Duck Tracks By BOB FLAVELLE, Co-Sports Editor Splash—Splash—Splash—!!! Once in the race for each touch down—and well deserved. But that was last Saturday when UCLA was the victim. This week Oregon faces an entirely different proposition in taking on the fast moving Bears from California. Ac cording to the way they piled through the Uclans one would think that the game was in the bag. But it isn't, not by a long shot. The Webfoots were hopped up last week and were playing their first home conference contest to a Homecoming crowd. Oliver had taken advantage of every little incident to put his boys in a proper frame of mind to dump the opposition. In contrast, the Bruins were obviously feeling the effects of their first five games against some of the toughest teams in the country. Added to the Bruins’ woes was the sloppy weather. They never bad played in a field of mud before and they were discouraged and dis heartened. When Frankie Boyd led the Ducks all the way down the field right after the opening gun, the visitors were forced to put up a goal line stand right smack in the middle of the slimiest part of the field. It seemed to be ankle deep. As far as I could see, Jackie Robinson was the only Uclan on the field that seemed to be enjoy ing the game. He would come up from the bottom of a huge pileup wearing a broad grin, but his mates were sullen—they hated the mud. So Oregon drove through for miles of yardage and smeared their e Does your per sonality stop at your "hair line"?

UCLA Opinions A few quotes from the players and coaches of UCLA are rathci interesting: Nate DeFrancisco—"Oregon was the dirtiest team we have met all year, even the southern teams from Texas did not work on oui negro players as did Oregon to day.” Ka.v Bartlett—“Oregon had a fine team today, the strongest we’ve met. I think Texas A. & M. are very much overrated. They are not a clean team.” Coach Babe Horrell —- "It was Oregon’s day—their Homecoming, etc., pepped them up to playing great ball. We didn’t have a chance in the mud. Down south the game would have been postponed!” Jackie Robinson—“You fellows sure are mudders! Rcgner and I were just having a little fun out there—that’s all.” Oregon Has Learned I think DeFrancisco was a little bitter when he denounced the Web foots for playing dirty Saturday. But it is an indication that Oliver’s players were hitting harder than they ever have this season and not allowing themselves to be man handled in the same manner that they were against Southern Cali fornia. Football is a rough game, a man's game, and it can't be played in a dainty fashion. At least not if you want to win a game now and then. Oregon discovered their mistakes when viewing the ,USC pictures and their play last week end indicated that fact. I’m too often wrong in my judgments but the game this weekend finds me still occupy ing a position of indecision. Sold on Oregon’s performance against UCLA, I would say that they can beat any team on the coast if they can keep at the fever pitch of last week. They have had the stuff all season but it took the Homecoming game and ail efficient starting baekficld to do the trick. But California is also on the way up. Week by week they have shown great improvement and the USC triumph climaxed their seasons play. The game Saturday appears to be a tossup with the nod going to the team that is in the best psychological condition. This i: quite certain — Oregon cannot af ford to have a letdown if they hops to topple the Golden Bears from Berkeley. Kidnaped?

Seems that Lonnie Stiner had told the boys to take a vacation Friday and relax — to take it easy. Kisselburgh was first missed at 10 a.m. No one could find him anywhere in town. Ho had a date with his girl at 11 but stood her up. Lunchtime came and went, but still no Kisselburgh. By this time the whole campus was buzzing with rumors of accidents that had bc fallen the missing star. Searching parties were formed and the town was turned over from end to end in an attempt to locate the wandering Kisselburgh. The af ternoon dragged on as the excite ment grew to a mild form of hysteria. Finally at 6 p.m., the ob ject of search idly wandered into his fraternity house asking what all the excitement was about. Where had he been? Just down to the coast with some of the boys for a nice quiet day—as per Stin er’s orders! If present rates of increase con tinue, it is estimated that there will soon be a proportion of two men to one woman on the Oregon campus. Duck Gridders Leave Today for Cal Fracas TACKLER Bob Davis, Oregon guard, has been one of the mainstays of the Duck line and one of the greatest offensive threats against coast conference opponents. He leaves today with the Oregon traveling squad to meet the California Bears Saturday.

Kappas, the defending champions are still in the running and still the team to beat. This year's con tenders to blackout the KKG champs are the veteran AOPi team and Orides squad. The last year's runner-ups, Susies are fighting to reach the finals again. Bowling is the newest topic in feminine sports line. At a meeting of the WAA Wednesday the rep resentatives reported that the coeds were in favor of intra-house competition. Each women's organ ization will have a fine women keggling team, and the matches are scheduled to start soon after the volleyball wind-up. * * * Instead of hearing Paul Robe son in concert Thursday night uni versity students might have been witnessing Paul Robeson the box er in a championship bout. It seems that Mr. Robeson when de ciding upon a career was debat ing between a boxing profession or a singer. This week’s spotlight shines on Robin Nelson, versatile university coed. For the past three years this slender lass has been the star of the Chi Omega's intra-house teams. She has been the captain and star of Chi O volleyball, basket ball, and baseball teams. She is a member of the University hockey team, and she plays her left wing position with professional skill. In the winter she abandons her hock ey guards and sticks to pick up the slalom trail and skis off with the honors. Orides Plan Dessert Orides members who wish to at tend the Mother's dessert next Monday may sign up with Mrs. Seifert any time beginning this afternoon until Monday noon.
