THEMES WANTED
Homecoming Dedicated to Hayward
by Frances Love
Emerald Reporter
People affectionately called Wil
liam L. (Bill) Hayward, “Dean
the American Track Coaches."
His death in 1947 marked the end
' of 44 years service to the Univer
sity of Oregon athletic depart
ment. To the members of this de
partment, the University and the
outside world, “Bill” was more
than a coach, he was counselor,
friend, teacher and the legend.
He came to Eugene in 1904.
During his career here, he coach
ed approximately 1,000 athletes.
The boys with “no ability” he
made into outstanding athletes;
the boys with natural ability, he
made into Olympic champions.
Hayward himself was no strang
er to the Olympics for he was se
lected six times to the staff of
the American teams. Appearing
on the Olympic staffs of the games
held in London in 1908; Stock
holm in 1912; Antwerp in 1920;
Par is in 1924; Amsterdam in 1928
and Los Angeles in 1932.
Injuries meant little to him. If
Theme Deadline
Final deadline for submission
of theme suggestions for Home
coming is noon Saturday, ac
cording to Geri Porrltt and Bar
bara Wilcox, co-chairmen. Sug
gestions may be placed in boxes
in the Student Union or the Co
op, they said.
Homecoming, to be held Nov.
20 and 21, is being dedicated
tiiis year to Bill Hayward, Ore
gon track coach, for whom Hay
ward field is named, announced
Homecoming co-chairmen Dor
othy Kopp and Bob Pollack.
Suggestions for the theme may
include references to Hayward,
Miss Forritt said. However,
other suggestions are also
sought, she added.
Recent Homecoming themes
have been: 1945, “Ducks Revive
in ’45’*; 1947, “Return, Recall,
Recapture”; 1950, “New Union
and Re-Union,” and 1952, “Sing
the Story, Oregon.”
one of his athletes turned up with
a sprained ankle or pulled muscle,
Hayward would simply glance at
it and say “cut it off.’’ Then he
would get out the shears and begin
fixing a device out of-various odds
and ends, to make it possible for
the injured player to compete
without further injury or pain.
An example of this technique ap
pears in the case of an Oregon
football player many years ago.
He was playing with a bad case
of water on the knee. Hayward
diagnosed the case, then with his
usual adeptness in such matters,
took a short section of an old bi
cycle inner tube and vulcanized
the ends together into a small
circle.
After inflating this with a bi
cycle pump he placed it on the
player’s knee, bandaged this over
with a piece of heavy sole leather,
then concealed this contraption by
the knee bend of the player’s foot
ball pants and sent him out to
play.
These “rubber doughnuts” are
now standard equipment available
at any sporting goods store.
This legendary figure supposed
ly was born on July 2, 1868. In his
youth he was an outstanding ath
lete--famous as a track star and
as a field performer. He also tour
ed the prize-fighting circuit with
Gentleman Jim Corbett and wat
his sparring partner before Cor
bett's match with John L. Sulli
van.
His age is one of the hazy fea
tures of his life. No one seems to
know exactly how old he was.
Although his official age at death
was 79, he was reputed to be 78,
in 1922. Other reports say he
celebrated his 70th birthday in
1929 and his 79th in 1947.
In his obituary editorial appear
ing in the Oregonian he was
termed “one of the world's great
est coaches, a peerless trainer and
a grand sportsman. It will be Bill
Hayward as a personality who will
be remembered by those who
worked out under his keen eye,
not the great athlete he was in
earlier days, the Olympic coach,
and first citizen of Eugene.’’
