Mike picks California . . .
“I think Southern California is a
strong- team—hut I still believe
California is the conference's best
bet,” says Mike Mikulak, who has
seen every team in the conference
with the exception of Washington
and Oregon.
*Tex Oliver’s “co-chief football
scout” saw the Trojans whip Stan
ford in Palo Alto Saturday, IS to 2.
Southern Cal, characterized by
Mike as “a smart club,” smothered
Stanford’s unsteady offense and
had possession of the ball approxi
mately 70 per cent of the time.
Podunk may lose, 7 to (i, or even
0 to 0 to Siwash, but is a winner to
the trained scout if it monopolizes
the ball two-thirds of the time.
It was a big surprise to Mike
when Idaho’s highly-touted Van
dals were whipped by UCLA, 33 to
0. He saw them thoroughly out
play Oregon State, 13 to 0, early
this season, and rated them as
UCLA’s equal (which means that
Oregon is due for a busy Home
coming).
*Duek Tracks made a grave
social error yesterday in calling
Howard Hobson Oregon’s "(chief
scout.” Friendly Mike laughingly
dubbed Hobby that nickname and
is apt to yell “Iliya chief scout” at
him from now into eternity.

Not too happy . . .
Football teams at three Coast

are having domestic troubles.
At Washington and Washington
State, two perenially top teams,
usually winners, are in the dol
drums of defeat. Jimmy Phelan’s
Huskies were rated beforehand
by other coaches than Phelan as
championship contenders. Five
games have been played, they’re
still waiting for a win, and the
wolves are howling.

Webfoots End Transcontinental Tour atStationToday
Oliver's Squad
In Good Condition
For Portland Tilt
Trojan Delegation
Is Rated Big, Fast
By Mikulak
Completing the last lap of their
transcontinental tour this morning,
Oregon's footballers will close an
other colorful chapter in the Web
foot book of grid memories and
post mortems today at 11:55 when
they arrive in Eugene.
For Oregon, the latest episode
was marked by few headlights,
and included a rather bitter twist.
An early 10 to 0 lead and a fourth
period 16 to 13 advantage held by
the Ducks ia their tussle with
Stanford were the only features
favorable to the Oregons as far as
the gridiron chapter was con
cerned.
After the Stanford deblacle
which Coach Tex Oliver’s boys
lost 27 to 16, the Webfoots shifted
their action to the East. The cli
max, a very unpleasant one for the
Webfoots, was the 26 to 0 defeat
plastered on the Ducks by Ford
ham's mighty helmet heroes.
Scouts Await Oliver
Awaiting Coach Oliver in Eu
gene are his two chief scouts, Mike
Mikulak, backfield coach; and
Howard Hobson, basketball men
tor. Both Hobson and Mikulak
have detailed scouting reports to
give the Webfoot headman.
“Iron Mike,” who has seen every
team in the conference but Wash
ington perform, scouted Southern
California Saturday, and came
back home to warn the Webfoots
of a big, fast and powerful team.
Trojan lane Strong
Mikulak reports that USC’s line
is very strong, and that the weak
est link, if a weak link is to be
noted, would be at the end posts.
Southern Cal, according to Miku
lak, also has a wealth of back
field material headed by such stars
as Bob Peoples, Phil Sangster,
Grenny Lansdell, Ollie Day, and
Mickey Anderson, the 9.6 second
man from Dean Cromwell's track
foam.
under the Howard Jones system,
the quarterback and the fullback
are the ball carriers, and the two
halfbacks are the blockers. And
despite the loss of the hard-run
ning Amby Schindler, the boy who
wrecked the Webfoots last year,
Jones has four capable speedboys
for each ball-carrying position.
The Oregon squad was termed
in good condition by Webfoot
Trainer Bob Officers when the
team stopped off at. Nebraska.

