Duck Tracks By KEN CHIUSTIANSON, Co-Editor of Sports wayward neia s imn coating of water-logged turf will be torn up this afternoon following the Mon tana-Oregon football game, and no small part of the ripping will be done by one group of Montana players from the high country around Missoula. One lad who does most of the ripping for the Grizzlies, Halfback Bill Jones, won’t be performing, though. He's Coach Doug Fessen den’s No. 1 back and he had a couple of blood vessels broken in ( the Gonzaga game, so he was left home. Jones started most of the games, although Fessenden be lieves in using many backs. Fessenden has a squad this year which is mostly sophomoric. He loses only four men from the entire team, and since the aver age age is 20, he’ll lose very few because of the Burke-Wadsworth act. To top that, his team is not one of the imported variety. Ninety-five per cent of the squad is from the state of Montana. Jack Swarthout, 166-pound first string blocker, is from Prosser, Washington. He was starting left half last year. Negro Johnny Rea gan is from Chicago. He and Don Bryan do most of the passing | along with the absent Jones. Tom O’Donnell, captain and tackle, is from Casper, Wyoming which is the next thing to Montana. Outplayed Cougars Two years ago, Fessenden lost TOWELS won’t stay clean by themselves but. . .

Next year he ex pects a good club. But with this sophomore outfit, he hasn't done badly. Against Washington State, the Montanans made more yardage and more first downs, they doubled the yardage on Gonzaga, and were soundly beaten by Texas Tech. WSC scored 17 first downs to Ore gon’s 3. “Oregon should lteat us,” de clared Fessenden. “They have a little more weight in the line, and much more in the backfield. The Oregon boys have all had a year or so more of experience.” One of Fessenden’s fullbacks, Karl Fiske, never saw a game of football until last year when he was a freshman. “Even at that we should give Oregon a good game," predicted Fessenden, as he took short puffs from a stubby cigar. Bill Robertson, Grizzly guard, was much impressed by the green vegetation in and around the Wil lamette valley. He impressed oth ers with his remarkable resem blance to Oregon’s Rog Johnson, except that Johnson packs a few more pounds on his frame. "They’re catching all their pas ses now, and they'll probably miss them tomorrow,” ironically re marked Harry Adams, backfield coach, as his backs made numerous completions Friday. But no matter what, Montana will be a threat today. Brace and All John Warren takes his freshmen to Seattle and also a complicated metal and leather brace which fits over his injured left leg. But come next Monday, Tuesday, or Wed nesday, he’ll take off the contrap tion and not have to hobble around in teaching football to those same frosh. “My knee feels stronger all the time, but the doc was afraid that if I took the brace off before the Babe game, I'd jump around and get excited in Seattle and hurt the knee again,” explained Warren. So until next week, Warren will still hobble like Tub by Graves did last year during the baseball season. Graves is Washington’s baseball headman and had an injury similar to John’s cracked kneecap. Warren isn’t exactly taking his 26 ball players into a den of lions without knowing something about them. Being a firm believer in the proverb “to be forewarned is to be forearmed,” Warren knows much of the ball-playing ability of the Washington Babes from end to end and back to back with all of the players’ idiosyncrasies Drives Like Dow This Wally Wan of the three nationalities, Swedish, Chinese, and Hawaiian, is the No. 1 back from Honolulu. His substitute is Neil Brookes, fullback from Great Falls, Montana. He is short and square like his prototype, Kenny Dow of Oregon State and Great Just Received NEW POLAROID* Study Lamp $9.95 ONLY m < Attention— students, desk workers: This “magic lamp’’ wipes away glare from the desk-top just as famous Polaroid Day Glasses block outdoor glare . . . almost doubles visi bility . . . makes studying easier . . . helps keep healthy eyes healthy.

