Rentz, who was born without any

only by a great effort can he focus
his vision upon any object.
Yet Frank Rentz, now "a, got

CLOTHES get verdict
A young lawyer of my acquaint-

California with forty-fve suits of
new clothes and the samc number
of new shirts, neckties and other
male adornments. He is a smart
young lawyer but had always Leen

friends asked what had happened
to him in California.
He had gone out there to try a
lawsuit against a big oil company.
1t was doubtful case hat the head
of his law firm had refused to
touch. The young man took it on
"a contingent fee; one-ouarter of
what he recovered for his client.
He was confident that he could
make any jury of reasonable men

ment has fixed lis francs per

lines" which connect the individual
brain cells with each other.
Science now regards each cell as
an electric battery, connected with
all the others and the rest of the

transmit impressions and sensations

There are perhaps fifteen billion
cells in the average brain, arranged
in orderly patterns. The power Of
the mind depends upon the number
of these cells that are utilized.
Most of us use only a tiny frac-
ton of our brains. Probably the
ablest minds that ever functioned

by use, by the effort to think more
and more clearly about new and
unfamiliar things. Most of us are
just too lazy to do our own think

CHICAGO, Oct. 81. - The Big
Ten football race reaches the half
way mark tomorrow with Michi-
gan. the favorite, and Iowa, the
darkhorse, attempting to draw
away from the field.
Iowa's conference leadership will
be challenged by Minnesota in the
days most important Big Ten bat
tie at Minneapolis.
Michigan will attempt to win its
18th straight game and hold its
place among the leaders by chas-
tising the young Chicago team at
Stagg field.
Purdue, still entertaining title
hopes despite it's tie with Mime
sofa, will be after its second con-
ference victory in a homecoming
battle against Wisconsin, twice
beaten, at Madison.
Northwestern and Ohio State,
each beaten once, will battle at
Columbus in game that will rel
egate one or the other of the Sec
ond division barring a tie.
Two intersectional games in this
territory will see Notre Dame and
Pittsburgh, both beaten last week,
meeting at South Bend, and Mich
igan State engaging Syracuse at
Lansing.
The other two Big Ten teams,
Illinois and Indiana, are idle, hav-
ing opened the season a week early
in September.
Victories over Northwestern and
Wisconsin have started champion
ship talk in Iowa City, and $500
supporters, the biggest group to
attend an out of town game in
years, will be solidly behind Iowa
| in their Minnesota invasion.
Minnesota IS TT tie with Purdue
in which the Gophers outplayed
the Boilermakers, and 713 victory
over Pittsburgh, regarded as one
of the strongest eastern teams
established Coach Bernie Bier
mans team as the favorite.
Michigan's stout defense should
halt Chicago's attack and enable
the Wolverines to coast to COM
paratively easy win by small
score, just enough to be comfort
able.
Wisconsin has been tough fol
Purdue for years.
The Northwestern Ohio State
game looks like an even battle.
Notre Dame is still in the fog
after the Carnegie Tech defeat,
and Pitt is a Slight favorite. II
is we'll to remember, however, thai
Notre Dame has lost only two
games in South Bend in 80 years
to Carnegie Tech in 1928 anc
Southern California in 1881.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 27.-Three
cripples were among the 33 Loyola
University football players Coach
Tom Lieb shepherded aboard a
train last night for Albuquerque
where they will attack the Univer-
sity of New Mexico eleven tomorrow
afternoon.
Eddie Atkinson, star Negro half
back, was one of the cripples, nurs-
ing a charley horse which was not
expected, however, to keep him from
the lineup tomorrow. F. Schroeder,
guard, and Kermit Kyitzke, tackle,
were suffering from bruises sustain
ed when they crashed together in a
final workout.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. 27.-Soccer
teams of the University of Califor-
MIA and the University of California
at Los Angeles will meet for the
first time when the Bruins enter
tain their Berkeley cousins at 10y
ola field here, probably Dec. 2.
The Bruins organized their first
soccer team two weeks ago. Gene
Walsh, South African Olympic ath-
lete, is coach.
On their local visit, the Bears also
will meet the Los Angeles junior
college team.
PASADENA, Oct. 81. Don Ken
nedy, 1873, tapped out Ground win
over George Dundee, 1874, in the
main event of the weekly fight card
at the Pasadena arena last night.
The bout was slowed to dead walk
during most of the rounds.

