Associated Press Sports Writer
Eugene JPi The University of
Oregon football team hasn't many
weaknesses but the one which
stands out most of all is Its lack
of reserve strength.
John J. McEwan, like all clhri
coaches, is endeavoring to build f
championship machine and barrine
injuries may accomplish the trick
this year.
Coach McEwan will be able to
send an all-experienced eleven on
the field of battle but will be hard
pressed for capable substitutes in
cases of an emergency, especially
at the guard and tackle position..
The probable lineup against Pa
cific university nest Saturday In
Eugene will be Stadelman, cen
ter; Lillle and Shields, guards; Col
bert and Christensen, tackles; Ar
cher and Wood, ends; Kitzmiller.
quarterback; Moetler, fullback, and
Mason and Donohue, halfbacks.
Charles Williams, a negro veteran,
may get the call over Donohue if
he recovers sufficiently from a ton
sil operation. All have had varsity
experience except Moetler, who was
out of school last year but who is
concldered an "ace in the hole" by
McEwan.
Other than this powerful com
blnation, the Oregon coach has
little to draw from. Eric Forsta,
a freshman last year, could relieve
Stadelman but he Is a bit green
8y West and Ted Parke are the
cecond string guards but they lack
experience. West Is a sophomore
and Parke a member of last year's
second squad. The tackle reserves
are Marlon Hall and Irvin Schulz,
Hall is a letter-man and Shculz
graduate from the Freshman squad.
Jack Erdley, a 180-pound fleet-foot
ed youth, is pressing Wood hard for
his position and may land before
the season Is over. Erdley was a
freshman last year and Is develop
ing fast. McEwan has a lot of
other candidates for the end Job.'
but not a lot of class.

EASTERN LEAGUE
SHAM BATFTLES
By the Associated Press
With more than two weeks of
sham battles remaining prior to
the big fight for the title, the Ath
letics and the Cubs are moving to
ward the world's series in exactly
opposite manners. Working on the
theory that the best rest is a hard
day's work, Joe McCarthy is keep
ing his regulars at their accustomed
posts as the hirelings of Cornelius
McOillicuddy take their ease upon
the bench or even away from the
park altogether.
It's children's day almost every
afternoon at Shibe park now, and
from the capers some of the Juve
niles are cutting, it might be in
ferred that the Mackmen will boast
a strong freshman squad in 1930.
The Athletics won In ten innings
2 to 1 over the Tigers.
Wesley Ferrell checked a late
Boston rally In the game at the
Fenway and Cleveland won by 4 to
2. A wild throw by Goose Ooslin in
the fifth enabled the Browns to
shade Washington by 1 to 0, Alvln
Crowder winning and Myles Thomas
losing.
The Pirates stopped the Braves
by 10 to 3 at Pittsburgh In the only
National league game. Lloyd Waner
hit a homer with two on, and Lester
Bell retaliated for Boston with the
bases en.pty.

BARNARD TALKS
FOR ATHLETICS
Philadelphia (VP) The Athletics
look like a real baseball outfit and
the American league Is not wor
rying over the probable outcome of
the world series argument with the
Chicago Cubs, declared E. 8. Bar

who dropped off here to see Bon
nie Mack and a couple of ball
games. He saw quite a few Mack
rookies In action, but said he knew
what the regulars could do.
"The Athletics made It a run
away race," Barnard said. "They
have played such great ball we
don't see how any other club can
defeat them In a series.
"We look for the A's to beat
the Cubs. Both are great ball
clubs, but naturally I am backing
my own league representatives. X
think Mack has the best team In
the business right now, and I be
lieve I can safely say It will be the
victor In the series."

What Salem high school's prospects on the gridiron for
the year will be this year will remain somewhat in doubt until
after the first week of preliminary practice, Coach Hollis
Huntington predicted Saturday.
Faced with the handicap of a start two weeks later than
the majority of high school teams'
of the state, the players will have
to buckle down to strenuous work
right from the start, if they are to
make any kind of an early season
snowing, the coach states. Several
teams have already played one game
and some two, particularly the
Portland outfits, while Chemawa.
one of Salem's principal rivals for
Willamette valley honors has been
defeated once and won one contest
during the month.
The coach, returning to the tame
after an absence of several years
will find a team considerably weak
ened by graduation. Many of last
year's star performers have passed
on to institutions of higher learn
ing. The Incoming material la
matter of conjecture.
First workout will be held Mon-
day, but the chances are that be
sides getting the boys equipped lit
tle or nothing win be done.

include Bob Kelly, full back,
Charles Kelly, quarter, Woolley,

"WHEN DO WE

LOCAL BATTLER
"When do we fight?" was the
question propounded simultaneously
Friday afternoon by Art Akers, lo
cal featherweight who won over Ted
Fox via the foul route a week or so
ago, and by Bob Evans, bis manag
er, when the pair drilled into Sa
lem looking for someone who would
tell them If there was any chance
of getting Fox Into the ring in the
near future.
We want a few days notice the
next time Art goes into the ring,"
Evans continued.
If I am to meet Fox again it
should be soon, while the interest
In the match Is hot," Interposed
Akers. "Why wait a month until ev
erybody has forgotten about the af
fair? The time for the match is
right away and I am ready to go,
"Why should we have to sit
round cooling our heels, waiting the
pleasure of Fox. He Isn't too man
around here any more. That was
decided when I received the decision
over him. I am sure I could have
beaten him even If he had not foul
ed me. Bring on somebody else. If
Fox won't fight. I bar none of them
as long as they weigh In somewhere
near my poundage."
As far as could be learned Fri
day, Fox and his manager were in
eastern Oregon on a hunting trip.
Nothing regarding a return engage
ment between Fox and Akers can
be done until the hunting expedi
tion is over.
