IM Aerials Continue
Despite Bad Weather
By Jim Mendenhall
Kappa Sigma, Delta Upsilon, Campbell Club, Chi Psi. Lamb
da Chi. Sigma Alpha Epsilon, and Sigma Chi scored victories in
.Wednesday's session of intramural football.
'i’he DU’s, Chi Psi, and Sigma Chi escaped the wrath of Jupe
Pluvius as their opponents failed to appear. The other winners,
However, picked themselves off the
.slippery turf on numerous occa
sions.
In spite of the presence of mois
ture in the air and on the ground,
T of the 10 touchdowns were scor
ed on passes.
Kappa Sigma encountered little
difficulty in downing a stubborn
.Hut undermanned Yeomen club,
25-0, in the most lopsided game of
t*te day.
Use Air Uanes
A pass from A1 Neish to Les Col
lier resulted in a gain of 40 yards
and 6 points for the Kappa Sigs in
■the first period. Neish again took
.to the air and threw to Bassett for
tlie conversion. Dick Couch placed
His team in the scoring column dur
ing the second quarter by blocking
a Yeomen punt and recovering it in
the end zone for a touchdown. The
.final two touchdowns came in the
*hst minutes of the contest, one
coming via another aerial from
Neish to Couch and the other scor
ed by Martel on an intercepted pass.
Sigma Alpha Epsilon wrested a
Hard fought victory from Theta Chi
il»y virtue of a second quarter pass
from Dennis Sullivan to Dick Al
gliire. Both teams threatened con
tinually throughout the game but
tile score remained 7-0.
llazzle Dazzle
A trick play paid off for Nestor
hall in its 7-0 win over Sigma Phi
Epsilon. After a scoreless first half,
Ken Edwards started off an involv
ed maneuver by passing to Bern
stein, who quickly lateraled to
Peterson. Peterson finally tossed to
Dale Jolly who crossed the goal.
Edwards chucked to Jim Jolly for
the conversion.
A score in every period resulted
in a 20-0 win for Lambda Chi over
Gamma hall. A 30 yard toss from
Jim Crakes to Jack Smith resulted
in the first quarter touchdown. In
the second stanza, Ron Hall broke
loose and sloshed his way 40 yards
to paydirt. Hall racked up another
tally in the third period by hook
ing a pass from Razika. Chuck
Schwan recovered the elusive pig
skin for a safety and the Lambda’s
final score.
Campbell Club rounded out the
list of victories by edging Stan Ray
hall, 7-0. A fourth down aerial from
Bob Sawyer to Jack Hutchins ac
counted for the score. Drugas scor
ed the conversion.
French Hall, McChesney, and the
Legal Eagles forfeited their con
tests.
The bathing gals of today doesn’t
look anything like she did 10 years
ago—but that much time would
tell on anyone.
Mooting the gang to discuss a quiz
—a date witli the campus queen—or
just killing time between classes—
the University of Miami Student
Club is one of the favorite places for
a rendezvous. At the Student Club,
as in university campus haunts
everywhere, a frosty bottle of
Coca-Cola is always on hand for the
pause that refreshes—Coke belongs.
Ask for it either tvay . .. both
trade-marks mean the same thing.

3 Games
At Euaene
By Phil Johnson
Coach Bill Bowerman’s Univer
sity of Oregon Frosh gridiron ma
chine will play three home games
during the 1950 season, according
to Athletic News Director Art
Litchman. The Ducklings will face
the Willamette Jayvees for their
opener here at Eugene on Saturday,
October 14.
Six days later, on Friday, Octob
er 20, the Frosh will travel to Cor
vallis for a traditional battle with
the Oregon State Rooks. This should
be one of the toughest encounters
of the season for Bowerman’s
Yearlings, since the Baby Beavers
are reportedly loaded with material.
No Woe for Moe
When Rook Coach Hal Moe cal
led his opening practice in Septem
ber, he was greeted by 114 poten
tial gridders, including 18 veterans
of the 1950 Shrine game in Port
land. Other Rook prospects include
Captain Bob Crume of the 1949
Aberdeen, Washington, squad; All
State Halfback Jack Peterson from
Billings, Montana; and Dave Per
rin, who won All-Cosmopolitan
honors in the .New York area.
Pups at Eugene
The Frosh battle the Washington
Pups here at Eugene on Saturday,
November 11. The Pups have al
ways furnished strong opposition
to Oregon, and this game should be
no exception. Coach Bowerman's
gridders will be hoping for revenge
for the one-sided 59-13 loss they
suffered at the hands of the Wash
ingtonians in 1949.
Oregon will close the season at
Eugene with a second game against
the OSC Rooks. Negotiations are
still being carried out for a possi
ble clash with Humboldt State Jun
ior College on Saturday, Novem
ber 4. If the game is played, it will
be held on Humboldt’s home
grounds in California.
Students Hear
Football Talks
By Fred Taylor
Two hundred and fifty Oregon
student football fans, men and co
eds alike, watched movies of the
Oregon-California game and heard
athletic department personnel dis
cuss games past and future Tues
day night.
The meeting was the second in a
weekly fall series. Every Tuesday
at 6:30 p.m., movies of the proceed
ing game will be shown in a pro
gram arranged by the athletic de
partment and sponsored by the
Student Union Board.
Hank Panion, student union
board chairman, introduced How
ard Lemons, athletic business man
ager, who discussed ticket 'prob
lems and financial arrangements of
the department.
More Tickets
Lemons reported negotiations
are underway with Oregon State
College for 1100 extra student foot
ball tickets for the Oregon-OSC
game in Portland November 25.
Lemons said that number had been
overlooked by Beaver ticket offi
cials in Multnomah Stadium in
their original plans, and he had
asked Oregon State to sell these
extra tickets to Oregon students.
The business manager said the
athletic department must earn
$240,000 a year in order to finance
its activities. Football is expected
to bring in $150,000, basketball
$35,000, student fees return $40,000
and $15,000 comes from the Pacific
Coast Conference.

