Orange Standout at Tackle a BMt iiit UuiiWAttk at rlg-ht lackte, ruggeu «ji.i Austin is slated for heavy offensive and defensive action today, when Oregon and OSC meet in the 52nd “civil war.” DUCK TRACKS *By GLENN GILLESPIE - Emerald Sports Editor This is all for the Duck Tracks weekly football forecasts, sc we’ll go through this week’s picks and start packing up for Ag gieville. With any luck at all, the accuracy percentage conic 'finish over .800, since we’re doing our best to pick the easj * ones . . . ‘ OREGON vs. OREGON STATE—This is it here in the - Northwest, and the fur ’n feathers should really fly over on Bel -field this afternoon. The mighty Webfoots must win to re - tain their Rose Bowl chances, and the Aggies will be out there -after an upset. ^ • Everything, especially the blue sky yesterday afternoon, - points to a thrilling and top-flight football battle. For the 52nd time, the Ducks are ready to meet the Beaver Orange, , and they are favored to win. The Staters are expected to play their best game, but even the best won’t be good enough. We’re not quite 20-points confident, but a 13-point Oregon ~ victory is good enough for anybody. STANFORD vs. CALIFORNIA—The other “key” game ir the Pacific Coast Conference, and another big traditional bat tle, this time for the legendary Stanford axe. The big Bear alsc must win over Stanford, and.for the same reasons. -Little Chance for an Indian Win With the Bowl bid at stake. Cal won’t be stopped. Not thal • ."Stanford could do it anyway, especially after the terrible beat ing they took from a rough bunch of Army Cadets. An Indian upset would be great for Oregon, but there’s not much chance California by three or more touchdowns. SOUTHERN CAL vs. UCLA — Two big Los Angeles schools fight it out in this one, with nothing in the fire except ~ the mythical LA city championship. Neither team figures in ' the PCC title race, but the Bruins can salvage what’s left of a ' ■poor season by whipping' the Troian. Jeff Cravath’s men won’t go along with that reasoning, and should grind out a convincing victory. How about two or three touchdowns? WASHINGTON vs. IDAHO—This one should produce a lot of thrills, but both teams have nothing to gain. Seattle fans 'will be pleased by a Husky win, by two or three touchdowns. NORTHWESTERN vs. ILLINOIS — One of several good games in the Big Nine, this means a lot to the North western Wildcats. If they win, off they go to Pasadena New Year’s day. Should the Illini come through, Minnesota would get the Bowl nod. The Cats almost showed Notre Dame how . to play ball last week, and they’re good by at least two touch downs today. MICHIGAN vs. OHIO STATE—Those mighty Wolver ■ ines from Ann Arbor will cool the Buckeyes, but it won’t be an *easv game. It’s at Columbus, and the Staters will be out to please the home crowd. Could be, but Michigan by another two or three touchdowns. Bowl Odds Stacked Aqainst Mr. Bierman MINNESOTA vs. WISCONSIN—Bernie Bierman dispat ched scouts to the Coast, banking on the inside that Northwest ern will take a dive. The Golden Gophers must get by Harry’s ' Badgers first, and they shouldn’t liave too much trouble. Min nesota by one or two TD’s. And to wind things up . . . _ WSC vs MICHIGAN STATE—Those Cougars pick on tough opposition, and the Fighting Spartans from East Lansing can play some real offensive football. Washington State will drop another one, by two or .three touchdowns. Samuel to Captain Stiner's Beavers In All-Important "Rose Key' Battle uregon State will field a strong and veteran team this afternoon in Cor vallis, headed by Captain Don Samuel, for two years a regular at right halfback. A rundown bn the Beaver lineup, including those most likely to see action, follows. Left end: Regular at this spot is Dick Lorenz (207), a rugged block er and a good pass receiver. He us es his hands well on defense. Bob Grove (188), another rugged wing man, replaces Lorenz quite a bit on defense, and like Lorenz, is a good receiver. Left Tackle: Jay Simon (204), Marin J. C. transfer, has beaten Ar vid Niemi (223) to the first string job but both are good tackles and are slated for lots of action. Simon is the top man on offense, and Niemi relieves him quite a