P rospects for a victorious football
season for the U niversity are at the
present tim e n eith er brilliant nor d is­
couraging.

and failure to re tu rn to college, includ­
ing M oores, K uykendall, Z acharias,
A rnspiger, T ay lo r, Scott, C olem an and
G rout, yet it is th o u g h t th at an average
eleven can be built up around the re­
m aining sta rs out of the m aterial in
the scrub and freshm an team s.
The squad is the largest in the his­
to ry of the U n iv ersity , n u m b erin g
about fifthy candidates. A lso indica­
tions are that the new system of coach­
es this y ear is ahead of any schem e of
this kind so far tried in the annals of
< )regon football.
The m em bers of last y e a r’s team
who have retu rn ed to college include
C aptain M oullen, 09; M cIntyre, ’09;
C lark, 10; Pinkham , 10, and V oight,
’10.
Coach F orbes has not put the men
through any scrim m age work, but will
begin that feature the first of this week.
A m ong the new men who are sh ow ing
up well are Main and Michel from Lick
High School, San F ran cisco ; and Lat-
o u rette. Gilles, ex- 10, w ho played on
the varsity year before last, has re tu rn ­
ed to college and will m ake a valuable
addition to the squad.
A ssistant Coach A rnspiger, ’09, has
charge of the freshm an squad which is
m ade up of at least th irty players. M an­
ager M cEw en has had Kincaid Field
covered with saw dust so that reg u lar
practice can be indulged in w ithout too
much risk of in ju ry to plavers.
