TROJAN CAPTAIN YEAR'S SENSATION “Dreary” Drury Displays Won- | derful Ability in Games | Los Angeles, Nov. 1 (UP) — A, blonde, blue eyed Nordic giant— | | “Dreary” Drury they call where his | fleet cleats have left a trail of shat- | |tered gridiron hopes—holds the eyes of the western football world today with promises that rational acclaim is not far removed, The “Thunderbolt" | calitornia’s undering Herd,” | | who has weaved, blocked, plunged, |intercepted and kicked his way into Pacific coast conference history as the greatest back to perform on the west coast in many years, promises to become the *Nemesis of Notre Dame.” Boyish, despite his huge frame, curly haired and cheerful Capt. Morley Drury is enthuslastic over everything but his own particular |abilities. Drury prefers to talk of |the system of the man who made him one of the outstanding gainers of football lore—Howard Jones, | brother of the Yale mentor. Howard Jones is a builder of pow- of Southern 0|er units and his masterpieces live |on offense and therein lies the an- |swer to such performances as Drury rendered Saturday when he tore off 205 yards from scrimmage alone against California’s second “Won- |der Team,” gaining more ground |from scrimmage than the entire 11 | representing the Golden Bears. Two Saturdays before Drury gain- ed a total of 163 yards against Stan- |tord university, 1926 champlons of the Pacific Coast conference, and in- bly would. have resulted in touch- downs for the Cardinals as they were intercepted after they had |passed the last Trojan defensive | unit. | At times, and particularly to the | opposing team, Drury's consistent ground gaining on consecutive plays |grows monotonous. The speed at | Which he rips oft tackles, and circles | ends, is one of the wonders of west- ern football. Drury passes with speed and ac- |curacy. He punts with distance |and efficiency. He runs interfer- {ence. He blocks and tackles like a madman. | Drury was born February 8, 1904 at Midland, Ontario, Canada, but took his high school tralning at Long Beach, California where he | was graduated in 1924. He Is a | brother of John Drury, nationally known hockey star. | The Trojan captain received some of his early knocks which hardened him at tie ship yards in the Long Beach bay district. At that time he played football with the Keel club, a team composed of young football- ers who were working on the docks in the ship yards Early in his sophomore year Drury Injured a knce which kept him out of the game long enough for him to acquire the monicker “Bad Knee He warmed the| beneh last year nursing his trick | knee and watching Morton Kaer | make the All-American. It was a| common sight to see Morley Drury | on the Trojan campus making his | | way from one class to another on a pair of crutches, This year, however, the word went |out to “watch Drury.” “Pop” War- ner said it over and over to his| charges and well might Knute| Rockne take up the refrain. | Drury plays bascball and is a first | string varsity basketball player, as | well as a member of the water polo | and ice hockey teams. | AMATEUR TOURNEY Five Man Boxing Team from New Jersey to Battle in Hartford Ring | | | Hartford, Nov. 1(®—A filve-man | amateur boxing team from Newark, | N.
