Pilot-Cat Braul Should Be Hot
The Willamette-Portland university collision today probably
won't come anywhere near filling Multnomah stadium, but there's a
good chance the two elevens will wage as spirited a tussle as has
shown In the stadium this year. Both the Bearcats and Pilots are
exponents of a wide-open brand of ball and each boasts a pretty
sharp passing weapon. True Jerry Lillie's boys haven't depended to
any great extent on aerials thus far this year but in the persons of
John Burleigh and Bobby Douglas, have a couple of capable pitchers.
The tUt looks to be a near toss-up from where we sit, but the PUots,
though winless to date after taking on big-time clubs aU year, should
possess a sUght edge from the experience they've gained against the
big schools. Then again, talented scamperers like Keith Sperry, Howie
Lorenz and BUI Ewaliko, threats every time they carry the ball,

SAN JOSE. Calif, Nov. 14HT)
Jim Aiken, University of Ore
gon football coach, denied to
night that he hed ever said or
Intimated that gambling Inter
ests ever affected the .University
of Nevada football team or Its
players.
In Reno, the University of Ne
vada athletic board sent a let
ter to the Pacific Coast confer
ence denying statements attrib
uted to Aiken la an article by
Sports Editor Bad Spencer of
the San Francisco News last
week. Aiken and his Oregon
team spent the nicht here prior
to tomorrow's game against
Stanford. He Is a former Nevada
coach.
He said la response to ques
tion that ho had not seen the
story attributed to him, bat ap
parently he had been "misquot
ed and misinterpreted."
Ducks Seek
In Stanford Go Today
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Nov. 14-Special)-The high flying
Oregon Ducks will be looking for their fifth consecutive victory
Saturday when they meet the rapidly improving Stanford Indians
in a conference game at Palo Alto. This is the first time they have
won four straight games since
1933 when the Webfoots tied for
top honors In the PCC Last sea
son the Oregons won their first
three, but they battled to a 0-0 tie
with Washington State In the
fourth game.
Again the Ducks will depend on
Jake Loicht, Norm Van Brocklin,
George Bell, Bob Koch, and- Dan
Garza to provide the scoring
punch. Leicht will bo especially
dangerous running from his left
halfback position if the Stanford
turf is dry, and Bell and Koch add
power and more speed to the Ore
gon backfield. The Indians will
have to watch the deadly pass
combination of Van Brocklin to
Garza. Van Brocklin's needle
threading passes have -been under
wraps for the last few games while
the Ducks have piled up yardage
on the ground, but If the Indians
equal their performance against
USC last week, if might bo ne
cessary for the sensational sopho
more Quarterback to cut loose.
He has completed 61 passes out
of 138 attempts in eight games,
and 17 have gone to Garza.

Violators to Get
One Year Suspension
CINCINNATI, Nov. 14 -(JP)
Baseball Commissioner A. B.
Chandler announced today a one
year suspension from the sport
will be Imposed on any one who
negotiates with a high school play
er in violation of the rule.
In an announcement sent to all
major and minor league clubs.
Chandler said:
"Any club official or employe
conducting any such negotiations
who does not' establish that he
did not know, and by exercising
reasonable care and diligence
could not have known of such
interference with ' such player's
eligibility shall be ineligibilized
for one year."
Leslie O'Connor, general mana
ger of the Chicago White Sox, and
the club were suspended by Com
missioner Chandler several weeks
ago for failing to pay a $500 fine
for signing a high school player.
The fine was paid later after the
American league upheld Chand

club were restored to good stand

a college football team reaches the

even at the top of its league it
goes without saying that it has the
stun that makes champions.
For this reason a half dozen
games draw the top billing on to

exciting.
The nation's only unbeaten and
untied "major" teams at this stage
are Notre Dame,, Michigan, South

Pennsylvania and Perm State.
Kansas, twice tied, still hasn't been
beaten and Southern California has
only one tie to mar a perfect rec

Southern California encounter very
important opposition tomorrow.

Penn and Penn State, with no
conference titles at stake, meet
Army and Navy, respectively. The
