COME SPORTIN' STUFF
RE SMUKLER

nave SmukIer, the lad who car
"a the leather for Temple Uni
t '1"rsitv back in 1884 and 'S5 and
tSa Jewish youngster whom Glenn
.%on" Warner hailed as "the
,-roatest football player I've ever
soen or coached in my thirty-five
Doars in this game" is headline
lows once again. Smukler who
traded his alI-American fullback
,oureIs for a berth with the prof
essiOnal gridders was a standout
at the pro game as well as at the
collegiate terror. w h e n Smukler
carried the mail, the opposition
+rembIed. So it was in the pro
ranks. However, Dave up and
m,it the pro game in the middle
of the season last year saying he
was fed up with the game of foot
hall and that he had had enough
nieskin to feed an army. Lured
hack to the fold, Dave was signed
to what the legal minded fra
ternity deemed an iron-bOund con-
tract and he wound up the season
still totin' the apple for a steady
six yards per scrimmage. Not
bad ground work in anybOdy's ball
park to say nothing of the Nat
iOnal Professional GridderS :.
However, c'est Ia guerre and tout
fins, Smukler is news once more.
The rip-roaring, two-fisted son
of a cloak-and-suiter had worked
his way through high school ply
ing the needle on hand-stitched
gloves. Not too brilliant in
high school, his skill with his
fingers nevertheless put him
through the secondary level. Once
during the height of the depress-
