For some time Westbrook Pegler has been reviewing the case of Krebs, that naive who appeared at Kansas back in 1899 when Fielding Yost coached the Jayhawkers, staying just long enough to wallop the pants off the Comhuskers in a football game.

Over 4,090 spectators the hands of time turned back when stars of Nebraska football of other years battled on the sodden, slippery stadium gridiron Monday, Henry Schulte Blues Winn i by a 7 to 0 margin over Fred Reds. Because of the crowd which was twice the size anticipated the Junior baby clinic fund will receive a a tial boost as all of the pro 8 from the game will be turned over to this worthy cause.

Marvin ninety-five yard runback of the opening kickoff was the only touchdown of the afternoon. Bill Bronson converted the extra point from placement. The oddest feature of a game crammed to the gunwhales with unusual incidents was the fact that when Paul made the run for the Blue team there were twelve Reds on the field. Coach Schulte of the Blues, started on the gridiron to protest this numerical advantage but Marvin swept past him and he decided he wait and see happened before entering his protest. As a result of this hesitation no objection was ever filed as Paul swept the field, outrunning Bud McBride, who playing back for the redshirta, to reach the goal line without a hand being laid on him.

Chamberlin and Lyman. The two star showmen of the afternoon were Guy Chamberlin, who proved there was some life in the old boy yet by catching passes, intercepting passes, throwing passes and stopping many plays aimed at his side of the line, Roy Lyman. They served as captains of their respective teams. Guy can still it," too. He caught one pass just as Ted James hit him admidships.

feet went out from under him and he cracked his noggin on the field but after a brief checkup by Dr. Harry Everett, who served as team physician, Guy got back on his feet and continued in the game. Chamberlin played almost the entire game and Roy Lyman, the rancher, who weighs 255 pounds, played the full route. And how he played! He insisted after the game that all he did was it up a little but CZhoppy Rhodes was evidence that he did more than that. Rhodes had a lower lip that had some ideas of becoming a toy balloon as the result of one contact that he made with the big boy on a line play.

Roy laid one on me but he mean to. And even if he did mean to why all right. That big boy can do anything to me and it will be all Rhodes said after the battle when the were sitting around the dressing room, puffing cigarets and trying to remove their mud caked uniforms. Plenty of Mud. The game gone far until most of the numbers on the backs of tbe players were almost obliterated by the mud.

Aside from the long run of the first half found the two clubs engaged in a punting duel, the backs being unable to keep their feet. This trick was made much more difficult by some tough defensive line play. The mud wras not altogether to blame for this absence of offensive punch. It was not until the fourth quarter that either eleven appeared like it was headed for points. Elmer Holm recovered a Red fumble on the Red 12-yard line but the redshirts refused to budge and on the fourth down Howie Kitchen, diminutive Cotner college exstar, attempted a place kick for the Blues.

Bub Weller, who scales 258 pounds at the moment, was thru the Blue line and blocked effort. In the dressing room he was showing the resulting to those who believe It, a large pink circle on his chest, where the oval struck him. Fred Dawson rushed in his first string backfield and with John BrowTi, Falls City coach, in command the Reds put on a sustained march which netted five straight first downs before the Blues finally held. The Longest Gain. The march of the Reds was featured by one ten yard run of which was the longest scrimmage gain either eleven was able to make all afternoon.

Ray Richards, the wrestler, and former Husker tackle was another who played the full game. He gave some demonstrations of his tackles" which he uses in the ring on Jug w'hen the latter was passing and Ray was rushing him. The surprising part of the battle was the ferocity of the play at times. There was little of an offensive by either eleven, in view of the lack of practice as a unit but there was nothing lacking in the defensive work of both teams. Those thousands who saw the game saw Guy Chamberlin in his last football fray.

He said afterwards that this was his swan song. The spring is gone from his legs, ALL-WEST Gi WAD TO PRACTICE' AGMNST IRE FRANNIAN'S TEAM Former St. End Recruits With Forwards.

