DUCK TRACKS :niRniinniwiniiiimiiiniiiiiniHh!ii!iiiiiimiHfimiiniiti[iiimiiiitiiiiiiiniiiiHiuii!i!i By ELBERT HAWKINS A UCLA football team which whipped Oregon last fall, In Los Angeles, 26 to 13, with one Kenny Washington scintillating, cornea north this week-end for chapter two In the book of “The Oliver Twist." Do they come as underdogs ? No, by their own admission. “The prin cipal difference between the Bruins of 1938 and those of preceding years is versatility In the backfield,” says advance publicity. The same black flash, Kenny Washington, comes again, and he has the help of such tossers as Char lie Fenenbock, Merle Harris, and Warren Haslam. And if you don’t think Kenny Washington’s dangerous right hand tossing isn’t respected, just ask Tex Oliver. Tex also says there’s “plenty of danger any time a pass Is thrown.” # * * Hayward field may see some thing new in the way of defenses Saturday afternoon from this heads up Bruin team of Coach Bill Spauld ing’s. Against Iowa last week - which UCLA won handily — they cast precedent to the winds and used a five-man line. They used the more orthodox six downfield though, and also when Iowa was dangerously near the goal line. Another thing Spaulding is apt to spring is the spread play, seldom seen in college games. Oliver used one against Washington State. In Spaulding’s “pet,’’ one or both ends and one or both halves are spread wide, giving the back an option of either running or passing. A little bit of the “Oliver Twist’’ is Tex’s winning complex . . . hang ing in the Oregon dressing room are signs saying: “Oregon Fights to Win" . . . “Prepare to Win” . . . “Oregon Fights” ... “11 Men on Ev ery Play” . . . the Ducks can’t help (Please turn to page three) Oregon, UCLA Prepare for Saturday’s Battle Oliver, Webfoots Plot Reception For UCLA Power Oregon Eleven Uses Locked Gates for Crucial Affair With the details of a planned re ception for Mr. Kenny Washing ton, the Bruins’ ace pigskin flipper, nearly completed, Coach Gerald A. (Tex) Oliver turned his Webfoots' attention to offensive tactics Thurs day afternoon in final preparation for Saturday’s crucial clash witn the University of California at Los Angeles on Hayward field. All week the spirited Webfoots have worked on defensive maneu vers mapped by Oliver and designed to stop the passing threat of Messrs. Washington, the negro speedboy; Charley Fenenbock and Dale Gil more—in fact, the whole UCLA backfield squad. Locked Gates But Thursday, Oliver called it de fensive quits and stressed offense, first on the practice field back of the Igloo and later behind locked gates on Hayward field. Today, the Ducks wind up prep aration with a light workout. UCLA’s safari, headed by William H. (Bill) Spaulding, arrived in Eu gene at 3:45 o’clock this morning. The Bruins will also stage a light drill to rid themselves of “train legs.” Hank Nilsen, hard-blocking As torian, returned to his quarterback post yesterday after resting a few days following a head injury suf fered in last Saturday’s 10-2 win over Washington State. Only Web foot definitely out of the UCLA mix is Bill Rach, third-string full back, who •injured his knee in prac tice Monday. Since Lefty Bob Smith’s shift to fullback to recompense for the loss of Rach, the big boy from Medford has taken to his new responsibilities with such ability that his move now seems to be permanent.

Louis Kyzivat, second string left guard', injured last week in the Iowa game, which the Bruins won by a score of 27 to 3, will not make the trip. John Zaby, heretofore listed at fullback, will be shifted to the berth. Close attention to line work has! occupied the Westwood coaching staff following the none-too-en couraging showing of the forward wall against the Hawkeyes. How ever, no shakeup is anticipated and the forwards will probably start as follows: Brown, left end; Wyrick, left tackle; Co-Captain Pfeiffer, left guard; Ryland, center; Som mers, right guard; Zarubica, right tackle, and Strode, right end. Hir shon, quarterback; Washington, left half; Gilmore or Harris, right half, and Overlin or Haslam, full back, will round out the lineup.
