«■ Anse Cornell, the “Little Giant”
of the McArthur athletic front Is
virtually beaming these days, and
the reason is obvious—it’s that 7-7
fie with Southern Cal.
‘ To Anse, who has quite a time
Keeping Oregon athletics on a
tVorking basis, that tie was heaven
sent manna. A government allo
cation couldn’t have been much
sweeter. In short that tie, to Anse,
meant increased attendance at the
Stanford game in Portland and
following contests. What’s more, it
acted like a salve on his personal
feelings.
- As an Oregon athlete more than
g. few years back, Anse was a whiz,
and he hated to lose. He still does.
Especially to Southern Cal which
Jong has been a particular and very
eharp thorn in the bush.
* Give Anse a megaphone, and one
will get you two that he would
Join the rest of Oregon’s natives in
felling “yah, yah” at a few of
these Cal scoffers.
• * *
’ That Southern Cal affair was
-just one of the bumps in the rocky
foad Oregon’s footballers have to
travel this year. Stanford and Cali
fornia, two more of the touted
California "big four,” are just
jihead. Then Gonzaga, UCLA,
■Washington State, Oregon State,
and Washington.
And as fur as the Oregon foot
ballers are concerned, H. C. is past
■history. Now it’s time to get tough
'/or Stanford. Maybe that would be
'a good slogan for all the Oregon
footer to adopt . . . “Get Tough
for Stanford.”
* »!« #
' John Warren, Oregon’s portly
•frosh coach, will have plenty of
-help on the field this year. He has
|two assistants, Eric Waldorf, Jef
-ferson high of Portland’s “miracle
-man,” and Joe Huston, an all-coast
•Oregon guard of two years ago.
- It’s a bit unusual for Honest
•John, who is a bear for work, to
•have so many aides, but he’ll be
^able to use them, judging by the
-looks of all the burly frosh on
-hand. They’re plenty big, and they
•look like a bumper crop. At least
'they come from far-flung parts of
the U. S., some of them. From
.Portland’s prep rosters also comes
"a big representation of 11 men.

Freshmen Out
By KAY FOSTER
Coach Hobby Hobson was greet*
ed by 29 varsity aspirants to his
1940 national basketball cham
pionship defenders at the physical
education building yesterday after
noon. A later meeting brought out
no less than thirty-six frosh can
didates for a place on the fresh
man team.
Of the varsity material, eight
are from last years’ varsity, a like
number are transfers, four are up
from last season’s frosh, two from
previous frosh teams, and five are
listed as from Eugene. John Dick,
Red McNeely, Earl Sandness, and
Matt Pavalunas head the returning
lcttermen.
Only One Month
October 30 was set as the open
ing day of practice for the varsity
candidates, giving them one month
to make the traveling squad of 11
that will leave for the east Decem
ber 11. Eligibility and scholarship
rules were discussed by Hobson, as
were problems of equipment.
The successful eastern trip
brought out a number of new faces
who are anxious to make the tra
veling squad. Winning a national
championship apparently m a d e
Oregon the melting pot for future
busketball greats.
In the freshman turnout, Eugene
claimed only two, Portland nine,
Washington three, California three,
and the rest of the 36 from all
parts of Oregon. Five came down
in a body frohi Jefferson high in
Portland, and Astoria, home of the
‘‘famous Finns,” brought three.
Frosh practice starts next Mon
day, October 9, at 4:30 in McAr
thur court, for all those who might
be interested in first year basket
ball. Cogch Hobson liimaelf will
take charge of the players, teach

are asked to bring their own equip
ment.

Stop Albert! Stop Kmctovich!
Stop Groves! Thut was the cry of
Oregon’s footlrall team as they
worked out in preparation for a
tough battle with Stanford’s In
dians this Saturday at Multnomah
field in Portland.
In the Webfoots’ second secret
practice in as many afternoons Ore
gon’s first team was on the defen
sive against a "Stanford” team
made up of second stringers. Ore
gon State stopped the Indian team
cold in Palo Alto last Saturday by
stopping the three aforementioned
Stanford players, and Coach Tex
Oliver is attempting to profit by
their example.
Albert Sensational
Frankie Albert is Stanford’s most
sensational player. He is very fast,
a good kicker, good blocker, and
dangerous punt receiver. Kmeto
vich, like Albert, a left half, is the
fastest man on the Stanford squad.
Groves, a fullback, is the best all
round man on the team. He kicks,
passes, runs, blocks, and is an ex
cellent pass receiver.
In Tuesday’s scrimmage, Steve
Anderson and Don Mabee acted as
spearheads of Stanford's attack,
with both looking very good in both
passing and running.
Dyer Plays
Missing from Oregon’s string
v/ere Denny Donovan, brilliant
Irish signal-caller and only expe
rienced quarterback on the team,
who is recuperating from leg injur
ies, and Bob Blenkinsop, end, who
fractured his arm in the opening
quarter of the USC game and who
will be out for the remainder of the
season.
Replacing Donovan was Roy Dy
er, hard-driving sophomore from
Benc\, who though inexperienced
looks like a comer. Hymie Harris
was attempting to fill Blenkinsop’s
shoes at left end. Harris is also a
sophomore, his main fort being de
fensive play.
Especially feared by Oregon's
board of strategy is the left side of
Stanford's line, consisting of Graff,
Anderson, and Poole, all veterans
Anderson, giant tackle from Port
land, is being mentioned for all
coast honors, while Graff, an end,
and Poole, a running guard, are
both fast, rugged, and clever.
All-Campus
Sports on Tap
Competition will begin next
week to determine the all-campus
fall intramural champions of ten
nis, golf, pingpong, handball, and
bowling. Singles and doubles
matches will be played in all sports
but I he latter.
This is the first year that the
intramural sports department has
offered an award in bowling. In
creasing campus interest in the
sport has caused Roland Dickie,
head of intramurals, to put it on
the fall activity list. All contests
will be played on the alleys of the

