Turn to Page II, Column 4 The fact that the annual Trojan home-cominR banquet is the place where everyone eats cold turkey but none talks it should not be taken as a reflection on this state occasion. It is the championship affair of the gridiron gastronomic season.

Of course there always is considerable of the "I take great pleasure In introducing" business, which goes with every dinner of this kind but, by and large, the affair produces many laughs and not a few interesting developments. SPAULPIXG rOPl'LAK One of the yearly high lights is the way this bunch of genuine Trojan rooters raise the roof when Bill Rpaulding, now the U.C.L.A. athletic director, is introduced. I've attended a lot of these banquets and Bill would have won the championship at every one had an applause recorder been installed, with genial Dean Cromwell, the S.C. track coach getting place position.

Of course, Spaulding has a tactical advantage. He gets 'em with that confidential "over the tea cups" manner when he steps up to the "mike" while Dean just takes a bow and sits down. Bill tried that this year but the crowd wouldn't let him off se easily. Spaulding never fails 'em. Said he: "With two undefeated teams it's been tough on the wolves in this town this season." MR.

SMITH GOFS Dr, Rufus B. von KleinSmid always delivers masterfully a scholarly treatise the value, of athletics and sometimes cleverly unsheaths the rapier to prick the tough hide of the newspapermen. And while the blood still is mounting, as deftly he salves the wound. The prexy knows how to lapse into the sports vernacular without losing the slightest bit of dignity and wisely refrains from being too academic on these occasions. Usually there is some comedy relief and it was furnished on this occasion by Bob Hope, ho got off on the right foot by saying he was going out to the game to "see Smith go through Washington." MUCH ORATORY Always there are many coaches and most of them try to emulate the late Knute Rockne who.

in his time, turned many a clever phrase at this erv-gathering. When I started attending these affairs a number of years back most-of the coaches con had scored a last-quarter toucn-down.
