DUCK TRACKS By ELBERT HAWKINS Fame anil fortune in the person of a nice barnstorming tour to the East next season may await Coach Howard Hobson and his Lemon Yellow basketeers. That is, it may if all (joes well this winter. On paper, the end of last season found Oregon holding over mate rial second to probably only Wash ington State’s champions in the northern division. With the ex ception of Johnny Lewis, Ken Pur dy, and Hill Courtney, who wound up three years of eligibility, Hobby has every man back. Frankly, it looks like they’ll be stronger, for a bevy of outstand ing sophomores and transfers are on hand to bolster the squad strength. Monday afternoon, Coach Hobson met his varsity warriors for the first time, and from now on will work them steady. * * * Exactly a month from now, De cember 3 and 4, we’ll trot to the Igloo to watch the Webfoots ca vort in initial competition. Mult nomah club, and the Portland uni versity Pilots form the opposition. Northern division action is sched uled for a ringing start on Janu ary 7 and 8, when Oregon plays host to the champion Washington Staters. Mentor Hobson found pre-season barnstorming none too practical last fall, and consequently, the Ducks probably won’t make an other Christmas vacation trip into California. They did it last De cember, playing practically every night, and found the pace killing. Professional Chuck Taylor, the touring hoop wizard, said that all Oregon would need to get that eastern trip would be a first-class reputation. So all Hobby and his Ducks need to do is cop tbe coast title, or possibly finish a strong second in the northern division pennant chase a task which is very possible for the boys. Seven lettermen grace Oregon's present hoop squad, besides other available talent. Have Silver and Ray Jewel (seniors), and Slim W'intermute, Wally Johansen, Hob by Anet, and Huddle Gale (jun iors), comprise the list. Ford 7*tul len and Gale Smith, the two base hull infielders, who were reserves last winter, are also on hand. Boh Hardy, who transferred from Southern Oregon Normal with a high scoring average, and Floyd Klliot, sophomore transfer, from Long Iteach junior college, are a pair of lively looking candi dates. Then, too, there’s an out standing array of sophomores led by Ted Sarpolu, the Astoria all stater, John Dick, Matt I'avalun as, and others. What did Oregon do last win ter'.’ Briefly this. For one ac complishment they bout Oregon State four times in a row, and fin ished in a three-wu.\ tic for first in the northern division race.

Eddie’s smiling face is not a new one to Duck fans, who saw him capably substitute for all-American Ed Goddard here last year in Oregon's homecoming game. Eddie Is Versatile Although he weighs only 150 pounds, Eddie is the 60-minute spear Cougar Meet The Eddie Iiayne type of meat will lie hard for Oregon’s Ducks to chow Saturday. Eddie isi a true triple threat. Oregon Alumnus Works in Baltimore Spencer Carlson, Oregon alum nus, has taken a position with the government re-employment service in Baltimore, according to a letter he wrote Dr. Howard R. Taylor, head of the psychology department recently. Previously he had been a graduate assistant at the Univer sity of Minnesota. head of the Cougar offensive. He runs, passes, punts, and is the ever dangerous safety man on defense. His long passes are especially feared by Callison, who spent more than the usual amount of time on this phase of the Cougar offense. In the first defensive backfield were Jay Graybeal, safety; Ted Gebhardt and Paul Rowe, half backs; and Hank Nilsen and Den ny Brcaid, backing up the line. Switches Hacks In the other backfield Steve An derson replaced Graybeal, Arleigh Bentley went in for Paul Rowe, Bob Smith subbed for Ted Geb hardt, while Dennis O'Brien Dono van and Vern Moore replaced Breaid and Nilsen. Ronnie Husk and Joe Huston held down the guard positions with Bill Estes and Bill Foskett at the tackles. The ends were on the squad throwing passes with re serves from other positions filling in for the practice. Coach Callison announced yes i terday that neither Dale Lasselle nor Captain Tony Amato would start Saturday's game although both would probably see action. Seniors Beat Sophs In Coed Hockey, 1-0 The seniors downed the sopho mores by a score of 1-0 in a scrap py game in women’s hockey Wed nesday afternoon. The seniors put up both a good offense and defense, but the sophomores’ offense failed to click. Senior lineup: Allen RW, Clarke RI, McDonald CF, Watson LI, Slattern LW, Branthover CH.

