"Where do they get this stuff
about 'Willamette- dominating the
Northwest conference?'
That was the query recently
throws down by Marry Collins,
state softball chief and one of
Salem's top all-around sport
fans.
Willamette 0, Pacific 0; Whit
man 8, Willamette 7.
. The 1939 Northwest confer-.
eace football champion: - Pa
cific, with three wins, no de-:
feats and two ties
To mimic Mr. Collins, where
do they get this staff about Will
amette dominating the Northwest
conference? -:
. Last Tear Pacific beat the
Bearcats to grab a co-champion :
ship. This year the Badgers held
em scoreless and, with Whit
man sneaking a win over the
Cats frVanksgiving day, walKed
off with tho title, ; ,
Willamette this year won bat
three games in the conference.
One of those "wins, over the-heretofore
lowly looked upon College
of Idaho, was by a one-touch
down margin. Oatslde of the con
ference Willamette didn t .win a
ball gamei The 'Cats wound up
the season with three wins. -tour
losses ana two ties.
A summary of the season
shows Willamette "dominated" .
College of Paget Sound and
Linfield only. That's two-fifths
of the conference. Mr. Collins
was . timely with his question.
Neighborly Act Possible,
Chemawa's Indians can do 3H-
Terton a nice favor. Jerry Gas-
tineaa, should he want to be
neighborly (and we think he does)
can take, his warwhoop grid band
into West Linn next Wednesday,
whip Coach Brown's club, ' and
thereby hand the Willamette Val
ley loop championship to Silver
ton. ;'
The Chemawa-Wcst Linn fra
cas finishes up the loop. Both
Silverton and West Una are
undefeated, both have twice
been tied. SllTerton has fire
wins. West Linn has four; A
West Linn victory over . Che
mawa means a co-champlonship
between the Silver Foxes and
.West Ilnnmen. A Chemawa vic
tory automatically gives Silver
ton the title.
Regardless of the outcome of
the Chemawa-West Linn tilt, Sll
verton has nothing less than a
co-championship. Congratulations
to both the team and Coach Roy
Goates are in order. Goates, : in
his first season with the Foxes,
'did a remarkable job. Not a de
feat for his clob in the Willam
. ette Talley league, the oldest and
generally one of the most closely
played prep circuits in the state.
and only one bad whipping out
side of the league the 32-0 de
feat from Salem In the team's
first game. - '
Beavers Over-Bruins.
. . ,. - ..- - - ' -
Yes, we think Los Sttners
Beavers will beat the Bruins
of TJcla today and thereby grab
. . tbeaaselves a cinch on at least
' a tie for second place in the
1030 conference race. We think
they'll do It by two touchdowns,
tl to 7. f-- - -rr,
And yes. we think the Trojans
will whip Notre Dame today. We
think they'll do It by two touch
downs, or 13-0. Which Trojan
team will do It we aren't pre
" pared to state, but one of the
three will accomplish the inter
aectlonal victory that will add so
much prestige to Troy's Rosa
Bowl bid. .
As for the "big game' of tho

can have it. We don't want it.

Three Titles Will Be Up
But Chief Interest
At South Bend
NEW YORK. Nov. 24.-AV-
hThree major conference cham
pionships and the eastern "Ivy
league" title come up for settle
ment tomorrow as college football
reaches Its next-to-last major Sat
urday. But chief interest will be
attached to the gridiron festivi
ties at South Bend. Ind.. where no
championship of any sort will be
at stake. -
There Rose Bowl-minded Ten
nessee's scoats will be in the Jam-
packed stands as unbeaten, once
tied Southern California deploys
against Notre Dame. It promises
to be a battle of potent back-
fields, with manpower likely to
decide the issue and both teams
amply equipped in that respect
Two conference races will come
to a close in the middle west. Ohio
State, which has gained the mo
mentum of a streamlined steam
roller, will stack up against Mich
igan and can be tied for big ten
honors only If upset by the Wol
verines while Iowa is dumping
Northwestern. Missouri can sew
up big six honors by beating un
derdog Kansas.
A tie seems the likely finish in
the southern conference, where
Duke and Clemson, all-winning in
league competition, will be fa
vored to win. their final games
from North Carolina State and
Furman, respectively. Cornell,
third in ' national ranking this
week, will seek Its second straight
Ivy league championship and first
all-winning season since 19 2S in
Its annual battle with Penn; Har
vard and Tale will meet in their
traditional clash, and on the Pa
cific coast UCLA seeking to keep
up with Southern California in
the race for the Rose Bowl, is
likely to strike a tartar in Ore
gon State.

In Conference
LOS ANGELES. Nov. 24pV-
A determined band of football
players from Oregon State col-,
lege worked out In Memorial coll-.
seam today, preparing for an 1m
portent clash with the University
of California at Los Angeles In a
Pacific Coast conference game to
morrow.
Victory for the once-defeated
Beavers would pat them ahead ot
the once-tied Vclans in the con
ference scramble for Rose Bowl
honors, and a crowd ot 10.000
was predicted for tho battle,
starting at 2: IB PST.
Coach Loa Stlner's men of
orange have come a long wsy
la the conference campaign de
spite a none-too-rosy outlook. Tri-
umph.s over every opponent except
Soutnern Cat have put the Ore
gon lads in a runner-up spot at
the moment and a conference Ions
by either USC or UCLA would
shove them Into the top spot. The
Beavers came south prepared to
attend to this detail ss far as the
Uclans are concerned.
Beavers Fear Kenny
Most feared of the Bruins is
Halfback Kenny Washington, an
outstanding conference candidate
for all-America honors, while a
second threat rests In the play
of Jackie Robinson, the Bruins'
right half, who Is doe to start the
game.
The Bruits boast a slight
weight advantage In the 11ns. and
a larger one in the backtleld, but
Stlner has moulded a tough for
ward wall himself and hopes to
smother any Bruin passing attack
if they take to the air.
