|Michiqon OutcIosses Stanford
IBv TT After Stiff First Half
BY the Associated Prsss

Mighty Michigan steam-rollered
over a willing but outclassed Stan
ford football team today by a
27-to-7 count.
A crowd of $4,000 fans, the
largest of the season here. saw
the Wolverines wingback attack
pulverize Stanford's defense for
three touchdowns in the third Pc
riod, after being held to . TO
lead at half-time.
Michigan, undefeated since Oc-
tober, 1946. when Illinois turned
the trick, racked up its 25th con-
secutive victory since then. Coach
Benny Oosterbaan's Wolverines
came out West defending their
mythical national championship.
So far as the shirt -sleeved near
capacity throng that saw them
batter the Stanford defense to
bits, was concerned. they're good
bet to retain their laurels this
season.
The huge, hard-charging Mich
igan, line fattened Stanford's less
experienced crew on both offense
and defense. Behind awesome
blocking, the blue -jersied BALI
packers from the Middle West
ripped and ran through holes big
enough to drive 4 farm wagon
through.
Stanford Dream Blasted.
Stanford followers, swayed part
ly by sentiment and the fact their
teams goal line hadn't been
crossed in winning contests the
last two Saturdays, had hoped
for an upset today.
What they saw for three Pc
riods was their own boys sprawled
on the ground.
The Michigan men, burly and
certainly well drilled in their busi-
ness. exploded like charges OF
dynamite. The Wolverines, seven
point favorites to start the game,
crossed the Stanford goal in the
opening quarter after a 59-yard
march. Right Half Leo Koceski.
who ran through gaps at tackle
like he owned that part OF the
Stanford line, went over for the
initial marker from four yards out.
1t sounded the beginning Of the
end for Stanford. The Far West
erners, who had beaten San Jose
State and Harvard by big scores,
STAYED off another Michigan
touchdown just before the first
half ended. The Wolverines had
travelled from their own II to
|Stanford's II. Irv WisnieWski,
right end. then caught a pass from
Sub Qarterback Bill Putich and
was downed three inches from the
goal as the hahtime gun barked.
The third quarter dashed all
hopes of Stanford. The hard-hit-
ting Michigan outfit turned two
poor Stanford punts to full ad,
vantage. Five minutes after the
third period started, Reserve Full
back Don Dufek cracked the line
for the last yard Of q 37-yard
thrust.
Stanford got into the hole again
soon after. Michigan put the ball
into play on its own ~. The wing
back smashes continued to con-
fuse the home guards and an
occasional pass contributed to the
general crack-up. Fullback Dick
Kempthorn banged out the last
two yards. "
The third touchdown of the
third quarter followed ihterception
of a pass by Left Halt Charles
Ortman, who returned the ball "a
yards to Stanford's Is.
Hard-driving Koceski made the
touchdown, pouring through for
the last six yards.
| Stanford scored in the final Pc
riod against a team made up
largely of Michigan reserves. It
was a 54-yard effort. with Right
Half Boyd Benson rambling the

Praiseworthy as they are. the
Fourth Clubs still do not seem TO
be the place to seek background
material for q motion picture. Not
to a city boy. at any rate. This,
of course. turns out to be among
the city boys sillier misconcep-
tions. the proof thereof being set
forth in "The Green Promise.
which arrived yesterday at Keith's,
The Green Promise" is a quite
satisfying entertainment. II 1t
isn't a completely satisfying Aim.
it Is only because Director Will
liam D. Russell and Monty F.
Collins. who wrote the screenplay
have allowed it to get a little
slushy on a couple OF occasions.
It's still a heart-warming affair
though and well worth the time
and money. It Is the first picture
made by Glenn Mccarthy. the
famed Texas oil man and 1t ought
to prove easily that the rich get
richer.
The major merits Of The Green
Promise" are two. One is a vel
come abandonment Of Hollywood
glamour, in presenting a group Of
people in q farm community who
look and act like people In a
farm community rather than like
dressed-up extras. The other is
a little girl named Natalie Wood.

