Riding down on the train from New York, Coach Jimmy Crowley of the Rams wailed that all hi3 information in-formation on the Aggie type of play could be tucked into a thimble and still leave room for a thumb or toe. But today we discovered that the Aggies are in the same boat even though they are favored at odds of 2-1. Both coaches - Crowley and Homer Norton of the Aggies said they had not seen motion pictures, let alone had any scouts look at either team in action. Crowley said all he knew was what hi3 scout, Earl Walsh, had picked up on a ramble through the southwest. Walsh reported the Aggies are big, rough and tough, with John Kimbrough the guy to be stopped. Walsh said he talked to officials who worked Aggie games this year and they said 'Jan in John' is a 19-10 edition of Bronka Nagurski, who, if you don't remember, was a pretty good hand at fullbacking for Minnesota Min-nesota and later for the Chicago Bears. The Rams, therefore, plan to devise a defense to stop Kimbrough Kim-brough before he gets moving. The Aggies, on the other hand, will concentrate on Steve Filipo-wicz, Filipo-wicz, Fordham 's sophomore halfback half-back who can thread a needle at 50 yards with a football. Crowley and the rest of us had j thought the Aggies had all the dope on Steve. But that misconception miscon-ception goes back to the end of November, when Crowley's ticket agents reported that the team from College Station had telegraphed tele-graphed a request that "the customary cus-tomary courtesies be extended our representatives in the press box for the NYU game." That was before Nov. 28, the day only the University of Texas stood between the Aggies and a perfect season and Texas won. A crew of assistant coaches were sent to scout Tennessee, Fordham and Stanford all possible pos-sible bowl opponents. But after the upset, they were so disgusted they cancelled their airplane tickets tick-ets and muffed their only chance to see Fordham in action. FIRST WARD WINS SPRINGVILLE The Spring-ville Spring-ville First ward M Men basketball team, winners of the district last year, took a close game from the Spanish Fork Second ward at Spanish Fork Friday night.

Oregon won, 57-45. Spirit, (lusiic Horned Stanford Place in Dose Doiyi, Says Coach By HENRY MiLKMOKK PASADENA, Calif., Dec. 27 r.i;t Why is Stanford in the Rose Bowl ? This pointed question waa put to Clark Shaughnessy during ,a lull in the Indians first workout for Nebraska here yesterday, and the head man from Palo Alto had an answer equally direct and concise. con-cise. "Because Stanford U the most alert and the quickest team I ever coached or ever saw." These two virtues quickness of mind and quickness of foot he credits with Stanford's rise from the cellar of football to the roof tops, Shaughnessy placed them ahead of the famed T formation in importance, because as he explained, ex-plained, the T formation would have been a flop without the proper boys to operate it. "The T formation is nothing mysterious,', he said. "It is as old as the hills. I have used vaiiatioru of it ever since - I started coaching, and that wasn't yesterday. But only the right kind of players can operate it. For example, someone was talking with me the other day and said how I must yearn for a player like Jay Berwanger to use in the Rose Bowl. You remember Jay, of course. One of the greatest football foot-ball players Chicago or any other school ever had. But I wouldn't want him against Nebraska. His style isn't the style that fits the T foimation. As great as he was, he would be a liability instead of an asset.'' In describing his team's alertness, alert-ness, Shaughnessy spoke of his players' curiosity, their ability to lern, and their faculty for not making the same mistake twice. Shaughnessy didn't say so, being be-ing just about as modest a catch as ever gave an order,' but he gets an A grade 'for alertness, too. He hadn't been working with his new players last spring for more than a week or two when he knew . and named his starting team for the season that was months away. He was dead right, too, because the eleven men he named when they still were practically strangers strang-ers to him, will be the eleven men who'll take the field for the kick-off kick-off against Nebraska. The quickness Shaughnessy spoke of doesn't necessariy mean blinding speed of foot. As Bob Zuppke once pointed out, there is a lot of difference between a player who is quick and a player who is speedy. The latter may be able to do a hundred yards in WANTED ALL KINDS OF HIDES!
