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

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.

Washington, Strode,
Hirshon Big Three
On Visiting Team
Los Angeles, Sept. 29.—Hoping
for a dry field and a chance to open
up with their aerial attack, thirty
six UCLA football players left
Wednesday night for Eugene, Ore
gon, to meet University of Oregon,
Saturday, in. the chase for posi
tion in final Pacific Coast confer
ence standings.
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.
Were Eighth
The Bruins were the eighth most
effective passing team in the coun
try and had hoped to toss even more
this season but were limited in their
