TEMPLETON MEN LOOK
LONGINGLY FOR GOOD
DRY PRACTICE FIELD
© Like Harry Wolter’s baseball gang, Coach
Dink Templeton’s track men are far behind
__ their workout schedule as a result of con-

tinued cold and rain. Because he has been un- —
able to work his squad out normaily, “jj

& Templeton doesn’t know what the
year may bring but if he could only
have Bunn’s Hank Luisetti in the
high jump and some assurance Ed-

son Burrows would get well, he wouldn’t
complain.

Burrows, who was counted one of the
strongest college distance men in the West,
is suffering from an ankle injury received in
a touch football game and may not round
into shape this year.

Luisetti, of course, will be tied down by
basketball until but a few days before the
first track meet.

How They Stack Up

Here is a resume of Stanford’s possibilities
in order of events:

1oo-yard dash— Voight, Heiserman,
Thompson and Williams. Voight is a vet-
eran. His best mark is 9.9 seconds. Heiser-
man is a transfer from San Mateo and has
done ro flat. Thompson was a good fresh-
man prospect and Fred Williams, though
heavy, has been a point winner in past years.

220-yard dash—Weiershauser, Heiserman
and Voight. The first has done 21.3, the
second 21.5. Weiershauser was a consistent
point winner all the way last year in this as
well as the 440.

44o-yard run—Kneubuhl, Weiershauser,
Malott, Oberg and Slater. In this event,
Weiershauser with a record of 47.5 is, of
course, the best. Kneubuhl and Malott have
both been under 50 seconds.

880-yard run—McCurdy, Malott and Bur-
rows are the leaders here, the former with
a record of 1:53.2 and Malott with 1:56.2.
McCurdy is rated by many as the best half-
mile prospect on the Coast.

Weaker Here
Mile run—Alexander, Beman and March.

HANK LUISETTI LEADS
CAGE SCORERS OF LAND;

 

 

 

 

PLANS RECORD SMASH

 

If sensational Hank Luisetti, Stan-

- ford's greatest basketball player, only

knew what the scoring record was,
he'd know when he had beaten it. But
for some reason the record books dis-
agree and all Hank can do now is to
score so much there won't be any
question.

At the close of the Stanford-Santa
Clara game February 21, he had
scored his 1084th point as a Redshirt.
Of these, 305 were scored as a fresh-
man.

He leads coast conference scorers
for the season by a spectacular mar-
gin with 179 points. Closest competi-
tor is Ball of U. C. L. A. with 110
points. He has three more games in
which to gather eights points for a
new conference scoring record. Since
he is but one point short of an aver-
age of 20 per game, he ought to
make it.

Holder of the official record for
varsity competition is Robert Many of
Lehigh University with 632 points in
three years of varsity play. Hank has
long since passed that mark. How-
ever, Glen Roberts of Emory and
Henry, Virginia, has a four-year total
of 1531 points of which 1239 were
scored in his final three years. Why
his record has not been written into
the books nobody knows. Luisetti will
feel he has really won the world's title
only when he has beaten all records,
official and unofficial.

To beat all marks, Luisetti must pass
the 1200-point stage in the remaining
games on Stanford's schedule .and
garner 332 next year. But since he has
been averaging around 400 per sea-
son in varsity play, it is not the diffi-

_-cult task one would think.

 

 

 

 

GREATEST INDIAN CAGE
TEAM HOLDS OWN PLACE
IN CONFERENCE BATTLE

® Stanford’s perfect basketball record came
to its close in Los Angeles, January 29, when
Sam Barry’s Trojans overcame the Luisetti-
led Indians by a three-point margin.
The score was 39-42.

Next night the enraged Indians
went on a scalping spree and mur-
dered the Trojans 61 to 49 with
Luisetti in his customary lead with 26 points.

