Next Oregon Opponent WSU Hot-Cold Team By RON BADERM VN Emerald Sports Writer The Oregon football team, turn ing in recent weeks to tricks of lameness and injuries, travels to Pullman this weekend to play a not - too • impressive Washington State team While the Ducks were losing to San Jose State last Saturday. WSU was upsetting a tough Idaho squad. The Cougars were helped by Bill Gaskins, a track hurdler who made his way for a 92-yard touchdown. The Cougars have been quite unpredictable heretofore in their first seven games. In their initial outing. Texas Tech, a team that won only one game in 1962, came on strong and. with the aid of three field goals, upset WSU. 16-7. Tie Big Ten Iowa However, the following Satur day saw the Cougars bare their fangs at Big Ten Conference foe. Iowa, and battle the Hawkeyes to a 14-14 tie. The game was marked by a controversial play, when, with only a few second* remaining on the clock. Iowa was, given possession of the ball when it was actually fourth down for the Cougars. Halfback Clarence Williams came of age in this contest, run ning for one 23-yard touchdown, and gaining substantial yardage in an 80-yard drive that led to another tally. In all. Williams gained 130 yards on 21 carries. Spartans Defeat Both Teams The following week Williams ran for 148 yards on 18 carries, including a 75-yard touchdown. LARKY HILL Probably Lost for Season in a 7-2 VVSU victory over Arizo na. The next Cougar opponent was the San Jose State Spartans. The Spartans managed to contain Wil liams. then ranked second na tionallv in rushing vardage, and held WSU to 64 yards on the ground while beating them. 13-8. The Oregon State Beavers pro vided WSU's next competition and proved too tough for the Cougars to handle After the Cou gars' brief glory of an 80-yard scoring drive, the Beavers scored 30 consecutive points to grind out the Cougar victory hopes. Washington State Coach Jim Sutherland admitted they were beaten physically as well as scorewise. This may explain the subsequent defeat at the hands of Army, and the Cougars' minus PAT MATSON Sophomore tackle keeps clean bill of health.

Following the 23-0 loss to Army, the Cougars heat Idaho, 14-10, in somewhat of an upset Unless the injury-riddled Ore gon offense is quickly healed the Cougars just might have enough manpower to hand the Ducks another humiliating upset. Cos Finds It Hard To Explain Upset “It was just one of those days you can't explain.” said Oregon Head Coach Len Casanova. The day was Saturday, Novem ber 2, and what the Webfoot head mentor couldn't explain was the Duck’s upset loss to San Jose State, 13-7. “Nothing went right,” contin ued Cas, “we made some mistakes we just can’t account for. “I found it pretty hard to find anything to say to them at half time, here was a team that had gained only 10 yards in the first half, and did not have a single first down, yet had 13 points on the score board l couldn't really say our defense was bad,” Cas said Speaking of Jack Sovereign’s inability to move the Webfoots through the air. Cas said, "I think he did a pretty fair job. You can't blame a quarterback when somebody misses a block.” He was referring to the pass interception w'hich went for 75 yards and San Jose’s second touchdown “Jack was a little bit cautious about his throwing,” Cas added "but I don’t think he can be criti cized.” The hero of the game was cer tainly Lu Bain. He turned in an; outstanding performance at full back and stepped in at the quar terback slot to direct the Webfoot: attack. “Overall,” Cas said. “Lu did a j real outstanding job both offen sively and defensively.” Cas also praised the efTorts of sophomore halfback Dennis Kel ler and reserve tackle Lowell Dean. Injury wise, Cas had anything but good news for the Webfoots. “Larry Hill will be out for two: weeks and possibly the rest of the season,” Cas said. “The ironic thing about Hill’s injury,” Cas added, “was that just before the game I handed him his invitation to play in the Hula Bowl.” Refering briefly to the game again, Cas said, “We sure gave them a real impetus to win when we gave them 13 points in the first quarter.” Order of 'O' The Order of the ‘O’ will meet at noon today at the Del ta Upsilon house.

LU BAIN And One Remained In a vain attempt to write an ode to the Firehouse Four' I dis covered this poem, “Ode to the Loss of the Steamship ‘Pacific,’ ” by Mason published in 1875. It struck home, especially the passage, “AH lost . . . but one.” Unless you're coaching the Green Bay Packers you can't af ford to lose three of your starting four backs Only Lu Bain re tnained healthy after the San Jose State game And even Bain can't play two positions at once He tried, but after shuffling be tween fullback and quarterback, he returned to the more familiar fullback position. I say "familiar" because it has been four years since Bain has handled the signal calling duties On the dark November day— last Saturday—Larry Hill was helped from Hayward Field It was probably Hill’s last game for the Webfoots. Two weeks ago. although not yet November, Bob Berry and Mel Renfro took their lumps against Washington Fond memories of the past. You bet. It has been a pleasure watching these four men playing havoc with opposing defenses I think it would be a safe bet to say that with all four operating in the same backfleld, Oregon would have a 6-1 record rather than the 4 3 record it presently owns. Remember Renfro and Berry tearing apart the Arizona rushing and passing defense and Hill's two- touchdown performance against Idaho this year’’ Possibly Lcn Casanova should adopt the tactics of another very successful coach Coach Frank Filchock. former New York Giant quarterback, of St Joseph's Parochial High School in Denver has adopted the policy of no scrimmages or shoulder pads in practice. It has proved quite suc cessful for his man shy team as they have racked up a 41 record for the season.
