DUCK TRACKS (CRmiiniimiininiimiimmimminmmninmmmmimnHiiiiimmnnnmiHiiiuni By ELBERT HAWKINS Co-Sports Editor Oregon Daily Emerald Whether it was the other guy i or Willy Webfoot on a scamper into touchdown land this season, practically all Oregon wins or losses came from the aerial chan nels. Only game this season which wasn't settled by forward passes, or touchdowns set up by them, was the early-season 6 to 0 win over California in Berkeley. One scribe said the Ducks lacked confidence in their running attack 4 against Oregon State and had to heave passes, but we’ve concluded that their ground thrusts rip off enough yardage for any first rate club . . . they just naturally like to heave the ball. In six conference games they've thrown exactly 102 passes and completed 48 of ’em, according to statistics by Oregon’s publicity man, Bruce Hamby. That, in case you wondered, lacks only three of completing half the passes Oregon tossed. Six of the team’s thirteen touchdowns have been directly at tributed to Tex Oliver’s aerial ma chine. The pass-minded Webfoots heaved 44 times in their last two; games against Washington State jand Oregon State for 23 comple tions and four touchdowns or more than 50 per cent efficiency. In sports lingo “that’s pitchin’.” An Atmosphere of Passes? Thanksgiving day fans of the big Oregon-Washington classic in Seattle are apt to see a flock of Webfoot passes if the stadium turf is anything near dry, and hints of Eric Waldorf and John Warren, frosh coaches, who have seen the Huskies three times this year, indicate it’s apt to be a two-sided pass heaving scrap. According to Eric, this boy, Dean McAdams, completed a whole flock of passes in succession early in the season for Washing ton and for a while ranked high in the nation. Waldorf has been right in everything he’s told the; Emerald this year. For instance, he said the Ducks would need two touchdowns to whip Gonzaga and was 100 per cent right because ''Oregon scored only once and lost, 12 to 7. So just follow Mr. Waldorf's hint and watch Dean McAdams very closely Thursday afternoon if you’re one of the migrating Oregonians who follow the team to Seattle. Honest John Warren wouldn't even agree that Washington’s of fense is powerful enough to worry Willy Webfoot but he offered a reason why Oregon State’s Lon Stiner told us to “watch out for Washington.” It was the Husky aerial attack. How Hobby and Hec Work Funny thing about the pre-sea son tactics of your basketball coaches. Take Hobby Hobson and Hec Edroundson who have ped dled their Oregon and Washington basketball teams to enough north ern division titles in the last 15 ^years to virtually monopolize them. Hec came out last week with his choice of Washington's “first five” men as a basis from which to carry his future workouts. His boys know who forms the first team and work accordingly. Hobby, to the contrary, an nounces that he has no first team and every position on the yarsity quintet is wide open. Nobody knows right now who will form Oregon’s first five when it opens defense of its northern division, coast, and national championships. Prexy John, Lone Survivor Only first string tall fir return ing is John Dick, the student prexy, and he is being groomed for a center spot instead of at for i I MB. and MBS. NEWT Touch Football Schedule Today's touch football sched ule, with both games set for 4, is as follows—Field 1, Alpha Tau Omega vs. Theta Chi; Field 2, Kirkwood co-op vs. Delta Tau Delta. *39 Football Takes Leave Of Hayward Final Workout for Season's Ender Scheduled Tonight By BAY FOSTER Football on Hayward field goes out for the 1939 season tonight, : when Tex Oliver puts his grid j squad through its final heavy workout in preparation for the ] Washington Huskie game Thurs day in Seattle. Wednesday at 9:10 the traveling, squad ships baggage and all for the lair of the Husky. Included in the group will be 12 seniors who will be playing their last game for Old Oregon. Eight or nine of them will probably start the game. While the rest of the school probably rested over the weekend, the football team was practicing. Tough Scrimmage Sunday there was a hard two hour practice scrimmage on Hay ward field. The first and second teams scrimmaged against the third squad. Sunday saw the last of the 20 freshmen who have been working with the varsity. On the “upper mud flats" dum my scrimmage and then real scrimmage was held yesterday. The first and second teams were I on defense against the “Washing- j ton” team composed of the third and fourth stringers. Some of the pet Husky plays clicked against the teams. Merle Peters Injured Merle Peters came up with an injured left knee again. He twist ed it in a hard blocking scrim mage. Pete will probably be in! condition for his last game. On the first team in the back field were Donovan, Berry, Gray beal, and Emmons. On the second j were Chet Haliski, Don Mabee, j Len Isberg, and Marsh Stenstrom. j ward where he won all-western honors last year. Hobby could send 1 a team of “all-stars” into his first game if he wants to use Vic Townsend, Compton junior col college leading scorer and two year member of an all-conference! group, and Ed McGraff, all-con ference boy from San Mateo junior college, etc., but the headman is n’t picking his team that way. He could turn out a potent Ore gon team, too, by using only trans fers, say a quintet including Town send, McGraff, Hank Anderson, six foot seven center from East- 1 ern Oregon normal, Herb Tomp kins, Compton J. C., and Bill Bor- 1 cher, six foot five hoopman from Sacramento J. C. Or he might use as a very1 strong combination a team of boys solely from last year’s frosh or varsity: Matt Pavalunas, Dick, Ted Sarpola, George (Porky) An drews, Archie Marshik, Evert Mc Neeley, Earl Sandness, Toivvo Piip po, Warren (Tini) Smith, and Leonard Card. Hobby doesn’t claim to have the best material in the country, or to have ’em five deep for every position, but they’re all competent enough that he’s going to leave every position open until it’s ade quately filled rather than follow ing the Edmundson idea of pick j ing the first string and then let I ting the boys fight it out.

