The Methodists are admit tedly the under dogs but football history proves that the under dog sometimes struggles hard enough to finish on top. But however that may be, to at least two men within view of the field, it will be a laboratory exper iment rather than a game; Coach John J. McBwan of Oregon and Coat h "Spec" Keene of Willam ette. Seeks Coordination McEwan will do his experi menting In thA hone of find in? out what causes the lack of coordina tion between his line and back field, apparent in the Stanford game; and Keene's" attention will be focused principally on sifting the personnel or Ms squad ana finding out what players he can count on to carry the burden of Northwest conference games yet to be played. Toward thiej end, Keene expects td use about 30 men in this game, putting in his substitutes no mat ter how close the score may be. That doesn't mean, however, that the starting eleven will be strong and the later ones weak; Willam ette's squad has dwindled to about 35 players but all of them are promising material and by mixing veterans and freshmen, the lineup shouldn't be weakened materially. Stars Are Injured - The only men who won't get In to the game are Cranor and French, veteran halfbacks who are out with Injuries; and Mort Flock, vtteran linemen, for the same rea son. Some of the men who are ex pected to break into the game for a considerable portion of the time are Emmons, Gibson, McBee, Kuch, Cardinal, Carpenter, Phil pott, Pope and Holt. Oregon is also planning to use a number of substitutes. Coach McEwan experimenting along this line as well as along that of tim ing plays.

By QUIXX HALIi "VXTITH Art Goebel in his now famous Yankee Doodle plane bursting speed records from Los Affgeles to Cincinnati by step, ping on the eas to the tnne of J36 miles an hour with the air mails cutting down by days the time of delivery from coast to coast with air taxis slashing the travel hours between this town and that. it is natural to expect that the footballers all over the country are going to do more with the aerial attack this season than ever before. It wasn't so many veam aen that the forward pass was an un heard of ground gainer but at that time the idea of coins: from coast to coast in less than a day was also being ridiculed. Times change. The aeroplanes were being perfected and the value of the forward pass was be ing realized. Last FaH a forward pass from Johnny lloben to Dwight Fish wick busted up the Princeton Yale game and was one of the most dramatic illustrations of th value of the aerial play. Glancing through the statistics covering the football season of 1927-28. it is found that in 251 cases touchdowns were the direct result of aerial nasses. That's a lot of touchdowns and thn fact that these markers can be direct. ly traced to the forward pass is sufficient reason whv coaches ev erywhere this year are training tnetr men in the business of hurl ing the pigskin. ThA nlav used to be considered as one which carried with It an excess amount ol unnecessary flair on inOTiv enRellM RAW no reason to gamble when they could atill gain ground with the old Ifna nlnnrtnc methods and hv re. sort to booting in tight places. However, there were a few coach on sahaHnllv in thA west, who who saw the tremendous value in the play and were willing- to tnlre fhanres When the nlnv was completed successfully the around gained made up for the gamble. The east was slow In adopting the heave. Rockne, of Notre Dame, used it successfully against the Army the first year the teams met. and the following season the eastern coaches decided to give it a trial. It has been increasing in popularity ever since. No one seems to know exactly Football Schedule - IatersectUaal Georgia at Yale Keith Carolina at Harvard. Navy at Ketre Dame.

Kcker Recovers Pass Ecker was responsible for put ting Salem in scoring position near the end of the quarter when a Wasco pass was partly blocked and he recovered it before it hit the ground. A pass, Backe to Mc Intosh. netted 11 yards, and Salem had the ball on the 15 yard line when the quarter ended.

(AP) With a record-smashing crowd f 120.000 to 125,000 viewing the spectacle, the navy and Notre Dame will battle on Soldier field tomorrow in one of the outstand ing gridiron struggles of the year. No matter If . Notre Dame wallops the Middles, r the Mid dies take a fall out of Knute Rockne'j warriors, . the combat will attract the greatest throng that ever witnessed a iootDaii game in America. Old Order Changed That is quite a reversal of what shouW happen in. these days of competitive sport. Nobody as a rule, wants to see a loser. Yet, tomorrow this tremendous throng will file into the massive stadium on Chicago's lake front to witness two losers in action Notre Dame overwhelmingly licked once and the navy twice. Their records may be scarred, but their glory and appeal remains undimmed. The large Veason for this situa tion is that the Notre Dame eleven is to football what Jack Dempsey was to the ring. Whenever a Notre Dame team, good or just fair, goes into action you get ac tion. Mr. Rockne sees to that. Game Anybody's For that reason, and that alone, a great portion of the crowd will be attracted to the stadium in an ticipation of action, the colorful spectacle and the desire to see No tre Dame fight to regain its foot ball prestige now somewhat dent ed by the smashing upset scored by Wisconsin. The game, to neutral observers, appears to be wide open and a toss up, with the winner in doubt. While not overconfident, "Navy Bill" Ingram and his middies were optimistic over tomorrow's outcome when they arrived today.

One ergmnizaihn handles all your claims a grow ing institution that will be even stronger at the dose of the longest damage suit. On the GENERAL full coverage policy you pay enJy erne premium lower than the combined premiums of several policies because underwriting, recording and other operat es pcnse on one obviously are less than on five, or even two!
