Joe has never been a hard fellow to get along with. Give him his eveninsr Daner. his fl pipe, an easy ner and he won't ask for much else.

He y- y. Yi doesn't, however, like to be told what and what not to do. He stood it only so long when they amputated his cocktail not that Joe is given to excess in that sort of thing, his doctor simply won't let him and then he rose up and made himself heard. Now he has made up his mind to see this other thing through on the theory that a game of Sunday baseball or a theater party to while away evening are his privilege if he cares to indulge in them. Smith anj it behooves no one to tell him what to do With his time just as his habits are likewise his own affair.

Joe Public' Knows What He Wants THERE is a striking similarity between these two campaigns of Joe's. In the case of prohibition he is not a high-powered tippler, but he wants to be able' to do a bit of circumspect tiDDline- and do it lefrallv if the urue strikes him. 9 And so far as the Blue Laws are concerned, he is not wishing to trample on anyone else's toes -but he wants the same treatment in return. He will 4eU you very frankly that if the agitation to allow Sunday sports was entirely a racket by the promoters of professional athletics, he would have no part in it. But he knows it isnt, for the number of persons who would pay to watch professional baseball, Shrtners yesterday honored John B.

Take for example, a typical Sunday in Pittsburgh under the proposed change: The Pirates would be playing at Forbes Field, well say. and with a good day and a strong opponent, there" would he a crowd of between 25.000 and 30.000 which wouldn't be a drop in the bucket compared to the number that would attend from 20 to 30 sandlot games throughout the district, go fishing, golf, play tennis or soccer on the city and county playgrounds and otherwise amuse themselves. Befoie the Pitt-Stanford game at the Stadium yesterday, an Interesting ceremony took place on the playing field. Karl Rex Hammers, Potentate of Syria Temple, representing the Shriners, placed in the lapel of Coach John B.

Hands buried in pockets, "Pop" Warner strolled out on the field slowly behind the boys from The Farm. He was stopped on the 23-yard line by Bates, one of his own boys, but just to confer. Wallace Predicts Kayo "It looks like Pitt 'by a knockout in four rounds," predicted Billy Wallace, Cleveland's radio crooning boxer.

"Hi, Pop," the Pitt band spelled in marching across the field for its opening maneuvers. Those boys can spell anything. Dr. Jock Sutherland was pre sented with an emblem by Shriners ust before the kickoff. Reider Sits With Scribes "Look, Dailey is open to catch that pass "This will be an around end play, but Where's the interference "Dont let that ball bounce.

Muggsy -It's just Paul Reider, captain of the Panthers, worrying about his teammates. He sat in the press box. A tough break to have to Continued from Page ing wind and with almost equal fa- dlity; the manner in which these kicks were dogged by the line; the refusal of the ends and tackles particularly Paul Cuba and Muggsy Skladany to give ground before the Cardinals' slants and sweeps: the agility with which the tertiary defense moved up to meet the plays and the apparently limitless territory covered on all passes by the entire secondary. Hogan's toe put the Panthers in a position from which they could open the floodgates of their attack and at the same time keep the Indians in such a plight that they were almost never able to be other than conservative in the manner of plays used. Corbus Mighty Guard Offensively, Pitt was" not without fault, although the 175 yards she gained to Stanford's 36 attest to the superior power of the Sutherland scythe.

Perhaps it should be said the Panthers were suffering from a malignant infection known as Bill Corbus, who, if he is not the best guard in the land, will do until a better one comes along. The Cardinals' mighty lineman made tackles all over the field, con tinually cut hta way into the center of plays directed at points along the line far Temoved from bis position and literally saved his goal line from being crossed one or two times more. The crowd took to Corbus from the start, and once under way there was nothing to do but watch him in the very near perfect role he filled. Menace Finally Removed Only once was Pitt able to elude Corbus, and that was when the touchdown was made. The Cardinal ends and defensive backneld work likewise was commendable.

Outdone almost from kickoff to final whistle, the Westerners none the less were never without fire and fury. Although Pitt tallied in the opening quarter, it was not until the end ot the half that any fear that Stanford might still be a menace was removed. By that time the wind had been taken away from be- Statistics Pitt. Stanford. IO Downs Kcritnaaare.

Then, and not until, did it become glaringly apparent the Panthers were the better team. Stanford Star Tied Up Not long after the kickoff, the Blue jerseys showed their hand in a way that must have been disconcerting to the visitors, for after Quarterback Campbell had pranced to mid-field with a punt, Skladany cruised through and brought down Ernie Caddell for a loss of 11 yards on an attempt to sweep the former's end.

Caddell is a great back, a high-stepping run ner with a fine change of pace and sure of foot; when he could not es cape the trap laid for him Stanford was In a bad way. Two exchanges of punts, the final kick by Hogan traveling 65 yards from the scrimmage line and. being touched down by Ted Dailey a yard from the Indian goal line, paved the way for the touchdown. Anderson's return bit into the gale and stopped on the 30 and from that point the Panthers whacked and carved down-field and over the coast team's goal. Heller Slides to Touchdown Sebastian curled past Dovib for seven yards, Weinstoek bruised through Grey for nine, and the ball Pitt St.

