Welcome
Grid men
Throngs of Oregon students
shouted a lusty welcome to the
Webfoot football eleven Sunday
night when the team arrived in
Eugene from the Washington
game. Order of O-men corraled
modest gridmen and herded them
back to the makeshift “stage” and
mike as the team tried to slip
through the crowd.
After the hubbub had quieted
down, Coach Tex Oliver voiced the
appreciation of the team for the
reception at the station and com
mented, “If a college can back a
losing team, then the team realizes
they have something to fight for.”
If the enthusiasm continues,
Oliver added, the team can't help
but win.
Acting captain Elliott (L’il
Abner) Wilson was brought in on
the shoulders of the basketball
team from his hiding place in the
crow and excited a loud and en
thusiastic cheer. He also expressed
the team’s appreciation for the
homecoming rally.
Big Gil Roberts remarked that
the team was surprised by the
cheering crowd and had expected
to be met by clubs and pitch-forks.
For an hour before the arrival
of the train, students gathered at
the station to warm up with songs
and yells under Yell King Mickey
Davies and the rally squad. A few
groups carried signs reading “Wel
come Ducks.”
Afterwards, student cars formed
an impromptu procession up Will
amette street and to the campus.

All Coast Conference v
Opening Games Fought
By DAVE GOSS
Coast conference football got
off to a keyed up start Saturday
when eight teams played their
initial grid battles of the sche
duled season.
As was predicated by the editor,
TJSC blanked the University of
California 13-2. Two breaks helped
the Trojans make their markers.
In the first quarter Southern Cal
intercepted a pass on the foi’ty
yard line. Ten plays later, left half
Bob Morris, cut over right tackle
for nine yards to cross paydirt for
the first touchdown. Walt Mc
Cormack, center, made it 7-0 with
a placekick. Recovering a fumble
on the Bears 24 yard line John
McGinn, guard, set the stage for
another score. On the next play a
pass from Verle Lilly white, quar
terback, to Morris, in the end zone
made the count 13-0. McCormack’s
placekick failed. The Bears tagged
their two points when they trap
ped quarterback Jim Peterson for
a touchback.
Cougars Claw vandals
Washington State’s Cougar clan
showed themselves to be a threat
this season by handing the Idaho
eleven a 42-6 blast. The contest
was tied up at 12 all till the start
of the fourth period when the
Cougars scored on a pass from
Jack Perrault, halfback, to Bill
Lippencott in the end zone. Later
Lazor went over for another
marker. Three intercepted passes
made the other 18 points. Stere
dent Eggers and Miyaki carried
the oval on these long jaunts of
43, 55, and 11 yards respectively.
Proving that the Portland
schools turn out top football ma
terial, the Oregon Staters battled
to a 14-14 decision wtih the war
riors from Camp Beale. Most of
the starting lineup are gridsters
from Roosevelt and Jefferson in
Portland. The army squad were
leading 14-0 till the last quarter
when the Orangemen played in
spirational ball and went over
twice to score. The try for the
extra jioint each time was com
pleted by Stan McGuire, substitute
end.
Reynolds Runs Far
Although outscoi’.ed by the
ITuskie squad the local aggrega
tion was not outplayed. Bobbie
Reynolds was the best back on the
field and ran 131 of the 259 made
by the Webfoots. He also passed
for 93 yards more to run and assist
for 224 yards. Tex's chargers also
made 14 first downs to the Welch
men’s 4. Interceptions cost the
Lemon and Green team a victory
and next week against the Van
dais they should have a big day.
In the final game of the open
ing day, the UCLA squad turned
back an inexperienced, but stub
born eleven 20-14. The sailors from
San Diego did not possess the
training that the Los Angeles
boys had.
I saw you running to work
alongside your bicycle this morn
ing.
Yes, I was late and didn’t have
time to get on.