University of Arizona football squad
consisting of 30 members, left last
night for Las Cruces, N. M, where
it will make bid for Border con-
ference victory over the New Mex

BRUINS STAR
OUT IF GAME

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 81. Up) -
A staggering blow was oealt U.C.L.
A. football hopes today when Capt.
Lee Coats, brilliant center, was rele-
gated definitely to the sidelines for
an indefinite stay.
Nursing a crippled foot, Goats will
be in no condition to play against
the conference leading University OF
Oregon team tomorrow, DR.. George
o. Berg, team physician, announced.
Although the announcement came
as no sudden surprise, the news ne
vertheless was a sad blow to local
hearts. With the giant captain out,
a glaring hole appears in the Bruin
line. Coach Bill Spaulding has been
drilling three substitutes to replace
him, but none has shown indications
of anything approaching Goats
power or ruggedness.
Phil Nordli, Duke Trotter and
Bill Merrill were Spaulding's choices
for the vacant position. The Bruin
mentor plans on rotating them in
succession in order to provide fresh
ness at least, at the pivot post.
The Bruins went through a fast
workout yesterday, drilling new and
more deceptive passing plays. Al
though the Bruins showed up well
in this department against Loyola
last Saturday, Spaulding added a
few new tricks to their collection to
shoot against the Webfeet.
Workouts we're cancelled today to
turn over the field to the visiting
squad. The Oregon players, immed-
lately after arriving this morning,
were to rest until afternoon before
donning uniforms.

men Of Troy the favorites. Experts
predicted freely that a single break
would decided the battle between
tn 1882 champions and the team
that has been pointing, mentally and
physically, for this single clash since
the opening of the season.
Both lineups were weakened by
injuries. Troy had Bob Erskine, big
and effective tackle, on the sidelines.
Bill Ingram lamented the absence OF
Floyd Blower his best forward pass
er and the back who scored the Win

Oregon State college, the team
that tied the Trojans to end their
string of consecutive victories at 25,
will meet Washington State college
in an important game in the north
west sector. The Washington array
has beaten the Oregon club in the
last several meetings but the iron
men" who played through the U. S.
c. game without a substitution pro-
missed something different this
year
Stanford University's defeated
team was in the northwest for a
battle with the University of Wash
ington at Seattle. The Indians re-
vealed a scoring strength for the
first time last week.
Washington, hampered by injuries
most of the season, faced the con-
test with its best back, Smalling

University of Oregon, leaders of
the conference, invades Los Angeles
to meet Bill Spaulding's UCLA
team. The power drives of Mike

CENTRAL SET
FOR bRAW[EY

All roads lead to Brawley to-
night, insofar as Ell Centro football
fans are concerned, and a large
delegation of students and sup
porters is expected to accompany
the Spartans to the home of the
Wildcats for a valley interscholas-
tic league game.
Central has been pointing for
the Brawley game all week and re-
ports from the rival camp indicate
that the Wildcats have been prac-
ticing hard with just one object
in view-to beat Central.
A hard game Is anticipated with
neither team considered anything
of an edge. No matter how they
may play against other opponents,
Brawley and Central always put
on tough battle when they meet.
Enthusiasm at both schools is at
high pitch. Signs calling on the
student body to rally behind the
team are conspicuous throughout
Central Union IS grounds and build
ings. The student body had a
"pep' rally today and showed lots
of spirit in yells and heard speeches
by two former Central stars now
at U. S. Gilbert Berry and John
Couch.
The team had another fine
practice yesterday and displayed
plenty of life. All the regulars are
in shape with one or two excep-
tions and they will be able to play
| if necessary. Kirkpatrick, Mad
lem. Fuwukawa, Elliott, Weiss and
the rest of the speed demons are
rarin to go.
Linemen will be fighting every
minute to get the edge over Braw-
| ley, with ripping big holes in the
Brawley line as their chief hope in
life.
The probable lineup for Central

Dieting Whales
Cut Profits
On Oils

PORTLAND, Ore, Q.N.SJ-
Skinny whales in Alaskan wat
ers this year made profits slim
for whalers, according to re-
ports from A. H. Stemmons,
who recently returned from Port
Hebron, Alaska.
The whales we're so poor that
the majority were not fit for oil
and were converted into fertil-
izer. Only 1872 whales were
taken by three stations Of the
American.Pacific Whaling Com
pany, he reported.
Lack of sufficient food was
held to be the cause for the
poor condition of the mammals.
Migration to the Siberian coast
accounted for their scarcity.
The whale base next year will be
moved 500 miles due west Of Port
Hebron to Akutan Island in the
