DUCK TRACKS aMHnBiimnnmraiunmiiiniiiiuiimuiiimuimiimnmimiiiiiiiiumiiimuiir1 By Sally Mitchell Football players just weren't born with those wonderful phy siques. No sir! It takes plenty of training and practice, and even dieting to keep them in condition. Right now during spring football practice you can sec the squad out laying on their backs, doing a sev en-day bicycle race upside down, kicking pigskins around, or shov ing at some sort of a go-cart with their shoulders. And Tex Oliver says they sometimes have to diet 15 or 20 pounds off a player, and then of course, the underweights have to drink lots of cream and eat potatoes to bring up their weight so that they won t get bounced around too much. "It slows a fellow up when he’s too fat,’’ Tex said, "and then, too, he isn't such a tough customer to bump into.” It wasn’t exactly Tex’s idea to have spring football practice ex tended over such a long period of time, but in order to accommodate the Junior weekend committee, Tex and the boys agreed to put on an exhibition game. “The fellows are all anxious for the Junior weekend game,” said Vaughn Corley, line coach, "but maybe that’s because it marks the end of their spring practice.” * * * And little “Skipper Corley," Vaughn’s young son, lias certainly been brought up right, He says that with his daddy as coach even the Junction City high school team, could beat the Trojans, It would have done Honest John Warren's heart good' if he had been around to see his Duckets trim Milwaukie high yesterday. John is over in eastern Oregon now, where his mother is seriously ill. Ray Foster, freshman baseball manager, who is also the runner downer for foul balls, tries to cut down on his own footwork by shouting bits of advice like this to the Oregon hitters. “Come on, fellows, keep the ball in the park." »|t *J* =|! And at the beginning of the game, Hank Nilsen, coach, kept spurring the boys onward witii “Remember John, in eastern Ore gon. He’s counting on you.” >!‘ 4- 4s Gale “Busher' Smith makes a crack a day. Ami yesterday when his girl friend, Eleanor Steele passed by the practice field, "Bush el” who was up to bat, yelled: “Wait a minute, honey, and 1 11 put on an exhibition for you.” 4: 4* * Every member of the Oregon basketball squad whe^ made tin trip east, Howard Hobson, the trainer, and the student manager, will receive a beautiful green and yellow robe as a gift from the as sociated students. The blankets are each inscribed with the title that the boys won, and each player's name is written in yellow across one end. They're really something, and Harold Weston, proxy, is plan ning an assembly so that the blan kets can be presented in style. Jack Bryant, who was well known around the campus for las newsiness, was in town last night, having come from the Oregon normal school, at Monmouth. .Jack doesn’t like to boast, but he re cently took individual point honors in a track meet with Willamette. He won the mile and two-mile, and came in second in the half-mile for 13 points. Frosh Beat Rooks in Meet; Win 4 of 5 Events Duckling Sluggers Win, 16-1 Musselman Holds Milwaukie Hitless As Frosh Bang Out Three Homers In a good old-fashioned slugfesl Oregon’s frosh bascbal 1 nine knocked out 15 hits, including three home runs, and held Mil waukie high school to a hitless game, yesterday afternoon, on Warren’s mudflats. The final score was 16 to 1, in favor of the frosh. In the absence of Coach John Warren. Hank Nilsen cheered the boys on to victory, making only two substitutions throughout the I game. Bill Musselmann hurled a good game for the frosh, making seven strikeouts, allowing seven walks, and no hits. Homeruns were scored by Car ney, Whitman, and Austin, with Carney collecting three hits in five times at bat. The entire frosh team turned in an excellent performance, getting in some fine hits and brilliant base running, with only two fielding errors. Following is a summary of the game.

