TROJANS' GR|D|RON
OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT
May Match Clean Slate OF
Last Season Despite
Loss of Stars.
BY VICTOR G. SIDLER,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

LOS ANGELES, Calf, September 10.
Preliminary foot ball prospects at the
University of Southern California would
indicate that its gridiron fates for 1929
again are resting in horn of plenty"
The season is being heralded as prob
ably no less brilliant than the record
Of last year. Then the Trojans tied
with California for the Pacific Coast
Conference championship. scored a VIC
tory over Notre Dame by two-touch-
down margin and turned in an unde-
feated record to gain recognition as one
Of the country's leading machines.
Coach Howard Jones has an album
dance of good material to equalize the
loss Of five of last years veterans. From
the sophomore crop of 1928 he expects
to develop his backfield prospects. He
has two big holes to fill with the loss
Of Don Williams, sensational quarter
back, and Lloyd Thomas, halfback.
Graduation also shook the entire left
side of the line. Jones has indicated
he will rebuild 1t by shifting Francis
Tappaan, star right end for two seasons,
to left end; Capt. Nate Barrager Is
slated to be changed over to left guard
from center; George Dye, 234-pound
Alabama linesman, may take Barrager's
post. The left-tackle position seems to
be a toss-up between Cecil Hoff. under
study of Jesse Hibbs, all-American, and
Bob Hall, 215-pounder from Dallas,
Tex. .
On the right side. Jesse Shaw and
Bob Gowder, varsity subs OF 1928, loom
strongest for right guard. Frank An
thony may put his 200 pounds at right
tackle and Tony Steponovich seems the
best bet for right end.
The backfield seems not hard prob
lem for Jones to solve. He has Russ
Saunders, versatile plunger. and re-
garded as highly as Williams, at quar-
terback. with Marshall Dufheld, ID
year-old veteran, a capable understudy.
Harry Edelson and Marger Aspit ap-
pear about equal at inside halfback.
while the outside post seems destined
for Ernie Pinckert, San Bernardino big
gun of last years freshman squad. An
other product of the yearling ranks,
Jim Musick, 200-pounder looms as the
outstanding choice for fullback.
The schedule for Southern California,
however, tempers the enthusiasm of its
hackers. Seven Conference games and
intersectional contests with Notre Dame
at Chicago and Carnegie Tech here
combined to set up difficult program
for the Trojans to wade through sue
cessfully. Just to make the lineup a
bit tougher. the Conference games with
Stanford and California come on sue
cessive Saturdays and a quick mid-sea-
son jaunt must be made to Chicago to
meet Knute Rockne's forces.

How much work do you give your
team on defense?" I asked Jimmy
DeHart, a Warner pupil at Pitt,
when Jimmy was coaching a fine
Washington and Lee eleven. About
half an hour a week." he snapped
back. Defensive play is not Of the
value it used to be. Coaches have
to stress attack or they are out of
luck. They depend chiefly on fight
ing spirit to stop the other fellow.
To break up passing attack few
general principles are involved that
all stress-rushing the passer and
covering ten eligible men. But there
happen to be five men eligible to
receive a forward pass and usually
but four to cover them. Some teams
get q fifth an devon sixth into the
defense by dropping back guards
when they are sure a pass Is COM
ing. But Pop Warner gets time.
Pop drops back the five middle men
of his line when a pass is pulled.
Nine men to cover five. They spread
into the backfield fan fashion. Only
the end rush the passer. My how
they do It'll
Just look at the downfield ter
ritory in the accompanying sketch.
Aren't those five eligible men COW
cred? Launching successful aerial
attack versus such lay out Is i'm
possible. Pop goes most of them
one better. Opponents passes are
often boomerangs. Warmers men
run them back for touchdowns, as
the Army learned last year.

Tennessee has back virtually the same
team that last year went through unde-
feated and is not making a secret of
its hopes and expectations for this year.
P. B. Parker, director of athletics, says
that the team will not have the element
of surprise in its favor and that, conse-
quently, 1t will be more difficult to win
important games. TenneSSee's biggest
game is with Vanderbilt. and Wander
bits possibilities are just about as in
teresting as its own. The other games
that Tennessee looks forward to with
greatest interest are with Alabama,
Florida. Kentucky, South Carolina and
Georgia Tech.
McEver Is Great Back.
McEver last season was rated as one
of the best backs in the country, and the
Volunteers expect him to fill the same
role this Fall. He is unquestionably a
great foot ball player. Hickman, half
back, and Dodd, quarterback, are not as
good as McEver. but both are excep-
tional players. Another star is Howard
johnson, who Is expected to be one of
the best tackles in the South, or any
where else, for that matter. Besides
these four stars Tennessee has IL letter
men in uniform. In fact, the varsity will
be composed entirely Of men who won
their letters year ago, while from the

Columbia University's foot ball team

system of calling signals and return

Only in emergencies will the huddle

Crowley believes the huddle has
delayed the game and that it is not
as effective as the old method.

signals" says Crowley, "he can see
at glance just where the defense
is strong or weak. He has every
thing before his eyes and if the de-

signals off-without returning to the
huddle-and shift his attack ac-

On the cinderpath Edwards, who

Edwards has been easily the out

one Of the most versatile gridironers.
