DUCKS, 20-12
Oregon Upsets Nebraska
iMKMORIAL STADIUM,
Lincoln, Neb.—University of
Qih'lfon s football team showed
Ipebraska and several million
viewers that it isn't going
to be a soft touch for anyone
this season. C oach Ten Casa
nova s 37-inembcr grid squad
displayed its most powerful
tunning attack in more than a
/ear and took advantage of every
^ornhusker miscue to post a de
rive 20-12 viatory, Saturday, in
'JBC’s televised “Game of the
Week.”
Hated as one-touchdown under
dogs by most pre-game experts,
the VVebfoots from Eugene
struck hard and fast for two
touchdowns in the first quarter,
and another score in the second,
and then played steller defensive
ball during the last half to wrap
up their first opening day win in
four years.
For Coach Casanova, it was the
first victorious football inaugural
since he took over the head foot
ball coaching duties at Santa
Clara in 1946.
Saturday’s grid battle was
almost a carbon copy of the
contest that took place In Port
land a year ago—except for the
winning team. In 1952, It was
Nebraska who capitalized on
Oregon errors to Ice the game.
Saturday, it was Oregon who
got the breaks, and the Ducks took
full advantage of every one.
Oregon won the flip of the coin

On Nebraska’s first try from

work, according to the athletic
department.
Investigation Asked
Three of the OSC students are
•said to have returned last Thurs
day evening to pick up Clark’s
effects. Clark hasn’t been on the
Oregon campus since, but is re
ported to have been at Corvallis
Bowerrnan said Sunday evening
he would file the protest with Or
lando J. Hollis, Oregon’s PCO
faculty representative and con
ference president. Action cannot
be taken until Hollis, who is cn
* tnP’ returns to the campus,
Bowerrnan declared. Hollis will
then be asked to seek a full inves
tigation from Conference Com
missioner Victor O. Schmidt.
Codes Violated
In a statement released to the
Oregonian, Bowerrnan said: “Wa
are going to pursue the matter
because we feel that something
like this is a violation of our con
ference athletic code and of our
amateur sports code. We believe
that Oregon State is guilty of
violating the spirit of the confer
ence when it sends representatives
to another school to induce stu
dents to 'jump’ that school.
“We know the names of the four
Oregon State representatives, and
we hope to produce evidence that
these boys were representatives
of the Oregon State coaching
staff. If this is so, this would be
in direct violation of the confer
ence recruiting code.”
Casanova Contacted
Len Casanova, head football
coach, and Leo Harris, athletic
director, contacted by long-dis
tance phone Saturday night in
Lincoln, Nebr., told Bowerman
that they both felt "appropriate
action ’ should be taken.
Since Clark had not finished bi»
registration, Bowerman pointed
out that it was legally possible
for the athlete to charge his mind
and enrol] at another school. He
would not lose his eligibility by
such a move, said Bowerman.
Roy S. Keene, OSC athletic di
rector, and Slats Gill, OSC basket
ball coach, both said they knew
nothing of the matter when in
formed of the Oregon charge.,
Clark was Portland All-City
basketball forward and a football
quarterback last year for Een
son's state prep playoff finalists.