Passing Attack Good
During Rainy Session
By Charles Peterson
Oregon’s passing attack showed signs of potency yesterday
afternoon as the Ducks ran through a long and rugged scrim
mage in preparation for this Saturday’s game against Montana
on the Hayward Field turf, first game on home soil since Ore
gon dropped a 20-10 verdict to Oregon State at the close of last
season.
Ouarterbacks Earl Stelle and Tim Calderwood handled the pas

PHILADELPHIA (A*)—Manager
Eddie Sawyer announced Tuesday
that Jim Konstanty, his great relief
pitcher, will start the opening game
of the world series for the Phila
delphia Phillies.
Sawyer’s announcement was a
real shocker. Konstanty did not
start one game during the 1950 sea
son, although he pitched in 74
games, a modern major league
record.

PHILADELPHIA <A>>—1The Phil

sing assignments yesterday, un tne
ground, the work of Bob Carey,
formerly used on defense, and
Chuck Missfeldt drew special praise
from Coach Jim Aiken. Missfeldt
had the best average among all
Webfoot ball carriers in last week’s
California game.
Pass Defense
On the defensive side, the Ducks
spent considerable time scrimmag
ing against Montana plays. Pass
defense was stressed in an effort to
put a halt to the overhead game
which has been the Grizzlies’ prin
ciple weapon in their two opening
season victories. Ron Lyman stood
out on defense yesterday along with
Monte Brethauer, who was named*
by Aiken as a definite starter
end Saturday.
If the rains of yesterday con
tinue, they will probably hamper
the offensive efforts of both elev
ens, Aiken said last night. Neither
the pocket-size Webfoot backs nor
the Montana passing attack will be
well suited to a muddy gridiron.
Yesterday’s work with the wet ball,
though, will stand the Ducks in
good stead if they don’t get any
breaks from the weatherman,
xop Shape
The squad is back in top shape
for Saturday’s clash, with only a
few minor bumps and bruises re
ceived at the hands of the Bears
yet to heal.
Yesterday’s session wound up
with a punting session in which
Calderwood displayed top form.

Gus Likes the WebfGots
By Bill Gurney
In any list of Big Men On The
Campus, you have to include Mr.
Gus Knickrehm—athlete, sports
man, and just plain good guy.
When you see a man like Gus in
a football suit, you wonder what
it’s like to talk to him. I did, any
way, so I went over to Mac Court
and found out.
The first thing I noticed was that
247 pounds includes an awful lot of
football player. You can see why
his teammates would nickname
him “Bear.” The boy is really rug
ged.
Now in the midst of his second
varsity season, Gus usually plays
either a defensive tackle or guard
post for Jim Aiken’s hustling ball
club. His play is marked hy a cool,
steady competence which should
prove a helpful influence on the
squad’s many inexperienced ath
letes. All in all, Gus is a sound man
to have around on a football team.
While opposing halfbacks may
shiver at the sight of him, off the
field Mr. Knickrehm is a perfect
gentleman. His big easy-going grin
tells you that here is a guy who
really enjoys life.
Like so many other Webfoots,
Gus is a native Californian, Long
Beach to be exact. He came to Ore
gon because, and we quote: “Ore
gon is the only real school on the
Pacific Coast.”
Gus is a junior this year with a
history major and a minor in phy
sical education. It may surprise
some of the more cynical readers
to learn that a football player has
to study just as hard for decent
grades as do the rest of us peas^j
ants. Gus has around a 2.4 averagM
and is justly proud of it.
Pro Football, Maybe
Come graduation time, Gus hopes
to teach history and coach football
in high school. Also, he said he’d
surely give pro football a whirl if
he were given the chance.
I found that Mr. Knickrehm has
been around quite a lot in the
course of his 25 years. The U .S.
Navy had him for 3 years and 11
months, 32 months of which were
spent in the South Pacific, and
were no doubt rather less enjoyable
than the Broadway musical of the
same name. For the last three sum
