UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, EUGENE, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1935 FOLLOW THE FEATURES printed daily on the Emerald sports page. Meet the freshmen football players through “Introducing Frosh Pigskin Players.” Learn highlights in nation-wide ath letics from Bruce Currie’s “Spice.” Beavers Hold Light Scrimmage on Crutches and in Wheel-Chairs. Bear Stories Taboo in Minds of Oregon Gridiron Coaches and #*# Scribes. • By TOM McCALL Even a none too ardent follower of Oregon State football publicity would receive the impression that the "Four Horsemen” are staging a rodeo over on the Orange cam pus. Prominent in all headlines per taining to the welfare of the neighboring eleven, are such words and phrases as, "Orangemen Rest, Football Players Recuperate, So and So Is on the Shelf, Orange Injured Slowly Recorver,” all of which were extracted from but two papers which I happened to pick at random. Following this black dirge of the headlines were stories which would bring the brine thundering from the eyes of the strongest of men; stories that make one see giant athletes broil ing under heat lamps in a welter of bunting and tape, while outside a few of the lucky are running through light signal practice, sup ported by crutches or fast moving wheel chairs. Then comes the Sat urday of the game bringing with it not the slightest vestige of the mile long bandage of the previous week. * * * There is no doubt in my mind that the best of the “bear story” artists in the Northwest function at a no more disant point than the city of Corvallis. It would be interesting, to say the least, to watch the scribes there, slugging at the conrols of the Underwood, clad in their raiment of tear stained sack-cloth. Hardly less prolific in the dis pensation of near obituary trea tises, are the publicity men of the state college of Washington. There groans a ghastly group of grid iron gazers! Sob stuff is apparently as prev alent in the sporting set-up as your quarterbacks, forwards, and pitchers. Now the point that I have been trying to reach, via all the pre ceding blabber, is that the public ity man for the University of Ore gon athletic department doesn’t conjure up images of crutches and heat lamps for practically every report. The coaching staff doesn’t approve of “bear” stories, either. Consequently, when you read that an Oregon athlete is injured and out for the season, he is injured and out for the season. Still it’s not often that, you’ll have to wade through a list of casualties and long lines admitting that the home team is starting Saturday with a few professors, house moth ers, etc., to supplement the one player on the squad who is still “in toto.” Y’s to Conduct Relations Meet 100 Pacific Northwest Delegates to Be Here Approximately 100 delegates from universities and colleges of the Pacific Northwest are expect ed to attend the International Re lations conference scheduled for November 29 and 30 and Decem ber 1, here. Frank Evenson and Mary Nelson are co-chairmen for the affair and expect to have at least a sim ilar number of University of Ore gon representatives present. The conference, a yearly affair conducted by the regional council of the YMCA and the YWCA, will discuss the league of nations and the Ethiopian situation. Leaders of discussion will be Dr. Cornelius de Villiers, who is to be on the campus for a month starting No vember 17, and Allan A. Hunter, Congregational minister from Hol lywood, representing the Fellow ship of Reconciliation, a peace or ganization. Dr. Villiers will lead discussions on the general topic of the League •of Nations and the Ethiopian situ ation and Rev. Hunter will discuss ftvhat students can do for peace. Sessions of the conference will be held in the faculty room of the S. H. Friendly hall. Women dele gates to the gathering will stay at the women's halls of residence; no arrangement has as yet been made for men representatives. Maids Scarce . -—:-—— (Continued from Page One) | 3.

Both goalies made their share of spectacular saves but the Phi Delt goalie, Har ry McCall, really had to stop more direct shots. During the contest, the Phi Sigs never had to apply real pressure until the end of the game when the Phi Delts went be serk and tied the score at two-all Anderson, Devers Come Through Leading this furious attack wt.s the forward wall of the Phi Delt team composed of Anderson, J. Devers, and D. Devers. Just be fore the final gun. the score was tied by Joe Devers, who broke through the entire Phi Sig de fense with a deceptive flip shot, which just barely escaped Jones, the Phi Sig goalie. Hoffman Scores in Overtime During the first half Phi Sigma Kappa took a commanding lead when tw:> easy goals were scored by J. Halverson and V. Hoffman. After rhe two goals were scored the Phi Sigs settled down and played a defensive game wnicn failed to work. After the score was tied, the Phi SigS discarded this defense and switched to of fense. After about two minutes of over time B. Hoffman found himself in a good position to score and sent the winning counter crashing past McCall and into the net. Line-up: Phi Delts Phi Sigs Anderson .RF.

