The (Jonzaga defeat is a thing
of the past to Tex Oliver and his
Webfoots for they’ve got more im
mediate worries in the form of a
tough gang of UCLA Bruins and
their Kenny Washington a n d
Jackin Robinson, but we’re pre- j
senting the following incident just!
to show how seriously the Oliver
family takes its football.
At approximately 4:15 o'clock
Saturday afternoon one of the Em
erald's feminine operatives hap
pened to be passing the Oliver resi
dence where Tex's little daughter
of less than one year had been
quietly resting on the front porch.
It seems that down on Hayward
field at approximately the same
hour and minute the struggling
Gonzaga boys connected on their!
second touchdown pass of the j
game — which beat Oregon, 12 to :
7. Call it clairvoyance, coincidence,
growing pains, or what ye may,!
but we're told that little Oliver
gal broke into a spell of the most,
gosh-awful squawling you ever
heard and Mama Oliver had to
come to the rescue.

To hoar poor John Warren speak
of the frosh football team’s
chances of trimming the Washing
ton Babes here Friday night . . . .
well, it’s just a depressing thought.
What do the Babes have?
“Everything!" boomed out Hon
est John, and with that weighty
explanation off his chest he told
of two 225 pound tackles the Duck
lings are going to have to move
out to make any yardage. In case
that didn't sound convincing he
tossed in news that the Babes will
also sport a 225' pound fullback.
Funny thing about football.
While the varsity game is becom
ing more and more commercializ
ed and more and more a business,
the frosh are actually becoming
de-emphasized. This fall, for in
stance, they cut the Duckling grid
schedule to only three games
half a season in order that the
first year boys might have more
time to study and to concentrate
on getting ready for their sopho
more days on the varsity. And
another thing, the frosh don’t use
any scouting of the enemy.
"I play ’em all blind,” explains
Skipper Warren, “no point in that
(scoutingi, we just have a lot of
fun.”

Not many seasons ago Colonel
Bill Hayward was famous as Ore
gon’s head football trainer l*ccauso
he turned out so many funny look
ing braces and bandages which al
lowed Webfoots with broken bones
to actually sail into combat with
little fear of further injury. We'd
like to mention that while capable
Bob (John Day) Officer has been
head trainer and chief patch-up
man for a couple of seasons, Bill’s
fertile imagination in regards lo
these patent braces and supports
has been active and helpful in the
Oregon dressing room.
One of Bill’s best jobs was sev
eral seasons back when he rigged
up Oregon’s all-Coast tackle Bill
Morgan so he could play one game
with a pair of broken hands. Mor
gan dashed around that day wav
ing two big white hamlike band
ages which covered his forearms
and played one of ttie best games
of his career.
Hayward was laughing about il
the other day. Bald he received
about a thousand letters asking all
about those two light bandages.
One of the best sportsmanlike ges
tures ever made between Oregon !
and Oregon State in athletics was
the year Mike Mikuluk, for the
Webfoots, and Red Franklin of the

To Honor Oliver
The Los Angelos Alumni olub is
staging a dinner ;it the Hollywood
Roosevelt Hotel the night before
the crucial Oregon-UCLA game in
honor of Coach Tex Oliver. Ed
Crowley, assistant manager of the
hotel, will act as toastmaster for
the pre-game gathering which is
set for 7 :.'t() p. m.
Reavers were slated to hook np in
a duel of all-Americans in one of
those highly-publicized civil wai
scraps. Kranklin had a bad shoul
der injury which was due to cut
down his chances of doing anything
against the Oregon* to practically
nil. Hayward sent out an invita
tion before the game for frank

