Frosh Slate Rook Home Opener Ity OOltDON ROSKNHKKG Sports Writer f’oach Ed Johns' freshman football team takes on the Ore gon State Hooks in this year’s first meeting between the two teams on the Hayward Field turf at 1:30 p.m. Friday. The Frosh opened their season last Saturday against Washington State in Pullman, losing by a 20 21 count. According to coach Johns, the offensive team moved the ball well, while the defensive unit bad "several lapses.” Quarterback Eric Olson, a good passer, fired a touchdown pass and several other key passes to end Gary Heetcr. The TL) pass went for 81 yards late in the ! fourth quarter. Olson followed this play up with a two point con version pass to Hceter.

Low Team Finds IM Grid Success By LYNN MIW'KEN Sports Writer With playoffs having starterl this week, a team sporting al most as much beef as coach Lcn Casanova’s varsity crew seems to be tile class of the intramural touch football program The I.cgal Eagles, as the School of law boys call themselves, showed strong credentials for top honors as they amassed 100 points while yielding none on their way to three straight tri umphs. The lawyers to be show great strength, if not finesse, with a forward wall averaging close to 220 pounds, and led by pro-size 1) 1 o c k e r s, John Carson, 200 pounds, and Mike Dowsett, a 250 pounder. The defense too has its mon sters, as defensive ends Lou Fa sano (ex-USC shot putter) and Terry O'Sullivan, both over 220 pounds, terrify opposing quarter backs Diamond Stars Star A brace of ex-L'imersity base halt stars, Larry Jensen, and Wally Paimberg, along with former OSU basketball standout. Gary Rossi, add agility to the receiving end of quarterback Mark Mrf'ollork’s passes. Form er Duck basketball player, I.arry Cooley, keeps the rest of the Legal Eagles’ defensive squad on their toes. I-ast Saturday the future law yens met their sternest test to date on the aptly-named IM Field (Insurmountable Mud) in the form of the Hawaiians, a team that averaged at least 120 pounds —including mud. Rising to the challenge, the Legal Eagles mixed a deft ground attack (when the receivers fell down) and an outstanding pass ing game (when the pass defend ers fell down) with a solid de fense- the 5-7 Hawaiian quarter back couldn't see over the bar risters head*—on the way to a convincing 200 victory. Key to Legal Eagle success so far seems to lie in their astound ing game tactics. Typical moves include triple laterals on kick offs (net gain: —10 yards), short passes to the 0-8 Carson and calling timeouts at the end of the game so the opposition can run one more play. Tactics like these can hardly breed failurg. Stadium Money Problems... (Continued from page 4) Harris would like to sec a 44,000 seat stadium which “should be flexible. If we need more seats, we should be able to expand." That figure breaks down to 18,000 along each side line and 4,000 in each end zone. Some sources have said that this figure is too small to begin with since it obviously will need expanding in the future But there has to be a start and, if the money can be raised for the 44,000 seats, we’re for a 44,000 scat stadium. Harris' financial plan is a good one It has some drawbacks, such as the part about gaining the needed money via the student fee route—it would need the approval of both the students and the president. But, if Harris sticks to his statement about not raising the fees, we’d give a strong nod of approval . . . we’d even give a strong nod of approval if it’d cost us an extra 12 bucks. Sorry if our bias shows through. An AP Fault and the PAC Record We’ve been retaining faith in the Associated Press throughout our journalism career, but recently we’ve been having a little trouble believing the black machine. For instance, this week, in the A P’s top ten football selections, the “others receiving votes" included Oregon State, a not too prosperous team that now sports a 2 3 record. They did beat Idaho last week, though. . . .

Last year’s freshmen split the two-game series with Oregon State. This season’s second game will be played in Corvallis next month. Defense Should Improve Coach Johns stated that since few of Oregon State’s players have appeared in this area, their indi vidual talents are fairly unknown. Consequently, no special defenses will be used to control any one star player. In addition to Olson and Heetcr, halfbacks John Roche and Claxton Welch also showed promise. Roche took a double reverse hand off from Welch late in the second quarter and ran 35 yards for the second Frosh touchdown. “Roche and Welch ran well and Olson passed real well against Washington State,” stated coach Johns. He added that all three will start again this week. They will be joined in the hackfield by fullback Keith Sherman. Besides these backfield stars, the Frosh will be going with what coach Johns called “the best group of offensive linemen IM Schedule Theta Chi and llauna face ofl Thursday on the IM Field at 4 p.m. for the intramural touch football championships. Both gained the finals by winning semi final games Wednesday. Theta Chi blanked Watson, and llauna edged the Legal Eagles, 19-13. Both winners now sport a 5-0 record. Soccer Meeting All interested persons are ask ed to attend a soccer meeting Thursday at 730 p.m. in 101 PE. A movie will be shown and game plans for Saturday’s encounter with OSU at 2 p.m. on the IM Field will be discussed. we’ve had since I’ve been here.” Tackles Jess Hart, a 235-pounder from Roseburg, and Ed Sites, 218, from Portland’s Grant High, are two of the top linemen. This week the Frosh will try to team their potent offense with a more consistent defense. The outcome of the game depends largely upon how well they do this.
