Fifty-five Intra-Mural Harristers To Vie For Cup This Afternoon Sport WOLVES BAY DISAPPROVAL AT SELECTION OF CARDS AS ROSE BOWL PERFORMERS WASHINGTON MILITIAMEN PROTECT HUSKY UPRIGHTS FROM DISAPPOINTED MOB ❖ Quacks By TOM McOALL Three consecutive years in the Rose Bowl seems to be too much of a good thing for any football team. That assertion is attested to by the general wail that rose from the throats of coast football followers upon the selection of the Cardinals from Leland Stanford university to represent the western end of the United States in the New Year’s day classic. With Stanford in the Bowl it will take a pretty flashy team from the Bast to raise a full house in Pasedena. We think that Stanford has already lowered the standing of the conference through their last two losses in the Bowl, in 1934 and 1933. Columbia s feeble eleven drove out a 7-0 victory last year and this year Alabama downed the Indians by a 16 point margin. Performances like those won't bring out many of the local gentry, although they would be cal culated to warm the hearts of the Eastern fans. It’s a long way from either New York or Alabama to Pasedena and it would require lots of enthusiasm and mazumiasm to make the trip. If the thing is going to be a financial success, wouldn’t it be more feasible to accommodate the largest number of available wallets? * * * Stanford was a better team than California, in every department, except popularity, in last Saturday’s “big game.” The Golden Bears would probably give the Pase dena turnstiles a few more shudders than would the Indians. They might afford better competition than Stanford, who seems to tic up before the onslaughts of the Eastern in vaders. The chance of seeing the mincing, magical Mustangs from the plains of the Lone Star state, would bring the customers on the run. But their possibilities for playing in the Bowl of Roses contest were precluded by the stupid tradition of only allowing a Pacific, Coast conference team to play there. Ardent backers of coast teams forgot their prejudices and rocked in wholesale delight as the confer ence’s favorite “babies,” the Uclans, were plundered by a 21 point margin by these same Mustangs a couple of week ends ago in Los Angeles. Just put any old team up against Southern Methodist, and the crowds will get double their money’s worth in merely watching the fancy, deceptive play of the southerners. ^ Howard Harding Jones and his Southern Californians deserve a tip of the hat for the manner in which they finished up a season which started off horribly. Jones and his players apparently decided, after the first few games, that El Trojan would never run up many touchdowns if they stuck to the kind of plays and forma tions that they had been using. It was near to mid season before that conclusion was reached, but captain and crew changed their whole offensive and then went out and thrashed Washington State and threw a pretty scare into Notre Dame. The Trojans discarded their more sedate type of play by disposing of the shift and installing a wide open, devil may-care ball advancing system. Conspicuous by its absence from the souvenirs that are usually brought back from the battle field by the exponents of the winning team, was any speck, spar, or segment of a Washington goal post. Reason: A well formed, club laden detachment of the' Washington militia martialled itself before each goal post almost before the final gun had started squeaking. # • » Astute radio fans, owning two or more radios, would have noticed the following peculiarity, last Saturday, had they been tuned in on the VVashington-Oregon, Stanford California games, simultaneously. The Webfoots scored their first touchdown the same minute that Stanford scored theirs, and the Huskies rolled over the Oregon goal line at exactly the same time of day that Stanford completed her second successful thrust for points. * » « How did we figure the score of the Duek-llusky tilt? That is the constant query of many a, lesser prognosticator. Well, lads, it was this way. The two teams, counting this year's game, have met 30 times. Four of the contests ended in ties. Oregon had won 13 and Washington 12. up ’til hist Saturday. Anticipating a win for the Webfoots, which would have made the series count 14-12, we divided those digits, separately, by two. The answer: Oregon 7, Wash ington 6. Elective Drill (Continued from Page One) The Nye-Kvale bill, if passed, would provide that no ROTC unit shall be established or maintained at any school or college “until such institution shall have satis fied the Secretary of War that en rollment in such unit (except in the case of essentially milk . j schools) is elective and not com pulsory.” Prizes will be awarded within six weeks after the close of the contest by the following- commit tee of judges: Mr. Bruce Bliven, Mrs. Dorothy Canfield Fisher, Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick, Sen ator Lynn J. Frazier (tentative), Congressman Knute Hill, Miss Helen Seabury, and Miss Mary ' Seabury.

