Which Ends Hayward Field's Long History By PAUL POLSKY Kmrrald Aaaorlntr Sport* Editor Cas.Staff Take Blame forWSU Loss — r ‘‘I guess I picked the wrong weekend to get sick." quipped Oregon head coach Len Casanova at Monday’s Oregon Club luncheon. Cas was referring to both the Oregon loss to Washington State University Sat urday, and the flu which he had that kept him from the luncheon the previous week after the Ducks had dumped Idaho, 287. Cas, along with scout Bruce Snyder, gave reports of the Saturday disaster at the meeting. ‘ All the trouble started when Steve Jones gained too many yards,” Cas said. "We blew one; w'e just waited too long on our decision." COUNTING FAILS Jones had just gone nine yards up the middle to the WSU two with less than a minute to go. when the Ducks’ luck and counting faltered. Cas noted that he thought the Ducks had a first down and that’s why they went for the touchdown after throwing out of bounds to stop the clock. They then went for the TD. thinking they had two downs before going for the field goal, if they didn't get into the end zone. "We had two chances in there, and you’re never 100 per cent sure the field goal is going to be good.” added Cas. “We as coaches blew it for not getting them (Trovato and Cunningham for a field goal try) in there sooner." Cas told his kids after the ball game that they didn’t lose it in the final min utes even though they had a last chance for victory. He was very proud of his team's sec ond half comeback after making some minor adjustments at intermission. "They hit hard and played well." Cas added. CRESS MAKES CATCH “Scott Cress made two real spectacular catches and Barnes made a fine grab on Trovato's toss, too,” Cas pointed out. He rated Bunker right up there too and noted that “some of the greatest catches I’ve ever seen were made out there Saturday.” Cas had plaudits for Barnes, his sopho more quarterback. “Barnes got us out of trouble time and time again. He played a real fine ball game in there," Cas said. “All in all I’m real proud of the way the kids came back to play real good ball; you can really get down out there when you’re behind by 14 points, but they fought back like men,” the Duck skipper finished. Bruce Snyder went to Tempe, Arizona last weekend to scout the Arizona State Utah game and reported that Tempe is “a much better place to scout than Boise." He was referring to the deplor able weather conditions in Idaho com pared to the balmy 80 degree tempera tures he found in Arizona. “We will face a team with a lot of talent, good talent as everyone says, but they’re not a team yet,” the sleuth said The Wildcats under coach Frank Kush are 2-5 on the year, including last week’s 21-7 loss to Utah, "They have one big problem—that’s the quarterback," Snyder said. The Wild cats have two quarterbacks in John Good man and Rick Shaw. Snyder mentioned that a lot of Arizona State fans and stu dents have pushed for Shaw to handle the number one position. QUARTERBACK DUAL Goodman was the nation’s second lead ing passer in avoiding interceptions last fall. He threw only four. However, he has thrown 13 so far this year, including three against Utah. Shaw is the rookie who has good run ning ability and may be the starter. "We don’t know which one will start against us,” Snyder added. The Duck private eye also singled out Fair Hooker, Ken Dyer, Dewy Forrester, and Travis Williams as outstanding Sun Devils. Hooker is a 6 3, 190 pound sophomore end who has 20 receptions for the year. He is also fast and agile at his split end position. Dyer at 6-5, 1BH pounds is not a big strapping end but can catch well and has good moves. Forrester is the tight end and rates as a strong blocker and tough competitor. Williams is a California JC transfer with good speed once he gets into the clear or around the corners, according to Snyder's report. A8U DISAPPOINTED ‘‘They are really disappointed in their offense, that is their big problem. They don't have a leader; they must solve the quarterback situation," Snyder added On defense, Snyder feels the Sun Devils are big and fast He reports that all five of the front wall are lettermen. The noseman was supposed to be an All-American candidate but has been "lazy” at times. "When he wants to move someone he'll do it. I am sure no one can move him when he doesn't want to be moved,” Snyder said The halfbacks are rated just average They are good on pass coverage but not too strong tackling The linebackers are the meat of the defense, both sopho mores, and have "come a long way" ac cording to Snyder since the season began. "They are hustlers, and can make the good play for you," Snyder finished. Bombers Down Tacoma 45-26 By JANET O'DELL Emerald Sports Writer Three ex-Oregon grid stars — Hugh Oldham, Ray Palm and Paul Burleson accounted for six touchdowns Sunday in the Eu gene Bombers' 45-26 win over Ta coma The remaining nine points were contributed by Tom Roach of Portland, who booted a field goal and all six PAT’s. The victory boosted Eugene’s record to 7-2 with one Pacific Football League game remaining this season — that's with the Thunderbirds in Portland, Sun day. Tacoma didn’t prove to be the easy 47-0 win it was on October .8 This time, the Tyees allowed Eugene only a 21-14 lead at half time and rallied for two TD’s in the last quarter. The effort was in vain, however, as the Bombers tallied twice themselves in the fourth pe riod. Oldham started things off when he took the game’s opening kick off and ran 87 yards for the score, his first of three. After Tacoma knotted it at 7-7, the Bombers used the ensuing .kick-off to begin a drive from their own 38. In 12 plays, Eugene marched to the Tacoma nine, after which Oldham shot up the middle for the score. About a minute later, lineback er Jack Clark intercepted a Tyee pass on the visitors’ 35 to set up another Eugene score— a five - yard aerial from Roger Daniels to Palm. Tacoma took advantage of a 77 vard punt return plus three rush ing plays to make it 21-14 at half time. Roach’s field goal midway in the third quarter opened second half scoring. The Bombers stretched their lead to 31-14 when Oldham made a 26-yard sprint around left end, culminating a 74-yard drive. The Tyees tallied twice in the opening five minutes of the final quarter to come back into conten tion. However, Eugene retaliated with two of its own via aerials by Doug Post. The first was a five-yarder to Palm, giving the split end a to tal of eight touchdowns this sea son, followed by a 34-yard pass play to Burleson. Hockey Team Wins Karen Meats led the Oregon women’s field hockey team to a 3-1 victory over Marylhurst Sat urday on Gerlinger Field. Miss Meats scored two goals and team mate Kathy Elliot tallied the oth er in the Oregon win. Next competition for the team will be a three day tournament at Ellensburg, Washington, Novem ber 18-20. The Oregon women’s volleyball team placed third in the tourna ment held at SOC, also Saturday. • J"' I Mt*,: £ ls404.+d'&&lo u CffPfc/tfitfoire®. vuejf-* •Niril S&I fPl$ i &*p i .*5 life* IM Schedule Wrestling 137 4:18—Dunn (Delta Chi I vs. Wilson (Delta Upsllon I.