Certain to see much action foi Oregon is Halfback Tommy Eoblin already dubbed hero of the Wash ington State game. Roblin, though not too big, is difficult to bring down. He has a jarring stiff-arm a good change of pace, and a tech nique all his own of bolting out oi the clutches of would-be tacklers If Oliver instructs his boys not to take too many chances by run ning with a slippery ball, Isberg will probably come in for some heavy punting assignments. Stuart Beady Back in the line after some tough luck so far this season will be Stuart. It seems he has not had a chance to strut his stuff since the Stanford game, having been booted in the head then and later injuring his hip in practice. Rog Johnson should be right in there pitchin’ mud when and if the going gets rough. He is as rug ged as they make them, and played 60 minutes against the Washington Huskies in Portland. Segale, Culwell, and Davis will also be doing some booming around from their guard positions. Falls, and only knows how to drive, drive, drive, and drive some more. Darwin Bainton, No. 2 back and starter at left half, is the best passer on the squad, is very adept at skirting the ends, is fast and does most of the kick ing on the squad. He weighs about 196 and was a sensation in the independent league last year. Hansberry is his substi tute and is a big fellow, about 220. He’ll be used through the line. John Norton at the other half back position is a good-looking kid, built like Larry Olsen, the Duckling, and is a good runner, Barrett, his understudy is a big, rough, tough guy from Queene Anne, the alma mater of Ray Se gale, who blocks and runs well, Art Strom is the blocking back and weighs around 200. All-American Brother At left tackle position, Elmo Bond is the mainstay. He's the third brother of the Washington Bonds. The eldest, Chuck, was all American in 1936, about the time Del Bjork was going great guns for Oregon. Elmo weighs 215 and is said to be the best of the three. Graham and Robinson are the two guards. Graham weighs 200 while Robinson, left guard, weighs around 225 and is tough as nails He played offensive tackle and de fensive halfback in Lincoln high school in Seattle. Ira Cartney, left end, and Bob Murdy, right end, dc most of the pass-catching. Cartnej is very fast and weighs 185. Center and right tackle are question marks. mm TWO HOT ONES!

By 1’HIL, BIJROO Standing six feet tall and tipping the scales at 220 pounds is hefty right tackle Roger Johnson. Asked as to his favorite sport Rog answered nochalantly, “Why fishing, of course.’’ It was found that Rog used' to take time out from his high school studies in San Bernardino, California, to trot 70 miles up to Lake Arrowhead, where his father has a cabin, and make that his headquarters during his lisn ing escapades around the Arrow head country. Trout fishing in the nearby rampaging streams and swimming in the lake occupied the majority of his time there. Rog had a look of pride on his face when he told about the wonderful territory around the lake. 60-Minute Man Johnson's showing in the Wash ington game three weeks ago was one of his outstanding perform ances of the season. Roger played the full 60 minutes of the game, and is the only Oregon player to see action during an entire contest so far this year. He was continual ly smashing up the power plays of Coach Jimmy Phelan’s proteges. Roger had to think awhile when asked who his toughest line op ponent has been this season, but he finally decided on USC’s De Lauer, one of the strongest defen sive and offensive tackles on the coast. Rog played only 26 minutes ol the USC battle because of a | sprained knee suffered on the last play of the Washington game, i However he was in there long ; enough to find out how terribly _ Westminster Hike Scheduled lor 4 p.m. Westminster house has planned a hike for 4 p.m. today.

Web foots Swim; "Snowball Rally' Melts With Mist The rains came, and Oregon's proposed “Snowball "Rally” hit the living organizations and melted away last night. Many a coed put her cutexed finger-tips into the telephone dial, and called Pat Keller, chair man of the rally, protesting against it because of the minia ture lakes on the street corners, and everyone was generally against the Venetian atmosphere. One football player who had eat en lots of steak complained that he was afraid he’d fall into a mud-puddle and get cramps. With water on the brain, Kel ler finally decided to call off the whole affair. Evanston, Illinois high school students, assembling in their au ditorium, to hear the Coe college band, waited half an hour, discov ered there had been a 30-day error in dates. GOOD LUCK!

The frosh will be fully ready for the fray, and itching to hang up their second win of the season. Coach "Pest" Welsh, Babes mentor, has not announced a starting ■ lineup, but with the heft and speed that the Babes boast, the frosh can look forward to a busy after noon. Word from Seattle states that two of Welsh's star backs Wally Wan, and Bob Erickson will not be able to play. Regular Return With the strength that the re turn of Meri'itt Klufferman and Cliff Griffin will bring to the line, and with Inky Boe showing his old form after an operation on his foot, the frosh will show the Seat tle fans a good exhibition of foot ball. Coach John Warren's probable starting line up will find Bert Gi anelli and Gene Peterson at the end posts, Cliff Giffin and Pat Wynne at the tackle posts, Paul Formoso and Chuck Elliott willing the guard positions, and Brad Formoso and Chuck Elliott filling center. Pete James is slated to get the nod at the quarterback berth. Gale Emmons is probable starter at full, and Bob Liday at left half. Warren will have a hard time to decide on which of his touch down trio, Larry Olsen, Jimmy Newquist and Inky Boe will draw the starting assignment at the right half slot. it'-1 Mill Al.
