undefeated record of one moro Pa

Coach BUI Bpauldlng's unbeaten U.
O. L. A. Bruins tangle with "Pop"
Warner's formidable, though slightly
crestfallen, Cardinals of Stanford at
Olympic stadium In Los Angeles Sat
urday. In spite of the Bruins' clean slate,
experts along the coast who are still
In the expertlng business after last
Saturday's Stonford-U. B. C. game,
venture the opinion the Cnrdlnaln
will deTeat their southern opponents
and that, after the contest, the Uni
versity of Southern California Trojans
will occupy the conference top posi
tion alone. .
Bruins the fnilcnlogrt
The Bruins go Into the game as
underdogs largely because of the losn
of Joe Keeble, their star fullback and
one of the coast's leading scorers, who
Coach Spauldlng has said will be out
of the contest with an Injured arm.
The Cardinals, on the other band, will
be at practically full strength for
the game.
Stanford's one defeat of the present
season occurred last Saturday at the
hands of the Trojans, 13 to 0. The
other games the Cardinals have won
by Comfortable margins. The Bruins,
however, could only eke out a 0 to 0
win over Idaho and an even narrower
12 to 7 victory over Oregon.

along the rest of the conference front.
Washington State will meet Montana

No Over-Emphasis
With This Guard
By O. W. "lied" Keveirnce
(Written For The Associated Press)
Charles B. "Gus" Dorals, athletic
director and head football coach at
the University of Detroit, tells an in
teresting yarn to prove football Is not
over -emphasized.
"Qus Ruhlln, a Dig guard, was
the man I have In mir.d. On the
cvo of one of our most Important
games a few seasons ago, our reg
ular right guard was Injured, and
white Z started him in the game,
I knew he wouldn't last long.
"Huhlin was his substitute and
I tried to Impress on him that a
lot of responsibility for our victory
rested on: his shoulders. I gave
him a 'pep talk that would have
melted a heart of stone.
"Sure enough, our regular guard's
injured leg gavo way In the second
quarter of one of the most excit
ing games I ever have seen. When
I found thnt my star guard wns
through, I yelled to Ruhlln to get
olf his sweater and go In. To my
surprise, he didn't make any move
to comply.
"Then I hurried down to where
ho waa sitting, and I found out why
ho hadn't Jumped when his big
chnnco for glory came. He was
sound asleep. In spite of all the
yelling, and I had to shake him
to wnke him up.

You may hear more about Johnny
Grady, weight 158 pounds, from Som-)
ervllle, T.tss., and left halfback on '
Team "C" of the Harvard varsity foot- j
ball squad. I
Harvard's head coach Eddie Casey, j
says Grady Is one or the finest natural i
ball-carriers ho has ever seen, al
though tho fact Is that Johnny, a j
senior, never played football of any i
kind before this year. '' (
Grady got on the squad by rea
son of playing tennis with ,one of
Casey's assistants last summer. Tho
coach sensed an unusual gift for foot
work In the way Grady covered a ten
nis court. He asked Johnny, Just for
fun. to come out for practice and see
how ho liked ,the gridiron sport.
That's how It started and the
usually conservative Casey will tell
you now that things happen when
Grady carries the hall as an under
study for the powerful Jack Crlck
ard. Crlckard helps soften up tho
opposition under tho Harvard sys
tem, then Pcscosolido. Locke and
Grady gallop In. Grady has a nat
ural change of pace plus raro
speed. He directs his own inter
ference besides manifesting a gift
for timing his movements to avoid
enemy tacklers.
If this Isn't the groundwork for
another Fnmk Mcrrlwell story, It
will be sufficient at least for to
day's chapter.

FOUt "KKV" MEN'
"Most every football team," Head
Coach Casey told a gathering of
football folks at the Harvard Club
of New York, "depends on three or
four key men to sustain any kind
of successful plan. An Injury to
any of these often will explain
why a team suddenly slumps or falls
to recover Its usual stride.
"At -Harvard we rely on four men
to keep the balance. They are Hardy,
220-pound left tackle; Esterly, run
ning guard; Captain Hagcman, right
end, and Jack Crlckard, left half
back They hold the key to our at
tack and defense."
Irn Hardy of Minneapolis very
likely Is the best football guard In
tho east, if not as good as any in
tho... country,, including the re
nowned Bill Corbus of Stanford.
The Crimson lineman handles his
weight easily.
CAN'T It !: PLACE FOOTBALL
Harvard and Yale, incidentally,
havo no Idea of pursuing the idea
of curtailing their intercollegiate
gridiron schedules. The Jiew ath
letic administration at New Haven
shares with Bill Bingham, Harvard's
athletic director, the conviction that
it takes big-game gate receipts to sus
tain the widely developed sports pro
grams. "It's useless to talk of commercial
ism In football unless some way is
found to replace the money derived
from our gate receipts," says Bingham.
