DUCK \ TRACKS I ■nmmiiDRminiinNmmniuinmiinmimuiinmmMiiimimimiimiimmimiiiiinii By ELBERT HAWKINS What? No forty-hour week.? A little incident in the Pitts burgh-Wisconsin game gives us some fruit for thought—some ripe fruit. The Panthers, who do most of their traveling to pay dirt by land rather than air, had just pushed over a touchdown. And Bill Dad dio, senior end and all-American candidate, was preparing to boot over the extra point. One of the Pitt linemen glared at his opponent and exclaimed: “I’ll bet a dime he kicks it.” “Pm sorry,” apologized the pas sive Wisconsin opponent, “w'e don’t get paid.” California or Southern Califor nia? Take your choice, flip a coin, or consult the neighborhood Ouija board. Hobby Hobson, in his wander ings as -o-chief scout for Tex Oli ver, has looked them both over, end crystal gazes that Stub Alli son’s Golden Bears of California will lose in a close one. "Too many competent reserves,” is his reason for picking Troy. “Then too, I might be influenced,” says Scout Hobby, who saw the Trojans of Southern California horse-race over Oregon, 31 to 7, while happening to watch the Bears when they were hard pressed to beat Washington’s cast about Huskies, 14 to 7. Co-scout Mike Mikulak is another who likes Southern California. Hobby and Mike both point to a long list of running, punting, and passing threats on the Howard Jones payroll. There’s Bill Sang ster, THE Mr. Grenville Landsdell, Jack Banta, Doyle Nave, Frank Swirles, Don Keller, and Ambrose Schindler, non-playing member, who run not only through or over, but around the opposition. Vic Bottari, leading scorer on the coast, carries most of Califor nia’s offensive load, not getting the help Landsdell does. Leading passer in the Cal attack in Hob son’s opinion is Tony Firpo, sub left half. Their lines are about equal, with Southern California carrying <? bit more power because of a weigl t advantage which hits over two hundred pounds. * * * Steve Belko, left half on the Idaho eleven, is a triple threater, and kicks field goals besides . . . he booted Idaho to a 9 to 7 vic tory over Utah last fall . . . Dick Trzuskowski, Idaho's most versa tile man, played tackle during his sophomore year, the coach saw him doing a hula at a dance one spring and shifted him to fullback where he got all-America mention . .. now they've got Dick at tackle ... he knows plays for practically every position, and was groomed as a possible center choice for one game Web foot Gridmen Hustle, Show Fire In Hard Scrimmage Pass Defense Stressed by Mentor Oliver; Gammon, Gebhardt, Smith, and Nicholson Throw Ball in Muddy Drill Oregon's Webfoots, hustling and charging in spirited manner once again, defied wind, drizzling rain, mud puddles, and semi-darkness yesterday to scrimmage on the practice field as Coach Tex Oliver sped preparations for Saturday’s Homecoming classic with Idaho’s winning Vandals. Railbirds, braving the elements to watch Tex’s gang work, com mented on the improvement of the Webfoots. The general concensus Hoopsters Show Mass of Talent In Fourth Drill Coach Hobson Well Satisfied Following Practice Oregon’s hoopsters entered their fourth day of practice with more spirit than yet shown. The entire squad reported and went through the routine wholeheartedly. Hobby was well pleased at the showing yesterday and thinks they should be ready for the eastern tour with in three weeks. Coach Hobson had the Lemon and Green outfit working on de fensive drills throughout the after noon. He stressed the importance of defending pivots under the bas ket. Laddie Gale, Slim Winter mute, Archie Marshik, and Bob Hardy, were drilled especially on this point. Laddie Gale displayed his famed “fake cripple shot” for the benefit of the new additions to the squad. Following this exhibi tion, six groups of four were formed to practice the defense and use of this shot. The latter part of the session was spent in the defensive maneu vers of the screen play. Hobby demonstrated the different types of screens used by their conference opponents. A mass of talent was shown when the squad went through their shooting drill. Short overhand and underhand shots were pushed up, executed through a well played defense. Preceding the practice, Hobby stated that he was particularly pleased with the way last year’s men were working. “They seem to be like a group of newcomers, all anxious to learn and ready to fight for their place on the team,” Hob by said. Scrimmages will be sched uled for the first week in Decem ber, after which the Ducks will move on to Madison Square Gar den in New York City.

