Aiken Ecstatic Over Vandel Victory
Webfoots Roll Up
41 Points on Idaho
l “Wonderful! Everyone played just wonderful! ’
These were the words of Head Coach Jim Aiken after his
“wonderful” Webfoots poured on a 27-point attack in the last
half of their football game with Idaho to crush the visiting Van
dals 41-0.
. The victory was the 13th straight Pacific Coast Conference
win and the 17th of the last 19 games played for the Ducks. Add
ed to that it was the largest margin of victory any Webfoot team
has ever ran up over an Idaho team with the previous high com
ing in 1932 when the Ducks trounced the Vandals 32-0.
Big Bob Sanders, Oregon’s rambling fullback, was the thorn
in the Vandals side as he paced the Webfoots the lopsided win by
personally racking' lip 122 yards
and scoring three of the Ducks’ six
touchdowns. George Bell, Bill Fell,
and Bud Boqua each scored one TD
while Chet “Cool Papa” Daniels
kicked five perfect strikes through
the uprights on six attempts.
VICTORY COSTLY
However the victory was a costly
one for the Ducks for they lost the
services of End Les Hagen who
broke his left leg just below the
knee late in the third quarter. Hag
en, who starred in last year's Cot
ton Bowl game, was one of Aiken’s
leading pass catchers as well as
being equally adapted to defensive
play.
Although the defeat was the
worst that the Vandals have suffer
ed from an Oregon eleven, Millard
“Dixie” Howell’s team was a con
stant scoring threat with John Bro
gan in the backfield. Brogan ran,
kicked and passed the Vandals to
12 first downs, only four less than
the Webfoots could tally. He carried
the ball 16 times for a net gain of
110 yards for a healthy 6.8 average,
second only to Oregon’s Sanders
with 8.7 yards per try.
VANDALS SHOW POWER
The Vandals opened their vaunt
ed running attack after the initial
kickoff by starting on their own 20
yard line and marched to Duck 24
before Aiken’s forward wall stif
fened and the Ducks took over on
dqwns. This was the only time dur
ing the afternoon that the visitors
got past the Oregon 30-yard stripe.
Oregon’s first score came just be
fore the end of the first quarter
when Ray Lung recovered Jim
Hammond’s fumble on the Idaho
four to set up the touchdown that
came two plays later with Bell
plunging over right guard.
SANDERS SIOKK*
The Ducks’ second tally came on
a sustained ground-aerial attack
which carried them from their won
three all the way to the Idaho goal
lnie. The score was set up by a
St elle-to-Darrel Robinson pass good
fov 25 yards to the Idaho 13. From
here Sanders raced around right
eud all the way into the end zone.
From here on the Ducks capital
ized on Idaho fumbles and pass in
terceptions to add 14 points in the
third quarter and 13 in the last
stanza to make the final count Ore
gon 41, Idaho 0.
LEWIS, STELLE STAR
Woodley Lewis and Earl Stelle
were the Lemon-and-Green’s pillars
* against Idaho’s aerial attack as
Lewis intercepted three for the
Ducks while Stelle came up with
two.
Oregon’s defensive play was
highlighted on the ground by ster
ling play from its three ace line
bankers, Swede Johnson, Dick Pat
rick. and Dick Daugherty.