" y I Forgotten Men— iiimiiiiiiiiiimiiuiiuiiiumumiiuuutuiiiiiiuiiiiiumiimiiiumiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiium By JOSEPHINE SOAP To select a forgotten man for today’s Emerald was a difficult task, for no one man could be found who warranted this title ex clusively. It was decided finally that, since this issue is put out entirely by women, there was not i just one forgotten man, but many.; This column is therefore, dedicat ed to the former members of the' Emerald staff. The list of ex-notables is long, but there are a few who top this list of has-beens with “All-Ameri can honors.” There was Bill Pen-1 gra, the managing editor, who kept; the shack resounding with a steady slamming of drawers, as he frail-1 tieally searched for something in bis disorderly office. And then there was the news editor, Bud Jermain, who courted the associate women's editor. He is remembered as the strong silent type of man. unable to make himself heard above the confusion in the manag ing editor's office. The editor, Paul Deutschmann. stood out as a diplomat, continual ly answering the summons of the telephone to talk his way out of an entangling alliance caused by Joe Soap. Elbert Hawkins, a tall thin boy with an intellectual air about him, was the sports editor. It was his duty to keep his smooth-tongued assistant. George Pasero, away from the girls working in the news loom. He also instructed another .if his staff members, Doug Par ker, the difference between a pole \aulter and a javelin-thrower. The paper went to press under the supervision of the night editor, Lyle Nelson, a steady, hard-work ing journalist. A handsome, suave heartbreaker. Wen Brooks, wrote ; column called “Round u About." i And he did get around i Wo recall, also, a man behind the activities of the paper. George Turnbull. To him the women hon estly say “thanks" for his part in making them the great journalists they will one day be. He: Here's how. Ducks Lose to Badminton Tilt The powerful British Columbia badminton team won every game from the Oregon squad yesterday, 4 to 0. Honors were taken in both the doubles and singles by this team which has taken every vic tory in its Northwest tour. Badminton is a minor sport with them, yet this record shows that they have taken the game seriously and are out to win. The team played the Oregon squad upon the invitation of Carl Robertson. Members of the Oregon team were George Drach, Jack Newton, Jim Goodhew, and Carl Robertson. This is the first time that Oregon has entered the field of competitive badminton play. Prof's Motto —They shall not pass! Strong Duckling Relaymen Lose Only Half-Mile Event To Oregon State Babes Right in the run of things was the Duckling track team, which ran circles around the Oregon State Rooks to win four out of five events in the meet on Hayward field' yesterday. While their coach, George Stovel, and veteran mentor, Bill Hay ward looked on approvingly, the Oregon cindermen out-sprinted and out-distanced the Rooks to cop the first meet in several years. “My boys were capable of winning the entire meet,” sa’id Stovel, 1 "and if it weren’t for a bad change of batons and a few other minor mistakes, they would have. I'll get those things straightened out, Monday, though,” he smiled. With all the thrills of a varsity Ducks Will Win UWGame,Says Ford Mullen Husky Games Here Follow Their 2-Day Series With Beavers Captain Ford Mullen is confident of victory when the Ducks meet the University of Washington nine on Howe field Monday and Tues day. Mullen took over coaching ! duties yesterday while Coach Hob I by Hobson went to Portland to at ! tend a banquet. “We’re ging to win,” Mullen de clared. “In fact we have to win.” Hobson's Ducks have been work ing hard all week to be in trim for the encounter with the Huskies. At the yesterday afternoon prac tice session the boys practiced hitting and fielding. Lineups for the two games will j be about the same as in previous games, Mullen said. Bob Hardy will pitch one game and Cece Walden will probably catch. Tubby Graves’ Huskies played the Oregon State Beavers yester day and will meet them again to day. Before the Husky - Beaver ; games the Huskies held down the ! ! cellar position in the northwest conference with one win and three losses. The Ducks, the Idaho Van dals, and Washington State Cou gars, we’re in a three-way tie for i second place. The effect of the I Duck-Husky series on the north west conference standing depends largely on the outcome of the Beaver-Husky series. The two games with the Huskies are scheduled for 3 o’clock at Howe field. They will be the last chance for Duck fans to see the team in action until the Oregon State game May 27, which will conclude the home games. mnnmmmmmmrrir—if—ii—ii -i l_i lil lil IZJ LiJ liJ ITJ LTJ 12J Lil UU liJ lil l“J CU Oil CiJ [u| £] CAR SERVICE • Motor Tune Up © Valve Service • Brake Service • Battery Recharging • Electrical Service Clark Battery & Electric Co. 1042 Oak St. Phone SO isiaisiaiaiajaiaiaiaiaraisiaisiaiBEiaEiarars] A FLOAT to jBe Proud of...
