Paul Krichell, chief scout Of the
Yankees, the man who passes final

season, but a survey shows that a

Then for Al years he was the grand
old man of the Midway at Chicago.
Proves He's Not Through.

was through in 1888, but he went out
to the coast and started all over
again, bringing honors to the Col

s. M. u. Is Heavy Fav0rite.

Southern Methodist will be a
heavy favorite. but Stagg never got
that reputation as a 'giant-killer"
by twiddling his thumbs. His teams
have worried titans of Pacific Coast
football. Ask California. St Mary's
and Southern California-and get
testimonial from mighty Notre
Dame, which couldn't hold Stages
fighters when they surged 10 yards
to touchdown.
Neither S. M. U. nor Pacific have
secuted each other, but the coaches
have exchanged basic formations.
And rest assured Stages plays will
be as modern as they come.
He's 70 and coached back when
the flying wedge was about all the
razzle-d dazzle they knew, but he
hasn't permitted moss to grow
around his feet. He couldn't have
won 322 games in 81 years if he had.
