DRAFTED" for Football.
Warner literally was drafted
for the Cornell football team. He
met the team captain and coach,
Carl JohanSon, on the train 60
ing to the school, and Johanson
was impressed by Warmers size,
200 pounds. He persuaded the
youngster to come out for foot
ball the next day and installed
him at left guard, a position he
played all through his days at
Cornell.
After taking his law degree in
1895 he briefly hung up his

Big Ten Groups Study
Plan for Recruiting,
Substituting Controls
BY the Assoeiafed Press

CHICAGO, Sept. 8.-Results
Of two years of work by three
special committees on a new ap-
proach to recruiting and subsi-
dizing controls will be studied
by the Big Ten in a two-day
session starting tomorrow.
The plan will be presented to
a joint meeting of athletic di-
rectors ana faculty representa-
tlves and is expected by some
conference officials to end bid
ding" for star high school ath-
leteS.
The plan would tie all finan-
cial aid to athletes to demon
strated academic ability, as do
present regulations, and proven
need.
Some changes may be in store
in conference recruiting rules.
ALI contacts are expected to be
limited, as at present, to cor
respondence or interviews on the
campus
The element of need and the
method of calculating it is con-
tanned in the proposal regarding
aid to athletes. A specified
minimum of self support would
be required of any student.
Beyond the minimum. If the
student qualified academically,
he might be eligible for financial
aid in proportion to the finan-
cial resources of himself and his
family.
Under such a system, "bid-
ding" for athletes would end,
simply because every Big Ten
school would offer the same aid
as every other one.
THE proposals are a product
OF two years of committee
work." Commissioner K. L. Will
son said. 1.-TWO other commit
tees had earlier presented a pro-
gram which would have restrict
ed drastically all prematricula-
ton contact with prospective
athletes and another program
which would have based aid to
athletes on a subsidized work
program.
The committee work was be-
gun in 1852 when Big Ten foot
ball coaches formally requested
Standardization of the rules.

Ralph Chesnauskas, who came
to the Academy as an end but
last season was voted the East's
outstanding guard. He is just
step away from some of the
great linemen of the war era
and he needs only polishing on
offensive to be their equal.
Joe Franklin, former junior

the other guard with Howard

He comes from the same Texas

be a lot less.
Jerry Hagan, a converted
quarterback, has been stationed
at left end and Don Holleder
a reserve last season, has grabbed
the right flank.
Army's first team could de-
velop into the East's best. but

The Ducks played three games
in Korea, winning them all.
Then they hoped a plane for
Tokyo, changed to another plane
and headed for Taipeh. Formosa.
They arrived at 500 am. and
played that night on a court

Top Philippines Sport.
1.-THE lights were hanging from
the roof" Guard Bobby Hawes
said. When the wind blew the
lights swung back and forth and
there were times you couldn't
see the basket"
They won that one, then
pushed on to Manila, where they
lost their first game.
Borcher explained that bas-
ketball is the number one sport
in the Philippines, and the peo-
pie take more of an interest in it
than anywhere else in the Far
East.
The team played two games in
Bangkok. It was in the second
that the rainStorm hit.
"They dug up a rubber ball
from someplace and we kept
right on playing" Borcher said,
After a while the lights went
out. but some one brought a
portable generator and got the
light working again.
Oregon had an overall. record
of II wins and 3 losses against
their Asian opponents.
Borcher admitted that he was
"very surprised" at the interest
and the quality of play he found
during the trip.
"We played before crowds OF
over 10000 twice in Manila, and
most of the other crowds were
well over 5,000," he said.

an annual salary Of $4,500. q
staggering sum for q football
coach in those days. His 1915
team he considered the greatest
he ever coached.
Pitt in 1916 won all eight
games. scoring 255 points to IS
with such stars as Bob Peck,
Pat Heron, Red Carlson, Tiny
Thornhill. Jock Sutherland and
Dale Sizes.
Altogether Warner had four
straight undefeated seasons
against college competition. at
Pitt, with the string snapped by
Syracuse in 1919. The 1920 team
won five and tied three for an
other undefeated year. and while
Warner coached there through
1928 he never again matched
his earlier successes with the
Panthers.
Nevers Prize Pupil.
Sutherland succeeded Warner
at Pittsburgh when Pop trans
ferred to Stanford. There Ernie
Nevers was his prize pupil, and
Warner always had trouble de-
Gliding which he considered the
greatest football player. He once
called Thorpe peerless. and later
he said Nevers was Thorpe's
equal. Those close to the old
coach always felt Thorpe was
his No. ! choice.
| Warner helped in the revival
of football on the West Coast
where rugby was a great game
until after World War I. Pops
1924 Stanford team became so
well known that Walter Camp
Travelled across the country to see
the last game of the regular sea-
son against California.
A late California rally tied the
game at 1920. but Stanford still
had the Pacific Coast champion
ship and played in the Rose Bowl
game against Knute Rockne's
Notre Dame team which had the
Four Horsemen of Harry Stuhl-
dreher, Jim Crowley, Don Miller
and Elmer Layden.
Beaten by Notre Dame.
The game was built up as a
test between Warmers wingback
system and Rockne's rhythmic
shift. speed and timing. Nevers,
out all season because of injuries,
was able to play this game, but
it was to no avail and Notre Dame
won, 27-10. This was the game
in which Stanford won all the
statistics but Notre Dame the
game.

