THE
Firing
Line
By PAT FRIZZELL
uhvk mammon aiiu juilu iciuj
are the men of the hour in Ore
gon football. The two sophomores
have given to Webfoot followers
color, something they’ve been de
manding for a long time.
Gammon flung the leather apple
last Saturday at Multnomah sta
dium, and Yerby caught it. They
didn't go through the act so many
times, but they did it often enough
to write their names on the foot
ball map temporarily,
y How does it feel to thrill a crowd
’ of 35,000? Well, according to the
sophomore from Benson Tech and
the sophomore from Grant, you
don’t even notice it.
“It was just like any other ball
game,” is the way Gammon sums
it up. The burly Dave has played
left half before, so probably it
wasn’t such a thrill after all. He
played end his first season in high
school and spent the next two at
left half, where he passed, kicked,
and carried the ball.
Yerby is a baseball player as
well as a gridder, so he’s used to
hauling down the high, hard ones.
They weren’t high and he didn’t
have to run much for ’em Satur
W day, but they were hard—right
into his mitts. “They hit me like
a ten-ton truck,” says Mr. Yerby,
by way of explanation.
Yerby played the game of his
life against Washington. No doubt
about it. He’s been up and down
before, but Saturday he stayed up.
“Sure, I think we’ll beat UCLA,”
said Dave Gammon last night after
practice. Yerby chimed in. And
the two sophomores will have a lot
to say about it. If they never com
plete another pass, they’ve started
the ball rolling. However, it’s odds
-on that they’ll complete some to
morrow afternoon.
Gammon says he doesn’t care
much whether he plays left half
or right. “One thing I like about
the position I’m, playing now,” he
says, “is the punting. I like to do
that.”
Dave not only enjoys booting the
, pigskin, but he’s darn good at it.
He had to be to out-kick Elmer
Logg. And remember that just
y last spring Gammon was a sick
lad, not expected to live.
Gammon was sick in bed and
Y’erby wasn’t considered such a hot
prospect. But look at ’em now.
They’re a real passing combina
tion.

“Tom Blackman and Joe Hus
ton are ready,” assured Colonel
Bill Hayward in the supply room
at the Igloo yesterday, “but before
they play they’ll have to make the
team.”
That is apparently Prink Calli
son’s idea, also. It's a tough task
to bust into a starting lineup when
you’ve been laid up with an injury
for weeks. Huston and Blackman
will probably get in there tomor
. row, but they’re not regulars yet.
' Huston hasn’t played since the
Southern California game early in
October, and Blackman's last game
was the Stanford’ tussle a week
later. Return of the two will help
the Webfoots plenty. There’s Cal
ifornia and Oregon State to beat
after tomorrow, and Huston and
Blackman can take full-time licks
at those outfits.
The freshman football champion
ship of the Pacific Northwest will
be at stake when John Warren’s
Ducklings tear into Washington's
Babes at Seattle tomorrow after
noon. Possibly freshman football
dominance of the Northwest does
n’t mean so much. But it’s a nice
bit of bric-a-brac for any yearling
ball club to stow in its trophy case.
Here’s the way it works. Wash
ington’s frosh trounced Washing
^ ton State, 13 to 6. The Ducklings,
as you know, tumbled Oregon
State's rooks and will probably do
it again. This means tomorrow’s
fray is between teams undefeated
in freshman competition.
Coach Warren oozed pessimism
yesterday afternoon, with his
team’s departure less than 24 hours
away, and he probably has some
cause. Loss of Bill Rach, right
half, has weakened the squad, and
now little Jay Graybeal is out of
action. Paul Howe is a question
able starter. For once, the genial
Warren seems to have an injury
list he doesn’t have to pad.
The yearlings still able to wad
dle around are out after Husky

