Lewis Powers Duck Attack
Against Huskies Saturday
By Sam Fidrnan
With two of the strangest Saturday’s behind them that any
football team has ever experienced, Oregon's unexplainable
Webfoots Monday turned grimly to the task of preparing for the
t'diversity of Washington game.
'1'he I luskies, once regarded as light touches, are now boomed
a- definite possibilities to unseat the Duck express next Satur
day at Portland. The Seattle club showed its ability to bounce
back in its thrilling game with USC.
No Prestige Deflation
The Huskies, trailing 20-0, fought to a 28-27 lead before su
perior 'Trojan manpower began to tell the tale.
In Oregon’s case, possibly a lot might be said, but little that
could make any difference now. 'The Mallards definitely put on
an exhibition of football that left Midwesteners with at least as
lV:gh regard for them as after the prestige-inflating loss to last
year's invinicble Michigan Wolverines.
One point might be brought out—-. I he Ducks couldn t pay
( Pi when the pressure was on. Iowa, on the otherhand, regard
less of breaks, and they didn't have many, deserves all the credit
jii the world for the spunk and fire they displayed in fighting
1- ck from what looked like a hopeless deficit.
Blind Spots, Tenaciousness
|)uek line plav was sound; Duck offensive plays clicked like
dock work. Attribute the loss then to several "blind spots," a
c uT.nl fourth cpiarter let-down, and llawkeye tenaciousness.
Woodlev, Los Angeles’ gift to the Webfoot cause, has now
scored four touchdowns for Oregon during his carrer as a Duck.
The scoring runs were for 102 yards, 95 yards, 75 yards, and 55
y Ms.
'There is a fair possibility that it may be difficult to keep track
of dl Lewis TDs in the remaining part of the season.
In the light of the performances that Lewis has turend this
si nson, both on otlense and defense, he will have plenty of
t, lUble avoiding the honor of being the best all round player on
the Oregon varsity.
College Elevens Remain Clean
NEW YORK (UP)- The slow
lv dwindling list of unbeaten and
\ tied college football teams found
8!t still answering the weekly per
fect record honor roll today.
That is an unusually high total
fee this late in the season, particu
^ ] i ty at a time when upsets have
b. -offio more and more frequent.
Of this number there were 10
so-railed major teams. Notre
f lame’s all-conquering Irish lead
ing the contingent from the Mid
vest. The otheres were Army,
fordhum, Cornell and Boston
I Diversity In the Hast, Oklaho
ma and Balor In the Southwest,
\ irginia from the South, Catifor
ilia from Ihe Pacific Coast and
Wyoming from tiic KocUy Moun
tains.
But right with this elite group
with statistics at least to make
them just as chesty were such
teams as the Wayne, Neb., Teach
! ers. Little Gannon of Erie, Pa., St.
Vincent of Latrobe, Pn., College of
Pacific from Stockton, Ca., and the
Trinity Hilltoppers from Hartford,
Conn.
Wayne had the “winningest" rec
! ord for this season with eight
straight victories since it began its
campaign early in September. That
is one more victory than any other

Head Coach Howard Odell
will be preparing his Huskie
charges to get them ready with
their tilt with the University of
Oregon Ducks at Portland, Sat
urday November 5 in Multno
mah Stadium.
The Huskies have fallen be
fore the Ducks in the two pro
ceeding years, and they hope to
gain revenge this year. The
Huskies will have 16 returning
lettermen and four regulars to
build their team around, and
even though the Huskies have
yet to win a conference game,
they will be out for an upset
against the Ducks.
The Huskies sport two
flashy quarterbacks both hold
ing high averages for the sea
son in completion and yards
gained. The air attack will be
one of the chief worries of the
Ducks.
A transfer from Compton Jun
ior College is the starting full
back, and he is a great open
field runner.
