While the veteran "advisory Poet field. The Bulldogs got off to a fly. ing start, stunning Chief New coach" of the Spartans, Pop Warner, smoked endlessly and 1 occasionally hobbled to the sidelines aided by his cane, the Spartans made the master's style of man's squad by piling up 20 points before the home team could make anything that resembled a bid.

Bradshaw's boys were paced by a crashing fullback, Bob Peterson, and a glue-fingered wing-man named Jack Mulkey. For the Poets, Gene Wineinger and play look nearly unbeatable as Comes today confirmation of my deep-seated suspicion that Cornell cannot play in the Rose Bowl, no matter how much the western representative might want to invite the Big Red team that remains among the few undefeated and untied teams of the country. I would not repeat myself at this time except that some continue to insist that the honorable institution at Ithaca might break the bonds of entwining ivy and answer the call If it came through the right channels, etc. FEEL FLATTERED My informant is a prominent alumnus of Cornell, residing in New York, whose name you would immediately recognize as sufficient authority if I were at liberty to use it. "I can safely assure you there is not the remotest chance Cornell would even consider an invitation to the Rose Bowl-however it might feel flattered by the same and however much the boys might be enthusiastic." writes this gentleman.

"In order to do so, Cornell would have to drop out of the Ivy League which, while not a formal organization, nevertheless has some of the most binding and emphatic agreements of any college group in the country. IROXCLAD RULES "One of the ironclad rules within the group is that no postseason games may be played, anywhere, on any basis. Without being high-hat on the subject, they feel it gets too deep they whirled off reverses, double reverses and all the gridiron magic that Pop has stored away in his many years of coaching. I)l'I IX CHARGE Actually, of course, it was Dud De Groot, the head coach of this San Jose machine, who di bid Hendrick were the big guns, guns. FUMBLE HURTS After a series of punt exchanges in the first period P'res-no got a break when Bronzan recovered Wineinger's fumble on the Poet 20.

The Bulldogs lost 5 yards for an i'legal shift, but came right back to score. Peterson tossed a short pass to Don Irola, who dashed to the 13," shaking off three Poets while doing so. Two plays later a pass interfer rected the doings, sent in the substitutes and patted the boys on the back when they came off the field. But it was Pop's stuff, all right, and the crowd knew it. The San Jose touchdown, for instance, was the W'arner system at its best.

The ball was on Loyola's 5-yard line when the razzle-dazzle started. There was considerable pass ence ruling gave the Bulldogs the ball on the 1-yard line. Peter son bucked over guard for the lly. The invaders scored on the ing oacK and forth with backs darting around like bees heading for the hive. All of a sudden one last play of the first quarter of the San Jose boys, Her when Al Lawless threw a pass from the 24 to Rouch, who caught the pigbkin on the 5-yard line and went over with three Poets on his back.

Mulkey con verted. man etterquist, was seen for all he was worth around lis left end. Only one Loyola layer saw the play develop, and as he might John Hanna, a -ib guard, couldn't catch the fly-ig ball carrier. It was a perfect lay, for Zetterquist didn't have i single man as interference, but i i fr ANOTHER TALLY It looked like a real rout when Fresno hit pay dirt a few min OXY AND ROMONA CLASH lie Lions were so far bewildered utes later.

"Of course, I know one of the Ivy Leaguers, Columbia, did go out to Pasadena and do itself right proud, but that was before the present Ivy group tightened its restrictions; in addition to which Columbia has never felt itself bound quite as tightly to such restrictions among others) as has Cornell. WILL BE LUCKY "Cornell subscribed in toto to the "Big Three" agreement which covers all angles of the football setup respecting proselyting, scholarships, regulation thereof, student aid, if any; schedule-making, t-season ban, etc. "The Cornells' will be lucky to survive the next couple of weeks, anyway, without taking on anything beyond the regular schedule. They have done right well so far; in fact, the season already can be counted a great success as a result of knocking over Ohio State, but I won't be happy unless we take the Pennsylvanias into camp."

Conn weighed only 171 Vi; Lesnevich, 174'i.

For the entertainment of a crowd of 13,704 of the fistic faith Pittsburg Teachers. 48: Southwest, gets around the country a lot. Now take Paul Christman, the gay Lochinvar from Old Mizzou, wrho startled the eastern writing people with his passing against New York. Nobody gave Christman a tumble after Ohio State whipped Missouri and he got only passing attention after the Show Me boys broke Nebraska's winning streak. But he gets away from home and cuts loose against an average team like the Violets, whose aerial defense must have been something to hold your nose about, and the critics go wild.

And where were birds last year when Paul was completing 63 of 141 tmsses for 1020 yards? 'TROJAN CHANCE This' should be a tip of a couple of Trojans named Gren-ville Lansdell and Harry Smith if they would like to get on one or two of these all-teams. If either plays against Notre Dame as he did against Oregon State or Stanford, the Chicago scribes are a cinch to write reams of copy about them. Of course the Notre Dames figure to be a lot more' opposition than the Stanfords and perhaps harder to handle than the Beavers, but if Harry throws some of his sensational blocks into the Irish and makes a few of those tackles he'll get the clippings all right, all right. And Grenny might cut loose' on a couple of long runs and toss a few of his choice passes to attain the same end. JIOW ABOUT NAVE 1 I have my doubts that Christ-man is a bit better pass thrower than either Doyle Nave or Kenny Washington.

Kenny, unfortunately, is a member of a non-tourist team. And Doyle also is the victim of circumstances. He happens to be on a team that has so many good quarterbacks that he's like the small boy in a large family. He gets what superlatives are left after the writing brethern have divided them up with Lansdell and AmbySehindler. i V'x, Mist to two members.
