Gordon Cochrane, great Ath

known as Mike rather than the
more familiar Mickey, stands out
head and shoulders when a com'

bases. On top of these mechan
ical assets he has that elusive but
essentially valuable adjunct, col

A National and American

best catcher in the game." said
tne American leaguer, "and before

the National league mentor, "and

DAVE MASON IN
UNIFORM AGAIN
Oregon Officials State Cap
tain May Not be Able
To Play Cards
EUGENE. Ore.. Oct. 1. (AP)
Dave Mason, captain of the
University of Oregon football
team, was out In uniform today
for the first time since he sprain
ed his ankle at the start of prac
tlce but Trainer Bill Hayward ex
pressed doubt whether the Web-
foot pilot would be able to play
against btanford Saturday. Mason
wore a special boot, reaching al
most to the knee to protect the
Injured ankle today.
Misfortune has followed Mason
since his first appearance on the
Oregon varsity in 1927. iMet year
he broke his leg shortly after the
Stanford game at Eugene and was
out for the remainder of the sea
son. His showing against the Card
inals was such, however, that his
teammates elected him captain at
the end of the season.
The injury this year was be
lieved to have been aggravated by
last year's.
The Webfeet today began to
prepare a defense- for the subtle
plays for which Stanford Is fa
mous. Billy Relnhart, backfleld
coach, scouted the Stanford-Olym
pic club game last Saturday and
as returned to Eugene with
enough Information for the locals
to get a smattering knowledge of
the Stanford attack.
Biff Jones was reminded that Ca
gle was a fair to middling punter
at Southwestern Louisiana. "Yes.
Cagle can kick," said the Big Biff,
Dut don t you think he does
enough now?" There did not
seem to be a ready answer to that
question.
MacDonald Smith, the lean Scot
whose golf swing is as smooth as
lyric poem, does not care where
the greens keepers place the cups
wnen he is playing in tourna
ments. "Go for the center of the
green, regardless of the pin," says
the great shot maker, "and you
won't be far wrong. You should
get down in two putts from there
and sometimes one will do. And
you never will be in trouble if you
are near the middle of the green."
