Larson All-America in 1934. it this way: "Compton has a lot of students but they can have only 11 men on the field at one time." Larson, although schooled in the single wing employed by Bierman, uses the T-formation as well as the single wing, with variations of both. It has helped him win three northern junior college crowns, he points out.

Coach Larson plans to rely on a lot on a brother combination in the buc-kfiekl. He had Botl Zele kar at left half and Brother John Zeleznikar at right half.
