WARNERS BAG OF TRICKS. L*”"” )OKS as if Coach • Glenn Warner of Stanford is up 1o | his old tricks of putting f something unusual over on the op. !position, according to information 1 [have just received from ’lie Pacific S coast.

A majority of ‘.he uick plays of a freak na Jure that have been pulled on the gridiron, are credited to War uer. "Pop” appears to cet a kick out of his gridiron sleight of hand

since he is constantly 'hoiking up something new to spring on the unsuspecting opposition. The other day I received a letter from a prominent Eastern football star of ten years ago, now located on (lie coast and who still retains his old Jove for the game. COAST PLAYS FOOTBALL “T—IHEY play real football out J I I hare,” the letter starts. “The | I Stanford and Southern Cali tbmla teams are the equal of any In the country and there are a half dozen others ‘close behind, “Kaer. of Southern California. Bogus and Hyland of Svinford .md Kelly of Montana comprise a hackflaki that would be hard to be;'!. "This hidden ball sniff may be new In the East but Warner has been using if for years. This year 90 per cent of his plays start with a simple re, versa, in which Hoffman handles the bail and then proceeds to mystify the opposition. "Warner is still up to trick stuff. His latest hns Hoffman, flullbaek, who is filling Ernlo Nevers' shoes, as Its hero, ' • 810 HANDS PLAY TART T JHE funny I part of Warner's I' I’ I latest stunt. Is that he L_f_J merely makes use of Hoffman's large hands to puli his magic. "I saw the meeting between Stanford and Southern California, u great game in which Stanford got the breaks to win 18-12. "The natives of Los Angeles are still talking about the play in which Hoffman’s hands, which are as big as the wellknown bam, pulled the stuff. Really, Hoff man can almost cover a football with his hand. At leasil be can conceal most of it, "With the bail in Stanford's pas session on Southern California’s four-yard lino, the slaighfcof-hand play was called. Southern California expecting a line thrust had tightened up to meet lt“fW INCITING the ball on a diJv rect pass from center, M>tCroeley, Hoffman faked t pass to right halfback, Bogue. As ha passed Hoffman, Bogue apparently was handed the bail by that player. “Instead Hoffman turned his arm and placing the ball behind his back. > a, la the play of the old Carlisle Indians when it. was concealed under the sweater, dashed through the lino for three yards before It was discovered he had the ball. “Passing the tine <rf scrimmage he brought the hall back lo the proper position before being tackled. On the nnvt play he went over for a touchdown. “Whtld the play could hardly be recommended because of the great possibilities of a fumbla, it was -. pulled by Warner and quite successfully.” Have a care, Alabama! However, last season Alabama showed Washington and coast fans a few copyrighted tricks of Its own.

‘SYSTEM’ GRIDIRON RATING Prof. Dickinson Ranks Stanford National Champ— Navy Placed Second. Bu United Press CHAMPAIGN, 111., Dec. 18.—Tne Stanford University football team is the national champion, according to the Dickinson football rating system, and will be presented with the Riasman trophy, emblematic ,of the '‘Dickinson championship,” probably Jt tho Stanford-Alabama game on New Year's day. The Dickinson rating ranks teams upon tho strength, of opponents, it takes iu only games played during the regular season, not including post s< ason contests, so tho outcome of the Stanford-Alabama post-season contest will not affect the award. Stanford had 22.50 points under the Dickinson system. Navy, with only a tie with the Army against its record, ranked second with 21.88. Notre Dame and Michigan were next iii tho list with 21.25 each. Other teams ranked as follows: Lafayette. 2d: Southern California. 17.50; Alabama, 1(5.07; Ohio State, 16.25; Army, 14.38: Brown, Northwestern, Illinois and Pennsylvania, 13.75 each. Alabama was given a low rating because of the weakness of the teams in the Southern Conference, Prof. Frank G. Dickinson, who originated the system, said. Under Dickinson's system Dartmouth would have been national champion last year, and the “four horsemen" team of Notre Dame would have won the title in 1924.

TIGERS STAGE FURIOUS FINISH; DOWN PURDUE Boilermakers Lead at Half, but Get Nosed Out, 34-28, When De Pauw Speeds Up Offense.

By Dick Miller Tim'- Sta f f Corresvcnder-' LAFAYLTTIS, Tnd.. Dec. —ln a net ganu that had all the color of a late January struggle, De Pauw catr.e back Friday night and handed the Purdue Boilermakers a 34-28 defeat. The Do Pauw team that had been downed by Indiana University, that, was reputed to be without n strong center,, supposed to be weak nt back guard, and doped to be defeated by Lambert's five, delivered n hidden punch and upset the Big Ten outfit. Purdueites had a 17-15 margin at the half, because they had that much better offense than De Tauw- a defense. The Tigers were playing all defense. Then, in the second half, with Wilcox banished on personal fouls, the Do Pauw style changed to all offense. The change meant victory. In a late game rally. In which Steward and Byram played the important parts, tho Methodist score mounted. During the struggle the game was tied up at, 7, 12 and 23 all, and the large crowd that packed the big Purdue gym was continuously on Its feet. Purdue played in greatly improved style over Its last game with State Normal, but lacked drive. "Wheeler started out with two foul shots and a field basket that kept Purdue up with, the Tigers, who had jumped into an early lead. Both teams elected to play the stalling game almost from the start. However, when one did elect to try for baskets the other's defense was too much. First one team scored and then the other until Cummins came through with a couple from the field that sent the score to 17. Just before the half ended Sturtridge unleashed one that was in the air when the gun sounded and it cut the halftime lead to two points.
