Cas Expects 50 Grid Candidates To Report For Webfoot Practice University of Oregon, Eugene Coach Len Casanova has re ported he expected to have "about 50" candidates on hand for the 1956 Oregon football team when fall practice opens on Sept. 1 at Hayward field. The turnout will include 20 lettermen from the team which last fall started slowly and then came with a rush to win five of its last six games. Four of the last half dozen opponents were ghutout and the Ducks ended the season with a 6-4 record and fourth place In the final PCC standings "I'm certainly glad to have the bulk of our backfield back. Casanova said, "and we have some fine ends and guards led by Capt. Phil McHugh and Spike Hillstrom. However, the prob lem at tackle, where we lack ex perience, and at center, where we are awfully thin, will give us some headaches, I am afraid." WilchM Shrina Gam Casanova, who was in Port land to watch the annual Shrine all-star high school football team, said he was pleased with the announced intentions of more than a dozen of the prep aces to attend Oregon. "We lose almost a dozen members of this 1956 team through graduation and It'i nice to know so many line young men have decided to come to Oregon in the fall. The Duck backfield includes all but one of the top three sets of running backs in 1955 (Dick James, now with the Washing ton Redskins) and also has sev eral outstanding sophomore and Junior college prospects led by Will Reeve of North Bend at fullback, Charlie Toureville at left half, Len Read at right half, and Don Laudenslager of Gresh am, also a right half and a par ticipant, along with Reeve in the 1955 Shrine game.

Duck Coach Blasts Scout Eugene (U.R) University of Oregon baseball coach Don Kirsch, yesterday criticized the signing of Stan Thompson, a freshman left-handed pitcher from Nyssa. St Louis Cardinal scout Tony Governor signed the young hurler last weekend. "The signing of Thompson by Governor and the Cardinals is another in a series of crippling blows which have been dealt college baseball in the last few years by some professional or ganizations and this one man in particular." Kirsch said. Governor drew the ire of Ore gon State Coach Ralph Coleman this spring when he signed Curt Jactfle. iresh.naa at OS' reported a decided increase in interest during the past week with the Stanford game at Eu gene and the Southern California tussle in Portland still leading the way among the fans.

Giants 28, Colts 10 in Exhibition Boston (U.R) The New York Giants defeated the Balti more Colts, 28-10, in an exhibi tion football game at the Boston university field. The Colts got their only touch down in the first quarter when halfback Jesse Thomas ran 29 yards with an intercepted pass. New York quickly tied the score on a 30-yard pass from Don Heinrich to Bob Schnelker. Balt imore scored early in the second period on a 40-yard field goal by Buck McPhail, but after that it was all New York, as Ben Webster, Frank Gifford and Bob by Clatterbuck climaxed drives by rushing the ball over.

Note: Ths Family Council eonslsti of a Judge, a psychiatrist, a newspaper editor, a women's pare editor and two newspaper writers. There consult with clergymen of all faluu and denominaUons. AU letters are held In complete confidence. T. R. M. Our son would test ify against his cousin. George Her husband is false ly accused. T. R. M. Our niece is in volved in a divorce suit and our son is to be a witness for her hus band. Our whole family feels terrible about this. It will create wounds that will . never heal. My husband is worrying him self sick over it. We have talked to our son and pointed out all the harm he would be doing, but he insists that it is his duty to testify. We think it is the influence of his wife, who has always disliked our niece and probably feels happy to see a scandal in our family. I have warned our son that we will never again speak to him if he goes on the stand to hurt his cousin, but this does not seem to make any difference. Georga My mother is being very unfair. I do not intend to testify against my cousin. It is an entirely different situation. It is my cousin who is the ag gressor in the case. She is mak ing false charges against her husband, and I happen to have the . information that would prove that he was not guilty of some of the accusations made against him. I certainly would not want to do anything to hurt my cousin, but I happen to regard her husband as my friend and relative also. I knew him long before the marriage and I feel close to him. I think my cousin is making a terrible mistake and I feel her motives are not good. My wife is no sinister in fluence in this matter or in any other. She feels as- I do about my cousin and her husband, but she certainly has not in stigated me, as I feel much more deeply about it than she does. I think the family should try to dissuade my cousin from pur suing a ruinous and dishonest course, instead of threatening me with family boycott. The Council: If George states the facts correctly, he is in the position of being damned wheth er he does or does not testify. If he fails to testify and his cou sin's husband is thereby unjust ly condemned in the divorce suit, he will have embittered a friend to whom he feels close. But he will not necessarily have pleased his cousin, since she may soon regret the false charges and the final destruction of her marriage. Georges determination to testify is therefore not only high principled, but of considerable practical value to the family. George's mother, instead of threatening and coercing him, should cite his determination to testify as a reason why her niece i should thing again before proce-! edlng with the divorce suit on j such poor grounds. - I George seems morally ob ligated to testify against his cousin's false charges, but he should make certain that the i nature of his testimony is no surprise. Because his cousin s interests and his family's are so i importantly involved, he should let them know to what extent his information belies their i charges, in the hope that he may thus, without actually having to testify in open court, save his friend from the scandal of false charges, save his cousin from the scandal of making false charges and save himself and his family from still deeper difficul ties. (Copyright 1956, General Features Corp.) Roseburg Could Cop Title Tonight Yakima, Wash. U.R) Bil lings, Mont., was eliminated from the regional American Le gional junior baseball here last night, taking a 3-0 defeat from Twin Falls, Ida. Bob Burch, a surprise starter, for Twin Falls, relied on a jump curve and Billings got only six balls out of the infield. Twin Falls, by virtue of the win, plays Roseburg tonight. Roseburg, unbeaten in the tour ney thus far, could sew up the title tonight. A win for Twin Falls would send the two teams into a final game Wednesday for the regional crown. Americans Win In Net Play; Aussies Idle U.R) America's leading play ers advanced in the first round of the National Doubles tennis championships Monday. Vic Seixas and Ham Richard son defeated Roger Becker and Mike Davies of Britain, 6-4, 9-7, and 6-2, in play at Chestnut Hill, Mass. However, the British Da vis Cuppers put up a tougher fight than the score indicates, and the Americans got a mild scare before winning. The crowd of three thousand got a thrill when the French team of Robert Haillet and 58-year-old Jean Borotra, a veteran from the days of Bill Tilden, de feated Dever Jobbs and Chaun cey Steele, 6-0, 1-6, 6-3 and 12-10. The top - seeded Australian team of Ken Rosewall and Lew Hoad drew a first-round bye, and will play today. Tuesday.
