Collins shared the glory Of victory
with Red Faber and his team mates
but his light couldn't be hidden for
a single moment because he did things
out there on the battle field and did
them at the right time.
To an unbiased onloOker II seemed
unfair that the fans OF New York
should boob Collins when he came 20
the plate. He was made a target for
the disappointed Giant fans. but the
fact that they were "On him" did not
bother him for a moment. nor did Il
affect his playing
Collins's GOODNESS under fire was a
vivid contrast TO the way some Of the
other players took their medicine, and
IL reflected itself in the playing OF
the whole White S0I infield. In the
last game Heiuie Zimmerman hit a
fast bOunder 10 Collins in the sixth
inning with no one out and refused
TO even run IL out. This is an evi-
dence Of how the Giants respected
Collins. They figured he would get
everything that was hit within a mile
Of him. and he did.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 5.-War' s
threatened crimp in football is being
Strengthened more and more as the
days become shorter, and there's
crispness in the air. =
This is particularly true on the
Pacific Coast as the colleges are pre-
pairing to open and where football
scouts have been seeking material
among the young men not called in
the selective draft. :-....
At the University of California in
Berkeley Coach Andy Smith and his
assistant, Gus Zeigler, are already on
the job. The task of welding an ef-
ficient football machine out of al,
most raw material because of the
war has already started. Walter God.
don, star tackle. is among those who
have reported for practise. Gordon's
name is in the selective draft, but well
down the list, so it is believed he may
be in the game this year.
High schools in the San Francisco
bay district have already ushered in
rugby, but it will be we'll into October
before Stanford University starts the
ball rolling.
Hugo Bezdek, now manager of the
Pittsburg National baseball team, has
asserted that he will not give up col
lege athletics and has assured Oregon
football fans that he will be with
them this fall. Bezdek will haye to
construct a brand new team for the
University of Oregon as all his meI
of last season are now in various
branches of the United States fighting
service. .=...
The Oregon "Aggies" is expected to
be one OF the strongest football teams
on the coast this season as several
of last years stars are planning to re-
turn to college.
At the Washington State College
only two or possibly three of last
years regulars are expected to return
this fall
The Multnomah Amateur Athletic
club of Portland is to have a team this
year, but its personnel has not yet
been announced.
Dean cromwell, coach at the Uni
versity of Southern California, who
has been at his home in the north
west, is expected to return to his work
soon. Like other coaches throughout
the country Cromwell will have to
pick his men from new material.
Frank Malette, captain and quarter.
back last season, has sent word to
Cromwell that he will be in the game
again this year. -

ABBOTT IN REGATTA

The Healanis will miss Charles Alb.
bolt, who stroked the freshmen crew
last year to victory. Abbott left on
the Sherman for San Francisco, and
will then go to San Diego where he
will join the aviation corps. Abbott
is anxious to go to the front, and
hopes to arrive in France before the
year is out.
Abbott is one of the best oarsmen
who has appeared in local regattas,
and although he recently took up the
sport, the great work in plotting the
freshies to victory last year insured
him a place in the senior crew, had
he remained in Honolulu. Abbott and

Hikes across the country are be-
coming quite popular with DEBORAH
young men of late. OF course the

why they enjoy them. We are not

or not. Nevertheless last Sunday

husky young youths, Melvin Hutch
