Sport Graphs Billy Hulea gays: Athletic Heroes of Present-Day Top Old-Timers Those were really grand articles Pudge Heffelflnger, Tale's all-time all-American guard, had in the last two : Issues of the Satevepost, but like all athletes of the old school, writing or talk Ing about their sport, Heffelfln ger takes the atand that foot- b a 1 l's ancients were superior to grid luminaries of the present age. Like your old-time baseball fan who believes there, has never been the equal of Cap Anson, Cy Young, Larry La Jole, etc., Pudge la firmly convinced mat Jim Thorpe was the greatest ruimack of all time, Prank Hlnkey the mightiest end, Billy Bull, 1888 Yale fullback, the greatest kicker, and so on. That argument, regarding the re spective merits of the past and the present athletes, will go on forever ana never be settled. You can't possibly determine which were the greater, the football, baseball, tennis players and fighters of the past, or those of the present, for the simple reason that you can't bring those old-timers back to their prime and watch them In actual competition with the current and near-past atars. in only one sport that we can think of. Is there an actual and accurate basis for comparison. That sport Is track and field, with Its .tell-tale timing of running event and meaa urlng of distance and height. Seconds and minutes. Inches and feet don't lie. nor do they change from one year to the next, but In almost all other sports the rules, equipment, and conditions have so changed since mat any definite Is Impossible. comparison Even baseball, with Id elabo rate system of hatting, fielding and pitching averages, can't pro vide arh accurate basis for com paring Its heroes of long ago with thoe of thl, generation. The pitching rules have changed, the scoring rules are not the same, even the ball has tinder gone changes since Ed Delahantv and the slugger, of by-gone day's were belting them over the fence. Whnt Delnhnnlv could have done these ilnys. or what Hank Creen berg would have done In 1!0, nobody will ever know. The same holds true In football. Maybe Hlnkey would have considerable trouble making one of our major grid mnrhlne of today, and per haps Ijirry Kelley, say. would, have been only a hench-warmer for Vale In 1888. Who knows? Being a present-day fan, of course, we might as well stick our neck Into the argument and uphold the ath letlc heroes of today. With raold Improvement being made every year In everything from the manufacture of airplanes to the turning out of better mousetraps, why doesn't It stand to reason that athletic prowess la also on the unswlne? w hNV more and better coaches nowadays, keener competition, finer equipment In all lines of sports, and our ath letes are Just as big and Just as fast. In fact, many of them are much faster, as your track records will prove, tn track and field, there has been steady Improvement In all events, records are broken every year Why shouldn't the same apply to other branches of athletic endeavor? We believe It does, although there la no way to prove It. After mulling the thought over In our so-called head for some time now. we believe we will pull a "Salem-Jlmmy Nicholson" affair and ask Oregon State college and Fresh man Coach Bill McKallp very politely what about this Bobby Ettlnger? For those of you who are short memo rled. the "Salem-Jlmmy Nicholson" sffalr started three yeara ago when Mr. Nicholson, a great Salem high school halfback, tried to get on the University of Oregon football team under Coach Prink Calllson. It seemed like Calltaon dldn t think Jimmy was any great shakes as a football player, while all those Webfoot alumnus In Salem differed with him. The reault was that Salem cried tts eyes out for two seasons while Jimmy got splin ters In his panta on the bench, and Coach Calllson let him. The few Bill? Rule.

WASH. times Jimmy got to play, he dldnt do bad, but he still spent most of his time looking on. Now, what we would like to know, 1, why this Bobby Ettln ger hasn't been packing some of that mall for Bill McKallp't Rook team. We have It on extra good authority (name on file) that Hobby haa got his hands on the ball twice In practice this year, and twice he haa scored touch downs. Yet, he has played In no games, and he Isn't even listed on the official Rook roster. A retiring cnap, too modest for his own good, Bobby naturally wouldn't demand a chance to show his stuff. Perhaps he haa been overlooked so far and will yet -be given hla oppor tunity. Let us hope that auch Is the case, else our own version of the "Salem-Nlcholson" affair will start to get serious. And, Just In the hope that this column may somehow find lta way Into the banda of Mr. McKallp, 'the Rook coach, we here with repeat Ettlnger's record while playing for Medford high's Black Tomado in 1039-86-87: The first two yeara ha was the regular blocking quarterback, and all he did was get named on the All Southern Oregon conference first team both seasons, In 1035 as a half back. Last year, playing In the hall carrying left half position, he- again waa named to the all-conference eleven, unanimously. In those three yeara he waa never hurt bad enough to leave the game. He Is a 10-second man, and a blocking fool. What about It, Mr. McKallp?
