What they don't know, however, is why the Scarlet was beaten or just what the defeat meant. Let me tell you. And this Is no alibi. To start with, Harvey Haimar, has 11 men to play his football for him and that's as far as you can go.

In addition, Harvey Harman tilso has four keymen in his gridiron setup and as the four go, so goes the team. That sounds like a sweeping statement and a slight to the other grid-ders who make up Rutgers eleven, but even they will admit what everybody saw on Brown field yesterday, when the Bears ended their chedule. along with Scarlet hoped Jor an undefeated season, with a 13 to 0 victory. Yesterday, Bill Tranavitch suffered cramps In his thighs and he was lost for the second half of this crucial game. Art Gottlieb was hit in the head in the first quarter, became actually punch-drunk and was lost to Rutgers.

Ray Foster was flipped from behind and left with one good leg to stand on. Ralph Bchmldt, aa every other day that the Queensmen have played this Season, was the second part of the Foster-Schmidt combination which Is good only when both are In the lineup. So when the Chief left the game, Schmidt was as good as out too. They are the four keymen In this Rutgers setup and I've told you hat happened to them. Now let's ee just what this meant to the beaten Scarlet, previously undefeated in 13 starts.

A Tremendous Loss First of all, when the Train went eut of the game, Rutgers lost its big running gun and the best linebacker that has ever worn a Scarlet uniform. There Is no substitute lor Bill, no matter how you figure It. Throughout the entire first period his name was absent from the list cf invading backs who carried the ball. But a look at the defensive eide of the subject will give you tho Tranavitch spelled In capital letters. The Big Train was all over the field making tackles and while he was in, the Scarlet was as near inn regnable as it can ever be.

But in the second quarter, Wild Willy was given the ball on an off tackle sweep and the result was a 2l y.ird gi.in. Remember, this was the one play In which the Rutgers fjfi'ensive went to the outside. During the rest of the time the Scat let concentrated on inside plays and called on Bill only four times more throughout the entire time he was in the contest. The result was an almost invisible gain on the ground, 6S yards to be exact. Naturally, the question arises as to why Tranavitch was not called cn more often and why the Scarlet did not work on its wide stuff when It was evident to everybody in the stands that the plays inside the tackles were not clicking.

Well, the explanation is an easy one. Gottlieb Bartered Gottlieb, Afler the first quarter, vho was calling signals for the Queensmen, did not know one play fiom the other because he was as punch-drunk and groggy as a has pern boxer. mat explains wny nuigers am Kit attempt to run tho ends or the tackles when the formation employ by the Bruins was made to order for plays of this type. It was a pet feet situation to call on Tranavitch to sweep wide around tackle suid end on his power drives, for tho Brown tackles were tight and the i nds crashed. Any back could have made his way around this setup -ithout the slightest trouble.

But Art was In no condition to figure out things like this for after the game he was unable to tell one play that he called ln the 50 odd minutes he was in there. That's why the Scarlet was calling on Vinnic TJtl all the time to carry up the middle and off the guards on a cries of spins and fake reverses vhlch were stymied before they uuld get under way. As for substituting for Gottlieb, hat was a dangerous proposition. The score was 0-0 most of the frav nd whilc.lt stayed there the red hlrts still had a chance and Har-j i I i I PROVUDCNCE, R. Dec.

1 The 1939 football season at Rutgers may be over for nine seniors, but one may continue his gridiron career In professional ranks, it was learned here today. Artful Art Gottlieb, the passing portion of the Scarlet's aerial attack, has received feelers from the New York Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates pro gridiron clubs. Gottlieb, who blossomed out as one of the finest passers to don a Scarlet moleskin last year and who captured the spotlight this year with his triple threat maneuvers, has not made a definite decision on continuing to play football, It was learned. Come 1941 and another Scarlet gridder may turn to the pro ranks. He is redheaded Ken Omley, the 220-pound blocking back.

The pro ivory hunters of the Washington Redskins spotted Omley year, and asked him to "think it over after this season," believing he was a senior. Scouts, after learning he had another year in college, told George and Albany Streets WHERE if I1K0WN9I 84 ALBANY ST. 1 Doors from Publlo Service as STUDENTS' 2-Panis SUITS Sizes 16-22 USE RODNEY'S "TEN PAY" PLAN 1 Br! ''f 11 CASH PAYS DIVIDENDS It's Smart Buying WHEN YOU I Aft Profit by man did the right thing by keeping his best men in the ball game. For if he had removed Art he would have weakened his pass defense and lost 90 per cent of the threat in his offense. Interception Costly In the light of this explanation, acceptance of the fact that Rutgers called a quick kick two or three times on second and third down with the ball near midfteld, is easier to take.

This also explains why nine of Gottlieb's heaves were intercepted. Gottlieb, on an average day, would be the last one to throw ball.s like that, floaters that were made to order for interception. Getting to the Foster occurrence, here's the way it works. The Chief is one of the best defensive halfbacks on the Scarlet team and is an invaluable man at this deep wing post. Schmidt, is the better defensive end and shines on stopping plays directed around his flank.

But neither can play the other's post and so when one gits hurt both are crippled. That's just what happened. Foster was clipped and taken out of th; game and Rutgers was left without a right defensive winghack. On the effenfe, when the bis Schmidt operates from his quarierhack position because of his invaluable blocking, the Scarlet was left without a good end, for any man who came in to take Foster's place behind the line could not play for the of-j fense at end. Stream of Substitutes Consequently, Harman was kept busy sending a string of reserves into the game, needing a different man each time the ball changed hands.

In a case of this sort, It is impossible to concentrate on how your football team doing for the first thing that has to be done is to get a full team on the field. Under the conditions existing for Harman yesterday, this was no easy job. So there you have it. Brown took is-vard cliDninsr Denaltv and nrac- i tically won the hall game as a di-; rect result. Cramps and a slight i concussion took care of Tranavitch and Gottlieb and the Bruins were win.

Without tl ving to present an alibi ad ln al truthfulness it can be that the Rears got the breaks and therefore I won what might have been one of the toughest games on the eastern seaboaid. Thus, for the boys on the team and especially the seniosw, it's a tough break in end a great season this way. For I Cooke and Char-lie Craig, the two stellar tackles, for Will Dorn and Doug Hotchkiss, grand guard and center, for the Train and Gottlieb, two superlative backs, It's a hard way to bow out of intercollegiate football. But a foot-hall team is like the stock market for you never know when the bottom Is going to fall out of cither. KHAN RETRENCHES LONDON iPi The Aga Khan.
