CORVALLIS, Ore.. Dec. 7.
(AP) Paul J. Schissier, head
coach at Oregon State college, re
turned from the east today and
left shortly afterward for Los An
geles with C. A. Lodell. graduate
manager, and H. S. Rogers, chair
man of the board of control, to
attend the Pacific Coast confer
ence meeting. After the Oregon
State football team played Ford
ham and Detroit universities In
their recent Invasion of the east,
Schissier remained in the middle
west instead of returning with the
squad.
Schissier said he was surprised
to read of the resignation of Coach
Pop Warner of Stanford, and ex
pressed regret, declaring the
Coast conference will lose part of
Its national prestige with the de
parture of Warner.
The Oregon State coach denied
rumors that he had been offered
and was considering a coaching
berth at Fordham to succeed Ma
jor Cavenaugh, resigning.
LOS ANGELES. Dec. 7. (AP)
Coach Howard Harding Jones'
contract as football mentor at the
University of Southern California
was renewed today for a five-year
period. The old contract has an
other year to run.
In making the announcement,
Dr. Rufus B. von Kleinsmid,
president of the Trojan institu
tion, said the university wished to
express its appreciation for Jones'
"fine Influence and sportsman
ship as a coach as well as his abil
ity to turn out winning teams."
While no statement of salary
was made, it is understood the
new contract will call for the
am pay as the old one, which
expires late in 1933. It was gen
erally understood that this was
approximately $12,000 a year.
During his eight years as coach
at Southern California, Jones'
grid elevens have won 72 games,
lost 10 and tied 2. They have eith
er won or tied for the Pacific
Coast conference championship six
times In that period.
To date, Jones holds the im
pressive record of 144 victories
since he started coaching in 1908
against 37 defeats and 9 ties for
an .878 average.
An end at Yale, frcm which he
was graduated in .fune, 1908,
Jones coached at Syracuse, Yale,
Ohio State, Yale again. University
of Iowa, and Duke uriversity, be
fore coming to Southern Califor
nia In 1925. His teams won the
Big Ten championships at Iowa
In 1921 and 1922.

Developing new Attack is
Prospect Facing Keene;
Speed Requirements
The first attempt of Coach
'Spec" Keene of "Willamette
university to line up a tentative
varsity quintet and engage In
practice scrimmage, Wednesday
afternoon, demonstrated that if
he la going to have a contender In
the Northwest conference basket
ball race this season, there is a
lot of work to be done.
The tentative lineup consisted
of Burdett and Lemmon, for-
wards; Rieke, center; Hartley
and Connors, guards. This group
showed considerable individual
ability against two other outfits.
but the absence, to date, of the
rapid-fire attack which character
tied Bearcat teams prior to last
year, and which Keene is attempt
lng to resurrect this season, was
rather marked.
Last season, with a wealth of
big, men rather than the smaller,
speedier ones who performed
previously, Keene concentrated
on screen plays rather extensive
ly, but in view of the new rules
which put a premium on speed,
combined with his lack of a crew
of giants this season, he is forced
to return to rely upon speed
again.
Individually the men who form
ed the first string combination In
Wednesday's workout revealed
the necessary speed, but there
seemed to be a tendency to hesi
tate Just before breaking into
scoring territory, a hesitation
which repeatedly lost all of the
advantage gained by rapid prog
ress down the floor.
8ome of the other players who
showed considerable promise of
breaking into intercollegiate com
petition included Walt Erickson,
four-year football letterman who
has had little time to work at bas
ketball heretofore; Eggleston,
Manning, Northrup, Frantz and
Baldwin; in fact all of the players
now on the squad appeared to be
about equal in ability, and Keene
will have a hard Job reducing his
squad below its present size, 16,
without cutting off someone who
might prove valuable later In the
season.
OREGON STATE COLLEGE, '
Dec. 7 Orange vanity basket
ball players are rapidly getting In
condition for the pre-season
games listed for the Christmas
hmolldays. The Orangemen will
not take their usual barnstorming
tour through California this year
but will remain at home and play
several games with Independent
Portland ball clubs.
Although not a single return
Ins; letterman has played through
a full season, Coach Gill hopes to
build a first-class quintet around
Ed Lewis, a two-year letterman
center; Skeet O'Connell, letter
man forward; and Everett Davis,
Red MacDonald, and Carl Lench
itsky, lettermen guards.
Ed Lewis is the class of the
northwest at center when in good
physical condition. If he is able
to play through the season unin
jured he will boost the Orange
prospects considerably In their
pennant race. Other men out for
center are Fred Hill of Pendleton
and Harold Drew of Eugene.
Men who are showing possibil
ities at the guard positions are
Bob Lucas of Portland and Cliff
Parks of Milwaukie, sophomores;
Snowy Gustafson of Oakland,
Calif., and Ed Adams, of Santa
Ana, seniors.
For the forward positions Clar
ence James, transfer from the
University of Oregon; George
Hibbard, Molalla, and Merle Tay
lor, Corvallls, both of last year's
rook squad are given the Inside
edge.
The pre-season games for the
Beavers will begin with Willam

followed by Multnomah club De
cember 21, Union Oil December
22 and 23, all in Portland. The
Oilers play a return game In Cor

