Unless Jones shifts Robertson, or perhaps Fullback Jack Banta, to this position, he will have to dig deeply into the reserve, Spartan and freshman squads for material. Jerry Bowman, Bob Berryman and Frank Swirles, each of whom saw a few minutes action as signal-calling reserves last fall; Jack Belloni from the Spartans, and Ray Woods from the frosh will be on hand. In addition, Horace Griffin of taesa, a 180-pounder who did not play frosh ball last fall because of a Dark horse candidate may be Mel Bleeker, who was the Tro- ace ground-gainer as fullback. Jones is considering mov- but he will not see a great deal of the husky 190-pounder in spring practice as Mel is now broad-jumping for Dean wells track varsity. Jones is limited in his experimenting around the quarter berth because too many shifts will leave the fullback position to be played by the man who If he tries out Peoples, Banta and Bleeker at quarter and shifts Bill Musick of Santa Ana, Spartan full last fall, to left half to try to fill the place of Hoffman and Shell, he will have exactly no fullbacks left.

At right half the only varsity candidate besides Robertson is Max Green, but Bob Nelson, hard-hitting blocker, will report from the frosh. At left half, Bill Bundy and Phil Duboski are the candidates from the varsity, from the pounder, comes up freshman. Although Fisk and Winslow are missing from the starting liueup at end, Jones will have sticky- fingered A1 Krueger ready to move up from the second string. Bob Jones, third string last fall, will likely be promoted to right end position. John Stonebraker, second right end in is staying out of the university to work.

Other end candidates include Lew Hindley from the Spartans, and Willmar Bledsoe and Russ Nash from the frosh, on the left side. At right wing, Sal Mena returns from the varsity along with Joe Davis and Bill Savoy from the Spartans. Frosh right end candidates include Fred Stocker, kid brother of Howard who played three years of varsity tackle, and Bob Skarda. missing from left tackle, the leading candidate will likely be Carl Benson of Santa Ana, who went from the Spartans to second string right guard last fall. Roquet of Santa Ana is another candidate of varsity experience.

Bob de Lauer of San Diego will inherit starting berth at right tacklo and Quentin Klenk of Long Beach and Frank Bennett, Spartans, may prove useful as reserves. Don Wilier a former captain at Manual Arts, Los Angeles, and John Aguirre of San Francisco played outstanding ball for the frosh last fall and one of them may break into the varsity first string to pair up with de Lauer. Ash Norris, Bob pal from Oklahoma City, is another tackle candidate from the Trobabe squad. over Harry running guard position although his 175 pounds as some 40 less than Jimmy Moore of the varsity squad returns. Bill Seixas and Ron Thomas will be the left guard candidates from the Trobabes.

Big Ben Sohn is expected to prove a tower of strength at standing guard and Pete Kelin- ich will be back for reserve duty. Hugh Sargent, ineligible last fan, Don Doyle from the Spartans, and Ray Woods from the freshman squad, will also be out forte this position. Ed Dempsey of Los will continue at center, where he proved iron man last fall, while he will have good sup- port here from Morrill of the reserve squad, and Bin Culler and Dick Danahe of the Trobakes.

Gone also is most of last team which placed second to Fullerton at the all-conference meet. Until the present season began Riverside never had lost a meet to any college in the division except Fullerton and Santa Ana, but the Bengals were beaten by San Bernardino last Friday, 79-52. Although Santa Ana will be weakened by the ineligibility of Bob Bryant, its record-breaking shot and discus colossus, Coach John outfit figures to win without too much trouble. Bob Ward and Sam Henderson seem sure of placing one-two in the weight events without the ineligible Bryant. The only event conceded Riverside is the broad jump which Ben Buckner took against San Bernardino at 21:7.

With Jerome Duffy teaming up in the 300 with Wayne Piper and Claude Bassham, the Dons have a chance to shut out Riverside in the dashes just as Riverside has been blanking Santa Ana for years.

Frankly, the 3-year-olds at Santa Anita this season were a bit on the seedy side and I do not think there were any world-beaters behind the Oregon-bred winner. Still, Mioland is improving and he must be given some sort of a chance on that premise, although his effort Saturday certainly should not cause Bimelech or Andy K. any undue alarm.

Mioland, with Jockey Johnny Adams in the saddle, was the best horse in a roughly-run race which resulted in Jockeys Ralph Neves and Alfred Shelhamer being cen sured the stewards. A 20-days suspension for both boys was recommended to the racing board. Gave As Much As Took Mioland, although shut off go ing into the first turn, roughed his foes a bit before and gave as much as he took. Adams got him in a clear position going down the backstretch, moved slowly on the outside with him and have much trouble running down Weigh Anchor through the stretch, winning by a length and a half. time of 1:45 1-5 for the mile and a 16th was creditable, but not impressive.

He was installed the favorite, paying $8 straight, and earning $10,250 first money, thus rounding out a perfect season for Howard. Forty thousand race-goers turned out for the finals and wagered $1,193,728 through the mutuels. This sent the total to $26,540,206, making a daily average of $647,322. Profit Substantia! The fact that the Los Angeles Turf club deducted its legal eight per cent commission this year, instead of the customary six per cent, more than offset the fact that the daily average was below last high of $669,174. Charles S.

Howard, San Francisco sportsman, earned the money-winning honors when cuit carried his silks to victory in the Santa Anita Handicap, and Mioland lengthened his lead to $140,200. Hi C. Hill of Stockton, by virtue of Derby triumph, was second with $47,775 and the Milky Way Farms was third with $29,500. Jockey Basil James, who started the season on top, finished in front of his riding rivals with 47 winners. Douglas Dodson, the apprentice star, second with 37 and Johnny Longden was third at 31.

At the present time football squads of two big Southern universities are going through spring practice without benefit of coaches. Ray Morrison of Vanderbilt took a job at Temple and the first thing he did was to engage Josh Cody of Florida as his line coach. Thus the Commodores and the Gators are on their very own. The press and the public have been inclined to adopt a sympathetic attitude toward the coach- less boys. Out there working without any one to cuss, kick, or yell at them.

Speaking for myself, however, I think it offers the two universities, as well as the boss the opportunity for a noble experiment. Why not continue, not only through spring practice, but right on through the next football season, with teams run and coached by the boys themselves? As far as Vanderbilt and Florida are con- did last year, and they might very well do better. If its publicity and money that a university wants from its football team it achieve those ends any better than by fielding a self-taught team. Everybody would want to see the team play and even minor victories would assume the stature of Rose or Sugar Bowl triumphs. And as for publicity I have been in the newspaper business too long not to know what swell copy such a team would provide.

If its for the fun of it that boys play football what better fun than playing it their own way? As football is played now under a coach the boys are little more than robots carrying out the ideas. There is little or no chance for individual imagination to enter into the game. It might be a good idea to give a player a free hand and let him with a complete knowledge of his capabilities operate on his own for a while. Chicago White Sox.
