'We Found Ourselves'
By Bill Gurney
Dave Gibson, big Webfoot center,
believes Oregon will be a tough out
fit to beat after last Saturday’s
USC game.
“We found ourselves in that last
quarter,” said he. “I felt we were
finally playing the type of ball
we're capable of. Everybody pulled
together.”
A senior this year, Dave has al
ways been a fine team man and a
leader. The offensive center’s job
has been his since last season, when
he chalked up 287 minutes of varsi
ty action, and was considered one of
the better linemen in the confer
ence.
Dazzled at Dallas
As a sophomore alternate for
Brad Ecklund, Dave received his
biggest gridiron thrill when he
played several minutes in the Cot
ton Bowl.
Blocking is Dave’s forte, whether
it be for quick-opening ground
plays or “iron pocket" pass protec
tion.
Dave learned his football back in
Denver, where he was an All-City
center. Oregon was his choice be
cause of its highly rated School of
Architecture. He is a member of
Sigma Alpha Epsilon and the Or
der of the O, here at the home of
the Ducks. We asked him how a
man from the mountains liked our
occasional Eugene dew.
“We have more good all round
weather in Denver, but the coast is
swell, too,” was Dave’s diplomatic
comment.
Big Designs
He would like to remain on the
coast after graduation, eventually
becoming a building contractor,
sines he has concentrated on the
structural aspect of architecture.
Last summer he gained experience
with a contractor in Omaha, Ne
braska; a city which is now his
home.
You could say that Dave is an
athlete from the word “go", for he
thoroughly enjoys such active past
times as swimming, golf, and ten
nis.
He also says he likes to dance,
and he carries his lean 6-foot, 2
inch frame with an easy grace
which many football linemen do not
possess.
Speaking of football, a big share
of Oregon victory hopes for the fi
nal three games this season rest on
the shoulders of Dave Gibson. Dave
will surely do his part and do it
well.

NEW YORK—(AP)—Southern Methodist's unbeaten Mus

football teams today as Ohio State vaulted from sixth to fourth
and Miami, Princeton and Illinois squeezed into the top ten.

Light Workout
For Webfoots;
McCowan Back
Coach Jim Aiken sent a spirited
Webfoot football squad through
another light workout Tuesday in
preparation for the Homecoming
battle here this weekend against
Washington State.
Despite wet grounds and adverse
weaether conditions, the Ducks
worked pass plays against Cougar
defense formations with consider
able success. Quarterback Earl
Stelle, still recovering from a light
concussion received in the USC con
test, and Hal Dunham did most of
the throwing.
Countryman Continues
Halfback Jack Countryman, who
blossomed against the Trojans, cor -
tinued his fine defensive work as he
spoiled numerous aerials during the
afternoon.
End Emery Barnes, used most of
the season on defense, indicated pos
sible offensive ability by hauling in
several of Stelle's tosses.
End Supply Increased
Defensive power of the Ducks
has been boosted by the return to
action of End J. D. McCowan, who
has been sidelined since the first of
the season by a leg injury. Two
other squad members who have
been bothered by injuries alto took
part in the session. Center Dick
Patrick, another victim of concus
sion against USC, and Tackle Bob
Anderson, injured in the St. Mary’s
battle, worked enough to indicate
recovery is progressing.
It is doubtful, however, there will
be any action against the Cougars
for Anderson, who missed the Los
Angeles trip.
Frosh Eleven
Loses Spreen
Hopes of Oregon’s Ducklings to
upset the powerful Washington
Pups here Nov. 11 were greatly
jolted Tuesday when they lost their
number one quarterback. John
Spreen, 175-pound former field gen
eral at Albany, has withdrawn from
school and returned home.
Spreen was one of the very big
cogs in the Frosh machine this sea
son. He directed the triumph over
Willamette JVs and provided a lot
of trouble against the Oregon State
Rooks, although his T-formation
work was bothered by wet grounds
at Corvallis.
There are no indications he plans
to return to Oregon.
