BITTER RIVALS
ALL-STAR MATES
FOR GRID CLASH


CHICAGO, Aug. % (C.TP.s0.
Washington and washington
State, Huskies and Cougars, gen.
orally regard one another with the
same distrustful admiration that
David had for Goliath.
But today at Dyche Stadium,
where the all-Star football men
scrimmaged in preparation for the
Greenbay Packers, Ed Goddard,
Washington State, and Byron
Haines, of the University Of Wash
ington, paired as half backs to
form one of the most efficient
combinations the college coaches
have discovered.
Perhaps, Goddard and Haines
more easily forgot three years of
football rivalry between Pullman
and Seattle because both live in
California. No matter the reason,
this pair of athletes, Goddard the
paSser and HaineS, the receiver,
completed two successive passes
ard scored a touchdown in the
second of the doubleheader games
at Dyche Stadium.
PROVES CLAIM
And Haines, by his speed, excel
lent judgment of pace and broken
field running, definitely proved
that he must be considered for
the right half back job when the
All-Stars meet the Professional
Champions September /.
John Drake, Purdue'S brilliant
right halfback, continues to be
the coaches choice for the start
ing assignment, which selection
comedies with the result Of the
poll of football fans. Lloyd Card
well, NebraSka'S Sprinting half
back, tall and rangy, cannot be
overlooked. But sometime during
the battle with the Packers, watch
for Haines. Haines can handle
those line drive passes of Sammy
Baugh. There is no better re.
ceiver in all-Star squad.
Which returns us to the start
Of today'S two-hour Scrimmage
and the amazing passing of Baugh.
If Baugh doesn't give Arnie
Herber of the Packers lessons in
forward passing on the night of
September /, it will be because
the gridiron is ankle deep in mud,
it's raining, and someone forgot
the football.
UNDERSTATEMENT
For every word Of pyaise given
this happy, carefree Southerner
from Texas Christian is under
statement Of his ability.
Baugh's pitching, and the crash
ing line thruSts of Ed Jankowski,
were the high spots of today'S
Scrimmage.
While the first team lost the
ball by pass interception at the
start of the game, this eleven ran
up four consecutive first downs
and hammered to within 10 yards
of the goal on its second march
in this drive, Baugh tossed three
consecutive successful passes to
Tinsley and Wilkinson. Jankow.
ski cracked the line for five yards,
and, after two pass failures,
Baugh ran off tackla for 10 yards.
The drive was checked when q
third-down pass fell incomplete
over the goal line for touch
back.
SCORES WITH EASE
But when the first team re-
gained possession after O'Neill's
punt, it scored with ridiculous
ease. John Drake plowed off
right tackle for five yards. Then
Baugh, running across field. re-
verSing when cornered threw 20
Jankowski for a 30-yard gain and
possession on the opponents 40
yard line. On the next play,
Baugh spotted Drake running
into the end zone and his pass
accurately cleared the out
stretched hands Of two-defending
backs and Drake scored. Bud
Wilkinson'S attempt for the point
was wide, due undoubtedly to the
handicap Of the long grass on the
gridiron.
Numerous substitutions were
made, among them Joe Riley for
AL Agett. It was Riley's running
and passing which not only held
the second eleven for Is minutes
but linked together q drive of
three first downs.