Attendance Cups Planned Houses Having Most Alums Present Win Two new Homecoming alumni attendance cups have been pur chased and engraved by alumni of ficials and are to be awarded this weekend to the fraternity and so rority having the largest number of former students present. It will be absolutely necessary, stated Robert Allen, alumni secre tary, yesterday, that to be counted in the judging, all alumni must register in Johnson hall sometime between 1 o’clock Friday and 5 o’clock Saturday. Get Together Planned Allen suggested that alumni would be given a good opportunity to register at the cafeteria get to gether slated for John Straub me morial hall Saturday noon. Circular letters have been sent to all living organizations by alum ni officials asking students to bend all efforts to see that every alum ni registers and attends the cafe teria instead of eating at the hous es at that time. Saturday night will be the “big night” for alumni at houses, he said. Faculty Invited Members of the faculty have been especially invited to attend the cafeteria, and whereas it is not a student-alumni affair, students will not be denied entrance, al though a minimum charge is to be made. Barn Dance Held At Gerlinger Hall “Swing left, your partner,” and many other such calls were heard last Friday night in the gymnas ium of Gerlinger hall, at the real old fashioned barn dance that was held there from 7:30 until 9:00. Townspeople dressed in cos tumes suitable to the occasion, stu dents, and faculty members all joined in the Paul Jones, square dance, and several good old fash ioned waltzes that were played by a typical barn dance orchestra which consisted of a piano and two fiddlers. Mr. Fishcel from Junction City was one of the old time fid dlers who helped make the evening complete. * SEND YOUR LAUNDRY HOME IN LAUNDRY BAGS Complete $1.50—Fillers 35c UNIVERSITY CO-OP m '^isisisiafsiHsisEJsisEisisiajsjaEfsiaaiaisisisjsraiaiais/BEEfsisiaiaiasisisMaiasjais!^ SPECIAL HAMBURGER SANDWICH ® Freshly Ground Beef—Special Quality Oversize Bun Lei luce—Mayouaise—Relish—Onions ?

Definitely Out Of Final Game Sprained Ankle Puts Frosli Star Out of Last Game With Orange Rooks Jimmy Nicholsen, star quarter back and most dangerous offensive threat of the frosh football team, is definitely through with football for 1935. A sprained ankle received in scrimmage two weks ago was twisted again in the Washington Babe game Saturday and has forced the ex-Salem flash out of action for the only remaining game on the frosh schedule with the OSC Rooks Friday night at Corvallis. Without the services of Nichol sen, Coach ‘‘Honest John" Warren is faced with the task of rebuild ing his entire backfield. There are several good men available for ser vice but no combination has yet be^n found that clicks in a manner well enough to avenge the first defeat by the Rooks. Bob Anet, the fighting fisher man, will handle the quarterback post but the two halfbacks and fullback will be a wide open battle between Dave Gammon, Tom Blackman, Bill Bogue, Tony Ver onda, Jean Laeau, and several others. The frosh line, although streng thened by the return of Henry Nil sen, star end, is still weak and will undoubtedly go through many changes before the Rook game. Coach Warern has admitted dis satisfaction with the work of the linemen and intends to try to im prove their work this week. Sev eral of the men were badly bruised in the Washington game but none are expected to be on the sidelines Saturday. Gross-Country Set for Nov. 26 This year's cross-country race wil take place Tuesday, November 26, according to an announcement received last night by the Emerald from the intramural office. Russ Cutler, director of this year's race, wishes to inform all contestants that the time is grow ing short in order to get nine practices in order to compete. There is still time, however, for all planning to run to get these prac tices. A big turkey will be awarded to the individual winning this year as will be the Bill Hayward trophy to the winning house.

