Minturn, Phi Delts,
ATOs, Nestor Clash
bi Semi-Finals Today
By Jim Mendenhall
It’s Minturn against the Phi Delts and ATO against Nestor in
the intramural football semi-finals this afternoon. Those afore
mentioned teams proved their gridiron prowess I uesday after
noon as they continued their winning habits at the expense of
Beta Theta Pi, Pi Kappa Alpha, and Sigma Nu. Nestor drew a
bye during the quarter-finals.
Although all teams were pressed
to the utmost, Phi Delta Theta was
the only squad whose issue was
ever in doubt. The Phi Delts almost
lost their winning 7-6 margin in the
final period when the Betas racked
up a first down on the winners’ six
yard line. Four plays failed to reach
paydirt, however, and the Phi Delts
took over on downs.
Passes Pay
After a scoreless first quarter,
Bob Wilcox hauled down a 25-yard
aerial from rubber-armed Nick
Schmer for a Phi Deft touchdown.
Schmer then rifled another pass
to Jim Livesay for the all-import
ant conversion.
The Betas quickly retaliated
with a 30-yard scoring pass from
Allan Mann to Hal Webb. How
ever, the conversion attempt fail
ed.
Paced by Joe Tom, Minturn Hall
scored once in the first half and
twice in the second to eliminate Pi
Kappa Alpha from the champion
ship race by the score of 19-0. Only
once in the contest did the Pi Kaps
manifest any serious scoring threat,
.bate in the second period they took
over the pigskin cm the Minturn 11
yard stripe. A running play placed
the ball on the one as the half end
ed.
Tom Sparks
Tom was the sparkplug for the
victors as he scored the first touch
down and then pitched to Louis
Santos for the other two tallies. The
first six-pointer came in the first
quarter when Tom carried the ball
over from the two after four con
secutive first downs. The game
went scoreless thenceforth until
the final period when Santos latch
ed onto a pair of forwards from
Tom. Fuse scored the only conver
sion.
ATO Blasts Sigma Nu
ATO nosed out Minturn for high
point honors by capturing a 20-0
victory over the Sigma Nus.
Hobart Marvin proved his back
field versatility by passing for one
touchdown and scoring two others
on runs. The winners scored in the
first quarter on the day’s first play.
Marvin threw a pitch-out to Dan
Cudahy, who tossed back to Mar
vin in the end zone. McClure made
the extra point.
Marvin scored again in the third
period on a jaunt from the 20-yard
line. Cudahy hauled down a pass for
the conversion.
The final tally came in the fourth
quarter when Cudahy eluded a Sig
ma Nu defender and hooked Mar
vin’s pass for a touchdown.
Heinrich, McElhenny
Set Air, Ground Pace
LOS ANGELES Although only
six week of the 1950 season have
passed, the emphasis on passing
makes it highly probable that
both the pass completion and re
ceiving records for the Pacific
Coast Conference will be broken.
Jim Powers of USC set the com
pletion record last season with 87
connections in nine games. Don
Heinrich of Washington has 10
games in which to improve that
.mark, and has 37 completions in
three contests. At the end of three
games last year Powers had 27
completed passes. Heinrich needs
tout a fraction over seven comple
tions in each of his next seven
outings to better the record.
Mark In Danger
Heinrich also luis a good chance
to better the PCC marks for yards
passing and touchdown passes.
The current marks, also set by
.Powers, are 1,215 yards and 12
touchdowns. Heinrich has a three
game total of 574 and five.
The pass receivers also have ex
cellent opportunities to erase the
1.HX’ receiving record of 81 for a
season. Hay Bauer of Montana and
Harrell Itobinson of Oregon estab
lished the mark in 1949. In three
games Bill McC'oll, Stanford end,
has hauled in 14. John Thomas,
wingman. has 18 receptions in
two games. Hot on the trail are
Ibrtt/. Apklng and Joe t'loidt,
Washington ends, with 12 anti 11.
McElhenny la-ads

fullback, still leading the Confer
ence in rushing. Heinrich leads in
totul offense as well as passing.
Bob Moore, UCLA's number one
tailback, has the highest punting
average; and Byron Bailey of WSC
and Johnny Williams of USC are
running one-two in punt returns.
Bob Bryan, Stanford's halfback
and hurdler, continues to lead the
kickoff returners.
King Block of Idaho paces the
scoring parade with 30 points,
followed by Gary Kerkorian of
Stanford with 25.

Meet Chet 2> o-nieli.
His Toe Is Foe's Woe
By Bill Gurney
In this day of football specialists,
varsity Guard Chester Daniels
breaks all the rules. Last year he
not only scored the uprights for 46
points to lead the nation’s place
kickers, but also found time to play
317 minutes of high class football.
Chet is known to the paying cus
tomers as “Cool Papa” but when
asked how he got the name, he said
this:
“You’ll have to ask Dick Strite
about that. I just looked in the pa
pers one morning and there it was.
Just more copy, I guess.” Chet talks
with a nice, relaxed Southern drawl
that is full of quiet humor.
