Ducks Slate Final Drill Today By Larry Lavelle With all of the other Webfoot teams scattered throughout the vast Northwest, University of Oregon's annual spring football climax, a full-dress reheat sal lit Hayward field, will have n mono poly on the spotlight today. The annual scrimmage between the Whites and the Greens will begin at 10:15 am. DST. There will be no kickoffs, punts, field goal attempts or conversion tries, but otherwise it will be a regula tion football game. No admission will be charged. Tht> Finish Oregon has completed 19 days of practice and with today s scrim mage will have exhausted the 20 allowed by the National Collegiate Athletic association. The Webfools art* coached by Len Casanova, who was named head football coach when Jim Aiken resigned last summer. With Casanova at the helm of an in experienced crew, the Ducks won two and lost eight in 1931. His aides are Jack Roche, as sistant coach, who has worked un der Casanova at Santa Clara and Pittsburgh; Johnny McKay, back field coach, who was one of Ore- j gon’s better backs in 1948 and 1949; Gene Harlow*, line coach and chief scout, who has tutored at both Alabama and Idaho; and Bill Bowemian, end coach, who is presently occupied with the var sity track team. The Big Four of Oregon football has worked overtime on a concoc tion which they hope will raise the University of Oregon's stock from the vicinity of the Pacific Coast conference’s basement. Thus, some 40 athletes, many of whom are short on experienn will gather some vital, game-like action this morning at Hayward field in the final drill of the 19f> spring grid program. Head coach Len Casanova, sporting a cumber LEN CASANOVA some brace as evidence of a spinal disc operation last month, shows some signs of optimism, ••We'll be mighty thin, but the ( men are willing to learn," he: stated. Just how thin the Ducks j are, especially in the line, is the key to whether or not the Web foots can improve on their eighth place finish of 1951.
