What do athletes get out of their
prowess once they have graduated
from school? Does the fanfare and
adulation that accompanies a star
halfback through the last two or
three years of his college career spoil
him for any useful duty after
ward? We have a pet story anent that,
which now that such a controversy
Is raging, seems more or iess appro
priate. A few years ago -7e were m
New York and read that Santa Olara
and Oregon were going to tang; on
the gridiron at Eugene. It was a
game we didn't want to miss, and
being out of funds, as usual, started
riding freight trains west 13 days be
fore the game.
We got In Eugene 15 minutes be
fore the ktckoff, startling a few Med
ford friends by our singularly un
kempt and wan appearance as we j
walked the ties Into town. But the
point Is. that during the game a
young Santa Clara back, named Jack
McQulre, did as much as could be
expected in stopping Kotaka, Ml ku
lak. Temple and Bowerman, and car
ried the ball quite effectively him
self. He won considerable acclaim for
himself, and there we'll leave htm.
Still being short of funds, we
angled for a ride to Med ford on the
train that was taking the Santa
Clara team back to California. Hav
ing gone to school the year before
with all the players, they agreed to
let us hide In their bunks to elude
the Espee conductor until the train
got to Medford. Only It never did.
It was the Cascade Instead of the
Shasta, and went through Klamath
Falls. We had to play hlde-and-go-
seek with that conductor all night,
every time he getting close we Jump
ing Into lower-8, landing on a bat
tered athlete whom we couldn't
Identify In the dark. We gave htm
a terrific beating all night Jumping
In on top of him at Intervals of
five minutes, and when we left the :
train at Klamath Falls we still didn't
know who he was.
When at the Chicago world
fair the next year, two Html a
Clara grads were hawking a run- v
her whale on the midway, and
upon our entry to the exhibit
we had quite a reunion, one of '
the hankers was Jnrk MrUuIre,
the guy who had played the nice
game at Eugene, and who, It
developed, had served as bark
stop for our wild leiips Into lilx
bunk on the train ride to
Klamath.
The next time we saw him was In
a movie palace In Monterey. Mexico

Illustrates in a long-winded way, te
point that at least some athletes get
something out of their college careers,
since a movie producer had met Jack
at a dinner in San Francisco after a
St. Mary'a-Santa Clara game In which
he had starred, and offered htm a pic
