players but managers. There
are men three deep for every
position but for manager.
Head Coach Joe Huston
and Coach Eldon Fix have
issued a plea for anyone in­
terested in working for the
good of the school and the
football team to contact them.
A junior manager is needed
to take charge of the junior
varsity. He would travel with
that team, and it's equipment
would be in his care.
Also needed are four men to
assist the senior manager in
the locker room and on the
field. .

·As Opening Fray Saturday
By John Hoefling
Lewis and Clark's football team-1948 edition-will be un­
veiled this coming Saturday night when Coach Joe Huston's
charges tackle the Missionaries of Whitman College.
J effersdn nigh school field wilt be the scene of the first game
of thE! seasoh for the Pioneers who are rated as a darkhorse in
the forthcomi~ Northwest Conference title race. Last year Whit­
man held the locals to a 6 to 6 tie at Walla Walla.
After two weeks of intensive training on Fisher field under
the watchful eyes of Coaches Huston, Eldon Fix, and Warren
Smith, the local squad is rounding into shape. The return of 16
lettermen plus many promising newcomers has greatly strength ­
ened the chances of the Orange and Black.
The Lewis and Clark football------- -------­
ers, operating out of the T for­
mation installed by Huston last
year, promise to have a well-bal­
anced attack with both ground
and aerial offensives.
Competition for the starting
berths is so keen that Huston has
not yet listed the probable line­
up. There will be a depth though
in each position that has not
shown up in the last two years.
Heading the list of returnees
is Hal Ellmers, the Pioneers'
leading ground gain~r and scorer
the last two years, and Bob
Sweet, stellar guard for the past
two seasons.
Monahan Back
Besides Ellmers at halfback,
there are lettermen Jack Mona­
han and Bill Preble. Also show­
ing up well are Jerry Monahan,
Clarke Anderson , Francis Cox,
and speed boys M~rlin White and
Dick Walker. Others listed are
Herb Williams and Bob Misley,
savvy.
Dick Nemyre. 189, returning
letterman at this spot . . . good
kicker and throws sharp clothes­
line pass.
Ed Paul, 174, lettered at half
last year . . . will see enough
act'ion . . . good hands and spots
pass receivers well.
Left Half
Clarke Anderson. 176, trans­
ferred from Oregon State . . .
showing plenty in pre-season ...
good pass snarer.
Dick Walker, 165, former
Washington prepper who will be
Pioneer break-away. threat ...
very fast in finding the open
field.
Jack Monahan. 141, the reg­
ular jackrabb it of the outfit . ,.r
lightest gent on field and danger­
ous at all times.
Righi Half
Hal Ellmers, 146, senior, all­
conference last year . . . back for
his last year and boomed for
Little Al!-American . . . tough to
bring down.
Bill P11eble. 162, went great as
a line-backer last year ... hard
~o,ker.
Merlin White, 187, has been a
savage tackler in scrimmage . . .
very fast for big man.
Jerry Monahan. 143, brother of
Jack, and transferred . from P. U.
. . . a defensive standout.
Fullback
Cla11ence Baisch, 198, "Rube"
was a sensation at times last
year . . . runs straight up-and­
down at all times and strictly a
power runner . . . tough as they
come, ready for any rough going.
Stan Blair, 181, a terrific
ground gainer last year who
made his own holes in the oppos­
ing line . . . backs up the line in
great style.·
John Farber, 175, a good run­
ning back, but look who he has to
beat out. Larry Barbour and Jim Haskett.
At fullback there is letter win­
ner. Rue ben Baiscli, hard hitting,
fast, and one of finest fullbacks
in the conference last year. Also
at that position is Stan Blair, last
year's varsity halfback now
moved to full, and John Farber,
inexperienced but with great
possibilities.
Transfer Aids Backs
Quarterback finds three play-' ers vying for the starting posi-
tion. Dick Nemyre and Ed Paul
are returning from last year.
Both are good passers and ball
handlers. Nemyre did the punt­
ing' for LC last year. One of the
finest new prospects on the team
is Fred Wilson, transfer from the
U of 0. He is ep. excellent passer
and kicker, is smart and has the
ability to spark the team.
Bob Pollard leads the center
list, followed by former jayvee
Guy Gerber, Rans Sprinkling and
Dale Tomlinson. ·Pollard lettered
at. end in 1946 but his fine de-­
fensive work and size makes him
ideal for a T formation center.
Sprinkijng is a former all-city
center from Grant.
Wcrlker Moves to Guard
Bob Sweet heads the guard po­
sition with his all-around good
play. Backing him up are Bob
Walker, moved to guard after let­
tering at center last year;
Bob Brending , Bill Taylor, and
Norm Cramer from last year's
jayvee team. Nowcomers stand­
ing out ai:e Jim King and Bob
Post and Miles Edwards.
Lettermen Cliff Wells, Eldon
Stender, and Roger l!usband are
returning tackles. Also at tackle
are Wencil Blazek, 286 pounds,
Don Hagen, Ray Cramer, and Bill
Cox.
End positions are blessed with
good def~nsive and offensive
players. Slated to see action are
"lettermen Bill Bell, Art Bakke,
and Pete Hahn. Others figuring in
the team's plans are Lee -Miesen,
Dick Larson, Bud Hosford, and
Chuck AHen. Allen is a place-.
kick'ing specialist.

