So Jay Berwanger
 Went to Chicago
 When the ali-star teams of the Big Ten appear this fall, you likely will see on the list the name of Jay Berwanger, University of Chi. cago sophomore halfback.
 The roster shows that Berwanger Is feet tall, weighs 195 pounds, is 19 years old and came to Chi cago from Dubuque senior high school where he won all-state hon. ors. But that's not the whole story. There's more.
 Where to Go?
 There was some doubt as to where Jay would matriculatc after his high school days were ended. Certain Big Ten schools are said to have offered him everything but the kitchen stove.
 Jays father is foreman in a fac- tory at Dubuque owned by Ira Davenport, Chicago distance run natural that Davenport should want to see Berwanger toting the leather for the Maroons. old Chi cago men are like that.
 Davenport painted the wonders of the University of Chicago to the elder Berwanger. But then there were those tempting offers from other Big Ten schools tam l speaking out of turn?). And Papa Berwanger had to think of that. Plus an Education
 At Chicago Jay not only would become a football and track star, but he would get an education, argued Davenport, and you know an education ts something they can't take away from you. But the elder BerwAnger finally yielded to the blandishments of the rival school and told Davenport he had decided to send Jay to
 Whereupon the elder Berwan- gers boss said that would be okay. and did the elder Berwanger know where another good foreman might, be obtained?
 So Jay Berwanger went to the University of Chicago. after all. stagg's Appraisal
 Before Stag left Chicago he saw Jay as a freshman and predicted for him career greater than that of Red Grange. The old Man of the Midway expressed the opinion that Berwanger "could do more things than Grange and do some of them better" We'll, we'll wait and see.
 Davenport thinks Berwanger will be national decathlon champion before his Midway days are done. Tn two weeks he learned to put the shot 4s feet. He learned, while still a novice in field sportss that he could jump go feet.
 All tn all, Chicago seems to have one of the finest young athletes in the conference. The rest of the story is on the next paee.

The big game of the day--that battle between the Mid- Western Titans, Michigan and ohio State, at Ann Arbor, promises to attract the largest crowd, about S7,0o0 fans. This encounter was heavy with significance because the win. ner is expected to wind up the season as Big Ten champion. Mich- igari was a slight favorite.
 At Cleveland, the days most im- portant inter-sectional clash be- tween Bob Zupke's powerful Illi- nois eleven and the light, speedy Army team was expected to draw more than 10000 spectators. Illi- nois was favored.

 From coast to coast other less important encounters among major teams showed advance ticket sales for crowds ranging from 5000 to 30,000. In the New York metro- politan area, alone, about -70,000 was estimated as the probable at- tendance for three games, and 30,- 900 were expected at New Haven to see Yale tangle with Brown.

New Gri'dirOn Tactics Tried Out by Many
 Big Teams
By GEORGE KIRKsEY (United Press Stan Correspondent)

