Duck Tracks By KEN CHRISTIANSON, Co-Editor of Sports We strolled down to Hayward field to catch a glimpse of the Webfoots Wednesday afternoon during practice. We reached the grandstands and sat down. Three minutes later we were unexpect edly invited to come back Satur day for the game. But before we left we noticed some changes in the Oregon lineup. Tackles were Jim Stuart and Ed Moshofsky. Later we found that Rog Johnson had been tackled by a mighty flu germ and thrown for a loss. Guards were Val Culwell and Ray Segale. Bill Regner was at one end, Erling Jacobsen at center, Chet Haliski at quarter, Len Isberg at right half, and Marsh Stenstrom at fullback. I think Tommy liohlin was playing left halfback as Chuck Boice and I were hurried out but I wouldn’t swear to it. It seemed that Oregon was working on defense to stop the Bruin’s sensation, Jackie Robinson. All else is a matter of conjecture. Coach Tex Oliver must be greatly keyed up for this game, for secret practice orders were issued for the remiander of the week. Apparent ly, Oliver plans to use some new hocus-pocus on the unsuspecting Bruins. Good Game Indicated At any rate, secret practice or not, hocus-pocus or not, naive Bruins or not, it all points to a great game Saturday. On the one hand is the UCLA team which has not been beaten by more than seven points in any one game, but which has not won any either. On the other hand is the Oregon team which has recently found its of fensive punch—so long dead. Mon tana still hasn't recovered from that 38 to 0 scrubbing. UCLA boasts one of the strongest lines on the coast, especially through the center, where Oregon is weak. The Bruins have had consistently good teams since the advent of Babe Horrell. They have some of the speediest backs on the coast in the shape of Robinson, Ray Bart lett, and Ted Forbes. The Bruins, 37 strong -vitii coaches, managers, and equipment, will pull into town sometime to morrow in time to try the turf at Hayward field and have a brief workout. They stopped yesterday at Davis, California and worked out on the California Aggie cam pus. Flavelle and I Should Oregon wax the Bruins’ slats Saturday, and I think they can, I'm going to take a little of the credit for it. For, there in the Oregon dressing room, beneath Bob Flavelle’s critical article which appeared in Old Oregon re cently, was the first half of my last column. Cute little red marks pointed out a certain boldfaced section in which was charged that “the cen ter of the Oregon line was woefully weak on pass plays. Many times as Len Isberg dropped back to pick a receiver, Grizzlies sifted through some place in the Oregon line like flour through a crack, and inevitably Isberg would have to run with the ball.” If this statement is calculated to help Oregon retain that new-found offensive spirit and give the Ore gon linemen a little more drive, then we have accomplished our purpose in pointing out the most noticeable weak points which showed up against a weak team. If this effect is derived then we shan’t have reason to write of this again. Frosh-Rook Feature But the closest game in Eugene during Homecoming should be the farewell appearance of the Oregon freshman club against Oregon State’s rooks this evening. Civic stadium at the south end of Wil lamette street is the scene and stars of both teams will be per forming starting at 8 p.m. Chock Shelton is the rook team with about ten other play ers.

Y, Frosh Battle Rooks In Grid Final Tonight Citij Stadium Turf Scene of Tilt Between Rivals Oregon Ducklings will be out to ring up their second win of the season over the rooks tonight, when they tangle on the civie sta dium gridiron. The kickoff is scheduled for 8 o'clock. The game will close the 42nd year of rivalry between the two school’s freshman squads. Coach John Warren sends his gridsters into the tilt with a slight lead in games won up to date. Since “Honest John” took over the reins of freshman athletics in 1935 he has won six of the eleven games played with McKallip's men. One contest was a scoreless tie. Two Backfields McKallip has worked with two different backfield combinations this week, and it is likely that he will substitute the backfield as a unit as did Coach "Pest” Welsh in the Frosh-Babe game in Seattle Saturday. The first string unit of the Stat er's backfield will include Dick McReynolds at quarter, Everett Smith and Bill Mclnnis at the halfs, and Lewis “Chock” Shelton at full. The second backfield combina tion finds Bill Rush at quarter. Dee Krantz and Bob Leichhardt at the halves, and Art Franklin will hold down the fullback slot. Bob Lovelady, lanky wingman, will probably watch the game from the sidelines, with the broken hand received in the Seattle game. Bert Gianelli, burly end, has been nurs ing a bruised shoulder. Warren has his touchdown trio of Larry Olsen, Jimmy Newquist, and Inky Boe ready to hurl at the rooks. around Pendleton in years since Jay Graybeal. He doesn’t need to play ball—he has a private plane and ear. But he plays through love of the sport and runs the 100 in :10. He weighs 215 pounds. On the frosh side we have several stars topped at times by Jim New quist, interscholastic all-American, who tore off an average, of five yards per try in 14 attempts in Portland against the rooks. His No. 1 relief man, Inky Boe, was charged with letting Shelton score in the last encounter, but he real ized his mistake before the end of the game and paced the Oregon attack. The attack netted some 60 yards and a touchdown. UNIVERSITY" BUSINESS COLLEGE SHORTHAND — TYPEWRITING COMPLETE BUSINESS COURSES Edward L.

Uclans Arrive Today For Olivermen Test By JOHNNY KAHANANUI They're coming at noon today, Coach “Babe” Horrell and 37 Bruins, a bunch of gridders with just enough oneriness to relish dumping nuts, bolts, wrenches, and a few touchdowns on Oregon Homecoming festiv ities to clog the whole “deal.” And it is rumored the Uclans, out for their first conference win, aren’t particularly choosey about whose head they step on for a boost up a notch. Robinson Threat So Marse Tex Oliver, yo’ had bettah get yo’ trappers real ready. Dem' Bruins ain’t Grizzlies, 'spe cially dat little brown one, Jackie Robinson, he sho’ can go like de debil! And how to bag the little Bear’s offense is probably what the Web foot headman has been hemming and hawing about all week. And it’s “probably” because he has slapped the “Absolutely No Tres passing” sign on the gates of the practice field all the time he has been prodding the Webfoots through grueling rehearsals, the sign being applicable even to the press. Field Will Re Damp Hayward stadium will probably be a bit damp for the fray, and to avoid unnecessary complications, the Frosh-Rook game which was to have been played on that turf was routed to the Eugene Civic sta dium. Dwellings oozing out of cracks in the “wall” of the Duck practice fortress have it that Oliver is plan ning some kind of spectacular “de fense” for UCLA’s all-over-the creation ground attack, an offense rendered doubly dangerous with speed-ball Robinson in there roll ing. Also the Duck mentor is not neglecting his offense. He may shake a few tricks out of his coat sleeve Saturday. Lets Go!
