'One Man Gang9 Roblin Is Boomed
For Spot on A ll-A merica Selections
UNIVERSITY OF OREGOff,
Eugene, Nov. 13 -(Special)-When
sports columnists get around to
picking their all-coast and all
America elevens! at the end of
this season, Tom Roblin, senior
back of the Oregon Webf oots,
will be in the running for not
one but three positions!
Reason: The ubiquitious Terri
ble Tommy has been Oregon's
..leading man in the backf ield . this
fall. Last Saturday in the. home
coming game against the 'then
league leading UCLA Bruins-, he
scored ( the- game-winning, touch
down in! the 14 to 7 victory, set
up the; other wit 5l-yard. Jaunt
deep into iBruin territory. Playing
this game as a fullback he net
gainedK15I yards on 31 tries for
an average of s 4.9 per play. He
also averaged 16 yards per attempt-on
punt returns.
This-in the second game Rob
lin has ever played as a fullback!
Started as Left Half
Tommy, a 185 -pound senior
from Pittsburg, Calif., started the
season as a .left halfback. In the
Ducks opener ' against the St.
Mary's Preflight eleven now one
of .the three undefeated and un
tied major elevens left in the
country Roblin : passed 16 yards
for the Webfoots only touchdown,
punted for a 37,6 average, broke
away for 48 yards ; on . a; kickpff
return before he was halted from
behind, and in general was the
guiding spark of the club that was
narrowly edged out by the Navy
men, 10 to 9.
Oregon's next, game was with
Washington State . at Pullman.
Roblin carried the' ball 29 times
for a 3.48 average against one of
the strongest lines In the- confer
ence. His kick of 87 yards net
In the third quarter still is the
longest punt in the nation this
year. His total kicking average
for this game was 43.2 yards
Good Blockers, Toe
Because of a " complete lack of
blocking backs Roblin was forced
to move to the signal-calling, post
for the Washington and ; Idaho
contests. Both opponents agreed
that Tornado Tommy . was the
best blocker they had faced this
falL His defensive performance
as a line backer led observers to
class him with: Mike Mikulak,
1933 Oregon all-American,
"Rainbow", so nicknamed be
cause of his "blooper passes, hit
his zenith in the California game
at Berkeley. Shifting ta the full
back position because-Bill Davis,
only fullback on the Duck roster,
was injured, he T?ersonally march
ed 67 yards against athe Golden
Bears in a wild third quarter and
climaxed it by- plunging over for
the score that brought the Web
foots within six points of the Cal
if ornians.
Warren -Gives Praise
What is the reason for Roblin's
amazing performances?: Webf oot
Coach "Honest John". Warren
sums it up as neatly as anybody
by saying, "Tom is morel' than a
mere football player he's an in
spiration. Everything he does Is
accomplished by courage and per-
f&r.ti'nn in YMIltkin. TheSC faCtS
should make him an outstanding
officer when he is commissioned
next June.

Piledrivers Pop
Spitfires, 7-6
The Piledrivers nosed out. the
scrappy Spitfire eleven, 7-6, in
intramural grid play Friday at
the high school. A 48-yard sus
tained drive downfield in the first
period led to a Spitfire touch
down when Dave Jordan skirted
right end for the final nine yards
and the score.' Captain Loren
Helmhout's aerial attempt for the
conversion was knocked down in
the end zone.
' The Piledrivers marehed to a
score ia the third stanza when
Captain Dale Yarnell slashed
ever his own left tackle, then
broke loose for 48 yards and the
. touchdown. His center plange
for the conversion was momen
tarily halted on the two, but he
fell forward the necessary yard
age for the winning point.
The Piledrivers linked five con
secutive first downs to drive deep
into Spitfire territory, but the fi
nal gun stopped them cold.

MOSCOW. Ida, Nov. , 13. -rW) i
Hank Crowley, tegular grid cert-1
ter for the University of Idaho,'
who suffered a back injury in the
game two weeks ago with Mon
tana State university, has turned
out for practice again as the Van
dals prepare for the Saturday
game here with Washington State
collejs . . ' . . . . ,
? r -
over the University of Washing-
ton Saturday.
The squad's arrivafi was de
layed until late Friday night, but
word came ahead of it that Oliver
probably would start Stanford's
two greatest all-American backs
of the past decade together for the
first time. The move would put
Bobby Grayson in at fullback with
Quarterback' Frankie Albert, the
T-formation whiz.
Fliers Hot Favorites
The prognosticators hereabouts
were picking the Pre-Flighters,
undefeated and top-heavy with
former . college stars, to win . by
two to four touchdowns.
Washington is expected to rely
more heavily on passing than in
any game this year. 5 Apparently
figuring there isn't much chance
of getting through the all-star line,
Coach Ralph "Pest" ; Welch has
had the Huskies tossing a sea
son's full quota of passes in this
week's drills. The Huskies' ace
passer. Bob Erickson, probably
will not be in the starting lineup,
however. Welch said he probably
would start speedy Gene Walters
in his place. Erickson was both
ered yesterday with a slight cold.

to engage the Pilots in a second

Hutson Cracks
Yardage Mark
CHICAGO, Nov. 13-(Special)
Chalk up another record for, Don
Hutson, football's great unsolved
problem.
Official National Football league
statistics, released Wednesday, re
veal the spindly Green Bay end
broke his own mark for most
yards gained in one season when
he caught nine passes for 96 yards
against Cleveland. The afternoon's
endeavor lifted Hutson 's gains for
the season to 915 yards, 69 more
than the record he set in 1939.
Bookie of Year?
Bill Dudley, Pittsburgh's spec
tacular tailback, further strength
ened his .-right to the rookie of
the year honor whenjhe picked
up 67 yards against Detroit to
become the most effective ground
gainer since Bill Osmanski of the
Chicago Bears won the champion
ship in 1939 with 699 yards. Dud
ley now has piled up 591 yards.
Pug Manders of Brooklyn won
the title last year with 486 yards
and Whizzer White, then with De
troit, was the champion in 1940
with 515 yards.
Baugh Leads Isbell
Sammy Baugh of Washington
retained the passing lead over
Cecil Isbell of Green Bay when
he completed 14 of 20 attempts
against the Cardinals. Three of
Baugh's passes went for touch
downs, giving him a new league
record of 53 touchdown tosses,
two more than the old mark es
tablished by Arnie Herber of
Green Bay in nine season. Isbell
also broke Herber's record last
week. His three touchdown passes
against Cleveland gave him a to
tal of 52.

Babe Hollingbery said Friday it
is doubtful if Frank Akins, start

Akins has an ankle injury.
Earl Brenneis, pass snagging
back who caught the winning
touchdown pass in the Stanford
game and opened the scoring in
the Oregon State game by com
pleting a 56-yard pass, will likely
start in .place of Akins, the Coach
said.
The only additional change in
the WSC lineup, he added, maybe
the starting of Fred Baker, 210
