Southern California's strength will be materially weakened by Ihe loss of Johnny Baker, stellar running guard who was Injured in thr St. Mary's game. Doctois liave definitely pul Baker on the shelf for tne game, ao Coach Jones has been experimenting with guards all week. Aaron Rosenberg, giant tackle, has looked good in Baker's berth and played guard on the frosh team last year, lie is expected to start in hia new position and If the Troy offense clicks like it should, wtll remain I here until Baker is back la the fold.
As lor the oilier guard Job lively battle is being wuged be tween Byron Gentry, Frank Wll ll&mson and Larry Stevens, with Gentry favored to start.

ARBELBIDE FAVORED Garrett Arbelbide, who Is being closely pressed by Ford Palmer for the starting call at light end, Is favored slightly to open against the Beavers, although both will undoubtedly see plenty of action before the long shadows creep across tbe gridiron. Ray Sparling has the left post nailed down and may occasionally be seen ln the role of a pass receiver or ball carrier.
Tay Brown at left tackle and Erny Smith at tight tackle are logical choices for first duty. Both have been showing plenty of fight during practice this week and will be counted on to help stem the heavy Oregon State backs when they come pounding against the line.

Senator Borah Attacks Moves For Repeal Of Prohibition Law
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1—(l'P)- Senator William E. Borah of Idaho, u Republican pj*er who is sometime* a problem to those who void a Mralght ticket, returned to Washington today and issued a formal statement which gave hla vlewa on a number of matters but left people guessing as to his thoughts on the political situation.
Economy, taxes, prohibition, tin * fundamentally wrong. None of the
farm board, and the debt moratorium were commented on lo his statement, but the senator would say nolhing as to hia present stand on the renomlnatlon of President Hoover.
Borah did not "see anything in these proposals about referenda and beer and kindred propositions,'' and continued:
"They would not settle the ques tion al issue. There is just oue proposition with reference io prohibition, it seems to me. and thst Is, repeal or nol repeal, lf the 18th amendment Is wrong ,it la
proposals reach the heart of the controversy. They would settle nothing. The 18tb amendment is In the const)tulion and It seems to me the sole question Is: Do the American people want to take it out of the constitution?”
The farm board, he said, should be abolished unless ils policies were altered, il never was intended, he said, that t*ie board should try lo stabilize grain prices as it did, by buying and holding Indefinitely millions of bushels; and he thought its policies of farm cooperation rather bad.
