Spartans Watch Bronco Plays Michigan State At Peak Of PhysicalCondition OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 8.-(P)-The traveling Spartans of Michigan State switched trains here this evening on their way to the west coast and lim- bered up for 10 minutes before piling back into their "practice - field coaches"-to review plays intended for use against Santa Clara Saturday. Coach Charley Bachman said his 36 players were at their peak of physical condition for the season, and his only regret was that the ath- letes 'would not get much chance to actually run up against Bronco for- mations in practice on a drill field. Bachman converted the pullman cars into a theatre to show movies of last year's State-Santa Clara game and to give the sophomores an idea of the power the western college will display in Kezar Stadium. The only' injured player on the squad was guard Ed Abdo and he played valiantly against Syracuse last week. The rest of the team, rated the underdog in Saturday's encounter, was rested and enlivened by their 14-3 victory over Syracuse.

Only Half A Ball Over t But It's A Whole Point Until last Saturday, Washington and Jefferson was unbeaten and un- tied, it got that far, though, with the help of one of the season's freak in-i cidents. W. and J. was playing Geneva and, with the score 1212, Coach George Roark sent Lothar Schaefer, big tackle, to kick the extra point. Schae- fer gave the ball a whale of a boot --so hard it split in half. One half flew off to the side, but When Bierman assumed control of Minnesota's gridiron fortunes in 1932,1 the Gophers began their ascendancy I to the pinnacle of football fame. The juggernaut powerhouses which came to be synonymous with Minnesota's grid representatives grew to be recog- nized throughout the nation as the ultimate in modern football perfec- tion year after year. Fall Foreseen But last season experts began to sense the impending shakiness of the Gopher empire. Even though Minne- sota again won the Conference crown,! there were indications of an immin- ent decline. A definitely mediocre crop of sophomores strengthened thej growing conviction that Minnesota's downfall was at hand. The current season has witnessed the complete collapse of Gopher grid supremacy. The once-mighty Bier- man machine has won but one of its five starts, dropping decisions to Ne- braska, Ohio State and Northwestern, and fighting Purdue to a 13-13 stand- still. The Gophers' lone win came at the expense of a weak Arizona team, First November Loss Last week's loss to Northwestern marked the almost complete de- molishment of the remarkable grid- iron records compiled by the Gophers under Bierman's guiding hand: IA was the first time since 1932 that they had dropped a November contest, Ind it was the initial time since 1932 that the other went over the crossbar, and the officials ruled the extra-point try was good. W. and J. won, 13-12. snugly in her possession the LittleI Brown Jug, emblematic of the long- standing Michigan-Minensota rivalry.I Beat Michigan Last Year t Last fall the Maize and Blue out- played the Gophers in their own back-1 yard, had them beat until the final minutes, only to see the Herd roar back on Van Every's passes and eke out a 7-6 win. Saturday's game between Michigan+ and Minnesota may well be termed+ the turning point of future football fortunes of both teams, but the meet- ing also carries much deeper signifi- cance. If Minnesota wins, it will be her sixth triumph in as many years- a feat no other team has ever ac- complished against the Wolverines. At 2 p.m. Saturday Michigan foot-I ball prestige goes on the block.
