*»■ Perhaps you wondered . . .
Tex Oliver is credited with in
troducing something new to the
Northwest. It’3 part of the ‘‘Oli
ver Twist,” namely the policy of
r directing his grid forces during
the first half of ball games from
the press box high above the field.
^Instructions are carried by phone
to the Oregon bench.
But there came a change.
Tex trapsed to the press coop
to watch his men beat Washing- j
ton State and UCLA. Then came
their 7,000-mile road trek and de
feats by Stanford and Fordham.
Against Southern California the
idea still prevailed. And the Web
foots took their third licking.
Tex’s policy, which reminds one 1
,—not quite—of a mother rearing |
'her children by proxy, was aban-1
doned against Idaho, and Oregon
won. It was his first departure
from the press coop idea since he
startled the natives in Arizona
with it several falls ago. Against
California, he spent another 60
minutes on the bench, and says
he’ll probrt’fly be there against
Washington and Oregon State.
Why the change ? The answer,
and there is one, can’t be gleaned
from Tex Oliver until after the
season ends.
Coach Oliver isn’t worried much
about beatirif Washington. He’s
worried more about getting
enough cripples back into uniform
to make a team. If Tex gets 11
healthy non-limping specimens on
the Multnomah grid Saturday,
then lie says Oregon’s jinx on
Washington might come in handy
toward winning.
He yesterday named a starting
lineup, for instance: Hank Nilsen
at quarterback, IF Vie Kcginato1
at end, IF, und so on.
What worries him most? That
was so easy for the head man,
“When they’ve got the ball.” Se
riously though: “One of our great
est troubles . . . we haven’t gone
in to rush the passer . . . haven't
tackled him before he throws the
ball.”
Coach Oliver, who stood by oth
er coaches at the season’s start in
picking Washington as one of the
conference's three toughest teams,
pointed out that Jimmie Phelan
still packs a wealth of potential
power. Phelan himself picked
Washington to finish thir.’i and
Oregon seventh; thus: Stanford,
Southern California, Washington,
Washington S t a t e, California,
UCLA, Oregon, and Oregon State.
He stunds as one of the nation’s
few coaches who actually picked
his team to be a top-notcher.
Introducing . . .
Here’s a brief sketch of Wash
ington’s first string lineup the
one which opened against and up
set Southern California.
Left end Jay McDowell, a
sophomore of six feet two and 200
pounds. This red head’s end was
never, absolutely never, skirted
once in his freshman year. They
use him on end-arounds.
Left tackle Walt Yonkcr ■
they call him "Moose.” He’s
Washington’s second largest man
. at 218 points.
Left guard Art Means. Heavy
and fast . . . they call him "tiny"
■ and "stump."
• Center -Rudy Mucha. He’s a
brother of Assistant Coach Chuck
Mucha, former Washington all
’ coaster . . . started as a fullback.
ltight guard Steve Slivinski.
With two years of experience he's
Washington’c ace guard. An all
coaster last fall he’s called
"Gloomy Gus."
Right tackle — Bill Hi!! , . .
"Hillbilly” was out of circulation
last year with an injury, but is
booming back fast. He plays cen
ter. too.
Right end Frank Peters. Best
pass catcher on the team, and an
uncanny smeller of opponents’

Hobby Calls Closed
Practice for Today
Squad's New Men
Make Impression in
Practice
Hobby Hobson called a closed
practice session for the Oregon
basketball team today, as he sent
his charges through a series of
plays. However the Oregon men
tor was very displeased with the
recent showing of the team in their
drills. There are but four remain
ing weeks before the Lemon and
Green squad embarks for New
York City.
"The newcomers to the squad
seem to be making a better show
ing than some of last year’s men,”
Coach Hobson said at the conclu
sion of yesterday’s workout. He
was very dissatisfied with the way
in which the plays were executed,
the results of the shots, and the
ball-handling end.
Since they head for Madison
Square Garden on December 11,
Hobby feels that the team may not
be ready for the long and tedious
trip. Hobby also stated that the
team will have to do some mighty
hard plugging in order to regain
the laurels earned last year.
Practice games are scheduled
with the Multnomah athletic club,
and with that of Portland univer
sity for the latter part of this
month, preceding these assign
ments, the quintets will visit eight
states before their inaugural di
visional game with Washington
State here on January 6.

PAT SMITH
While slumping down on the
davenport of the Pi Kappa Alpha
house, Pat Smith genial end from
Shelton, Washington, divulged the
fact that he had been rated on the
Central Washington all-star team
for two years.
Smith played 140)4 minutes in
the last five frosh games—11 less
than that of Regner who filled in
at the opposite end post.
The lanky lineman let go with
a bashful grin when he mentioned
his all-star ratings in football and
his nomination to the forward spot
on the all-star team in basketball.
Six in the win column, one tie
and one loss makes up the record
of his teammates in the 1937 sched
ule when Shelton high school
cracked through with, the cham
pionship of Central Washington
league.
Besides being a forward in the
hoop sport, Smith soared over the

The Saturday coast conference spotlight will be focused on the
California-Stanford clash at Berkeley. It is then that the Bears will
have an opportunity of gaining the lead of the West coast. C?al and
Southern Cal are presently sharing the abode of first avenue of Coast
Conference Town, and the Trojans might be dispossed should the
Bears win this week. Should the
Bears lose however, the Southern
