:Southern Cal Game

~ Oregon Seeks
* Upset Victory
By Bob Robinson
- Assistant Sports Editor
- Oregon’s rejuvenated football
team ran through their last big
^practice session, Thursday after
noon, before Saturday's all-impor
■* tna battle with Southern Califor
nia on Portland’s Multnomah Sta
dium turf.
» The Ducks, who only last week
end broke a four game losing
. streak by downing San Jose State
26-13, will be anxious to continue
v their winning ways in their fray
with the powerful Trojans.
^ Coach. Len Casanova's warriors
have never quite hit their stride
* in Pacific Coast Conference action
this year. The Webfoots have
■ dropped four consecutive league
games and as a result are firmly
entrenched in the conference cel
. lar- Oregon's two victories have
been over kings-x opponents.
Last Saturday afternoon on
s, Wayward field the Ducks put to
gether a steady defense and a
sparkling offense to chalk up a
very impressive win over San Jose
. State. Whether Casanova's hard
working eleven can continue to
y click against the stronger USC
^ squad remains to be seen.
* For the undefeated Trojans of
* Jess Hill this game with Oregon
i is quite important. Southern Cal
* has gone through the season with
[out a defeat so far and are very
much in the thick of the fight for
the Pacific Coast Conference
championship. The only mar on
their record is a 13-13 deadlock
> with the Washington Huskies.
1 Last week the mighty men of
\ Troy took advantage of the breaks
to subdue California's highly re
i epected Bears, 32-20.
If Southern Cal should succumb
( Oregon the Trojans’ successful
record so far would have a tre
mendous black mark added to it.
On the other hand, should Ore
gon carve out a big upset over
the Californians it would do won
ders for the morale and reputa
toin of the Duck eleven. Although
the Webfoota have played good
football against all their big op
ponents this year they as of yet
have been unable to knock one of
them over. This is their golden
opportunity.
In anticipation of the rugged
encounter his boys are due to have
Casanova ran his charges through
an extensive offensive and defen
sive drill Thursday. With the third
team running through single wing
formations, similar to those em
ployed by the Trojans, the Ducks’
first and second squads worked
quite some time on the defense.
Then the ball changed hands and
the first two elevens worked on
the offense.
During the entire session the
whole team demonstrated a spir
ited and determined attitude. It
was apparent that all of the play
ers had an upset win over South
ern Cal on their mind.
From the way the team lined
up Thursday it appeared that Cas
anova planned to stick with the
same starting team that he used
last weekend against San Jose
with one exception. Larry Rose,
sophomore fullback, will probably
open in the fullback slot against
the Trojans.
If there are no other changes,
the probable starting eleven for
the 1:30 p.m. Saturday fracas will
read like this: John Reed, left
end; Hal Reeve, left tackle; Ken
Sweitzer,• left guard; Ron Pheis
ter, center; Jack Patera, right
guard; Keith Tucker, right tackle;
Len Berrie, right end; George
Shaw, quarterback; Dick James,
left halfback; Farrell Albright,
right halfback; and Larry Rose
fullback.