The Pirate play Sunday baseball under the present arrangement, the only difference being: that we have to go to Chicago, Cincinnati, Brooklyn or elsewhere to do it. At present, because we have no Sundays at home, we are given all the holiday doubleheaders by the National League schedule committee. It would be logical that we would lose half these dataes if Sunday ball were permitted, so while we would gain in one respect, we would lose in another." Benswanger's views are shared by Joe Public. Except in an offhand sort of way, he is not interested in the financial problems, but he feels that if he cares to go to Forbes Field on a Sunday afternoon it is not up to the state to deny him the right.

A Boost Comes In For Susquehanna DEAR SIR: As a reader of your column, I have been wondering why you have made no remarks to the effect that Susquehanna University, at Selinsgrove, has the only unbeaten season's record of any college in Pennsylvania except Pitt. Ten years ago, at Susquehanna, Luther D.

Grassman, athletic director, began the development of the Grassman Plan of athletics for everybody. This plan is now used under the name of the Gates Plan at the University ef Pennsylvania, although Mr. Grassman is credited with it by Philadelphia sports writers. There are thousands of Susquehanna graduates within a radius of 100 miles of Pittsburrh. although the school is 209 miles from here.

Those two yards were put behind in the same number of plays Heller sliding off tackle to bury his nose in the frozen turf of the end zone.

Hogan acquitted himself with the utmo eclat. His punts were low and awa from Campbell, who was eitlKi hurled in his tracks or had to stanc idly by while a Panther downed the ball. There was nothing but Pitt to the third quarter.

Gaining the ball shortly after kicking off, the Suther- landers pounded pellmell to Stan-' ford's 15-yard stripe, with Weinstoek twice breaking through center for 15 and 10-yard gains. Halted, the Panthers went to passing but tljey lost the pigskin when Sebastian, safely behind the goal line, was a stride behind Heller's accurately-placed toss. Once more it was Hogan who literally kicked the Cards inU submission and they had to pun twice from inside their 5-yard line CaddeU Almost Gets Away The final 15 minutes saw the Redskins still without a first down, but they rectified that almost immediately when Sim shook clear on a fake punt formation from his own 20-yard line and tore to the 34 be- fore he was captured. Anderson quickly whipped a pass to Campbell for 11 more and then Caddell was within a shade of a touchdown when he took a behind-the-line pass from Anderson and scurried 30 yards to Pitt's 25. The Panthers showed they were not dismayed by this sudden advance by chucking the slick-hipped Caddell 11 yards behind his line and knocking down a pair of passes.

Anderson had to punt and Pitt resumed command. It looked like another touchdown when Weinstoek squeezed through a hole in the line and ran 50 yards to Stanford's 10 but the referee had blown the dead when the fullbacU was hardly more than 3 yards head of his starting point so back came the play. Pitt Plays Conservatively For the rest of the game, it was Pitt's cue to fashion its offense along conservative lines and Stanford's to pass at every opportunity. They did exactly that, with the usual results; the Blue Shirts gained the ground while the White jerseys were taking all the risks and get ting nowhere. A A fumble by Weinstoek on Stanford's 40-yard line ruined what appeared to be a lively assault but Hogan intercepted a pass by Lambert seconds later to regain the advantage.

As the game neared its end, Weinstoek duplicated Hogan's performance when he speared a ball thrown by Allen fa- down in Cardinal acreage. Only seconds were left to play, and the Panthers had time for three punches at the line before the whistle. The victory gave Pitt the rubber game of the three which have been played and was, in a measure, revenge for the Panthers' defeat 7 to 6 in the Rose Bowl contest in 1928. The Western Pennsylvaniana had previously won from their coast rivals in 1923, at Palo Alto. 16 to 7.

vitation undoubtedly would be in the hands of that school by this time. The fact that no decision had been reached prior to yesterday's game at the Stadium led to the conclusion that Pitt might yet be among the candidates for the game. yrKEEP YOURSELF FIT DT.1V HANnfiAl.T.

University of There was no question In my mind but that Pitt was a better team than Stanford yesterday both on offense and defense.

In fact, I feel that Pitt was better than the score indi- -cated, better than seven points superior, in other words. The offensive strength of both teams was not as strong as other Pitt and Stanford elevens I nave seen in action. But the defensive play of the Panthers was marvelous. The Panther line was one of the best have seen this year and therein lies the success of a football team. Cuba.

Dailey and Skladany Outstanding in that line were Cuba at tackle and the two ends, Dailey and Skladany. Cuba especially scintillated. He was in virtually every play and I dont doubt but that it was his best per formance of the season. The work of the Stanford ends also was excep tional. This fine work by the four ends accounted for the lack of long gains.

Jock Sutherland certainly has done a wonderful job this year in building that Pitt line. When one considers that he started the campaign with green line material, his work is realized as being all the more remarkable. Heller is one of the greatest all- around I have watched in action for some time. Sebastian's ball-carrying was all that could be asked. Heller is an All-America back if I ever saw one.

I believe Hogan's kicking and the covering of punts by the Pitt ends was the deciding factor of the game. Stanford was kept at a disadvantage ajl afternoon by those punts. The ball covered on the one-foot line on a punt in the first period really was the deciding factor. Corbus Is Real Star For Stanford, Corbus at guard seemed to be in every play and is all that the experts claim lor him. Bates at center also stood out.

In the backfield Sims was disappointing to me. I saw this boy play against Dartmouth a year ago and he looked like one of the greatest backs I ever had seen. However, due to injuries this season he has not been himself and that probably accounted for his poor showing yesterday. It was a good, hard-fought game. The tackling was hard and deadly at times, but it was a "clean" game.
