Won Only One Game
It was Stanford's seventh trip
to the Rose Bowl, dating back to
1902, and during this time the
Indians have won only one game.
It also was the third successive
invasion for the senior team that
met defeat by Colur ,bia and Ala
bama the past two years in the
Bowl.
These same Indians, however,
had taken a solemn pledge they
would overcome this link" with
a smashing victory over one OF
the most colorful teams ever to
represent the East.
One of the reasons for the pop
ularity of the Texans is they al
ready had displayed their wares
to a crowd here with 40 mid
season win over U. c. L. A., q
team that had conquered STAN
ford, TO. Using the Bruins as COM
mon denominators, Southern
Methodist had a mythical ad-
vantage of % points over the
Indians, but most Of the bets were
being made on a five and one-half
point margin. And most Of the
so-called "wise money" rode with
Stanford.
Hopes on Wilson
The Mustangs based their hopes
upon the fleet-footed Bobby vii.
son, one of the most elusive ball
carriers in football, great pasSer
and a real All-American who won
his laurelS by starring in all the
IL victories scored by his team.
Southern Methodist has many
more passerS than Wilson, how
ever, and it was no secret that
Coach "Matty" Bell planned to
strike at Stanford's vulnerable
pass defense.
To match the speed and versa
tility of the aerial circus" from
Texas, Stanford has Bobby Gray
son, the hardest running back in
football, as its chief threat. Gray
son, completing a career that has
placed him in the same bracket
with such gridiron heroes as
Ernie Nevers, Jim Thorpe, Red
Grange and the late Walter Eek
ersall, has completely recovered
from a sore throat and is primed
for his greatest game.
Indians Big Weapon
It is his hard smashes off tackle
that loom as the Indians biggest
weapon, and his ace blocker,
Bones" Hamilton is ready to
pave the way for Grayson'S runs.
Hamilton, out for most of the sea-
son, is in perfect condition and
there were indications Coach
Tiny" Thornhill might use him
as a ball-carrier as well as a
blocker. Probable starting lineup.

Impressive Drills
After the first flush Of en-
thusiasm over the Wanted scoring
power of Ole Miss. the sentiment
of the city has changed, and it
would not be surprising to see
the Flying Cardinals enter the
game favorite.
Catholic University has been
most impressive in its work since
arriving here, and football sharps
have spread the word that the
team is ready.
The fact that Runt Hapes, the
line smashing fullback Of Ole
Miss definitely is out Of action
today no doubt has influenced
the betting public. But Dave Ber'
nard, Rab Rogers and Ray
Hapes, the last named q brother
Of Runt are ready to 60.
Analysing the strength and
weaknesses of the teams, it may
be said in general nat the system
of Ole Miss which plays Warner
football gives the Cardinals a more
than even chance.
The power of any team using
the double wing back formation
is developed in the outer zones.
The sweep, the reverse and the
double reverse put pressure on
the ends and the territory out.
side and over tackle. The spin
ners and straight plays through
the center depend almost entirely
upon the timing of the forwards
and the effectiveness Of the high
and low combination work.
Threat Inside
The observation-disclosures style
Of football eXertS no little pressure
on the wings and tackles, but
there is greater treat in the in
side zones. In fact the Cardinals
expect today to throw several SUI
prise plays back through the CEN
ter area. Bergman has evolved a
feint at a shift with a swift de-
velopment which should be most
effective in the second half when
no blackboard demonstration is
possible to the other team.
Bergman has outlined a rugged
campaign for the Cards today,
and every man on the team will
see action, it is thought. The gen.
eral strategy against the Warner
football to be met will call for a
packed in line Of six men across
the neutral zone. The Cardinals
ends will be stationed Just outside
of the wing backs, and at every
play win charge and establish vio-
lent contact with the Mississippi
backfield men.
Wrench In Machine
This is calculated to toss a
wrench into the finely adjusted
machinery Of the Southern team.
The tackles will hit the ends,
crossing outside and at right
angles to the charge Of the ends,
but not penetrating so far as to
expose themselves to the familiar
side Swipe and cut back Of the
Warner game.
The guards will play the area,
charging forward to block the in
side avenues to Spinners and the
line supports will be stationed
about four yards behind the line.
It was learned from men who
have watched Ole Miss that one
Of the Red and Blues best plays
is the short pass behind the line
supporting backs, with the wings
sucked to the outside by threat
man. A pass is thrown to the
threat man and then on general
principles as build up to the short
pass on which the receiver cuts
back to the center area.

