Looks at Trophy
Lost Years Ago
By William C. Payette
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
Pasadena. Calif.. Dec. 28 llPi
Coach John Barnhill today was
shooting his Tennessee Volun
teers full of sunshine and psy
chology to get them In the mood
for Southern California, the gold
en boys of the gridiron.
It was a bad day for Tennessee
when football players learned to
read, because every paper they
pick up spots the Vols at least
thres touchdowns before getting
down to cases.
Between secret outdoor work
outs in Brookside park. Barnhill
has been Instilling his boys with
the glory that might have been
Tennessee's five years ago, the
last time the Southerners crossed
the country to tangle with the
Trojans.
Southerners Tire
The Tennesseeans got into Tro
jan territory that time but could
not cross the pay-stripe before
they fagged out. And the Trojans
ambled across for their touch
downs late in the halves once in
the first and again in the second.
Barnhill was taking no chances.
He has been trying to fire his at
tack to hit before the Trolan's
sheer weight wears the Vols down
and to get them in the right men
tal shape he took them for a tour
of the hallowed saucer.
They fplt the turf, sprinted a
little, and looked up at the empty
stands that will be packed on New
Year's day.
Then he cornered the care
taker and had him unlock the
trophy room. There were the
charts of that other Tennessee
game and the score: Southern
California 14, Tennessee 0.
"Lets Go Home"
"Well," said Barnhill, "there
she is boys; let's go home."
Current charts would seem to
show that it will take psychology
to put the Vols in the win column,
but the Southerners say you can't
believe everything you read. In
the yardage figures, the. weight
goes to Troy. The Trojans out
gained this season's opponents on
the ground considerably better
than 2 to 1, while the Vols fell
short of that mark. The Trojans
completed more passes than they
Doobled, while the Vols were miss
ing more than twice as many as
they connected. Added up, it gives
Southern California better than
twice the yardage of their oppo
nents, while Tennessee was show
ing -about a 25 per cent margin.
The Vols' complaint is that they
were in a lot faster company than
the local boys seem to think.

An Academy of Medical Sci
ences has been set up in Soviet
Russia to promote medical treat
ment throughout the nation.
By Jack Cuddy
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
New York, Dec. 28 (IP) He
wears his heavy flannels in the
summer when it's hot and he
plays in satin scanties in the
winter when it's n5t, he is a rarity
in sports because he is a pro-
amateur and naturally he is one
of Brooklyn's own. Howie
(Stretch) Schultz of the Dodgers
is back in town as a basketball
player.
The traffic on the B. M. T. sub
way from Brooklyn into Manhat
tan will be mainly in one direction
tonight when the faithful of flat
bush go to see Schultz, one of
their legion of idols in a role that
will be entirely new to them, is
center for the Hamline University
court sports from St. Paul.
There Is nothing new about the
job to Howie because he was an
all-star on the hard boards, A
long time before he took over as
guardian of first base for the
Dodgers in the summer of 1943.
Of chief interest to most fans
Is how Schultz is able to operate
on the double standard, switch
ing Chameleon-like from the stat
us of a professional to an amateur
when it is time to go back to
college.
Let H rain, let H snow . . your
, fortune "Pugged Grains" will bo your bost
friend. Sturdily construct! of long wearing
hard-to-sevff grain leather, those fortune wilt
gtvo you mile and miles of walking pleasure.
With the tough new waterproof, flexible soles.
Howie's coach, Joe Hutton,
seems to have the best answer to
that. Despite the fact that the
six-foot-six-inch initial sacker is
under contract to the Dodgers on
an annual basis, Hutton figures
that his summer-time vocation
in Flatbush is no different from
that of any other college young
ster, working at any kind of a
job to earn money for his educa
tion. "Our conference in Minnesota
allows a boy to work during his
summer vacation and if that work
happens to be playing basebal f of
money, we don't see any ""reason
to chmige that boy's amateur sta
tus," Hutton said.
Hutton stressed that the con
ference was not functioning un
der relaxed wartime regulations
which in many areas make it
possible for a player to participate
in amateur athletics, even though
he has been a professional in
other lines of sport.
"We have observed this same
code for more than 25 years," he
said. "Don't you think our atti
tude is more sensible than that of
other conferences which make
Hers of good clean kids who have
to play pro sports during their
vacation under names to circum
vent eligibility rules?"
Schultz, the Dodger, as distin
guished from Schultz, the basket
ball player had a hard begining as
the first youngster brought in by
Boss Branch Rickey in his Ebbets
field "youth movement." It was
a tough spot because Rickey had
just traded away the tremendous'
ly popular Dolph Camilli to the
Giants and he settled the raw
rookie right into the first base
man's job. The right field rooters
had threatened to boycott the
park, but their roasting turned to
toasting after Howie's very'first
game in which he made two clean
hits and a pair of sparkling plays
afield. He never lost tne loo,
playing out the 1943 season and
the full 1944 campaign.