Of Cash Need
Veterans attending school or
college this fall under the G. I.
Bill are remindecl by the Veter­
ans administration to be prepared
to finance themselves f r om
45 to 60 days before they receive
their first' subsistence checks.
The VA explained that heavy
fall enrollments · and the large
volume of work in setting up nec­
essary records will cause some
delay in the issuance of first sub­
sistence checks to student-veter­
ans.
In most cases, veterans will get
their first subsistence checks
from VA on November 1. In a
few instances, however , checks
may be delayed longer. Initial
VA payments will include all
subsistence due, retroactive . to
date of enrollment. -Mu Phi Epsilon, women's mu­
sic honorary, represented by Pat
Gillam, and the Amphions, with
Otto Roth as manager will be
regular participants in t~e radio
series, as will the Drama and
Sp~i:ech departments. Warren Da­
vis, a regular on former pro­
grams, will act as announcer.
Production plans are still be­
ing made, and there is still time
for those students who wish to
obtain practical experience in
script ~riting, rndio production ,
and radio acting to contact either
Mr. Bishop or Mr. Burlingame
and help with the first program.
Students are invited to attend
the broadcasts .from the station's

Congratulations, Delts
Last Saturday evening the downtown section of Port­
land was surprised when a rootin ', tootin' football rally
serpentined noisily down its usually genteel streets. The
Pioneer motif was carried out quite completely , from the
old covered wagon to orange and black crepe streamers and
pennants on cars crammed with exuberant rooters. The
spirit shown was something to be seen and envied by larger
schools. The L&C gang's fresh spontaneity made its loyalty
to the alma mater obvious to the on)ookers.
To make a rally as successful as this, takes planning
and hard work, especially when it is necessar y _to go. to
Benson high school to get a pep band. The credit for this
good work goes to the Delta Tau Rho fraternity . Congratu­
lations to an alert, ambitious fJ,"at. Let's see the rest of the
frats keep up the good work.

small handful of G. I.'s and I, in
the interest of class unity, have
pledged myself to support the de­
cision. But I would like to take
this last opportunity to place my
views on record.
Until Tuesday, I was proud to
go here. I bragged about it. Here,
I told my friends, is one school
where the freshman ~s not hazed
nor discriminated against. Here,
in keeping with our tradition of
friendliness, the freshie is taken
in, treated .as an equal, made to
feel at home. Lewis and Clark,
I bragged, is a liberal school, a
forward moving school.
But today-today, I am not
proud of Lewis and Clark. I hang
my head in shame that my be­
loved Alma Mater has seen fit, in
a frantic chase after that willow­
the wisp, "school spirit," has seen
fit to ape the Worst features of
the older colleges. School spirit
is good, but if these medieval and
undemocratic "traditions" are the price we must pay, Lewis and
Clark would be wiser to forego
school spirit. ·
Pioneer! Can we ever use that
name again, without laughing 'at
our own hypocrisy? It may be
that this new "tradition" will pro­
mote the desired spirit in others.
But as for me-as for me, I am
not proud of my Alma Mater
any more.