NEW YORK, Sept. 26—(UP) —
The Boston Red Sox, roaring irre
sistibly from behind in one of the
greatest stretch stands of all time,
finally took over first place from
the New York Yankees today,
beating them, 7 to 6, before 66,156
frantic fans at Yankee Statidum.
They won the game in a fashion
that has been typical of their play
since mid-season, putting on a last
ditch four-run rally in the eighth
inning off Lefty Joe Page, who has
been heralded as one of baseball’s
great relief pitchers.
YANKS LEAD 6-3.
When they came to bat in that
climatic frame they trailed 6 to 3
and Page, with a nonchalant grin
that was perceptible in the grand
stand, was mowing the Red Sox
down. He had entered the game in
relief for Fred Sanford with two
out in the fifth and had breezed
through two innings.
Birdie Tebbets, tough old Red
Sox catcher who was playing in
World Series ball games 15 years
ago, wiped that smirk off Page’s
countenance with a sharp single to
left.
DOM SETS KEY BLOW
That was just a starter. Pinch
hitter Lou Stringer walked and up
strode Dominic Di Maggio, the
Little Professor and lead-off man
of Boston’s postwar murderer’s
row.
DiMaggio cracked a fast Page
pitch right at Phil Rizzuto, the
little Yankee shortstop. Rizzuto.
leaped high but he lacked the
stature to nail the ball cleanly and
could only knock it down. It went
for a single, scoring pinch-runner
Tom O’Brien and sending Stringer
to third.
RIZZUTO ALMOST THERE
In that blow by DiMaggio was
packed a ton of irony. For had
Little Phil been able to hold it—as
he almost did—he would have had
an almost certain triple play for
both runners were off at what
looked to be a certain hit. The way
they were charging, Rizzuto prob
ably could have made it unassisted
for the key play of the season. As
it was, that was just another hit.
So instead of three out with no
trouble, Page got into an even
deeper jam when second baseman
George Sternweiss fumbled John
ny Pesky’s grounder. Stringer
scored and Di Maggio went to sec
ond after which Ted Williams,
denied much chance to hit by be
ing walked twice previously,

Boston Comes From Behind to Win 7-6
Bowerman Sends Ducklings Through
Practices; Season to Begin October 8
By John Barton
Bill Bowerman's Oregon Duck
lings rolled into their second week
of practice yesterday on the upper
practice field and saw their chances
for top positions on the squad nar
rowed to three or four names for
each position.
Bowerman opened yesterday’s
session with several minutes of rug
ged calisthenties as he made it
plain to all frosh that he is bearing
down after last week's “breaking
in.”
SQUAD DIVIDED
Following warm-ups and exercis
es, the frosh players were divided
into backfield and line groups and
Coach Bowerman took his top
charges to one end of the field for
signal practice and lessons in fun
damentals of the Aiken system.
A passing scrimmage followed,
with “no tackling” the order of the
day. Filling the shoes of Jim Calder
wood, last season’s yearling quar
terback, has become a major task
for Bowerman. He had consistent
I r.- - -—
trouble yesterday in his baekfield
practice teaching- the new quarters
pivoting and handoffs under the
Oregon system of the "T” forma
tion.
QUARTERBACK TOSSUP
The quarterback is at present a
toss-up between three men. Norm
Fenton, Wayne Parsons and Harold
Dunham all saw equal action in yes
terday’s workout.
At the halfback positions, Don
Sloan, Bob Moorhead, Jack Cook,
McClure, Moek, Ron Lyman and
Phil Turner worked out at the up
per end of the field with Bowerman.
Trading off with fullback duties
in yesterday’s practice were Jess
Fogarty, Palmar Clemmens, Carl
Ervin and Williams.
ENDS SEE ACTION .
Seeing top action at the end posts
were Emery Barnes, Jack Parsons,
Jack Lust, Jake Williams and Fritz
Brewer.
In the middle of the prospective
Frosh line, Bill Mills, Rudolph and
Laird saw duty at the center slot.
Guards on top yesterday were John

slammed an infield single past first
baseman Tommy Henrich, loading
the bases.
HENRICH LOSES GAMBLE
Junior Stephens flied out to drive
in Di Maggio with the tying run.
Henrich, playing alertly, gambl
ed and lost on a ground ball by
Bobby Doerr. He fired it to the
plate, but not in time to catch
Pesky, who slid in with the winn
ing run. The Yankee's ranted at
length at Umpire Bill Grieve, but
he paid them no heed and that was
the ball game.
KINDER STOPS YANKS
Ellis Kinder, Boston’s 23-game
winning righthander, came on to
stop the Yankees, who had only
their spirit left in the semi-twi
light that enveloped the vast sta
dium.
It seemed that right fielder A1 ,.
Zarilla quenched even that when
Henrich, bidding to tie it up in the
ninth with a homer, smashed a
liner that Zarilla nailed just as it
would have soared into the seats.
It was Zarilla’s third robbery of
the day.
