you'll always find this pair paying

from the ranks OF these that the

Stage for years has conferred his
attention on developing great quar-
terbacks. His belief Is. a star field
marshal can get A No. l results
from even a mediocre team. That
belief was shared by Napoleon. you
remember. for the great French
leader made the crack that tho size
OF the army didn't make so much
difference as long as the leader was
always with it.
Walter Eckersall, steffen and
Romney, the quarters OF Chicago's

field marshals that Stage has devel
oped to lead his team. And the re-
suit Of his work is shown by the
fact that both Eclkersnll and Steflen

Bethany Ready
For Grove City

GROVE CITY, Nov. 5.-The
Bethany football squad arrived
here last evening. having left
Belhany at four o'clock yesterday
afternoon. The student body AZ
Bethany gave tho squad a fine
scud-off By giving a few rouslng
cheers and a song or two Just be-
fore the car pulled out. Bethany
hackers ara all intensely interest
ed in this afternoons game fnd
anticipate a real gridiron battle.
Since Grove City Is no easy team
to beat it is necessary that the
Bishops keep up On their toes
throughout the 67tire conflict IN
order to come out a winner.
Coach BuIand will probably start
the veteran combination Of Ran
dolph, Jean, Payne and Kelley IN
the backfieId this afternoon. II ~
very probable that Kelley will fill
tho position as quarterback due to
Stewards absence on account o.
injuries.

Year In and year out Ohio State
and Chicago have been the most
consistent contenders for the title
OF any Of the teams OF the Big Ten
Conference.
And this, despite the fact that
coaches ct tho two schools are op-
posites. WIlce at Ohio State Is a
coach Of tho modern school. Stage
at Chicago is a mentor OF the old
football school, and has been on the
coaching lines for years, but who,
unlike many OF the older coaches al
the big schools, has kept pace with
the changes in the gridiron game.
Both Wllce and Stage owe their
success in the main to one thing
they work constantly for the future.
Too many of the present-day men.
tors are satisfied, after building up
a topnotch team, to ride along on
the glory the showing of that flashy
team brings them. And then. in a
year or two, the stars leave school
and the team goes into n slump for
the next couple OF seasons.

over for touchdown and kicked q
field goal.
Around the Big Ten Conference a
sigh OF relief went up when Pete
| Stinchcomb left Ohio State. Other
| teams breathed easier with the star
halfback out OF the way. For Stale
up to that timc had shown nothing
that appeared CLASSY enough to take
the All-American stars place.
But they might have saved their
breath. For Walce, with his Gus
tomary caution. had an ace up his
sleeve.
Tho loss Of StinchtoTnb and Chick
Harley before him was nothing
more than Wilce had expected and
he had looked to the future for this
ever since he first taught them to
roll around on the field.
He really suprlanted them with
Noel Workman and Johnny Stuart,
two boys he had been grooming
while Harley and Stinchcomb had
been starring. It was the great
work Of these two boys who put
over the defeat Of Michigan. Stuart
doing the thing they had been
warned about, a long end run for q
touchdown.