To the Editor:
Orchids this week go to Delta
Ta Rho for their outstanding ef­
ficiency with the Rally last Sat­
urday night. We_of Lewis and
Clark have never seen so much
enthusiasm and spirit as the Delts
promoted. Let's have more of the
same.
The Mustangs.
Deai Editor:
I would like to express by
thanks and appreciation to the
committee h e a d s, committee
members, faculty and mainte­
nance personnel who gave both
time and 'effort to making the
K~ckoff dance a success. I only
w1sh they could be financially
reimb~rsed for time and effort
but a big thanks will have to .do "h ' t anks everyone," real lots.

Brame Continues· Story of Travels;
Babes; Burros Enter Students' Saga
By Dic:k Brame
The burro is one of the most
delightful things in Mexico. He
is everywhe re. Many times we
looked out our window and saw
one standing at the curb with a
load of com or wood (dried cac­
tus bark or maybe mesquite
twigs) waiting patiently for its
master. The most striking fea­
ture of the burro is a white,. al­
mond-sh aped outline around the
eyes which give it a wi~tful look
that is really appealing, not only
wistful, but sad' and patient­
and stirs up the urge which
makes peo.ple want to pet little
dogs and children.
Wolves. Too •••
· Many 9f the older people seem
rather simple and unsophisticat­
ed. The young group are much
like the teen-agers here. They
t?o, make fun of their elder~,
and of the "squares." They stand
on street corners and watch. the
members of the opposite sex
pass by and have even learned
to add the American whistie to
the usual call "Que muchacha! '
("What a babel")
Probably the most exciting
part of the trip was from Laredo,
Texas, to Saltillo. There were a
group of four from Le,wis and Clark. Paul Luenow, Spanish in­
structor, and I .in one car, and
Sheldon Chambers and Gene
Wirtz in Sheldon's car. We had
left Portland at different times
and went by different routes to
Laredo, Texas. Gene and Shel­
don through California and Ari­
zona, and Mr. Luenow and I
through Idaho, Utah, and part of
Colorado . It took roughly six
days to get to Laredo, where we
met.
Mexic:an Preview
Laredo on the Texas side is a
good preview of Mexico, and isn't
much better than most previews.
The popul ~tion is probably at
least half Mexican, and increas­
ingly so closer to the river. The
Rio Grande (or Rio Brava-as
the Mexicans call it) is nothing,
but the bridge is. The bridge is
the dividing line between the
pseudo-Mexican to the pseudo­
American. Also at either end are
the customs officers. The town of
Nuevo Laredo is mainly sustained
by the tourists from the United
States who want to visit Mexico
in one day. It is comparable to
other border towns like Juarez
or Tijuana, and is just as far dif­
ferent from most' of Mexico as
Seaside, Oregon,. or the Pike in

Sloppy Copy
By Ji,m Harris
IJIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIJIIIJ~
At the end of every spring
term thousands of students all
over the country find themselves
in a very enviable position; viz.
unemployed. Sounds good dOesn't
it. BUT ... you can't be comfort­
ably idle on nothing! As I soon
found out.
Following the multitude s, I
hied myself forth to the recruit­
ing station for the army of the
unemployed. Deducing that the
word entrance on the door meant
the place. to enter, I entered the
USES feeling as though I had
just inherited a fortune.
"What can I 'do for you, young
man?"
"Ah, kind sir, I'd like some in­
formation on--." ·
"Information? Desk 136 in the
81st division of the west wing."
"Is that where 1--?"
"Yes."
I kept up a good scout's pace
and made it in a half hour-to
the end of the line. After a brief
wait of an hour and a half, I was
sagging in front of a desk behind
which sat a very important look­
ing young lady. She was putting
her hair up in pincurls.
;'Well?" she hissed through a
moutl}ful of bobby pin:;.
';I would like some inf--."
"Oaf. you want the west wing."
Luckily I had but that morn-

I finally panted up to a
marked "information."
''1 would like some .inf--."
"Why come here?" he chuck­
led.
"There was .a guy downstairs
by the entrance who said that I
could get some information here."
·"Short and fat? Heh, heh
twinkle in his eye? Hee heee."
"Yeah. Yeah, that's the guy."
"Ohh, that was Pemberton ."
He was practically convulsed.
"Pemberton?"
"Yeah, he sends everyone
here. Hah haaah. Yeah, good ole
Pemberton . Keeps us in stitcl1es
'round here. Hey, Pete, comere.
Here's another on!=!." Pete ro<1re1:l,
"Pemberton," he said, 'is

"What's all that, man," I asked.

