DUCK TRACKS ■uiuiumiimnmnnmtnmmmnniiiinTniiiimmimumiiiimiimm'mimiiinunii By GEORGE PASERO Co-Sports Editor Oregon Daily Emerald With this Emerald signalizing the approach of Thanksgiving va cation, its time to clean up all the odds and ends that have ac crued through campus contacts so far this year. A win over Washington Thurs day would ring the curtain down on the most successful grid sea son Oregon has had since the palmy days of 1933, when Mike Mikulak, Mark Temple (he of the bandaged-head fame), Leighton Gee, Bob Parke, and the rest of those immortals battled to a co championship of the coast. So far the Ducks have grabbed three conference decisions ... a victory over Washington would make four. In 1938, the Ducks won three games; in 1937 they copped two victories; and in 1936 the Ore gons failed completely to register in the win column. Prince Callison's first two cre ations, his 1934 and 1935 teams, each won two of four games with top coast competition. Stuart . . . All-coast Here’s a tip to remember . . . I have it on good authority (and I do mean good) that Oregon's Big Jim Stuart, 220-pound tackle, will be named on the all-coast team when it comes out. So doff your caps to the big red-head from Hermiston (that's in the high-country, you know), for he's played sparkling ball all year. As far as Bob Smith, Jay Gray beal, or Vic Reginato are con cerned, my authority couldn’t say. All three have been among the coast’s elite for three years, but in yours truly's opinion, if one of these boys make the all-coast, it will be a bit remarkable, for the Ducks will have placed t-wo men. Heck, They’re All Good In previous columns we have boomed both Smith and Graybeal, and as for Reginato, suffice it to say that he was recently named by Norman Speers, one of the country’s top-notch predictors, as the fourth best end in the United States in a sports broadcast over NBC. This 1939 Oregon team is mak ing it very tough for all-coast pickers because none of the play ers are particularly outstanding For instance, there's the above named quartet. Then there are guys like Frankie Emmons, a plenty sweet fullback; Ernie Rob ertson and Cece Walden, rough and tough guards; Jim Cadenasso, scrappy center; and Pinky Dono van, heady signal-caller. You just can’t pick one over another. Intramural Big Shots Intramural competition has been hot and plentiful this year . . . evidence of this was the golf match between Bob Engelkc and Bob Anet for the divot title last week . . . both shot close to par golf, and only missed a three-foot putt on the. final green beat the all-American basketball guard. Anet claims he “tied up’’ on that final putt. In touch football, the Sigma Nus, Phi Delts, and Kappa Sigs arc in there pitchin’ for the title . . . Sigma Nus, so claims its pub licity man, Cliff Sexsmith, who has been after me for quite a while, is riding on the throwing arms and flying feet of its baseball players, Bill Carney, all-American Dick Whitman, and John Bubalo . . . also Don McCormack. The Phi Delts have that one man team, Ken Shipley, and they say he catches passes all over the field. Shipley, in our opinion, is about the best intramural athlete in school. He can do anything, and do it well. Incidentally, Bill Hay ward once said that Shipley could be good in any sport he wanted to be good in. McAuliffe Pitches Kappa Sigma is another threat as long as Bob McAuliffe is throw ing passes. Mac can throw them al most any distance. Another top Oregon, SONS Open, Cage Season Saturday Dick, Pctvaluncts, Sarpola, Sandness, McNeeley, lead Hobsonmen Against Southern Oregon Normal in Igloo By KEN CHRISTIANSON Hobby Hobson's basketball squad, 1939-40 edition, plays its first j game of the season Saturday night for the benefit of those who stay on the campus over the Thanksgiving vacation. Their opponent—Sou thern Oregon Normal. John Dick, all-western NCAA forward last year, Matt Pavalunas, Ted Sarpola, Earl Sandness, Evert “Red" McNeeley, lettermen; Archie Marshik, George “Porky” Andrews,.-i and Toivo Piippo, last year's re serves are sure to see action. Transfers to Play Vic Townsend and Herb Tomp kins, all-conference players from Compton jaysee, Ed McGrath from Santa Monica, Hank Anderson from Eastern Oregon Normal, Bill Borcher from San Francisco, and Mel Olsen from Southern Oregon Normal are promising transfers and may see action. Len Gard, Butch Thompson, and Don Galbraith, last year’s frosh have been showing well in practice. Other players, George Jackson, Tini Smith, Paul Jackson, are looking well also. Ducks, Huskies In Crucial Tilt Record Shows 14 Wins for Each Grid Team When Oregon and Washington meet at Seattle on Thanksgiving day, both teams will be keyed up for an important battle. Since the series started in 1900, each team has won 14 games and four have been tied. Oregon has scored a total of 304 points to the Huskies 271. The Huskies failed to cross the Oregon line in the six games played between 1928 and 1933, but since then they have won three of the five games played. Oregon de feated Washington 3 to 0 last year. The Ducks have decisively beat en Washington twice since the be ginning of the series. In 1900 they trounced the Huskies to the tune of 43 to 0, and again in 1928, 27 to 0. Washington’s greatest margin of victory came in 1923 when they beat Oregon 26 to 7. notch Kappa Sig is Jack Lansing, pass-catcher. Reports from the South say there is a possibility that Dud De groot and Pop Warner, San Jose State coaches, may move into the coaching berth at Stanford, re placing Tiny Thornhill. San Jose State and Fresno State, the latter coached by Jim (Rabbit) Bradshaw, who applied for the Oregon job two years ago, will meet Thursday . . . and from all the stories that say these two teams are among the coast's top notchers, with about 10 wins each this season, this should be a bat tle to watch .... And oh, yes, there’s the fan who telephoned A1 Wesson, Southern Cal sentiment stimulator, and wanted to know whether the 50 yard line for the SC-UCLA clash this year was on the Trojan or the Bruin side. So, They’ll Take the Train Reason why the Oregon boys won’t fly to Seattle: According to Anse Cornell, it costs $10.18 plus two meals on the train for each player while by air it would dent the pocketbook for $19.63 per per son. A bit of a difference, you bet. Earlier this year yours truly predicted that Frankie Emmons would break away for a long run at least once this year . . . well, Frankie’s last chance to make mo look good comes Thursday. 1 Another prediction: Dick Horne 1 and Jim Harris will play lots oi ball next year, mark our word. Also, look for Frank Boyd, in jured this season, to do plenty oi . long distance kicking for the var . sity next fall ... he really car . pass and kick. * THANKSGIVING IS A BIG DAY - flRfCI FOR RADIOS lll!HI!liniii!nimil!!lBlT And you will want your’s runnin perfectly to get in on all the bi games.

