Hollingberv and his baud of cats from Washington
State will check ihto .Eugene this noon in quest of a few pin
feathers from the Suspecting Ducks. With him Ilollingbery
brings one of the best shows in sports the northwest has to
offer. That show being in the person of the unpredictable Buck
“Bucket BootcrJ' Bailey.
Anyone who has: seen Washington State play baseball
will never forg-et Buck. His moaning on the bench and his
inaa gestures mignt ne
> enough to cause a mild
riot, but his bucket boot
ing tops everything.
But hero us •what few do
know. Buck is the line coach
for the Pullman football team,
and he ain't a bad one either.
From the reports that drifted
southward after Washington
State got through mauling the
Beavers, one could easily im
agine the performance given
by the Cougar front wall.
Show Called Off
But here’s the gripe. Buck
■won’t he on the Washington
State bench Saturday after
noon. Ilollingbery fears for
B e safety of his men and
won t let Buek sit on the
BUCK BAILEY
bench. li Buck kicks -water buckets high into the bleachers
when one of his pitchers throws the wrong pitch in a base
b.'U {tame, heaven knows what he'd do if he saw Meeham
break away on the "boot leg" or any other play. Neither bench,
equipment, nor water wagon would be safe from his physical
show of emotion.
Our man Wally Hunter was up in the Palouse hills over
the weekend and dropped over to the stadium to watch
the Cougars. "Wally says he didn’t know if it was the
freshmen or varsity practicing till suddenly the hill vibrat
ed with a tremendous yell. ’Twas Buck so Wally knew it
was the varsity.
Meeham vs. Sewell
1 wonder if someone could, in somewhat less than three thou
sand words, give me a hint as to just how Mr. Williamson
.figures out his football ratings. After last Saturday's game
they were on the coast, Santa Clara, Washington State, Oregon
Slate, Stanford. California. Washington, UCLA, Oregon, and
Southern California. Ilow does a team with two wins and three
losses like WSC rate the top in the conference over Stanford,
the team that s going to the New Year’s game? And how does
u team like California draw a higher notch than Washington.

triple-threat men,. At the last count Meeham was the top
kicker on the coast, ranked high in rushing totals and had coil

Sewell is one of the best passers on the coast and since

Under Explosive Aerial Barrage
By ART LITCHMAN
Two sensational touchdown drives by the inspired SAEs gave
them a 13 to 0 victory over the highly favored Sigma Nus yesterday
in the championship battle of the 1941 intramural football league.
Slingin’ Oz/.ie Redfield and Bob Farrow paced the brilliant pass
ing attack that whipped the hitherto unbeaten Sigma Nus. Redfield
displayed uncanny accuracy as he threw pass after pass through

the leaky Sigma Nu defense.
Unimpressed by the reputation
the Sigma Nus had established
in previous games, the SAEs
drove 55 yards to their first
touchdown in the first four min
utes of play.
Redfield started things with a
bang after the SAEs had taken
the ball on downs with a 20-yard
sprint around end. Stalled mo
mentarily by two incomplete
passes Redfield dropped back and
cut loose with a 23-yard heave to
Bernie McCudden on the two.
The next play was smothered
for a five-yard loss and then
Redfield fired a bullet pass to
Homer Thomas for the touch
down. Farrow's leaping catch of
the conversion pass was nullified
by a penalty and the SAEs led,
6 to 0.
Sigma Nu Offense Stalls
The powerful Sigma Nu offense
was ham-strung by the loss of
Dick Whitman, the passing ace,
with a bad knee injured in the
game Wednesday night. The
team lacked the fire and drive
that has marked the smooth scor
ing punch all season.
The SAEs roared back to
knock at the goal line again
after Sigma Nil’s Palmer Fall
gren had been forced to punt.
Redfield pitched a flat pass to
Hoyt Tarola for ten yards and
then Tarola made it a first
down on the next play by snag
ging another Redfield aerial.
Bob Ballard sneaked in behind
the secondary to take Ozzie’s
next pass for 25 yards and a first
down on the 15. Ed Nulty then
stepped in and intercepted the
next pass on the five to end the
drive.
Fallgren again was forced to
kick and the SAEs promptly
made 15 yards on a pass from
Redfield to Beckner. Again the
assault was stopped by an inter
ception, this time by Fallgren.
The half ended as Tarola inter
cepted a Sigma Nu pass.
SAEs Tally
The SAEs were right back as
the second half started and scored
their second touchdown on a brief
23-yard drive that followed an
other interception by Tarola.
Cub Callis Churns, Paces
Duck Mermen In Trials
By DON RICHARDSON
Cub Callis, veteran Webfoot
backstroker, pulled a speed blitz
krieg in yesterday’s time trials
at the men’s pool to take top
honors of the afternoon. Close in
his wake during the 150-yard
event was Chuck Nelson, sopho
more speedster.
The second of a series of short
Redfield dropped a short pass
in the arms of Farrow behind
the line of scrimmage and he
picked up 11 yards to the 12.
Ballard then drove eight yards
on a flat pass to the other
side. Farrow took a sharp bul
let pass in the end zone for the
touchdown and then converted
on a looping pass deep in end
zone for the final point.
The SAEs were on the way to
another touchdown when the
final whistle stopped them on the
15-yard' line. Redfield's tremen
dous 55-yard kick had put the
Sigma Nus in a hole and Fall
gren’s punt slid off the side of
his foot and the SAEs had the
ball on the 30-yard. Redfield
pitched a pass to Farrow that
was good for 15 yards. Before
the next play was called the
game ended.
The potent Sigma offense
never could make a sustained
drive and spent most of the af
ternoon in their own territory.

The TJ’ BOWL
11th and Willamete
speed trials proved that Swim*
liiing- Coach Mike Hoyman’s driv
ing training schedule is getting
results, because to a man, the
times were faster than in the
previous meet of last week. Some
of them were better than mid
season times of last year.
Huestis, Smith Switch
An important change in the
lineup has occurred, with Jerry
Huestis and Dick Smith chang
ing places in the breast and free
style events, respectively.
In the freestyle race it was
again sophomore Jack Robinson
who led the way. Dick Allen, vet
eran churner, showed marked
improvement in the 220-yard
event, and seems to be definitely
on the way after a slow early
scason start.
The responsibility of holding
down the breast stroke swim
seems to have fallen on the
broad shoulders of Ralph Hues
tis. His powerful strokes car
ried him down the lanes in
beautiful style far ahead of his
teammates.
Willard Wilson, sophomore
high board artist, did some fancy
flips between races in his first
afternoon appearance of the sea
son. With A1 Sandner and Jack
Dallas lost, it will be up to him
to gain the living points for the
lemon and' green this year.
Real Tesr Pending
Although everything was rosy
yesterday, the real test will come
tomorrow when Hoyman sends
his charges through a grueling
1500 meter grind.
Dissatisfied with the showings
made last week in the distance
trials, the varsity swimming
mentor has given some pretty
definite instructions on how he
wants the races run.
In recognition of his contribu
tion to Cleveland education and
health, Western Reserve univer
sity’s president, Winfred G. Leut
