Last weekend's football games produced a lot of interesting
.sidelights to the actual winning and losing of the games, both
on the coast and elsewhere around the country, in Oregon’s
game with the powerful UCLA Bruins, the Lucks kept alive
a record of never losing the pre-game Hip of the coin this
season. (, aptain Ron 1’heister his won every toss in the Ducks’
eight games.
In this same Duck-Bruin game, the UCLA team went
for a touchdown the first time they got their hands on the
BON I'HKISTER
falls Every Tom Right
ball. I his isn t unusual for
the nation’s No. 1 team,
but the Bruins have tallied
on their first attempt in
every game except against
strong Maryland. It’s
doubtful if many people
will argue that Red Sand
ers’ boys aren’t tops in the
country.
Another interesting point
about the < )regon-UCLA
game was that the Coast con
ference leaders used only 28
men in trampling the Ducks
41-0. The Bruins’ first-string
line played virtually the en
tire game, since 15 of the 28
men used were hacks.
A new all-time school scor
ing record for one season was
in sight and the Bruins were
after it, which accounts for
their decision not to put in more replacements in the game s
final stages. Contrast this with the Michigan State-WSC
game in which tlie Spartans used 54 men in whipping the
Cougars 54-6,
Record Broken
It’s too had that Oregon had to play the Bruins in the
south this year because when the Bruins held George Shaw
to only 29 yards, his lowest total since coming to Oregon,
it just about killed Shaw’s chances of beating out Califor
nia’s Paul Larson for All-American honors in the eyes of
California sports writers. Los Angeles and San Francisco
writers usually control who will make the all-star teams
from the coast, and their support will most likely swing
over to Larson now.
A few other notes on last week’s grid contests; Purdue
gained .112 yards on only 12 passes against Iowa, hut the
Jlawkeyes picked up 368 yards rushing and won 25-14...
Alan Ameche of \\ isconsin became the busiest running hack
of all-time when he broke the NCAA career rushing record
set by San Francisco’s Ollit Matson in 1951 . . . the Cleveland
Browns of the National Football league tied an all-time pro
record by racking up 34 first downs against the Washington
Redskins in winning 62-3.
OSC Mentor Favors Huskies
Slats Gill, OSC hoop coach, has been quoted as saying he
thinks Washington’s Huskies are most-likely candidates for
this season’s Northern Division basketball crown. Gill has
enough material on his own team to lick the somewhat inex
perienced Huskies almost any time, but it looks' like lie’s
scared of not being able to lean on currently ineligible Swede
1 lalbrook as much as last season.
Oregon’s cage team is working out this year without the
services of Bob Glaves, reserve center for the Duck teams
the past two years. He is on probation scholastically and
has dropped basketball to concentrate on his studies.
1 ’racticing with the team, although not eligible for this vear’s
play, is Ted "Dutch” Levine, a transfer from CCNY who is
just out of the service. 1 Ie came to Oregon lifter becoming ac
quainted with W ally Russell, Duck football player, in the
service. He is now learning the Oregon system in order to be
ready for the 1955-56 team.

He helps teachers
in 54,000
classrooms
Radio was barely out of the earphone stage 26
years ago when a new program was beamed from
a San Francisco studio. It featured a string trio
and was based on the idea that good music, when
clearly understood, could entertain and teach, too.
Actually, only 72 Western schools had radio sets
then, but with that performance the Standard
School Broadcast went “on the air,” to serve stu
dents and teachers of the West with a brand
new idea in educational aids.
Today, when Conductor Carmen Dragon lifts
his baton, it’s “time for the Standard School
Broadcast” in over 54,000 classrooms through
the West, Alaska and Hawaii. Counting chil
dren, teachers and home listeners, the program
reaches a weekly audience of nearly ll/2 mil
lion. That string trio has grown to a sym
phonic orchestra with a dramatic cast, choral
group and guest vocal and instrumental artists.
Selections range the musical alphabet from
symphony to jazz. Each year’s course follows
a carefully planned outline published in a man
ual supplied to teachers by Standard to serve
as a guide in blending music-enjoyment with
subjects like art, literature, social studies. Now
in its 27th year, the Standard School Broad
cast is radio’s oldest education program, heard
today over more than 100 stations. Its goal is
to help Western children gain an absorbing new
interest in the world’s good music and—
through music—a broader knowledge and un
derstanding of the world around them.
Listen to Standard School Broadcast every Thursday.
Check your newspaper radio log for time and station.
