    DUCK
TRACKS
By ELBERT HAWKINS
Scribes from here to Timbuktu
are picking winners this fall. Most
of ’em aren’t any more psychic
than the next guy, but they never
theless have to pour over scores
and more scores, and come up with
about three dozen choices every
week.
Just like the golfer who is wait
ing for his hole in one, they keep
hammering out the prognostica
tions, hoping against hope that
someday only ten per cent will be
wrong. Of course the idea is to
pick enough “soft” ones to make
up for the ones which go haywire.
IJke in the coast conference for
instance.
They’re all prognosticating this
fall, so to keep up with “the
Joneses” I’ll have to start the pain
ful task. The following weren’t
picked out of a hat either, but
came as a rsult of some diligent
research. Forty is the number of
games picked this time, so about
thirty should be right—or else.
* * *
Of course Oregon and Oregon
State must rate the first choice.
It all boils down to the simple fact
that Stiner’a Orangemen seem to
have an edge in defense, and the
Webfoots in scoring. Both teams
should counter, so assuming that
Oregon’s line tightens up a bit,
and Graybeal and co. continue their
flashy point-producing, it’ll be Ore
gon, 13 to 7, in a humdinger.
California’s Golden Bears should
get knocked over this season, but.
not by Southern California. The
Bears will win, 7 to 0. UCLA
should tip Washington State, 13 to
0, in one conference game, and
Stanford .will squeeze through a
7 to 0 win over Washington in the
other.
At. Corvallis tonight, the Duck
lings should find a terrific battle
in Bill McKalip’s Oregon State
rooks, but the Warrenmen are a
little too strong. Call it 13 to 7.
Other coast choices are: St. Marys
13, Idaho 0, and Santa Clara 2(i,
Loyola 6.
We’ll take the rest as they come,
and forget geographic location.
The list fairly represents every sec
tion of the country.
Northwestern IT. 7, Ohio State 0.
Louisiana State fi, Vanderbilt 0.
Nebraska 12, Missouri university
0.
Arkansas U. 7, Southern Method
ist 6.
Army 3, Washington university
0.
Oklahoma (i, Kansas 0.
Georgia U. 27, Mercer 0.
Boston College 6, Detroit 0.
Did you ever hear of the Ouach
ita football team? Neither did I,
so they’ll lost' to Mississippi univer
sity by 40 to 0. A really tough one
to pick is Carnegie Tech against
Pop Warner’s Temple boys. Car
negie, 18 to 6.
Princeton 19, Rutegers G.
Centenary 12, Arizona U. 0.
Auburn 7. Georgia Tech G.
Pittsburgh 13, Wisconsin 12.
Michigan State 14, Marquette 7.
Manhattan college 9, Kentucky
Holy Cross 33, Western Mary
land 0.
Tennessee 25, Sewanee 0.
Which brings us to one of those
traditional affairs between Har
vard and Dartmouth. Harvard won
handily last season, 2G to 7, and
should repeat this time, only closer
17 to 0.
Indiana U. 45, Cincinnati 0.
Syracuse 20, Maryland 7.
Navy 14, Notre Dame G.
Vale 13, Cornell 0.
Tulsa U. 19, Oklahoma A. & M
0.
Duke U. 19, Colgate 0.
Texas Christian 7. Fordham 7.
Columbia U. 20, Brown 0.
Villanova 13, Bueknell 0. /
North Carolina 27, Tulane 0.
Texas A. & M. 9, Baylor G.
Drake 13, Iowa State 0.