NEW YORK, March 21.-Raising
flowers is a business. Raising the
pitch of optimism is a matter OF
psychology. One of the best ways
to accomplish the latter on mass
scale would be to conduct the Ma
tons business leaders through the
twenty-third annual International
Flower Show, blooming at the Grand
Central Palace this week.
After a long, hard Winter, the
sweet breath and the CHEEKY faces
of flowers, shaken well amid masses
of green, with appropriate emphasis
on the soft yellow-green of the first
Spring leaveS-there is concoction
which is the best Spring tonic imag-
Unable. And the toughest pessimist
could not long Withstand g. liberal
dose.
On the first day of the flower show,
$1,000 visitors overflowed the four
floors of exhibits and garden set
tings Judging from the crush Of
the eager crowd on the second day,
the attendance was even larger. Peo-
pie stood in deep ranks to drink in
the beauties of formal gardens and
rockeries, the dogwood trees in bloom
and whispering water cascading over
rocks, and with the vari-colored tulips,
stocks, delphiniums, roses and many
other blooms looking their wel-kept
best.

Shaking of the spell Of it and
probing bit, we come to the practical
side of raising flowers and selling
seeds.
About 70 per cent of seedsman's
volume of sales is what he calls "catalog

which, more than the robin, herald the

may range between 20 and 80 cents,
with the average order around SO or so,

In the busy season active seedsmen

FEVER RAGESOVER

Monkeys, Temperatures al
Peak, Drop From Trees
and Die.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
SAC PAULO, Brazil, March al
Health officials, returning from an in
spection tour to the fringe Of the forest
in the Upper Sorocabana area, said
today that yellow fever was raging
in the jungle.
They said they had seen monkeys,
with high fevers, drop out Of trees
and die.
However, the physicians said there
was no danger that the disease would
spread into the city.
Saying the epidemic was dying now,
Borges Vieira, state health ofiicial, de-
clared it would be wrong to exaggerate
the proportions Of its spread.
The federal health and first-aid
department in Rio de Janeiro an
nounced that "in the last three months
we have discovered AZ cases in five
states, all Of the forest type"
The epidemic in the forest appears
TO have originated good while back.
At the present rate, it is killing little,
bright-eyed monkeys by the dozen.
While competent physicians, including
specialists, hold 1t will not spread into
the cities, it is regarded as serious be-
cause it is practically impossible to
check.
There are two kinds of yellow
fever" one doctor said, Withholding
use Of his name because he is not a
government official.
"One kind is in the forest. It's mos
quito, the carrier, never enters the
city, abhoring it for some reason. The
other kind is in the city, and its mos
quito, in turn, never enters the forest.
"All that is necessary to prevent a
grave spread of the present forest
epidemic into the cities is rigid vigi-
lance"

Armed with that comfort, she
came home happy, slept Soundly
all night. It was afternoon before
she was in the right mood for
Peter. She dressed leisurely and
then with fight in her heart and
excitement darkening her purple
blue eyes TO black. she recklessly
called a taxi and went straight to
his office.
No one could resist Evelyn when
she was at her best. Young Jimmy
Mather, the office boy, tried, but
at her disarning smile, her gentle
purple blue gaze, he melted.
"Mr. Failey's not in-that is
STARS I know"
"Ch, come now! That's for the
public. I'm his siSter!"
"Yes'm, Mis- Keith, I know.
He's not in, all right. Only I
could let you talk to his secre-
tary."
His secretary, sun-tanned and
boyish, cracking with efficiency,
came out to dismiss the nuisance,
and likewise weakened.
Eyes, I suppose he would want
to see you, Mrs. Keith. But he
said positively"
st know! But I'll just tiptoe in
and if he's too busy I'll be right
back. I'm sure he'll want to see
me-"
"Well-" The secretary was still
a little doubtful. Evelyn gave her
another reassuring smile and hur-
ried through the little corridor to
the private office. He'll want to
see me, all right she smiled to her
self as her hand turned on the
knob. He'll be tickled to death.
When get through with him he
won't know whether he's going or
coming! The idea of his thinking
he can treat me the way he has,
and then dare to critic me for
having a man friend or two!
Pleasantly thrilled with her own
temerity, she pulled the door open
dramatically, banged it shut and
leaned against it.
Peter didn't even seem surprised
to see her.
He was sitting at his great, ma
hogany desk, hunched forward
over little untidy pile of papers.
He looked up, duly.
Hello, Ev."
"Hello, Peter"
"What's neW?"
What's new? What was the
matter with him? If he thought
he could bluff her out of saying
what she'd come to say!
CHAPTER XVII
''Look here, Peter Failey! I've
stood just about all I am going to
stand from you! And when I
find out that you're talking be-
hind my back and saying that
I'm no good and I have no right
to go out for an innocent evenings
diversion, after all I've stood and
the way I work Shaving trying to
keep your old tumble down shack
rented and the tenants satisfied
why it's just too much and I won't
stand it"
He didn't interrupt so she took
another breath and went on. "You
haven't the least idea of what I
have to nut I'D with and VOu don't
care. It's all right for your sister
and her girls, as long as your
precious Caroline has everything
her heart desires! I can look like

Something was wrong! Some
thing was awfully wrong. Never
in all his life had Peter let any
