    Viks Share Big Six Title;
Axemen Kill District Hope
By DAVE BLACKMER
Eugene The alert Axemen
chopped the District 4 title
dreams of Salem high school's
football eleven Friday night but
won only a share in the Big Six
title with the Vikings in scoring
a 19-13 triumph over the Mort
men before some 4,500 fans.
The Axemen kept their own
hopes alive along with Lebanon
and Albany who also put their
bids in for the district crown.
The Vikings opened the scor
ing early in the first quarter
via the advantage of a Eu
gene fumble on their own 28
yard line. Gene Garver's spec
tacular shot passes hurdled the
Salem squad down to the Axe
men's six yard stripe. Captain
Jim Rock then drove over on
a handoff from Garver. Rock's
kick was good.
One of Eugene's "Barber
Shop" twins put the Axemen
back in the game in grabbing a
Vik fumble. It was recovered by
Merrit Barber who outran the
Viks to cross over to paydirt for
the Eugene Axemen.
Don Sicgmund's conversion
put the game into a 7-7 dead
lock. In the tumble-filled second
quarter it was a see-saw game
as each team could not get past
Mt. Angel Closes
Season With Win
Over Molallas
Mt. Angel After having lost
Its first two starts in Willam
ette Valley league competition,
the Mt. Angel Preps came back
to tally five in a row, winding
up the season Friday night by
topping the Molalla Indians, 25
to 0.
Held scoreless throughout the
first period, the Preps tallied
once in the second when Bob
Hanauska rammed the final 20
yards. He scored again in the
third and came through with
another six pointer in the fourth.
Paul Bucheit was responsible
for the fourth touchdown. One
conversion attempt was good
booted by Fritz Beyer.

Lee Real Contender
One doesn't hav to look beyond the records to learn the
reason for the formation of the
can club" that is rapidly adding members wherever the Oregon
College of Education Wolves perform. Lee, a 5 foot 8 speed
merchant, weighing 180 pounds, has checked in 13 touchdowns
while performing under the tutelage of Coach Bill McArthur.
His 78 points have been largely Instrumental In keeping the
Wolves' slate clean this year. Last Saturday night he tan to
five touchdowns against Southern Oregon Normal, a perfor
mance that added to his prestige Immeasurably. Lee was an
11-city star while playing with Jefferson high in Portland In
1045. He finished his prep competition with Eugene high and
then registered at the University of Oregon. Later ne trans
ferred to the Monmouth institution where he is now m his
third year.
Call It Gill Court
Oregon State's million dollar basketball plant will be
ready for occupancy before the end of the year and a designa
tion for the establishment will soon be needed. Since Slats
Gill has done more to advance the sport at Corvallis than
any other Individual It would seem entirely proper that the
new structure bear his name. Just from the selfish side of
the situation "Gill Court" Is a natural from a headline
writer's viewpoint The policy of the state board of higher
education in declining to name any college building after a
living Individual is something on the order of waiting unlit
a guy Is dead before pinning a posey on him. Slats appeared
in excellent physical condition a few weeks ago and if they
wait until he is pushing up the daisies the basketball work
shop will be a long time in getting a proper christening.
Emigh to Survive
Since George Norgan and Bill
Emigh that they want him to
zation regardless of the possibility
sold, the Solons business manager
to seek assistance from the state employment commission. As
far back as 1947 the Western International board of directors
considered the advisability of
and the fact that Emigh's name
ing the recent confab indicates that the idea remains alive. While
Bob Abel, Tacoma 'attorney, has done a pleasing job as head
of the circuit, some directors feel that a league Hint draws
patronage around the million mark should have the attention of
a man who has a professional
feeling that the organization will go ahead if Bob Abel is re
tained or if some other responsible individual Is selected . .
Then, ton there Is the possibility
here next year.
Class of '19 Celebrates
It doesn't seem 30 years ago that Oregon and Harvard
were preparing to Invade the Pasadena Rose Bowl tor their
championship contest, but the records say that such is the
rase. In observance of the occasion, as many of the "old
timers" as can get there, will assemble on the Webfoot
campus Nov. 19. They will watch the annual OSC-Oregon
scrap on llayward field and then withdraw to reminisce.
II oil is Huntington, State strret merchant will be among those
present. That Oregon-Harvard game was a classic with the
boys from the east winning, 7 to 6, largely because of the
Webfoots' failure to make good in attempted placeklcks as
the game drew to a close. Two or three of the scoring op
portunities came late in the contest and while Bill Stears
had bern kicking three pointers with regularity all aeason,
the best he could do in the clutch was a near miss. In
those days If the team attempting a field goal, regained
possession as the result of a fourth down blocked kirk,
the play reverted to a first down. This happened in the
Rosa Bowl contest when a Harvard man blocked Stears'
attempt. The ball bounded bark Into Hollis Huntington's
arms and the Webfoots ran a series of three plays with
out scoring a touchdown. Stears would not attempt th
kick again to Skeet Manerud drew the assignment Ills
effort was so close that both sides thought It was successful.
But Referee George Varnell ruled that the ball had sailed

