Nary a weekend passes but wliat an eager football follower Can’t scan the results in the Sunday paper and find gobs of teams that came under the rope winners by scores such as 7 to G, 14 to 13, and such. We take a quick look at the score and •dly remark, “Boy! That was a close one,’’ and then think nothing more of it. But there are two sport followers in Eugene ■who have been giving the idea some serious thought and have come up with some startling results. Ted Harris, local sports enthusiast, and Austin Colbert, All-Coast when he played tackle for Oregon a good many • years ago, were discussing the tender subject yesterday and between the two came up with some novel ideas. A New Method Ted was all in favor of cutting the whole thing out and just keeping track of the touchdowns, but Colbert had another Idea. Colbert suggested that the drop kick, or place kick, should be abolished and replaced with some other method of getting that all-important extra point, llis suggestion was: after the touchdown place the ball down on the three-yard line and let the team that scores the touchdown shove it over from scrim mage in any way that they saw fit. This idea didn’t seem so bad to Ted but lie still had a lot ot get off his chest. His first and biggest pet peeve was that too many teams are evenly matched but one takes the cake because they made the after-touchdown kick good. A Tale Tall While on the Subject of kicking Colbert dug up a tale that ■would put to shame even those told by Paul Bunyan, and yet lie swears it’s true. So if you have the dash of salt ready, this is it. In, 190tf t,he University of Oregon defeated Idaho 27 to 21. Nothing tall about that but Colbert said that Oregon won the game without making a touchdown. Every Oregon jpoiut was made via the field goal method. That adds up to a. total of 9 field goals, all which Dudley Clark, Oregon back, t*ooted himself. That's one for the books. The boys had some more changes they would like to see developed. Ted started the idea and before the two were 4 through they had a new regulation figured out for the • boys who draw up football rules each year. The new ruling, i as suggested, “was that each football squad be limited to 30 or 33 players, a regulation very similar to that used in • major league baseball. This restriction wouldn’t apply to practices in which the coach could have as many players ‘ cavorting as he pleased. But at game time he would be 1 allowed only the alloted number of men on the bench in uniform. Interest and Cooperation Intramurals start today. This column doesn’t think: that the •consideration due this sport program has been given. Tpo few people realize that |hc participation in this activity is far in excess of that in varsity and freshman, athletics, both in num ber and in material worth. It majr be more fun to watch the football team play, but even though it’s your team, it isn’t quite the same as watching the boys from your house play. The organization of sopie of the teams entered in the • intramural prograih has been very poor in the last several • years. Many teams have entered and never shown up to 1 play their scheduled games. Most of the violators have ! been the independent team, and the oversight has been 4 their own Waterloo because they are in a logical position, • with all the talent they oould import, to take a command 1 ing position in this activity. The Greeks have organized • their participation in this sport and have, year after year, • run off with the honors. This column would like to see better cooperation. Tiid-bits Seen at the Stanford-Oregon game a week ago Saturday were .Kog •lohnson and Jake Leicht. Hog Johnson says lie is going to return to Oregon winter quarter to attend school so he will l»e eligible next year. ‘‘Hook" Robertson, catcher on the frosh team two years ago, was offered a contract with Tucson, Ariz., H Cincinnati chain club this summer.

The Ducks enter the abode of Cal’s surly Trojans on the heels of a 33 to 0 drubbing administered by a terrific Ohio State team, and YANKEE FLASH Oregon-born, Oregon-bred, and University - of - Oregon - educat ed Joe Gordon, whose seven hits in the World Series (including a double, triple, and homer) were potent in the New York Yan kees’ defeat of Lippy Leo Du rocher’s Brooklyn, four games to one. Girls Will Play Hockey This Week at 4 o'Clock Members of the intramural girls’ hockey club will hold meet ings on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 4 to 5 p.m. in back of Gerlinger, announced Miss Janet Woodruff, instructor, yesterday. Equipment for the game is available in Gerlinger and WAA checks will be given for partici pation in both tournament and practice games. The two tourna ment clubs, Evergreens and Cas cades, meet Saturdays at 10 a.m. Barry s boys would like nothing better than to saw the legs from under Oregon’s hobby horse. The Trojans and Ducks both have one scalp nailed to their victory belt, but Cal’s win was a little more impressive. Oregon State met and lost to SC while Idaho felt the fangs of Tex Oliver’s men. Teams Even If one goes by facts and fig ures the two teams could be rated about even. Things like Oregon’s last ditch battle against Stanford can’t easily be forgotten—nor can the Trojan dynamite that exploded in the final seconds against OSC be overlooked. The Webfoots will enter the game in fair physical condition, as will the Trojans. Val Culwell, guard, and Kenny Oliphant are the only Oregons bench-locked by injuries. Southern Cal’s “Monu ment to Man,” tackle and cap tain, Bob De Lauer was injured and probably will not see action. Center Dick Danehe, and Half back Bill Bundy are others on the SC injured list. Last night the varsity worked but with the freshmen and every body got a look at Southern Cal’s offense, which Manny Vezie who scouted the SC-Ohio State game, says is powerful. According to Vezie the Trojans were caught off guard and the Ohio Staters were off on the up beat and were never headed. As “Gentleman Manny” put it, “those Southern Cal boys will be out there Saturday with that old glitter in their eyes— and we know Soutfiprn Cal, they aren’t used to things like that happening to them.” Vezie further said that Coach Sam Barry was forced to juggle his lineups against the lads from the east and that this weakened the Trojans.
