Picks Oregon
By FREHTIGF.OUH
PROGNOSTICATOR
I'm back again and still wondering why I abandoned the Ducks
last weekend. Twice I’ve put the Ducks on the short end of the score
and both times they made me wonder why I'm in this business.
Sometimes you just don’t get any cooperation.
Last week 1 came up with 18 right and 10 wrong for a .095 percent
age. It may not seem very high but it’s better than the .513 of the
previous week. I still have a headache from that.
I’m only .030 for the year—but batting slumps always end. I’m still
great. Heck, Ted Williams himself would he proud of my average. But
watch—these picks will put me above the .700 mark.
OREGON 1 OVER Washington. After Oregon's last two wins over
Stanford and Air Force I’m not going to sell the Ducks short this
time. The Webfoots have found winning ways and their chances are
enhanced by Washington’s loss of two key players. The Huskies will
be playing without Don Moore, the conference’s leading rusher, and
I’tul Cope, their leading receiver. But Washington is always tough,
especially when they play Oregon, as previous meetings between the
two have shown.
UCLA 3 over California. Cal won a big one over Washington last
week for their second conference win without a loss but Tommy
Prothro’s explosive Bruins have too much offense in the Gary Beban
Mt’l Farr combo. You can bet the Bruins aren't taking Cal lightly
USC BY 14 over Clemson. Southern Cal has a string of three con
ference victories in a row and should prove too much for Clemson.
USC is in a head to head battle with UCLA for the Rose Bowl and
for national ranking. So they won't want to blow this one.
OREGON STATE 6 over Arizona State. Arizona State has a 3 2
tecord and upset Brigham Young last week, hut Oregon State has
found a new quarterback in sophomore Steve Prcecc Preece has
taken over for Paul Brothers and could provide the consistency at
quarterback that the OSU offense needs. He led the Beavers to a win
over Utah last week and should do the same against ASU.
ILLINOIS 3 over Stanford This promises to lie another close
—-1 Big 10 -AAWU interconfcrence
contest. The Illim dropped their
first three but then upset Ohio
State and beat Indiana. They
seem to be a more solid team
than the Indians who have lost
two straight.
AIR FORCE 3 over Colorado
State. Another of the close ones
that are characteristic of this
week's schedule. The Falcons had
a bad day against Oregon but i
they will bounce back and regain
the form which led them to wins |
over Washington and Navy. They
still have one of the nation's finest
defenses, allowing an average of
only a touchdown per game.
MICHIGAN STATE 4 over Pur I
due. Thi* is probably the na-i
tion’s top game — between
two nationally Tanked* Big Ten
teams. Number two ranked MSU
is seeking its second consecutive
Big Ten title and would like noth-;
ing better than to dim the Rose
Bowl hopes of Purdue. They will
be primed for this one and have
too much power for the Boiler-;
makers.
NOTRE DAME 4 over Okla
homa. Oklahoma has improved
steadily throughout the season
but they’ll need to pull a rabbit
out of their helmets to beat the j
nation's number one ranked team.
When these two teams meet any
thing can happen so it should be
close.

A Poet's View
of
A Football Game
Neath a tempered sun, on an
autumn day,
a football game gets under way.
The stands are packed, all
warmly dressed.
Wagers are placed on scores
yet guessed.
There’s the usual sound, from
the usual crowd.
The lovely cheer squad (so well
endowed).
Pop corn and peanuts and soda
pop too,
there’ll be an awful mess when
this day is through.
THE KICK OFF! the waiting
ends.
One group will attack, the other
defend.
Across one hundred yards of
lined off space
the football warriors bravely
race.
Through the center or around
right end,
or maybe a pass, it all depends.
A play begins. A flag is
dropped.
A whistle blows, and the clock
is stopped.
And many more plays, all much
the same,
but all a part of a football
game.
The Anal gun announces the
end.
Momentary enemies are once
more friends.
The crowd is exuberant,
though cold and wet,
and I’m exuberant too beside
my TV set.

First Duck Since Dickson
Snow Makes Majors
Former Oregon pitcher Robbie Snow joined the Boston Red Sox
major league baseball team Wednesday—and became the first Web
foot since Jim Dickson to gain that level of competition.
Snow, who graduated as a senior in 1B64, led the Class A Carolina
league in victories during the 1866 season, posting a 20-2 mark with
his Winston-Salem Club.
The southpaw led the Oregon team with a 1.35 earned run average
his sophomore year and then was named to the All-Northern division
squad his junior year and to All-Coast his senior year.
He made the major leagues in a 16 man player shake-up that sent
an equal number of players in and out of the Red Sox' major league
organization.
Dickson left the Webfoots as a freshman in 1950, and has been a
relief pitcher on about eight major league clubs.