his ingenuity might click on
some brace which would fix the

their slumbers early in the
morning. Three hard days on the
practice field this week put the
team members in a restful mood.
Of the 34 players on their way
south, eight are ends, six are
halves, six are guards, four each
are centers, quarters, and tackles,
and two are fulls. With the second
full, Marshall Stenstrom, just go
ing along for the climate with his
lame leg, Frank Emmons will have
to bear the brunt of the Bruin at
tack. Itoy Dyer and Buck Berry
worked out at this position this
week also.
Arrives Fridiiy
The Webfoot special will land in
Los Angeles sometime Friday
morning, go to a secluded hotel,
and take a light workout in the
coliseum that afternoon. The heat
wave has apparently left the south
land again, with the temperature
only G8 degrees in Los Angeles
Tuesday.
One newcomer showed his place
on the traveling squad this time,
Ted Jaross, an end who has come
up in the last two week,;’ scrim
mages. Another end to move up is
Willie Reynolds, who worked with
the first stringers last night at
right end. Willie still has more fire
than any other member of the
team, bar none.
On the starting team at closing
time yesterday were Vic Reginato
and Hymie Harris at the end, and
Merle Peters and Jim Stuart at
tackles. Guards were Cece Walden
and Ernie Robertson and at center
was Jim Cadenasso. Donovan,
Graybeal, Berry, and Emmons were
the four rambling Ducks in the
backfield.
Good Second Team
A second backfield combination
that can be shoved into the game
at any time has Chet Haliski at
quarter, Bob Smith and Roy Dyer
at halves, and Len Isberg at full.
In the line, seven men can step into
the shoes of the regulars with con
fidence. Jim Harris and Bill Reg
nor at ends, Ellroy Jensen and Art
Winetrout at tackles, Bud Nestor
and Bob Davis at guards, and eith
er A1 Sanmelson or Erling Jacob
sen at center, make up the team.
Dor the first time since the USC
game. Oregon will enter a confer
ence game an underdog. Undefeat
ed UCLA is a ruling favorite in
the south, six points being the
usual number of points given
away. This is to Oliver's liking, for
he has his team in the mood that
they can win against the Bruin.

Fourteen Vaunted
Splashers Report
To Russ Cutler
Fourteen promising swim candi
dates reported to Coach Russ Cut
ler on Monday afternoon at Uni
versity pool.
Seven freestylers, four breast
strokers, one backstroker, and two
divers made up the personnel. The
shortage of dorsal men is expected
to be offset by drafting one or two
freestylers into service as back
strokers.
Good Backstroke
Warren Finke, a California boy,
is reputed to be an excellent pros
pect for the number one back
stroke spot. Finke is more ex
perienced than most of the other
candidates and will fit into the set
up quite easily.
Breaststroke assignments will be
ably taken care of by a quartet led
by Ken Powers. Powers showed tip
very well in intramural competi
tion and should devclope into a
much better than average breast
stroker. Tom Corbett, Ralph Hues
tis, and Jerry Osborne, will fight
it out for the other positions.
Seven Frec-Stylcrs
The seven freestylers, whose
number is made up by, Albert Al
ien, Wendell Anderson, Mervin
Doran, Gilbert Gertner, Cecil Hunt,
Richard Jeffeott, Ruell Renne, and
Lamar Tooze, are all evenly
j matched and should provide the
balance of strength that a strong
team needs.
Earl Walrath and Tom Corbett
j are the diving aspirants. Walrath
has showed fine form up to present
and if he continues to improve
should be one of the better board
men in the north west.
No definite schedule of meets
has been arranged as yet, but
Coach Cutler has hopes of lining
up at least seven or eight tiffs for
the fledgling Webfoots.

He’s charged into “Stanford

to rock Boulder Dam. He lias per

Smith, allegedly the toughest line
man in the United States and a
proverbial cinch for All-American
honors.
In three years of play as
an Oregon regular no one has made
him as much as flinch and plenty
of tough boys have tried very,
very hard. But guess what? He
insists he's simply scared silly of

left handed list for making this
public.)
The man I speak of is Vic Regi

wingman this year. Thus far. Vic's!
outstanding work has tabbed him
as “the" end to watch on punts,
passes, deception and pass receiv
ing for tlu- remainder of the sea

four years of college halt is enough

Here's a tip to opposing coaches:
It you want to destroy* Reginato's
confidence when he drops back to

Instead, a smooth little blonde job
in the front row with a hypnotic

satisfactory.

