Ry JACK i. LEENER

LOS ANGELES. Aug. II. UPD-
Bert La Brucherie, UCLA'S neo-
phyte college football coach, and
assistants, Ray Richards and Shell
by Calhoun, got together the other
day in a Big Three" meeting to
iron out the kinks in their 1945 grid
machine.
Richards, an ex-Chicago Bear
pigskinner, is a hOldover from the
Babe HOrrCll regime. while CAL
houn last year was Trojan Coach
Jeff Cravath's aide.
APPEAR HAPPY
The trio appeared rather happy
over the showing of their charges
against the king-sized El Toro Ma
rines, although the Bruins took the
short end of a 28-14 score.
The reason for this bit of elation
was the fine playing of Center Bill
Wood, a third-stringer last year be-
hind Don Paul and Gene Lee;
UCLA's 1913 Rose Bowl guard, Al
SparliS; and Eddie Eaton, all-city
guard from Los Angeles high.
Sparlis is Just rounding into form
after returning to civilian life from
the Burma theater Of operations
where he was a pilot on 10 combat
missions.
The burly Eaton is we'll known to
La Bruchcrie, who was his prep
coach at Los Angeles high before
being signed by the Bruins last
spring.
AS for the UCLAn backfield, La
Brucheric appears we'll stocked with
veterans Jack Boyd and Brooks

Wilson high in Long Beach. Base
ballcr Cal Rossi will return at right
half il he can recover from an early
touch of fumblitiS, which cost the
Bruins two tOuchdOWnS against Ell
TOrO.
RETURNS TO FOLD
Another army discharge, Ernie
Case, formerly a UCLA quarterback
before the advent of Bob Water
field, is returning to the fold and
is heavily counted upon by La
Brucherie to engineer a lot of the
pass plays required in the T for
nation.
The Bruins do not appear partic-
ularly strong especially in the
light Of their cross-town rivals,
use. who will sport a formidable
line in front Of fast backfield.
But La Brucherie, a past master
in the art Of deception, is counting
on a few breaks plus lot of razzle-
dazzle to befuddle Troy. in their

On the more nebulous side is
the fact that thousands upon

Before it's over there will be

From these countries there has

Although the number is COM

know of a mother and daughter
over there who were clean people
and had tidy home. They also
had a lamp shades made out OF
human skins.
The biggest thing I am roofing
for is universal military training
after the Japs are beaten. Every
boy should have year of it when
he turns 10. The training should
be just as much like the battle
field as possible. There should be
a lot of infiltration courses and
physical hardening and live am
munition should be used in work
ing out all combat problems.
Every day on the battlefield
you learn something new. You'd
never learn it all if you kept at
II 10 years. Training should be
designed so that the soldier learns
more and more in practice and
less and less on the battlefield.
What he didn't learn in training

Something a guy doesn't know

something he didn't learn in the
United States.
I learned more in three months
of training in Africa than I learn
ed in six months in the States. In

that gets guy ready for really

some day it might save his life.
Anyone who saw the V-bombs
knows there is no such thing as
any more.

DETACHABLE AIRPLANE CABIN WILL
FLOAT YOU TO EARTH ON PARACHUTE

MIAMI, Fla. -. FNS) - The
dream of a Miami lawyer and in
ventor, who for II years has been
working on the problem, is about
to be realized: safety for airplane
travellers through the use of de-
tachable airplane cabins which
float to earth on parachutes.
Robert M. Thomson reported
last week that a New York con-
Germ is showing live interest in
his invention and that DR.. John
b. Crane, director of research of
the Glenn L. Martin Aircraft Co.,
Baltimore, has asked that a mod
ell be sent him.
First patents on Thomson's
parachute lowered airplane cab
ms was issued July %, 1888, al
though he holds other patents
issued as far back as Nov. 20,
1929 for lowering supplies and
equipment from airplanes by
parachute.
Thomson visualizes the future
commercial airlines as giant
with the fuselage packed with
one, two, three or more detach-
able cabins or units.
These cabins, independent Of
the plane itself. will be trans
ported by specially built trucks.
Passengers will take their seat
in the cabin at downtown loca-
ton, be driven to the airport and

will be lifted by crane and at

ton in making this week an out

need for a forceful reminder of
the value of courtesy seems to
be generally recognized, and the
only objection we have received
so far is that a week is not long
enough considering the impor-
lance courtesy plays in our daily
business and social lives.
However. it is not our inten-
ton that this should be emphas-
lied for only a week and then
forgotten, but rather that it may
be revived during this week so
efficiently that it will become a
daily habit. We feel certain that
when clerks, customers, opera
tors, business men, and the pub
lie rediscover how pleasant life
is when courtesy, traditional in
the South, again becomes COM
mon custom, they will not relapse
into the don't you know there is
