"bring in so"'<‘ new adding machines!” was the battle cry at
( Uigon s spring training exhibition football panics, lloth teams
ran wild and scored almost at will.
In the first pigskin track meet, the Whites and (Ireens passed
and tan each other dizzy, finishing in a somewhat high-scoring
42 12 deadlock.
Similar circumstances prevailed last Saturday as the Whites
d< feated the (<reens 54-12, despite a low-scoring final quarter.
( Mtxervcrs might tend to draw certain conclusions from this
data. Questions might be asked: ‘‘Are the Ducks that good?”
“Are the Ducks that bad?”
I he fit.st question, of course, would be based upon the high
scoring performances of both teams in both contests. The second
query, something similar to a noil-confidence vote, would be a
teaction to the apparent lack of defense in the spring games.
At tn.illy, however, the games did not test Oregon's defensive
potentialities. In Saturday’s dash, for example, the regulars
faced the third-stringers for part of the game, and the second
stringers opposed the fourth team for the remainder.
in the final quarter, the offensive and defensive clubs were
more evenly matched, contributing to the low score in that per
iod.
vrrensive Advantages
i wo additional factors involved offensive advantages over the
defenders, hirst, Coach Jim Aiken lias devoted most of his time
and energy to the development of a potent offensive unit.
Second reason : the defensive elevens concentrated upon a 6-2
2 1 arrangement and did not change it at anv time. It is not dilti
i u 11 to out maneuver ait opponent when his plans are obvious.
A number of freshman arc listed on Coach Aiken's first and
second squads. Duckling Coach Rill i’.owcrman correctlv pre
dicted last November that several of his gridders would make
the varsity team.
Ilowerman classified the hrosh into four divisions. The list,
stating the varsity potentialities for each Duckling, was given to
Kugene Register-* .uard Sports h.ditor Dick Strite.
Ihe following classifications were used: Certainties, Prob
ables, Possible, and Impossibles. Bowcrman listed two “Certain
ties," Halfback Jack Morris of Medford and Guard Howard All
man. a \\ est \ irginian. Morris is now in the army, but Allman is
li-ted at center on the varsity second string.
Probables Failed
Bo we nn an s "Probables" included Center Dave Lowe, now in
tbe army, Knd Don Hedgepeth (who turned out for baseball in
stead of spring football), Tackle Max Kendig, Guard Jack South
worth, 1 ackle Pat O l’rien, and Halfback Cece Hodges.
< )nlv one of these, Cece Hodges, is listed among Aiken's first
three teams. Hodges i- a third-string halfback. The others either
did not make the grade, did not turn out, or left school.
Only one of Bowennan s ten "Possibles” ranks among Aiken’s
■H top gridders. He is Barney Holland, second-string quarter
back, a fine passer.
'I he other "Possibles” included fiery Pullback Hostetler, Full
back Bob Krasneski (who didn't turn out this spring), Defensive
Lineman Terry Picknell (who is now in the service), Defensive
Back Gary Pickens, Guard Dewey Sceales, Defensive Lineman
O'Xeill Sanders, 'Tackles' Harold Farr and Ken Sipe, and De
fensive Back Duane Siebert.
Bowerman’s “Impossibles” were not named, but they were
conspicuous by their absence from the other classifications. Three
of them arc now listed on Aiken’s second and third strings.
Cach Cashes In
They are Halfback Ted Anderson, (second-string halfback),
Left Knd Neil Tardio (third team), and Right End Jerry Cach
(also third squad). The success of each of them is a tribute to a
fighting spirit that will not be crushed. That’s the kind of spirit
that coaches like to see.
It is interesting to note that the six freshmen who were listed
among the first three strings included one “Certainty,” and
“Probable,” one “Possible,” and three “Impossibles.”
'I'llis is no reflection upon Bowerman’s personnel-evaluation
methods (which are very good if his brilliant prep coaching
record is any criterion). He was merely stating the potentialities
of the young athletes. He could hardly foresee the future, know
ing who would join the army, who would flunk out of school, who
would develop laziness, etc.
He probably left Anderson off the list because lie thought that
Anderson would concentrate upon track. Nevertheless, the New
port speedster decided to play varsity football, and he has shown
a great amount of ability in the halfback position.
His 60-yard touchdown gallop Saturday was not his longest
run in a Duck uniform—he returned an Oregon State Rook kick
off 94 yards for a TD last fall on Hayward-Field.