Passes Given
Attention by
Oregon Team
Bob Smith, Anderson
Throw Aerials in
Practice Session;
Rach Will Play
The tact that reserved seats
have been sold out for a week, and
that there are only 3,000 general
admission tickets left failed to
bother Head Coach Prink Callison
yesterday as he sent his charges
through their first open workout
this week.
Apparently Coach Callison has
not given up hope of breaking
through the stout Beaver line, as
yesterday he was working with
both Paul Rowe and Bill Rach,
with Rach showing especially well.
Rach, 3 90-pound sophomore full
back from Seattle, suffered an an
kle injury early in the season
which has kept him on the side
lines in every game so far.
Smith, Anderson Pass
Further evidence that Callison
expects also to go over the Oregon
.State forward wall was given yes
terday when he spent much time
with Bob Smith and Steve Ander
I son, ace passers of the squad.
With Smith was his touchdown
twin, Jay Graybeal. This combin
ation has scored 3 of Oregon’s 11
I touchdowns, as well as working
nicely on last year's frosh squad.
I Steve Anderson, who threw most
of Oregon's 29 passes against
USC, also came in for his share of
attention duriqg the workout.
Two Lineup Changes
Callison indicated yesterday that
practically the same lineup that
started against the University of
Southern California last week
would start against the Staters
Saturday.
The two exceptions arc Vernon
Moore at center for Denny Breaid
and Bill Estes at tackle for Ellroy
Jensen.
The rest of the lineup includes
John Yerby and Bud Robertson at
ends, Bill Foskett at the other
tackle, Joe Huston and Captain
Tony. Amato at guards, Hank Nil
sen at quarterback, Steven Ander
son and Dale Lasselle, halfbacks;
and Paul Rowe, fullback.
Two Bnckfields
Two other backfields were
formed by Callison with the first
one consisting of Denny Donovan,
pass-catcher de luxe, quarterback;
Bob Smith and Jay Graybeal, the
Pendleton jackrabbit, halfbacks,
and Arleigh Bentley, fullback. In
the other combination were Jimmy
Nicholson and Ted Gebhardt, half
backs, Bill Rach, fullback; and
Ernie Robertson, quarterback.
A short session this afternoon
will wind up practice for the big
game Saturday.

Economics Class
Is Propositioned
By Dean Gilbert
“I'll make you a proposition,"
was the eccentric greeting of Dean
Gilbert to his Tuesday 8 o’clock
economics class.
“If the Oregon football team
wins or draws with the Beavers
this weekend, our economics exam
will be postponed until the second
meeting next week; but in case of
a Webfoot defeat, it will be advis
able for you to come prepared Mon
day morning,” he added.
“This reasoning is not as irra
tional as it might seem, because if
we emerge victorious, there is na
turally sufficient reason for cele
bration,” he contended.
“If OSC wins, then studying
econ. will of necessity prevent stu
dents from drowning their sorrows.
An additional feature is the pos
sibility of its instilling within the
grid men in this class the incentive
to overcome the Staters,” he con
cluded.

By Injured Sterling
Corvallis, October 21. Big Elmer
Kolberg-, two-year letterman, who
is generally considered the best de
fensive fullback on the Pacific
coast has been chosen to captain
the Oregon State football team
against the University of Oregon
at Eugene, Saturday afternoon.
Lon Stiner, Oregon State coach,
also announced the Oregon State
starting lineup as follows: Don
Coons, left end; Frank Nihil, left

ins, light guard; John Watts,
right tackle; Joe Wcndlick, light
end; Bill Duncan, quarterback;
Joe Gray, left half; Jay Mercer,
right half, and Captain Kolberg,
fullback.
Watts Takes Over
Only change in the Orange start
ing lineup is at right tackle where
Watts takes the place of Leon
Sterling who was injured last Sat
urday. Only other man who may
not see action due to injury is
Warren Gillis, second-string left

Among the Orange second
stringers who are almost certain
to perform against the Webfoots
are Dick Sutherland, end; Eberle
Schultz, guard and center; John
Hackenbruck, tackle; John Eilers,
Bob Mountain, Hal Higgins and
John Alexander, halfbacks, and
Ben Ell, fullback.

special train, at noon, Saturday.
The students and band will march
directly to Hayward field where
the big game starts at 2 o'clock.

LATEST DISCOVERY |
IN PIPES
Although the winner of the fray
was decided at the end of the fif- 1
teenth hole, play was very close in
all matches. In the main tpatch,
Kldridge, after a poor start on the
first, came through with a 15-foot
putt to tie the hole.
Kindtner, after driving into some i
trees on the left of the fourth fair
way, settled down and took the
hole, tin the fifth, when Kldridge
drove into the rough on his second
shot, and hit a tree on the third,
Kindtner took advantage of the
opening and won with a par. He I
won the next three with two pars
and a birdie, but Kldridge took the
ninth to tie the nine.

