The best Coll qunrtcrbuck since Y. A. Tittle (now with the 49crs); Another Tobin Rote; We've finally got n quarterback . who can run untl pass," reports Walter Taylor in the Baltimore Sun. Shaw was also praised by Bernie Bierman, ex-Minnesota coaching CHUCK AUSTIN Ready, willing and able great. Bierman was halftime guest and when asKcd to name the out standing player on the field up to that lime, he said Shaw. Adding, "Shaw's doing a great job for a rookie he's a great boy." Vale Vikings, who dumped Prine villc, 1312 last year and kept right on going to capture the slate A-2 football championship, have taken up where they left off last year.

The Indians were Clackamas county's only unbeaten football team, and secondly, they hadn't thrown a pass all year! According to head coach Wes Hog land the Irdians operate from a straight-T. but haven't thrown a pass yet this season. "It's up to the quarterback", was his only comment. "We have a good passing attack, but I guCM'i the quarterback does n't think so. I've (old him to call his own game, and that's just what he does, Hogland added. Culver coach Ruck Monroe Is mighty perplexed these days. Last year after Glide beat the Bulldogs for the state six-man footbal! championship, Culver made ar rangements to play the Glide team this year, Oct. 28 at Cohurg. Rc-j ccntly Monroe noticed that Glide has moved up and is playing 11 man fool ball this year. Letters to Glide trying to clarify; the situation, haven't brought nnj intwer us yet and Buck is still wondering what to do about the dale, use both his first and second string and play 11 man, or hope that Glide will only use six men. It is confusing anyway you look at it. , Chuck Auslin, Bend's only con tribution to the 19Tw University of Oregon football team is described Ihusly in the l!tT5 Duck Dope.: Chuck Auslin 1197, 6-1,. junior).!

HeThinks'Split-T'Will Kill Off Grid Af tendance Madras football players arc qiiiie active in class activities. Don W'alKon Is senior cJiikr. president, By HAL WOOD United l'rt Swru Writer SAN rRANClSLU tUP) The 'sput-T" iormnlion coitege football is going to kill off attendance, un less used omy with the proper ma terial, Coach Bob Bronzan of San Jose State warned today. Bronzan, using the split-T with his undefeated SparUins this year, gives crcdrt to his quarterback, tony Teresa, for some ol the suc cess enjoyed by his club. But it is my belief that the split-T should be used only when the proper materia) is available," said Bronzan. Too many teams are trying to use it when they do not have a fast quarterback. Tnc trouble with the spIit-T when you don't have the right ma terial is that it provides a mighty dull game for the spectators when your team looks bad." TTCa Killed High Bronzan rates his Teresa as one of the finest split-T formation quarterbacks in the country. The split-T has been gaining ground in the West since the spec tacular success of Bud Wilkinson of Oklahoma, who right now is working on a sliing of 21 straight By NO KM.

Line Spread Wide For the unitiate, the split-T is a formation wherein the line is spread half way across the field, i basically. After that, Ihe hackfielri: iy go into any type of fomiatiou from the "tight-T" lo a flamcer set up. Many of the top coaches are usi ng a nion n ien version now with just both ends split off from Ihe center five on the line. Then they put flankers hehind the split ends, thus opening up the game for a passing attack. But Bronzan. considered one of the more solid young coaches in the country, nrimits this is a spec tacular brand of the game that requires n special hrand of talent.

Toward Upset Spwlnl lo The Bulletin LINFIELD COLLEGE, McMinn ville, A winlrss band ol Lin field Wildcats will be out to pull an upset out of the bas this Satur day afternoon when they tuke on the rough Lewis and Clark Pioneer in their second Northwest Confer ence game of the season. Although the Wildcats have drop ped successive games to Souther' Oregon, Portland State and College of Idaho, the frosh-.tprinkled lineup has been -improving with each game and could give the Pioneers a real run for their money. No injuries were susained against Col' lege of Idaho, Saturday night that will keep men out of action this week, and the "Cats" hope to be at full strength for the Lewis and Clark outfit. Several of the Wildcat veterans have been playing very good ball this season and if some of the frosh come through Saturday they oould pull an upset out of the hat. Included among these veterans are guard Howard Morris and enn Howard Glenn, both practically 60 minute ball players this season. A change in the Linfield line may be in store this week, as end Russ Kofford may play tackle after showing well there against College of Idaho. The big fresh man from LaGrande is also a fine receiver as an end. The ZA counties in Texas range in size from Rockwall's 147 square miles to Brcwster'J 6208 square miles..
