Experts Say BY BOB MATHERNE NEA Service Sports Writer One hears much talk these days ebout undefeated football elevens but Florida fans are somewhat chagrined over the fact that the undefeated Florida team getting the nice press notices that some of the other teams are receiving.

Florida happens to be one of the few undefeated elevens and also one of the highest scoring machines They have won seven in a row and should get their eighth victory on Thanksgiving Day. Their ninth not saying victim In this with Tennessee on Dec. 8. The unfortunate part of this record is that it has been made at the expense of teams like Auburn. Clemson, Mercer, Sewanee and Georgia.

Each of these has been beaten at least twice this season, and it is rather hard to get all hopped over fcuch a list of victims. But we learn from Frank S. a thing and if he happened to be on a more prominent team he could be exploited as Howdy Harpster, the Carnegie Tech quarterback, has been. Harpster deserves everything that has been said of him and Platz merits a hundred times more than will be said of him. If he gets the appointment to the military academy just remember the Platz.

And don't be surprised. HE BE SO BAD Bill Roper, the big castigating man of Princeton football, recently gave Chick Meehan, the New York University coach, a severe castigating because Meehan had allowed his name to be used in a testimonial for cigaret. Roper thought it was unethical end a demonstration of poor sportsmanship for a coach to tell his innocent young lambs what kind of weed to pufT. But Meehan can't be so bad after all. Through all his coaching career he has had a fine name for sportsmanship and he gave a fine demonstration of his ethics in the recent game with Missouri.

Bachman is Coach. The head man at Gainesville is Charles W. Bachman, who got a few headlines at Notre Dame and who made hia reputation as a coach at Kansas State.

Bachman got his first glimpse of the Florida team last fall and admitted, after a second glance at the backs on hand, that he never had seen as fast a set of backs Six of them can run the 100 in 10 seconds flat. There are nine in all who are being used this year. Clyde Crabtree, who carries the name because he is from Cicero, 111., is the one they rave the most about. He heads a regular quartet of Brumbaugh, Cawthon and Goodbread, known as the Crabtree, says Bachman, is the smartest quarterback he has ever seen. Not a flaw in his work, it is said.

He kicks with either foot, passes with either hand and runs in a way that reminds one of Red Grange. club, who made him try first.

SlidcS? HARD NAME TO REMEMBER Red Cagle, a young Army back of such distinguished accomplishments that he will make the All-American team almost unanimously, was perhaps the outstanding individual star of the 1928 football season. He, at least, attracted more national attention than any other player. And, paste this in your hat. the Army may spring another halfback next year who will catch the public fancy as firmly as Cagle did. He is Justin Platz, a Cleveland who was a sensation with the Western Reserve team this year.

Platz wants to go to West Point and his friends are now working on the district congressmen for an appointment. It might be added, in justice to the Army athletic department. that no recruiting efforts have been made to get him. Perhaps the West Point officials even heard of him. This fellow Platz is one of the greatest halfbacks of the year on any team in the country.
