Louis Cardinals and the New Vork Yankees meet today, after one day for traveling, in the Yankee stadium in New York for the third game in the 1912 world .series. Tlic Cardinals, as well ns the 'National league in general, felt yesterday that they hail the Yanks, who are out for their fourth series pennant, worried—especially after their near victory as a result of a four-run rally in the last inn ing of the first game and the 4 to 3 victory Thursday. Yankee manager, Joe McCar thy’s certain for meundsman to day, will be Spud Chandler; while St. Louis' manager, South worth has to choose between his two top southpaws, Max Lanier and Ernie White. White Feels Great There is a probability that White would chuck because he had told Southworth Thursday night that his arm felt great and he was ready for anything- the Yanks had to offer. Oregon’s Joe Gordon has a good chance of being the goat of this series. He struck out five times for nine trips to the plate, and got one hit over sec ond base, where Walker Coo per hanged a double to score the first two St. Louis runs Thursday. The two squads, while enroute from St. Louis to New York, didn’t have the traveling condi tions they are accustomed to or dinarily. They received a warn ing from Washington that they would have to travel just the same as anybody else, and they apparently did.

Paul Washke, campus intra mural director, has urged full co operation in this program, to tie in with the mass PE setup that has caused so much comment. Touch football has proven to be one of the most popular intra mural events, but more and more are urged to come out this year, and full cooperation is expected. There has been no volleyball schedule announced yet, but it will begin as soon as the football is played off and in the same manner as last year. There will be two leagues, “A" and "B".

Oregon Underdogs In Cougar ‘Jinx'Tilt By FRED TREADGOLD Jinx-smashing intentions combined with hopes of uproot ing the Cougar “victory garden” which was so carefully planted last week, were uppermost in Duck varsity men’s minds preparatory to the opening whistle of the Oregon Washington State tilt in Pullman today. Game time is listoA as 2 o'clock. ™ Only once in the 20-game rivalry over the past** 40-year period have the Ducks grabbed off a victory on Rogers field. De spite the forlorn outlook which this past record presents, .John Warren's gang of 28 gridders felt confident that they would ride out of the contest on the satis fying end of the score. Because of their brilliant showing against Stanford last week, the unbeaten Cougars were on the fat end of betting odds. Babe Hollingbery watched his boys turn in a commend able 6 to 0 win at the Pal Alto stadium. This placed the Stat ers on an even footing with Oregon State as top teams in the circuit to date. Special attention will have to be given Halfback Jay Stoves by the Duck defense. Stoves was the thorn in Stanford's side with his trusty right arm. He has made Cougar fans forget Billy Sewell’s absence. Kennedy Big Gun Another big gun in the WSC backfield is Bob Kennedy, bruis ing fullback who gets out of his tracks with despatch.. Combin ing Kennedy with the versatile Stoves, Hollingbery has a hard running twosome. Oregon’s top-flight line will have its work cut out in fac ing the behemothic 'Washing ton State forward wail. King pins among the Cougar “big seven” are End Nick Susoeff, Center Bill Remington, and Guard Bill Ward. Susoeff has been named on several prema ture all-coast lineups. Counter-balancing the capable Washington State backfield, “Honest John" Warren, Duck mentor, has two units, either of which he might shoot at the Hol lingberymen. The regular start ing group consists of Len Surles, quarterback; Tom Roblin and Kenny Oliphant, halfbacks; and Roy (Tippy) Dyer, fullback. Sophs May Start Supplementing this veteran quartet, Warren has an all-sopho more bunch of kids which he might throw at the Cougars. News sources, reliably close to the coaching staff, had it that Warren might in this younger backfield wear down the WSC resistance before shooting in the above-named foursome. At quarterback for this sec ond-year unit is 200-pound Ray Blatchley; Halfbacks Bobby Reynolds, colored lad who showed up well against St. Marys; and Scotty Heeds, light but aggressive speedster; and at fullback, the hard-hitting Bill Davis. The line will probably stack up as previously. That means Jim Shephard at left, Ed Moshof sky at left tackle, Floyd Rhea, left guard; Steve Bodner, center; Val Culwell, right guard; Dick Ashcom, right tackle; and Russ Nowling, right end. Clamped Headlock Last year the Cougars clamped a headlock on the Ducks, making them holler “uncle,” and went home with a 3 to 0 triumph. In 1940 the two clubs fought to a (Please turn to page five) Three P.C.C. Grid Battles Rage Today By BILL STRATTON This week sees the second in this year’s Pacific coast confer ence football schedule, with both Oregon teams rated as under dogs. Washington State is fa vored over the Webfoots, while California is expected to ovq,^^ come Oregon State. I Washington State’s victory over the Indians last week made them favorites over the Ducks, but Oregon's close battle against Tex Oliver's aviators in Portland last week, makes the odds close. Although Oregon State beat Montana last Saturday, they are rated under the California Bears. California has a gang of burly sophomores that appear plenty potent, and the Orangemen are scheduled for a rough time. Southern California is rated over Pest Welch’s Washington Huskies, but the odds are close and anything can happen. The Huskies beat little College of the Pacific last week, but this is Welch’s initial1 test as a confer ence coach. Other games scheduled— aW* though not conference tilts—ai^P UCLA vs. Navy Pre-Flight at Los Angeles, Stanford vs. Santa Clara at Palo Alto, and Montana vs. Brigham Young at Missoula. Tex Oliver’s all - American packed St. Mary's Pre-Flight team is rated over UCLA, with two victories and no losses to their credit; Montana, who beat Brigham Young 20 to 7 last year, should come through with an other victory this season; while the ever-consistent Santa Clara aggregation is favored over Stan ford.
