Oregon Webfoots Defense
Leaders in Coast Circuit
Los Angeles tip The Stan.
ford Indians have taken offense
in the Pacific Coast conference
while Oregon has assumed the
leadership in total defense, ac
cording to statistics released to
day by the PCC commissioner's
office.
The two teams meet this
week end in what shapes up to
be a "showdown" for superiority
in the PCC.
Oregon State, which previous
ly held both top positions, has
been dumped into second in each
department. Stanford led in to
tal offense with 333.3 yards a
game to 323.5 for Oregon State
and Oregon boasted the best
mark on total defense, 230.3
yards, to 243.3 for the Beavers.
However, the Beavers con
tinued as the top rushing team
with 245.5 yards to 225.3 for
Stanford. Washington State led
in passing with 150.7 to Stan
ford's 103.
UCLA was tops In team punt
ing and interceptions. The
Bruins have picked off 12 enemy
aerials and have averaged 42.2
yards on punts.
Shea On Top
In individual statistics, Stan
ford fullback Charles Shea took
over the lead in rushing while
Washington' State's Bob New
man continued to lead both in
passing and total offense. Shea
gained 86 yards last Saturday
against UCLA to move past Ore
gon's Jim Shanley and Nub
Beamer of Oregon State for the
rushing lead with a total of 472
yards to 467 for Shanley and
406 for Beamer.
Despite being held to 68 yards
by Southern California over the
Illinois Valley
Football Dinner
Saturday Night
Cave Junction Illinois Val
ley high school football dads will
celebrate with their sons at the
fifth annual Boosters' club ban
quet to be held Saturday night,
November 2, at the high school
gym-
Boys whose fathers are not
available for the dinner will be
the guesti of other valley foot
ball fans. Tickets are now on
sale at $2.50, which will allow
one boy and his dad or stand-In
to attend.
A three hour entertainment
has been planned by Chairman
Pat Whitely and his committee.
Included will be a movie in full
of the Oregon State-Stanford
game. Don Brown will serve as
master of ceremonies.
Proceeds from the banquet
will go toward the purchase of
a "Vibro-Whirl, a machine used
in the treatment of "charley
horses" and sore muscles. It is
similar to machines used in ex
ercise for polio and rheumatism
victims.
For All Athletes
With the Vibro-Whirl comes a
small bathtub, so that hot baths
can be included in the treat
ment. The machine is not for the
football team alone, but will be
used by the entire athletic de
partment for basketball players,
trackmen, wrestlers, and others.
Local merchants have contri
buted much of the food, with
the exception of chickens which
are being bought by the commit
tee. The dinner will be prepared
and served by wives of the foot
ball "dads.
Formed five years ago, the
Boosters club was first chair
manned by Earl Spencer, who
presided for two years. Bob
Cherry took over from him, and
Orviile Meredith had the plan
ning job last year. At the con
clusion of the banquet, this
year's chairman, Pat Whiteley,
will name his successor.
GOOD LOOKING!
week end, Newman had a total
of 52 completions in 100 pass
attempts for 669 yards and six

with 40 completions for 492
yards. In total offense, Newman
had 724 yards, followed by How
ard Willis of Idaho with 565 and

each, followed by Jack Fanning
of Washington State with 30
points. The other Washington
State starting end, Don Elling
sen, was tops in pass receptions
with 25 catches for 334 yards.
Grid Game
Attendance
Up in East
BY FRANK LITSKY
New York flP) College foot
ball attendance is up in the
eastern half of the nation, down
in the western half and almost
the same nationally this season,
compared with the correspond
ing period of a year ago, a
United Press survey showed to
day. The tabulations, based on
home crowds at 109 colleges,
showed that the average attend
ance during the first half of
the present season was 25,481
a game against last year's 25,
489. That decrease of eight
customers a game means an over
all drop of 0.03 per cent.
Increase In East
The East, South and Midwest
all showed increases, the East
leading with a 9.38 per cent rise.
Attendance dipped in the Mid
lands, Southwest, Rockies and
Pacific Coast, with the coast fall
ing 10.42 per cent for the largest
loss.
" The University of Michigan,
whose stadium seats 101,001,
again led all other colleges in
total attendance with 256.986 for
three games. The Big 10 also
provided the national runnerup
in Ohio State, where 242,986
have watched three games.
Those huge turnouts helped
Midwest attendance rise 2.28
per cent.
Elsewhere:
East Army leads with 141,
758 in three games, including
the 96,000 who turned out for
the Army-Notre Dame game in
Philadelphia.
South Attendance up 4.93
per cent. Louisiana State leads
the section with 198,800 in
four games, three under the
lights.
Pacific Coast UCLA is the
sectional leader with 215,330 in
six games. Contributing heavily
to the area decrease were drops
from 268,407 to 189,995 by
Southern California in five
games and 218,000 to 117,000
by Standford in four games.
Rockies Attendance down
4.71 per cent, largely due to a
drop of more than 50 per cent
at Colorado State. Colorado
leads in total turnout with 90,
500 for three games.
Southwest Attendance down
4.30 per cent with nosedives at
Southern Methodist and Hous
ton. Texas has drawn the largest
crowds with 198.000 for three
games, all at night.
Midlands Attendance down
0.20 per cent with Tulsa and
Wichita showing the widest dips.
Oklahoma is the attendance lead
er with 166,700 in three games

NFL Leaders
In Statistics
Unchanged
Philadelphia OP) The Na
tional Football league's leaders
in passing, rushing, pass receiv
ing and scoring remained un
changed today as the teams
headed for the halfway mark in
the season's play.
Eddie LeBaron of Washington,
the little guy among the big
guys, stayed put as the No. 1
passer with Tommy Wilson of
Los Angeles as the leading
rusher.
Clyde Conner of San Fran
cisoc was first among the pass
receivers and Jim Mutscheller
of Baltimore, despite a blanking
last week, held down the top
rung in scoring.
LeBaron upped his passing
average to 10.96 yards gained
for every pass thrown, with 44
completions in 67 passes and a
net gain of 734 yards. The Red

touchdowns passes, and only
three of his chucks have been
intercepted.

a 9.04 yard average, followed by
Lamar McHan of the Cardinals,
Eddie Brown of the Bears and

Unitas gained the most yards,
982, and threw the most touch
down passes, 14. Earl Morrall
of Pittsburgh was second in to
tal yardage with 909.

with 20 receptions.
