and Pacific Badgers are not
scheduled to be in a state of

Both sides have spent the

best exhibition of the Northwest
conference season.
By virtue of Its more im
pressive performance just
one defeat the Badgers are
favored to take the decision.
However, rivalry between the
two schools, dating back many

Short Contract
'No Reflection'
For Odell Team
Seattle, Wash., Nov. 18 (U.PJ
Washington Athletic Director
Harvey Cassill said today the
university's short contract
awarded yesterday to Coach
Howie Odell was no reflection
on the team's disappointing rec
ord this year.
He said the informal year-to-year
contract which the univer
sity renewed yesterday is the
standard practice at Washing
ton. The 39-year-old Odell has had
hard-luck on the won and lost
basis since he came to Washing
ton in 1948 after six highly suc
cessful years as head coach at
Yale. His Huskies dropped sev
en out of nine this year and lost
even, won two and tied one last
year.
But students and alumni back
ed him and the Huskies to the
hilt because of their fine show
ing against tough teams like No
tre Dame and Minnesota. And
two weeks ago the unproved
Huskies beat Oregon, last year's
conference co-champions.

boxing safer.
Should such action be taken,
there are two courses open to

could work their gimmick

The first course probably

The participants may be small

the. Chemawa. Indian, school's
athletic program, but the desire
to win burns just as brightly.
This was amply demonstrated
during Friday morning's session
of the Salem Breakfast club
when representatives of Chem
awa were guests. ,
Superintendent Russell Kelly
spoke of the time when Chem
awa, Carlisle, Haskell and other
Indian schools participated on an
equal basis with the larger col
leges and universities. That is
no longer possible since the white
mans' schools for a number of
years have induced many of the
top notch Indian athletes to join
forces with them.
As for Chemawa, with an
enrollment of approximately
600 youngsters, it is a member
of the Class B division of the
Oregon School Activities as
sociation. Coach Bill Patterson intro
duced a half dozen senior mem
bers of the football squad and
praised the entire group for its
spirit and determination.
.Others introduced from Chem
awa were E. M. Hudson, boys ad
viser, Allan Shepard, faculty
member and Rube Saunders.
Now retired, Saunders was one
of Chemawa's most outstanding
athletes.
The program was arranged by
Cliff Parker and decision was
reached to make it an annual af
fair. Seats to Be Added

Putting boxing under the ag
riculture department, however,
would be a break for the fans.
Many a current customer wishes
that they'd take all the alleged
heavyweights in action and stow
them all in cold storage. Or
even warm storage.
It would seem, however, that
the able Greene is rushing the
growler a little bit too fast. If
the rest of the guys in the sports
racket get wind of his plan, he's
going to find an S.R.O. sign hung
out when he visits the capitol.