That evened up the series and conference
standing. Thus, when U. S. C. dropped one
of two games to California a week later
while Stanford was defeating U. C. L. A.
42-40 and 67-38, it put the Cards in undis-
puted lead. This they bettered subsequently
by defeating California for the third straight
game for the first time in history.

Cards Well Ahead

Only three games remain—the fourth with
California and two more with U. S. C. and
all of them are on Stanford’s court. The
Cards need to win but one to be tied with
the Trojans. Should they win the first two,
the race will be over.

The first Stanford-California game was
reported in the last Buck Bulletin, a Card
victory by a 51-35 margin.

The second also came Stanford’s way in

 

oe of the illness of Jack Calderwood, the

injury to Howell Turner, who had strained
an arch, and the early fouling out of Luisetti.

With 12 minutes to go, the Cards. led
37-30 when Luisetti committed his fourth per-
sonal and Indian supporters felt jitters en
route. Sore arch and all, Turner ran into the
game but it was Captain Dinty Moore, Art
Stoefen and Bob Zonne who rang up buckets
so fast that Stanford was safely away.

History Is Made

The final score was 50-3'7 and for the
first time on record the Redshirts had won
their second successive game from the Bears.

Their next meeting was on California’s
own floor and the Cards found the Nibs
Price men at their best. Their defensive
game was supetb and it was only by the

fast floor work of Luisetti that the John

WEARY BUCKKEEPER
TO FOLD HIS TENT
BEGINNING JUNE 20

© A new Buckkeeper is being sought by the
Great White Fathers of TBMC. The old
one has resigned, effective June 20, 1937, the
end of his second year in office.

It had to come sooner or later and
everybody familiar with the size of
the burden the Buckkeeper must tote
knew it was coming. The decision
was made only after long considera-

tion of the factors involved and the members
of the Club should know what these factors

_ are.

In its beginning the Club was conceived as
a small, closely-knit but strictly informal or-
ganization with a possible membership of
probably not more than 100. On this basis,
its few fundamental rules were laid down,
chief among which was that every cent col-
lected should go to Stanford University in
payment of tuition of needy student athletes.

It was believed that its secretary, or Buck-
keeper, could handle all details of collection,
correspondence, accountancy and editing of
the monthly bulletin without pay and without
undue hardship.

It Wasn't So

Long before the end of the first fiscal year
it became obvious to Murray Draper, the or-
iginal Buckkeeper, that the burden carried
by the Buckkeeper was over the preliminary
estimate by some 700 per cent. In other
words, instead of carrying this detail for a
possible 100 members it had been multiplied
to 700.

Since then it has grown to approximately
850.

Theoretically, this means opening 850 let-
ters per month; endorsing 850 checks; making

850 journal entries; making 850 card index |
entries; making 850 deposit slip entries. And; .

this is but a part of the routine. If payments
are not made by members, it means sending
of delinquent notices, added detail of per-
sonal letters, rendering of accounts.

That's Not All

This takes no account of gathering, sorting
and writing of news for the monthly bulletin;
of preparing monthly financial statements;
of the routine of withdrawing money for tui-
tion payments; of the conduct of membership
campaigns by personal letters; of the personal
letter acknowledgment for every new mem-
ber.

It takes no account of daily trips to the
postoflice; semi-weekly trips to the bank;
routine engagements with coaches, students,
alumni and, of course, the printer.

It takes no account of time devoted to new
devices for keeping interest in the Club alive

BUCK OF THE MONTH CLUB

or to making the Club interesting to poten-
tial members.

It takes no account of personal expense in-
volved for telephone, telegram, transporta-
tion and many other normal costs of running

a show of this kind.
A Hobson's Choice
In brief, whoever is charged with running

the Buck of the Month Club must be in a
position to devote a good share of his day to
it every day. And if he is making his living
at the same time, either his living or the Club
must suffer.

It is the belief of your present Buckkeeper

_ that the Club has not suffered during his in-

cumbency. The same cannot be said for his
income. A newspaper man, unless he is in
the high salary bracket where he wouldn’t
have any time to run the Buckklub anyway,

must use his spare time in outside work to,

build up his income. Of these opportunitiés
your present Buckkeeper could not avail him-
self.

