Louis Gets Nova In Sixth;
Cosmic Blow Fails to Click
By XOM tiUHiBJNUJK
Granite-headed Lou Nova, the
California man from Mars, was
blasted into a little dream world
-all his own last night, when he
fell beneath the withering blows
of the Brown Bomber, in the
sixth round of the championship
battle at the Polo grounds.
"••All the Yogis from Timbuctu
to Corpus Christi Texas could not
have convinced Joe Louis that
Nova’s much publicized “Cosmic
punch” was the muscle-numbing
winder it was cracked up to be,
although it was given a fair trial
throughout the entire brawl.
Old Style Louis
Nova, it would seem, had the
incorrect mathematical angle cn
his punches, for although he
threw plenty of them most of
them went over the head of the
straight old-fashioned left and
right hooks which were effective
against even such opposition as
Yogi fanatics.
Louis and Nova exchanged
about the same number of blows
in the first four rounds but none
of them proved very potent in
the face of the fact that the bat
tle really started when Nova let
loose a barrage of straight
punches (cosmic and otherwise)
at the slightly-reddened face of
the champion. Louis’ punches did
most of their damage when their
receiver was forced powerless,
into the ropes.
Nova Through
In the eyes of the observer
Nova was through in the middle
of the fifth round when he
emerged slightly groggy after a
devastating right hook by Joe
Louis.
The sixth round was a repeti
tion of the fifth with Nova get
ting weaker until he finally
buckled under a string of left

Intramurals
.Oregon’s intramural sports
program is due to get under
way in the very near future,
according to a report given out
by the Intramural Sports of
fice of the school of physical
education last night. A definite
starting date was not given,
but it was stated that the
house managers would be no
tified sometime this week.
Emphasis on Campus
“Emphasis will be placed this
year on campus rather than in
terhouse sports,” stated Paul
Washke, intramural activities
head. He went on to say that
this did not at all mean a dis
continuation of interhouse sports,
however.
Competition for the 1941-42
program will start with touch
football and will carry through
the fall term with class “A”
and “B” volleyball. The win
ter term will include both “A”
and “B” basketball and hand
ball. Swimming, softball, and
the annual Sigma Delta Psi
track meet will make up the
spring term schedule.
Start Soon
The starting date of the touch
football season will soon be an
nounced and teams having games
scheduled on the first day will be
notified by telephone.
Entry blanks will be sent to
house managers this week and
they must be returned with all
entries by Tuesday, October 7,
at 5:00 p.m.
All organizations not having
athletic managers are request
ed to elect one member to this
office as soon as possible.
With last season’s splendid
turnout as a yardstick, the In
tramural sports department is
expecting a record number of
teams to enter competition this
year.

famed right-hand knockout punch

Nova struggled gamely to rise1

Arthur Donovan, with only one

With all the facts right out in
the open, southern division PCAA
teams appear definitely in the
lead for Rose Bowl honors, but
just in case Oregon beats the
team that beat the team that
beat Stanford, well ... Of course,
the race will be the greatest in
history—just like they said it
would at the beginning of last
season, and also the season be
fore, and the one before that,
followed by the three ’way back.
Apparently, however, the Ida

breather—neither will the OSC
Huskie clash, nor the Cal-Wash

UCLA, nor all the rest all the
way around.

Pledges See Sad Truth
As Houses Settle Down
By BOB WHITELY
Rush week is over . . . and now all the cups can get tarnished
again . . . the good silver can be put away till Homecoming, the
door to the basement can be unlocked so that the pledges can see
what kind of a house they live in. Are permanent improvements made
in the various living organizations during the summer worth mention
mg? Hmmm . . . let’s see.
The Phi Delts have a new rug
and davenport in the front room
and have painted the inside of
their house. Last but not least
. . . they gave “Smokey” a bath
with cashmere bouquet.
Up at the ATO house the ever
present “tub” has been remodeled
to accommodate two freshmen in
stead of the usual one. There
seems to be an “unlimited na
tional emergency,” necessitating
tubbing two at a time. New lino
leum upstair, painting the out
side, and a new landing rug fin
ish the deal.
Betas’ Kitchen
The Betas state that they have
remodeled their kitchen, and can
get into hot water any time they
want to now with a new water
heater. Also they won’t have to
slide down the stairs from third
to first . . . they got new rugs on
the steps.
The Delts remark that they’ve
been whitewashed over the sum
mer (the house I mean) and that
a new chandelier is hanging
downstairs. It’s a good thing, coz
about 40 Abe Lincolns were get
ting their college education read
ing by the light of the fire last
spring term.
The Chis Psis painted their
house inside and out, and they
put in a new lawn and painted
the sea wall algae green.
Girls’ Houses
As far as the gals are con
cerned, it looks like the Thetas
went hog wild this summer with
new beds, new curtains in the din
ing room, new curtains, lamps,
etc., for the living room, a new
kalsomine job in all the rooms,
and a brand new closet for Sue
Sawyer.
The Pi Phis brag about their
smoking room, new furniture for
the den, and 30 pledges.
The Kappas no longer have to
throw their cigarettes out at the
piggers any more . . . they added
a smooth new smoking room onto
the house this summer besides a
new paint job.
The Alpha Phis have practic
ally gotten a new house. Let’s see
. . . a brand new den . . . coffee
tables ... a couple of love seats
in the living room, new showers
upstairs, and the bathroom is
painted a new eggshell blue . . .
(honest, this is what they told
me . . .) the rooms have all been
done over smooth like.
