Jim. Nicholson, finest red and black; triple threater for years, floored with offers from coaehes all over the United .States, has cast his lot with Prink Callison's Oregon. Webfeet. In his collegiate debut this September he is sched uled to scintillate under "Honest" John Warren, new head man for the Oregon freshman squad. Sport critics have repeatedly predicted as brilliant a career for the cavort ing 175-pound touchdown streak as that enjoyed by another Ore gon high school whiz, Bobby Gray son at Stanford. Huntington, his prep school boss, expects him to carve his name in football's hall of All-American fame before he hangs up his uniform in 1939. Jim, broad shouldered with piston-like legs, turned in most of the touchdowns scored by Salem during his three seasons of half backing, many of them on long broken field runs. His punts, well placed, averaged better than those of many a university kicker, fre quently -getting the ball awa for 55 and 60 yards. He was better than an average passer and a streak on the receiving end of aerial pegs. He hauled several of Sam Sherrill's bullet tosses out of the air for scores last fall. In ad dition to other assets, Nicholson place-kicks with precision. The remaining youngsters who wound up their careers at the cherry city high school last June, Drager, Grabenhorst and Coons, are all in Seattle preparing to bolster "Irish" Jimmy Phelan's Washington Huskies. All are real comers, according to Huntington, and should battle their way to gridiron fame on the northern campus. This fall they will work under "Pest" Welsh, ex-Purdue and present Washington freshman chief. Doug Drager, 200 pound tackle, once state and northwest ama teur wrestling champion, is a rug ged, resourceful lineman, and should be a headliner at Seattle. Coburn Grabenhorst, 190-pound tackle, has every qualification for stardom. A youthful firebrand still growing despite his 6 feet 3 inches, he is versatile and a rapid fire thinker in the heat of foot ball warfare. Huntington predicts that Coburn, after two years of ex perience and seasoning, will de velop into one of Phelan's most valuable standbys on the purple and gold forward wall.

A.bout'25 talented junior aqua tic aces from the municipal pools presented a colorful water carni val in the Leslie open air tank last night under the direction of Esther Arnold and Anoka Coates before a fine turnout of specta tors. The youngsters, handling them selves in Ihe water with deft ease, were cleverly costumed as they paddled through a number of pic turesque and occasionally humor ous acta. The show, following a circus and carnival motif, opened with a parade of all the animal characters swimming the length or the water course which was lighted on either side by colored lanterns and variously shaded electric lights. A moment later a green sea monster slipped from the bath house to stalk the waters, emitting ominous noises while threatening onlookers. It had a sinister ap pearance as several of the young water proteges maneuvered it opinion of Huntington unparallel ed as a high school end. He pos sesses the keen knack of diagnos ing plays when on the defensive and is a furious blocker and fine pass receiver on the offensive. A tearless fighter, he handles 220- pound tackles as though he pack ed that much heft on his own pow erful frame. Barring injuries he is sure to be a Husky luminary of the first water. Engel, Oregon sophomore, 200, an end, received a knee injury last fall but is now raring to go places with the Webfeet. Engel, Coach Huntington stated, is me chanically a great prospect, fine ball handler, receiver, tackier and blocker. Mel is determined to eafn a regular berth on Callison's start ing lineup. Moody, 210, easily the stand out on the O.S.C. Rook line a sea son ago, is being groomed to open holes for Lon Stiner's backfield aces at tackle. Glen, in splendid condition after a summer of high way work, is capable of playing 60 minutes of bang-up football without replacement Stiner's favorite type. "Tots" Yada. 220-pound Japan ese guard, a puggy warrior re markably fast for his low slung weight, will start his second sea son nnder "Spec" Keene and his up-and-coming Willamette Bear cats. "Ike" Wintermute, 175. 6' Vf. a fine blocker, will join the O.S.C. Beaver backfield aspirants. Win termute is expected to be a top night basketball star on the Cor vallis campus next spring. Win Needham to Enter Stanford Winfield Needham. Salem high and Multnomah club swimming star who holds many northwest senior records and two national junior swimming championships. will leave for Stanford university Sunday, September 15, to enter the freshman class. Needham, an Olympic possibility, is expected to star on Stanford aquatic teams He is motoring south with his brother Bob.
