I! f TIGER INJURIES ON EVEOF GAME Backfield Good, Except for Hospital List Second, Third String Ambitious Beat Roseburg, Is Slogan WHEN GIANTS WHIPPED SENATORS IN OPEfO , (By Harold Orove) With the Injury list mounting. the high school grid squad la practicing hard tor Saturday with one thought "beat Roseburg." Backfield Coach Ed Klrtley will have had a few more gray hairs add ed to his head when he sums up his Injury list and his "well" list. He will find that the Injuries will have It. Max Olllnsky baa a sprained ankle which will probably be all right for Saturday's game with Roseburg. Tommy White Is not Injured, but out of practice to nurse a bad cold. Stan ley Kunzman, since the beginning of practice, has had a bad case of 'Charley home" in his right leg, as a result of a hard tackle in the game Saturday by one of those playlul Weed players.' BUI Bates was carried off Lie field Tuesday night with a wrenched back. He forgot to re member what happens when you fall on a fumbled ball "cockeyed" with number of other players on top for extra measure. Backfield Going Good Aside from injuries, the backfield la progressing nicely with "Leaping Leo" Ohelardl. "Speedy" Severson doing a lot of ball carrying, Runs Brown calling signals and "Toughy" Lewis handling the other back po sition. While Klrtley Is worrying over his backfield injuries. Coach Darwin Burgher has a few worries himself, "Taraan" Estes is out of the lineup Indefinitely with a wrenched knee. He was caught between night and day (that Weed nogrotackle and Weed guard), Burdette Kindred, an other young giant who didn't see action against Weed because of a "Charley horae," will be In the Uno up again soon. . The Injury list Isn't quite as long as that of the back field. First String Competition The old fighting third and fourth trlngs are making the' first and second atrlng hump to keep their places on the respective teams. They come out of the dressing room yell ing at the top of their volcea that 11)0 first string can't play football, but at the close of practice they aro pretty well quieted down. When tho team reaches the dressing room some of them still persist the first team doesn't know how to play football, so the members of the first team merely put them under a cold shower for a very Inconvenient length of time, football suit and all, The third and fourth string boys haven't much In the way of football equipment but they oertalnly make use of what they havo. The spectators are urged to eome and watch the boys practice. They show a lot of enthusiasm. Maybe It will help to revive that, old spirit of the time of Prince O. Calllson's "Black Tornado" team. Everything else Is reviving Its spirit under the N. R. A., so let's have a recovery pro gram of our own. H r iT ''. -' , .: v . zes f : -a ",.

SONS STRIVE FOR BERTH ON SQUAD IN PACIFIC GAME New Faces May Be Seen in Lineup When Hobson's Men Face Collegians at Ashland Coming Saturday ASHLAND, Oct. 8 (Sp!.) On Sat urday. Crtober 7, when the S. O. N. 8 play their opening tilt with Pacific, there may be a few new faces In the starting lineup. Practice scrimmage has proved there were players on the bench that could hold their own with the regulars. So far, Mahoney has been getting the call at center, but It appears that he will have to settle down to work If he wishes to keep Fritz out or the lineup. The two regular guards, Patterson and Ander son, are being pressed hard by Mc Lean. Nor t ham and Marshall. All three of these playeu are young and tnexperiencea. but are coming ior- ward so rapidly that It appears as If any. of them might break In as a regular. Titckles Have Opposition. It Is quit poslble that Coach How ard Hobson will have more strength at the tackles. Carter and Oakes, both veterans, have had no real com petition, but It now Is quite appar ent that they will be pressed for their starting position. Ward How el. It Is remembered, played tackle at Ashland high school and could easJly be shifted to a tackle berth, That Is his natural position and he may be placed there any time In the near future. With the abundance of good guards, Swede Anderson may be moved to tackle, also. That will make four food tackle that should be abis to stop the plays directed at them. At the beginning of the season there was a scarcity of ends. Thia has almost become a thing of the past for many good end have re ported for service since then. Howell and Roblson have been playing the positions, but Jack Cook, Rasmussen and Ayre are on even terms with them. Ay res I developing rapidly and should hit his stride this week He Is an excellent tackier and 1 fair at catching passes. Cook and Ras mussen are younger men but have goodQfhtgh school records and look good In practice. Fugllt Calls Signals. Pugltt now has the signal calling berth. Louie McAnnlch from Klam ath Falls Is the reserve quarterback and Is a good blocker and fair ball carrier. Halfbacks are plentiful. Elmer Brown and Al Bradford were holding down the posts. BU Courtney. Jim Crockett, McPadden. Braddock, Mc Kenzle and Chlpley all have shown enough ability to keep the regulars busy. Wiley and Brtwey are now hitting their stride and may be play ing soon. At fullback Powell Lancaster is back and Is better than ever. After a week of conditioning he should be able to go through a full game. He will probably kick and leave the pass ing duties to Brown. In case of In Jury. Brown could handle the kick ing assignment. The other fullback Is Bob Beach of Longvlew. Wash. He baa plenty of offensive drive and can back up a line. Massle, a sub center from Grants Pass, has been slowed up with an Injury, but ought to make the others work hard before the season Is over. Grants Pass has furnished the squad with Massle, Chlpley, Wiley, Jack Cook and Ira Town. Grant High Trims Jefferson 7 to 6 PORTLAND, Ore., Oct. 6.
