Pi Phis Prove
Pigskin Packers
The old campus has changed.
Yep, it sure has changed. This
personage has seen some weird
doings in his two summers of ex
istence, but if anybody had told
him that girls actually played
football at Oregon, he would
have banged them on the head
with his rattle.
Seeing is believing, however,
and when the bizarre spectacle is
unfolded before a fellow’s eyes
not once; but three or four times,
he just naturally has to come
around and own up to the facts.
You don’t believe it even yet?
Well, the place is the lawn west
of the libe; the time is any eve
ning either before or after sup
per, and the players—well, hold
your breath, fellas—the players
are some of those cuddly, femi
nine-appearing, demure (?) Pi
Phis, no less.
Furthermore, these ardent
Amazons don’t just stand there,
mouths agape, making lady-like
passes at the ball accompanied
by even more lady-like yelps and
screams. Two or three of ’em
can sling that spheroid like Sam
my Baugh himself. And a couple
can kick so adroitly and vigor
ously that the soldiers who gen
erally form their companions and
opponents have to scramble back
ward like fury to pull down that
■nil!
It appears that a dam good
six-man—pardon me, six-women
—team might be made up of some
of these lusty lassies. Bobby Van
deneynde has the makings of a
good quarterback, and a sturdy
forward wall might be composed
of Doris Laken, Dorothy Coy
kenrall, and Pat Swanson.
"Blocking back” posts might go
to Pat McCormick and Margaret
Cordon. With this team Mr.
Stagg, the "grand old man of
football” would lose 20 years in
as many seconds.
The first yearbook published
by a military organization on the
University of Texas campus will
come out in mid-February when
the University naval ROTC dis
tributes its 70-page annual.