In its final analysis, this becomes the do-
nation, not of service, but of money. What-
ever it is, it has been given gladly and with
a sense it has been a pleasant privilege.

Can't Afford It

But further enjoyment of this privilege the
Buckkeeper must deny himself. It’s a luxury
he can no longer afford.

So convinced was Murray Draper of the
need for caring for some of the extra expenses
to which the Buckkeeper is put, that upon
withdrawing he recommended and had ap-
proved a method of securing from outside
sources $25 per month to pay in part for sten-
ographic services needed by the Club.

Your present Buckkeeper, in withdrawing,
recommends considerably more. Unless the
next Buckkeeper is independently wealthy, he
will find he has been called on to make a con-
siderable personal sacrifice, not only of time,
but of money. If he takes his duties seriously,
he will find that the Buck of the Month Club

will rule his life.
Can't Buy It

The services of a competent Buckkeeper
are not something money can buy. All money
can do is to make it possible for somebody to
undertake the work. If you entered the mar-
ket for a man to do the work the Buckkeepers
of record have done, you would have to find
a separate source of income far beyond any-
thing to date proposed.

But we don’t want a hired man. We want
a guy who will put his heart into the work and
whose stomach won’t suffer because of the
overuse of his heart.

We think we have solved the financial part
of the problem. We think we have found a
source of income that will give the next Buck-

February, 1937

keeper at least a reasonable down payment on
the time he must give.

Next step is to find the man.

There is another very real reason for the
current Buckkeepet’s resignation—a situation
that can be corrected only by resignation.

One-Man Show
The TBMC has become too much of a

one-man show. In two years the Buckkeeper
has jumped from secretary to dictator and
that’s no business for any organization.

More and more the original enthusiasm of
members has waned, partially because the nov-
elty has worn off, partially because members
felt the central organization would take care
of things.

It can’t go on indefinitely. Strong local
committees must carry on their work as they

did in the early phases of the Club’s history. —
\ More frequent trips to the field should be

made by representatives at Stanford. There
has been no tour of California in behalf of
the Club since the current Buckkeeper took
office.

The burden must be shared. If it isn’t,
the four months left in which to find a new
Buckkeeper won’t be long enough.

Well, that’s that. The Buckkeeper awaits
your pleasure and solicits your comments
and recommendations. The one-man show
is over and the 1000-man show is about to
begin.

STANFORD GOLF STAR
IS TOURNEY MEDALIST

Although Jack Wallace, Stanford’s long
lean economics scholar and great golfer, won
his way to the finals in the Pacific Coast in-
tercollegiate golf championships at Del
Monte February 20, and had been medalist
in the qualifying round, he was trimmed
next day in the gruelling finals 5 and 3 by
Roger Kelly, Loyola law student.

The second flight was won by Bill O’Neal
of Stanford, who poured it on 13 and 11 to
win from Alan McLenegan of California.

RUGGERS RANK WELL UP
DESPITE LOSS TO U.S.C.

A single loss has come to Stanford’s Rug-
by football team, this at the hands of
Southern California’s Trojans on February
13 by a 0-3 score, leaving the Indians well-
up in the running for the title.

Previously, they had defeated the Palo
Alto All Blacks 9-0, the U. C. L. A. 15 by
a 6-5 score and the Stanford Medics by a
rout. On February 20 they asked Univer-
sity of San Francisco down to the Farm
and smacked over their guests 11-0.

TEMPLETON MEN LOOK

To date, Alexander has proved strongest
with a record of 4:28. Little opportunity has
been afforded any of the three this year to
show what they can do.

Two-mile run—The same as the mile with
Emanuel added. Alexandet’s time of 9:51 is
the best.