The Oregon squad unleashed a terrific power drive early in the game that resulted in a touch down for the Ducks. Pepper en t tered the game, and while thou sands of rabid fans held their ( breaths, calmly kicked the extra . point. Pepper was apparently the least excited person on the field, but nevertheless that kick was Pep per’s biggest thrill in football. That conversion kick was Ore gon's victory margin over Wash ington, and the grim battle that the Ducks put up to hold that lead will never be forgotten. Pepper had never kicked a con version point until the Idaho game this year. Since then he has proved very effective in kicking the extra points. Pepper is a transfer from Fullerton J. C. ATO Defeats SAE Squad Betas Lose to Delts In Volleyball Tilt ; lit T !H In the only “A” league volleyball ..I game last night ATO convincingly . maintained its perfect average by taking two games from Sigma Al • pha Epsilon, 15-7 and 15-1. During the first contest SAE made a hard effort to emerge victorious but • some fancy passing and spiking ! by Avison and Stroble enabled the • ATO team to stay out in front. . The second game was a walkaway i with SAE able to score only one i point. i Betas Lose Again Beta Theta Pi lost its second • contest of the current intramural . season when its "B” team again 1 met defeat. This time it was at the • hands of the flashy Delta Tan Delta team, which was- greatly aided by having Jimmie Blais and , Reed Swenson in the line-up.' Scores were 15—11 and 15-3. For the Betas D. Smith and B. Bur nett looked impressive Kappa Sigs Crack Yeomen Sextet Kappa Sigma went to town last night by winning a very easy two games from a weak Yeomen team. The Yeomen presented very little offensive strength except in the second game. The big guns of the Kappa Sig team were D. McKay and A. Carter, while J. Smith and I. Buchwach performed well for the Yeomen. SAE Walks on Omega In a wild free-for-all game Sig ma Alpha Epsilon “B” team came out on the lucky end of the score, but it was not until Omega hall had thrown all the scares anyone would care to receive in one eve ning at the SAE team. So un orthodox was the passing of this game that half the time the play took place out-of-bounds. Scores of the two games were 15-4 and 15-10. Two contests were not played, with Sigma Alpha Mu and Phi Sigma Kappa winning by forfeit. Miss Klekar in California Kamilla Klekar is treasurer of the San Francisco chapter of Phi Beta.

Cloran Confined To Hospital Must Remain for Remainder of Term Dr. Timothy Cloran, professor of Romance languages, was believed to have missed his first class Mon day since he came to the Univer sity. Dr. J. R. Jewell, dean of the school of education, said today on learning that Prof. Cloran was confined to the Pacific hospital. Prof. Cloran was reported to be feeling ill Monday morning and tried to attend his classes but be came so weak that he was taken to the Pacific hospital with orders to stay there and relax. During his absence provisions have been made for his classes to continue as usual. Dr. Cloran will make out examinations from time to time from his bed at the hospi tal. He will hot attend classes through the rest of this term but hopes to begin at the beginning of the winter session. Word has been sent to Mrs. Clo ran, who is visiting a sister in St. Louis, Missouri. She is expect ed to return sometime this week. Dunn Will Honor Horace in Speech Under the auspices of the Amer ican Classical league, the 2000th birthday anniversary of Horace, famous Latin poet, will be cele brated in Portland in the early part of December. Frederic S. Dunn, head of the Latin depart ment has been chosen the impor tant speaker of the occasion. The program is directly under the joint sponsorship of the Port land library and the University of Oregon extension division. Donnell and Bracher Sub For Michek Ducks Skip Through Light Practice Drill; First-Stringers Rest While Reserves Toil With more than ten days re maining' before their final game of the year against St. Mary’s, Ore gon's Webfoot football players en joyed another comparative rest yesterday. The victorious first stringers were completely spared from prac tice duty for a second consecutive day, while the second and third elevens were sent through a short and not too bruising scrimmage. One big problem confronts Prink Callison-- that of finding a capa ble fullback understudy to Jerry Donnell. With Frank Michek def initely out of action for the re mainder of the season, Donnell, whose performance in the Wash ington battle was little short of sensational, is conceded the num ber one fullback berth. He and Michek, however, were the only i fullbacks who made the Seattle trip. Bracher Is Logical Man Chuck Bracher, 190-pound, G foot, 3-inch sophomore from Pen dleton, is the logical reserve for Donnell, but Dick Bishop, second string quarterback, is also being given a chance. Bracher is considered an out standing defensive back, but of fensively he cannoL be compared to Donnell. In last night’s scrim mage session he carried the ball continuously. Definitely it is the plan of Callison and his assistants to use the lanky Eastern Oregon ion in the second string post. Donnell’s demonstration of ball packing ability in the Washington game, coupled with his previously proved punting prowess, keeps the Webfoots fairly well fortifed at Michek’s old spot. Donnell, who weghs 195 pounds and measures 5 feet, 11 inches, is a transfer from Citrus Junior College. Light Practice All Week Practice work for the Ducks will be light all this week, with heavy work scheduled for next week. While Callison's charges are resting Saturday, St. Mary’s will be locking horns with Washing ton State’s tenacious Cougars in Kezar stadium. Only twice in seven years have the Webfoots been able to drop the Moraga Marauders in the gover nor’s cup series. That was in 1933, year of Oregon's conference co championship.