Although the alteration of the schedule will decrease the time for : conditioning potential entrants still have time to sign up and comply Seven Beavers Crippled From Stanford Battle Oregon State to Meet Willamette Eleven This Saturday OREGON STATE COLEGE, Corvallis, Nov. 3.—Seven regulars were on the hospital list when Ore gon State's football squad started preparation this week for its an nual tussle with Willamette, to be played here on Bell field, Saturday afternoon. Most important casualty is Joe Gray, generally considered No. 1 halfback on the Pacific coast. Gray suffered a "pulled muscle” in his right leg after he had played only a short time in last Saturday's Stanford game. He will be out of play for at least two weeks. Cripples Listed Other cripples are Frank Nihil and Leon Sterling, tackles; Joe Wendlick and Don Coons, ends; Prescott Hutchins, right guard, and Elmer Kolberg, fullback. Sterling has a knee injury and the others have shoulder injuries. No practice was held Monday and when work resumed the next day Coach Stiner was visibly puz ded over just where he would start Dunked Beaver Seeks Missing Clothes, Watch Final reverbrations of the Beaver invasion of the Univer sity campus were sounding yes terday as Lee Arrington Wells, Jr,, a dunked Delta Tail Delta from Corvallis, petitioned Dean Karl for the return of a 17-jewel Waltham wrist watch, a blue sweater (with a Delt pin in the topmost button holei and black wool jacket. The articles were discarded at the Anchorage as the owner was plunged into the race on the now historic Monday of October -5. A fraternity brother of the un fortunate OSO man sought re union with a rectangular gold Hamilton watch, with gold wrist band. The dean of men assured the mourning Beaver that every ef fort is being made to collect and return scattered personal effects of the invaders. wun m2 regulations wnicn require all men to work out nine times, three of which must be on the course. Efficient System Under the somewhat complicat ed but efficient scoring system which is to be used, the organiza tion having the largest number of entrants will have the greatest op portunity of garnering house points. The team placing first man will be awarded 75 entrance points while all remaining teams who have three men finish under 21 minutes will be given 30 points. The house points w'hich pertain only to determining the number of points toward the cup will be awarded consecutively. Winners Helps Plenty For example the first place win ner is to be given 70 points, which is equal to the total number of en trants, the second man to finish will be awarded 69 points, the third 68 and so on down to the last man. In addition there will be 45 points to be divided among the teams proportionately in accord ance with their winners. The formula for finding the number of points which are to go toward the intramural cup is: the number of entrance points 175 to the team placing the first man, 30 to any other team) plus; the total number of house points divided by the greatest number of house points acquired by any one team; times 45 (the points to be divided). the task of moulding' a first-string lineup for the Willamette game. Should lie Even Willamette again has one of the I strongest small-school teams on the Pacific coast. The Bearcats al ways give Oregon State a whale of a battle and with so many Or ange regulars on the sidelines this year's game should be a very even affair. Present alternates for Oregon State's injured men are John Haek enbruck and Warren Gillis, tackles; Vernon Wedin and Dick Suther land. ends; John Watts, right guard; Ben Ell. fullback, and John Alexander, left halfback.

John Drives Frosh Eleven For EON Fray Pessimistic Mentor Girds Men Through Third Successive Arc Light Work Battling on into darkness for the third successive night, and continu ing under the Hayward field lights, “Honest John" Warren’s Ducklings wound up their warmup for the EONS argument with a long local scrimmage yesterday. The frosh grid mentor continued to drive the boys on blocking and tackling. They have shown im provement along these lines, but still lack plenty of polish. With last night marking the third straight night of scrimmage in the past week, the Ducklings are raising so much sweat it looks like the second Johnstown flood on the practice field. EONS Squad Tough | Eastern Oregon Normal has the strongest backfield combination in their history with a tough forward aggregation to complete the pic ture. The EONS have an unblem ished record for the 1937 grid sea son with only one split decision, a 19-19 deadlock with Lewiston Normal, which makes them no cinch in any dopesters language. John “Don't Call Me Sunny” Warren refuses to hand down an advance decision, but terms it an other close fracas with the laurel going to the eleven that cops the breaks. Ducklings Favored Oregon’s yearlings, out to avenge last week's trouncing at the paws of the Babes and preserve their otherwise unmarred record, are the gridmen to put your ironmen on according to the black-derbied gentlemen. The probable starting backfield for the frosh will include two for mer Portland all-stars, Leonard Isberg, Benson, at left half, and Chet Haliski, Roosevelt, at quar ter. Don Mabee, McMinnville, will answer the summons at right half, while Marshall Stenstrom from the Seattle trio will plank his cleats in the fullback