High hurdles—Hewitt, Hawkins and Bale,
with the first leading at 15:3, not at all
startling compared with a Klopstock. Hewitt
is another San Mateo J. C. transfer.

and Moller. The first leads at 6 feet 2 and
5-8 inches.

Pole vault—Weak, with Gill at 13 feet
leading Vic Boore, a San Mateo J. C. trans-
fer.

Javelin—Hardin, Walker, Shaw, Brown-

ton and Kellogg. Hardin’s best is 192 feet.

Broad jump—Leo Madlem with a 23 feet
10 inch leap is the best of the lot with Voight
next.

Take it all in all, Templeton has more to
hope for than to count on. But he has
achieved miracles before on what seemed
none too hopeful.

NO AWARDS YET

The Selection Committee had not for-
warded to the Buckkeeper the list of athletes
to be given tuition awards for the Winter
Quarter as the Bulletin went to press. It
was understood, however, that this list would
include 23 full awards and parts of four
others. This will be in addition to an extra
award to Bob Dakan made possible through
the entry by “Bill” Pemberton of Los Ange-
les of 115 one-month memberships—or $115.
These memberships will not be carried as
part of the Buckklub roster since they are
temporaty.

LARRY ROUBLE GOES

TO ARIZONA POSITION ”

Larry Rouble, star guard of the “vowing
Sophs” and assistant freshman grid coach
at Stanford last Fall, has been appointed
head coach of the Phoenix, Arizona, high
school football team.

The school board had been dickering with
Sammy Baugh of T. C. U., who instead
flew East to talk terms with a professional
football league management.

Rouble was expected to draw the same
salary as was offered Baugh—$3,o00 per
year.

Two weeks later, the position of head of
the physical education department and head
football coach of the new Sacramento high
school was offered to Frank Alustiza, quar-
terback and Rouble team-mate, as well as
assistant freshman coach. At last reports,
Frankie had not signed the contract.

LETTERS FROM PEOPLE

The Buckkeeper regrets being unable to
publish the regular feature, “Letters From

tin. He looks forward, however, to a lot of
comments during the next couple of weeks
and will probably have to make room for

an overflow.

INDIAN CAGE TEAM STILL ON TOP

(Continued from Page 1)

Bunn five emerged on the long end of a
36-32 score and set a winning record Stan-
ford has prayed fof since 1921.

Two nonconference games had meanwhile
been won by the Cards, a flood-benefit
meeting with. University of San Francisco
giving the Indians a 51-34 victory and a game
at Stanford resulting in a win for the latter
over Santa Clara 54-25.

Expensive Win

The latter was a costly victory, for Bob
Zonne left the floor with a dislocated shoul-
der and shortly thereafter Luisetti was seen
to limp off the court with 1 an a aggravated

How serious either injury might be could
not be determined as these lines were
written but neither had been able to appear
for practice. Luisetti, it appeared, was the
least seriously hurt.

While all these things were going on,
the freshman quintet, coached by Wytze
Gorter, had enjoyed one of the greatest
strings of unbroken victories in Stanford
history. At last they toppled, in their second

TRACK, FIELD MEN WIN
FIRST TWO MEETS BUT
RECORDS ARE MEDIOCRE

@ Cold weather in January and slushy
practice fields in February, together with in-
eligibilities in March kept Coach Dink Tem-
pleton’s track and field team more or less
behind the eight ball, yet they were
able to win their first two meets by
YA topheavy scores.

: They had started off their season
on March 13 with an intersquad
meet in which not a single record matched
performances in like events over at Berke-
ley where University of California men on
the same day were working out.

A week later on a heavy track the Indians
defeated Flint Hanner’s Fresno State squad
98 to 33, allowing the visitors but two first
places—the high jump and the pole vault.

     
   
 

Beat Uclans

On the following week the Indians trav-
eled to Los Angeles where they defeated
U.C.L.A. 88 to 43, yielding four first places
to their hosts—the 440, the 2-mile, the jave-
lin and the relay.

