By GEORGE PASERO
Co-Sports Editor
Oregon Daily Emerald
Everywhere I go on the campus,
people ask me one question: “What
are you going to say about that
Oregon football team, now?”
Well, I could say many things. 1
could say the quarterbacking wasn't
the best. I could say the line play
was sloppy. And I could say it
was a rather sorry afternoon.
But I won’t. Rather, I will say
those Oregon kids had played, on
successive Saturdays, three of the
toughest teams in the nation. They
were battered and a bit weary,
and a letdown was a natural re
action.
It’s too bad the Wobfoots lost,
but maybe the defeat will cause
them to be in a fierce frame of
mind when they tackle the Uclans
at Los Angeles this Saturday.
They’ll need to be, for it will take
a hard-blocking, fierce tackling,
and alert ball club to stop the
Bruins and their colored aces,
Jackie Robinson and Kenny Wash
ington.
One thing more. I'm not throw
ing in the towel yet, like more
than one Oregon follower is do
ing. Too much of this has happen
ed in the past.
The Oregon boys and Tex Oliver
deserve plaudits for stopping the
Cal “Big Three’’, and they deserve
a chance to come back. After all,
they still ride the top of the coast
conference standings with 1.000
per cent.
This UCLA affair is definitely
“Big Game”, despite the Oregon
defeat. Right now that Oregon
team needs plenty of support, now
when they are ready to go south
to the lair of the Bruin.
If they win, and that's not im
probable, those who hopped off the
Oregon bandwagon will be eager
to climb back. How many are
sticking, that's what I want to
know. * * *
Up from Compton jaysee, the
school ihai produced Oregon’s sen
sational Buck Berry, Dick Horne,
and Jim Harris, come two more
athletcs. These, two, however, are
basketball players, not football
ists.
One is Vie. Townsend, a, slender
six-footer, and (lie other is llerh
Tompkins. Both have the recom
mendations of southern California
scribes.
If these two show hoop ability
comparable to the grid prowess of
Horne, Berry, and Harris, they
should be a material help to Coach
Hobson in this year’s maple court
campaign. Definitely.
Incidentally, Horne, Berry, and
Harris were members of the Comp
ton quintet along with Townsend
and Tompkins, so if Coach Hobson
should so desire, he could use al
most the entire Compton team of
last year in his 1940 hoop wars.
Providing, of course, that the three
gridmen go out for basketball.
This quintet might do all right,
too. for, according to Horne, the
Compton team finished in second
place in the southern jaysee league
last winter.
Other outstanding hoop Ira os
iers to Oregon this fall are Bill
Borcher, 6-foot, 4-inch husky from
Sacramento jaysee; Ed McGrath,
barrel-chested boy from Santa
Monica; Arba Ager, Southern Ore
gon Normal athlete; and Hank
Anderson, 6-foot, 6-inch Eastern
Oregon Normal point-scorer.

Cream of the intramural tennis
crop matched skill Tuesday after
noon. As the championship round
got under the steam, the SAE net
crew crowded Beta from the run-,
ning with 2-to-l victory. A doubles
match in the Fiji-Pi Kap match
contest remains to decide which
outfit will advance into the second
bracket.
SAE and Beta played close
matches with victory not in the
bag for the SAEs until the very
last point. Closest match saw Car
dinal and Mamie (SAE) slip one
over on Corey and Robertson
(Beta), (1-2, 3-0, 0-1. In the only
Beta triumph, Dent and Clabaugh
gave Boone and Tugman a beat

Coaching Set
For Ringmen
Two for one is good odds any
day. That is the position the Ore

finds itself.
instead of one coach of the box
ing and wrestling team, the Web
foots will have two. Vaughn Cor
ley, football line eoaeh. will handle
the glove tossers. Knc Waldorf,
graduate assistant in I'K, will
eoaeh the mat artists.
Corley boxed three years as
heavyweight at Texas Tech. Wal
dorf wrestled three years at Wash
ington State and was captain of
the team as light heavyweight.
With the announcement that two
experienced coaches would lead
the teams, new talent began com

