BACK TALK By EHLE REBER 7vt last the frosh are holding the reins behind the sports page and after a short deliberation decided to quit panning John Warren and give him a little of the honor he ia entitled to. John has been called everything from the horse, to the ruler of mud flats, the mud flats refer ring to the field west of the Igloo. John has a record any coach would be proud to have. In his three years as frosh coach he has \y ;n the following games: \V E Pet Football .13 4 .764 Basketball .43 6 .882 Baseball . .35 7 .833 His teams this year haven’t lost a game of any kind to the Rooks. Today it will be up to the base JbaU i am to keep that record in tact. [Warren's gridiron crew this year compared favorably to his 1936 team. Graybeal was the only dit to ence in the two teams. Hankin eoa, Mabee, Stenstrom, Haliski, Stewart, White, Schultz, and Sam vtelson were the stars on his 1937 team. On his basketball team John named Marshik, Sandness, Pippo, McNeely, and Andrews as his chief ca: taba tossers.

Ward has cleared 5 feet ICO inches and has just barely mussed 6 feet U inch. “I’d walk across the street to Vv Ik under a ladder,” said Bill Hayward, when asked whether he thought it was unlucky taking 13 men to Seattle. Boyd Brown, varsity javelin tosser, hit the 200-foot mark for the first time in his life. Brown is one of Bill’s favorites to come through in the Northwest meet today. , Bob Officer, Igloo athlete, swab Iiter, finally decided to go to Seat ilk . Bob didn’t get to go up,with the* team this year and for a while tv.is doubtful if he would go at all.

"Stoop” Canfield, giant frosh johotputter, is one of the largest men to ever turn out for that event in the school’s history. "Stoop” is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs a mere 220 pounds.

Frosh Tmcksteis _ Round Up Season In Rook Dual Meet Lack of Meet Competition to Prove Costly for Ducklings; Bob Deiz Hurts Leg in Intersquad Cinder Session Frosh cinder hopefuls began tapering off Monday in preparation for their annual dual clash with the Oregon State Rooks next Satur day afternoon on Hayward field. The Rooks, due to a better balanced squad, are favored to repeat their earlier season relays victory over the Ducklings. “Lack of competition,” says Frosh Coach Miller, “has brought about a let-down on the part of the Frosh team, the emotional results of which may cause serious handicaps to a number of the athletes.” “From past records, the Frosh appear to have only one “cinch” a let-down on the part of the Frosh team. The emotional results of | first place,” said Miller in a state-* ment last night. However, he con | cedes a possibility of as many as seven blue ribbons if all men live ! up to advance expectations. Doing a little prognosticating, the coach figures that the Rooks should win by a score of 64-58, but adds that he hopes he’s as bad a “picker” as Grant Swan, Oregon | State coach. Deiz Pulls Muscle Bob Deiz, probably the out standing sprinter in northwest frosh circles, pulled a muscle in a time trial last week, and is a j doubtful starter in the Rook meet. His place in the sprints will be filled by Dwight Nott, Bob Keen, and Leland Lewis. ; The mile race will pit two good i freshman milers in Galen Morey of the Frosh and Graf' of the Rooks. This meeting should pro vide an outstanding bit of action, possibly leading to a new record. Hugh Simpson and Howard Hall will be Morey’s team mates in this ' race. Ward Wilson will carry the iFrosh colors in the 440 against .Cooley and Thompson of the Rooks, Chuck Tripp and reformed boxer Merle Hanscom will be looked to for Frosh points. Wilson in Half In the 880 Wilson will again ap ,pear. Frosh followers are looking for a possible record-cracking per formance in this event. Wilson will be paced by fellow-Californian Charlie “Captain” Green. Chuck Tripp and Bob Belloni are listed as starters in the 2201 low hurdles, with Dwight Nott a doubtful entrant due to sprinting duties. In the high barriers. Bob Bel loni and Ed Adams of the frosh will meet Christenson and Abbott pf the Rooks. Running events will wind up with the mile relay which will find Hanscom, Griffith, Morey and Simpson representing the Frosh against a strong Rook team. Broad Jump Strong Led by state champion Ehle Re ber, the broad jump, in which five men have exceeded twenty-one ( feet, seems to be the Frosh's Ducklings Win 4 tol On Green Frosh Golf Squad Beat Rooks 4 Times In 5 Meetings The frosh golf season wound up with the Duckling squad taking four of their five matches and hav ing the distinction of being the first Oregon frosh team with a girl member. When the qualifying rounds were totaled up the list contained the names and scores of nine boys and one girl. The girl, Ruth Tustin, one time student of Olin Dutra, quali fied for the seventh position and ended up at the finish of the sea son on the team. Cliff Smith Tops The 72 qualifying .holes were played in rain, mud and hail which did not help the scores. Cliff Smith secured the top position which he held most of the season, and the position he played in all matches. Fred Davis was No. 2 man throughout the season. Chet Kel ler and Jim Hickey traded the third .and fourth position back and forth. . Kneeland Stone and Pete Kloster man varied at the fifth and sixth berth, with Ruth Tustin playing in the sixth position the last of the season. The Ducklings defeat was hand ed to them by their big brothers, the varsity. The varsity beat the frosh 20 to 7 but did not have the easy time they expected with Smith surprising the varsity by taking three points from Doc Near. The frosh nosed out Eugene high by three points to win a four-man three-way match between the Eu gene, University and Albany high schools. Fred Davis was medalist with a 73. During a challenge match with Cliff Smith, Fred Davis sank a hole in one, made an eagle and shot four birdies. The tough part of the situation was that Smith nosed him out to win the match. Rooks Defeated The Ducklings took the rooks on their own course as their first big match of the season. Ruth Tustin played a special match with Ore gon State’s Dorothy Sellers, a member of the rook squad and took three points. The frosh played a four-man three-way match at Laurelwood with the Eugene and University highs. The frosh came out on top with 21 y2 of the 36 possible points. Davis was medalist with a 71, one under par. The rooks lost to the Ducklings when they played their return match here. The frosh were only two points in the lead, 10 to 8, af ter the morning singles, but came back strong in the doubles to take the match 16 to 11. strongest event. Lee Lewis who placed in the state meet last year, and Dwight Nott round out the Frosh entrants. Reber will team with miler Hugh Simpson in an attempt to outvault Ruhkala and Caffall of the Rooks in the pole vault event. The weight events will be han dled mainly by football men who have just finished spring practice. The comparatively unknown abil ity of these men cause Coach Mil ler’s grey hairs no end. Jack Sick el, who put the shot over 50 feet in high school, is expected to come through with points in this event. He will be backed by Wally White and Allan Samuelson. White and Sickel will likewise attempt to garner points in the discus. In the javelin the Frosh look to Eino Juola to provide the opposition for Hoffman and Land force of the Rooks.
