Aiken Slates Full Work
For Giant Killing Cats
(Br the Aatoelatrd PreMl
Coach Jim Aiken scheduled a full scrimmajfe today for the
University of Oregon gridderi in case Washington State comes
to town Saturday bent on giant-killing. It will be the home-
- coming game.
At Pullman, the Cougars
worked on pass defense in hopes
of halting Norm Van Brocklin,
Oregon's passing ace. WSC came
out of its 10-0 win over Wash
ington without any crippling
wounds.
The memory of that game was
still strong in Huskyville where
Reg Root's unsmiling athletes
are getting ready for Saturday's
homecoming game with the
University of California. Scouts
who saw the Bears rout OSC,
42-0, last week, reported Cal
is the best they have seen this
year.
Oregon State stalked through
a gloomy practice and looked
forward with little relish to go
ing south again this week-end.
But cheer up, boys, this time it's
UCLA: you'll probably win.

Skits
BY FRED ZIMMERMAN, Capital Journal Sports Editor
Verdell Ragsdale, Willamette university graduate and former
Mt. Angel Prep coach, jumped into a hot spot when he accepted
the No. 1 coaching assignment at Medford but his record to date
Indicates he is making good in a big way. Medford high's 27 to
T thumping of the Klamath Falls Pelicans last week was the
third consecutive win for the "Black Tornado" and at this writ
ing it appears the squad will be in the thick of things when the
ctate football championship is under consideration.'
Looks like the Veterans of Foreign Wars are coming up
with a strong fistic card Wednesday night one that will
warrant a capacity audience. Matchmaker Tex Salkeld has
been accused of providing mediocre talent for his Salem pro
grams1 but such names as Bobby Volkc, Henry Lee, Rod Mc
Dowell and Jerry Struts: provide reasonable assurance that
the maximum amount of entertainment will he available
In the armory arena. Strutz Is the' lad who fought two boys
on one card at the armory last winter, winning both bouts.
He Is paired with Jimmy Gooding for the fifth time. Each
contestant has won two battles, so the one Wednesday night
will be the clincher.
Of course there's many a slip from the cup etc., but we submit
the Webfoots cleared a tremendous hurdle when they decisioned
the Trojans. There was but one point difference in the outcome
but one point constitutes a win and that's what counts. With
four conference games remaining on their schedule the Ducks
cannot let down for a moment, particularly so in view of the
apparent strength of the California Bear. Oregon's schedule calls
for five more games, including the King's X affair with St.
Mary's. It's WSC next Saturday at Eugene; St. Mary's at Eu
gene, Oct. 30; Washington In Seattle, Nov. 6; UCLA in Los An
geles Nov. 12 and Oregon State at Corvallis, Nov. 20.
California plays Washington in Seattle next Saturday; the
Trojans In Los Angeles, Oct. SO; I'CI.A in Berkeley, Nov. 6;
WSC In Berkeley, Nov. 1.1 and Stanford on the California
campus, Nov. 20, Should both Oregon and California win
the balance of their games, the decision as to which school
would get the Rose Bowl bid would he up to the members
of the Coast conference. However, speculation at this writing
is pretty much In the category of the guy who counts his
chicks before they break through the shell. Both Oregon
and California could he beaten during the balance of the sea
son, thus simplifying the matter.
"It might Just as well have been 65 to 0 as 42-0," reports
Howard Maple, former OSC gridder who was a spectator in
Berkeley for the Beaver-Bcar contest. The larger score would
probably have been rolled up had Conch Lynn Waldorf used his
first and second teams insload of dipping down into the third and
fourth stringers, Mnpie believes. The former Beaver quarter
back says Waldorf has a wealth of material, big, fast men who
know what to do when they become involved in a game. He
compares the Bears favorably wilh last year's Notre Dame squad.
And from Johnny Lewis, assistant coach at Willamette,
comes the information that the CI'S Loggers are loaded this
year. Lewis scouted the CI'S SI. Martin's game in Tacoma
which was won by the Loggers, 31 to 0. While obviously
nder-manned as compared with former seasons, St. Martin's
Rangers had difficulty In coping with their rivals. The Log
gers will be here In full force to help Willamette celebrate
homecoming next Saturday afternoon.

Blountstown, Fla VP) How do
you get your fishing worms?
Got up early in the morning
and dig them? Not if you live
in North Florida. They "grunt"
them out of the ground here.
And it's a big business big
enough to provide a living for
hundreds of families.
How do you go grunting? In
the worm-rich territory around
Blountstown they do it like this:
Hardwood pegs are driven
into the ground. One member
of a grunting crew rubs an old
automobile spring leaf over the
tops of the pegs. It makes a
noise exactly like the grunt of
a bullfrog and causes ground vi
brations over the wide area. This
disturbs the worms and drives
them to the surface.
The rest of the grunlers gath
er in the harvest. They get from
15 to 25 cents per hundred
worms. Fishermen buy them
from the crew operator for 75
cents to $1.00 a hundred.
Local residents who don't
grunt themselves can still cash
in on the industry's profits by
leasing "worm rights" on their
land. One property owner who
paid only $3,500 for his acreage
has taken in $1,500 in worm
"royalties" in just one year, the
state game and fresh water fish
commission reported.
. . . where confederates like
this gather a slimy harvest
like these . . .
Some North Floridians have
gone a step further and are sav
ing themselves the trouble of
hunting worms by raising them
in their back yards.
The domesticated worms are
kept in a mixture of cotton seed
hulls, ground corn husks, sugar
cane waste and peat moss. They
eat alfalfa hay, wheat bran and
snap corn.
Packed in cardboard contain
ers lined with paper and peat
moss, the worms will keep alive
for well over a month. One
worm grower has taken in
nearly $4,000 since the first of
the year through sales to anglers.
Fight Card Winner
To Get Snapp Bout
A crack at the Pacific northwest middleweight crown, now
worn by Jack "Ginger" Snapp of Klamath Falls, awaits the
winner of Wednesday night's main event of the Veterans of
Foreign Wars boxing show atf-
the armory. The principals in
this 10 round scrap are Bobby
Volk of Portland and King
Henry Lee of Seattle.
Tex Salkeld, matchmaker of
the VFW, states that Snapp has
agreed to defend the crown in a
15-round test for.the undisputed
northwest title, the match, in
all probability, to be staged in
Salem.
Lee, according to his manager,
Jim Carroll, is a potential mid
dleweight champion. Volk, well
known for his fistic ability
racked up seven straight knock
outs during a series of engage
ments in the Legion arena in
Hollywood.
The balance of the card in
cludes a six-round semi-final
"rubber" event between Jimmy
Gooding and Jerry Strutz of
Portland. Each has two wins
over his opponent.
