special excursion riday noon San Jose is favored because of many 'factors The Spartans have a squad of fifty two well condi tioned young giants They are coached by Dud De Groot who led to twelve wins of thirteen games last year and by Glen Warner exponent of the greatest deceptive offen sive football has known The Spartans are playing on their own field before probably 10000 rabid fans victoiy mad over the 1 im pressive wins San Jose has rolled up over St Montana 'State Texas A I and California Ram biers Once again the Spartans are leading the United States' in scoring and seem due to 'repeat their national victory last season The Spartans will be heavier than Nevada Regulars Out On the other hand Nevada has1 less than two dozen good players There is not a single speedy back upon whom Coach Jim Aiken can rely to the John Polish triple threat back and John Sala sturdy end will be out of action with injured knees But despite all these odds Coach Aiken is confident that his Wolf Pack will give the aspirations of San Jose quite a jolt The Spartans yet run up against players who can hit with the skill power and fury of Nevadans a chance that hard charging linemen may blast through the huge Spartan for ward wall and spoil the famous Warner spinners and double re verses before those dazzling de ceptive plays get going All of the teams San Jose has played so far have been on the defensive trying to stop the mul tiple bafflers concocted by Pop Warner and De Groot There is a question how the victory gored Spartans will react to the pile driving smashes of Vinson and Beloso who have led Nevada to nearly 500 yards gains from scrimmage in two Those are two small chances but Aiken is staking his hopes upon them toyfall in line with the upset parade started by Pacific Oregon and

Dizzy Dean and all the rest Gomez with a tradition and a record to uphold will go after his seventh straight world series vic tory opposed by a tender youth who was pitching sand lot ball in Decatur Ill when the Yankee southpaw won his first world series game against the Cubs in 1932 The kid who will try to succeed where Dizzy Dean Carl Hubbell Lon Wameke Hal Schumacher red itzsimmons and Cliff Mel ton failed is Gene Thompson called Junior by his team mates McKechnie Desperate Bill McKechnie desperate be cause his aces Paul Derringer and Bucky Walters have been licked in the first two games will send a baby of the diamond out to do a man sized job He has no alter native but neither McKechnie nor Thompson are afraid of the task' failed me yet in a clutch I have confidence that come through in the toughest spot ever put him said McKechnie In the vital National League series between the Reds and St Louis a i a Is McKechnie picked Thompson as his opening pitcher and won with him in a tough game But still a great big jump from Columbia in the fall of 1938 to a world series triumph in the fall of 1939 If Thompson makes it be in a class with Babe Adams who pitched and: won? three world series games for the Pittsburgh Pirates in 1909 Since then only Paul Dean of the Cardinals ever has won a world series as a kid pitcher And of all the pitchers Thomp son should be fated to hurl against he catches Gomez lucky as the day is long Look at his 6 and 0 record He won his first game from the Cubs in 1932 Since then he has had the Yankee bats swinging on his side Jn 1936 hewon two games The Yanks made 31 runs for him Last fall he was deadlocked with Dizzy Dpan 3 3 when rankie Crosetti hit a homer which decided the game Gomez already had been taken out for a pinch hitter but never theless he got credit for the win 6 3 DiMaggio following with a 2 run homer after wal lop Gomez Is Lucky Gomez is lucky and he believes in hexes superstitions jinxes He has won three all star games and lost only one That one was on Crosley ield here a year ago The Reds playing on the all star Na tional team were largely respon sible for that defeat Some of the National League supporters hail this as an encouraging sign But luck good or bad fortune high or low Thompson hope to win unless the Reds make some runs for him In New York the Reds made one run got one man to second base and made six hits one of them an infield bargain a starvation diet for any pitcher The Yanks Adherents say this series will be 1927 1928 all over again the Ruppert would have it 'and the way the Yanks are going to try to make it The Reds rested riday The Yanks worked out for an hour and a half and DiMaggio who has made two cheap infield hits engaged in 15 minutes of hitting practice Every seat in the