bit on defense. Carmichael Sturdy Left Guard: A converted tackle, big Ed Carmichael (222), is prob ably the sturdiest lineman in the sturdy Orange wall. He’s a good blocker but he really shines in stop ping plays through the middle. His relief is Jim Hanker (215), another rugged boy who has played good ball when in the game. Center: Bob Krell (195) is the regular in both offense and defense, but. injuries have hampered the three-year letterman and he has seen no more than limited action in any game. Jim Swarbrick (194), a good blocker, has played offensively most of the time with Sophomore A1 Gray (183) doing most of the work on defense. Gray, brother of All-American Bill Gray, is a fine linebacker. Rugged Guards Right Guard: Tom DeSylvia (211) teams with Carmichael to give the Beavers a very good pair of guards. DeSylvia is steady and hard to move. He is helped out by Ron Mc Reary (190), an agile and hard charging scrapper. Right Tackle: A regular ever since he came to Corvalis in 1945, Bill Austin (212) is one of the best in the OSC line. Big and fast, he can raise trouble with any line on the Coast. Hal Hermanson (241), the biggest man on the squad, Ralph Davis (194), a converted end, and Jim Inglesby (205) all back Austin up. Right End: Stan McGuire (186), tered in 1945 stole the job away j from Craig McMiken (182) and Bud I a rugged and scrappy end who let Don the Knitter OSC CAPTAIN Gibbs (199). He is tough on de fense, a good pass receiver and a fine blocker. He is also the PAT expert on the team. McMiclcen is McGuire’s number one replace ment, mainly because Gibbs has been troubled with injuries all sea son. Ruppe Ready Quarterback: One of the best backs on the Coast, Rudy Ruppe (188) will be one of the inspiration al leaders this afternoon. He is a fine blocker, a good pass receiver and a good runner when he gets the ball. Don Mast (172) replaces Ruppe on both offense and defense and is also a .slashing, fighting ball play er. Garth Rouse (183) sees action in backing up the line on defense. Left Half: Steady Ken Carpen ter (184), the best passer in the Orange camp and one of the best on pass defense, will probably start here over Dick Gray (172), who starred in the “Civil War” clash last season. Carpenter is a hard runner and an accurate passer. Gray is a fine back, but not quite as good as Carpenter. Soph Walt Kelly (187) might also see action, being a good passer and a fair run ner. Samuel Captain Right Half: All-Service Don Samuel (190), the southpaw ace of Lon Stiner's single wing, is ready to turn in one of his top days. A A TO, Sigma Chi, Delts, Phi Delt, Betas Annex l-M V-Ball Games MONDAY’S SCHEDULE 3:50 Yeomen vs. Sig Eps Sherry Ross vs. Pi Kappa Al pha 4:35 Hunter vs. Delta Tau Delta Cherney vs. Tekes 5:15 A TO vs. Merrick Wesley vs. Fizzeds A complete shutout by the ATO “B” squad over the Phi Kappa Sig ma second team was the surprise headliner of yesterday’s court ac tion, as IM volleyball rounded out its last full week of league play. Results of the other games: Sig ma Chi drubbed Campbell club in the only “A” tilt, the Delts rolled over Kappa Sigma, the Phi Delts knocked off Delta Upsilon, Beta Theta Pi edged out the Fijis, and the Sigma Chi junior edition fol lowed its older brothers by trounc ing the Campbell “B” unit. Top performance of the after noon was the whitewashing of Phi Kappa Sigma by the ATO lads, as they racked up two perfect 15-0 scores and turned in the first com plete shutout of the current vol leyball season. In the opener, after the Phi Kaps (Please turn to page eight) good passer and a hard runner, he will probably see only offensive ac tion and rest on defense. His top replacement is scooter Bob Laidlaw, (160), who tallied the only OSC touchdown a year back. Very fast, he will see action when either team has the ball. Fullback: Dick Twenge (187), in the best condition of his collegiate career, is set to try and tear holes in the middle of the Duck line, rite runs, passes and plays defense, and is very effective through the mid dle. Andy Knudsen (184), though hampered with injuries most of the year, is ready to go and is a very capable replacement for Twenge. Duane Moore (183) will probably see some defensive action.