Outstanding Stanford performances in the
latter meet included Mahurin’s victory in
the 880 in 1:57.4; Morrison’s 6 feet 3%4
inches leap in the high jump and Pete Za-
gar’s discus toss of 149 feet 714 inches.

Absent on a debating trip was Student
Body President and national champion shot-
putter Jim Reynolds and temporarily ineli-
gible were Jim Kneubuhl and John Hewitt,
the latter two TBMC lads. Also on the
TBMC lists are Jack Weiershauser, Vic
Boore, Stan Heiserman, Tom Montgomery
and Clayton Burrows.

Detailed results of the track meets follow:

BUCKKLUB PAID $2,705
TO KEEP BALL ROLLING
DURING LAST QUARTER

 

 

 

It was no picnic for the Selection
| Committee to determine for the
Winter Quarter who was going to
get tuition awards and who was not,
with the result that the list couldn't be
published in the last bulletin.

But here she be and the total is
23 full awards and 4 partial awards.
The sum involved is $2,705 and even
at that price the field couldn't be
covered. More than a dozen boys
were left waiting at the post. Four
included in the Buckklub list had only
about I! per cent of their tuition
paid.

it was in the Fall Quarter, but for

BUNN BOYS WIN SECOND
SUCCESSIVE CONFERENCE
HOOP TITLE IN PLAYOFF

@ It was long drawn out and it was nip
and tuck at the finish, but Coach John
Bunn’s 1936 championship basketball squad
drove through a terrific campaign to succeed

themselves on the Coast conference

B~ throne by winning two straight
fu from Washington State at Pullman

March 26 and 27.

Just a month earlier the Cards
had assured themselves of the Southern
Division title by overcoming the Trojans at
Palo Alto 39 to 34 and 47 to 38.

A week later, already champions, they let
down sufficiently to permit California to
win from them 44 to 31. They had previ-
ously taken three straight from California,
three out of four from U.S.C. and four

straight from U.C.L.A.

In all the long campaign they dropped
only two games, this including their barn-
storming tour of the East coast and Mid-
west.

Hank Is High
The whirlwind campaign of Hank Lui-

setti toward a new national scoring record
was severely checked in the final games
with the Trojans and California, as well as
in the playoff with Washington State, but

“his count nonetheless rolled on to 410 of

which 208 were scored in southern division
conference play.

His total conference score was 226, a
mark never before approached.

Meanwhile, the Stanford freshmen had
finished their greatest season in a decade,
winning their final game from California to
take both the series and the unofficial fresh-
man title. The score was 49 to 37 with Tom
Seibert scoring 17 points for the Indians.

Boys Come Through

To return to the Varsity’s playoff with
Washington State, many observers in the
Bay region had expected the Indians to fold
up before the rapidly improving Cougar
attack. The Stanford season had been un-
usually long and the layoff between the
final southern division game and the title
ee

 

2
play in Pullman was too long. Besides, it
was broken into by final examinations and
Easter vacation.

Stanford’s combination man-to-man and
zone style of play, however, baffled the Cou-
gars, who at the same time were forced to
put two men on Luisetti, holding him to
eight points.

The Cards came from behind in the final
three minutes of the first game to win by
three points after the two teams had been
tied 14-14 at half time. Four minutes before
the close of the half Stanford had led 14
to 7.

Led All the Way

Although the second game was closer in
the final count of 41-40, Stanford led all
the way from the latter part of the first
half, sometimes by the margin of only a
single point but always enough. Either Lui-
setti, Turner or Calderwood, who scored 32
points among them in this encounter, came
in with field goals whenever the Cougars
threatened to draw abreast.

While congratulations were being voiced
on the return to the team next year of the
majority of the first string players and the
addition to the squad of promising material
from the championship freshmen, only one
“sour” note was sounded for the 1938 season.

Possibility loomed that John Bunn would
be offered the directorship of athletics at
University of Kansas, a position he admitted
he would seriously consider accepting. Press
dispatches from Lawrence, Kansas, at the
time these lines were written indicated that
Bunn’s name was at the head of the list of
candidates the University was considering.

