Upset Feared
ByWILfech
History Cited; Willamette
Strong Favorite, Maybe
Is Too Nonchalant
Willamette's Bearcats, the
football team that has -cone
through its last 17 conference
games without defeat and has not
been scored upon in its last seven,
will meet the Pacife university
Badgers on Sweetland field to
night at 8: IS o'clock in a game
that mar end with the Bearcats
champions for the third year. -
Although Willamette still has a
game with Whitman on the slate
victory orer the Badgers tonight
would clinch the Northwest con
ference title for the Bearcats
Whitman, which , haa Host one
game and been tied in another has
no chance at the title unless Wil
lamette loses tonight. ;
- Pacific should not be much for
the Bearcats to fear since the
Forest Grove team, coached this
year by Roger Folgate. j former
assistant coach at Whitman, has
won. only from Albany. , a team
that Willamette beat 4 to 0.
Recall Past Upset
That, however, is just the rea
son. Coach "Spec" - Keene is
wary of tonight's" game.; The sit
us ton is too similar to & time
before when a lowly Pacific club
knocked -the Bearcats out of
championship in a game they
weren't given a ghost of a show
to win. " . .-j.- - j
In an effort to get the teams'
morale up w a nign point neae
has let practice sessions this -week
be skylark lor affairs, in which
with the exception of hard drill in
blocking and tackling and Inten
sified signal drills, work was very
light.. v.- v.'--:... v,.

Pacific's attack, directed by
Veteran Bignl-caller, Olean, will
will probably be largely through
the air, a medium that has proven
the Badgers most effective scor
ia? route ths eason. j
Air Attack Dangerous
WithEd Eilerton. big left half,
throwing and two sure-fire ends,
Silkstrom and Gieske, catching.
the Bargers gave both Puget
Sound, and Whitman plenty to
worry about in the air, Gieske
and Silkstrom also cooperate on a
freak end around play in which
Gieaeke. does the passing.
Two stellar tackles, l Barstai
sad Amend, bolster the Pacific
line. Barstad as selected last
rear as an all-conference tackle.
"Dynamo Dick" Weisgerber
and Billy Beard, Willamette's
slippery left half will; bear the
brunt of the Bearcat offensive.
Welgerber's plunging cracks at
the line have netted big yardage
gains n every game this year while
Beard, who aUo does the passing
and kicking, has been a first year

Basketball has been stirring
under the covers for some time
now anjL with football ready to
go to bed, is already coming to
life and taking a few setting up
exercises. Hoop workouts have
started In nearly all the colleges
f the northwest conference.
Whitman was champ last year
la the loop and among those
eyeing the crown worn by the
Missionaries is Willamette,
which last year finished some
where along in the second div
ision. The Missionaries will hare only
one regular left from last year's
championship quint, long-legged
Eddie Geist. center from Portland.
Don Woodward, letterman reserve
last year. Is the only other veteran
on the squad which Coach "Nig"
Borleske is already drilling three
time a week. Leave it to Borleske,
however, to come forth with
shining bunch of new material.
This is just an aside but Stan
Borleske, brother of "Nig's"
Is an assistant coach at Fresno
State college whose football
team played to s tie with Wil
lamette down in California.
Don Faber Is another who rs
glad to get ready for basketball.
His Albany gridders have had
(heir usual season In the cellar
and he's glad to get to a sport
where weight and numbers don't
have so much bearing. Faber, as
Coach at Ashland high, had great
success with " basketball, winning
the southern Oregon champion
?hip three years in a row. Don has
a squad of 32 working out at
present. His varsity Is likely to be

for material for it has all its
promising freshment of last

able Charley Veisteeg.. The
ophomorea Include Jerry Oaat
raeao, the rangy center i from
Missouri, Walt Weaver, John
Kelly, Bill Anton, ths Bees;
Greek from Portland, and a
bunch of others from last year's
Bearkittens. George Erickson,
captain last year, will assist
Spec" Keene in the coaching
this season.
There seems to be s difference
of opinion out Santlam way over
the championship In the high
school touch football league that
haa flourished there for the last
three seasons. The championship I
hinged on the last game between
Mill City and Turner and the out-
come of rthat gams hinged on
touchdown or was it a touch
down? which Mill City did or did
not score after, the final, whistle.
Turner won 7 to , or Mill City
won 12 to 7. ,
' The Statesman ' has received
news items from Hill City and
from Turner, each claiming ths
victory and .the championship.
I We presume that the officials of
the game made a decision one
way or the other and there
shouldn't be any room for con
troversy. For the enlightenment
ot any fans who know the par
ticulars but may be haxy on the
. rules it may be explained that
if the play In question was start
ed before the whistle was blown,
the touchdown should count.
Regardless of this, however.
whatever the referee aeciaea
wll have to stand.
"Tooty" Becken, the Willamette
guard you can always pick out be
cause he wears s black helmet
which is always right in where the
going is thickest, is being groomed
for a scoring role. Since Darren
Newhouse, the ten ton tackle, and
Bill Waldron, shrill-voiced center.
have scored, touchdown! In ; Cal
if ornta "Tooty" believes Its his
turn next. In practices this week
he has been scoring half the
touchdowns, yelling "lateral, lat
eral" everytime anybody breaks j
away Into the clear. j

The Midgets, outpowered and
outweighed by the heavy Bees,
never threatened. v
The Bees made two long drives
in the first half good for a 14

advantage from the start. A 15
yard pass from : Maynard to
Doer tier brought ; the first Bee
score and Doerfler plunged across
for the extra point. .
Maynard drove five yards
through right tackle to climax
another drive In the second pe
riod and this time Reeves dove
over for ths extra counter.
Qnamme Scores ;
Qnamme, shifted from the line
to the haekfield in the second
half, intercepted one of Wick-
erf s desperate last period passes
and ran 26 yards tor the final
touchdown. Qnamme went around
