Cleats Dig Into New Hayward Turf as Ducks Strive for Triumph Over Stanford's Indians Today's Teletype Talk By STAN HOBSON Justice Takes Post Russians Cross Styx Green Blasts Lewis Free Beer Denied G O.P.’s Make Plans Action Postponed On Black Eligibility WASHINGTON—With all the solemnity befitting a supremo court judge, Justice Hugo L. Black yesterday took his place behind the great mahogany bench with his “eight old men” bedfellows and listened, among other things, to a pair of motions designed to unseat him. Both motions were based on con stitutional grounds, with no refer ence being made to his former or present Klan status. A capacity crowd listened in the court cham bers as his colleagues postponed action on the question. Coffin Trade Jumps In Soviet Russia MOSCOW—Executions, arrests, and! dismissals of Soviet Russian officials continued at a brisk pace yesterday as Reds strived to main tain their quota of subjects for wooden overcoats. Preceded by a period of comparative calm, the past two weeks have seen 114 “comrades” receive the death pen alty. Trial offenses ranged from such genuine outlawry as grain destruc tion, for which 28 grain trust em ployees died in Moscow and Irk utsk, down to maltreatment of zoo animals. Two men were jailed for scaring the animals bad enough to give them ailments. CIO Chief Charged With Ulterior Motive DENVER — Accusing John L. Lewis of using the CIO as a tool with which he hopes to eventually gain the presidency of the United States, the A. F. of L.’s William Green again lashed the adversary with a bitter denunciation at the Federation’s 97th annual conven tion. Yesterday he pledged his fol lowers to destroy the CIO. Green: ‘‘I appeal to the Ameri can people and the organized work ers of America to choose between the unselfish, common sense politi cal policy of labor and one dictat ed by unreasoning personal ambi tion, doomed from the outset to failure.” “Beer Bust” Assumes Somber Attitude CHAMBERSBURG, Pa.—A re tail beer distributor’s picnic turned sour yesterday when a wide-awake liquor control board agent ap peared on the scene. Noticing that free beer was to be given with a $1 ticket to the affair, he informed eager guzzlers that it was against the law. Accordingly, case after case of soda pop was rushed to the picnic grounds and a perfectly good “beer bust” turned into a carbonated water tinge.

Above, Jay Graybeai grabs a pass early in the fourth, quarter. Colonel Frank Knox got together with plans for a 1938 convention. Hoover urged a “positive” and “courageous” draft of policies .by a committee of “distinguished Re publicans” to meet “the crisis in the party and in the country.’ Young Republicans were encour aged to voice their opinions in par ty matters by both Hoover and Knox. Oregon Profs View (Continued from page one) consul that I had better leave at 6 o’clock on the last guaranteed train out of Peking. It was after four when I got the message, bdt I was on the train shortly after five and got the last seat. It was crowded with Japanese women who were trying to escape from Peking while departure was still possible. “We reached Tientsin all right, although the track had been'torn up two days previously. A half hour after we reached Tientsin, there was a fight between Japanese and Chinese at the East station where we had landed. A week later, the East station was fired upon and partially destroyed.” Gage Leaves Peking “I left Peking July 16,” Dr. Gage says, “and although there was a great deal of tension and barri cades had been thrown up on all the streets, the thought of war was still an unreality. The 30-foot wall with its 100 foot towers was heavily guarded and no one was allowed to leave the city for fear that they might not be able to get back inside the walls. “Back in Tientsin there was more confusion. The Japanese were moving troop trains in from Man churia to Korea. Finally allowed a ticket through Manchuria, I was the only white man on the train, which was loaded with Japanese who were anxious to learn a for eigner’s opinion on their activities in North China. Japanese officers put a spotter on my trail in an attempt to get information. I counted ten troop trains which we passed before an officer ordered my window curtain pulled. All during the night we met trains headed for the hostilities.” Fears Air llaids Professor Bowen also had a hard time getting out of north China without making the long trip back to Shanghai, he says: “On the way from Tientsin to Mukden my train was delayed for long periods by the large number of Japanese troop trains rushing into the area. We reached Mukden at 3 o'clock in the morning to find the city in total darkness because of fear of air raids. Foreign ho tels were filled and I finally had to grope my way to a room in a Japanese hotel. I left Mukden for Japan the next day as there would have been no transportation for some time after that. I reached Japan without trouble and spent three weeks there before I left for America August 8.” Tinder Box Cities Both men report that none of the people they encountered hai any idea of the war which the north China incident propagated However, both did find the feeling of intense fear of Russia in Japan "I was in Japan during their air protection maneuvers,” says Mr Gage. “Tlieir cities are like tmtfei boxes with the houses flimsy and close together on very narrow streets. A few incendiary bombs would touch them off like a stack of cigar boxes. They darken the towns at night while the home guard instructs the people on how to act in case of attack. To add realism to the maneuvers, they have squadrons of airplanes dron ing overhead and batteries of anti aircraft guns firing continuously. On the final day they lay down a smoke screen, meant to cover the strategic spots of the towns.” Fear of Russia "I met one man who knew from inside knowledge that, though Jap anese troops were being moved from Manchuria into north China, troops from Japan are being rushed to the Russian border in case of intervention from the Soviets. The Japanese also in fear that shpuld Russia enter the conflict, the Ko reans will attempt to throw off their recent conquerors." Possibility of Blockade ‘‘If Japan can enforce her block ade of China, she may be able to starve the defenders into submis sion,” Mr. Gage thinks. “I found much poverty in Japan but not nearly on the large scale that it runs in China. "Whatever happens in China, however, I believe that we who were in Shanghai this year saw that city at its height of white domination. It will either return to Chinese scale or become a sec ond Tokio. I think that white su periority there is on the wane ” Professor Bowen was struck by the indifference of the Chinese people in the farming areas to ward the invading Japanese, he ex claims. He thinks that the Japan ese people as a nation regret the war because of the high taxes they know it will impose upon them. Visitors at Delta Upsilon over the week-end were Jimmy Fergu son, Stan Smith, Tommy Briody, Ray Hackenbury, Bob Hirstel and Lowell O’Connell. Jerry Kestly has been appointed slave driver at Beta Theta Pi. Super Varsity —. _ . .. (Continued from fane tuv) Oregon’s net loss from the game was Larry Lance, rapidly improv ing sophomore end, who suffered a | dislocated shoulder in the last play of the first half. It is believed that Larry will return to the team in three or four weeks at the earliest. Backs Graybeal, Smith, Dale Lasselle, Arleigh Bentley, Hank Nilsen, and Ted Gebhardt, all en joyed comparative rests in reward for their work Saturday. Most of the linesmen who saw action in the game, also rested yesterday, while the rest of the squad was put in action against John Warren's frosh. Duck Tracks (Continued froth ftayc two) Figuring It on the Iwsis of a once-beaten champion, there are still eight contenders. This year’s ( Hose Bowl team is very apt to have one defeat or tie for its seven game slate, but no more. Two losses should definitely eliminate a club. Some difference this round-robin schedule, for an eight team con ference, from that disorganized group which functioned before 1980. Oregon went to the Hose Bowl back in 1919 by winning only three games out of four in a ten team conference. Short shots-- Rod Speetzen, Lar ry Lance, and Leonard Robertson, all ends on the Webfoot eleven, were first to arrive on the campus this fall for work. Tom Hayashi won the Columbia river swim this minii Go Canoeing J for exercise, adventure B and pleasure. There will, only be a, few nice days left and the race is prettiest in its fall colors.