HANK IS PICKED

Angelo (Hank) Luisetti, Stanford’s Pub-
lic Benefit No. 1, was chosen on March 8 by

metropolitan basketball writers in New York _

as the “finest visiting player to perform in
New York during the season.”

Only one writer declined to pick Luisetti.
He gave as his reason the fact that he had
not seen Luisetti play. Hank was given credit

for almost singlehandedly breaking up Long .

Island University’s record string of 42 suc-
cessive victories.

VOWERS MADE MILLION

Receipts from athletic activities at Stan-
ford during the reign of the “vowing sopho-
mores” passed the million dollar mark for
the three-year period, the Board of Control
has announced. The receipts were $285,399
in 1933; $345,415 in 1934, and $338,455 in
1935. Additional revenues came from con-
cessions and program sales.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE

 

A PLEASURE

Dear Buck: Enclosed find $12 represent-
ing my contribution to TBMC. It is a
pleasure to see Stanford going forward.

LAWRENCE FRANK, 17,
Los Angeles.

Business before pleasure, always, the Buck-
keeper would like to see other Buckklubbers
forget to forget, and get in dues.

THIS ONE DID

Tom: Didn’t know I was so far behind.
Keep up the good work.

Hernie Huiskamp,
Keokuk, Iowa.

Far behind in work, the Buckkeeper will.
try to keep it good.

WHOLE FAMILY IN_

Dear Tom: Here’s another $12 just to
make the family unanimous. Wish there
were more of us but that’s all there is. Good
luck to the Buckkeeper and may his reserve
never lose what his waistline gains!

Rocer EHRMAN,
Menlo Park.

To the many Ehrmans a fervent wish
from the Buckkeeper there were many more,
as he has previously wished for more of the

- Santa Paula Teagues, all Buckklubbers.

GOOD STANDING CONTINUED
Dear Tom: Just so I will continue to be a
member in good standing, I enclose dues for
a new member—A. W. Warner of Chicago.
GARDINER SYMONDS, 724,

Chicago, III.
Other Bucks please note how few members
kept in good standing this month, as indi-

cated by list of new members on page 4.

OLD MASTER JOINS
Dear Tom: Enclosed find membership for
Dr. Forrest C. (Phog) Allen, basketball
coach, University of Kansas. Doc, inci-
dentally, is my old basketball coach. He is
in the market for players as much as we are
and needs some funds. However, Jack Cal-
derwood sold him on the idea of the TBMC.
Joun W. Bunn,
Stanford University.
To Brother Buck Allen of Lawrence,
Kansas, double-duty thanks for donation
both of Buck and Bunn.

TWO-WAY THANKS
Dear Tom: Thanks a lot for the gentle
reminder. One could not possibly be of-
fended on receiving a notice for such a

worthy cause. My son will be joining soon.

Thanks, father; welcome, son; no offense

VOICE VIA VENEZUELA

Buckkeeper: Just a note to tell you to
change my address, since I will be running
around in the Argentine for the next few
months and am not sure I will get back to
this end of the Continent.

In a December bulletin I noticed a letter
from Buck Klauber of San Diego suggesting
the paper be sent to all paid-up members of
the alumni association and contributing $5
for postage. I believe his idea an excellent
one and I am enclosing my check for the
same amount to carry on this work.

COUPLA COMPLAINTS

Dear Tom: What is this I hear about
you resigning? I realize that from your per-
sonal point of view every possible cause can
exist making it seem advisable for someone
else to shoulder the burden. However, with
scholarships in such a precarious way, I feel
a change at this time would be a detriment.
I am all set to start a movement to draft you

against your own wishes.

