Brawl Villain
Gets Top Spot
Hoosier Meanie's Unearned
Victory Over Trout Is
Recalled by Fans
After winning over Dick Trout
in one of the most wild - eycl
brawls ever to delight the grap
ple fans here, Jack Lipscomb, the
Hoosier Hotshot, will try his luck
with Salem's husky Japanese boy,
Don Sugai, In the main event t
the American Legion shew at the
armory tonight.
Lipscomb gained a one fall win
over Trout, using all his custom
ary chicanery. . Trout had LUv
comb's shoulders pressed to- the
canvas but the referee was listen
ing to the sweet songs of bird's
at the time and when be regain
ed consciousness found Lipscomb
ou 'lop of the pile.
Aware of most of the tricks
of the . unscrupulous grapplers
from many past combats with
tangiers of that irk, Sugai should
be a tough opponents for the
sneering, snarling, Lipseomb. The
two have met before and neither
cherishes a great love for the
other. " ' , .
Secret Back Again
Lipscomb employs about every
trick known to matdom in his ef
forts to subdue his opponents
while Sugai. capable- of mixing
in a few tricks of his own. usual
ly sticks closely to f he football
tactics of sonnenbergs and fly
ing drop-kicks.
Dickie Trout, the popular San

Trout is confident that he can

Northwestern to
Battle Minnesota
Waldorf Says His Eleven
Has a Chance; Recalls
Close 1935 Outcome
CHICAGO. Oct. 26.-(P)-As sol
emnly as a man testifying under
oath, Lynn .Waldorf gave his
Northwestern eleven a chance to
day of doing the impossible of
npsetting mighty Minnesota Sat
urday. The broad-shouldered, deep
voiced Wildcat coach, who has
watched with something ap
proaching amazement the .devel
opment of his "kids' this sea
son, hastened to agree with the
rest of the football world that
Minnesota merits ranking as
"tops." He refused, however, to
concede that Bernie Bierman has
a super-team. i ,
"Our scouts say that Minnesota
is even greater than last year,"
he said. "Against Nebraska,
Michigan and Purdue, their de
fense hasn't b e en dented. Of
course Minnesota is, and should
be, a big favorite against us."
Recalls 21-13 Tussle
"But we are not- regarding
Minnesota as a super-team," he
said seriously. "We gained a lot
of ground against them last year
and gave quite a. battle before
losing by a touchdown, (21 to
13). We are stronger this year.
Whether .we are good enough is
something for Saturday to de
cide. "I believe our 'kids' will come'
close to playing all the football
they have in them. They are not
overawed. In fact, they are anxi
ous to be stacked up against the
yardstick by which all teams are
measured in these days.
"I in mighty .certain of one
point," he finished with a deep
chuckle. "I haven't been quite
sure just how much of a ball
club we have. Well, Minnesota
will see to it that I find out."

WHAT football team has the
best backfield this year?
Answer that one correctly
and you can take off that dunce cap
and move to the head of the class.
There are a lot of sides to this
argument, and they can't; all be
right. Suppose we say Washing
ton, very tentatively.
Elmer Logg. By Haines, Sugar
Cain, Ed Nowogroski and Co. are as
brilliant I a collection of backfield
talent as you'll run across in a I
ay iaul mause-p;
We have noted with interest
the several forays made by the
Oregonlan's sports pundit. Lair
Gregory,! in behalf of the North
west ' conference aa leairue
which plays interesting' foot
ball. Gregory several t lines this
year luts stated that the North
west conference games he has
seen have been far more inter
esting to watch than. the con
servative football played by the
Coast conference.
We agree heartily with Greg in
that. Fort several Saturdays past
we have watched Coast conference
football, wishing all the time we'd
saved our gasoline. Last Saturday
it watt the Oregon-Washington
State game. We'd have been just
as happy, listening to the radio
for It was a remarkably dull game
to watch. There was good blockihg
and good tackling which was good
to see but not particularly inter
esting. Both teams were being
too safe, i That, after the many
pleas f orj support of Coast con
ference football In the northwest,
is what the teams cannot afford
to be if they wish to draw, John