Oregon's Quinn Sold
To Chicago Cubs;
Stars at Vancouver
By GEORGE PASERO
Co-Sports Editor, Oregon Daily Emerald
There's quite a story behind the diamond success of big. blond,
Wimpy Quinn, the Chicago Cubs’ $5000 piece of baseball property.
During his years in the Oregon bushes and during his sojourn as
a University of Oregon frosh slugger, big Wimpy (J. Wellington, to
some of you) was hailed as a sure-fire pro prospect. Visiting scouts
always made it a point to look him over.
The same was true in Wimpy's sophomore year on the Oregon
varsuy. i ne iau Slugger wilii uie
large hands and wrists was the
talk of the northwest conference,
easily the outstanding third-base
man of the league. His bullet-like
pegs to First-sacker Busher Smith
cut off sure hits, and his long
distance clouting drove pitchers
frantic. His fielding, too, was okay.
Fortunes Fall
Then came his second year on
the Oregon varsity, and with it,
the fall in his baseball fortunes. At
the start of the season, diamond
devotees considered him the class
of the circuit, predicted a great
season for him.
Big Wimpy wanted to have that
big season, for he entertained an
idea of signing a pro contract at
the end of that junior year, just
as the great Joe Gordon had done.
Wimpy knew well the bargain val
ue of a final, top-flight varsity sea
son, especially when talking terms
with a cautious scout.
Batting Drops
But things went wrong from the
start. J. Wellington didn’t have
that big season. In fact he had a
rather poor season. His batting
average dropped a few notches,
and his fielding was anything but
spectacular. In short, he just
ivasn t the old Quinn, the boy who
made pitchers duck.
As a consequence, scouts began
to shy off Quinn like Myrna Loy
tvould autograph hunters. They'd
talk to Ford Mullen, Gale Smith,
and Pitcher Bob Hardy, but they
wouldn’t even go near Quinn.
Ail this might have discouraged
in ordinary ball player, but not
3uinn. He was no ordinary player.
He believed he was good enough,
ind now, more than ever, was de
:ermined he'd make good in the
iro game.
Rejected Captaincy
fie told Coach Hobson so last
'P’ing, rejected the captaincy of
he 1940 baseball team, and wrote
to Bob Brown, the Vancouver,
B. C., basebal lmagnate who owned
the franchise of the Vancouver
Capilanos of the Western Inter
national league, a class B outfit.
Brown knew Quinn well. In fact
the big Oregonian had played a
couple of seasons for Brown when
Brown ran the old Vancouver city
semi-pro league.
For Vancouver, Wimpy began
bombing the ball again. He gave
the park fences a battering all
summer and was a sensation. So
much so, in fact, that the Chicago
Cubs paid $5,000 for him. Next
year, he goes south to the spring
training camp of the Los Angeles
Angels of the coast league, a Cub
farm, but he probably will be sent
back to Vancouver to play first
base.
Play First Base?
Why first base ? Because that’s
the position the Cubs think he is
fitted for. If you remember,
Quinn’s stay at third has always
been a subject for controversy.
Last year, Umpire Spec Burke
said he ought to be a pitcher be
cause of his strong arm. Buck Bail
ey, WSC's one-man circus coach,
said Quinn was a natural outfield
er; and both concurred that he
wasn’t a natural third baseman.
Both men, however, overlooked
the first base position. Quinn is
eager to try it. ... I think he’ll
make it. Certainly, he'll play some
where. His remarkable slugging
is insurance of that.

Warren Attempts
To Find Strong
Starting Lineup
Coach John Warren sent his
freshman eleven through intensive
blocking and tackling drills yes
terday afternoon as the Ducklings
made final preparations for their
Friday night contest with the Uni
versity of Washington Babes.
The frosh will top off their pre
game attack tomorrow when they
stage a last drill on the upper mud
flats in back of the McArthur
court. i
Yesterday Warren split the
squad into two teams, sending the
first string eleven through prac
tice paces on both offense and de
fense. He alternated several dif
ferent backfield combinations in
an effort to find the strongest
starting players.
Real Test
“Pest" Welch’s Babes are ex
pected to be a tough test for the
Ducklings and in this game that
will quite definitely decide the fu- (
ture prospects for Oregon varsity |
teams. The frosh showed poorly.
in their first college encounter, j
losing to Oregon State's rooks, 19- j
to-0, in Portland two weeks ago.,
They will be out to redeem them-!
selves tomorrow, however, at
Washington's expense.
At least in one respect fresh
man prospects took a decided turn
for the better this week. That
was return to condition of four of
the many injured players. Roy Ell,
fullback; Jim Shepherd, left half;
George Bujan, right half; and Dick
Ashcom, right tackle, are now
turning out for regular practice.
It is doubtful, though, if Ell or
Shepherd will see much action Fri
day night.

smoking pipe has been improved by the
application of a neat little principle of
physics. When you take a puff at one of
these Carburetor Kaywoodies, you auto
matically draw air in through a tiny inlet
in the bottom of the bowl. That incom

puff. In fact, the harder you puff, the
more air comes in. That's why it's called
a Carburetor Kaywoodie. Everybody