Battle plans are laid and there's
nothing left but the fight itself.
Football teams of Oregon and
UCLA are ready for tomorrow’s
coast conference struggle in Port
land. The Webfoots have one more
workout this afternoon on Hay
ward field, and at the same time
the Bruins will test the sawdust
of Multnomah stadium field.
Prink Callison didn't send the
Ducks through any scrimmage last
night, wrhich means that the team
went scrimmageless all week. The
reserves tasted a bit of the hard
grind Monday, but the regulars
took that day off completely.
Same Lineup Listed
Mentor Callison plans to start
the same lineup that opene’d
against Washington last week. A
likely change is substitution of
John Yerby for John Engstrom at
left end.
Cheering news came yesterday
from Trainer Bill Hayward, who
says that Joe Huston and Tom
Blackman are definitely ready for
action. Huston won’t start at
guard tomorrow and Blackman
won’t open at fullback, but both
will be able to play if necessary.
Both have been laid up with knee
injuries.
More Passes
The Webfoots continued to pass
and then pass some more in prac
tice last night. On the firing end
were Dave Gammon, Dale Lasselle,
Jimmy Nicholson, Arleigh Bentley,
Bob Braddock, and Blackman. Re
ceiving were the ends and, occas
ionally, some of the backs.
Indications are that Oregon will
again strike with an aerial of
fense tomorrow. The Webfoots
proved they could pile up yardage
through the overhead route last
week, and they have plans of doing
likewise against UCLA.
Bruins Stress Attack
The Bruins in previous games
have gone after touchdowns of
their own and let defense take
care of itself. They allowed Oregon
State to pile up 13 points two
weeks ago, but they ran up 22 of
their own to win.
Leading cogs in the UCLA of
fense are young Bill Spalding, son
of the coach, and Billy Bob Wil
liams, considered one of the great
est backs on the coast. Other out
standing Bruin backs are Fred
Funk, Earle Harris, Hal Hirshon,
and Donvel Ferguson.
Captain George Dickerson, left
tackle, and Sherman Chavoor, cen
ter, are pillars of strength in the
Bruin line. Bob Schroeder, two
year letterman end, is another
luminary.

Over Washington State
Kitten Eleven
Boasting an array-of stars two
deep for every position, Coach
Tubby Graves, Washington frosh
mentor, plans on sending the
school's toughest yearling team in
several years against the Oregon
Ducklings in Seattle Saturday af
ternoon.
It will be the third and final
game of the season for the Husky
Babes, who last week took a 13 to
6 victory from their traditional
rivals, the Washington State Coug
ar Kittens. The team ran into
hard luck in its first game against
Bellingham normal, losing 6 to 0
on a fog covered field.
Portlanders figured in last
week's WSC yearling game at
Pullman between the two Wash
ington rivals. The Husky frosh
trailed 6 to 0 at half time, but got
back into the game when little
| Billy Gleason, former Rose City
I star, got loose on a 58-yard touch
down dash. Dick Emerson of
Portland aided in the first Kitten
score.
Several Babes were on the injury
list earlier this week, but Coach
Graves has them all back in shape
and plans to send his strongest
team against the Webfoot frosh.
His team, according to reports, is
planning on making it two in a
row over the Ducklings.
The starting Washington year
ling backfield includes Gleason at
left half, and a lad named Billy
Hill, ex-Garfield threat, who han
dles line plunging at fullback. At
blocking quarterback the Husky
Babes have a stocky player named
Bird, and at right half to handle
the passing they have Charlie Rus
sell, another threat from Garfield
high.

Sketches
By MORRIE HENDERSON
DAVE GAMMON
The surprise player of the year.
That’s Dave Gammon, now a start
ing left halfback, after his show
ing in the University of Washing
ton game. Nobody knew mucjn
about Dave except that he was a
sophomore right half who showed
lots of ability, and then, Coach
Prince Callison started him at left
half in the Husky game.
With a chance to show his stuff,
Gammon outpassed, outkicked, and
outran the whole Washington line
and backfield. His accurate, fast
passes to ends, Yerby and Nilsen,
put Oregon in scoring position sev
eral times and amassed a total of
196 yards. He out-kicked the fam
ous Elmer Logg throughout the
game, averaging 39 yards per kick.
His average was brought down by
having to kick out of bounds sev
eral times. Gammon is not an ex
ceptionally fast man but he aver
ages over 9 yards on his punt re
turns, by smashing right through
oncoming tacklers instead of try
ing to dodge them. That is some
thing when men like Markov,
Bond, and Starcevich are coming
towards you. Gammon is going to
give coast opponents lots of
trouble in his next two years.
Watch him go! -
Gammon is from Benson Tech
in Portland where he made all-citv
in his senior year with a team
that were not champions.

