fEhat have gone III for the coaS
 Three things have contributed 10
 hhe Quickening of the Stanford
 pace, one that only Santa Clara, which obtained a 7-7 draw, was Iable to match during the season.
 The Cardinal juniors are deter Iinined to wipe out the blur put up- lbn their ledger by g. brave little
 hand of Columbia Lions in that hmazing upset of year ago. The Palo Altoans are stirred by khe tumult raised in. connection with Alabama - greatest team hver to come out of the south, and { hne that will slaughter Stanford" z The Cardinals are fired by the likelihood that they will deploy on khe short end of the wagering for She first time this year.
 Bird for Tough Test
 Members of Stanford's official Family expect the Big Red team 10 turn in it's most vicious game of She campaign. '"The boys are mad-cut to the WQIChs do5C1 tS ohC VI ShShAs only hope 1t lasts"
 It is hard to say in what physl- kal condition Stanford will be. Bobby Grayson, everybody's All American, and his understudy, Stan Anderson; Monk Moscrip, 1 place-kicking end who made sev- eral All-America teams, and his running mate, Keith Topping; Claude Galloway, tackle, and some others have been injured or ill Iwere i'll since the terrific encoun- ] ter with California on Nov. "A. The belief is that all will be in shape to go at least part of the distance against Alabama.
 eff Grayson, Moscrip, Topping, Nr Galloway is out, the team will play all the harder" explans the member of Stanfords official fam lily
 "Stanford hasn't had the occa- sion to win a game for a disabled pr indisposed star this season. Moscrip's trick knee developed on khe eve of the California game so Unexpectedly that the players Ihidn't realize it was true. Gray kon went out too suddenly for any Psychological benefit" 1 Stanford is not going to be
 Caught as unprepared as it was in svhat turned out to be 8 savagely- eought scrap with Columbia. Nor Ss there the slightest chance of the Cardinals being as 1istless as they Appeared to be at times while cas- Ely demonstrating their vast supe- Fiority in seven out of ten games iuring the past season. rrTl- l. tinced that they are to have their Toughest test of the campaign on
 New Years Day, and consequently Svill deploy with both eyes wide ppen.
 A Record to Maintain
 I Stanford will have no advantage Ibver Alabama in this respect, with Dixie Howell, Bill Lee & Go. out
 10 emulate the glorious Rose Bowl deeds of former wearers of the Erimson and White.
 Coach Frank Thomas could use &sny one of the Tides three pre- &iou0 performances here and not Back material for an entire series bf pep talks.
 | Thomas could point to the Ala sbama heroes of Jan. l, 1926-pul- kerizing Pooley Hubert, Johnny lnfack Brown, and Grant Gillis. The ltoach of the Red Elephants could Ipicture the 1927 crop Babe
 Pearce, Lovely Red Barnes, Jimmy Robinson, and Wu Winslett. He could repeat the. oft-told and lfadiant tale of the standouts of M931 - Monk Campbell, Moore, }T1ash Suther, Smith, and Whit kvorth.
 | The story of Alabama's classic &hree- touchdown rally in the third 4uarter, which conquered a power tul Washington array on New Years Day, 1928, would stimulate
 he imaginations of any band of Football men. I Thomas could tell of Pearce, the Renter, charging through the line Do block a punt with his face, and making 1t possible for Johnson, a reserve fullback, to bolt through Ikhe same Pearce's position for the Touchdown that tied Stanford the Following year.
 "The third quarter is Alabama's huarter out here," Coach Thomas might shout, in the event that his bows trailed at the half, for again Ibn Jan. 1, 1881, the Tuscaloosans Scored three touchdowns and add Isd a. field goal for good measure in &hat period to smother Washing &On State, z4-0.
