Well, the University of Wash ington Huskies, the only untied, uhconquered eleven in the west, is in this terrible predicament. Sports writers, coaches and fans might be excused for not being able to point to one or two men who rate, but when the team's publicity agent can't make up bis mind, then things are downright serious. "Let's see now who would we pick," said Roy Rosenthal, the Washington press agent when ask ed about all-American prospects. "We might start cheering for Paul 3ocko' Sulkosky, the big fullback, but then. he hasn't been spectacular. "Then there la Burl Bufkin. the halfback who beat California; El mer Logg, the sophomore quar terback who kicked Oregon "clear out of the Portland stadium; By ron Haines, the southpaw who has been throwing touchdown passes; Jack Hombeak, the sig nal barker who uses his noodle for something more than a headguard holder, and Art Ahonen and Jim my Cain, two great runners and pass throwers. Maybe Matt Muczynski. an other triple-threat fullback, Is our ail-American but he hasn't been able to play much because of an injury. "Chuck Mucha is our best guard; Captain Woody Ullin is a whale of a tackle, and our ends, the supposedly weak spot on the team, have left no room for com plaint. "I guess I'll wait awhile before I try to pick 'em. They're all too good. CALIFORNIA VISITS AIRLIE, Oct. 31.

All Hallows night was last night and we suppose the local youngsters had a tough time finding materials to Indulge la the old American sport of Octo ber 31. It was a tough night for the pranksters. Playing on a wed and muddy field, their soap all washed off the win dows before morning, so what good did it do. If they used wax it was okeh and they scored a touchdown on the weary house holder. Bat soon all the win dows should be cleaned off again and none will know that Hallowe'en was last night. Salem high doesn't play this week and is putting everything on the ball to be ready to take on Eugene in a post-Armistice day game November 12. Last year Eu gene lost to Salem only because, as Fritz Kramer was later heard to remark, the coach had had to "fire" a few of the stars a few days before the game. This year Eugene will be coming to Salem without a handicap, so they will have a chance to show what they can do. Naturally they couldn't have been expected to win last year without any hot-shots.

But Doc Near is the fellow Don Hendrle, softballer and golf bailer extraordinary, beat re cently at Tillamook when he shot a phenomenal 09. So if Don Hendrie ever moves to Eugene he's a cinch for the city champ's crown. NEWMARKET, England, Oct.
