ONE WAY FOOTBALL STREETS NOT NEW

Roy Riegels' history making dash in the wrong direction on Pasa- dena football field New Years day contributing to the joy Of Georgia Tech but not doing his University of California team a great deal of good, was not a trail blazing run in the annals of foot ball.
 A classmate of Ellis Cyphers, Penn State guard of two decades ago, recalled that Cyphers got his traffic signals missed at New Ha- ven in a game against Yale in 1906, and ran the wrong direction after he was first headed right for certain touchdown.
 Cyphers, who was a great line man, broke through and blocked a Yale punt deep in the territory defended by the Nittany Lions He picked up the ball and set. sail for the Yale goal, with a team mate offering rear guard defense against any Blue tacklers.
 As he neared the goal line, the racing Lion backed and seeing no Yale players near, concluded that something must be wrong. Touch downs could scarcely be had for the asking like that, so he decided he must have been going the wrong way and turned back to- ward his own goal line. His team-mate tried to steer him back on his own course but all was con fusion and finally Cyphers was downed by Yale man about the line The Ellis eventually won the game 10 to 0, the only team to score on Penn State that season.

BAGSHAW CASE
 IS UNDECIDED
Coach Muddle at Univer- sity of Washington
 Still Up in Ar

SEA TT l. E, Jan. 21.-Whether Enoch Bagshaw will remain as head football coach at the Univer sity of Washington is still ques- tion, with the Student Board Of Control insisting he be busted and the Faculty Athletic committee as strongly determined that he re- main.
 With the two bodies deadlocked, it is up to President Spencer. to determine whether Bagshaw will finish up his three year contract.
 President Spencer said he will be guided by legal phases. The dispute is confronted with the compromise proposal of the faculty committee to add Bjrkfield as coach to the staff and keep Bag shaw at the head.
 The Student Board of Control has turned to a lawyer for legal advice in the event President Spencer denies their plea.
