Beavers Pick Up Pieces, Practice for Idaho Game I OREGON STATE COLLEGE, Corvallls, Oct. 29 (Special) The boys are picking up the pieces around the Oregon State football camp this week and will attempt to get thorn all back In place In time for a contest here Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock with tha University of Idaho. The Orangemen, winners over .Washington and Stanford, were the victims of one of the major upsets ot 1941 last Saturday when they lost to Washington State 7 to 0 at Pullman. No alibis are coming from the Oregon State players or their poaches. Washington State won rt decisively that there is noth ITTig for the Orangemen to say. Coach Lon Stiner Is fortunate that he has no physical prob lems this week. All his players came out of the contest in good shape. George Peters, the big quarterback, and Don Durdon, tha little right halfback, are nursing bruises but they wilt be ready to play against Idaho. . The big task for Stlnor is to put his players In the right mental attitude for the Idaho game. Immediately after losing to Washington Slate the Orange men wore in low spirits. But Stiner hopes tho defeat will have the desired effect and that his boys will come back fighting mad. . Unless aome of the regulars show they can play better foot' ball than they did last Saturday, it is quite possible some now faces will show up at starting JUme Saturday. This situation Q'obably would bring to the ore soma soohomore backs in cluding Everett Smith, Bill Mc Innls and Bob Leichardt.

S. military academy today which announce, flatly and conclusively, "We've bet our brltche. agaln.t Notre Dame." Thl. Is one way of describing the entlro cadet corp.' attitude till. week. The Army conches have been trying to warn the boy. for dny. that Notre Dame ha. all the physical equipment to knock Iholr ear. off Saturday. But the player, and the students Just won't believe 'em. Thl. may be a .light backfire from the spirit and morale Red Blalk has injected Into the happiest Army grid situation in years. It may mean that tha fellow have Imbibed Red's git-up-ond-go not wisely but too well, for the hopped-up grldders end the student corps are looking on the hlgh-and-mighty Irish as lust another ball club, The players have laughed off Red's pointed remarks that on comparative analysis the South Bend athletes, in weight, speed and tha scrambling of such operators as Steve Juzwik and the much-feared Angelo Bertilll, should push tha Cadets off the un dofeatrd , pedestnl with the same resounding bump Humpty.

I mwmum ; Bill DeCorrevont, Sweiger Tangle in Saturday Clash By JAY VESSELS MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 29 (IP) A pair of yardage-minded ball earriera will be back trying for repeat performances when Min nesota and Northwestern tangle In one of the nation's football classics here Saturday. They are Bill DeCorrevont, one-time victim of too many nice worda with the wildcats, anay Minnesota', rock-ribbed line de flator, Bob Sweiger.

In that game, he further mangled a badly mangled Minnesota sea son, by .printing aome 80-odd yard fur a touchdown that pro vided a 14-7 victory margin. Laat year It waa Swelger's turn. In tight tussle at Evans ton, with tha Western confer ence title at stake, it was Swei ger who punched through the Wildcats' forwards twice for touchdowns that set up the final 13-12 win for the Gophers.
