UO-UW Highlights PPC
On Weak Grid Week-end
San Francisco, Nov. 15 U.R) Two footbiP teams, looking back
on "what might have been," renew acquaintances in a traditional
football game tomorrow that highlights a weak week-end tor
western fans on the gridiron. It will be Oregon versus Washing
ton at Seattle and the 42,000 fans that will see the game prob
ably will make up the biggest
crowd of the day on the west
coast.
Built Around Arnie
The Washington Huskies,
coached by Ralph (Pest) Welch,
were boomed in pre-season dope
as a powerhouse with a highly-touted
fullback named Arnie
Weinmoister as the man to sup
ply the punch.
"The trouble has been," says
Alex Schultz, sports editor of
the Seattle Times, "that the team
was built too much around
Wcinmeister. When he was in
jured we didn't have much left."
The fact remains that the
Huskies started off by losing
to St. Mary's and UCLA in
their first two games; defeated
Washington State; lost to USC
then In the last two week
ends thummed California and
Stanford. The team right now
apparently is rounding into
form.
Coach Tex Oliver's OreRon
elub has done just about the
same as the Huskies. The at
tack was built around one man
speedy Jake Leicht. Leicht
was on the injury shelf for
most of the season. He is back
in the lineup, but the team nev
er regained the form that was
expected in the pre-season
dope.
Washington and Oregon have
met 38 times on the gridiron,
with the Huskies winning 19
and losing 15, with four being
tied. The Huskies are favored
to make it No. 20 Saturday. In
another game in the Northwest.
Idaho entertains Portland at
Moscow.
Down California way, Oregon
State is a slight favorite to
edge University of California;
Stanford is picked to beat Wash
ington State; UCLA, of course,
should drub Montana.
In a Sunday special, the Gal
loping Gaels to St. Mary's, after
a week's rest, return to Bction
against Santa Clara in San Fran

Here it comes again bowl talk. Sugar, Rose, Orange, Raisin,
Sun, Cotton 'n' Oil, then Glass, and even talk of a Peach Bowl
down in Atlanta, Georgia. But even this doesn't hit ail the
bowls.
If the bowl increase continues, then soon it will be the
case of too many bowls for the fans. Or maybe the foot
hall season will be extended until teams play straight
through from September to January. Bowl games would
merely he the climax (Aha! One time "climax" means
both high point of interest and the end).
How About Glasses for Game Officials?
Now take the Glass bowl that starts this year. The Univer
sity of Toledo (in Ohio) proposes a new-fangled bowl, with
December 7 as game date. The "glass city" has gone all out
on arrangements. A blown glass trophy will be presented to
the winner. Players will wear jackets and keep warm with
blankets made of fiber glass. Also included are glass dugouts,
a glass press box and a glass scoreboard in blocks of blue and
gold, the Toledo colors. Small colleges will play in the Glass
bowl this year, but Toledo hopes for bigger things in the future.
Every so often tales drift down of action by the Spokane
Round Table society. They want a bowl, too. "Esmeralda
Bowl" will be the name. Participants will be two top high
school elevens on the west coast. The game will be held
on Thanksgiving day.
Atlanta will begin construction work soon on a Peach Bowl.
Another New Year's day project. The Optimist Bowl game
will be played in Houston, Texas, on December 21.
Howl-Me-Overs Started in 1916
The world of sports goes on, and new ideas are in demand.
But bowl games aren't exactly new. The Rose Bowl started in
1916, when Washington State walloped Brown, 14 to 0. The East
versus West Shrine game in San Francisco began in 1925,
when West bumped East, 7 to 0. Depression years brought
surprises, with the Orange Bowl in 1933, the Sugar Bowl in
1935, Sun Bowl in 1936, and so on up the line. The bowls seem
to have it and will stay.

Hold Session
For Poet Duel
Reaching Los Angele3 Friday,
Coach Walter Erickson sent his
Willamette university Bearcats
through a brisk workout in
preparation for their clash with
the Whittier College Poets Sat-
l urday night at 8 o'clock. The
j workout was more for the pur
pose of limbering up a bit fol
lowing their long train ride,
than for polishing up their rep
ertoire of plays. No broadcast
of the game has been announc
ed. Both teams returned to
gridiron competition this fall
after a layoff due to the war.
However, the Poets' idleness
has been of longer duration
than that of the Bearcats
whose affiliation with the
Navy's V-12 program kept
them busy with the fall sport
with the exception of last
year.
Assistant Coach Elmer
Schaake scouted the Poets a
week ago and brought back the
information that the game could
be rated as a toss up.
Elk Season
Almost Over
Portland, Nov. 15 Pi The
game outlook again is poor for
the coming week-end.
The state game commission
said geese were scarce, duck
hunting was only fair in the
Willamette valley and poor
on the coast. Salmon condi
tions were fair to poor.
Eastern Oregon elk hunting
is best in Morrow county. Har
ney, Malheur, Gilliam and
Wheeler reported bad roads and
few elk kills. The season will
end Wednesday. The commis
sion reminded hunters they
must report all elk kills.
The western Oregon elk sea
son ended yesterday.