New "Technique'
In Punt-Snaring
Merely Accident
LINCOLN, Neb.. (AP)
When Chris Mathis, chief of the
"rabbit halfbacks" on the Uni
versity of Nebraska gridiron
squad, caught the fancy of fans
in a game with Kansas by snar
ing punts over his shoulder while
facing his own goal, experts mar
veled and Inquired of Coach Dana
X. Bible about the new technique
in safety play.
Mathls hadn't bobbled a single
one, despite his peculiar manner
of receiving, and the writers
scented something new. But Bible
explained it:
"Why, he only misjudged those
kicks and had to run back and
catch them that way!"
c
OACH HOWARD JONES
has rolled op an enviable
record since he took over the
coaching job at Southern California
some years back. On each and every
year he has managed to build up a
formidable football machine which
was able to ride through to a num
ber of glorious victories over fa
mous foes and traditional oppo
nents. This fall many experts thought
that Howard's prospects were not
so bright for a successful season on
the gridiron. Most of the outstand
ing stars of the famous 1931 Trojan
outfit had been lost by graduation.
It was felt that no team in football
history could lose such men as
Shaver, Pineteert, Baker, Arbel
bide, Musick and others and not feel
the deficit very keenly.
Coach Jones had to build up an
entirely new backfield, with the ex
ception of the quarterback posi
tion, which was brilliantly filled by
the experienced Orville Mohler.
Mohler was injured in the Stanford
game, however, and was lost to the
Trojans for the rest of the season,
but Coach Jones developed Homer
Griffith into almost as great a back
field threat as Mohler had been, so
Orvs loss was not felt as keenly as
might be expected.
Jones has a couple of truly great
tackles in Ernie Smith and Captain
Tay Brown; a brilliant running
guard in Aaron Rosenberg, and a
fine end in Ray Sparling. His "in
experienced" backfield is as for
midable as any in the country, and
the team as a whole seems aa pow
erful as the great 1931 aggrega
tion. Little Irving ("Cotton") War
barton, 150-pound sophomore quar
terback, has developed into a very
dangerous ball-carrier, and the
Notre Dame defense had better
watch out for him next Saturday.
Tes, sir; Old Magician Jones
seems to be able to pull great foot
ball players out of his hat every
year out at Troy. Stanford fans are
looking ahead to next season to gain
revenge on the Trojans, since
Southern California's 1933 mate
rial doesn't look so hot. But with
the miraculous Mr. Jones at the
helm, the Trojans are liable to be
as powerful as ever next year.

cuRTis:k
Just a case of the pot calling
the kettle black, mates; that's
our verdict concerning Mr. Sips.
(He's laid off as for a long
time so we won't call him Mrs.
Sippl any more.) fust yesterday
Sips gave Wayne Pettit some
publicity about a new rowing
machine Wayne la reported to
be operating In his apartment
to keep down the poundage.
And urnnlil vmi halievA it hft-
fore the Ink wa3 dry on that item,
what was Sips doing but loading
one of those selfsame contraptions
into his own snappy coach, prepar
atory to taking it home and 1, 2,
3, 4-lng away the spare tire that
he has accumulated by Inhaling
too many of his own Sips for
Supper!.
Furthermore, Sips, the crav
en, tried to alibi himself by
telling as he was baying it for
his wife. We'll bet when she
hears about that shell set him
a pace that will do him a lot of
good.
Before we're through with Sips,
we wish to chide him for defend
ing the county court all these
years when now, in Sips' own
story of the budget meeting, it is
disclosed that "The general fun
(correct) levy is Just estimated at
9143, 695." Just Imagine the court
levying any such sum just for fun
In times like these.
Yesterday we had the privi
lege of watching some basket
ball played under the new
rules. Just a practice scrim
mage, but It showed us what ef
fect the radical changes are
likely to have.
Teams will not be under any
great strain due to the require
ment for getting the ball up the
floor to the scoring end In 10 sec
onds. That's quite a period of
time. And on a big floor, they
will still be able to do consider
able "decoying" without moving
back out of that scoring zone
They'll have to watch their step
somewhat to avoid stepping back
over that center line.
The Important thing with re
spect to that rule, ia that It will
prevent "stalling" near the end
of game by the team that la
ahead. Forced to get into the
scoring end or lose the ball, the.
boys might aa well try to score,
and they undoubtedly will.
The three-second limit on hold
ing the ball in the free-throw lane
with back to the basket, will
change the game more than the
10-second rule. There will be no
more stalling for a block play set
up there.
Billy Stepp of the News-Tele
gram apparently doesn c reaa
oar column. The same day we
analyzed Colgate's record to
show how that team didn't rate
the Rose Bowl game, Billy came
oat with a declaration that the
Trojans picked a pushover tn
Pitt instead of taking the logi
cal eastern contender, Colgate.
Consider yourself bronxcheered,
Billy.

