Webfoots Favored Over Stagg’s Tigers By WALLY HUNTER ■, ? Assistant Sports Editor Football at its glittering best makes its 1946 3ebut on Hayward field at 2 p.m., when a band of razz’ ma’ dazz boys from the Col lege of Pacific battle it out with the odds-on favorite “dark horse” University of Oregon Webfoots. f Both Coach Alonzo Stagg of Pacific, and Coach Gerald Oliver, head man at Oregon, will field teams built for speed and designed primarily to head goalward. From the starting kick-off, the ex pected record breaking opening day crowd of approximately 14,000 spectators can expect to see football played the wide open hocus-pocus way. ; Stagg sends his lads forth to do battle with a full retinue of famed “flanker” plays. On the other hand the Webfoots will be able to start a fast, rugged backfield that compares with any quar tet on the Pacific slope. ^j| (Please turn to page 4) Hallock’s New 14-Piece Band'oniHand for Dance & St The first appearance of Ted Hallock’s new 14-piece orches tra will be tonight at the victory dance in McArthur court which will wind up “Kickoff Weekend.” Time for the dance is from 9 to 12 p.m., Tom Hazzard, yell king and chairman of the com mittee, announced. 1 Admission for the dance, the first of the school year, will be $1 Social Calendar Reduces Dances The year’s entire social calendar was released by the assembly com mittee yesterday.

You Can Canoe on the Millrace Some Day But Expense Makes it Unlikely in Our Time By GLORIA SMITH ‘‘As much as I would like to see the millrace in operation, there are no city funds at present to handle the expenditure necessary,” Deane Seeger, Eugene city manager, said Friday, during a discussion of the millrace development. According to Seeger, this lack of funds presents only one side of the problem concerned in reverting the race to its canoe-fete status of for mer years. i At present the race belongs to the Eugene Power company. If it remains in their possession it will, in all probability, remain in the same condtion it is in today, since the race is of no commercial value to the company, Seeger explained. With the construction of the high way 99 project, the refilling of the millrace may come into being, but such action could not be taken for at least a year and a half and prob ably longer. According to Seeger, the highway agreement between state, county, and city will not be completed for at least 30 days. If the city buys the race rights, which it will undoubt edly have to do if it intends to continue with the present highway construction plans, the cost would be $55,000 for the property as is. The Eugene Power company or iginally offered the property at $60,000 with the agreement that they repair the headgates. At that time plans were made to repair the race during August and Septem ber. They recently lowered the price after making the decision not to repair the property. Cost of Water "To repair and fill the millrace with water, would cost closer to $20,000 than $5,000,” Seeger said. “Before the city could spend mon ey repairing the race, it would be necessary to put the plan before the budget committee and then no ac tion could be taken until the city budget is made July 1, 1947,” he added. At present the city manager has no authority to spend money re pairing and refilling the race. Conduit This repairing would include con struction of a conduit beneath the newly proposed highway, conse {Please Turn to Page Eight) per couple.

Hazzard has pomised that light ing effects, which were not satis factory in last week’s dance, will be soft and low in response to student requests. This is the first victory dance of the 1946-47 football season. It i3 being sponsored by the rally squad, under the direction of Tom Hazzard. Since the regular rally squad had not been selected in time to plan this dance, a special committee made the arrangements.
