Ducklings Battle ‘Yardbirds’ Under Lights Tonight in Astoria Web foot Hoopmen Rush Through Scrimmage Drill Rehash of funda lentals was the bill of fare on the menu for Hobby Hobson’s basketball hook ers the past week. TIio veteran Duck mentor is a firm advocate of the belief that rudiments are o^ major importance. Hence, the continued work on the main in gredients of the game. As the team begins to assume some shape, Hobson has been put ting his Galloping Ducks through mild intrasquad scrimmages. An average of about three or four are being conducted a week. Much too early in the season to have any insite on the component parts of his 1941-42 casaba edi tion, Hobby confines his opinion to a simple statement, that they look “fair.” Different combinations have been experimented with by the Duck boss. The ones which Hob son used last night, though not in the least indicative because of the earliness of the season, matched up three sophomores and two juniors against two sopho mores, two juniors, and two sen iors. Temporary Squads One quintet was composed of Rodger Dick and Warren Christ iansen at forwards, Warren Tay lor at center, and Bob Newland and Cliff Anet at guards. The other outfit saw Rolpha Fuhrman and Bob Wren holding down for ward posts, Lloyd Jackson at center, and Don Kirsch and Paul Jackson at guards. Lettermen Archie Marshik and Porky Andrews were both miss ing from workouts Friday. Mar shik, frosh football trainer, ac companied the Oregon yearlings to Astoria for their game Satur day. Andrews went south to an interfraternity meeting at San Francisco. Three sophomores were stand outs in the workouts and for newcomers to varsity category were all the more brilliant. L'oyd Jackson, no relation to diminutive teammate Paul Jackscn as comparison of heights will reveal, the former stretching fi feet 7 inches up ward while Little Paul is al most a foot shorter, looks like he might fit into Hobby’s plans for tall men. Bob Wren, a rug ged forward from Portland, has also showed p’enty in work outs, being of the Bill Borcher type on the backboard. Third of this group of young stei’s claiming his share of the spotlight is Bob Newland, wiry guard from Medford. Newland was top frosh scorer last season and possesses the quickness and aggressiveness that the Oregon backcourt positions demand. Ad Staff to Meet There will be a meeting of the Emerald advertising staff Tues day at 7:15 p.m. in the business office, Helen Flynn, office man ager, announced Friday. Fred May, business manager, will speak. Sigma Nus Dominate All-Stars Champs Place Two; Redfield lop Rating Back By ART LITCHMAN Again this year the Emerald goes out on the proverbial limb by attempting to determine the top football players in the intra mural league. After watching the teams bat tle through a month of slam-bang football we have gone into a hud dle with the crystal ball and the ouji board and emerge with the dream team of the year—we hope.' Runner-up Sigma Nu and the quarter-finalist Phi Delt squad led the teams with four men each on the 24-man squad". The cham pion SAE team landed only two men on the team, much to our surprise. The champions were a smooth working unit without any standout stars, except their great fullback, Ozzie Redfield. ATO, semi-finalist in the tour nament, landed three men on the squad. Zeta hall, Kappa Sigs, and Theta Chi were next with two men each .The remainder of the hon ors were divided among five teams. Galbreaith Outstanding Bill Carney, Sigma Nu, repeat ed his performance of last year and becomes a two-year man at left end. At the other flank a newcomer flashes on the scene. Gabby Galbreaith, Phi Delt, played sensational ball all year and wins our nomination for the outstanding lineman of the sea son. At center, Bill Fugit, ATO, moved up to edge out last year’s starter, Pete Riley. His rugged play in the middle of the line was a big factor in the ATO victor ies. The dream backfield is packed with speedy running and passing backs. This year we have re served a spot for the unsung man of the team, the blocker. Leading the array of talent is Duane “Ozzie” Redfieid, SAE’s brilliant triple-threat spark plug. His passing and running were the backbone of First team Pos Gabby Galbreaith, Phi Delt.RE..

He sparked the Sigma Nus in all of their runaway wins during the season. The injury to his knee in the ATO game was a crippling blow to the Sigma Nu cause. Blocking Back Whitman’s running mate, John ny Bubalo gets the call at one of the halfback spots. His effective blocking and outstanding defen sive work aided the Sigma Nu cause in every game. In the other halfback position Hank Burns, Phi Delt ace, re turns for his second year on the dream team. His passing and Third team Pos Morrie Soloman, Sig Eps.RE Bob Blair, Sherry Ross.C Chuck Heiner, Theta Chi.LE Bob Duden, Beta .Q Joe Wicks, Theta Chi.LH Paul Bocci, ATO .RH Dick Burns, Sigma Chi.F Neil Baumgartner, Phi Delt. ...BB running led the Phi Delt attack in every game. At the new blocking post the third Sigma Nu back, big Ed Nulty, gets the nod. His blocking was one of the fundamental rea sons for the success of the Sigma Nu offense. His defensive work smothered every drive into his territory. Just in case you don’t agree with these choices come around and we will conduct a seminar on the problem. Frosh Clash AgainstArmy Boys Tonight By AL GOULD Oregon’s undefeated Ducklings, 35 strong, left yesterday noon for Astoria where they will battle the soldiers from Fort Stevens to night. The title was just added to the Frosh schedule this week, and the yearlings are determined to keep their record intact. The yearlings will take the field with their big forward wall weak ened by the loss of Marty Feld man, huge 220-pound right guard. They will have to become accus tomed to his absence, however, as Feldman sustained a broken leg in the Washington game and will be on the sidelines for the remainder of the season. Meanwhile, Bill Davis, another casualty, is expected to see some action against the army boys to night. Davis participated in a light workout Thursday, and his infected foot has improved con siderably. Stan Boyd and Lyman Glasgow, both of whom missed several workouts this week, be cause of injured knees, have also recovered sufficiently to make the trip and will undoubtedly play a lot of ball tonight. Offensive tactics have occu pied much of the yearlings’ time this week, and they will probably show even more improvement in this phase. No information is available on the Fort Stevens outfit so the Ducklings will be up against an unknown quality. However, in the military department’s ever ad vancing athletic program, they spare no expense in giving the service men every chance to play ball. In addition, the army en campments are jammed with ex collegiate and high school ball players. Therefore, it is certain that the frosh won’t be playing any amateur football players in their fracas tonight. The frosh will stay at the Fort Stevens barracks while on the coast and return to Eugene Sun day morning.