Taylor’s Betas, Sigma Nu, Canard, Phi Delts, Sig Eps, Gamma, And Campbell Win Tilts BERN1E ENGEL Six victories, one tie, and two defaults featured Monday’s and last Saturday’s touch football play. Yesterday saw the Betas cop their clash with Campbell co-op, 12 to 0, while Sigma Nu dumped Alpha Tau Omega, 18 to 6. Saturday’s action included the Phi Delt's 19 to 0 trouncing of Chi Psi to annex the league III title; Campbell co-op’s 6 to 0 win over the DUs; another Sigma Nu win, this one 19 to 0 at the expense of the Pi Kaps; Canard club's 7 to 0 dropping of Zeta hall; and the six all Sherry Ross versus Kirkwood co-op tie. Sigma Phi Epsilon and Gamma hall w-on by default because the Omega hall and Yeoman nines were still in bed at 8:45 Saturday morning. Whitman Rambles Dick Whitman intercepted an ATO pass on the 50 and ran it all the way down field for the first Sigma Nu score. John Stretcher’s try for the point was no good because the Sigs had four men on the line. Only for a few plays during the last half did the ATO men match their opposition. Paul Bocci threw to Ralph Dunn for their lone six points. The yellow-shirted Sigma Nus played sticky-fingered ball, catch ing passes with everything but their eyebrows. Campbell co-op held off the Beta threat until the last quarter. At this juncture the fratmen hitched up their eight pairs of trousers and one set of bathing trunks and went to town. Brayton Twice Harold Brayton caught both touchdown passes. The Phi Delts trundled out a machine-like ball club to rush the Chi Psi men off their feet. Plung ing over for the first score two minutes after the opening whistle, the victors marshalled their forc es and drove to a second tally five minutes later. The Phi Delts were “on”; their timing resembled that of a var sity team and their pass-snatchers made seemingly impossible catch es. Sigma Nu was never threatened as she disposed of the Pi Kaps. John Bubalo, basketball ace from Portland’s Lincoln high, threw all three touchdown passes. Bubalo Stars Bob Yancy intercepted on his own 22 to temporarily halt the Sigma Nu steamroller, but Bu balo went to work and the Pi Kaps gave in to let two touchdowns through in the closing moments of the game. Elmer Olsen intercepted a DU pass on his own 37 and ran it to the opposition two to pave the way for the deciding score in the Campbell co-op-Delta U p s i 1 o n game. Guard A1 Jenson crashed over for the tally. Canard club kept a surprisingly weak Zeta hall team on the de fensive throughout their contest. Charles Baker passed for both the touchdown and the conversion. Kirkwood and Sherry Ross earned their first points of the season as they battled to a tie. Kirkwood nearly had another touchdown when they reached the hall two on a long pass, but the Sherry lads held.

The Beavers, after a poor show ing the first half, came back strong to completely outrush a be wildered Bear eleven. Oregon state was hard pressed in the first half, stopping repeated California drives. The OSC line began to hold following the intermission and not only held its opponents in check, but managed to push over three touchdowns for themselves. Santa Clara’s line proved im pregnable to UCLA Saturday as the two teams battled to a score less tie before 50,000 fans. The Bruins were unable to shake a man loose so closely did the Bron cos line blanket their opponents. Washington State college won over Stanford 7 to 0 in a listless exhibition at Palo Alto to further: the Indians’ losing streak. Stan- j ford has yet to win a conference start this season. The Cougars scored early in the first period af-. ter which the teams settled down to very uninteresting ball. On the list for the Turkey day fans Thursday will be the annual Oregon-Washington battle at Seat tle. The Ducks should have a real fight from the Huskies, who have a much improved club since the first of the season. Saturday Southern California travels to South Bend, Indiana, for; its game with the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. This series is not ed for the brand of football pro duced, and this year's game should be no exception as both teams are of the top teams of their respec tive sections. Oregon State and UCLA, both in running for the conference crown, i meet in Los Angeles in what should be an elimination for the i loser. The Beavers have an excep tional line which may be trouble-1 some to the Uclatis. The California Bears will at-1 tempt to add another to the list of: Stanford defeats when they meet' November 25. The Stanford In dians are in the midst of their aiost disastrous season, seemingly destined to wind up in the confer snee cellar.

Engel ke was one up at the end of lb holes. The lead switched back and forth between the two finalists several times during the match but neither man was ever more than two up on his opponent. Anet Starts Well Anet started fast and found himself in the lead at the end of the first nine with a two hole ad vantage. Engelke shot brilliantly as the second nine started and was two up on Anet as the 15th hole ended. At this point he faltered badly and blew the next two holes to Anet. They went to the final tee with the score even. Engelke settled down to his game and took DGs and Thetas Advance in Coed Volleyball Delta Gamma fought hard to beat Hendricks hall, 33- to 25, while Kappa Alpha Theta downed Sigma Kappa, 51 to 20, in the final round of volleyball games at the intramural season.