Louis R. VINCENTI,
Pasadena.
Dear Tom: I understand you were think-
ing of giving up the secretaryship of the
club. I can understand your reasons there-
for, as I know it takes a great deal of your
time. Personally, I will be sorry if this comes
to pass, as I feel the success of the club has
been, in large measure, the result of your
activities.
H. G. JorcENsEN,

Salinas.
With modest blushes for kind words, the
Buckkeeper nonetheless feels a change will

benefit both Club and Clubwielder.

vVvvv

WE GOT IT ANYWAY

Dear Tiny: I am one of those lads who
cheered you all the way from the back-
ground and who has prayed for victories
over our all too well organized opposition,
but have done nothing actively to assist you
and your hard-working henchmen.

May I take this opportunity to tell you
that I personally think you have done a

splendid job, and regardless of the team’s
standing this past season, you did a remark-
able job with the material at hand.
Herewith I enclose check for $24 for the
TBMCG, since if I were put on the monthly
basis I would probably fail to perform. My
best to the. boys who have worked so dili-
gently for the Club. ,

Bell via Man Who Was Cheered.

 

INDIAN BASEBALL NINE
SURPRISINGLY STRONG
EARLY SEASON PROVES

@ So little space has college baseball re-
ceived in recent years that news in mid-
March Stanford’s nine was undefeated in
conference competition came to Card dia-
mond adherents as a distinct sur-
prise.

So hopelessly outclassed had the
1936 team been that nobody sus-
pected what Coach Harry Wolter

was preparing as a treat. And a treat it

 

another fine feather to the cap of Joe Gon-
zales, Troy moundsman, for he not only
pitched his fifteenth straight collegiate win,
but actually hurled a no-hit, no-run game
against the Cards, who had been slugging
the ball heavily from the first of the season.

While Gonzales was holding the Indians
hitless, his own mates found Furman and
Weiershauser for 14 safe blows good for
8 runs.

Card Pitchers Johnson and Rasmussen

fared no better in the second game, although
the score was a lot closer. The Trojans

Overwhelming victories over U.C.L.A.
and Fullerton J.C. swimming teams were
climaxed by Stanford’s mermen at Minne-
apolis, March 27, when the Cards captured
five points in the national intercollegiates for
ninth place.

The Indian aquatic stars are Weatherbe,

Clarke and Scatena in the 60-yard free

was, for by March 20 Stanford had twice
defeated Santa Clara, twice trimmed Sct.
Mary’s and had won their only engagement

with U.C.L.A.

Three days later the Bruins turned on the
Indians and beat them by a score of 6 to 5.
So well did Southern California’s Trojans
profit from this lesson that they put it to
devastating use two days later, dumping the
Cards quite a distance down the ladder by
taking a double-header.

This damage done, the Cards later re-
covered to beat the San Diego Marines
twice but this, alas, didn’t figure in con-
ference standing.

No Hits, No Runs
The first game with the Trojans added

~The Indians got only 7 hits good for 9

runs, all of them in the seventh inning.

Best slugger of the Indians is Wally De
Witt, sophomore outfielder and footballer.
In the first St. Mary’s game he hit safely
five out of six times at bat.

WINS DOUBLE TITLE

Stanford’s Rugby fifteen by virtue of a
9 to 0 victory over. California at Stanford
March 6 became the undisputed title hold-
ers both in the intercollegiate conference
and in the Rugby Union.

Outstanding star in the Card lineup
against the Bears was Wayne Richardson
who kicked three penalty goals at varying
distances and angles at the rate of three
points a kick. His first shot with “Doc”
Luckett holding, was from 4o yards out at a
difficult angle. The other two were from 20
and 25 yards out.

NETMEN ROUTED
Southern California’s powerful tennis
team defeated Stanford’s netmen at Los An-
geles March 27 by an 8 to r score. Seward’s
singles match victory over Troy’s Hall 5-7,

POLOISTS WIN

Stanford’s polo team made it two straight
over Oregon State College at Corvallis, late

coming from behind in the last chukker to
win the second 1014 to 514. Russ Rasmussen
starred in both games, scoring six goals in
