SPORTS. THE EVENING WASHINGTON, D. C FRIDAY SPFORTS THREE FACE GREAT TEAMS TOMORROW [Trojans, Tulane, Utah Held Too Strong for Huskies, Cougars, Oregon State. BY L. H. GREGORY. ane: Tulane Utah-Oregon State: Utah Northwest does the foot ball season extend beyond the Satur- day after Thanksgiving, and the| Northwest teams bring their long schedule to a close this week with | three games, two of which are in- tersectional contests ‘Washington goes to Los Angeles to play Bouthern California in the only Conference game of the three, which also is the final one on the Coast Co: ference listing. The championship al- ready is settled in favor of Southern California’s Trojans. Even a Wash- ington victory could not deprive the; of the title. The one thing at stal is Washington's ambition to make good showing after a not too satisfa tory season Trojans Should Be Ready A week earller Washington might have been quite a menace, for this would have caught Southern California on the reaction from the Notre Dame game. With two full weeks in which | to recuperate from that stressful con- flict, however, there is not much danger now that Washington will find the Tro- | Jans out of form. ‘Washington probably will be minus the services of Bill Marsh, her sturdy quarterback and left-handed passer. He is suffering from chronic appen- | dicitis. It will be the last varsity foot bell game for Merle Hufford, Washing- | ton's flying halfback, and for Paul | jon the Columbia :curts | weeks ago in the Washington game, but is back in uniform | | ‘The one game of the three to be | played in the Northwest is that be- | | tween Oregon State and Utah in Port~ | land.

TROUSER To Match Your Odd Coats | down” with her private bank, and get your Car ready WINTER is hard on automobiles. It means extra wear on your battery. Extra crankcase dilution from too much “choke.” Extra wear on gears and every other moving part. Occa- sionally real repair bills—and a real recondi- tioning job when spring comes around. “Standard” Winter Lubrication Service is designed to save you this expense. Drive into any “Standard” Station or dealer's. Ask to have him put your car in shape for winter driving. Your crankcase will be thoroughly drained, flushed and refilled with the proper winter consistency of motor oil. Every part of your car will be systemati- cally gone over and supplied with the right oils and greases. It doesn't take long. It costs very little. But it will repay you many times over—in easier driving, in fewer repair bills, in the better condition of your car. Real winter weather is just around the corner. Have your car put in shape now.
