A road without turn would be
a mighty monotonous thoroughfare
and likewise a aeries of football
fames over a period of years with
one side taking all of the lickings
wouldn't be exactly cricket. So
after six years of being on the re
ceiving end the Whitman oollega
Missionaries have decided to do
some thing about It. That some
thing will be demonstrated at Wil
lamette's expense (they hope) next
Thursday afternoon at 3 o'c'ock.
Coach "fipec" Keene's margin of
wins during the past six years has
been entirely unanimous to say the
least. His clubs have totted up a
grand total of 109 points during
that time as against six for the
Missionaries. Six wins In a row
for the Bearcats with Whitman be
ing whitewashed every leason ex
cept last when they managed to
tally a lonesome touchdown.
That Unt ail of the yarn,
that's Just the beet of It Inso
far as Willamette Is concerned.
Prior to 1931 Whitman won
every eonteet with the excep
tion of IBt when the Bearcats
came oat ahead 40 to IS. That'i
the game which Spee Keene
eredlts with giving him the big
gest thrill he has enjoyed elnce
hooking np with the Methodist
Institution, That was the pitch
ing duel m which Curtis (Hi
ram) French went for a touch
down every time a baekfleld
partner threw to him. One odd
clreumatanee eoneemlng ath
letic relatlonHhlps between Wil
lamette and Whitman Is the
fact that there never has been
a tie game of football doling
their IS years of gridiron Joust
ing. The elonrsi thing to a
deadlock came In 1924 when
Willamette loot t 1 by the
margin of a mlMcd goal kick.
The most lopMded wore of the
series came In 1M4, the year
God's gift to attentive audi
ence. Dr. Bruce R. Baxter, ar
rived en the scene. That 15 to
9 panting still gives Coach "NtjrM
Borleske a severe case of ceph
alalgia. In fact he sees upota
before his eyes every time
someone mentions six bits.
Regard leu of what happens
Thanksgiving day, and It promises
to be plenty, we submit the record
aince 1920, (he year the two Insti
tutions started tanning the hide of
the original pipkin.

ful of the fact that their fullback,

Whitman Missionaries will Invade

conviction they can repeat the Pa

The 20-7 defeat of Colorado col

Morrill and his beefy running mate,
Bill Martin, on the bench, fired the

Willamette will face one of the
heaviest lines the Missionaries have
had In many years and with plenty
of reserves for a change.
Forced to worry along most of the
season with the hard-crashing Mor

on the sidelines, veteran Coach Nig
Borleske has found sophomores Har

mistakes at crucial times. Against

Missionaries made few mistakes and
they dominated play In both divi

"This has been the most rapidly

The Dons of the University of San

The San Franciscans scored a
touchdown midway in the first
period and collected a safety line in
the fourth. Otherwise the game
was scoreless and even, neither team
being able to gain through the op

The lone touchdown was the re
sult of a well -maneuvered reverse

4 Sectional
Clubs Crowned
By Hugh S. Fullerton, Jr.
New York, Nov. 31 OP) Four sec
tional football champions are sport'
lng brand new crowns that can't be
knocked off until next season; the
1938 campaign Is practically over
In some regions; but the big ques
tion of which teams are to be rated
the best In the nation, which two
will meet New Year's day In the
Rose Bowl and In other post-season
games, still is to be decided.
Most of these problems probably
will be Ironed out this week when
the Thanksgiving day classics and
next Saturday's climax games bring
the season almost to Its end.
Last 8 a turd ay saw the Big Ten
campaign close with Minnesota on
top again: Oklahoma complete its
sweep of Big Six honors; Duke walk
off with the Southern conference
crown; Utah take the title In the
Rocky Mountain Big Seven and
California clinch at least a tie for
Pacific coast conference honors.
Each of these new champions has
a claim of some sort to high nation
al ranking, but there are other
claims which must be considered,
The "major" unbeaten and untied
teams are Georgetown In the east
Notre Dame and Oklahoma In the
mid-west; Texas Christian In the
southwest, and Tennessee and Duke
in the south. Texas Tech and West
ern Reserve may be as good as some
of these but they haven't been able
to prove it yet.

end and a handful of Thanksgiving
day games will be tils finish tor
1638.
Highlights of tha meager sched
ule Thursday, Friday and Saturday

over Orant that nailed the Port
land prep title for the democrats;
Salem's 20-0 romp over Sllverton
after the capital city's bitter loss a
week ago to Eugene; Medford'a 31-0
suppression of Grants Pass that
left the southern Oregon team still

MUwaukie. Mtlwaukle tuned up by
overpowering Gresham, 38-0. Salem

kie this year and the Vikings did
It by a scant 20-19 margin. Salem
will play Corvallis turkey day on
the letter's gridiron.
Medford, unbeaten but tied by
Hood River, lined up a Thanksgiv
ing cross-state game with Mac-Hl
last week contingent upon Ash
land's willingness to call off a Sou
thern Oregon league game on that
day and forfeit. Ashland refused
so the prospects of Mac-hl appear
ing In a late season game of state
title significance dwindled.
Columbia prep ran up the big
nine league flag by beating Hill
Military. 14-0.
Chandler of Ttgard blocked a
Hillsboro puns- and recovered the
ball for a touchdown that enabled
Tlgard to tie Beaverton for the
Tualatin-Yamhill league lead. The
score was 7-0.
Ashland played the only Inter
state game of the week, losing to
Areata, Calif., 31-21.

A Thanksgiving day crowd at Lo .
Angeles will see U.S.C. hook up with
the Bruins of University of Califor

California wound up It season
Saturday with a narrow and lucky
6 to 0 win over Stanford. The Oolden
Bears have won six games and lost
one to O. 8. C. Southern California
ha a record of five win and on
loss to Washington.
The ten members of the confer
ence would vote on the western Rose
Bowl representative in case of a tie
for the championship, and In view
of the decisive OJS.C. victory over
California It Is expected the Tro
jans would get the Invitation.
Ken Priestley, the University ot
California graduate manager, argues
however in case of a tie between
U.S.C. and California .the Bears
should get the bid because they are
defending champions, and as in the
prize ring the champ retains hi
title In case of a draw.
Eastern opponents for the January
2 classic at Pasadena seem narrowed
down to Texas Christian, Tennessee,
Duke, VUlanova and perhaps Okla
homa. The other conference encounter
last Saturday provided another of
the season's many surprises. At Port

the comeback aspirations of Wash