Purdue's undefeated football team
missed a tie for the Big Ten
championship this fall only be
cause of one tie game, but the
latest Noble Klzer touchdown ma
chine sustained a unique record
through to the end of its season.
That record is for scoring in
consecutive games, now standing
at 40 since the Boilermakers com
pleted their eight-game campaign
without once being neia scoreless.
The former record in modern,
big-time football was 85 games.

The records reveal that Dam

Parrish had a successful sea
son, defeating an opponents in
its elass and on outside of its
elass. It won four and lost three
games.
Ironlcallv enough, it was in
Purdue's 7-7 tie with Northwest

them from a- share of Michigan's
title, that the Old Gold and Black
registered consecutive scoring
came No. SI.
Purdue's string started after
the 15 to 0 loss to Minnesota's
powerful team of 1928. The next

AST Saturday's Army-Navy
elassie waa typical ox the
bitterly fought rames whicn
football fans have come to expect
whenever these two ancient grid
enemies clash on a football field.
But, aside from its traditional as
pect, Saturday's game was a sig
nificant one for grid followers in
that it marked the last appearance
of the likeable Major Ralph Sasse
as West Point football coach.
In line with the established prece
dent at West Point, Sasse steps
down after a three-year coaching
term, and will now return to field
duty with troops, to be succeeded by
Second Lieutenant Garrison David
son, present plebe tutor. Strong
pressure was brought to bear upon
Sasse and the War Department to
have his coaching term extended
another year, but Ralph is a sol
dier first of all, and at his own re
quest these efforts were discontin
ued. Sasse feels that an officer's Job
is with troops or in the staff college.
The Major will be remembered
as a dynamic and highly successful
football coach who turned out for
midable teams in each of his three
years as Army mentor. He Intro
duced the single-wing offense,
adapted from the Warner system,
when he took charge of the Army
eleven in 1930. eliminating the shift
attack which had been twed by his
predecessor. Biff Jones. Sasse felt
that the one-second delay rule had
impaired the effectiveness of the
shift attack. At any rate, the Ma
jor gave West Point a more ver
satile and better coordinated attack
than it bad daring the individualis
tic era of Red Cagle.
Sasse's 1932 team was a power
ful one, featuring a great veteran
line and a trio of brilliant backs in
"Pick" Vidsl, Ken Fields and Tom
KUday. Felix ("Pick") Vidal is
the younger brother of the immor
tal Jean Vidal, whose name is writ
ten in West Point football history
alongside the names of Harry Wil
son, Elmer Oliphant, Ray Stecker
and Cagle.
Young Felix has flashed some
brilliant performances for Army
this season, and certainly ranks
with the greatest ball-carriers in
the East. He is fast down a clear
field, shifty when loose hips and
change of pace art needed to thread
one's way through a flock of
tackle rs, and ha has a leg-drive
which makes it difficult for the
enemy to bring him down. Ia near
ly all of Army's victories this sea
son, Vidal has been a stand-out.
Vidal, Fields and the great Ray
Stecker were probably the three
best backs developed by Major
Sasse daring his too brief eoaehing
regime at the Point. Gar Davidson
will face a rather bleak outlook
when he steps into Sasse's shoes
next year, since not only Fields and
Vidal will be graduated next June,
but almost the entire varsity line
up as welL
Never in West Point history has
there been such an exodus of rar
sity regulars as will take place
next spring when the Secretary of
War pins gold bars on the shoulders
of the graduatingclass. Be thai as
it mayMaJor Ralph Sasse has
fmisheahis brief but memorable ca
reer as West Point football coach,
and his brilliant record has assured
him of a permanent niche ia
