WHEN STICKY FINGERS BAGGED SIX POINTS FOR TIDE SAYS: A Gophers Trim Huskies, 15-0 Wilbur Moore Leads Minnesota to Thrilling Triumph 'Bama Beats Trojans, 19-7 Crimson Tide Passes Spell Defeat for S.C. in Grid Opener HEADING HOME, Sept, 21 Let's see now just who are all these strange persons dashing about at the Los Angeles Ten-nis Club as the Pacific Southwest Tournament swings under way? Many of them are old friends, but some of them are new. Let's look 'em over. MME.

(Ex- elusive) Minnesota's Golden Gophers -beat the University of BIT BRAVES DYER Baffled by an aerial barrage characteristic of all Alabama teams which have invaded the Far West, Southern California's bid for a return to gridiron su premacy was indefinitely post Washington Huskies 15 to 0 be raws tii vf cHMi fore 50,000 sweltering spectators. The Big Ten champions won poned last night after the 1938 edition of the crimson Tide hau scored a 19-to-7 victory before -a vr 60,000 fans in the Coliseum.

It was a typical Alabama team and a typical Alabama triumph, Full page of picture! ol Coli. Mum gam appears on Page 11. Part IL achieved through the air. largely by making fewer mistakes than their opponents in a game that at times was little more than a typical early-season comedy of errors. Minnesota, however, certainly had a clear margin of power and also had more than a fair share of the breaks of the game while Washington's foozling cost them a couple of scoring opportunities in the opening moments which might have changed the whole aspect of the conflict.

POWERFUL OFFENSE Rolling up the handsome total of 249 yards on sheer murderous power which featured a driving ISO-pounder named Wilbur Moore and a 205-pound human It wouldn be quite fair to say that it was likewise a typical Trojan team and a typical Trojan defeat, suffered because of faulty pass defense. CAN PLAY BETTER That's the way it must hava looked to the huge opening day crowd, but the frojans are potentially a strong team and can and will play better football than steamroller named Larry Buhler, the Gophers thundered up and down the field to indicate that they had more sheer drive than any squad since their mighty laJl eleven. They crashed down deep enough to try for two field goals, they did yesterday. It was Alabama's afternoon to howl and the Dixie warriors did a thorough and systematic job of winning their fifth victory in seven starts on the Pacific Coast. They scored twice in the sec ond quarter on passes and again in the third period on an intercepted aerial shot.

She was married at 13 and I find that I did her an injustice the other day she had TWO children squalling on the sidelines when she won the junior championship of France. A clever, heady player with extremely deceptive shots. NANCYE WYNNE. Australia's most promising young player.

On days when her shots are all going in she is the greatest woman tennis player in the world so far it hasn't happened very often. T1IELMA COYNE. Husky young lady of the steady type.

Good doubles player and good enough in singles to beat Helen Jacobs this year which certainly isn't bad. She and Nancye Wynne wear white hats, Nan-rye with the brim turned down and Thelma with the brim turned up. DOROTHY STEVENSON and NELL HOPMAN play doubles together and usually wear light blue caps. Dorothy is a young player who gets awfully good at times. Nell Hopman happens to be the wife of Harry Hop-man, Australian Davis Cup captain but she's a fine player Jn her own right, being exceptionally smart and heady.

An excellent doubles player. JOHN BROMWICH needs no introduction although he has previously played only a couple of exhibition matches on our courts. Only 19, he is generally agreed to be the finest young player- in the world. What he'll do on our courts is questionable as his peculiar shots are particularly adapted to grass court play and the speed with which the ball comes off our fast courts may ruin his carefully produced technique. Naturally right-handed he uses two hands on a ball to his right, plays a ball to his left with his left hand, serves with his right hand and hits overheads with either hand or both.

He's a bit shy, girls. FRAN JO KUKULJEVIC runs a private detective agency in Jugoslavia and has a good-looking wife who Is with him and who keeps an eye on him. Tall, dark, volatile and left-handed he has peculiar shots and is likely to be very, very good on our courts. He is a holy terror on the clay courts of Central Europe.

HUSKIES FUMBLE The story of Washington can final stanza as the result of a fumbled punt, Antelope Al Krue-ger recovering the ball on the 1-yard line and subquarterback Ollie Day banging over for the tally. About the only thing that worked for the Trojans yesterday was the newly adopted "kicking toe" which big Phil Caspar affixed to his trusty hoof and used to send the ball between the uprights for the extra point. Little Herky Mosley, a mere slip of a halfback, was on the throwing end of Alabama's two first-half scores. This was as it be written in the fumble and forward pass statistics: Washington fumbled six times and on four occasions the ball was recovered by Minnesota. Wash ington taunted aerial attack launched sixteen passes into the air, of which seven were incom should be; retribution, if you plete and five were intercepted.