The rousing ovation which he received when he trotted from the field just before the first half ended must have warmed the cockles of his heart recalling those days when he was a student here and the same cheers went thundering over gridirons for James and Nolzen. Ted James, who played the full route, was a tower of strength for the Blues and Cecil Molzen waa doing hi.s share for the same team at guard. Three members of the 1921 Nebraska team were on the field at one time. Peterson, center on Fred elevens, suited up at the half, unable to withstand the urge any longer.

Depression has swept away the bugalKK) of the coaches have become financial guardians of college athletic systems; the new of rule changes has diminished casualties, and there seems no internal or external conflicts in the offing, should be the most pleasantly peaceful meeting since the association was organized in said W. Cowell of New Hampshire university, secretary-treasurer.

Most of the 400 who will attend the two-day session expressed sympathy for Old McGugin of Vanderbilt university, who is slated for the job of football. McGugin is the first vice president, and according to Cowell, the usual procedure for the first vice pre.sident to become He is listed to succeed Dr. Mai Stevens, recently resigned Yale pilot. Stevens is the fifth to give up a coaching post while occupying the presidency. So Old apparently will have no opposition.

Cowell said the most important matter on the program would be taken up when Lou Little of Columbia broaches the question: our representatives on the rules committee be given voting power or continue to act in an advisory capacity Most coaches believe their representatives should have a vote on the national collegiate athletic rules committee. They claim the committee often fails to heed the advise of coach representatives. Some criticism of the new rule was expected. While most coaches believe this rule has diminished injuries by preventing piling on the ball carrier by other players, attempting to stop crawling, a minority claims It has slowed up the game. The annual debate about the point after touchdown was to continue.

Coming thru their first scrimmage session without Injuries, the All-West gridiron squad preparing for next Monday's annual charity East- West cla.ssic looked fonsard to a practice game at University of California with a team recruited by Ike Frankian, former St. star, and Paul Ford, former Texas end.

This shifted Harry Newman, Michigan quarterback, to left half with Rentner of At right half, and Manders of Minnesota and Horat- mann of Purdue at the fullback posts.

(UP). Those boys and girls who arc reluctant to admit that Gene Sarazen is the greatest golfer in the business tcnlay, should have been here a few days ago.

The British and American champion, armed with nothing more formidable than a sand blaster, shot the first nine of the Miami Biltmore Country club course in 42. In case that 42 sound amazing to you it's simply because you familiar with (1) the Miami Biltmore course and (2) a sand blaster. Par on the first nine is 35. It oughta be 55 with six strokes off for good behavior in the traps. To come within strokes of par with a sad blaster is so amazing as to be almivst unbelievable.

For a sand blaster, which is nothing more than a mashic lick with flat feet, has a normal range of but about 100 yards. But Gene, by laying up the face made a mashie out of the club and averaged 150-160 yards on his drives. The sand blaster is about as fit for putting as a hoe handle. On the greens Gene played a sort of is. one hopped, skipped and ran toward the cup.

Two Holes In Par. And yet, with this club that wa.s built solely for coming out of traps, Sarazen made two holes in par, was never more than one over par, was never in a trap, never three-putted a green, and was never in the rough save on those occasions elected to leave the fairways to save distance. Sarazen played the unique round on a wager w'ith three newspapermen. Gene he could make it in 45 or better. They said he The bet looked very elegant when he took a six on the 590-yard, par 5.

Gene explained that to get one in three he would be forced to endanger his side bet that he catch a trap, by playing a.s close as possible to the chasm on the left of the fairway. He swung. The ball dropped three Inches of the sand. The newspapermen knew then, that Insofar as their chances for winning were concerned Church was out.

The customary procedure is to play a full wood shot and go across the water with the second. second shot here landed almost squarely beside a palmetto tree, and in knee-high grass. His recovery, if you'll pardon the Park avenue, patois, was the damndest shot. Half-wrapped around the tree, and ith one foot hiked up in the air.

But they helped to make the fame of other coaches at other Institutions where they had no trouble getting by. This happens in more than a few cases, but the public at large looks only at results.