(Wrong Down) Ge tchell's Waterloo
Here’s a scene from Saturday’s same which Notre Dame won
over Carnegie Tech, 7 to 0, with the aid of Referee Johnny Getchell.
The official unwittingly caused Carnegie Tech’s signal caller to run
a ball in midfield and lose it oh fourth down when he wrongly in
formed him it was third down. Notre Dame went on to score from
there. George Muka, Tech right half, is seen making a 5-yard gain.
Warren Alters
Frosh Team for
Little Husky Tilt
Jensen Is Shifted to
Quarter; Culwell
Not in Uniform
Two changes likely to affect the I
Duckling starting lineup were an-;
nounced by Frosh Mentor Warren j
last night as lie put his squad j
through strenuous blocking and1
passing drills in preparation for
the tangle with the Washington
Babes in Seattle Saturday.
Bill Jensen, who will see action
in his home town Saturday, has
been shifted from right half to
quarterback where he will prob
ably start in place of either Steve
Fowler or Dominic Giovar.ini.
LaVerne Van Marter, Heppner
star, will probably go to right half
to take the vacancy left by Jen
sen's shift. Van Marter played an'
outstanding game in the rook tilt
at Klamath Falls.
i iicuani injured
Don Clickard, Fullback Bren
ner's understudy, suffered the only
major injury in the Southern Ore
gon tilt. He injured his knee and
it has developed an abeess which
may keep him out of the weekend
encounter.
Val Culwell, regular starting left
tackle, will be out for a week or
more with stomach trouble. Len
Surles, 200-pound tackle from
Bend, and Ed Mosiiofsky, 200
pounder from Beaverton, will fight
it out for the starting position left
vacant by Culwell.
Bob Davis, left guard, and Kay
Segale, right guard, received minor
injuries in their losing encounter
with the rooks, but are expected
to be in shape for the “Little Hus
ky" tilt.
Italics Win 20 to 0
The Washington Babes won last
year’s game by trouncing the
frosh, 20 to 0, in a very fast game
played on Multnomah field in Port
land. So far this season the frosh
have won one, tied one, and lost
one.
Doug Caven, halfback, and Bill
Brenner, fullback, according to
Warren played an outstanding
game Saturday. Brenner's kicking
was a highlight of the game, as
was Caven's 71-yanl touchdown
gallop.
John Lcovich, rook left end, was
hero of the Orange team by boot
ing the point after touchdown,
giving his team the winning
margin.
Place your orders for the Kmer
-ld now and don't miss an isruc.
Four Crack Teams
Reach Divot Semis
..Four crack teams went into the aemi-finals of the intramural golf
tournament by trouncing opponents over the weekend. Winners of
matches were Kappa Sigma, Phi Delta Theta, Beta Theta Pi, and Phi
Gamma Delta.
Outstanding score card turned in was that of the Beta Theta Pi
team. R. Werschkul chopped three strokes off par with a 69, E.
Fortmiller had a 73, and Hal Duden, the tournament's most consistent
shot thus far, turned in a 75.
Semi-final matches will be played this week, with the Betas seem

an interesting piece of journalism,
it contains only half-truths.
“It is my belief that a very good
percentage of students in college
have as their main interest the
idea to acquire learning, to achieve
self development. They want to
think about life and about the

! Bud’s Column
definitely masculine
IF YOU are going to hoist a raucous stein to dear old
Oregon, that’s one thing. If you are going to bend an elegant
elbow! with the best, that’s another thing. There’s no reason
for overdoing the pomp and circumstance when you can hew
to the simple, straightforward line and still reek with good
taste. Throughout this weekly column you will find light
references to many subjects .... Read them and settle those
ticklish fashion and social problems.
DON'T LET anyone tell you that the college man scorns
accepted stylings, and lets his imagination choose his wardrobe.
It seems that wide-awake college men are still spending pa’s
dough on single breasted odd jackets. Campus wear has a
country tang and the odd jackets are very good. They are
found mostly in single breasted, notch lapel, with three buttons
.... cloth — rough tweed, cheviot, or flannel. Slacks often
match the jacket or are plain grey flannel. . . . “Duck” into
JOE RICHARDS and see what we arc talking about, and while
you are looking, ask about JOE’S new Oregon green sport
jacket with white leather sleeves. It’s absolutely pa-leanty
nice!!! The jacket is wool, treated to withstand rain and con
tains leather lined pockets.
IF YOU want to hold up the bar in elegance or if you have
a heavy date in Portland this weekend, try the new three
button, notch lapel, single breasted, hopsack worsted suit in
charcoal brown, the perfect shade for these occasions and which
seems to flatter all complexions. . . . Kuppenheimer suits can be
seen at WASHBURNE'S and Ken Griffith is just the man
to show them to you. He told me this morning that he would
like to meet some more of you fellows, so drop in and tell
him BUD sent you. ... If you are sitting, a good choice would •
be a double breasted black, worsted suit with chalk stripes.
DeNEFFES have it in the British Blade style with fullness
through the chest and shoulder blades.
CLAY BAXTER, I DeNEFFES i also showed me the new
white shirt with horizontal stripe. ... As you know . . . it's
not only your suit, it's what you wear with it. BYROM and
KNEELAND have just received a new shipment of accessories.
Key chains are being worn more and more by men who know.
Belts are still used to hold our trousers up, also. Mr. Byrom
will be glad to show you a white or light colored shirt to go
with that British Blade suit we mentioned before or a tan and
brown striped shirt, starched matching collar, and a brown
and white tie to go with the single breasted, charcoal brown
suit.
F D. GREEN wants to introduce the new Fingertip,
rubberize-) raincoat for the Oregon vs. USC Portland trip.
If lines are good and it is not bulky when in use or otherwise.
1 suggest that you see "Paul D." before the winter rains set in.
P. S. BUD'S sensational suggestion of the week
It will enhance your reputation as a gentleman. . . . Upon
recognizing a girl, wait for her to acknowledge the acquain
tanceship. It's up to her to continue it or not. If you've never
tried this, try it for a month and you'll begin to realize how
popular you aren't.