Phi Sigs Beat Sigma Nu Team Dells Also Win in Volleyball Contests By means of a driving rally in the last two games, Phi Sigma Kappa won its opening “B” league volleyball game yesterday after noon from Sigma Nu. Sigma Nu won the first of the three games played by a 15-11 margin and ap peared to be well on the way to taking the series two straight when the Phi Sigs began their sen sational rally. They finally won the second tilt 15-13 and went ojq to take the deciding game easily 16-6. Hitchcock and Hesla looked especially good for the Phi Sigs, while Olson and Kay Hockette sparked the Sigma Nu offense. The Delts had little trouble tak ing Delta Upsilon 15-9 and 15-10. The Delts put a veteran team on the floor and exhibited smooth team work. Rice and Silven kept the D.U.’s going. Swanson, Shaw and Blais played consistent ball for the winners. Good team work featured the Kappa Sigs’ sweeping victory over Omega hall 15-1 and 15-5. Bob Thomas helped speed up the games for the Kappa Sigs. Zeta hall and S.A.E. were each presented with a win by forfeiture. Sigma Alpha Mu and Pi Kappa Alpha were the teams failing Lo show up. The other game scheduled be tween Gamma hall and La Casa Filipina was declared no contest as neither squad appeared. The tilt cannot be played later, accord ing to intramural directors.

Shades of the Past Recalled by Ducks In 36th Civil War’ Gents From Corvallis To Face Webfoots In Annual Classic Next Saturday By PAT FRIZELL A gridiron civil war that began in the days when grandpa courted grandma down by the old mill stream and bicycles were built for two will be fought anew, for a 36th time, when Oregon’s Webfoots and Oregon State’s Beavers battle on Hayward field Saturday. The shining new walls of Villard hall thrilled the gay young blades and wasp-waisted maidens on that long ago day in 1894 when first Oregon's football warriors clashed with the Aggies. The score was 18 to 0 for the mustachioed young farmers from Corvallis, but since that historic tussle Oregon has recorded 22 tri umphs to 9 for Oregon State. On seven occasions the teams have ended their annual struggle in a deadlock. Oregon Victor for Three Years . ..During the past decade, however, rivalry between the two schools has been almost even, though for the most ..recent three ..seasons, since 1931, the Webfoots have emerged victorious. Last year it was 9 to 6, the year before 13 to 3, and in 1932 the Ducks were on the happy end of a 12 to 6 count. The 1931 engagement was a scoreless tie. In the preceding year, 1930, the Beavers recorded their final triumph, 15 to 0, on Bell field'. Not since 1927 has Oregon State drubbed the Webfoots here. Saturday’s game, feature of Homecoming, most joyous event of the year for thousands of old grads, will be the first Oregon Oregon State contest staged on Hayward field’s storied sod since 1931, year of the double goose egg. For two autumns the state’s two major institutions of higher learn ing have grappled on the gridiron of Multnomah stadium in Portland, and in 1932 the yearly fracas took place in Corvallis. Teams Appear Even Forgetting ancient history in the swirl of today’s enthusiasm, a glimpse at season’s records and performances indicates that Sat urday’s game is almost a perfect toss-up. Oregon has more power, more consistency, more experience; Oregon State more speed, more brilliance, more occuracy through the air lanes. With Lon Stiner and his Bea vers will come sophomore Joe Gray, famous “jumping Joe” of Roosevelt high, one of the out standing halfbacks in the West. GrAy's passing proclivity, coupled with the shifty running of another sophomore half, Bob Mountain, has enabled the Staters to score at least one touchdown against all of the six teams they have faced this fall. Completing the battering Beaver backfield are Wayne (Happy) Val ley at fullback and Jack Woerner at quart?-. To nullify the touted prowess of this formidible behind the-line quartet, Prink Callison has mighty Frank Michek, Bud Goodin, Bob Braddock, and Johnny Reisch man. Injured Beavers Recover Reports from Benton county are to the effect that the long list of Beaver injuries is rapidly dwind ling and that all the Orangemen will be fit for action against their arch rivals. Oregon State won a hard-fought tilt from Portland University Saturday, 19 to 2. Prink Callison is drilling the Webfoots behind locked stadium gates this week. For the first time this season everybody is barred save players, coaches, trainers and student managers. Though the Ducks' practice pro gram for the week is known to consist of work on fundamentals —blocking, tackling, signal drill, ets.—Callison is taking no chances on exhibiting anything before the prying eyes of Oregon State scouts. The Webfoots will run through every offensive play on their books during the week, including power plays especially designed for the Beavers. Rhode Island once had laws pro viding penalties for refusal to ac cept public office on election.
