Signs With Pros Bob Caviness, former University of Oregon basketball and baseball slij.v. and outfielder for a Eugene semi-pro team was signed this sum mer by the Portland Beavers of the Pacific Coast league. He will play for a reported salary of nearly $-100 a month. Last year he was signed by the Cincinnati 1 Beds and worked out with their j farm club, the Birmingham Barons jot' the Southern league until he de j veloped a sore arm and was given an unconditional release. SSE8 f t mm. ws&sssat* Gil Roberts, right tackle, is expected to see action against the Huskies at Seattle in Ore gon’s first conference tilt in three years. Garden Bid Assured UO Maple Five While talking to Basketball Chief Howard “Hobby” Hobson the other day he gave us little pre season newspaper information on the 45-46 outlook. “The outlook on paper is fine at the present time and with an in flux of freshmen to look forward to, competition should be hot and heavy, said Hobson,” Coach Hobson has received in vitation from Madison Square Garden in New York and also an invitation to compete in an invi tational tournament at Chicago. These invitations are now pending before the conference committee and' nothing is at all definite about the games. Strong: on Paper On paper the squad looks very strong, what with all of the 44-45 squad back except Forward Del Smith from Rainier. This team was composed of Jim Bartelt, guard: Captain Bob Hamilton, guard; Ken Hays, center; Del Smith, forward; and Dick Wilkins, forward. Wth this, group of players and a few reserves this almost inex perienced squad managed to cap ture the Northern Division Cham pionship and later the Far Western NCAA Championship under the apt handling of Coach John War ren. Vets Will Return Now that the war is over and they are discharging servicemen all over the hemisphere W'e may get back some of our ex-players who have been doing their part. With the biggest share of last year's team on hand and the pros pect of some veterans from the service we may look forward to a pretty fair team, at least on paper. REVISION OF THE DRAFT LAW went on the shelf of the senate military committee to wait while measures aimed to induce army-navy enlistments get a trial. There are eight generals among the alumni of Ohio State univer sity. By BOB CHAPMAN One week from today an inexperienced Webfoot grid eleven open their 1945 season against the Navy V-12 arid civilian Washington Huskies in Seattle. Between now and the initial clash, marking Oregon’s return to the Pacific Coast Collegiate ranks after a three year leave of absence, coach “Tex” Oliver and his staff plan to hold three scrimmage sessions before an nouncing the 28-man traveling squad. Competition Keen Competition is high for start ing' berths and at the present time first string positions are held by the following: Left end; alternat ing, Bill Pickins, 200, and Mark Hathaway, 195; left tackle, Harry Edwards, 210; left guard Bill Kauffman, 200; center, Bill Ander son, 190; right guard, Harry Reiton, 218; right tackle, Gil Roberts, 230; right end, Bob And erson, 190; quarter, Bill Abbey, 168; left half Bobby Reynolds, only returning letterman, 185; right half, Walter Donovan, 170; and fullback, Deane Bond, 192. None of the positions on the squad are cinched because every day injuries, new players, and im provement in reserve material con tinues to change the picture. Ore gon's turnout was 23 the opening day of practice but each day has seen an increase in the squad and the total now stands at 61. Before freshman registration two scrim mages were held daily but since then Oliver has cut morning prac tice. Reserves Rugged Second string gridders (Bd; ^ ote)—They really give the startersW* a rugged time in scrimmage and don’t be surprised if several of these fellows make the first string . in the near future often referred to as the “Reds" include; ends, John Ohmer, Dale Warberg, Joe Marion, Gordon Allbright; tackles, Daniel Neuman, Bill Morin; guards Steve Mezzera, Tony Vernonda; center Neil Diess; quarter, D. Bob Ward well; halfbacks, De Wayne John son, Don Tayler; fullback, Andy Bodner and Dale Bargett. Bob Santee and Ken Hume, were commissioned second lieuten ants in the marine corps recently after completing training at Quuniti, Virginia. They both attended the University in 1942-43. Bol) (right), was a member of Delta Upsilon, and Ken was affiliated with Alpha Tau Omega. ^llllllllllllllllllllllllll!lllllllll!lillllllllllllll!llllll!llllll!lllllllllll!lllllllllliM>lllllllllllllllllllllllllljt|)|jll!lllllllllIII|lllll||||||!l!||l!l||||l||||||!|||!|||||||||!|ll||||||lU|||||||||||[||||||||)|U|H.||||||||[l!S Duck Tracks King Football has started to take hold on the campus what with fiis return this fall. It sounds good to hear the yells of the players as they run out on the scrimmage field. Later you will probably hear these yells turn into moans and groans as the scheduled workout .comes to an end and the players manage to reach the dressing room by their own power. This is a short word picture of what you might expect to find at a Webfoot football practice. Coach Oliver and his staff are really going to have to work a miracle as their first game is with Washington in Seattle a week from today. * * Washington has ten returning lettermen plus sixteen Naval trainees who have had varying degrees of experience. The point that puts Wash ington in the number one spot is the ability to field two experienced clubs. The Huskies are also very lucky in the practice department, as they have been working out together all summer and have thus been able to determine the weakness of any players that there may be. This long practice period will also have toughened up the players against any in juries that they might sustain during their coming gridiron schedule. One thing will be certain though, regardless of the competition that is facing the Lemon and Green eleven they will go down fighting. Ore gon’s team may be an inexperienced eleven but that won’t make any difference in their fighting spirit. Oregon will run into similiar situations at both UCLA and California. - Both these California teams are making first class use of all the foot ball material that they are able to find in the military personnel attend ing these two schools. Any rivals that play schools with such setups wiftx* be definitely asking for it and getting it, probably. Oregon can take it, only the first game will be able to show us how they will make out in the other department. We will be pulling for the Webfeet all the way and we hope that the rest of the school will feel apd do the same.