Scott Ph. 297 J Deliveries was that the Ducks would return to their winning- ways Saturday if they continue to exhibit renewed drive and enthusiasm. Tiredness Gone For the first time since the Ducks returned from New York, they seemed to be enjoying the game. The tiredness seemed to be gone, and the Webfoot helmetmen were moving with alacrity. Coach Oliver kept intact the same two teams which scrimmaged against the Frosh Wednesday. Yes terday, however, the Webfoot head man scrimmaged the two teams against each other, stressing pass defense. The two elevens took turns throwing passes. For team No. 1, Ted Gebhardt and Bob Smith did the tossing, with Dave Gammon and Salem Jimmy Nichol son throwing for team No. 2. Jim Cadenasso, curly-haired cen ter, and Gebhardt were outstand ing on pass defense, both plucking off heaves by Gammon, as the two teams battled under near-game conditions. Nick Moves Jimmy Nicholson moved along the ground routes, reeling off sev eral gains on the water-and-mud blanketed field. Nicholson has been consistent in his gains around and through the line this week. Most of the ground plays were smeared at the line, however, as both forward walls charged hard and tackled viciously. In Idaho, the Webfoots will be meeting a club which definitely is one of the strongest in the northwest. The Vandals have a 13-0 decision over Oregon State and a 12-12 tie with Washington’s Huskies to their credit this year. They have only been beaten once, by UCLA, 33 to 0. Mike Mikulak, Webfoot backfield coach, sums this game up with the statement that there was not much actual differ ence between the two clubs. Last Saturday, Ted Bank's color ful squad trounced Montana, 19 to 6. r Pi Kaps, Delts Betas, SAEsTop Donut Enemies Sigma Nu, Chi Psi, Theta Chi, Sigma Lose Net Tilts , Pi Kappa Alpha, Delta Tau Delta, Beta Theta Pi, and Sigma Alpha Epsilon came out on top of the heap yesterday, after the playing of four B league intra mural volleyball games. The game between Canard club and Sigma Chi was postponed until later in the season. The Pi Kaps' and Sigma Nu fur nished the only three-frame match of the day. Sigma Nu nosed their adversaries out in the first, 15 to 13. Making their bid in the second game, the Pi Kaps won, 15 to 10. Their hopes were in vain, however, as the Sigma Nus copped the last, 15 to 9. The Delts slipped over Chi Psi, 15 to 4, in the first set-to, and 15 to 7 in the last. The Betas shattered a hapless Theta Chi out fit in succession, 15 to 2, and 15 to 3. The SAEs submerged Sigma hall twice, 15 to 5, and 15 to 1. Canard’s B team beat the A team in a house scrimmage, as their game with Sigma Chi was postponed. Lineups: Pi Kappa Alpha: Cary, Gassman, Didak, Kankin, Coin best, and Dud ley. Sigma Nu: Van Dusen, Ehlers, Keenan. Faneher, Peterson, Car ney, Dungan, and Battleson.

Betas, Kappa Sigs Divide Points In Plag tor Golf Title D. Werschkul Ties Peterson; Huy eke All Square Threatening rain failed to dam pen the brilliancy of play in Wed nesday’s lead-off matches in the intramural golf championships be tween Kappa Sigma and Beta The ta Pi, but a downpour did halt the first foursome at the end of nine holes. Touring the incoming nine in par figures, Clare Peterson, Kappa Sig, and Dick Werschkul, Beta, halved the match and garnered a half-point apiece for their teams. In No. 2 position Ade Huycke. Kappa Sig, and Beta’s Earl Fort miller halved their nine and left the match at one point for each. The Peterson-Werschkul match was an avalanche of pars and birdies. Peterson won the opening hole but lost his lead on the third when Werschkul was in with a birdie four. The fourth and fifth were halved in par figures, but Werschkul went one up on the sixth with another birdie. Peter son squared the match again with par figures on the 240-yard sev enth. With birdies on the egihth and pars on the ninth, they end ed the match all square. The Huyche-Fortmiller affair was a closely contested match. Both men played sparkling golf at moments but had faulty approach es and three putted on several greens to come in with 40s, five over par. I At 2:00 o’clock today, Peterson and Werschkul along with Hv.yche and Fortmiller will continue their match. The other foursome will pit Don Cawley and Bob Engelke, Kappa Sigs, against Hal Duden and Ike Wintermute, Betas. scores: Par 445 344 353—35 Peterson .545 344 343—35 Werschkul .644 343 443—35 Huyche .556 434 454—40 Fortmiller .655 344 445—40 Results of Semi-Final Matches Beta Theta Pi Pts.

Jack is equally adept at basket ball, football, and jumping, accord ing to Bill Hayward. . Forgotten Men— ltlt1IKt$)lnilll1llllllllllllllllltlHt'lllll}l!!l!lll!lllll!ttllllllll!ll!ll!l!lllltllllllllllilflllliin By ABNIE MILLSTEIN Ed Thomas, the Oregon Webfoot football manager, firmly believes that the Lemon and Green have about the best team in the con ference. “All they need is the pro per breaks and they would go a long way.” This SAE boy has been with the team three years and has watched the gang go through their paces. Gebhardt and Walden are the most conscientious ball players on the squad, according to Eddie. After his visit to J>Jew York City, Ed claims that the Oregon gals are top3. By the way all five-foot threa-inch brunette girls, weighing in the vicinity of 115 pounds, should get in touch with Mr. Thomas. That’s the way he likes them, and adds that they must possess sweet personalities. For the girls’ information, Ed stands 5:11 and looks all right. Wait Awhile Just give him about two weeks to catch up on his studies, and then Ed( will welcome all calls, He pinned a girl about a year ago, and since then has been on the lookout. He aspires to be a travel ing salesman, and is preparing for it by taking business administra tion. The night clubs in New York took most of his spending money, which he claims hit a new peak. Varsitg Harriers Eye Team Places Oregon's varsity cross country runners are continuing to train earnestly for the Pacific coast in tercollegiate cross country run which will be held the day before Thanksgiving. The favorites are hanging on to their positions in true to form style. Kirman Storli has showed up best, closely followed by veterans Don Barker, Jim Schriver, and Bob Mitchell, Galen Morey and Hugh Simpson, new members on the squad, have been staging a dog fight for the fifth spot. Right behind these boys is Don Tower, who has been doing well in recent practice runs. Tower and Ken Leatherman are expected to be distinct threats to the leaders in the big event. A few members of the team are going to Portland today with the intention of testing their ability over the new Hill cross country course. Among those making the trip are Storli, Schriver, and Mit chell.
