    Ducks Drill For
Spartan Defense
Oregon s varsity gave special attention to fundamentals in a
light practice Tuesday.
I’lay-in the line was given special notice. This was probably
promoted after inspecting San Jose’s offensive record. The
coast's number one independent has scored 123 points with all
Swim Team
Drills Begin
Workouts have started for the
freshmen and varsity swimming
team, according to John Bor
chardt, swimming coach. The first
practice was held Monday after
noon.
Workouts are scheduled for the
rest of fall term, five days a week.
The practices are scheduled for
3:30 p.m. on Monday, Wednesday,
and Fridays, and 2:30 on Tuesdays
and Thursdays.
Any frosh or varsity prospects
Interested ip the teams should see
Borchardt or turn out for one of
the practices.
Swimming competition doesn't
start until winter term. Last year
the Webfoot splashers finished
second in the dual meet schedule
and third in the Northern Division
meet.
The freshmen are not allowed
to compete on the varsity squad
because of a conference ruling,
but they will enter the state AAU
meet, which they won last year.
but six coming on the ground. The
Spartans run from both the
straight and split T.
Defense Lauded *
The San Jose type defense gave
the Ducks noticeable trouble. The
linebackers would alternate be
tween crashing and floating. This
along with a variety of defensive
formations caused the blocking as
signments to change on almost
every play.
Passing Stressed
The Ducks continued to work on
their passing offense despite the
noticeable lack of capable receiv
ers. This is probably founded on
the Spartan^s record in the past
five games. They have been scor
ed on six times through the air
but have also intercepted 12 passes
for a total of 188 yards in returns.
Left Tackle Hal Reeve has been
selected as game captain for Sat
urday’s game against San Jose on
Hayward field.

PigskinChamp
Sigma Alpha Epsilon showed
themselves to be the class of the
1953 intramural touch football
league by dropping Phi Delta The
ta 12-0 in the final game of the
season, Tuesday.
Two quick touchdowns in the
second quarter wrapped the game
up for SAE as tfie Phi Delts never
seriously threatened during the
game.
Savage to Davis
Stan Savage set off the scoring
spark with a 40 yard pass to Rex
Davis on the five. On next play
Bob Brittain fired a short pass to
Jack Krieger in the end zone.
Moments later Savage snagged
a 30 yard toss from Davis for the
final TD.
Many Interceptions
Numerous interceptions through
out the game by both teams ham
pered each team's offense. SAE
amused the crowd late in the final
quarter with their hipper-dipper
antics while grabbing a Phi Delt
pass on the Phi Delt 40. Four hur
ried laterals succeeded in bringing
the ball down to the 20 yard stripe
of their surprised opponents.

Garrett, with assists from a pair
of sticky-fingered ends, has bolted
into the passing leadership of the
Pacific Coast Conference.
His brilliant exhibition Satur
day against UCLA gave him a
total of 49 completions in 90 at
tempts for 602 yards and six
touchdowns, thus wresting the
.lead from Washington's Sandy
Lederman, who has been the No.
1 passer from the opening week
end. Paul Larson of California is
third. •
Garrett’s favorite targets, ends
Sam Morley and John Steinberg,
rang one-two in receptions. Sam
caught nine Saturday, one less

18 for 195 yards and two touch
downs. Steinberg has 13 for 173
yards and one touchdown with
Flip Kleffner, Idaho, third with 12.

good margin in the rushing lead
with 393 yards and 4.9 yards per
play; Aramis Dandoy of Southern

268. Larson retains the total of
fense leadership with 718 yards,
all but 92 of which were gained

ond with 628 yards and Lederman
third, 563.
A Conference record was broken

Opening Day of Intramurals
Two contests, one between
French hall A and Nestor hall A,
and the other between Susan
Campbell II A and Stitzer A vied
Tuesday for the most thrilling
games in the young 1953 intramur

came from behind after losing the
first game to win the next two
and win the set.
French hall was barely beaten
in the first of its three games, as
it went down to Nestor hall by a
17-15 count. In the second and
third games the whole French
team seemed to come out of a
daze, to take the contests 15-6 and
15-9.

be — but when you find out how mild
and sweet and refreshing the Medico
pipe can be, you’ll go for Medico, loo!
It's the replaceable filter in Medico
that makes the big difference. That
little filter traps dangerous nicotine
and tars, disagreeable juices and flakes.
That’s why countless smokers, begin

enjoyed the pleasures of a pipe, now en
joy the clean mild fragrance of Medico
— the pioneer in filtered smoking.
Try a Medico Pipe. See why Medico's
