S. C. Trjjana a whale of a battlfr possibly even beat them when they clash In Los Angeles September 30. This Is the opinion of Bill Caples. who Is In town for a few days straightening up his affairs prepara tory to ' registering at the Eugene school and reporting to FTeshman Coach John Warren for grid duty with the yearlings. "Tex Oliver really has his varsity players steamed up for Southern Cal," Caples reported. "He is play ing every angle In getting them ready for the game, and there Is not a single man on the squad but what sincerely believes Oregon will win. As an example of what Oliver Is doing to prepare for the game he Is working out the team In the mid dles of the day, when it Is hottest, so the players will get used to the blistering weather in Los Angeles. Th squad also has been working against U. 8. C. plays behind locked gates, and It looks like Oregon might have a few surprises in store for the Trojans." The cx-Mcdford high grldder, wiin'll attend Oregon on a nice football scholarship, snld that two nf the most promising new comers to the Webfoot squad appeared to he Jim- Harris, a sophomore end, and Muck Berry, right Imlfltark behind Meilford'a Bob Smith. The latter Is a transfer from a southern Califor nia Junior college, Is short and stocky and Is tremendously pow erful, he said. He nlso mentioned that Steve Fowler, former Ash land high player, was looking very good at left halfback behind Jay Graybenl. Caples haa been In Eugene for the past month working on the campus and playing around with a football He said there were going to be some mighty big freshmen players enroll k at the school this year, and added that Jack Bowman, last year's Med ford high left halfback, hadn't put In. his appearance as yet.
