BEAVERS 11.33, DUCKS 10.79
Oregon's hot and cold Web
foot! and Oregon State's anxious
Orange collide Saturday in the
44th renewal of their ancient
"Civil war" and this year there's
more at stake than the champion
ahlp of the South Willamette
valley.
The Bearers can probably
elneh the Rose Bowl bid with
rictory. A lots throws the
race Into a scramble again
with Stanford's Indians fa
vored for the invitation on the
: basis of won and loss records.
' : The Ducks have the unhappy
alternative of either defeat or
what amounts to disgrace. A
loss will give 'em four defeats in
regular round-robin play. A win
may put Stanford into the Pasa
dena saucer a situation which
will cut the heart of both Ore
gon and Staters.
This week we've forgotten our
usual predictory doggerel in fa
vor of a galloping poll of local
former Oregon and Oregon
State students.
Wa questioned 12 ex-Oregon
Staters and 17 ex-Oregons. Of
the 12 former Bearers. 12 for
mer Beavers said the current
Beavers would win.
Of the 17 ex-Ducks. 16 of
'am predicted an Oregon vic
tory. The lone dissenter was
John Eblnger who foresaw a
. 19-13 Oregon State win.
Biggest margin was foreseen
by Lee Jacobs, KFJl's medium,
who saw a 26-7 spanking admin
istered by the Webfoots. Lee
conditioned his prediction with
the statement that IF the Ore
gons are in top shape. Other
wise he forecast only a very
slight edge for the Ducks.
. The average Oregon Stater
was more confident than the
average Joe Oregon. He indi
cated the score would be 12.42
to S.66 for Orange.
Jo Oregon also saw two
touchdowns for his team but
conceded the Beaver a touch
down, the point afterward and
a Meld goal besides. He fig
ured the Webfoots would peel
the Orange at 14.89 to 10.23.
The average prognostleator.
Oregon and Oregon Staters
together, predicted the score
would be Oregon State 11.33,
Oregon 10.79.
Oldest limb-climber was J. I.
Beard, Oregon State 97, who
gazed back througn me years
and came up with a 13-6 score
for the Beavers.
'Youngest was Adolph Zamsky,
Oregon '40, who saw it 19-13 for
the Ducks.
Individually, it went like this:

Oregon-Oregon State Grid
Tickets Sold Out; Beavers
Favored Over Crippled Ducks
Wet Weather
Predicted
For Clash
EUGENE, Nov. 28 VP) At
least half of the 20,500 football
fans fortunate enough to hold
'high-premium" tickets for Sat
urday's Oregon-Oregon State
classic will get wet, according
to weather forecasts made here
this morning. But regardless of
weather conditions and the in
evitable poor footing of Hay-
ward field, the lighter weight
OSC eleven continues as a 5-to-4
betting favorite to win this 45th
meeting between the two tradi
tional intra-state rivals.
Eugene hotels and local tourist
cabins have been reserved for
weeks, and latecomers have been
forced to seek accommodations
as far north as Junction City
and south to Cottage Grove.
There were 16 tickets still on
sale when the office closed last
night, but these "horsehide
ducats" were gobbled up early
this morning. There was little
speculation, but mid-field tickets
were selling at $15 per pair.
There will be no general admis
sion for the game here tomor
row. The Beavers, with their first
Rose bowl bid in history within
their grasp, will be favored to
avenge last year's 20-0 upset
registered by the Ducks at Cor
vallis and post their 14th victory
in this 48-year-old series. Ore
gon has won 24 and seven have
ended in deadlocks.
Through the assistance of Col
onel Bill Hayward, track coach
and retired trainer, Tex Oliver
is expected to be able to use
most of his "cripples." Hayward
has fashioned special braces and
splints for the injured Webfoots.
Only Ray Segale, regular guard,
and Bill Regner, regular end,
are expected to be out of ,the
starting lineups. The entire
squad is suffering from injuries,
but few are other than those
naturally accumulated during
a heavy schedule such as the
Webfoots have played.

Sunday Punch
Kayoes Heavy
SAN JOSE. Calif., Not. 28
(IP) An unexpected flurry of
hard blows last night excited
Jo Louis, heavyweight box
ing champion, so much that
he knocked out George Giam
bastiani, Los Angeles heavy
weight, in the third round of
a scheduled four-round exhi
bition at municipal auditor
ium. The business blow, a left
hook flush to Giambastianl's
jaw, came after 1 minute and
24 seconds of the third round.
The excitement developed
after two rounds of colorless
boxing in which Louis shuf
fled slowly around the ring
toying with his sparring part
ner. Suddenly in the third
round, Giambastianl decided
to exchange a few blows with
the champion. Ha did and Jo
retaliated with a Sunday
punch.
"In the excitement I slip
ped on too many in. I'm
awfully sorry." the champion
apologised later.