everything with the inflated pork
hide but eat it, and I wouldn't even
be sure about that.
Well, we no sooner mention
Washington than the gentleman
from Kentucky, suh, takes the floor
and forces us to hear of the exploits
of Man o' War Johnson, Twenty
Grand Davis, Elmore Simpson, Roy
Sands and few more triple-threat
backfield stars thrown in for good
measure. All of these birds are do
ing their stuff for Old Kaintuck.
Nebraska is heard from, where
Al Hoptowit, big Indian boy
who used to play for Chemawa
not so many years ago, played
a slap-bang game at guard for
the Cougars. He got through
into the Oregon backfield at lot
of times when the Palefaces
weren't looking for a visit from
the Indians.
While thinking of Oregon, no
table this year for.the lack of ade
quate passers, we would like to
observe that in a few years there
should be plenty of good passers
on the market for the college
scouts. High schools are turning
more to a wide-open game, espe
cially since the new rules allow
passes from the line of scrim
mage. There' are a whole flock of
good passers now heav;ng them
high and handsome in ; Oregon
high schools. Notable are Reiman
of The Dalles, Parsons and Mabee
of McMinnville, Woodman of
Dallas, Daggett of West Linn and
there are lots of others. Carl
Chapman of Salem high will prob
ably develop Into an excellent
passer also. -
Harold Hank is really wor
ried about the pasting of The
Dalles. With ; Reiman ; doing

Gerald Smith, Chemawa's ace
halfback, did against Lebanon,
complete a forward pass to him

the ball through the line on the

enough to make the ball pop out
of his arms and sail up and for

kept going, caught the ball as it
came down five yards farther
ahead and ran 20 mora yards be
fore he was finally downed.

Saturday Night; One

Thankful for an extra day in

day Coach Harold Hauk will give
the Vikings their first scrimmage
since the McMinnville circus to
day. While the 26 to 18 victory over
McMinnville showed Hank that the
Vikings are finally playing foot
ball it also showed a great. need
for a stronger defense. So de
fense against both attacks by land
and air will be the major Item in
this week's Viking budget. Hauk
will stress pass defense as the
Vikings looked particularly help
less against McMlnnville's accur

Officers May Not
Coach, Reiterated
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 ,-)-
An apparent loop-hole in the war
department's order banning army
officers from coaching football at
civilian colleges was found to
day, but was quickly closed by
Gen. Malin Craig, chief of staff.
It developed that decision on
outside activities, such as sports
tutoring, by army officers had
been left up to the commanding
generals of the various corps
areas.
Under this arrangement, offi
cials said Maj. Lawrence "Biff"
Jones at the University of Okla
homa and Maj. Ralph Sasse at
Mississippi State might make new
football coaching agreements at
the expiration of their present
contracts if approval was obtain
ed from their commanding gen
eral. But General Craig explained
the delegating of this decision
to the commanding general was
merely routine. He said corps
commanders had complete charge
of the officers in their territories
but that the spirit of the war de
partment order of last January 1,
forbidding- army officers to take
coaching positions, still held
good.
Salem and Canby
Harriers Compete
Coach Vernon Gilmore will take

Linfield.
"They'Te got the Bweetest back
field in the conference," Keene
said of the Loggers who, though
tied by Linfield, are yet to be
defeated in conference play. Ber
nard Remson, dark-skinned fresh
man fullback sensation from Oak
land; Alex Schwets, brilliant
halfback who formerly cavorted
for West Seattle high school, and
Miller, pass-heaving quarterback,
are the most feared Logger back
field threats. Besides being dan
gerous on land all three are good
pass-heavers. '
Special attention will be given
to the line this week by the
Bearcat mentor after the Willam
ette forwards were, outcharged'
and outplayed last week by Lin
field's lighter line. Willamette's
centers and guards, through
whom Linfield made much of its
line yardage, will be in for a
hard week.
Keene said that a good deal of
time would be spent on pass de
fense "and kicking, wfth an ef
fort being made to get kicks off
quicker.
Work on the Willamette of

against Linfield. will take up a

"I guess I'll have to innocuiate
these fellows, with a spiked boot,"

many times for our own good