Kan't find work. Section 8 means
that you ain't ate for days and S

','You are obviously unfamiliar
with government procedure . You
see to simpley things, we spell
the names backwards."
The sundial on my ~xplorers
ring said time for chow and my
rations were running low so I
hit out for home.
This procedure went on for
four weeks till I had filled out
all the forms·and stood ui all the
lines. Come St. Swithens day i
am expecting my first check, if
I'm lucky.
Long Beach, California, is from
most of the United States.
We didn't stop in Nu~vo ·La­
redo, but rushed on to Monterrey,
Nuevo Leon, where Mr. Luenow
was stopping for the summer
with a friend, Manuel Espinoza,
who teaches English at the Uni­
versity of Nuevo Leon. Gene,
Sheldon, and I went on from
Monterrey to Saltillo, fifty miles
and three thousand feet higher
by ourselves ,, and feeling a little
skeptical about our Spanish being
enough to even find our way.

Sport Shorts Whits Edged By Pioneers
By Hoefling
Much needed help has come to the local football squad in the form of· Chuck Allen. a freshman end. Allen is a point after touch­down place-kicker and he proved his worth in the Whitman game by making good two out of two attempts . Last year the Pioneers were held to two ties because of the lack of an extra point spe­
cialist.
Allen's two points contributed greatly to this the first confer­ence win for Coach Joe Huston. In 1946 this same player kicked an extra· poini that enabled Grant high school to take the state prep ch~pionship. Coach of Grant at that time was Joe Hu'ston,
LC head mentor now.
Two. of the staunchest football rooters this college has are Dr. Overmeyer and Mr. Bull. They can be heard on the sidelines at both practices and games literally yelling their heads off for the. home team. Mr. Bull was especially loud last week as it .was the first game he had ever seen the Pioneers win. . . . Even his pipe seemed to be putting up an extra large amount of steam.
. . . Keep it up, ''Lefty."
Lewis and Clark's slugging baseball outfielder, Clarence Kaufman: should be in good condition for next spring's season. He spent the summer playing ball with a Washington team, the North State Indians. He had a good year, both at the p1ate and afield. Currently he ·is vying for a position on the junior varsity
football team.
This editor would like to introduce his sports reporters for the coming year. Tom Shore will be covering junior varsity foot­ball this fall, while, Norm Prihar will have intramural · sports· as his beat. Herb Williams. former Multnomah college sports editor, will have a general sports roundup .... Anyone having any sports information they wish published should see one of these writers, as at times they may be unable to cover certain events.
'Injuries have begun to· plague the Orange and Black gridders. although most of the players will be able to aee at least limited '
' action. This weekend will see the return to the lineup of Bill Bell who has been sidelined for more than a week with a sprained ankle.
Ranli Sprinkling suffered a leg injury last weekend against Whitman and his status is uncertain at the moment. Art Bakke's shoulder has been slowing him down and he will undoubtedly be out of the starting eleven against Vanport.

Lady Luck and an accurate right foot combined to give the Lewis and Clark gridders a close 14 to 13 win over the Whitman college M~ssionaries last Saturday night at Jefferson field.
Scoring their first conference win in the history of this col­lege, the Pioneers came from behind in the last 2lh minutes to tie the game up with a touchdown. The accurate foot belonged to Chuck Allen, LC kicking specialist, who split the uprights to put the locals on top.

Gridders Beware .
A college player was so eager
to make a · showing before his
parents who were in 'the stands
that in the dying seconds of the
game the coach finally sent him
on the field. In his eagerness to
give his all for his Alma Mater
he stumbled and fell flat on his
face, just as the timer's gun
went off to signal the end of the
game . . . "Oh-h-h," his mother
shouted, "they've shot him!" The teams 11nd managers en­
tered so far are Lambda Phi Ep­

ager. The Epsilon team won the
championship last year and was