New Pilot
Of Phillies
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 28 (UP)
John (Hans) Lobert, a stocky.
redfaced veteran of 39 years in
baseball, signed a one-year con
tract Wednesday as manager of
the Philadelphia Phillies, peren
nial cellar team of the National
league.
Lobert, brown-haired, blue-
eyed and of German extraction,
described the moment of the an
nouncement in President Gerald
Nugent's office as the "greatest
thrill" of his baseball career.
Thus at 60 he reached a goal
set when his playing days as one
of the game's fastest third base
men ended in 1917. He succeed
ed J. Thompson (Doc) Prothro,
soft-spoken former pilot of Mem
phis and Little Rock in the
Southern association. Prothro
came here three years ago, suc
cessor to Jimmy Wilson, but was
unable to lift the Phils from the
league basement.
Nugent made no official an
nouncement of salary terms but
it was understood Lobert would
receive 510,000.
MEMPHIS, Term., Nov. 28 VP)
James Thompson (Doc) Prothro
is back in Memphis as manager
of the Chicks' Southern Associ
tion Baseball club apparently
to stay.
The 48-year-old former mana

a financial interest in the club
and would be a vice president.

Campus Fever
Soaring at
Corvallis
CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 28
(IP) Campus fever began to soar
today in anticipation of Satur
day's football gmno at Eugene
between the possible Rose Bowl
ers, Oregon Slate, and their final
hurdle, the University of Ore
gon.
'Beat Oregon" signs appeared
on cars, windows and as cut-off
lines in the Daily Barometer,
student newspaper, but Rose
Bowl talk was hushed.
The traditional rivalry be
tween the two schools was all
the students needed to work up
enthusiasm, and talk of bowl
possibilities was with a crossed
finger tone and a weather eye
out for' Coach Lon Stiner. who
has frowned on its mention in
his presence.
CORVALLIS. Ore.. Nov. 28 (IP)
Only by a slight flicker did offi
cialdom at Oregon State recog
nize the trouncing Texas gave
to Texas A. & M. yesterday as
having a bearing on the Rose
Bowl.
Coach Lon Stiner gave his usual
laconic answer to all Rose Bowl
talk: "We play Oregon Satur
day." Bud Forrester, publicity chief,
admitted that he had heard a bit
of Rose Bowl talk on the cam
pus and elsewhere and that may
be Texas would be in the pic
ture but this comment was
strictly unofficial.
"In the minds of many sports
fans it unquestionably alters the
outlook," he said, "no matter
which coast team is chosen."
"We aren't in the Rose Bowl
yet." he added. "We first have
to beat Oregon. Then we have
to be chosen by the faculty rep
resentatives. It's still a long
road."

Abrams Favored Over Zale
In Garden Bout Friday
By JACK CUDDY
NEW YORK, Nov. 28 (UP) Georgia Abrams, the bouncing
bo'sun's mate, is favored at 8-5 to beat tough Tony Zale of Gary,
Ind., tonight at the Garden and thereby become the first undis
puted world middleweight champion in a decade.
4iitix uiivuiufi Jiuiama w.
naval air corps is favored over
hard-hitting Tony, the National
Boxing association's 160-pound
ruler, because of his speed and
boxing brilliance. Also because
of his three non-title victories
over Billy Soose, who recently
vacated the New York section
of the middleweight throne.
However, Zale Is receiving
heavy support, particularly from
Chicago sportsmen, because of
his punch and stamina, coupled
with the facts Abrams cuts easily
and is tackling his first 15-round
bout. The championship distance
may be difficult for Abrams be
cause he has shown a tendency
to tire in the closing sessions of
10-rounders.
This bout will clear up the
muddled middleweight division
which hain't had a universally
recognized champion since Mick
ey Walker out-grew the class and
relinquished the title In 1931 to
parading in Philadelphia Munici
pal stadium at 12:19 p. m. behind
a 75-picce band. The gray-clad
cadet regiment of approximately
1800 will follow.
Navy's 41 grldders will - be
given a rousing send-off by the
regiment at 6:30 tonight when
they entrain for Manufacturer's
Country club, near Philadelphia.
They will work out at the
Temple university stadium to
morrow. Stop!

Career Tomorrow Night
By GAIL FOWLER
SEATTLE, Nov. 28 (Mar
vin "Tommygun" Tomniervlk,
1940 little All-America halfback
at Pacific Lutheran college near
Tacoma, Wash., will wind up his
senior year as the greatest total
offensive gainer in minor college
football.
American football statistical
bureau figures released today
show Tommervik has gained
1762 yards from passing and
rushing in eight gnmcs, and still
has a game left against College
of the Pacific at Tacoma tomor
row night in which he hopes to
be the first to amass 2000 yards
in one season.
Despair
Whether ho hits 2000 or not,
it still will be a Horatio Alger
success story, because four years
ago as a freshman, his coach,
Cliff Olson, clucked in despair
at his awkward efforts.
Tommervik rushed the ball
652 yards in 110 plays to rank
sixth in rushing offense, and
completed 61 of 120 passes to
rank third among the passers in
completions, although he boasts
the highest pass yardage total
1110 yards.
His nearest total offense com
petitors have closed out their sea
son so nobody can overtake him.
J. C. Mceks, halfback from East
Texas State, came in second with
1596 yards in eight games, but
Injuries kept him from his team's
final fray.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 28 (IP) This city came down today
with its annual attack of Army-Navyitls and brother this year
it's bad.
Hotels bulged at the seam, gold braid was a penny a yard as
the first of 100.000 fans arrived to find out what happens (and
anything can) when a two-ocran navy encounters a lightning
fast Army rumored to be specially armor-plated for the occasion.
They'll get the answer tomorrow at municipal stadium, but at