Gus WeIch Louds
Warner for Relying
On Boys initiative

"He let the boys use their
initiative. The more I see of
sports, the more I realize that
was the greatest thing about
him."
This was the comment today
Of Gus WEIGH, who played quar-
terback for Pop Warner at
Carlisle in 1911-12-13. on the
death of his old coach.
At Montvale, Va. where
WEIGH is high school teacher,
he told the Associated Press:
1--WE have lost a wonderful
coach. He certainly did a lot
for the game"
WEIGH was athletic director
and football coach at American
University in 1898 and later
coached football at Georgetown
Prep.
He recalled that Carlisle's
greatest season under Warner
was in 1912, when Jim Thorpe
ran wild against Army. "A men,

season was Ike Eisenhower.

the 1idden-hall trick he perpe-
trated at Carlisle in the early
years of this century. In later
years. Pop half -heartedly denied
the story that he had sewed imi-
tation footballs on the jerseys of
his players so opponents wouldn't
know whom was carrying the
ball. But the hidden-ball trick
is well authenticated.
It was in the 1908 game against
Harvard that the trick was
pulled. with Charles Dillon tuck
ing the ball under his jersey
and running for q touchdown
after the second-half kickoff.
Despite this trick, Harvard won
the game. l2-l1, on late touch
down by Heine Schoellkopf who
had been at Cornell before
transferring to Harvard and for
whom the football field at Cor
nell is named.

1897 for two seasons before going
on to fame at Carlisle. In the
same year he went to Carlisle.
1899. he was married to Tibb
Lorraine Smith. They had no
children.
His services at the Carlisle
Indian School In Pennsylvania
were redoubtable. to say the
least. With a handful of material,
Warner wrote some of the most
vivid pages of football history in
the seasons Of 1899 through 1903,
and again from 1907 to 1914.
The intervening three years were
spent back at Cornell.
Always Linked to Carlisle.
Warmers reputation became
so great that after the 1914 cam
paign. the University of Pitts.
burgh hired him away from
Carlisle. He later coached at
Stanford and Temple UNIVERSE
ties, among the big ones. But it
is with Carlisle that his name
forever win be associated.
Everywhere he went. he pro-
duced players Of An-America
caliber. but the best known of
all was Thorpe. Coaching track,
baseball and other sports. War
ner developed Thorpe as the star
Of the Olympic games and
coached Charles (Chief) Bender.
later q great pitcher for the
Philadelphia Athletics.
Two Of his star players in his
early days at Carlisle were Isaac
Seneca, Carlisle's first All-Amer-
ic a player, and Frank Hudson,
one Of the gf1reatest drop kickers
of all time who could kick with
either foot.
Successful at Cornell.
After five seasons at Carlisle,
Warner returned to Cornell as
coach for three years. 1904-06,
and his last two years there
were particularly successful. In
1907 he went back to Carlisle
where Thorpe was to write the
brightest pages in the schools
sports history.
Thorpe was a substitute on the
1907 team, but after that he
was a star of every sport, and
it was with him that the In
dians scored their greatest sue
ceSseS.
Altogether Thorpe was at Car
Isle five years. missing the 1910
season. He won his Olympic
Games track honors in 1912, and
was an All-America football
player in 1911 and 1912.

TOKYO, Sept. 8.-Bill Borch-
er, coach Of the University Of
Oregon basketball team. rose to
his feet and yelled at the team
captain, Ken Wegner, to call
time out. Wegner didn't hear
him, and play continued. Seems
the roller coaster was making too
much noise.
Probably you would have to go
some place like Singapore to
find a roller coaster that close
to a basketball court. And that's
exactly what the Oregon basket
ball team did-go to Singapore.
The British stronghold was
only one of several stops made
by the Ducks in a helter-skelter
tour of the Far East.
In Bangkok, Thailand, they
played a Chinese team in a pelt-
ing, monsoon-like rainstorm.
They used an airplane-in
flight-as a dressing room while
en- route to Manila.
Typhoon Causes Cancellation
And they had to cancel a
game in Hong Kong because a
typhoon kept their plane
grounded in Singapore.
1t was a hectic trip taken by
Borcher, Business Manager Or

The team left the United States
August 6 and played their first
