Another impact of the war on
sports will ba evident next Sat
urday when tho University of
Oregon holds Its annual crew
race against tho University of
California on the Oakland
estuary.
Tho Huskies will hove to row
a borrowed boat.
Coach Al Ulbrlckson doesn't
know what this will do to tho
Husky crew, onrsmcn being u
temperomental lot by tho tlmo
own shells and thcro probably
won't bo a dime's worth actual
structural difference. But you
know how tho boys can get a
notion In their heads "
Sun Francisco sports writers
show no enthusiasm over tho
recently- announced double
round-robin football schedule
whereby tho California confer-
enco members play each other
twico and pass up tho northern
schools. Not that the bay
scribes show any disposition to
stnnd up for the northern teams.
What gripes them U that tho
California arrangement leaves
tho big California Independents
St. Mary's, Santa Clara, San
Francisco and Loyola out.
Tho Frisco folks would prefer
single games between the Cali
fornia conference members with
tho schedules filled in by games
with the big independents.
Northwest writers are growing
bitter about the break-away.
Wrote one: "In our humble opin
ion members of the southern di
vision virtually seceded from the
conference . . . That they disre
garded in every senso their ob
ligations to the parent organiza
tion and to six institutions mak
ing up tho northern division , . .
They wero motivated entirely
by solflshness in their action."

NEW YORK, May 10 VP)
Maybe this Isn't the best time to
be talking football, since spring
practice this year proved only
that nobody knows what football
will be like next fall . . . But
when you talk to Jack Lavelle,
eventually you talk football, and
generally you come up with
some fresh ideas on the subject
. . . Jack, you remember is the
old Notre Dame guard who
coaches a New York high school
team and in his spare time is
about the best grid scout in the
business.
The suggestion that "informal"
football may do away with a lot
of scouting brings a pained look
to Lavelle's round face . . .
"Scouting," he argues, "is what
makes football games good. It's
football's news service for the
quick dissemination of informa
tion. A scout sees some new
trick or a new defense, brings
back the dope and the first thing
you know all the coaches are
trying it if they have the ma
terial ... Do you know," Jack
asks, "I've actually had college
coaches ask me what was meant
by a looping line? . . . How long
do you think it would take them
to learn things without scout
ing?" THca No. 1 from our latest dis-
! cussion is that the college game
I ..... 1. J I 41
may not ue as oaa xiuui uie
spectator standpoint as a lot of
fellas think . . . The loss of
coaches and older players won't
spoil the game. There'll be less
finesse but a lot more enthus
iasm, says Jack.
