Lone Letterman Reports ■_____ar^k King Football has returned to Oregon and Coach Tex Oliver is whipping into shape a very inex perienced Lemon and Green squad this year. The bright spot in the picture is the return of ex-Webfoot letter man halfback Bob Reynolds. The rest of the squad will be made up of 4-Fs and freshmen without varsity experience. Oregon’s first clash will be with Washington in Seattle Sept. 29. The Webfeet will play successive Saturday afternoon tilts against Idaho in Eugene, Oregon State at Corvallis, Washington State in Eugene, UCLA in Los Angeles, Washington in Portland, WSC at Pullman, and California at Berk ley. Thanksgiving week will be vacant before the final big game against Oregon State here Decem ber 1. The potentialities of the Webfeet cannot be known until the first game -h possibly later. Two candidates for end are on the sidelines with injuries. Dale Warberg and Abe Hathaway. Full back Walt Donovan and quarter back Terry Metcalf also have been slightly injured. Thirty-one candidates reported far the first workout about two weeks ago, and they have shown marked improvement in succeed ing sessions. Fifty-eight candi dates have appeared so far. Four new men. two guards, a tackle ami an end reported on Tuesday, and six had turned out Monday. Entrance exams have conflicted with practice times this week and have robbed the squad of valuable training. Despite the lack of experience, Webfoot fans predict the squad w ill make a creditable showing. At least early predictions point out that the Lemon and Green will meet teams that are up against similar odds in the northern divi sion.

OSC Prepares for First Football Clash Sept. 29 Our country cousins at Corvallis arc preparing their squad for their first football game which is sche duled for Sept. 29. This game is a home contest with tlie Camp Beale Bears so the Beavers have the spirit on their side. However, the' Army team will have the benefit of older, more experienced players, and they won’t be hampered by any man power shortage. Lon Stiner is starting his cam paign with only one returning letterman, Bob Stevens, who is slated for the fullback'position. Helping Stiner at his job are Quentin Greenough and Bill How ard. Greenougli is an ex-all-coast center with the Beaver eleven back in ’41. Howard is an ex-player from the University of Southern California, where he filled in the fullback position. Two former Rook football men have turned out for practice Lew Hassman and Harvey Cutts. Hass mau was a numeral winner as a guard on the 1942 Rook eleven. And Cutts played center on the 1939 freshman club. :xt Hal Buddy, a basketball letter man, i,s a leading candidate for end, and John Becharas is out for quarterback. Becharas played in that position on the Wolves in the campus army football league in 1943. The rest of the squad is com posed of former high school play ers and discharged war veterans who are getting their first taste of college football. Contrary to early expectations, Stiner won't be able to use any of the men in the NROTC unit on the campus. A navy rule forbids their taking part in intercollegiate athletics until they have been in the corps on campus for a term.
