the Western conference title with

List Duke Trotter as a" typical as well as good coach. He's un
happy that .transferitis took Big Bob Sheridan, the crack Wash
ington State hoop center and add3 in the ame breath that
Woodburn Bill Hanauska. quite a flinger in these parts, goes
out with the next batch bf V-12'ers and won't be available for
s, the Ncrvrycat nine next spring . . . "Oh, me" sighs Duke . . .
Speaking of coaches,; the last three Willamette hoop mentors
"Happy" Howard Maple, Lt Com. "Spec" Keene and Trotter
were on hand at "the-WU-Packard opener Friday night . . . With
that many brains about the 'Cats should have won by merely
outsmarting the foe . . Incidentally, Keene bundled up family
and returned to San Francisco yesterday after his short leave . . .
if We Only Had Bob Sheridan !
- In ra & 'Cat hoopstors. ? Trotter believes the departed
Sheridan would have "made" the dub. After wtrtchlng the
Navycata In their opener tt wen apparent they could have
- used one rugged gent on the backbocErda and one who
' would hava given them a scoring threat from the foul-Una
key, Sheridan would have remedied both needs.
As it is. Trotter visions considerably better' tilings for the
hoopsters later' on as soon as they become more "unitized" and
sure oL themselves. Duke . was impressed more than a little by
the playing of 6-foot 2-inch Bill Stroud, formerly of Jefferson high,
and visions Stroud helping the dub considerably in the capacity
which would have been Sheridan's had he not been trans-
ferred. ' - j - . ; v' .-",",
1 Trotter intends keeping right on with his "double-decker"
system starting his slower five of Kunke, King, Corenhaver,
Frank and ;t Runyan and r then inserting fire-laddies Director,
Brown, Brownlee and Lund, to work with Runyan at "runnin "em
, to death " Of coarse there may be some personal changes made
on the. first five after Friday's preview,

Season
Set for 1p.m.
The fourth and final football
dish of the season for still hungry
pigskin followers comes to pass
this week on Sweetland field when
iaiem nigrrs so-so viks swap
tackles with the power-laden
Portland Jefferson . high Demo
crats Thursday. The awaited grid
morsel,' tabbed for a 1 p.m. start
will serve as one course of the
Turkey Day doin's hereabouts.
Coach T. Drynan's ap-and-
' downers, victorious fear, times,
second - best another four and
tied once in their nine ontincs
, this season, will be forced to the
limit Thursday if advance no
tices from the Rose City are cor
rect. Although the Demos wound
ap third In Portland prep play,
-they are looked upon In many
circles as at present the best el
even in the lot. A shaky start
nullified a sisxllnr finish by
Coach Eric Waldorf's lads.
The Democrat line is a little on
the Weighty side it averages
near the 180-pound per mark
but will be outweighed by the big
Salems some five pounds per pil
lar. What is lost to the Viks in the
line is more than made up in the
Jeff backfield, however, since it
hefts an average of close to 170
pounds per and presents two of
the highest scoring threats in the
Portland league in 190-pound Full
back Ployd Simmons and Right
Half Harold Ellmers.
Simmons was first In Port
land league ' scoring with f 4
points ever the season and was
termed a rood bet to make All
City. EUmers was fifth In ? the
scoring standings with SS points,
and although weighing only ISi
is reported as being- one of those
here - he - Is-there-he-g oes- type
rompers.
' On the other hand, the Viks,
who are capable of playing A-l
football, caAie. through the Friday
night Medford 0-0 deadlock in top
shape. They'll probably be the
same for the Demos. There's even
a possibility navy-bound - Tex
Worley, the Viks rugged tackle
will be on hand for the finale via
holiday leave, and if he is the T
men will have one of the better
linemen in the state to toss against
the vaunted Jeff offense. ;
