of the "Vow Boys" were rais-

rest of the Coast conference
elevens.. From Santa Clara Mc

what they are today, although proselyting was common and Gen

. - After Stanford: McGuire launched a coaching career at Bel-
larmihe prep school in San Jose, Calif where he bossed football,
basketball and boxing. Came the war and six months in the ma

Four Systems All Sparklers

And If all four mentors manage to Innoculatc respective styles

.color will be the Big Red's this time! Sparkswould of course tend
to stick with Spec Keene's man-iu-motion stuff, which, when
working is as beautiful to watch as any; Trotter would no. doubt '
like to use the quick-opening UCLA "QT plan which finaHy put
- 'a Bruin team In the Rose Bowl this year; Carroll, once an Oregon
College of Education gridder under Larry Wolfe, uses large ad
- jectiveswhen boasting the potentialities of Wolfe's Inimitable
hlpper-dipper stuff, sndMcGuire, having learned the Notre Dame
system under Smith and Shaw at Santa Clara, would undoubted
ly like to Install the razor-sharp glittery shift and box-formation
style introduced by the late Knute Rockne and preached by so
many of his fledglings. ; - ?
But, as Trotter puts it, "we'll have to see what we've got before we
adopt a system. If we've got only small men; but fast;and it looks like
that's .what we've got all tjght, well have to useT formation stuff
i-t'heck with the interference, Just give 'em a quick opening and
let 'em run. ... ' '
Which wouldnt be hard to look at a bit. '
f Speaking of Trotter, his dad,' who's been associated with the UCLA
coaching staff for 30 years, recently wrote a warning to "not get too
hepped up Over UCLA prospects this year despite navy students."
