Oregon Sharpens Offense
As Oregon State Game Nears
With Saturday’s all-important
football game with Oregon State
only two days pway the Univer
sity of Oregon grid squad concen
trated mainly on sharpening offen
sive plays Thursday afternoon.
Len Casanova's Ducks showed
lots of spirit during the workout

and seemed very determined to
«core their first win over the
Heavers in five years.
Shaw, Holland Sparkle
The Webfoots looked surpris
ingly sharp on their offensive pat
terns considering the sloppy con
dition of the field. George Shaw
-and Barney Holland were throw
ing passes with remarkable ac
curacy and the mud did not seem
to bother them much. If the
ir==
Ducks are able to keep their
strong aerial game clicking on the
wet gridiron which is bound to
prevail Saturday it could cause
OSC plenty of trouble.
On the receiving end of Shaw’s
and Holland’s tosses Walt Gaff
ney, Ted Anderson, and Dick
Mobley looked especially good.
James I»st
Oregon had all their fears of the
past week confirmed Thursday
when it was found that halfback
Dick James’ bad ankle still hadn’t
responded to treatment and it is
very doubtful if the Duck “mighty
mite” will see any action in Sat
urday’s tussle. James’ presence in
the Oregon backfield will be
sorely missed. The Grant’s Pass
speedboy has been the leading
ground gainer for the team all
year long and will be very hard
to replace.
Anderson May Start
Being groomed to fill In the left
halfback position left open by
James’ injury is shifty Ted An
derson. Anderson, who was a reg
ular last year, will have his hands
full if he is to adequately fill the
position. Anderson is probably the
fastest back on the Pacific Coast
and if he has a good day could
give the visiting eleven of Kip
Taylor lots of problems.
The disappointment of the
James injury was partially re
lieved Thursday when it appeared
as though fullback Dean Van
Leauven may be recovered from
his plane crash of two weeks ago
enough to see some action against
the Beavers. Van Leuven hasn't
had too much time to get back in
condition but he could prove to be
a definite asset as a depth man for
the fullback position.
Outside of James the team
seemed to be in near perfect shape
for the Civil War battle. Don
Hedgepath, Emery Barnes, and
Chuck Laird, who have been on
the injury list for some time now,
appeared to be about ready for ex
tensive duty once again and will
probably all make their presence
felt in the season finale.
Sig Eps Capture
Volleyball Tussle
Yesterday’s intramural volleyball
play had a definite bearing on at
least one of the volleyball leagues,
as the Sigma Phi Epsilon team
moved into a three way tie for the
title in league 7-A, as a result of
their win over Sigma Alpha Mu.
Sigma Phi Epsilon showed a fine
scoring punch as they rolled over
Sigma Alpha Mu in the most im
portant game of the day. The scores
of the match that placed the Sig
Eps in a tie for the league leader
ship were 15-3 and 15-9.