WI
 Chicago (UP)--Midwestern foot ball coaches have been working overtime since the close of last season to develop new offensive tactics to help lure the crowds Saturdays, this fall.
 Heartily Anderson at sNotre Dame has a new variation of the shift to throw against the oppo- sition this year., In secret. practice, the play seems to give the ball. carrier more opportunity to get free.
 Notre Dame also will use the "man in motion" in the backfield, which Anderson introduced against Army last year, nore frequently this season. A backfield man in motion is an old play, but Notre Dame never. had used 1t until last season.
 "Rump whccp
 Harry Kipke at Michigan has developed ''rump-wheeT forma- tion, in which the two guards face the opposing line. Kipke figures this placing of the guards will en- able them to gain a couple of steps on the opposition, and get out in front faster to lead the interfer- ence.
 Clark shaughnessy at Chicago, working diligently with small squad, promises to throw plenty of surprises into the opposition, One of his new formations is a "huddle shift" in which the play CTS shift in the huddle before go- ing into their positions. He has a lot of other new stuff, but has ask ed newspapermen who have attend ed secret practice to keep 1t quiet.
 That's about all we have-a few surprise plays" said Shaungh- messy, 'so we'll appreciate it if you.,don,tt you don't mention any of our for
 Desoy Trick.
 Sam Williaman at ohio State will continue his interchanging of men to confuse the defense. One of Ohio States best plays last year shifted the tall tackle Ted Rose- quist, to end to make him eligible for pass. Both Buckeye tacklers, Conrad and Rosequist, can play end, and both ends, Padlow and Gilman, can play tackle, or in the backfield. Sid Gilman, one of the cOuntryS pest Wlngmen, may De used along the lines Wesley Fesler was couple of years ago, drop- ping into the backfield to carry the ball and to decoy the defense.
 Dick Hanley at Northwestern can be counted on to bob up with something new. He is sold on combining the best features of the Warner and Rockne systems, and has been trying for some time to work out a smooth attack of double-wing backs, starting from a unfit. Hanley is one of the garne's most progressive coaches. He is one of the leaders of the group which wants the forward pass rule changed to allow a pass to be made from any point behind the line of scrimmage, instead of requiring the passer to be back 5 yards.

Eggs For Any Meal


The unusual food value of eggs
makes them an exceptional bargain
when prices are down as at present.
Eggs are a good main dish at any
meal. Or an egg dessert, such as
custard, makes it possible to do with
a less substantial main dish than
would otherwise be needed. Egg
salad, egg sandwiches, sauces or salad
dressing made with eggs-all these
add materially to the food value of a
meal, and to the variety also.
AS a variation from fried eggs,
poached eggs, scrambled eggs, and
omelets, the Bureau of Home Econom-
les suggests baked eggs and cheese,
cheese souffle, eggs creole, shirred
eggs or greens, curried eggs, baked
eggs and rice in tomato sauce. Then
for desserts, there is rich bread pud-
ding. Fruit whips-always attractive
and nutritious desserts-are inexpen-
sive when eggs are cheap. They can
be made of any fruit pulp of pro-
nounced flavor and color, but prune
and apricot whips are favorites. Heat

Steps Should Be Taken At This Time
To Preserve Moisture In Orchard Soil
As soil moisture is one of the most
important factors in tree growth and
size and color of fruit, it is important
to take steps to conserve it during the
spring months when we have our
heaviest rains, it is pointed out by A.
F. Vierheller, specialist in horticulture
for the University of Maryland EX
tension Service. Two of the best
methods for conserving this moisture
are through cultivation and mulching.
Where the orchard already has a
sod, a light disking, sufficient to per-
nit the water to permeate the soil, is
sufficient. If the sod is tight and the
trees are not doing so well, it may be
necessary to pillow and harrow lightly
In either case, the sod will re-establish
itself in due course of time.
If the orchard is cultivated, the
cover crop should be turned under at
once, either by pillow or disk, as this
material will require several weeks to
rot before the summer cover crop. is
seeded about June 1. In either sod
or seeded orchards moving may begin
as soon as the cover crop begins to
draw heavily upon the soil moisture.
This cut material may then be left
where cut or placed around the base
| of the trees as a mulch. In this con-
nection, it is stated by Mr.. Vierheller.
straw has been found an excellent
mulch for weak trees and will aid
greatly in conserving moisture. If
straw is too costly, wild hay may be
brought in from other parts of the
farm and forked around the trees in
stead.
If the orchard has a good stand of
weeds and grass in it already, it may
be possible to omit seeding any sum-
mer or fall cover crop. However, if
cultivation is necessary it should be
handled carefully so as to prevent
erosion of the orchard soil. Leaving a
narrow sod strip in the row of trees or
between them; cultivating across the
slope of land; cultivating gullies by
use of brush, rock or sod; manuring
washed places and sowing to grass,
oats, or millet, will help to prevent
washing. Other good cover crops
are soybeans, cowpeas; and buck
wheat.
