37 Ducks on Way To Stanford Game; McKay May Start Coach Jim Aiken and a 37-man traveling squad of Oregon football players left Eugene last night on the 8:48 Cascade, on their way to Pleasanton, California, and a game with the Stanford university Indians Saturday afternoon at Stanford stadium. The Ducks are scheduled to arrive in Pleasanton around noon today, in time for a pre-game loosening-up workout at the Old Hearst Ranch, their California headquarters. Aiken ordered a short, light workout without pads last Two Regulars, Eleven 'S' Vets In Red Backfield (Editor’s note,: Following' yester day’s summary of Marchle Schwartz’s front line prospects, the Emerald sports page gives its read ers a look at Stanford’s backfield.) Stanford has returning lettermen at every backfield position, includ ing two regulars from last year’s team. They did lost two top quarter hacks, the most vital position in a ■‘T” formation, plus their best run ner and line backer. The biggest single loss was at quarterback, where Ainslee Bell and A1 Morris were one and two last season. However, letterman Paul Campbell, who was one of the sparks against San Jose, looks as good as if not better than Bell. Campbell is a deadly passer, a fine field general, and can run with the ball if no receiver is open. He is speedy and plays a fine defensive game. Tom Shaw at Quarter Number one man behind Camp bell is a former all-city man from Portland, Tom Shaw, who led Grant high to the state title in 1946. Shaw was an outstanding star for the Indian Frosh a year ago, but needs more varsity experience. Who Marchie Schwrartz will start at left half is doubtful, but it will probably be either Andrews (184) or Turriziani (1781. The former is a scooter, adept at running the end and hauling in passes. Turriziani is not as fast as Andrews, but is a reliable halfback. Fast Backfield Also in the left half picture is Benson (162), another speed-demon and Durket (162), a punting spe cialist who can also run. Benson played primarily on defense against San Jose, and was outstanding. .Durket boots a long, high kick that gives the ends plenty of time to get dovvnfield.

Duck Traveling Squad The following players were nam ed to make the Stanford trip: Ends: Bob Anderson, Wayne Bartholemy, Dan Garza, Darrell] Robinson, Lou Robinson, Dick Wil- ! kins, and Win Wright: Tackles: Steve Dotur, Bob Roberts, Don Stanton, and Norm Yatchmenoff. Guards: John Arnold, Jim Ber wick, Ed Chrobot, Chet Daniels, Larry Hull, Ted M'eland, Sam Nevills, Bus Newcomer; Centers: Brad Ecklund, and Dave Gibson. Backs: Jim Aiken Jr., George Bell, Bud Boqua, Keith DeCourcey, Bob Easter, Tommy Hines, Ben Holcomb, DeWayne Johnson, Woodley Lewis, Ken Maine, John ny McKay, Bob Oas, Bob Sanders, Earl Stelle, Joe Tom, and Norm Van Brocklin. McKay to Start Before leaving for the Palo Alto trip, Aiken announced that Johnny McKay will start at left half against the Indians in place of Woodley Lewis, who was slightly injured in the Santa Barbara game. Although Lewis is in good shape now, he won’t be used until needed. Aiken's complete offensive start ing front line probably will include Dan Garza at left end, Steve Dotur at left tackle, Ted Meland at left 1 guard, Brad Ecklund at center, Ed Chrobot at right guard, Don Stan ton at right tackle, and Dick Wil kins at right end. Norm Van Brocklin will call of fensive plays from his quarterback post, George Bell is set to open at right half, and Bob Sanders will be at fullback. A football referee covers about three times as much ground as any player in a football game.

Chrobot’s speed and agility make him a valuable man on both offense and defense. Although in jured in a summer auto accident, Chrobot has been playing good foot ball to keep his starting right guard post for the Webfoots. The stocky veteran sticks at guard on the six-man line defense, but pulls out to back up the line when the Ducks switch to a 5-3-2-1 defensive pattern.
