At six different intervals, the count was tied in the first half with the varsity men setting their inde- pendent opponents a terrific pace. Die! Shines 4 A lad who couldn’t make the Bis- marck high team a few years ago turned out to, be the star in last night’s encounter, Duane Diehl, who roved that perseverance wins, ac- Lbindhe for 12 of the points that his team scored. He was ably assisted and abetted by Jimmy Olson, formerly a scintil- lating light of the Demon crews a few years back, but now performing brilliantly as a member 07 the U versity freshmen squad. Olson was everywhere on the floor, guarding superlatively, advancing the floor on deceptive bles and negotiat- ing three pretty field ~oals. Among the promising Phantom- ites, the work of “Doc” Burdick, Bruce Doyle and Harry Lobach stood out. This trio proved to be the mainsprings of both the offense and the defense and were at all times troublesome. si Nick Robertson, former Milton college star, and Andy’ Anderson, also flashed sufficient form to show that they will be some of the prin- cipal cogs in the team that Neil Churchill is fashioning. All-Stars Grab Lead The all stars were off to a one- point start after the first few min- utes of play when Dich! made good a gift shot which was equalled short- ly after by Lobach. Diehl then pro- ceeded to count all of the points that the all stars made during that canto while Doyle, Anderson and Burdick registered for the local crew. The quarter ended 7 all. Burdick’s long heaves from the middle of the floor kept the inde- pendents in the running during the Second quarter with Anderson con- tributing a sensational overhand Doyle, Dale and Roberts toss tipping in setups. TReoring was evenly divided among the collegi: “Beanie” Benser used his height to good advantage to push two field goals through the from under the backboard Jimmy Olson slipped away twice for successful short shots.

And, of course, it must be remembered that Pitts- burgh made aclaim for national grid honors which would not be di- minished in the least by a decisive victory over.Pop Warner's brigade. BY BOB MATHE! NEA Service Sports Writer There's always this matter of sec- tional pride to be considered in any ‘intersectional football game, espe- cially the Tournament of Roses af- fair in which Pittsburgh, of the cast, and Stanford, of the west, will clash It was due largely to this same Mr. “Gibby” Welch that Pittsburgh remained undefeated in the east this seagon, although the Washington nd Jefferson eleven, on a slow held the Panthers to a score- le. ir, Welch’s forte is running with the ball. Slow fields are a terrible handicap to him. ‘Dry fields aro not. He showed that many times this sea- son, especially when he returned kickoffs against West Virginia and Nebraska for touchdowns. The first was for 105 yards, the second for 97 yards. As a result of Mr. Welch's run- ning activities, and a good bit of co- operation from his playmates, Pitts- burgh dimmed the lights -of West Virginia, Drake, Nebraska, Carne- gie Tech, Penn State and a couple other elevens this fall. It is also said that Mr. Welch recently scanned over the list of backfield stars who have performed in other Tournament of Roses games —the Four Horsemen, Ernie Nevers, Pooley Hubert, Hoge Workman, Ed- die Casey, George Wilson, Johnny Mack Brown, Harry Wilson and many others. And after a proper amount of ser- ious reflection, it dawned on Mr. Welch that Jan. 2 would be a good day to inscribe his name in big red letters among those greats. Not that he isn’t a great, mind you, for he was chosen almost unanimously for All-America this year, but merely because—well, because. enough to win his letter at bas!
