BY ARNOLD DERLITzKI

CHICAGO, Aug. rs r UP -
Chicago's Big Bad Bears, the
professionals who have never
lost a football game in All Star
competition at Soldier Field, ape
taking every precaution in IRE
pairing for their fourth venture
against the Collegians Friday
night.
For one thing, owner coach
George Halas has decided to
keep his starting lineup secret
until game time.
For another, he has had Clark
Shaughnessy, his frequent col
laborator on T formation plays
and a precision expert, supervis-
ing drills at the Bears Delafield,
Wis, camp.
OFFENSIVE TEAM
Most of all Halas has had the
Bears getting in plenty of de-
fensive ticks. The Bears ordinar-
lily don't worry too much about
what the other team is going to
do. Their tactics are based on
maintaining possession of the
ball most of the time. Defensive
drill was d e S & n e d to stop,
among others, Bill Dudley of
Virginia, who ran wild in All
Star practise last week.
II think everyone will agree"
Halas said, that the All Stars
have superior material this year.
They have another advantage
because their coach is Bob Zupp-
Ike, a master at inspiring ath-
letes. AS for the Bears, I'm not
telling any secret when / say
we're not quite as strong as we
were last year, although I'm not
complaining, you understand"
NEAR-PERFECT RECORD
In fact, Halas ventured the
opinion that his Bears would
maintain their undefeated rec
ord in Fridays game, although
he said he did not believe the
margin of difference would be
as great as last year when the
Bears won, 37-13. The Bears
aso triumphed in 1885, 5 to 0,
but in the All Star inaugural
game, in 1884, they were held
to a scoreless tie.
Shaughnessy, now coach at
the University of Maryla d,
took charge of yesterdays Of
fensive operations and drove
two squads through a long round
of running and passing plays.
While one team was executing
play, the other was in a hud-
die. So fast was the tempo that
at one point the squads were
averaging six plays minute.
The All Stars also went
through snappy rehearsal yes
terday and tonight will hold
brief session under the lights at
Soldier Field.
The ninth annual contest, to
be played for Army and Navy
relief, already is assured of a
record attendance of 10000.

TEXAS Lacquer
A minute later a piece of Bar
50 strategy backfired. Arnie
Hellner, hurting for the tavern

to Tex Richard and after an in
field conference it was decided
to walk Richard and get at the
bottom of the order.
Hellner tossed slow ball,
but Richard stepped in jab-
bing a Texas Lacquer in

conditions, the ball might have
been stopped, but the Bar SO
infield, looking for a bunt, was
only a step and half from the
plate. Inman, of course, scored
easily on the hit with the win

The game was tight through

GOOD IN CLUTCH
Duckert, seldom a sensational
hurler, has tossed consistently
good ball all season and after
allowing five scattered hits -
two of them scratch - over the
first four innings, set the vaunt-
ed Blue team down 1928 in each
of the last four frames.
Both teams had scored once in
the first, Bar 50 after Mushy AL
brecht laid down a perfect bunt
hit and stole home and H. & S..
after Duckert had laced out a
looper, scoring on Ken Moore
single. The losers seized the lead
in the third when Ray Lorway
got a scratch hit and scored on
Leonard Brindley's sacrifice.
The margin proved sliort-lived
as Duckert again singled in the
fourth, being pushed across by
Jim McIntyre's double - the
only extra-base hit of the game.
Next playoff game is on
Thursday at 6:45; unless rain
should again flood st. Mary's,
