their scrimmage with third stringers Thursday afternoon. Full
back O’Neill Sanders smashed off tackle and galloped 60 yards
for a touchdown on the second scrimmage play of the afternoon.
Defensive Fullback Gary Pick
ens added another six-pointer,
also by completing a long run.
Outstanding Lineman
Howard Allman, left guard
for the regulars, was one of the
outstanding linemen on the
field. Center Max Kendig and Right
Guard Terry Picknell also were de
fensive standouts for the regulars.
•Quarterback Barney Holland’s
choice of plays was effective and
contributed to the regulars’ ad
vance.
Valuable Gains
Varsity Fullback Howard Hos
tetler made several valuable gains,
and Quarterback John Davis of the
reserves turned in an outstanding
performance.

Today's Players
Lack Fitness
DETROIT (.Vi — University of
Michigan Athletic Director H. O.
(Fritz I Crisler believes today’s col
lege football players are not as well
conditioned ns those of a few years
ago.
The former Michigan head coach
.tired his views at a football writers
luncheon.
“Coaches today.” he said, “have
only about two hours for squad
I'. actice daily and in that time have
to work three of four defenses plus
various forms of the two platoon
system. That leaves very little time
to devote to conditioning work."
SwimmingMeet

Deadline for entries in the intra
school swimming meet is Nov. 3,
Rod Harman has announced.

Oregon State
Hosts Montana
In Corvallis
Two air-minded football teams,
each with an extra special reason
to win this weekend, will collide on
Bell field at 1:30 p.m. Saturday
when Oregon State plays host to
the University of Montana Grizz
lies.
After dropping their first- four
starts, Kip Taylor's Beavers will go
all out to record their initial vic
tory of the season at the expense
of the Grizzlies. Montana, with one
of its strongest teams in history,
will attempt to score its first win
over Oregon State. In 11 previous
meetings of the two schools OSC
won nine and two contests ended in
ties.
Aerial Circus
An aerial circus is in the offing
as both clubs possess outstanding
passers. For Montana it’s Quarter
back Tom Kingsford, who last week
ranked ninth in the nation with 41
completions in 76 throws for a bril
liant .539 percentage. Not far be
hind the Grizzly ace is OSC’s Gene
Morrow, also a quarterback. In two
and a half games Morrow has con
nected on 25 of 50 pitches for an
even .500 average.
Two standout receivers will be
the chief targets for these accurate
clnickers. They are Ray Bauer,
Montana end who snagged 18 aer
ials in the Grizzlies' first four
games; and John Thomas, ace Or
ange wingman, with 22 catches to
his credit in four starts.

Yard Gainers

ton’s two offensive guns, Quarter
back Don Heinrich and Fulback
Hugh McElhenny, are still the top
yard gainers in the Pacific Coast
Conference.
While conference headquarters
here were unable to get statistics
from the Washington-Ilinois game
last week, Heinrich still retained
his lead as the ace passer in the
loop; with 47 of 79 completions for
674 yards and two touchdowns, and
the total offense lead, with 673.
(He lost one yard trying to rush the
ball.)
McElhenny has gained 485 yards
rushing, with Johnny Olszewski of
California next with 433; and his
teammates, Jim Monachino and

yards.

Meet Also-Rans
Oregon's bounced-around football team boards a United Air
lines plane at 5 p.m. today as the \\ ebfoots head for Los Ange
les to meet another also-ran in the Pacific Coast Conference
race, Southern California.
The expected crowd for Saturday’s 2 p.m. tilt just about indi
cates the caliber of the two teams, judging from their recoids.

pected to file into Los Angeles’
spacious Coliseum which will

Irate Alumni
With irate alumni breathing
hot on his neck, Trojan Coach
Jeff Cravath will try to get his
team on the winning trail for
the first time this season. USC,
in pre-campaign predictions,
was a strong favorite to cop the
PCC bunting. But the only place
Jim Aiken
where Troy’s strength lias come
through is on paper.
USC dropped its opener to Iowa,
20-14, had to rally for three touch
downs in the final period to gain a
20-20 tie with a mediocre Washing
ton State eleven, lost a narrow 13-7
decision to California, and then was
bounced by a previously winless
Navy squad, 27-14.
Spotty Record
Oregon’s record, heading into
this contest, the 17th in the serjes
between the two teams, has also
been on the spotty side. The inex
perienced Ducks have dropped con
tests to UCLA 28-0, Idaho 14-0, Cal
ifornia 28-7, and St. Mary’s 18-13,
while collecting a 21-13 nod from j
Montana.
The Trojans, who have won 12
games, lost three with one ending
in a tie in the rivalry, have been
plagued by spotty quarterbacking
all season. Wilbur Robertson, Frank
Gifford, and the touted sophomore
Ed Demirjian have failed to deliver
in this key position of Troy’s T-for
