Cornel! Gives Frosh Plays;
Scrimmage Wednesday
By BIIX STUATTON ami

“As the opportunity comes,
we’re going to shove you in
there,” were the words of fresh
man football coach, Anse Cor
nell as he opened the second
week of practice after he had
been absent since last Thursday.
Cornell traveled to Pullman with
the varsity the latter part of the
week, and assistant coach, Ray
Segale, took on the burden of tu
toring the yearlings.
Some of the frosh were won
dering why they hadn't had a
chance to show their wares, and
the opening lines of this story
was Cornell’s answer, lie also
explained that there was little
time before their first game
with the Oregon State Hooks
in Portland, and that as soon
as the frosh were in good
shape, the process of segrega
tion would begin.
He went on to explain that it
was impossible to pick a team
"from a group of (lit fellows that
were still conditioning, and that
perhaps the better part of this
week would still he devoted to
conditioning.
Hugged Selection
A rugged selection of squads
Jtas been made, however, and the^
fiery frosh mentor has given
them their first group of plays
that have been tested in dummy
scrimmages since practices be
gan a week ago.
From all appearances, it is a
rough selection, because it is
evident that there are men on
every team that are potential
candidates for a first string'
berth.
Cornell gave the yearlings
some new plays last night and
will probably keep adding new
ones the rest of this week and
until the first team and reserves
are named.

Win in ’42 Openers
Intramural touch football rolled into the ’42 season on the
IM fields yesterday with a wide variety of games; a lop-sided
win, an overtime, and a forfeit. The Phi Delt rolled over the
Phi Sigs 18 to 0, Alpha topped the Pi Kaps in an overtime, 1
to 0; the Sigma Chis nosed the Zeta Hallers 6 to 0, and Sigma
Nu won by default.

Phi Delts Trounce
Phi Sigs, 18-0
An air-rhinded Phi Delt squad,
with Hank Burns doing the hon
ors, roared over the Phi Sigs,
scoring in each quarter except the
last.
Burns, with plenty of protec
tion in an abundance of block
ers, threw the ball at leisure, con
necting to Gordy McGowan for
two touchdowns and to Marty
Schedler for the other tally.
The Phi Sigs seemed helpless
against the air attack staged by
the Phi Delts and the winners
moved up field at will.
The Alder street boys served
up little themselves in the way of
an offensive, gaining only some
twenty yards.
Injuries in the Phi Sigs teams
slowed down the caliber of their
play greatly and cost them scor
ing opportunities. Eddie Wyatt
and Ralph Kramer both left the
game early with injuries.
The game was r ough and tum
ble with particularly hard block
ing featuring the tussle.

Zeta Hall, 6-0
With a passing attack that
swept the dorm men from their
feet, Sigma Chi scored the lone
touchdown in their game with
Zeta hall by dint of a 30-yard
pass from Eibert to Haines in
the end zone during the first
quarter. This culminated a pass
ing drive of six straight comple
tions.
Besides the touchdown, neither
team threatened although both
made long gains throughout the
game.
Outstanding men of the game
were Bradshaw for the Sigma
Chis and Reynolds for the Zeta
men.

Alpha Hall Wins
In Overtime, 1-0
By gaining 25 yards in an over
time period, and intercepting
their opponents’ pass in their half
of the overtime, Alpha hall won
out over Phi Kappa Psi by a
score of 1-0.
Because of four scoreless quar
ters, the game was forced into
an overtime period to decide the
winner. In such a situation each
team is given four downs on the
mid-stripe, and the winning team
is the one which gains the most
yardage in that period of Lime.

Cougars Claw Ducks, 7-0, Stoves,
Kennedy Duo Just Too Powerful
By JOE MILLER
A few days ago when I said
that when Commissioner Edwin
Atherton gave Washington State
back Jay Stoves and Bob Ken
nedy, he gave them back a whole
football team, I little realized
how the University of Oregon
Webfoots were going to feel the
truth of said statement.
The Bitter Truth
The bitter truth dawned last
Saturday afternoon on Rogers
field in Pullman when the Cou
gars beat us, 7-0. Two boys beat
the Ducks—the aforementioned
Stoves and Kennedy. Oregon
wasn't playing far below the ball
they are capable of playing, but
there wasn't a line in the coun
try that could stop Bashin’ Bob
the way he was driving on Satur
day. After the game both John
Warren and Babe Hollingbery
said he was the greatest all
around fullback in America.
Stoves was dynamite in dif
ferent form. His long legs ate
140 yards around the Oregon
flanks. He averaged 11 yards
per punt return, quick-kicked
the Webfoots 65 yards into a
hole they never got out of, set
up the touchdown, and did not
make one single mistake in his
field-generalship. Quite a back!
Oregon showed nothing in the
way of offensive spark, save for
an lS-yard sprint through the
center by Tom Roblin—dragged
down from behind by Mr. Stoves.
They had litle chance to open up
offensively—being deep in the
hole from the consistent Cougar
punting.
Koblin Boots Once
Sophomores Bill Davis and Bob
Reynolds looked effective in spots,
but there was no dangerous
threat outside of Roblin, who
gave everything in defeat. His
tremendous 87-yard punt in the
third quarter was the longest
kick in America so far this year.
It put the Cougars in a hole that
they easily got out of—they
seemed to be good enough to
make all the yards they wanted
when they needed them.
Oregon’s line was not the
same one that held the Pre
Flighters to 49 yards net
rushing—both in personnel and
ability. Steve Bodner missed a
good part of the fray—the el
bow activities of YYSC's Brun
nigan and Ward having quite a j
bit to do with this, and Dick
Ashconi was out three quarters
with a cartilage injury. His sub
Merritt Ivufferman remained in
Eugene to take a West Point
examination, and Third String
ers Chuck Elliott and Cliff
Giffin were rushed into the
breach with Center Johnny
Daniels.
We were clearly outplayed, but
the lone touchdown that the Cou
gars got was highly questionable
nobody but the officials seemed
to think it was a score. After the
game Kennedy said that he
didn t know whether he was in
the end zone or not when he fum-‘ \
bled, and Scrappy Rhea recov
ered on the three-yard line. Per
haps the movies of the show' will
clear up the question to every
one's satisfaction.
