march to an undefeated and united
season as well as a possible bid TO

modores may furnish rugged opposi-
ton, but the Crimson Tide looks much
too strong.
Nebraska Kansas State: Kansas
State offers a real challenge to
Nebraskas continued reign in this
Big Six championship struggle, but
the Huskers rate a slight edge.
Colgats-BroWn: Another Rose Bowl
candidate, Colgate, should Uind-up
its regular season with comfortable
victory.
Pitt Carnegie: And still another
team which would like to play at
Pasadena-Pitt The Panthers, beaten
only by Minnesota, should take this
one. but Carnegie's upset triumph over
Duquesne indicated the Tartans will
not surrender without a struggle.

Similarity in Careers.

COMEHOW there seems to be a
y similarity in the careers to date
of the two heavyweight gladiators
who battle for the benefit of a Christ
mas basket fund, and, of course, them
selves. 1t seems only a short time
back-actually, it was eight years
that Gallagher, then an overgrown
boy with a perfect physique and a
great fighting heart, was looked upon
as possible world champion in the
making. He appeared to have every
thing. His contract was fought over
by astute ring managers. Great gobs
of dough was spent in an attempt to
'Sell' Gallagher.
But Marty never made good. That
he retained his popularity in Wash
ington after heaping failure upon
failure was due to a great personality.
AS fighter he never fulfilled prom
ises. Now, at 27, he can do nothing
but look back.
Like the Gallagher of a few
years back, Impellettiere is
tOuted as potential hunk Of
title timber. Owner of a mag
nificent build which towers S
feet ~ inches in the air, and
over which is draped 265
pounds, the limp" seems to
have everything.

Championship Grace.

Championship Grace.
TAH NONCOMBATANT writes in to
~ get a list Of the most graceful
stars in sport.
When it comes to pitching, I'd
name Walter Johnson and Dizzy
Dean. each with the same loose,
smooth. free motion.
When it comes to batting and field
ing, the award goes to Larry Lajoie,
the old Cleveland second baseman,
who had no equal.
The most graceful golfer
ever saw with the largest
amount of rhythm was Bobby
Jones. Vardon was just about
his equal until Harry reached
the putting green.
The most graceful fighter ever
looked at was Jack Delaney, the light
heavyweight champion.
Probably the most graceful foot ball
player was Red Grange. If there was
any greater grace on gridlron I
don't recall it now.
The most graceful runner was Billy
Carr of Pennsylvania, the quarter
miller who beat Ben Eastman.
If there was mother batter with the
grace of Lajoie, it was Joe Jackson
shoeless Joe, the Carolina crashmith.
There was an artist with the ash.
In long distance running there was
no one to compare with the grace of
Paavo Nurmi.
What is grace? 1t is largely
a mixture of form and ease and
rhythm. Its chief quality is
lack Of extra effort-a certain
form of smoothness, which
paints its own picture.
There is plenty in the way of grace
that belongs to Virginia Van Vie, the
women's golf champion, who is one
Of the best swingers the old game can
show. There is no sign of extra ef-
fort or hard hitting in her game.

Stanford VS..

The nomination of Stanford for
the Rose Bowl assignment was a
certainty after the California game.
Stanford had to play real foot ball
to win this one with two of its stars
missing -Grayson, injured, and Mos
Grip, out.
For California had stronger team
than its seasons record showed, with
q star back in Williams.
Today's results should give good
line on the Rose Bowl challenger
from East or South. Pitt is the
strongest team in the East, and Ala
bana, SO far, is the best in the
South, barring an unlooked-for ex-
plosion today in Birmingham.

natural rebid from North to be sure Of

spade and even heart.
North. Four clubs. Despite your
minimum rehid, We have game In
the hand and hope for slam. You
now know there IS fit somewhere IN
/ the hand since I now Jump, though
you may have no support at all for
either Of my suits.
South. Four no trumps. Your two
bids have eliminated plenty Of losers
from my hand; I do not know
whether your fit Is in spades or no
trumps, or whether one Of your suits
is long and solid; but am gald to
say that I do not have to sign of in
four spades; cen take such thor
ough immediate care of the unbid
suit, for slam play, that I can bid
four no trumps. We are still safe in
five spades If my failure to support
nial Of them both puts an end to your
optimism.
North. Six spades. I needed to
know about your diamond control.
My belated Jump raise in spades now
tells you that the fit has all along
been in your suit, not in either Of
mine. I believe eliminated all spade
losers or illnesses and my hearts and
clubs were bid on top strength. not on
length, as I cannot rebid them
South. Seven spades. All losers
have presumably been eliminated; at
worst there may be a finesse to take
in one of your suits if there is a king
against us. If the hand is not a
spread at least I have a six-card
trump suit with which I can do plenty
Of squeezing, especially against queens.
The Play.
As you see, the hand is spread for
six, but not for seven, though on the
bidding South could expect to find
13 top tricks when dummy went down.
However, it is at once clear that If the
same opponent has to protect both
hearts and clubs, an inescapable
squeeze will develop. Leading out
trumps, declarer soon discovers that
the squeeze will bear on East. He
must carefully maneuver so that East
cannot escape it at the critical point
by being able to discard after dummy.
At the tenth trick South has heart,
the ace of diamonds and j of clubs;
North, ace Of hearts. a diamond and
the ace of clubs: East has @ of
hearts and Q x of clubs. South leads
the small club; North returns the
small club; North returns the small
diamond to South'S ace Now East in
discarding on the diamond must
either set up the jack of clubs for
South or the eight Of hearts for
dummy. He cannot escape provided
declarer carefully times the squeeze in
this manner