Omaha. Ethel and to polish of his
pitching skill.
Monty's next big league tour is
a triumph. shown In several
plausible enough sequences. but
the picture keeps away from the
ball park enough to show STRAIT
ton the man. more than the best
right handler In the American
League.
It is between seasons that he
shoots of his leg in a hunting ac-
cident, goes into the spiritual dol
drums, becomes moodily morose
and incapable Of responding to
the inspiration of Ethers insist
ence that life Is not over for him.
Ultimately, however. she lures him
into a game Of catch out Of which
grows his feeling that maybe a
man could pitch on an artificial
leg, after all. His discovery that
this actually Is the case is the
pictures climax. and a pretty good
one In which he beats q team OF
all-stars, one of whom in real life
Is Pitcher Gene Bearden.
\
Monty Stratton's story Is one
Of many moods, but the accent is
principally upon the light. tri-
umphant ones. 1t is a tale which
obviously Is q JOY to act not only
on the part Of Stewart and Miss
Allyson, but such other salts
flying performers as Frank Nor
gan. Agnes Moorehead, Pitcher
Bearden, Jimmy Dykes and many
others.
It is q genial tribute to q hero
who had a piece Of tragic luck,
but the heart and the inspiration
to turn it into something good
including q good movie.

The picture at the Palace is al

him, as he himself did not cry
over his mishap. Neither does II

Sam Wood, the director who

In his screenplay by Douglas
Morrow and Guy Trosper, he picks
up Monty Stratton as q gawky kid

three dollars he gets for the game
is a nice addition to the egg money

their rundown farm. The bigger
reward, however, is the attention
his playing attracts on the part
Of old Barney Vile. an ex-big
league bum who sees him from q

It strikes Barney that q kid who
can pitch like that has possibili-

Who started the nonsensical
myth that only live persons or ami
mails lie or sit; that inanimate OBJ
iects lay or set
Readers in various parts of the
country have written to tell me
that they we're so taught in both
high school and college.
A University of Calilorn-i grad
uate states that he was taught that
an inanimate object cannot sit be-
cause 1t has no knees or hips TO
bend. A Kansas City stenographer
writes that her employer, an at
torney, insists on the correctness OF
"A dead horse vas laying on the
ground" for the reason that a dead
horse is an inanimate object; that
only a live horse can Lie on the
ground!
A reader thanks me for my Sit
Set, Lie-Lay'' pamphlet. But. she
SAYS, 1T doesn't include the impor-
tant rule that inanimate objects
set and lay. and do not sit and'lie. /"
The important tand utterly
absurd ruler Is apparently TO be
found In some textbook or other:
but I have 50 far been unable to
md such book. II you know Of
It, please write to me IN care of this

Here is the correct rule as found
In all reputable authorities:
Lie and sit are intransitive verbs
and take no object. That is, one
cannot lie or sit something-it Is
the thing itself that hes or sits.
Lay and set are transitive verbs
and must take an object. That is TO
say. one must lay or set something.
Examples: The dead horse lies on
the ground. The book sits on the
table. Lay the baby In It's crib.

In the play Of the hand 1t pays
declarer to take a few seconds time
out at the opening lead to ask him.
self the simple question: II won
der what the lead is from?" The
answer to this question will simplify
the play of q great many hands
which might otherwise 60 down to
defeat.
South was the declarer at con-
tract Of four spades. The bidding
was orthodox enough, the only pos
sible question being as to South's
lump rebid. It is fractionally short
of the textbook requirement OF
seven playing tricks, but 1t has such
good controls that the slight over
bid cannot be criticized. A rebid OF
only two spades would be out OF
the question because Of its mad.
euuacy. The alternate call would
be three diamonds, inasmuch as q
rebid at the level of three denotes
q very strong hand. This. would
have led to a three-no-trump con-
tract by North, which would have
been fulfilled in routine manner.
Against the spade contract West
led the four of clubs. The queen
.-was played from dummy refiexly
4 and was taken by the ace. A trump
was returned. Declarer gave up
any hope of ruffing q diamond In
dummy, because he realized that
when he, surrendered trick In that
suit another trump would come
back. He rested all his hopes on
the chance that the hearts would
break. Trumps were extracted and
then the ace, king and another
heart brought forth the bad news
that he was down one.
Had declarer paused at trick one
to ask himself. II wonder what
West is leading fromp" he might
have made the hand In q very
simple manner. Against . four
spade contract, on bidding Of this
TYNE, It is unlikely that West would
have underled the ace. That card
Is therefore virtually marked in
,Easts hand. There Is, however, q
very great likelihood that the open
ing lead was from the jack, IN
which case the play of small club
from dummy win establish q discard
for one Of South's losing diamonds.
The odds greatly favored that play.
It is interesting to note that even
after the play Of high club from
dummy and East's return, the hand
could still have been made on a
somewhat involved play. Can you
figure It out?
