Oregon a football squad ran
through another practice session
of offense and defense Wednesday
afternoon for their impending
clash with the University of Idaho
Vandals on Hayward field Satur
day.
On defense Coach Len Casa
nova had the third team run Idaho
plays at the first and second
teams. And judging from the suc
cess of the third team, the first
two units may be in for a rough
time Saturday.
Defense Ragged
On top of the recent poor show
ing by the defense, Casanova ex
pressed concern over the number

of Oregon injuries.
Ducks currently on the dis
abled list -include airplane cas
ualties Dean Van Leuven and
Jerry Nelson, both probably out
for the season and Larry Rose,
who Is counted on to shoulder
some of Van Leuven’s duties at
fullback but who is currently
out with a foot injury. He may
see action Saturday.
End Len Berrie is still doubtful
as is giant End Emery .Barnes,
who has an injured hip.
Contrasting with the Oregon in
jured list is the Idaho team which
at present has all 34 gridders in
top shape. The Vandals are es
pecially well rested in that they
had an open date and did not plav
last Saturday. v y

Vandals Ready
One Idaho player, senior Guard
Ray Faraca, will be in the start
ing lineup for the first time since
he was injured in the first game
of the season. Also recovered from
recent injuries and available for
duty will be End Lou Mendiola and
Tackle Burdette Hess.
But despite the seeming well
being of Coach Babe Curfman’s
team, the Vandals are reported
to be quite lacking in depth.
Starting backfield for Idaho
shapes up with either veteran
George Eidam or Soph Bob Haines*
at. quarter, hard-running Dick
Pickett and Jay Buhler at the
halfbacks, and Flip Kleffner, top
punter in the conference, at full
back.
Haines, a 6-foot, 182-pounder,
is ranked as the finest passer to
come to Idaho in years but lack
ing in experience. Recent reports
indicate, however, that he has
been improving fast in drills.
