Intramural Squads Advance
To Final Stages of'47 Play
By BOB REINHART
The 1947 Intramural football
season advanced to its final stages
yesterday afternoon, as four high
powered grid machines slushed to
victory over their opponents on
the “quagmire flats’’ of lower
Howe field.
Phi Delt 1, Delts 0
Battling their way to a 5 to 0
advantage in the first down de
partment, the Phi Delts gained a
1-0 victory over the Delts and
stretched their unbeaten string to
five straight. Their win gives the
Phi Delts a berth in championship
rounds.
The Phi Delts had several op
portunities to score, but fumbled
away their chances on the muddy
turf. They drove to the Delt 10
yard line three times, but were
unable to push it over. Walt Kirsch
halted the only Delt scoring threat
of the afternoon, when he stopped
Jim Curtis from behind just short
of the goal, after Curtis had in
tercepted a pass and raced 65
yards.
TKE 13, Phi KapO
Taking advantage of two costly
fumbles, TKE dumped the Phi
Kaps 13-0 to gain their second
win of the year.
The initial tally came when the
Phi Kaps lost possession of the
ball deep in Their own territory,
and in the nexst series of plays TKE
ran it across for the score. The fin
al score of the game came in the
last moments of the fourth quar
ter when an aerial found its mark
in the end zone.
Sherry Ross 7, Phi Sigs 6
By the margin of one slim point,
Sherry Ross gained a hard fought
victory over a fighting team of
Phi Sigs, as they eked out a 7 to 6
win to end their season.
Sherry Ross scored in the open
ing phases of the second period
when pint-sized Bud Kincaid
streaked 15 yards down the side
lines for the six points.
Kincaid countered the extra point
as he skidded over right tackle
with only four minutes left in the
game. Suddenly the Phi Sigs found
themselves as Jim Wolhers skirt
WILLAMETTE PARK;
presents
ted the left forward wall and
romped 85 yards to paydirt. How
ever Wolhers pass into the end zone
fell incomplete and that was the
ball game.
Merrick 7, Villard 0
In their final appearance of the
season, Merrick hall beat a highly
touted Villard hall squad 7 to 0.
With both teams primed for the
tilt, the score came midway
through the third period. Bill Wen
wright went 65 yards around his
right end for the games only score.
Sherry Ross 7, Phi Sigs 6.
PCC Football
Bears Scrimmage
Berkeley, Cal., Oct. 15 (UP) —
Coach Lynn Waldorf ran his un
beaten University of California
football team through its third suc
cessive contact scrimmage today,
claiming the high-riding Bears
were “below par” physically.
No players were on the injury list
and Waldorf planned to keep his
first two teams intact for the
Washington State game at Ber
keley Saturday.
Sfiner Makes Charges
Corvallis, Ore., Oct. 15 (UP)_
The Oregon State Beavers today
had a new power backfield to
throw at the University of Southern
California next Saturday.
Observers noted that head coach
Lon Stiner had shifted hard-hitting
Dick Twenge from fullback to left
half, and was using Duane Moore,
another power runner, in the full
back slot. The move was calcula
ted to give the Beavers’ running
attack greater strength.
Cougars Inside
Pullman, Wash., Oct. 15 (UP)—
Rain drove the Washington State
Cougars into their field house to
day where they took on toughen
ing up exercises in blocking and
tackling.
Coach Phil Sorboe reported one
of his top halfbacks, Hal Akins,
had been taken off the long Cougar
injury list and would see action
Saturday against California.
Yearlings Slop
Through Wet
Contact Drill
By ELYVIN FAXON
Carl Heldt’s frosh gridders slith
ered through a muddy scrimage
session yesterday afternoon, sharp
ening their offensive maneuvers in
preparation for their game against
the Washington freshmen Satur
day in Seattle. It will be the final
road trip for the Frosh this year.
Meanwhile, the Husky Babes are
also polishing their T-formation
attack, which proved so effective
against the Idaho yearlings last
week. While the Oregon Frosh
were squeezing past EOCE, 6 toO,
the Washington squad trampled
Idaho 27 to 7 on the baby Vandal’s
home turf.
The Husky pups looked impress
ive in chalking up their inaugural
victory of the season, displaying a
well balanced ground and aerial
offense. They passed for one score,
hit pay dirt twice on power drives,
and registered a fourth marker on
scat back Roland Kirby’s 50-yard
sprint.
Looming as the major problem
for Heldt and his charges Sat
urday will be the Washington pass
ing attack, with quarterback
Howie Bellows doing the flinging.
In both previous Frosh encount
ers, pass defense was the weakest
spot in the Duckling formations.
It resulted in a close loss to the
OSC Rooks two weeks ago, and
showed little improvement last
Saturday at Pendleton. While the
forward wall has out-charged both
opponents, passes have scored, or
set up, touchdowns against the
Frosh after thrusts at the line had
been thwarted.
Trojans Puzzled
Los Angeles, Oct. 15 (UP)—For
the second straight day the Univer
sity of Southern California junior
varsity was able to make long gains
through the first team using Ore
gon State’s optional pass or run
plays.
Coach Jeff Cravath emphasized
defense in the heavy workout and
stressed pass coverage. The line
was plagued with numferous in
juries, but the cripples are all ex
pected to be ready for Saturday’s
game here.
Injuries Hit UCLA
Los Angeles, Oct. 15. (UP)—Left
end Billy Hoyt and fullback Jerry
Shipkey today were named Bruin
co-captains for Saturday’s Stan
ford game, as the 42 man UCLA
squad prepared to leave tomorrow
night for Palo Alto.
Second string cener Leon Mc
Laughlin, with a cast on his left
hand finally removed, will be in
top shape for the game, but right
guard Les Steiner and right half
Chuck Page will be doubtful start
ers because of injuries.

SPORTS: At California Coach
Lynn Waldorf is the man of the
hour. He has taken a poor Cal team
that won two games in coast con
ference competition last year, to
a team that is unbeaten in 1947.
Maybe the Bears will keep up
their terrific scoring pace, but even
if they don’t, Waldorf will un
doubtedly be considered for “Coach
of the year.”
FASHIONS: Don’t fall over
when you read this, the cost of
men’s clothing is up 63 percent
over 1939! Now, we know where
the money has gone. Sorry, but
don’t expect a sudden drop either,
for their is a demand for men's
apparel and it will continue at
a high rate for several years.
WOMEN: It looks as if the gals
on the quad are trying to keep up
with the men in novel rain hats.
The fellows have some weird cre
ations and the gals are blossoming
out with eye-attracters. Betsy
Youmans had the rain beat with
her olive drab workingman’s hat
yesterday; other gals sported ski
hats to green beanies.
SPORTS: Usually the athletic
field is locked up tighter than a
drum at night, but the other even
ing the big gates to Howe field
were wide open and not a soul

around—except for those lost from
the graveyard.
Ed Cheney is again sponsoring a
rally dance Saturday night at his
PAUSE IlOYALE in Portland for
Ducks planning on dancing.
FASHIONS: Shoe prices have
recently advanced one to two
Iollars, but don’t expect the up
swing to stop there. Manufacturers
report smaller leather output,
ligher labor costs and increased
ligh price will cause further price
■ises.
Friday night rally in Portland!
