If Danny O'Leary plays at all, it will be with a broken rib carefully safeguarded against further injury. Courtney Smith, end, has been shifted back to fullback, with Vic Rivers, ertawhile guard, going to end. Elmer Felton, a new man, is being broken in at guard. Coach Soukup has one other alternative, and that is to use Frankie Wilson, diminutive basketball star, at end.

They outweighed us, had experienced men.and had a.powerful attack. Real, honest gloom emanated from the lips of the coach, team and stu- dents. We were in for a licking, and Dobie knew it, He was never nearer righ in his life, as the game ended in a 6 to 6 tie. Washington State should have won that game. They had a better team, wero heavier and had more experience. They didn't have Do- bie, tho. He never worked on a bunch of players like he did on us that week prior to the game, He made us play above our heads sim- ply by putting the fear of death in- to our hearts. He called us cow- ards, quiters, and. made us believe we lived only for that game. A field goal and a safety was scored by each team, something that has very seldotn happened in any game, Dobie was glad when the game was over, but not half so glad as the players, as none of us wanted to face Dobie after a defeat.

That was a sweet yic- tory for Washington. Dobie felt pretty good and after the game said we could break training for one night. These were his instructions: “You fellows played a rotten game today, and you're mighty lucky, To- night you can each smoke once and have a good time, but any fellow who isn't in bed at 10 o'clock will get kicked off the squad.” Can you imagine having a good time in Bu- gene, Ore. and being compelled to get in bed at 10 o'clock on the night of a big game?