behind them and so are in a far
different mood, a fighting mood
this time.
UCLAs Have Stars
Their opponents boast as for
midable an array of stars as any
team Oregon has met this year. In
Kenny Washington and Jack Rob
inson the Bruins have probably the
two fastest negro backs in the
country. Washington personally
scored all three of his team's
touchdowns against Montana last
Saturday.
The only common foe of the two
teams is Stanford. Oregon out
played the Indians in almost every
department and won, 10 to 0.
UCLA came from behind in a daz
zling bit of offensive punch to tie
the Redskins, 14 to 14, a week
later. Stanford outplayed the
Bruins, yet they couldn’t stop the
dark “shadows.”
Berry Shines
Oliver has had his charges spend
their time this week in drilling
against these demon speedsters.
Fleet Don Mabee has keen ‘‘Jack
Robinson,” and Steve Anderson
portrayed the part of “Kenny
Washington” against the first
stringers. “Jack” got away several
times, until the boys cracked down,
and made him sorry he was so fast. !
Buck Berry busted up most of the
plays around his side of the line. |
Berry found himself in a new j
position in the backfield last night,
1 as a fullback subbing for Frank
| Emmons, just in case something
happens to Frank in the game Sat
urday. Bull Stenstrom is definitely
out of the lineup with a sprained
ankle and bad elbow.
Refers Injured
Another on the injured list is
Merle Peters, who played only
three minutes against the Bulldogs
last weekend. lie has been having
trouble with his side, but has been
in suit. Ernie Robertson had a day
of rest yesterday, with little Bud
Nestor doing well in his place in
1 the line.
On the second team Ben Isberg
is at full, with Roy Dyer at one
half, and Bob Smith and Chet
lialiski at half and quarter. Bill
Regner is back with the second
bunch, while Hymie Harris holds
down the too berth at left end.
No List Issued
Although Coach Oliver did not
issue a traveling squad at press
time, in all probability it will be
nearly the same as the d-1 men who
went to lie! keley.
It's Vaughn Corley's turn to
scout this time, so he will prob
ably stay here to take in the Wash
ington State-Oregon State game
to be played at Corvallis.
The probable traveling squad
follows:
Steve Anderson, John Kerry, Jim
Cadenasso, Bob I'avis, Denny
Donovan, Hoy Dyer, Frank Km

Jim Harris. Bill Hawke, Bob Hen

Taking the role of UCLA’s Jackie Kobinson, Reserve Halfback Don

several long gains against the varsity on off-tackle plays and end
sweeps.

On the fifth consecutive Saturday, Oregon plays the undefeated

This will be the fourth California team in five weeks to face the Ducks.

By LKN BALLIF
Sporting one of the best reputa
tions for hard hitting, fast charg
ing guards Portland has to offer,
Neil Baumgardner is regarded as
one of Coaeli John Warren’s "nug
gets” on the freshman football
team this year.
Neil spent his first two years at
Jefferson high school playing quar
terback, but earned all-city hon
ors his senior year at guard. One
of Coach Warren’s first moves
was to shift Baumgardner back to
lirst string quarterback.
Quarterback Now
Like his high school teammates,
Roy Ell and Ralph Davis, Neil had
the best of the western colleges to
choose from, casting aside offers
from larger California schools to
come to Oregon.
Under the present Oregon set-up,
the quarterback departs from the
traditional ball-carrier’s job, and
is cast in the role of workhorse -
the fellow who calls signals and
does the bulk of the backfield as
signments. This will be the hand
some, 185-pound Portlander's job
for the next four years.
Young Baumgardner has elected
not only to play football but to
also tackle a law course. He plans
to graduate in six years or so, then
his ambitions point toward the le
gal phases of the U. S. govern
ment.
Eric Waldorf, now assisting John
Warren with the flush gridders,
was Neil's high school coach.
Athletic Director Anson Cornelf,
and Student Managers Dutch
Kolvwcr and Bob -Engelkc, and
Trainer Bob Officer probably will

Negroes Spark Attack
With Jackie Robinson and Ken
ny Washington sparking the back
field attack, Oregon will be in for
a tough afternoon.
Behind the two Negro halfbacks’
running and passing attack, UCLA
defeated Texas Christian, 6 to 2,
walked over Washington, 13 to 7,
tied a strong Stanford team, 14 to
14, and easily downed Montana,
20 to 6.
Kenny Washington leads the
coast in scoring with 24 points.
Cantor Is Starter
The Uclan backfield shapes up
with Izzy Cantor, fullback; Jack
Robinson, right half; Kenny Wash
ington, left half; and Viger at
cpiarterback.
Their line is Strode, left end;
Lyman, left tackle; Frawley, left
guard; Matheson, center; Som
mers, right guard; Zarubica, right
tackle; and MacPherson, right
end.

Honest John Warren undoubted
ly coaches the most gentlemanl;
group of freshman football player;
ever turned out at the Universit;
of Oregon.
For he possesses, in this year';
squad, everything a mother coul(

perfect from one end of the line
through the backfield, and all th«
way back again. They have unap
proachable manners, always re
member to say thank you at thi
right time, and never, never tackli
an opposing player without firs
obtaining his permission.
Babe’s Are “Killers”
It is doubtful, however, if thei;
toe-dancing tactics will prove ver;
effective Friday night when the;
play the University of Washing
ton Babes. For “Pest” Welch’;
strong eleven averages better thai
205 pounds to the man, and whei
that squad hits, the frosh are go
ing to wish they were safe a
home—where they really shoul<
be. It will take them about on<
play to find out what it is to plaj
against a hard brand of football.
This may sound a little far
fetched. After watching practict
the past two nights, however, it i:
more likely showing greater con
sideration than is really due. Ir
scrimmage, the squad has no'
shown enough drive to fight it:
way out of a wet paper sack.
Oregon will be lucky to hole
Washington down to three touch
downs Friday night. If the Duck
lings do that, they will earn a
