Scdest OnKpn. Tuesday Very seldom does a school appoint a football coach simply "because there was no one else to take the f job," but that's precisely the reason why "Lefty" Wilder is coaching the Chejna wa Redskins this season. And very seldom, too, under such a 11 IILUUII I 1 IS : J "LEFTY" ' WILDER to coach was a well-administered 13-0 pasting; handed a strong Woodburn outfit last weekend. The week before the Indians downed Silverton equally as decisively. But Wilder is somewhat used to the remarkable he made one of "Believe It Or Not" Bob Ripley's efforts in 1930. after snagging fight consecutive passes-against Washington! high -you don't think that's remarkable, just try hauling down eight consecutive flying footballs with one hand and no nets! , 'Wilder started his coaching work at Chemawa in 1935, but was more or less demoted to assistant coach when the school adopted the policy of hiring ex -Willamette stars to mentor the Indians. Lefty served under Gerry Gastenaw in '49, Bunny Bennett in '40 and Doug Olds last fall. No stars were available this season, so Chemawa's paint and art instructor, (those are Lefty's other duties), is back in the driver's seat and has a crack ing good team. Only natural, too, is that team's yearning for a crack at Salem's Viks now that the Indians have something good for a change. We might add, after seeing both the Indians and i Viks play in respective leagues a number of times, Wilder's boys would give the Viks all the football argument they want.

Who would have thought that little Idaho would ever have anything to do with the Rose Bowl especially this, the season they substituted the Vandals and Montana stepping stones for the round robin?