The score pilone counts. The coach is expected to win, and unfortunately there is an intricate law which will not permit them all to win all the time. Harry Knox Nominated Head Net Association NEW YORK. (UP). Harry S.

'T'HE gathering of football coaches in New York the next few days the fact that in spite of the many storms and lightnings which strike, no other profession carries a greater number of veterans. Connie Mack is ready to start his fifty-first year of baseball, and no football coach can quite equal that even Stagg, the eminent dean. But Stagg goes back for more than forty years, and the old Yale end the only old timer.

I recall an afternoon when a young husky Georgia coach sent his team on the field against Vanderbilt in 1895. His name was Glen Scobie Warner, since known as Pop, who has worked out more offensive systems than any coach f(X)tball has known. 1895 yesterday, but as I recall it, this game broke up in a row and Warner called his team off the field. Pop has wandered a long way since that afternoon in Cornell, Carlisle, Pittsburgh, Stanford and now back east again. He can almost sing with Kipling: the wind is from the seaward and the Temple bells they There is also Dan McGugin, who went from Michigan to Vanderbilt twenty-eight years ago to turn out a long line of fine teams and keep the affection of every man who played beneath his banner.

Of all the younger coaches, Harry Kipke of Michigan leads the parade. Under guidance the Wolverines have lost only one of their last thirty contests, which is a target for the veterans to shoot at. WHAT ARE COACHES LIKE? A NONCOMBATANT wrote in a few days ago to ask just what football coaches are like. What are human being.s like? Franklin D. Roosevelt, Babe Ruth, Herbert Hoover, Jack Dempsey, Bobby Jones, Babe Dldrikson, Gals worthy, Masefield? There is Bob Zuppke of Illinois, keen, alert, dynamic, a philosopher and a painter when off duty.

He would rather talk to you about Spinoza and Spencer than about forward passing or off tackle plays. There is Gil Dobie of Cornell, silent, taciturn and pessimistic. There is Dr. Marvin Stevens of Yale, on his way to be a leading forceful. There is Hunk Anderson of Notre Dame, vibrant, outspoken, full of fire.

It might be mentioned here that Harry Mehre of Georgia, Bill Alexander of Georgia Tech, Harry Kipkc of Michigan, Fritz Crisler of Princeton, Tuss McLaughry of Brown, Harry Stuhldreher of Vil fact, the great on the quiet side. And yet there is no other profession which holds its performers in a keener other profession which sleeps, eats, drinks, thinks and dreams its job to a greater extent. I recall one veteran who was complaining about his alumni troubles, faculty troubles, a dozen different brands of woe and sorrow. you someone asked. tried to for ten he I There anything else in life that would bring me the same OPTIMISTS AND PESSIMISTS.

point often has been raised why so many coaches are heavily dyed In the deep Indigo of pessimism. For example, Gil Dobie of Cornell. This is one of the simpler questions. In the first place, winning football Is largely a mental attitude. Blocking and tackling fall largely under this domain.

The virinning mental attitude in football must mean the A team for a set-up or an easy game may run Into an explosion at any given moment. Take the case of Hunk Anderson of Notre Dame, Hunk predicted openly that his South Bend contingent would remove Panther hides without much trouble. Hunk at the top of the football optimists. After the Pittsburgh 8b(Kk he changed his philosophy. You might have thought the Notre Dame team he waa bringing to face the Army was practically on its deathbed.

They had to throw off winding sheets to reach the field It happened to be the healthiest bunch of invalids the Army bad ever seen. Overconfidence is one of deepest sins. A desperate team, lifted to the final flame of spirit, is always dangerous. An overconfident team can be wrecked in ten minutes by a much weaker opponent. So one of the hardest coaching jobs Is to keep a team keyed up week after week, especially against some opponent which shown so well, and which looks to be a resting spot for a holiday.

There is another reason. If a coach predicts hi.s team glory is doubled. If he predicts victory and is beaten, most of the blame is thrown his way. It is merely a natural human impulse. Old man psychology Is always an All America.
