lead Pop Warner's Stanford Cardi-

nia Trojans in the renewal of their
annual rivalry this week. Hoff-

backs cn the coast, being a con-
sistent ground gainer.
Cage Squad Suffers
Loss Through Injury
Coach George Veenker's basket-
ball squad suffered its first casu-
alty of the season Tuesday night
when Bill McAfee, Varsity baseball
pitcher, sprained his ankle in prac-
tice. McAfee is a fine basketball
player as well as being one of the
best pitchers in the Big Ten. This
injury will probably keep him out
of practice for a few days, but he
will report again long before the
season opens.
With only four lettermen return-
ing this year, Raber being ruled in-
eligible recently, Coach Veenker
will have to find some players who
are proficient scorers. Oosterbaan
and Harrigan scored 215 points be-
tween them last year while Chap-
man, Orwig, and McCoy, who are
returning scored only 50 points
apiece. The problem of the coach-
ing staff this year is to find one or
two men who can make up this
difference.
To fill this gap Coach Veenker
must rely mostly on men who play-
ed on the "B" team' last year, and
who have shown improvement.
Whittle may be one of these. An-
other possibility is Joe Truskowski,
football end, who' played basketball
two years ago.