Waldorf, Corley
Signed to Succeed
Herb Colwell
Two football coaches, added to
Oregon’s athletic staff recently,
will contribute their forces to the
cause of boxing and wrestling for
the coming year.
Vaughn Corley, new line coach
whose well-drilled line held South
ern California’s great team to a
7-7 tie, will handle the team.
Eric Waldorf, assistant freshman
football coach, will give the funda
mentals to the wrestling team. The
two new coaches replace Herb Col
well, boxing and wrestling coach of
last year.
Both Experienced
Corley comes to Oregon with an
excellent record as both line coach
and bcxing coach. He was at New
Mexico State six years. Before that,
he coached four years in high school.
Corley boxed three years as heavy
weight at Texas Tech.
Waldorf came to Oregon to as
sist John Warren with freshman
football and to gain a master’s de
gree. He was head football coach
at Jefferson high school in Port
land for 11 years. Jefferson's Dem
ocrats are noted for their consist
ently well-coached football teams.
Corley Heads Boxers
Waldorf wrestled four years for
Washington State. He was captain
of the team and wrestled as a light
heavyweight. He coached wrestling
two years at Jefferson.
Several boxers and wrestlers on
the campus will form a. nucleus of
the two teams. With a coach for
each team, there will be more of a
distinction between the two teams
than in the past.
Jim Bailey, Jack Fruit, Merle
Hanscom, Harve McKee, Cam Col
lier, and George Warner form the
list of veterans and sophomores on
the boxing team.
Glenn Carroll, Mort Meyers, Jim
Mountain, Burt Dake, and Wendell
Haley complete the roster of veter
an wrestlers.
Eugene Recreation hall, and indi
viduals competing will pay the
usual costs of games played. The
winners will be decided by the
highest total score at the end of
two games.
Last fall's intramural sports
champions were as follows: ten
nis (singles), John Sherman: ten
nis (doubles), McEachern and Sil
verwood; golf (singles), Earl Fort
miller: golf (doubles), Hal Duden
and Fortmiller; ping pong (sin
gles). Eddie Hearn; ping pong (dou
bles), Sherman and Anderson;
handball (singles, Bob Parke;
handball (doubles), George Corey

Session
Blocking and tackling were the
order of the day yesterday after
noon as Honest John Warren,
freshman mentor, guided 58 foot
ball hopefuls through a strenuous
drill in gridiron fundamentals.
Oregon’s future varsity stars
were divided into three groups and
sent through their paces by War
ren and his two assistants, Eric
Waldorf, former Jefferson high of
Portland coach, and Joe Huston,
ex-University player. The session
lasted two hours and was topped
by a light scrimmage between
picked squads.
John Mum
Honest John refused to comment
Tf VVM*VW%»WJ y www
on team prospects this early in the
season but records show a bumper
crop of ex-high school stars in the
field. Included in the list of players
are 22 out-of-state prospects. Elev
en are from Portland schools, and
25 from other Oregon towns.
Shining light on the freshman
squad so far has been Don Shep
hard of White Bear, Minnesota..
His backfield work labels him as
strong varsity material for next
season. Two California boys, Ray
Gennette and Walt Kaplan, San
Francisco, have also shown up well
as have John Stromberg, Seattle;
Lloyd LeClair, Gold Beach; Steve
Bodner, Eugene; John Bjork, As
toria; and Roy Ell, Dick Stanton,
and Ed Eivers, Portland.
Rooks First
Opening contest of the season
for the frosh eleven will be played
in Portland, October 13, against
the OSC rooks. That leaves less
than two weeks in which to round
a starting team into shape.

schedule will be played October 28