the horn sounded, ending the
first half, the score was still
7-7.
In the third quarter Salem
began a long march down the
field, sparked by Rock after re
ceiving the kickoff. Rock drove
the last 2 yards across the final
stripe good for a six pointer, but
his kick fell wide
On the following kickoff the
Barber twin again took the lead
ing role by getting a Eugene TD.
Merrit Barber returned the kick-
off from the Eugene 25 yard line
to the Salem 45. Barber again
scooted for 16 yards to put the
host team on the Salem 29. Af
ter a series of drives Barber
again drove hard and crossed the
TD stripe. Siegmund's kick was
no good as the score again went
into a deadlock 13-13.
Midway in the fourth quarter
the Axemen staged a big drive,
this time led by Wally Russell
who took the leading role in a 40-
yard march. Cece Hodges, co
captain, carried the pigskin over
Dallas Dragons Surprise
Silver Foxes on 25-20 Win
Silverton Trailing 20 to 12
at the end of the third period, an
alert Dallas Dragon football
team came back to score two
touchdowns in the final quarter
to top the Silverton Foxes 25 to
20. It was the Dragons' first win
of the Willamette Valley league
season. '
An 82 yard drive with Darrell
Reed punching the final two
yards gave Dallas a first period
score. The Foxes, nothing daunt
ed, came back to score twice in
the first quarter with Colan and
Lincoln being responsible for
one each. Both conversions were
registered by Bob Burr.
The Dragons tallied again
just before the Intermission
with a 15 yard forward, Har

accounting for the six points.
It was 12 to 12 at the half.

Al Fedje, who played a bril
liant game at right end, gave
the Bearcats a quick touch
down when he took the next
Whitman kickoff on his own
25 and went all the way back
down the south side of the
field. Cece Conner applied the
block near the Whitman 35
that took out the final Mis
sionary defender. Bill Ewaliko
attempted an off tackle slant
for the point but was brought
down short of the goal line.
An exchange of punts gave
Willamette the ball on its own

Ewaliko doing the ball carrying
drove to the Whitman 30. Ex
pecting a pass Whitman was
caught completely off guard
when Ewaliko took the ball on
the statue of liberty play and
scored unmolested. All Minn

Boyer passed to Allen Salzer for
the six points. Meyer kicked
goal.
The Missionaries tied the
score at 19-all in the third
when they drove 39 yards. A
five yard penalty for substi
tuting at the wrong time gave
Whitman a boost. Meyer's
kick went to the right.
Late in the third period Wil
lamette took over on the Whit
man 47. Ewaliko got away for
14 and Sperry for an additional
4 just before the final quarter
opened. Cece Johnson, on an
end around was halted just
three yards short of a touchdown
and Sperry went over a moment
later. A pass from Ewaliko to
Fedje was good for the point.
With seven minutes of play
ing time remaining Whitman re
duced the margin to a 26-25 ba
sis when they went 75 yards. A
15 yard penalty for unnecessary
roughness aided this Missionary
drive. Willamette was offside on
the first attempt at conversion
which failed. A poor pass on the
second wiped out the try.
Cece Johnson scored the fi
nal touchdown when he blast
ed through right tackle for the
final 17 yards of a drive that
originated on Willamette's 29.
Again Minn kicked goal.
Interception of a Whitman
pass (the only interception of
the night) by Chuck Patterson
touched off another incipient
touchdown that died on the
Whitman one when time ran
out.
Cece Conner, quarterbacking
almost the entire game, tossed
accurately and did a good job
of generalship. A wet ball pre
vented several completions.
First downs favored Wil
lamette 17 to 10 and yardage
395 to 239.
Willamette will conclude its
season next Friday night on
Sweetland field against Pacific.

Coach Finds Barefoot Boy
With Talented Callouses
By GEORGE PORTER
(United Frees Sport. Writer)
Prattville, Ala., Nov. 12 (u.R)
In the Notre Dame locker
room where they still spin the
legends of George Gipp, this
story may have a familiar
ring.
One of the tales of Gipper
goes that Knute Rockne dis
covered him one day when
George, while watching a No
tre Dame practice session, re
trieved a football and casu
ally booted it about 75 yards
back to the field.
Three weeks ago Coach
Fred Jensen of the Autauga
county high school was on the
athletic field when he noticed
a barefoot boy, wearing thick
glasses, kicking a battered
football. Each flat smack of
bare skin against leather sent
the ball soaring half the dis
tance of the field.
- Jensen strolled closer and
watched. The boy didn't bob
ble a punt
"What's your name kid,"
the coach finally asked.
"Howard Gibbons, sir."
"I've been watching you do
ing that kicking," Jensen told
him.
"Ever play any football?"
"No sir."
"Would you like to try out
for the high school team?"
Jensen asked.
Gibbons said he "reckoned"
