendous gains through the
Uclans in the closing quarter of
the game in Los Angeles last Sat
urday. He had returned home to
give the locals an orb full of just
how to advance the ball through a
seemingly impregnible enemy for
ward wall. Chuck Chesire was the
only man on the field to exceed
Lopez in popularity with the per
sons that stare and cheer. Lopez
made up for that delinquency of
applause at the Biltmore Bowl a
few hours later.
Then it was that the bouncing
Basque wended his way through
the huge crowd dancing there and
slid up to the mike. Behind him
were over a dozen of the best
tooters and thumpers that Jimmy
Grier has ever assembled. They
were “on" that night, and as they
picked their way through the
opening bars of "The Object of My
Affection,” the vinegar tenor
flexed his pipes, and got in with
the swing of the music. As his
first high note knifed the ether.
the whirling groups stopped with
pleasurable surprise. They re
mained motionless and listening
until the final strain hung tremb
ling and faded. Then ensued a five
minute wave of terrific applause.
That's really something for “Lope"
to chortle over for he took Pink
Tomlin’s own song, and his own
band, and received an ovation that
would have made the author crim
son with pride.
Another Oregon football player
who showed plenty of stuff both
on the football field and at the
Biltmore was Joe Houston, reserve
guard. Houston, a la Fred Astaire,
whipped out a soft shoe dance that
made the cash customers pale with
pure awe and gratitude. Sterling
Boyd, senior football manager,
augmented Grier and the Oregon
lads work by bellowing a few
words over the air. It was Boyd’s
first public appearance, but the
lad was fluent and voluble to say
the least, even though he sounded,
at times, as if he had half de
voured a feather mattress.
Introducing—
Frosh
Pigskin Players
(The following are the first
in a series of minute biog
raphies of freshman football
players.)
NELLO GIOVANINI
. . . comes from Klamath Falls
where he starerd in football and
basketball for four years. Nello is
19 years old, stands six feet tall
and weighs 196 pounds. He was
selected as “all southern Oregon”
tackle last year but is being used
as a guard by Coach Warren.
Giovanini was presented with the
Mahoney medal, donated by Mayor
Willis Mahoney, for being the most
valuable man to his team last
season.
1SOB ANET
... a product of Astoria high
where he played three year’s of
football and basketball. Bob is 18
years old, stands five feet, nine
inches tall and tips the scales at j
165 pounds. He shone as a left
halfback while at Astoria but has
been playing quarterback here at
Oregon. Was selected “all-state”
guard in basketball in 1934 and
repeated in 1935. Was named most
outstanding man on the floor at
the 1934 tourney.

. . . CHARLES “WOODY” JOSLIN
has the honor of being the last of
the 11 original “iron men” on this
year’s Oregon State varsity foot
ball squad ... In spite of the fact
that the University of Chicago foot
ball team has been defeated rather
regularly for several years, they
have one of the greatest players of
all time on their team. He is JAY
BERW’ANGEPk, and he is the an
swer to a coach’s dream. He is 6
feet tall, weighs 200 pounds and is
a 10-second man, Berwanger also
.pas been a member of most All
American teams for two years . . .
NOTRE DAME’S nickname, Fight
ing Irish, may be a reality this sea
son for the first time in years. Of
the 110 varsity candidates, 55 have
Irish blood . . . BEATTIE FEATH
ERS, Tennessee’s All-American,
who is now playing pro football
with the Bears, caused a furor in
the dressing room when he came in
with painted toe nails. Feathers
claimed that he was framed while
sleeping . . . STANFORD university
can’t takei “no” for an answer, so
they will play Columbia university
in 1936 . . . FRANK ALUSTIZA,
Stanford’s injured backfield star, is
tie proud possessor of a gold watch
given him by his teammates . . .
The University of Washington sup
porters think very highly of their
star fullback, ED NOWOGROSKI.
They say that he features Sally
Rand off-tackle smashes—plenty
of power and no deception. His
name sounds plenty formidable
anyway . . . Here’s one to stun you:
RED GANN, Chatanooga pro, shot
18 pars in a row twice, but lost, both
times.
Hard-Time Party

Two hard-fought battles, both
taken by the Phi Delts over Delta
Tau Delta by 15-12 scores, featured
the second day's “A” league volley

Delts.
Delta Epsilon Applies Heat
Delta Upsilon showed unexpect

Fiji outfit two straight games 15-13
and' 15-10. Newlands. Dean and Mc
Inturf turned in a good game for
the victors, while Kriesien and
Aughinbaugh were the bright stars
in the Fiji defense.
Phi Sigma Kappa was defeated
by a peppery Sigma Chi bunch two
straight 15-7 games. Lewis and
Vail furnished the punch for the
winners.
Theta Chi Walks on S.A.E.
A fighting Theta Chi team
smashed S.A.E. hopes by winning
two contests 15-7 and 15-10. In
winning its two games Theta Chi
furnished spectators with a view of
good teamwork.
A veteran band of Sigma hall
players rolled up wins over Zeta

