The play Is one that the Wolves of Loyola have used to exceedingly good advantage many times during the past four seasons. Yet it caught both Iowa State and Detroit flatfooted on successive Saturdays. Last November, Iowa States backs, Tegland and Trauger and Impson ploughed a steady path through the Wolves to gain a 7-0 lead. Loyola was considerably outweigh ed and the Wolves were making little headway with their fast' runlng at tack. . . Suddenly In mldfleld, Joe Tetlow started on a wide left end run. He had gone about ten yarda toward the left side when - he stopped dead, wheeled, and shot a 39-yard pass to Mickey Moore, Loyola's quarterback, on right sideline. Tetlow'e run, exactly similar to several previous attempts to circle that end, had drawn the Iowa state secondary with him. Moore was left with a wide open scamper to ths goal for a touchdown that so bewildered Iowa State that they never fully re covered and were beaten 14-7. Against Detroit, a stronger team. the same play brought Loyola victory although this time the actors' were Sam Zclden, as the passer, and Clar ence Smith, the receiver of a SB yard heave. Here follows one way the play la worked: With the line and backfleld unbal ance to the right, the ball Is snapped to a back who necessarily la fast and a good passer, directly behind center. The back starts to the right as tho on an orthodox end run, several of whloh had been tried previously. One back . charges straight. . through ths line, with his hands In the air and calling loudly for a pass. As the ball Is snapped, the offen sive left end starts to count slowly to three, his delay throwing the de fenatve right halfback off guard, who runs over to cover the back shouting for a pass. The back with the ball runs close to five yards to the right, and then fades back to heave a pass. Ho is covered by one back, while the fourth member of the backfleld dashes thru the line toward the right to decoy the defensive left halfback out of position. The offensive right end, who has been playing about ten yards out. dashes down the field, pulling the safety man over to covers After fading to the rear, the back with the ball heaves a long pass to the offensive left, end who is pro gressing down the field unnoticed after his three-count delay. The real secret of the play's success Is this dslay which causes the defen sive backs to take their attention from the ultimate receiver. However, If the defense does cover this man the play has an excellent chance of aucceas aa an end run, or a pass can- be made to any of the other eligible receivers who might be open 4 LIFT END COUNTS TMRMW bLOWLT AND ADVANCES I V jf) Coach CLARK &:$t&. -i""" " J AT if:-.: wr, "W fvlWv .

Hunt Holds Thrills for "Wild Wahoo" of Cards AS SEAL MENTOR DESPMANT Personal Habits Annoy Mag nates Is Only Reason Given Mode Will Lose Jobs in Big ' Leagues By Edward 4. Nell ST. LOUIS, Oct. 14. (AP) John Pepper" Martin, breezy unassuming hero of the 1931 world series, nurses one gnawing regret. He waa born too late In life to hunt buffalo on the sweeping plains of his native Okla homa. Hunting, even more than baseball is Pepper's grand passion. An Iron muscled youth, thick-legged, bulky, the good natured wild wahoo spends all his spare time roaming the Okla homa wilds In search of deer. He thinks hunting buffalo must have been the greatest sport there ever Pepper likes to drive a car fast, no where In particular. Just around. Movies and shows do not Interest him. He haa a radio but he doesnt turn It on much. "They don't have them old f Iddlere playing violins often enough," he says. The greatest honor that ever came to him, so hs believes, was the award of the "most valuable" player trophy In the Texas league when he was with Houston. They gave him brand new automobile. He waa able to give that one to his wife and keep the old one for lilnuelf for hunting trips. He's a bright young fellow, eager. enthusiastic willing, the perfect ball player from a manager's viewpoint, the perfect pal as far as the players ara concerned. They don't even mind the shotguns that are always falling out of his locker In the dressing room SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14 (API- Three days after he had won his sec ond pennant in the five years he msnaged the San Francisco Seals of the Paclflo Coast baseball league, R. L. 'Nick" Williams waa out of a Job. George Putnam, secretary of the club, announced yesterday that Wil liams had resigned, but Williams con' tends he was discharged. 'They called me to the ball park,' Williams said, "and told me I was through. They handed me a pre pared resignation statement to pass around, but I refused to sign It and tore It up. When I asked them why, they said they didn't like my personal habits." Williams had been with the Seals for It years as scout and manager. He won league penusnta In 1938 and mat. NEW YORK, Oct. 14. (AP) The open season on major league man age! already has netted two victims and the baseball world wilt be mildly astonished tf one or two more do not fall before the accurate fire of harp-shooting magnates. Dome Bush, a fiery veteran, has been cut loose from the Chicago wnite Sox and succeeded by Lew Pon- seca, an active player still tn hl sarly thlrtlea. The Pittsburgh Pi rates, after casting Jewel Ens adrift. are looking about for a new pilot. uopestera look for the next man agerial ah If te to come from Detroit and possibly Brooklyn. And there seem to be sound grounds for the suspicion that a change may be made In one camp or the other, It not In both.

There's something fascinating In the absolute lack of pretense In the young man, his anxiety to oblige, his fear of nothing. He will talk with anyone, sign scoreboards aud bose balls by the hour, stand In hotel lob bles and earnestly play over the games of the world serlee with utter strangers. He's Scotch-American in descent but he refuses to admit the Scotch part. "It'a all American," he says. The Athletics think there's some wild horse In him somewhere. He's been married since 193S to pretty little girl who went to gram' mar school with him out In Okla homa. She Isn't a bit surprised that the basebnlt world has finally recog nized him as a hero. He was all that he Is today to her when be was play. Ing halfback on the high echool foot ball team and smacking the eame kind of drives on the baseball nine that ruined the Athletics.

C. filgham, chairman of the lodge committee staging the show, "The two lads in the main event, Bobby Ambrose and Young Doc Snell," says Blgham, "should put on one of the hottest six rounds seen In Medford In years. They are touted as hard hitters and willing mixers and both come out fighting at the gong." The eeml-wlndup six-round event between Ray Morgan, 147-pounder from Portland, and Jerry O'Nell, 147 pounds, of Eugene, Is also boomed by Blgham as a crowd pleaser. Morgan has shown bis wares In Portland and Is a rushing, slugging type of battler. O'Nell Is known as the "iron man" of the Willamette valley, with abUlty to assimilate punishment and heave over a haymaker when an opening ahows. A four-round affair will pit Buddy Ambrose, twin brother of Bobby, and Louie Nelson, 125, Portland. Nelson la a tough customer and Buddy should have his hands full. Another four-rounder in which Curly Johnson, Albany, will face Ray Avery, Eugene, Is calculated to whet the Elks' appetite for action aa both boys are fast and clever. The ring show will open at the Elks temple after a short meeting set for S p. m., and eaoh Elk may bring two guests. v 1 Sport Flashes (By the Associated Press) BOLLYWOOD, Cal, Johnny Wels muller, swimming champion.
