Beta, ATO, Phi Psi, and Sigma Hall Teams Score Victories THE Firing Line By PAT FRIZZELL You can't beat those wolves. At least college football coaches can't. Did you know that only a dozen have been tutoring gridiron hope fuls at the same institution for a period of ten years or longer ? The alumni, who are the wolves, usual ly nab their scalps after a few seasons. Amos Alonzo Stagg, now at Col lege of the Pacific, coached at the University of Chicago for 40 years, and that makes him the champion wolf-beater of all time. The im mortal Walter Camp, who used to pick THE all-American, mentored at Yale for 30 or 35 years, but that was in a day, or, more specifically, in several days, when conditions were a bit different than now. Dan McGugin, is third in line. But those fellows have moved on. Who is long-tenure champ to day? It’s Harry Hughes, who has been at Colorado State college for 26 long years. Then there is Bob Zupke. He’s on his 24th year at the University of Illinois. Lowell Romeny at Utah State is in his 18th successive coaching year there, * * * The Rocky Mountain and Pacific coast sectors seem to have a mon opoly on long-time coaches. In addition to Hughes and Romeny, the Rockies have Mr. Ike Arm strong, the very capable University of Utah head man, who has been turning out Ute elevens for more than a decade. Our own Pacific coast? Wei), there’s Howard Harding Jones, who came to Southern California back in 1923 and is still there. There’s Orin E. (Babe) Holling berry at Washington State. Babe has been tooth-gritting in the Pa louse hill for better than ten cam paigns. Down at Los Angeles Chief Jones has competition in Bill The Weather Man says Rain and Colder So ...

Spaulding, who has directed UCLA gridiron maneuvers since long ago and far away when the Uclas Were mere babes, not even in the coast conference. Well, three on the coast, three where the peaks rise into the sky, and Zupke of the Ulini make sev en of our dozen ten-year men. The others? They are Bill Alexander, Georgia Tech; Morley Jennings, Baylor; Bill Raftery, Virginia Mili tary; De Ormond McLaughry, Brown, and Jack Sutherland, Pitts burgh. * * * Stagg is the grandest old man of all, for he has been coaching for 44 years, the last four at College of the Pacific. Next in line for long-time service is Glenn Scobey Warner, known to the boys and girls as Pop, who has spent 42 years tutoring at Carlisle Indian j school, Stanford, Temple, and a j few other institutions. Only two of the ten-year coaches are working for their alma maters. Those are Alexander at Georgia Tech and Sutherland at Pitt. And right now this column raises its insignificant little voice to nomin ate these two gentlemen for some thing or other in the way of a medal. They’ve earned it. * * * ..21SBwirftf-fd byears,tTs ETA E What, no fullbacks today? Well, ! there is one where they used to be three. First it was Bud Goodin who bunged up an already ailing knee and now a knee injury has ; laid out Tom Blackman, Bud’s suc cessor. But Jean Lacau and Ar leigh Bentley can jjlay fullback, too, so what. Bill Hayward assures that Blackman won’t be in there against Idaho Saturday. “There’s not a chance in the world that Tom j can play,” said Colonel Bill yester day. Which is just too bad. But the black-haired young triple-threat may be ready for Washintgon ■ State.

Noclog ging No trouble Prove it yo^ridlfl Callison Drills Gridders Under Hayward Lights Blackman Definitely Out For Saturday’s Game With Vandals; Lacau May Start By WENDELL WYATT Taking- no chances of his team suffering a let-down before Satur day’s impending battle with the University of Idaho, Coach Prink Callison ran his Oregon gridmen through three and one-half hours of scrimmage late yesterday after noon and early evening. Practice was finally halted at 7:30 after the footballers had been forced to move to Hayward field in order to use the lights. Trainer Bill Hayward made def i n i t e announcement that Tom Blackman, sophomore passer and replacement for Bud Goodin at fullback, would be unable to take part in the coming struggle with the Vandals. Blackman wrenched his knee in scrimmage last night. The Oregon fullback job, so ably taken care of in the past by such men as Mikulak and Michek, may fall into the hands of Jean Lacau, huge sophomore from San Fran cisco. In case Lacau does not draw the starting assignment, Ar leigh Bently, who scored the tying touchdown against Stanford, will fill in. Bently may possibly start at quarterback with Lacau at full. In the line, big Bill Foskett, who turned in a good performance (Please turn to page 4) George Varoff (Continued from page one) interested in Governor Lehman than in his own jump. “Gee, he is really a nice fellow,” he said. Yaroff says that the time he broke the record was one of the easiest jumps he ever made, which is often the case when records fall. Every muscle in his body coordin ated to perfection. He was even vaguely aware of Glen Cunning ham, Bill Bonthron, and Gene Venzke starting the 1500-meter race as he took off down the run way on his record jump. Unfortu nately, everybody was watching the race, and only the officials saw Varoff make his sensational vault. “I was surprised myself when I made it,” the young athlete con fessed. He says he has been pole vaulting for only four years. His first jump, he says, was nine feet. Varoff thinks that the principal requisites for a pole vaulter are plenty of speed and power in the arms and shoulders. He seems to have it. Only 22 years old now, at the next Olympiad he will be 26, at the peak of his physical development. George is a blue-eyed blond weighing 168 pounds, although he looks more like 180. He plays the bass viol in the University sym phony orchestra and hasn’t missed a concert while in school. He pre fers classical music. However, he has had several offers to play in dance orchestras. He did not attend the University last spring. But he joined the Olympic club in San Francisco, and along with his famous job as janitor he managed to keep up his training.

