The Dueka are determined to atone for the 41-0 drubbing they took at the handa of UCLA laat weekend, and the Cougars happen to be the first team they run in to. Oregon la in better physical condition than they have been all season, ' Dueka Drill Coach Len Casanova, worried after the Ducks repeatedly missed their signal counts In practice during the week, held a dummy offensive drill Wednesday, but spent much of the time during the week working on defense. The Cougars boast a double thieat in Pullback Duke Wash i Ington. the second leading rusher on the Coast, and Quarterback Bob Iverson who has thrown six touchdown passes thia year.

That's how Freshman Football Coach Bill Hammer expresses one of the i major changes in grid scouting j over the past quarter century. Tabulating opponents' strong j and weak points has grown streamlined along with the “pass ing ball” and the uniform ward i robe. As Hammer said, the accent Is no longer on stealing the other teams’ “secret” plays, for such things are practically non-existent t o d a v. .Some schools e\en publish printed diagrams of their formations for general distribution. Without having to dodge burly j assistant coaches and guards, ] today's master Peeping Tom can : relax in the special part of the press box provided for him as he i checks individual and team char acteristics. The visiting scout is given resumes of the game ac , tion each quarter and can enjoy a buffet lunch during halftime. All Colleges Indulge Practically all colleges use at least one or two scouts, and the practice is wide spread in most high schools and even some jun ior highs. All of Oregon's assistant coaches spy on other schools, according to Hammer. Each coach follows one team through the three looks allowed the — Ducks by conference rules, and compiles "dope” sheets on it. The scout then stays with the Web foot gridders when they meet “his" team to put his knowledge to further use. What does «n Oregon scout look for in the other team? “I fan usually get what I need by watching five things,” said Hammer. “Those are the rush ing offensive ami defense, the passing offensive anil defense and the kicking game. As for individual plays, you usually know what the other team is going to do if you've been in the same conference for several years.” Individuals Watched Within these five generalities come other things that a scout searches out. Strong points and weaknesses of individual play ers, aggressiveness and repeti tions in play calling come under this classification.
