Goddard was the throwing ace on the Cougar drive, and his team- mates rushed the Beaver passers so hard that they were harmless until the final quarter, when they scored two touchdowns. -, SPORT SLANTS Don't be tempted to rush out and hock the family jewels to bet on Navy to beat Army again when the two service teams meet on Franklin Field, Philadelphia, late in Novem- ber just because the Midshipmen trampled William and Mary 20 to 0 in their season’s opener while a week later the Cadets took on the same team and emerged victorious by a mere 14 to 0 score. Comparalive when they happen to be the resulta of early games they mean even less. Of course, William and Mary had the benefit of the experience gained in the battle with Navy when they encountered Army at West Poini a week later. It was the Cadets’ first start and Gar Davidson’s squad was spotted with green and untried ma- terial. The Cadets ran up a greater total of first downs in their first test but did not show the scoring punch that equalled the Navy's. Four times in the first period the Cadets had the ball inside the visitors’ 20- yard line but could not put it over. Okiahoma Leads March Army did uncover a fine looking ball carrier in the second period when Davidson turned loose Jim Craig, a yearling from Pauls Valley, Oklahoma. With Craig as the main- spring, the West Point eleven parad- ed 68 yards in the eight plays to put over their first score. One game does not make a season but if any back of West Point looks like a worthy successor to Jack Buckler, or Joe Stancock of last year’s team, it is this chap Craig. This recruit from last year's plebe team dominated the field every moment he was out there. He passed and punted like a veteran in addition to his splendid work as a ball carrier. While Craig’s fine showing has heartened the Cadets’ supporters, the Midshipmen are quite satisfiéd that they have found a man capable of carrying on where Fred (Buzz) Bor- | ries left off. He is John Schmidt, a fancy-stepping back who hails from St. Joseph, Mo. Schmidt turned in a gem when he caught a Virginia kick-off on his own 10-yard line and | raced through the entire Cavalier team for a touchdown. Schmidt put new life into the Midshipmen when he was leading the attack. In three} games, against William and Mary, | Mercer and Virginia, Navy ran up a | total of 83 points while yielding only \ 7 to the opposition.

THE MAN IN THE [RON MASK By BILL KING (Associated Press Sports Writer) The first sign of spring at Boston University’s school of business ad- of well-fed major league ball players lolling about in wicker chairs, smok- ing rich, black cigars, on the wide granite steps of the Hotel Brunswick, | in the heart of Boston's famed Back Bay. This touch of spring convinced the boy Gordon Stanley Cochrane, now manager of the world champion Detroit Tigers, that he wanted to be a ball player. It was early in 1922 and | “Kid"” Cochrane was a college jun- ior, paying his way by washing dish- | 2s in the university cafeteria.

Some day I'm going to be sit- | ting over there on the Brunswick steps, smoking a cigar and looking over here at some other guy wash- | ing these damned dishes.” Two years later Cochrane made good his boast.

The contest left the northerners little hope for the championship. With one upset already this year against UCLA, Stanford had to win this game to keep in the running. Private Battle The contest was largely a private battle between Bobby Grayson, Stan- ford All-American, and Byron Haines, Washington’s candidate for those honors, with Moscrip furnish- ing the balance of power for Stan- ford. Grayson carried the ball 21 times for gains of 80 yards, while Haines tried nine time for 58 yards. Grayson was largely responsible for the big Cardinal drives that placed the ball in position for Moscrip to boot his field goals.