Betas Humble Omega Squad 14-0; ATO Men Topple Phi Sigs, 13-0 Phi Psis Edge Phi Delts, 1-0; Sigma Hall Drubs Canard Hall, 14-0; Beta Man Injured By RUSS ISELI Beta Theta Pi won from Omega Hall, 19 to 0, in the first of last night's touch tackle games to re main in the undefeated column. The ATOs beat Phi Sigma Kappa 13 to 0, to retain their place fh the win column. Phi Kappa Psi took a tight game from Phi Delta Theta, 1 to 0, to make their record read two wins and no defeats. Sig ma Hall took Canard. 14 to 0, to gain its second victory of the sea son. Betas 14, Omego 0 The Betas put up a slashing at tack that netted them two touch downs over Omega hall. Deadly passing by Matt Pavalunas con tributed greatly to Omega’s defeat. The first Beta touchdown came p.fter considerable difficulty. Three different attempts were made to score. On the first Si Wentworth caught the ball when he was clear out of the end zone and the play was disallowed. Bill Harrow snag ged a pass from Pavalunas but stepped out of bounds right on the goal line. The‘third attempt was good when Hal Duden broke into the clear and took another of Pav alunas’ passes to score. Duden converted to make the score 7-0. In the second half Jerry Kestly scored on a pass for the second Beta touchdown. He also made the conversion. With about three minutes left to play in the game, Bill Harrow, fullback for the Betas, ran into a telephone pole at one end of the field while trying to catch a pass. He suffered two broken ribs, con cussion of the brain, and possible skull fracture as a result of the accident. Bill is the ninth casuality so far in the touch football games, but the others were all minor injuries. ATO 13, Phi Sigs 0 ATO remained in the undefeated column by virtue of a two-touch down win over the Phi Sigs. A ser ies of short passes put ATO in position to score. Harold Reese lobbed over a short one which was taken by Harold Weston to ac count for the first ATO score. Weston converted to make the score 7-0. Jack Berry of ATO was tripped behind the Phi Sig goal line and missed a pass which was intended for him. The referee ruled the pass completed, however, because of in terference with the receiver. Glenn Record and Donald Bailey turned in a good ball game for the Phi Sigs but could not stop the ATO attack. Phi Psis 1, Phi Delts 0 The Phi Psis copped a close game from the Phi Delts, 1 to 0, after both teams had failed to score in the regular playing period. The Phi Delts were penalized 15 yards for tackling in the playoff period.

Warren plans on concentrating his attention to building a strong aerial attack and will devote a lot of time to this. Frosh passes re sulted in two touchdowns against Southern Oregon normal last week, but a lot of the plays were ragged, and the Duckling skipper intends to iron these out. Scrimmage With Varsity Practices this week have found the frosh squad spending a lot of time punting and passing, and the team has scrimmaged twice against Prink Cnllison's varsity. Reports from the Oregon State campus intimate that Howard Ma ple, new Rook mentor, will place a fairly heavy team on the field. The average is expected to be near 190 pounds. Oregon's freshman eleven, however, should average near that figure. The present frosh -forward wall averages about 190, but is held down to that figure by three lads who hit under 185 pounds. Ron Husk, 180-pound converted guard, is the lightest lineman. Erling Ja cobsen, center, and Vic Reginato, end, both weigh 185. Stein Scales 200 Jim Stein, guard, and Russ In skeep, tackle, are two "beefy boys,” each weighing an even 200. Elroy Jensen, tackle, hits 195 pounds, and Larry Lance, end, is a 190 pounder.

This new rule will al low all track lettermen except those who won their letter in the quarter, half-mile, mile, and two-1 mile races to enter the meet. In previous years all track lettermen were barred from running in the race. All intramural managers should have their men start working out as soon as possible. All entrants must have at least nine workouts before they can enter the race. Ac cording to Russ Cutler, the com petition is going to be pretty stiff this year. In order to win points a house must have three men finish the race under the time limit. The time limit is 20 minutes but this is sub ject to be changed. Any house may enter as many men as it wishes. There has been an increase of en trants in the cross country race in the past and Mr. Cutler expects 75 or 100 men entered this year. Opening Basketball Drill Set for Late This Month The first varsity basketball turnout will be held around the end of this month, according to Coach Howard Hobson.