Baker, Fouchek Win Frank Baker and Steve Fouchek won the all-campus ping pong doubles title by taking a hard fought game from the Bob Ru dolph-Al Shaw combination. Fou chek and Baker got off to a shakey start, dropping the first two games by 14-21, 18-21 scores. They rallied strongly in the next two games, however, to smother their opponents under with scores I of 21-9, 21-9. Then with the game all tied up, the winners put on the pressure to take the deciding game and the championship, 22-20. Williams in Finals Wee Willie Williams reached the finals of the all college handball tournament by routing H. Lowe to the tune of 21-15, 21-12.

Coed Teams Win Net Tiffs The Alpha Gams fought a hard game to beat the Thetas, 27 to 26, yesterday in the last rounds be fore the finals in the intramural volleyball games. The Alpha Phis won, 31 to 15, over Hendricks. The Thetas led by seven points throughout the game until the last seconds. With the captain, Helen Jane Kerr, fighting hard, it looked like a cinch for the Thetas, but the Alpha Gams renewed their energy and spurted ahead to win by one point. The championship play-offs will be held after the Thanksgiving va cation.

Overtime periods will be allowed in case of ties. Bocci threw to Jim Buck for the deciding ATO tally. Stan Hansen passed to John Tuttle for the Dolt's 6 points. A little too much razzle-dazzle re sulted in a dropped lateral on the Kirkwood 5 to halt the most se rious Delt threat. Frankie Emmons Grid Career Ends Thursday; Stenstrom Will Carry on By LEN BALLIF Oregon's case of "fraternity brother versus fraternity brother” wiil be brought to a close tomorrow in Seattle, when the clock strikes 12 on the football days of Frank Emmons, the Beaverton powerhouse. For two years now, Coach Tex Oliver has had two very evenly matched fullbacks fighting against each other for the starting posi tion, Emmons and Marsh Stenstrom, the 210-pound bone-crushcr from Broadway high school in Seattle. Frank and Marsh both agree that Southern California has the toughest team in the conference. Second toughest, they believe, is Oregon State. and Duke Iverson will be right behind this “never - get - any - rest victim” to see that he keeps hustl ing. According to Emmons, one of the toughest ends in the confer ence to take out of play is Oregon State's sophomore, Johnny Leo vich. Frank is looking forward to a tough time with Ed McDowell, the Huskies’ right end, Thanks giving. Ambrose Schindler and Granny Lansdell, Southern California's two stars, were lauded by both Em mons and Stenstrom as well as Ken “Rowdy” Dow, OSC fullback. Dow, according to Emmons, is a better ball player than the more publicized Jim Kisselburgh. Tomorrow’s game with Wash ington will also be a homecoming day for Stenstrom, who will prob ably play against some of his home town high school foes of days gone by. Marsh, besides playing football, was quite a track man at Broad way high. He threw the shot put and the discus, and pole vaulted on the track team. He is majoring in! foreign trade, and professes a de- j sire to enter into the field of busi ness, not football, upon graduat-1 ing. Next year, Stenstrom will have clearer sailing, but not all of it will be beer and pretzels—Roy Ell ^■iiiiiiiiiiiniiiHiiiiiiiiiiiBiiiiiiiniiiiiiiniiiiiniiniiiiiiii Time doesn’t mean a thing!...
