Bo far aa Oregon la concerned the moat momentous football business of the week in the Coast conference will be Saturday's skirmish at Eugene be tween the buoyant webfoots and BUI flpauldlng'a delegation from U. C. L. A. Tti9 victory ovor Washington State brought Oregon hopes to the boiling point and lifted the Ducks In the esteem of the more cautious ob servers. The bill of goods Tex Oliver displayed at Pullman has caused some experts to wonder if they didn't over look Oregon when they sang their pre-aoason paens for Washington. U. 8. C, Stanford and California. Cer tainly Oregon cut more of a swath than Washington or U. S. O. Saturday and It can't be shrugged off with the explanation that W. S. C. Is an Inept weakling. Those Holllngberys have never been too soft In their own yard. While Oregon spoiled the day for the Cougars, U. C. L. A. kicked Iowa around with the same gusto. Thus the two choice dark horsea of the league emerged from the opening sound looking potentially even more nasty than the experts said they might be. Which makes Saturday's cams an elimination between two of the circuit's lurking menaces. . The purposeful Mr. Oliver, who converted Arizona from a stopover point for big traveling teams to pawning ground of great teams of Its own, is quite aware that it will be harder to beat U. )'. L. A. than Washington State, but he pursues the same preparatory policies and spurns the crying towel. The fellow seems to have a quiet optimism about him that Is catching. Currently he la busy guiding the enthusiasm of the W. 8. C. victory Into useful chan nels for Saturday, working In secret. Allowing no player to feel too secure In his position, and subtly infusing In the Webfoots the notion they are good enough to win. Oregon hasn't beaten the Bruins for three years and Judging from early -season soundings Including last AHturday's scores scarcely figure to win this week. IN RING BATTLE DETROIT, Sept. 29. fjp) Jimmy Adamlck, Midland, Mich., heavy weight, lay In Henry Ford hospital today suffering from brain concussion as the result of his bout last night with Roscoe Toles, Detroit negro. Toles knocked out Adamlck In the second round after flooring him three times In the first. Several hours after the fight Ada mlck was still unconscious. Opinion varied on whether Ada mlck would ever fight again. He had been brought along carofully by his handlers and until laat night had never been knocked out although he has been In more than 60 profession al bouts. Some of his optimistic ad- lrers had hailed him as a poten tial champion. Supporters of the 23-year-old ToIe3 had contended toy two years their man would stop Adamlck If given an opportunity. Oliver apparently doesn't believe In Setting his varsity lineup Jell, Frank Bmmona,the wing-foot of the Cougar gams found himself on the second eleven during a few rehearaals this E SACRAMENTO, Calif., Sept. 39.

(This 1 the second of a series comparing the prospective opponent In the coming world aeries.) 0. Furnas, Proprietor Phone 14 By OAYI.F. TALBOT NEW YORK. Sept. 39. (P, Con nie Mack, whose memory goes back to the Indian wars, says the New York Yankees of this year arc the beat ball club he ever saw. He prob ably was looking at the world cham pions.' Infield when the thought oc curred to him. In Lou aehrlg. Joe Gordon. Prankle Crosaettl and Red Rolfe the bullies of baseball really have an elegant Inner works. In fielding skill they are at least the equal of the quartet who perform for either the Chicago Cubs or the Pittsburgh Pirates, who are heading for a photo finish In the National league. Aa distance hitters and run producers they are miles ahead of their world series rivals. This despite the fact both the Cubs and the Pirates havo better-than- average Infields far the best In the National league this season Neither has really a weak snot. Yet It Is Impossible to rank cither with the Yankee four aa a deciding factor in a world series, where sheer power Is all-Important. Sometimes power bowa before a rush of great pitching, but for the most part power Is a com forting thing to have. The Yanks, while hitting less than the Pirates on a group average, really have done far more damage to oppos ing pitchers. In other words, they hit the pay-off punches. Gehrig in six world series haa compiled a hit ting average of .371, Including 10 home-runs. Taking them position by position. the Yankees must be conceded the best man at first and second. Chl csgo fans probably will debate the nomination of the rookie Gordon over their great second anckrr, Bill Herman, but the best opinion Is that Herman has slipped a little this year and that Cordon. If not the best second baseman In the business to day, is closing In on Charley Gen ringer fast. Red Rolfe at third Is at least i stand-off for Chicago's Hack. Most basebaU men consider him the best In the game. If that Is true, then the Yanks need concede only one In field spot to their potential rivals shortstop. Slugging Arkle Vaughan of the Pirates undoubtedly la a more aiuanie player than Croaicttl. vet the little Italian Is such a slick fllder and so fine a lead-off man that VauRhan's margin Is less than It looks. Gordon's play at second base, his habit of snaring balls thnt few other Inflelders would touch, probsbly makes the Yankees a slightly tighter defensive unit than either rival. They havo helped their pitchers with no double plnys up to now, compared to lflO for the Plratea and SB for the Cubs.

HARTNETT'S HOMER IN NINTH, 2 OUT, PUIS CUBS AHEAD CHICAGO. Sept. 39. (AP) Pitts burgh's Pirates went Into the third and last act of a baseball drama at Wrigley field with the Chicago Cuba today, grimly aware It was their beat chance of regaining the lead In the National league pennant melee. Knocked half a game out of first place by Manager Gabby Hartnett's epic home run In yesterday's duslc, the Pirates virtually have to get up off the floor to win the pennant. And the Cubs have to depend upon shattered pitching staff to stop that last stand drive. Upon the winning depended the rise or fall of each club's pennant star, for should the Cubs win they would shorten the mathematical odds which have been against them since they began their great stretch run. But If the Plratea win, they need only take three of their four remain ing games from Cincinnati's Reds to clinch the pennant, even though the Cubs take all three of their scheduled games with St. Lou la. The Cubs' 6 to 5 triumph yesterday was their ninth straight and their 19th In the lost 22 games. Thus they recaptured the front rank position they have not occupied since early June and knocked the Pirates out of the lead for the first time since July 12. But the victory put a further strain on the Cubs' undermanned pitching staff. Blx men worked for Chicago, six oi a tired, overworked crew. Today Russ Bauers, rested and ready, carried Pittsburgh's hopes to the mound. Against him the Cubs pitted BUI Lee, their ace hurler, but weary one. Lee pitched nine In nings against the Cardinals Monday, relieved Dizzy Dean Tuesday and worked an Inning yesterday. in world series atmosphere charged with the excitement of 34,465 scream ing fans, the Plratea were Jittery yes terday but full of heart. Although they committed four bad fielding errors, they battled back to take the lead twice. 4.0W THEY? GTAAn (By the Associated Press) American League W.
