ASTU’s Trounce Cavalry
28 to 0 Sunday Afternoon
By LOREN SHANK
The ASTU squad trounced the 104th Cavalry team 28 to 0
Sunday afternoon before a crowd of 3000 Coos Bay football
fans. However, the wide margin does not portray the true su
periority of the ASTUs over the cavalry team. The field was
muddy and a truck load of sand was dumped on the center field
to cover the slippery clay but still it offered little resistance to
Loach Warren s mighty team.
Early in the first quarter Van
dor, right end, intercepted a lat
eral from the cavalry team to
run 60 yards for the first touch
down of the game. When the kick
for the extra point was blocked
Peterson grabbed the ball and
pushed it over for the point.
A few minutes later Shafer
ws!k around his left end to score
another touchdown. The place
ment kick failed.
60-Yard March
In the second quarter the Brain
busters started a 60-yard march
which ended when Shafer took
a j^ass on the 20-yard line from
sh and went the rest of the
Way to make the score 19 to 0.
Midway in the third period the
left end dropped lack leaving Pe
terson eligible for a pass; he lat
eraled to Holsheimer, center, who
carried the ball 60 yards for an
other touchdown. The extra point
was made when Greenberg ran
around right end.
Tii the foui'th quarter with the
ball resting on the cavalry 21
yard line, a bad pass from cen
ter sent Johnsonbaugh into his
end zone where he was caught
for a safety and two more points.
The ASTUs made 142 yards
rushing aftd 174 passing, alto
gether good for 11 first downs.
The cavalry made 36 yards rush
>n ancJ 21 yards passing with 2
first downs.

Needs Aid
There is serious danger that the
Red Cross bandage rolling will
have to be drastically reduced or
stopped altogether, unless new
instructors can be obtained, Miss
Carole Wicke, chairman of the
committee, stated Monday.
Any girl who has at least 10
hours of bandage rolling is re
quested to go to the Red Cross
room on the third floor of Ger
linger and contact Miss Wicke.
They will be given a refresher
course, rather than the regular
lS-hour instructor's course.

put in rolling bandages, with
223 2 hours. Alpha Delta Pi was
second with 1932 hours; and Del
ta Delta Delta third with 163i
hours.
Hours are from 3 to 5 on Tues

12 on Saturday.
Infirmary Gains
New Army Space
The army-requested construc
tion of additional wards in the in
firmary is nearing completion,
according to Mr. D. L. Lewis, su
perintendent of the University
physical plant. Because of army
regulations requiring a certain
percentage of beds in proportion
to the number of students, two
12-bed wards have been built in
the basement of the health ser
vice building.
Although the prevalent short
age of material and labor has de
layed the work, the wards look
spic and span. The rooms will be
used primarily for the convales
cents who are not in need of
strict hospitalization.
This addition will make a total
of 50 beds available for the sol
diers and civilian University stu
dents. Mrs. Henrietta Hilton, hos
pital supervisor, will he in charge
of the annex.