“Where did you learn to place
“Oh, I fooled around at it in high
kick like that?”
school and then when Van Brocklin
hurt his leg, I tried it here.”
His Trademark
When he kicks, Chet has the nov
el habit of reaching down and pluck
ing a blade of grass after his foot
meets the ball. He says this helps
him concentrate on his follow
through. It’s not a habit that be
trays nervousness in any form.
Chet was born and grew up in
Bellaire, Ohio, where he played four
years of high school football and
also was a basketball and track
athlete.
He broke into the Webfoot de
fensive lineup as a sophomore on
the Van Brocklin-sparked Cotton
Bowl club. At 5 feet, 9 inches, and
139 pounds, Chet is not what you
would call a large lineman. Still, if
first string All-Coast honors mean
anything, Chester can take care of
himself in fine style when the going
gets rough.
“Well, Cool Papa, in which game
did you feel the least cool ?” he was
asked.
“Yellin’ and Hollerin’ ”
“Oh, I guess it was that St.
Marys game in 1948. Things got
pretty rugged with everybody yel
lin’ and hollerin’, and I had td kick
a conversion right in the last min
ute of play.’’
In case you’re forgotten, Oregon
won that one, 14-13. Chet doesn’t
miss many extra points. Last year
his batting average was .912 and he
is currently working on a skein of
10 straight which was inaugurated
in the Washington tilt last year.
Chet is a Business Administra
tion major who hopes to own his
own business someday, or perhaps
enter public relations work.
In the past few summers, he has
done everything from mining coal
to working on a mill green chain.
Chet, in company with several
other people, has a very high re
spect for the football talents of
Montana’s Tom Kingsford:
“He’d be All-America material if
he went to a bigger school,” is his
opinion.
In regard to the Rose Bowl, Ches
ter had this to say:
“I think it's between Stanford
and Washington, but then you
never can tell about football.”
Quit Huskies
SPOKANE—Iff)— George Chal
ich and Dale Thomason, sophomore
reserves on the University of Wash
ington basketball team last season,
have decided not to return to Se
attle for school this year.
Chalich has enrolled at Gonzaga
and Thomason at Eastern Washing
ton College at Cheney. The two
were high-scoring stars at Central
Valley High School here in 1948.
Chalich was a unanimous All-State
choice.
Both saw little action with the
Huskies last year.
Chalich said the two had decided
to enroll at schools closer to home.
They live in the Spokane Valley.
Bowling Scores
High scores in bowling on the
Student Union alleys last week
were rolled by Vern Thompson,
Stan Ray Hall, with 219; and Betty
Towata, Susan Campbell Hall, with
172. Both of these bowlers are
awarded 10 free lines of bowling.
Each week the highest total scor
ed by a male and the highest total
scored by a female will be pub
lished in the Emerald and they will
receive 10 free lines of bowling.
Order of'O'
There will be an Order of the “O”
meeting at noon today at the Sigma
Nu house, according to President
Don Peterson. AH* members please
be there.
Players Shifted7
As Jim Aiken
Experiments
Coach Jim Aiken continued to
experiment with new backfield
combinations yesterday afternoon
as he ran the Ducks through a
sharp scrimmage in preparation
for Saturday’s game against the
Idaho Vandals’'at Moscow.
Carey Moved
Bob Carey, the surprising back
who was plucked last week from
the ranks of the unknowns and
ran wild against Montana, was
shifted from fullback to right half.
This move will pave the way for
the return of Bobo Moore to the
fullback slot. Moore was sidelined
during the Montana game with
an injured leg, but will be ready
for action again this week.
Ron Lyman, who performed well
in the Frosh-reserve scrimmage
Monday afternoon, was moved
over to left half behind Tommy
Edwards. Chuck Missfeldt continu
ed to roll up yardage in practice^,
and will undoubtedly see plent^jf
of action at fullback against the
Vandals.
Probable Backfield
It appears that the starting
backfield will probably consist of
Earl Stelle at quarter, Edwards
at left half, Moore at full, and
Carey at right half. Stelle was
very sharp with his passing dur
ing the workout, completing four
straight long pitches at one point
to ends Dick Daugherty and
Monte Brethauer.
Up on the forward wall, Don
McCauley turned in a good perfor
mance at guard in one of his first
starts with the defensive team.
Vandals Work
MOSCOW, Idaho—(.JP)—The Ida
ho Vandals, who scored 27 points in
one game, 33 in another and yet
lost them both, ran through a long
scrimmage session Tuesday with
the accent on defense.
Idaho plays the University of
Oregon here Saturday in its first
Coast Conference football game.
The Vandals lost a wild 43 to 33
decision to Texas Western last week
and Coach Dixie Howell set out to
day to mend the holes in the Idaho
defense. The defenders in the line
and the Vandal pass defense got the
most attention.
The Idaho offense appears to be
in good shape, scoring 86 points in
three games. The Vandals licked
Utah 26 to 19 in the opener but lost^
28 to 27 to Montana.
Saturday’s game will be the an
nual Idaho homecoming feature.
