Aiken Says
Manpower
Main Woe
Football coach Jim Aiken pointed
out insufficient material as one
reason for the under-par season
Oregon’s gi'id football movies in the
Student Union ballroom Tuesday
night.
“We have good boys,” said Aik
en, “bu t we need more.” Aiken men
tioned that while Oregon was hav
ing its good teams of 1947-8, it was
experiencing a comparatively poor
freshman team. “We are paying for
those teams now,” he said.
Glory Missed
The movies, of Oregon’s 21-13
loss to Washington State College,
were accompanied by Aiken’s run
ning comment. For the second week
in a row Oregon’s last second mo
ments of glory were missed by the
cameraman. This time the lost hap
penings were the pre-halftime
touchdown passes by Hal Dunham.
Last week it was the after-the-gun
score by end Monte Brethauer
against USC.
Assistant Coach Johnny McKay,
who scouted California’s 14-7 win
over the University of Washington
last Saturday, reported on what
Oregon can expect against the
Huskies in Seattle next weekend.
McKay said that Washington has a
terrifically fast team, even though
he felt that California has a better
team, now that “Waldorf knows the
first name of all his players.”
Fortunes Should Rise
Aiken said that next year’s foot
ball fortunes should rise, especially
since last year’s and this year’s
freshman squads have been excep
tionally good. With boys like Jack
Morris and Ted Anderson on this
year’s frosh squad, he said, he is
thinking about mixing a single
wing attack with the T-formation
next year.

Cadets Cop
Small Lead
In AP Poll
NEW YORK—(JP)— The ques
tion of who has the best college
football team in the country prob
ably never has been more widely
debated than right now.
Twelve teams received first
place votes in the latest Associat
ed Press poll, which saw Army re
capture the top position from
Southern Methodist.
No Sweep
But the Cadets, who led the
rankings until replaced by the
Southwesterners two weeks ago,
didn’t go to the top on a wave of
overwhelming national acclaim.
They received only 88 of the 314
first place votes cast by sports
writers and broadcasters. That was
six fewer than lavished on once
beaten Ohio State, which moved
up from fourth to second.
Huskies 17th
The University of Washington,
whose only two defeats this year
were at the hands of Illinois and
California—teams now resting in
the top 10—was ranked 17th na
tionally, two slots above UCLA.
Undefeated Wyoming was 14th,
Loyola of Los Angeles 21st; Idaho,
four-way tie for 37th, and Stan
ford, tied for 41st.
The voting, with first place votes
in parentheses (points on 10-9-8-7

Bosox's Dropo
Top AL Rookie
NEW YORK—(JP)—Big Walt
Dropo, Boston Red Sox first base
man, has been voted Rookie of the
Year for 1950 in the American
League.
Dropo outdistanced the opposi
tion with 15 votes from the 24-man
committee of the Baseball Writers
Association. Ed (Whitey) Ford,
New York Yankee southpaw pitch
er, was second with six. Chico
Carrasquel, the Chicago Whtie Sox
shortstop sensation, was third with
two votes. One writer failed to
vote.
Hoopsters' Ankles
Healing Rapidly
Oregon’s basketball hopes for
the coming season took an upward
turn again with the report that
Bob Peterson and Art Shepherd
should be working out within a
week or two.
The sprained ankles received by
Peterson and Shepherd proved to
be not as serious as originally fear
ed. Coach John Warren expects
the pair to be practicing next
week.
Forward Will Urban, mainstay
of last year’s team, is continuing
to get his injured foot in shape.
He refereed part of Tuesday’s var
sity-freshman scrimmage.

Thrillers, Forfeits
Mark IM3Action
By Jim Mendenhall
Two forfeits marred an other
wise exciting volleyball “B” sche
dule Tuesday as Sigma hall for
feited to ATO and Cherney hall
failed to appear for its contest with
Chi Psi. Four teams were forced
to win the hard way. Lambda
Chi, Delta Tau Delta, Sherry Ross,
and Sigma Nu were the unlucky
sextets forced to battle for a vic
tory.
Sherry Ross received a scare in
its encounter with Pi Kappa Al
pha. The men from Straub hall
dropped their first set to the Pi
Kaps by a lopsided 15-3 margin.
The worm turned in the last two
outings, however, as Sherry Ross
came home with 15-7 and 15-13
triumphs.
No Picnic
Tuesday’s action was also far
from a picnic for Lambda Chi,
who chalked up two hard-earned
victories over the Phi Delts. Aft
er battering their way to a 15-9
win in the first set the Lambdas
were pressed to the limit in the
second, barely scraping by, 16-14.
Sigma Nu encountered a scrap
py foe in McChesney hall but
wrapped up a win by capturing
two straight, 15-13 in a close one
and 15-7 in the finale.
Delts Win
Delta Tau Delta, playing at the
same time as Sigma Nu, also won
by the same scores, downing Phi
Gamma Delta 15-13 and 15-7. The
Fijis offered trouble in the first
set but melted under the Delt vol
leys in the final encounter.
The final games on the schedule
evidently were a little too late for
either Cherney or Sigma hall. Both
teams were generous, however,
and handed out free wins to Chi
Psi and Alpha Tau Omega respec
tively.
Dunham Liked
By Aiken;
Holeman Rests
Hal Dunham, sophomore quarter
back who electrified Saturday’s
Homecoming crowd with two long
touchdown passes, will draw the
starting assignment against Wash
ington this weekend, Coach Jim
Aiken said last night.
Dunham had another good day
yesterday as the Ducks ran through
their second hard scrimmage in two
days. He seemed surer of himself
than at any time during the sea
son. He was hitting Ends Jake Wil3f
liams and Monte Brethauer with
long tosses which gave a hint of
the type of offense which will be
used against the Huskies.
Aiken said the team’s spirit re
mains high despite its lack of suc
cess in winning only one of seven
games. Aside from the usual
bruises, the squad is physically set
for the coast’s second ranking team
with the exception of halfback
Emile Holeman.
Holeman will undergo surgery
this morning to correct the knee
dislocation and fractured tibia
which he suffered on the second
half kickoff Saturday. He was re
ported resting well in Sacred Heart
Hospital Tuesday night.
t&OK a 4&cuIqua ...
What we can do for them is far
less than a shadow of what they
already are doing for us.
The least we can do is give them
someplace decent to spend their
precious leisure hours . . a chance
to keep in touch with what they
are fighting to preserve.