Leaves Today
For Babe Tilt

Yearlings Practically at
Full Strength as Time
For Annual Grid Fray
Draws Close
The Oregon Duckling football
team, 27 strong, will leave by train
at noon today for its battle up in
Seattle against the University of
Washington's vaunted freshman
team. Game time is set for 2
o’clock Saturday afternoon.
Coach Warren ran his squad
through a light drill yesterday af
ternoon as its final workout, and
has the yearling team in fine shape
for the Babe tilt. All of the frosh
cripples, with the exception of Bill
Rach, chunky right half, are back
in condition again for the first time
in two weeks. Rach is still on
crutches from his knee injury.
Same Lineup
Warren plans to start practical
ly the same lineup that opened the
rook game, so should have a pow
erful offensive eleven that will be
hard to stop. The two main scor
ing threats, George Jesse and Jay
Graybeal, are back in togs again,
and are expected to spark the
frosh scoring plays.
The team’s ace southpaw passer,
Bob Smith, Medford's contribution
it right half, is recovered from his
back injury, and he, along with
Paul Rowe, blond smashing full
back, will add to the Ducklin
team's scoring power.
Donovan or Husk
To handle the heavy blocking as
signments at quarterback, Warren
lias either Dennis Donovan or Ron
Husk to choose from. The forward
wall is intact again. Tentative
starters are: Lance and Reginato,
ends; Inskeep and Jensen, tackles;
Beggs and Stein or Jones, guards;
Jacobsen, center.
The frosh team, with practical
ly all of its ailing players returned,

Yeomen Edge Out
Win Over Beta Men
In Bitter Struggle
From the
Inside
By CECE WALDEN
This cold damp weather that
seems to roll in every evening
about 6 o’clock isn't any too com
fortable for those who have to
stand around during football prac
tice. Last night it seemed quite
chilly to certain ones of the coach
ing and training staff, so Col. Bill
Hayward, veteran Webfoot trainer,
built a fire on one corner of Hay
ward field in order to keep warm
and to warm others of the coach
ing and training staff. Looks of
envy could be seen on the faces of
team members who were not par
ticipating in the dummy scrim
mage at the time.
Speaking of Col. Bill Hayward,
we mighj add that his sense of
humor is tops with members of the
Oregon team. Bill is always kid
ding some one of the Duck play
ers, and three of his best known
victims are Tony Amato, Chan
Berry and Bill Foskett. These
three however are not the only
ones who fall victims for some of
his well known pranks, for at
some time during the season every
one on the squad gets fooled by
his seriousness when pulling one
of his jokes. Very few have ever
bested Bill because he always
seems to be able to go them one
better. Bill is really a very im
portant cog in the Oregon grid

Carlson Scores Points;
Betas’ Passing Attack
Stopped by Yeomen;
Pavalunas Stars
A fighting bunch of Yeomen up
set the dope bucket yesterday and
beat. Beta Theta Pi. 6 to 0, to es
tablish themselves as champions
of the intramural touch football
league.
The Yeomen went into the game
as under-dogs but capitalized on a
break that resulted in a score.
The only touchdown during the
contest came after Henry Kokko,
giaqt Yeoman end, reached high
into the air and snagged a wild
Beta pass. He ran the ball to the
Beta ten before he was tagged.
From there three plays were re
quired to make the touchdown,
which came via the air route from
Harold Draper to Stanley Carlson.
Platt failed to convert.
Betas Begin Drive
The Betas immediately began a
drive which forced the Yeomen
back to their own II, but there the
independents grew stubborn and
gained possession of the ball on
downs.
A Yeoman offensive piled up
against a strong Beta defense, and
a punt put the ball back in mid
field. Ken Purdy snatched two
passes from Matt Pavalunas for a
net gain of 25 yards and the Betas
were again in position to score.
Penalty Halts Drive
A penalty of 15 yards for hold
ing dealt a blow to their touch
down hopes, but a nice end' run by
Pavalunas put the ball back on the