put up a game battle, nearly over

Ducks Work
Hard Despite
Icy Weather
Athletes Scrimmage
On Slushy Gridiron;
Webfoots to Rest as
Beavers Play Pilots
The hills were white, the sky was
dark, and tiny flakes of snow drift
ed monotonously down on historic
Hayward field.
The weatherman was playing
Hallowe'en pranks on an unsuspect
ing Willamette valley populace, but
lie found Oregon's Webfoot football
team no easy mark.
Though the thermometer hovered
around the freezing point and the
general panorama of the country
side was that of a New England
Christmas, the Ducks were out in
full force yesterday afternoon for
a heavy drill in the slush and mud
of the stadium enclosure.
Snow Tonic to Ducks
Just a tonic for the husky young
Webfoots was the wintry October
atmosphere, apparently, for the
lads snapped through a grueling'
workout in the slime as if it were a t
signal drill on a sunny Indian sum
mer day. /
With the Oregon State "game
drawing nearer, Prink Callison
must necessarily hand out plenty ' >f
scrimmage. Over the weeken i,
when no game is scheduled, a re't
will no doubt be in order, but for
the present hard work is the bill of
fare.
No inkling- as to any possible
changes in Callison’s first string are
as yet forthcoming, but several may
occur before the Homecoming bat
tle with the bruising Beavers.
Weather May Govern Starters
Starting choices against the Stat
ers may be governed partially by
the weather. For instance, if Hay
ward field is in a condition similar
to the shape it was in today, Bob
Braddock will probably retain his
old post at right half. If the grid
iron is dry, Ray Lopez is apt to open
the fray.
BucI Goodin is still the first
stringer at left half, with Dale Las
selle his understudy. Jerry Donnell,
a back who has been relegated to
the bench in previous contests has
been receiving a lot of attention in
practice this week and is likely to
get a crack at the Staters.
The regular linemen, Budd Jones
and Stan Riordan at ends, Del
Bjork and Ken Skinner at the tac
kles, Ross Carter and Tony Amato
at guards, and the two centers, Ed
Farrar and Vernon Moore, are
showing well in practice and are
booked at this early date to open
against the Beavers.
Eyes of Oregon fans will be cast
toward the Oregon State campus
this weekend, where Portland uni
versity’s rising gridders test the
Webfoots’ “Civil war" enemies on
Saturday.

Ray Lopez’
BIG MOMENT
In Football
As Told to Bruce Currie
Ray Lopez, new sensation of the
Oregon grid machine, received his
biggest thrill, while playing for
Santa Monica high school.
Ray was playing the halfback po
sition in a game against Rendondo
high. The game had' been a bitter
struggle, with the Santa Monica
boys on the short end of a 7-6 score.
The Santa Monica eleven had pos
session of the ball deep in their own
territory, with only a short time
left to play. Dale Kasl, star back
for Santa Monica, and who is now
at Stanfoi'd, received the ball from
center and faded back to pass. Lo
pez and his teammates blocked out
all of the opposition, and Kasl got
off a nice pass that was completed.
A Santa Monica man took the pass
and dashed' 70 yards for a touch
down. This score enabled Santa
Monica to win 1^ to 7.
“Another incident that made my
heart beat faster,” said the crooning
Californian, “occurred in a game in
1931 between Santa Monica and In
glewood high for the Bay league
championship.”
In this game Ray carried the ball
eight successive times behind good
interference for a total of 48 yards.
The last time Ray managed to put
the ball over the line for a touch
down. The score at the end of the
game was 12 to 7 for Santa Monica.
Writer’s note: “Lope” didn’t tell
us this, but we can hardly close
without saying that the “tricky
tenor” must have felt “in the pink"
after playing one of the best games
of his colorful career in his back
yard against the UCLA Bruins
what with a goodly number of his
fans in previous years watching the
former Glendale Jaysee run wild
against the Westwood aggregation
to carry the ball close to 200 yards
in 18 tries.

Contest This Year
After playing through three
scoreless overtime periods, Phi Del
ta Theta, by sheer courage and
stamina, smashed its way into the
semi-finals by convincingly trim
ming Alpha Tau Omega in water
polo last niglii. by a 4-0 score.
Two of the greatest exhibitions
of goal-tending ever seen in the
intramurals was staged in this
game with McCall, Phi Delt, win
ning out. Time and time again, Ben
Grout and McCall were called upon
to stop some sensational shots. Of
the two players, Grout's goal-guard
ing was more spectacular because
his teammates were usually down
at the other end of the tank trying
hard to score. When Groat would
stop a shot he would do it by him
self.
McCall was also called upon to
stop numerous hard throws but his
teammates combined to help him.
(lamp Is Hough Affair
Plenty of penalties were dished
out by Referee Weitz because- of
many impromptu duckings and at
one stage of the game half of the
Phi Delts were calmly sitting on
the sides of the tank watching their
surviving teammates holding the
fighting ATO outfit from scoring.
Anderson and Gale were the oth
er individual stars for the Phi Delts
while Thompson and Stroble swam
well for ATO.
Belas Swamp Sigma Plii 'Epsilon
If Sigma Phi Epsilon had watched
Jim Hurd last night, instead of his
teammates, they might have had