The second match, Weston-Da

drives, each one getting off some
exceptional tee shots. Fiji's Davis
didn't get well started until the
fifth, but from there held a lead 1
which he did not relinqusli. '■

May They Duplicate This Tomorrow
Oregon’s Webfoots had a rather rocky time of it in last Saturday’s 34 to 14 defeat at the hands of
Southern California, but this picture shows L. Robertson getting away for a 10-yard gain. USC’s McNeil
(47) and Fisk (50) nailed him.

that a number of the promising
aspirants will be sufficiently do

Work Together
Freshmen and varsity men ar<
working together at present, anc
will participate in the intramura
contest which will be run over tht
local three-mile course in the neai
future, said McGaughey. This i:
the only actual competition expo
rienced by the freshmen this year
but this fall development is inval
uable in building up endurance foi
spring track, he added.
Selection of the five-man team
to represent Oregon is expected tc
become much more simplified wlier
the abilities of the various mem
bers of the squad becomes pro
nounced. The men who seem to be
occupying the top positions during
the earlier training period, but whe
will undoubtedly be pressed for
their berths by those in the lower
bracket, are Crawford Lyle of Eu

track team, Jack Davidson, Ellens

Cottage Grove, Kirman Storli and
Bob Nesse, both of Portland.
Two Han't Count
Two ineligible men now working
out with the cross country squad,
who have shown possibilities -,of
strengthening the distance depart

Phi Delta Theta, defending do
nut tennis champs, and Alpha Tau
Omega are due to match racquets
for the intramural championship
today following their victories yes
terday over Gamma Hail and Chi
Psi lodge.
The Phi Delts were assured an
other chance to defend their title
by humbling a fighting team from
the Chi Psis by a 2 to 1 score.
Ellis, Chi Psi singles man, took
the opening match of the day when
he defeated Phillipi of the Phi
Delts in straight sets, 6-4, 6-4.
Barn Duet Wins
De Pittard and Blanchard evened
the score for the Phi Delts by win
ning the first doubles match from
Boyei' and Brycen of the lodge,
1-6, 6-0, 6-2. The barn duet failed
to get going in the first set, but
decisively turned the tables in the
deciding two sets.
The Phi Delts gained a winning
margin in the match when Cor
bett and Shipley downed McClung
and Sullivan in straight sets, 6-4,
6-4.
ATOs Victorious
The ATOs gained another chance
to crack at the Phi Delts in the
finals by dropping Gamma hall by
a 2 to 1 score yesterday. The
match procedure practically dupli
cated the Phi Delt-Chi Psi battle
when Cardinal won the singles
matches from Stafford of the
ATOs by 6-0, 6-1 scores, and then
the hotelmen took both doubles
matches.

Duckling Warriors Face
Orange Yearlings Under
Corvallis Lights Tonight
By BOB JORDAN
Winding up practice with a short signal drill under the lights of
Hayward field last night, “Honest John” Warren will send a doubtful
forward wall and a powerful backfield into the second battle of the
“little civil war" against the rooks at Corvallis tonight.
Up to the present time the Duckling front rank has been as full of
noies as a piece or Swiss cneese.
| In tfie first fracas of the series at
Portland, the Beaver backs spent
! most of their time walking over
the mighty frosh line.
Babes Out to W in
The Beaver Yearling’s scoring
aces, “Rowdy” Dow and Joe Tom
ich, are all set to repeat this same
performance. Over at Corvallis
they're saying that the frosh first
row will leave the gridiron with
grass growing out of their hair.
Turning to the offensive side of
the story, Oregon's prospects are
as bright as the noonday sun. War
ren has one of the most potent
backfield combinations in duckling
history. Del Dungey, Chet Haliski,
Duke Hankinson, Bill Hawke,
Leonard Isberg, Don Mabee, Gene
Schultz and Marshall Stenstrom
are all outstanding.
Haliski Ready
Chet Haliski is back in uniform
and probably will see service to
night. However, Schultz is ten
tatively scheduled for the starting
Assignment.
Planked on top of the win col
umn with two victories and one
deadlock, Warren’s charges are de
termined to stay there. The Duck
lings previously nosed out the

Two New Coaches
Added for Phi Psis
Fred Carlson, master-mind of
the Phi Psi football squad, added
two men to his coaching staff
yesterday. A1 Bogue and John
Belding will assist Carlson
throughout the remainder of the
week, helping polish up the grid
sters for their battle with the Chi
Psis Sunday.
Manager Krantz declared his
men to be in “the best condition
possible’’ last night. When ques
tioned regarding the Chi Psis
speed plays, Krantz smiled.
“They’ll need to be fast,” he said,
“to stay out from under the feet
of our boys!”
George Williams, Chi Psi men
tor, is confident as ever of victory
for the lodgers. Yesterday he re
marked on the Phi Psi's chances as
follows, “If those guys had any
thing, I might worry a little. You
don't see me worrying, do you?”
Coach Carlson, Phi Psi brain
trust, laid down the rules last
night, saying, “If any of my men
are out after three Sunday morn
ing, they’ll not be in the game.
