THE Firing Line By PAT FRIZZELL The score was 28 to 0, but from all that can be gathered, the Web foots didn’t conduct themselves so badly down in Berkeley. If the lads had pushed over a touchdown on one of those big first quarter op portunities, they might have held the Bear “army.” It was, veritably, an army that Stub Allison threw at our poor Ducks. As has been pointed out before, one good team has a fair chance against two, but when three or four teams of ambitious grid men dash on a field in rapid suc cession, all rarin’ to go places and do things, it takes reserves to counter. It takes more reserves than Oregon can muster. Figure it out for yourself. Ore gon outplayed the Bears in the first half, before California reserve strength began to tell. The Web foots stuck to their guns and re pelled the army assault in the third quarter. But in the final chapter, with fresh Bears cavorting in every position, the northerners wilted. The home lads began tearing holes in the line as wide as the ’Frisco Oakland bridge, and it was all over. Outclassed Oregon? No, not en tirely. It was just one small de tachment against a mighty army of reserves. The Bears had six left halfbacks. When one got tired of galloping, Stub Allison (yes, he’s quieted the wolves) would dispatch another to harrass the fagged-out Oregons. If the coast conference continues on a round-robin basis, it seems fitting that measures should . be taken to give all members as near ly an equal chance as possible. There have been enough upsets this fall for anybody, so perhaps we're just shedding salt tears because Oregon hasn’t pulled those upsets. Just the same, why wouldn’t it be a good thing for the whole loop if some regulation were made al lowing teams.only a limited num ber of men, say 25 on each squad? The eligible group could be changed at any time, but only 25 would be allowed to play in any one game. Such an arrangement would pre vent the big California schools from running wild over the smaller outfits because of sheer numbers. In professional football they keep the squads down to 22, thus put ting victory and defeat up to the players and' not the numbers. Twenty-five men are enough for any ball game anywhere. It’s just an idea, but why not less numeri cal triumphs and more good old fashioned brawls in which each team starts from the same post? When the fruits and nuts are stored away and we all gather around grandmother’s bulging table with its cranberries and tur key and pumpkin pie with whipped cream, mayhap we’ll know who’s to be honored with the Rose Bowl plum from the West. Not until then, however, and perhaps not even on that glad Thanksgiving will we be informed. On the day of thanks Washing ton’s husky horde entertains Washington State’s Cougars in Seattle. Choose any year you want, and that game’s a tossup. If Wash ington wins, the Huskies have the conference championship sewed up like a pincushion and with it the coveted Pasadena prize.

A tur key is to be presented to the first man to finish the three-mile run. The time limit has been length ened to 21 minutes. The additional minutes was added because of the addition of 220 yards to the course. Race Starts at Four House athletic managers should get in touch with Russ Cutler and check all their entries as soon as possible. All men are asked to re port to Hayward field promptly at 3:45 p.m. on Thursday. The race will start at 4 p.m. The entries will be numbered as soon as they arrive at the field. To the winning house will go the beautiful Hayward trophy, awaded each year. The trophy, a hand some silver cup, was donated by Bill Hayward, Oregon's famous track coach, three years ago. Kappa Sigs, Yeomen Win The Kappa Sigs won it the first year and the Yeomen won last year. The first house winning the trophy three times will be allowed to keep it permanently. Each house must have three men finish the course under the time limit in order to receive any points. The winning house will re ceive 75 points. ington State spills the Malamutes it’il be ail tied up, with each team having on its record one tie and one defeat, * * * So don’t hand the Huskies the Rose Bowl nomination, quite yet. The mighty Trojans bowed down to Washington Saturday and kept the Pasadena assignment (an assignment worth a mere $65,000 to $80,000 in the Northwest, where it hasn't been since another gen eration of Washington State play ers folded up before an Alabama avalanche back in 1930.. ■ What if the Huskies and Cou gars finish in a tie for the top and the Rose Bowl ? Will they flip a coin or draw straws? You guess.

Stiff Scrimmage Held by Hoopers On Igloo Floor Oregon’s varsity basketball squad got down to brass tacks last night as Coach Howard Hobson put his charges through their first •stiff scrimmage session of the season on McArthur court. Scrimmages will be held daily in preparation for the opening tilt with the UCLA Bruins here on De cember 12. The squad is very green. Hob son's fast-breaking offense is new to most members, and they seem to have trouble accustoming them selves to it. This year's team will be much smaller than last year’s Grenadiers, according to Hobson. Five lettermen are working out daily, but only one, Dave Silver, played regularly last season. The others—Ken Purdy, Bill Harcombe, Johnny Lewis, and Bill Courtney— were substitutes. The rest of the squad, made up of inexperienced sophomores and transfers, includes: Ray Jewell, Waype Scott, Bob Becker, Wally Johansen, Bobby Anet, Laddie Gale, Slim Winter mute, Gale Smith, Ford Mullen, and George Jackson.

The Webfoots took a 28 to 0 hellacking at Berkeley, after hold lg the California Bears in check or three quarters. Superior re erve power of the Bears and Ore on fumbles at crucial moments llowed the score to pile up. Webfoots Show Well Despite the overwhelming dc eat, the Webfoots, according to eports of observers, made a re pectable showing. They came /ithin an ace of scoring in the irst quarter, when a fumble on the wo-yard line stopped a seemingly ertain touchdown. On two other ccasions in the first half the Web oots drove to the shadow of the California goal, only to be turned iack. The players returned in good ondition, according to Trainer Jill Hayward, with the exception if Arleigh Bentley, fullback, and ien Skinner, tackle, Bentley, spark ilug of Oregon’s early drive at Jerkeley, suffered an ankle injury, ikinner played a large part of the ;ame but suffered a slight recur ence of his old shoulder injury. When Bentley was removed rom Saturday’s fray, the Web oots immediately lost the drive yhich kept them on the offensive hrougli the first half. It was not :ertain yesterday whether or not Jentley can play against Oregon State. Prior to Saturday, he was ised at quarterback, and his trans er to fullback peppered up the earn considerably.

Lacrosse to Be Played By Women PE Majors Seventeen women PE majors got together last week and began to formulate plans for playing la crosse. It is a non-seasonal game, and if it receives enough support it will be carried over into winter term. Miss Janet Woodruff, associate professor of physical education, is in charge. The majors wish it to be known that they don't intend to monopolize the game, and urge anyone at all interested to turn out. I ual all-American demonstration at Berkeley, and Ed Farrar played one of the best games of his career at center. Tony Amato was a standout at guard. In Oregon’s backfield Jimmy Nicholson, Don Kennedy, and Bob Braddock stood out along with Bentley. Nicholson proved elusive in the first half and several times got away for long gains. Kennedy scintillated on de tense • and came within an ace of returning the second half kickoff for a touchdown. Not for six years has Oregon State beaten Oregon. This year Lonnie Stiner’s Beavers rate as odds-on favorites over the Web foots, who have yet to win a con ference game. Tonight Prink Calli son and his coaching staff will be gin a week of practice for what the Ducks arc hoping will be their first and last league win. a If you could overhear some of the remarks a made about your handwritten papers— jj you’d TYPE THEM 3 ij Kent u typewriter—l’ut it to work !
