Meet Ran Jtym&n Sweeps Ends and SU By Bill Gurney A young' man with a fine football future is Ron Lyman, big' varsity halfback. Ron cracked the starting lineup against St. Mary's and justi fied Coach Jim Aiken’s faith in him by ripping off many long gains. A big strong guy at 6 feet, 2 in ches, and 190 pounds, Ron is the traditional type of ballplayer who I tins with knees high and with driv ing determination. He is only a f-.opliomore and lias this to say of ins big jump from last year’s Frosh club to the Oregon varsity: “It’s more fun up here, competi tion is tougher and there’s a whole |ot more to learn.” Nevada Product Ron’s home is Carson City, Ne vada, where he was All-State selec tion in High school football and basketball. The fact that Aiken came to Eugene from the Univer sity of Nevada was a big factor in Pon's choice of the University of Oregon. The Alpha Tan Omega fra ternity is tiis home on the campus. Jte is a liberal arts major, and as yet nas no detinue tuture plans. " “I may be a bum,” he said with a grin. He shows no signs of laziness here at college. Besides football and classes, he has a part-time job in the Student Union. He pushes an electric sweeper around with great vigor. * The Stinker! “It’s not so bad,” said he, “I can always sneak away and hide when the janitor’s not looking.” Ron does like to take off and go fishing when he’s home. He goes after the whoppers in famous Lake Tahoe, and says he has hauled in several trout weighing over five pounds. In conclusion, here is Ron's com ment on the coming USC game: “If we have spirit like we had in the St. Mary’s, game, we’ve got a good chance to win. Some people don’t think so, but it really helps the ballclub as a whole when the student body is behind them all the way.” Order of '0' Order of the “O" will meet at n .on today at the Phi Camma Del ta house. President Don Peterson urges all members to attend.
