' . '.'.. "We had a scrimmage Wed nesday night between the frosh and the upperclassmen with the first year players winning 13-7,"' continued Ak ins. Akins had said the. day before that he would start the team that won and this was apparently the chance the frosh had been waiting for. -., As a result, Frank Ballard will be starting signal caller from the .quarterback slot where he. saw some action last week with, the highlight being a 40-yard pass play taend Jim Dietz.-' Dietz. will be at one of the ends and Clark Peterson will be at the other in addition to his safety back chores on de fense.

It was EOC that rose to unknown heights two years ago to hold the Raiders to -a scoreless deadlock when the men of SOC captured the Ore gon Collegiate conference ti tle. The Mounties had " not won a single game in OCC play but in the last game they surprised the SOCmen. Last year the Raide rs emerged victors by only one touchdown, 19-12.