berth. In the front rank, the battle scarred veterans will probably per form their regular duties. This lineup will be Bob Hendershott, left end; Bob Creager, left tackle; Worthy Blaisdell, left guard; A1 Saniuelson, center; Barney Reams, right guard; Jim Stuart, right tackle; Norm Conaway, right end. Dean Jewell Speaks To Montana Group Dean J. R Jewell of the Univer sity school of education last week spoke at the Montana State Teach ers' association, while making con tacts with graduate students in education there. The University of Montana, said Dean Jewell, offers only a master’s degree in education. For this rea son Montana people regard the University of Oregon as a regional institution, and every year there has been at least one graduate stu dent from Montana studying at Oregon. Ping Pong Tourney Enters Third Round Varsity Swimmers Candidates for positions on the varsity swimming team will meet at the new pool today at 4 p.m., Coach Mike Hoyman an nounced yesterday. Freshman swimmers will meet at the pool Monday at 5 o’clock. Varsity swimmers will start practice tonight. Six A Volleyball Teams Advance In Intramural Betas, SAEs, Phi PsL SPEs, Sigma Chis, Theta Chis Win Six teams chalked up victories in volleyball last night as the A league finished its schedule for the week. B league teams will occupy the spotlight starting tomorrow night. The SAEs and the Beta Theta Pi sextet looked the most impres sive in last night’s encounters. The Beta outfit showed class and team work to spare as they cleaned a sadly outclassed team of Pi Kaps by a 15-4, 15-2 score. SAE found the Omega hall team much to their liking meanwhile, and ran up a 15-1, 15-3 score. Sigma Chi showed little less class in running up a 15-4, 15-6 score over the Can ard club. Theta Chis Bounce Back Theta Chi, rebounding from their trouncing last week at the hands of the Phi Sigs, dropped the first game of their series with Sherry hall 15-8, before cinching the match by a 15-9, 15-10 score. Phi Psi continued their winning ways by taking a two out of three game match from Gamma hall. Loose playing by the Gamma team contributed to the defeat. The j scores were 15-7, 8-15, and 15-111 for the Phi Psis. SPEs Win The SPEs chalked up their sec- I ond victory in as many games as they won the closest game of the day from a hard fighting band of j ATOs. The teams split the first j two games by a 15-11 score, with the SPEs winning out in the third game, 15 to 13. B league games scheduled for tomorrow night are: Gamma hall vs. Chi Psi, and Phi Gamma Delta vs. Omega hall at 4 o’clock; SPE vs. Sigma Alpha Mu, and Sherry Ross hall vs. Delta Tau Delta at 4:40; Comets vs. Phi Psi, and Beta Theta Pi vs. Sigma Chi at 5:20. Hobson Stresses Fundamentals In Casaba Session Quartet of Hoopsters Clinch Temporary Berths on Squad Emphasizing the importance of fundamentals in basketball, Coach Howard Hobson again yesterday devoted most of the varsity bas ketball practice to dribbling, stop ping and .starting, and passing and guarding. Several prospects have shown enough ability in practices to be given, at least temporarily, a place on the squad. These players are John Die, Ted Sarpola, Bob Hardy, and Matt Pavalunas. These four players, and the keight lettermen and reserves of last year make up all but three positions on the reg ular squad. However, Coach Hobson told the players that no position on the team was absolutely certain, and if prospects show up better, they will naturally be given preference. Among the likely looking play ers who are expected to fill the other three positions and to give those already on the squad a good run are Jake Fisher, Stan Short, Jimmy Jones, “Wimpy” Quinn. Floyd Elliot. Paul Jackson, and Burton Boroughs. Paddle artists entered in the all ;ampus ping pong tournament swung into the third round this week with a few advancing into the quarter finals by virtue of some timely defaults. Three of last year’s champions have survived early round play in the table tennis tourney which in cluded some upsets and mistakes. Kupfer Triumphs Upon learning that he had been defeated in the second round by default, Wally Kupfer, winter term singles champ, contacted Harold P’aunt and proceeded to adminis ter a 21-10, 21-18 drubbing to the gentleman. The major upset of the tourney came when Eddie Hearn defeated Bob Street. Pete Klonoff and Dick Sanville entered the quarter finals, Klonoff defeating Karl Mann and Sanville advancing via the gift route when Glen Eaton defaulted. Winners in the second round were ChuckErwin. Bob Horning, W. Ruscman, Eddie Hearn, Wally Kupfer, Bill Rasmussen, Roland Rodman, John Dwyer, Bill McKen na, Cliff Smith, and Les Weschkul. Malcom Waltman and Ed Stanton have yet to complete their match. All-Campus Golf Mix Is In Quarter-Finals Eight Divot - Diggers Grab Third Round Wins in Tourney The all-campus golf tournament advanced into the quarter finals with eight ambitious stick-swing ers annexing victories over their opponents. Ken Shipley out-pointed Bob Street, Bob Goodwin defeated Henry Moretty, Richard Wersch kul came out on top of Cliff Smith, Bob Speer beat Kersey Elridge, Harold Weston won from Harry Holloway, Fred Davis won by de fault from Malcolm Waltman, and Ken Omlid out-swung John Nel son. In the doubles tournament Rich ard Werschkul and Hal Duden de feated Francis Bell and Bob Street to advance to the finals.
