tatei of Pop Warner to the letter.
Only u Loren Grannis,' Bearcat
captain, was on the minor injury
- - list with a sore leg. Oravec and
Weisgerber are In fine fettle while
the rest of the team Is all pepped
up with the thought of the fire
day 'southern trip.

.... send-off from the Southern Paci-
r.V..:-- fie station. The team will travel
all day today and all night, arriv
- ' . ing - in . San Francisco . Saturday
morning. After taking in the Stan
: ford-Washington game at Palo
Alto, the team will proceed to San
Jose, arriving there about 6
o'clock. The squad will hare one
day in which to become accustom
ed to playing on turf. The grass
field is expected to speed up the
already fast footwork of the Bear
, - cat backfield.
"Spec" Keene is expected to
. make good his constant threat of
the last three games and hare his
team open up against the strong
San Jose State team. The Bear
cats hare numerous plays on tap
' which they hare never yet this

going proves tough against the
Spartans the Bearcats will prob
ably throw everything in the book
at the San Jose team. .

When Salem high received a
slUe-swlpe' from the powers that
be and; lost a good section of Its
Ube just before its first game,
. the dope was that the Red and
Black team would struggle
through a tongh schedule and
be I n c k y if it woa half its
games. But op pop some very -valuable
lads right oat of Jun
ior high or from the ranks of
the common-fodder and Salem
tarts in by holding the big
Everett team scoreless,
v. O
Then the dope is that the boys
were just Inspired and that Al
bany would plaster Salem's ears
down. Result: Salem 19, Albany
6. Astoria was next on the Viking
schedule. The Finns had a strong
team. In fact, the Finns always
hare strong team. For .sure, Sa
lem would meet. Its" Waterloo.
Nicholson ploughed through fog
and Coons and the Salem line did
everything else to make the Fish
ermen uncomfortable, 20 to 6.
Monday Kugene comes wltn
what is heralded as one of its
strongest teams in history. Kn
gene, undefeated, is gunning
for the bid to play in the Mult
nomah stadium against the win
ner of the Portland loop for the
'State championship' (very my
thical). If Salem beats Eugene
it pats the Purple and White
ont of the running for the big
game and makes Salem defi
nitely a contender for unde
feated honors. The odds are
about even.
Salem has a 50-50 chance to
finish the season undefeated. Af
ter Eugene come games with Mc
Minnville, The Dalles and Corval
lis. All are strong teams, but they
are' not invincible armadas. The
Dalles is perhaps the toughest of
the lot. Corvallls also will put up
a tough fight. If Salem comes
Frantz, Rhoda; halfbacks, Oravec,
Mills, Cannady, Brandon; full
backs, Weisgerber, Stone. Besides
the players Coach R. S. "Spec"
Keene, Assistant Coach Howard
Maple, Lestle Sparks, general
manager; Bob Banning, manager,
and Eddie Salstrom, mascot, will
make the trip.
The team will start on its re
turn trip to Salem immediately
after the game Monday tnd will
arrive here late Tuesday.

through these three undefeated It
will have at least a good claim to
state honors.
Bat Salem high win proOab
, ly not play m the Multnomah
stadium this year. Even if Sa
lem was the only undefeated
team in the state, Salem, as tt
did not have last year, has
game scheduled for Thanksgtv.
ing day with Corvallls. 80 far
as the state championship (ex
tra mythical) Is concerned 8a
lem high is giving It the go-by.
Right now It looks like a race
between M e d f o r d and Eugene,
with Medford the heavy favorite.
Eugene is going to have no easy
time getting over Salem and then,
with only three days In between,
meets Roseburg the following
Friday. Its a tough pace fpr a
high school team. Also. Eugene
has yet to play its home town
rival. University high.
One small lad who is getting
the treat of his very short life
this weekend is Eddie Salstrom,
mascot of the Bearcats. Eddie
is going to San Jose with the
. team. He assured "Spec" Keene
that Willamette would be un
able to do a" thing without him,
so Eddie gees along. Seven- :
year-old Eddie Salstrom la the
second Salstrom to be a Bear- -cat
mascot. His brother, Phil,
now a Salem high backfield
flash, also got his first taste of
football in the Bearcat camp.
Phil Salstrom got his big trip
when he went to WtHtman, In
1929, with that year's cham
pionship team, but Eddie beats
him by going to San Jose. Ed
die says his brother was mas
cot of a championship team and
so is he. .

-Beware, University -of- Oregon,
"Red" Franklin Is back In stride.
The freckled flash who led the
Beaver offense last year, has re
covered from Injuries and will
captain the Oregon state team
against University of Oregon in
their annual game ; Saturday.
During Franklin's long absence
from the squad this season capa
ble substitutes have - developed,
but the past week he has Improved-so
rapidly that he won back
his old berth. -
However, some of last year's
"iron Immortals" who broke uni
versity of Southern California's
sensational winning streak, have
been crowded out by fast-devel
oping sophomores and other re
serve.
One of the Iron men, .Tom
sheck, a guard, will be ont on In
juries and in his place fitrack will
start. Devine and Woody Joslin
are other iron men not scheduled
to start the game. Hal Pran-
gle, one of the iron men
last season and by and large
the Iron man this year, win start
the game at quarterback, using
his crunching hulk to block the
path for his teammate Franklin.
The two are the only Oregon
State players who ever have start
ed a football game against the
Webfoots.
The final heavy practice prior
to the Saturday game was held
tonight. Spirits were low at the
first 'of the week with a number
of players on the injured list. If
the Injuries still prevail, the
players won't admit it, but grin
viciously through their bandages
Coach Lon Stlner, whose "whis

Of League; Heydler Named
To New Job, Board Leader
By EDWARD J. NEIL"
NEW ; YORK, Not. 8-ttV-A
young newspaperman - from the
farm lands of Indiana, Ford
Christopher Frick, was named, to
day the ninth president Of : the
National league, successor to John
Heydler, and the .most youthful
man ever to attain the post ;
In unanimity, the owners of the
eight clubs in baseball's senior
circuit elevated the S 9-year old
head of the league's service bu
real to the presidency, honored
Heydler by creation of a new of
fice for him for life as ."chairman
of the board," and appointed Har
vey Traband secretary and treas
urer. It took the magnates just 1
hours of peaceful session to agree
unanimously with forecasters who
predicted such a slate Immediate
ly after Heydler announced unex
pectedly last Friday that ill health
was forcing him to relinquish the
presidency after 17 years. At
Flick's request bis term was set
at one year.
The new president, who will be
40 In December, is the second
youngest major league head In the
baseball history. Only Ban John
son, who organised . and became
president o'f the American league
in 1901, was. younger at the time
he took office, 16.
Born on a farm In Indiana,
several miles from Kendallville,
Frick was graduated In 1915 from
De Panw university, where his
The bristling Beavers hope
their first conference win of the
season will be against University
of Oregon.
Franklin has been able to prac
tice strenuously all week and it
has been a great aid in the per
fection of a strong defense. His
passing arm and eye have become
more co-ordinated again, and the
Beavers hope to gain on punt
exchanges with Franklin doing
the kicking and playing safety to
return Oregon kicks.
To alternate with Franklin
Coach Lon Stlner has Willard
Jarvis, who distinguished himself
with bis ball carrying against
Washington, and Jim Danerl, who
has. undergone a baptism of fire
as a first year man this season.
Other backfield reserves expect
ed to see action are Heikenen and
Valley at fullback.

Eugene, fearing to stttfer As

Nicholson-caused debacle, will be
