By HARRY GRAYSON NEA Service Sports Writer The 1937 football season is on its | last legs, but before it bows out of | i | the picture completely it offers no | [less than eight choice meetings for | Saturday, which have all the ear- | | marks of developing into real ball | | games. Leading the parade is the Southern California-U. C. L. A. contest | in Los Angeles. They do say that | the fur will fly when these two in- | tercity rivals tie into each other, | and although the Trojans still are nursing the after effects of a bruis- | ing battle with Notre Dame, they | rate a slight edge over the Uclans. It’s doubtful that Amby Schindler will be ready for full-time ac- | | tion, but if he is it'll make Howard | | Jones’ problem just that much | | simpler.
