Hibbs Is Selected Jesse Hibbs, who was chosen as an All-American tackle pretty generally by experts following the finish of the season last year, will be back with his line plunging tactics to bolster the Southern California line. Hibbs succeeds the great Morley Drury as captain and one of the big problems con fronting Coach Howard Jones will undoubtedly' hinge on developing a player to take the place 'of the great Drury not an easy task in the life of any coach. While Drury, one of the most fiery and elusive quarterbacks of the past years, will be missed at Southern California, the presence of an experienced lineman like Hibbs on the squad will have its good influence. Hibbs is a capa ble tackle. In addition, Jones has veterans back for the ends, cen ter and one guard position. With experienced timber in these spots. he should build a line which will help open up the paths for his backfield. The annual struggle on the Pa cific coast is always interesting and is closely followed by football fans throughout the country. This wide interest is increased lately through the scheduling of inter sectional games between the coast elevens and teams representing the middle west and east. FOUL IN ID fill CHICAGO, Oct. 17. (AP) Otto VonPorat, hard -hitting Nor wegian heavyweight, won on a foul in the third round of his ten round bout with "Chuck" Wig gins of Indianapolis tonight. Wig gins was on the verge of a knock out when he fouled Von Porat three times with hooks to the sroln. and the fight was stopped by Eddie Purdy. Von Porat was far In the lead when he was fouled. In the third round, he nailed Wiggins with a rocking left hook to the jaw fol lowing up with two sharp rights to the head. Wiggins reeled about and then shot in his first foul blow.- Referee Purdy warned him. After more terrific punish ment from the- Norwegian, he struck low twice and Purdy awarded the fight to Von Porat.

This year four such struggles are on the books. Washington will mix with Chicago at Chicago on November 23; Stanford plays the Army in New York on Decern ber 1; Oregon State will try con clusions with New York universi ty on November 29, and Notre Dame will hook up with Southern California at Los Angeles on De cember 1. While all of these games are enthusiastically anti cipated. the last named seems to hold the inside track on creating wide-spread interest. Last year this Notre Dame- Southern California clash brought in some 113,000 paid customers. The battle was waged in Chicago on Soldier Field and was played before the largest crowd that ever witnessed a gridiron match. The game was won by Notre Dame. 7 to 6. This year's game prob ably will not attract so large a crowd, but the interest will be just as intense. The Army-Stan ford game at New York will prove another big gate attraction and should play to capacity. Hibbs and his team face a tough schedule and not the least among the games scheduled is the one booked for Saturday which will bring the Trojans against "Nibbs" Price's California "Col den Bears" at Berkeley. This i one of the classics of the Pacific coast season every year. The Trojans took the Bears last year to the tune of 13 to 0. This game will furnish an early line on the ability of two of the outstanding elevens in the Pacific coast conference. A victory will give either team an edge in fu ture dopings. E Another chapter in the career of George Wirth. local automobile driver, was written Wednesday when he was fined $100 and his driver's license was suspended for one year when his case came up In justice court. Wirth has been the worry of traffic officers for a long time, the officers declare. The immediate cause of his sen tence was sn accident that - oc. curred north of Salem last month. Wirth. driving in irotn a side road, crashed into another car and injured a woman. He has had several previous experiences ot a similar nature, spending time la jail on one occasion. The most famous episode in his career so far was the time when he crashed into another car on State street near the state prison, toppled the car over on its -side, and drove blissfully on his way, fAt that time his license was re- revoked, but he went to the secre tary of state's office and obtained another. Justice of the Peace Small wrote to Secretary of State Hoss Wednesday and; told him of the situation." asking "him to stop" is suing driver's licenses to Wirth.
