If you’ve checked this Saturday’s grid schedule, you’ll soon side in, read on. Oregon vs. Washington. Last Tuesday, I made the statement, I had a sure thing on this game. Superstition or not, here it is. X friendly fellow by the name of Jack Chade, a student of the Uni versity, also a rabid football en thusiast, said, “Every game I’ve attended, Oregon won.” He assured me he would attend the game this week at Portland. Oregon being a 3-1 underdog against the Huskies, I bank my claim on his belief and the fact that Oregon has a little debt to repay from their first ( game of the season. Oregon by 6. ST. MARY’S VS.

I will go by their ability to score, and commit myself in saying, St. Mary’s to win by 7. CALIF. VS. WASH. STATE This in my opinion, is the most equal of any two teams that ex change talents on the turf. Cali fornia has been underrated the Weatherman Sez Grab your coat and get your hat, leave the studies at the University, that is if you intend to see the game today at Port land’. The weatherman says, partly cloudy today with light showers for the Portland district on this momentous day. You will have rain protection from the sheltered bleachers at Multnomah stadium, but unless you ifttend to sleep there its apparent the weather togs will be very useful. The foregoing article is another sports service. Meetings Planned For Newman Club The Newman club meeting, which includes all Catholic stu dents at the University of Oregon, was held at a Wednesday noon luncheon in the upper room of the College Side inn. The executive committee plan future meetings during a luncheon at noon every Wednesday at the College Side inn. The success of the meeting was d'ue in great part to the hard work and arrangments made for the new meeting place made by the social chairman who is Mary Margaret Dundore. Thirty-eight members were present to hear the lecture given by Rjev. Anthony Peterman S. J. from Chicago, Illinois. Father Peterman has started a series of lectures on apologetics, which will be con tinued throughout the future meetings by other Jesuits who will be obtained by the Newman club to continue the series. Plans have been made to have a social once a month and a com munion breakfast on the second Sunday of each month following the 9:15 mass. way it looks from this box. Now is their chance—California by 7. NOTRE DAME VS. NAVY This is not only a football game, but a classic, the Irish against the Midshipman. Frankly speaking, it scares me! Navy by 6. OREGON STATE VS. IDAHO This game could easily be called, “the forgotten game of the week,” let it go at that, Oregon State by 19. PURDUE VS. PITTSBURGH Purdue, the trouble-m a k e r, could gain more publicity by losing this one, than winning. Purdue by 5 touchdowns. The number one, fourth and sixth teams of the nation: Army, Alabama, and Ohio State should have little trouble in clinging to their honored spots, when they down Villanova, Kentucky, and Northwestern, to end this week’s predictions.

It seems every one who taps a typewriter for the sports section of a paper has tried his mental imagination in a clever usage of the name. One of the first to circulate was, “Leicht brightens the gloom at Oregon.” From there, Oregon played their first game with Idaho. Leicht again was the victim of numerous puns. This time, the name was used in this manner, “Everything is Jake at Oregon, now that Idaho has seen the Leicht.” The possibilities in this name are numerous and the now fitting theme is, “Washington has Leicht worry in game with Oregon.” With three games left on the Oregon football schedule there is no doubt this famous name will make its way to the headlines till the football season is officially over. Tex Oliver would no doubt like to see a few more players with catchy names like these enroll at Oregon. In case anyone hears of “Bill' Terrific” or “A1 Round,” even “Will Star,” they might do well by letting Tex know.
