Prospects are for a wet tomorrow afternoon when the Ducks
take on San Jose State and the rain might make a game that
promised to he a wide-open contest into a slippery mess.
Although San Jose has displayed a good running attack
in its games sa far, the Spartans depend upon their passing
to pick up the biggest gains. Since Oregon is ranked second
in the nation in passing and San Jose is currently tenth, a
wide open aerial game would be probable on a dry day. Look
ing at the weather so far this week, however, seems to point
to nothing but rain for Saturday, and a dull game for the
spectators. Good old Willamette valley.
i urning to a Dig event ot
the season, reliable sources
inform us that the first game
of this year’s annual home
and-home football series be
tween the Sigma Delta Chi
chapters of Oregon and Ore
gon State will be played a
week from Saturday on the
intramural field. The jour
nalism grid stars from the
Northern and Southern
branches will be out to settle
the fued which ended in a
0-0 tie last year. The second
contest will be played later
at Corvallis.
Speaking of our northern
neighbors brings out that
Wade “Swede” Halbrook, 7'3”
L » | |
“SWEDE” HALBROOK
Brine* I'd Grades
OSC basketball center and leading Northern Division scorer
last year as, a sophomore, will likely be around again this year
to plague the other four XD rivals. This wouldn’t be unusual
for anyone but Halbrook, but it seems the giant cage star
flunked a few courses last spring and then quit summer school
to get himself in dangerous territory scholastically
OSC Keeping Tabs on Halbrook
Apparently Swede has had some one riding herd on him
this fall because he has gotten a “satisfactory” rating in all his
classes while missing only one lecture. A lot of OSC fans have
said that perhaps the Beavers could build a better-balanced
team if Swede weren't around, especially with such veterans
as 1 ony “Hooks” \ lastelica, Tex Whiteman, and other sky
scrapers. But it appears that OSC coach Slats Gill doesn’t
feel that way.
The crackdown by NCAA officials on some schools this
week for violating recruiting codes reached into our own
state with Portland University getting a one year probation
tacked onto it for allegedly conducting basketball tryouts
for high school athletes. It seems that even the smallest
schools have the pressure on them to produce good teams
or else and trying to support athletic programs at some in
stitutions is becoming more trouble than it’s worth. Even
a little school like Western Illinois State College got a
reprimand for playing in a little bowl game that didn’t have
NCAA approval. •
Miami (Fla.) University got a one-year suspension from
the NCAA in their annual delinquency announcement which
will mean that they can’t play in any bowl games next New
Year’s Day. Since the Hurricanes are unbeaten in four starts
this season, they are likely candidates for the Orange Bowl,
but that’s out now. This ought to serve as a good warning to
many of the schools trying to sneak something past the keepers
of the athletic “purity” code.
Maryland Providing Grid Scholarships
Maryland and its cohorts in the Big Seven conference in
the south are perhaps the most liberal group in the nation in
athletics. Maryland’s Terrapins, a perennial football power,
has a scholarship Setup for football players that always at
tracts the top performers in,that section.
It provides 22 scholarships in each incoming class for
books, room, fees, tuition, and $15 a month expenses. Coach
Jim Tatum says that this keeps a good varsity squad of
66 players around at all times plus 22 for the freshman team,
and that this is a good minimum to work with.
