RESERVES Football games are won or lost in the fourth quarter and whether or not the fray goes Into the vic tory column depends upon the re serve strength of the team. Strong reserves allow the first squad time to rest before shooting the works in the fourth period. Maj. Jones Is going to have a hard time finding out which team Is the reserve team judging from the recent performance of the second squad. Last Saturday when the second string was run Into the scrimmage they accountd for two markers of their own and Wednes day when the major pulled a sur prise contact drill session the No. 2 setup ran wild piling up four touchdowns. The first string had bogged down after a passing com bination of Phelps to Knhler or Plock failed to bring results after advancing the red shirts 50 yards down uie neid. The boxing show for all univer sity students was postponed or rather canrellod at the last minute by an order from Denn Thoinp' son's office. It is a fine thing to have eligibility rules for the meet but when they are aplied so that freshman are not allowed to com pete that is destroying the spirit of the event. Varsity rules should he evoked only for teams planning to compete in intercolleginte clr cles. Bus Knight was making a tackle on Marv Plock Wednes day and in the process got kicked in the head. He insisted that he was all right but when turned loose he fell to the ground. Finally he was revived, dressed and went home. Thurs day morning Knight was un able to recall anything that transpired after he went in to put the tackle on Plock. Six man football was introduced at Hebron. Neb. in the fall of 1934 to allow small schools a chance to have football teams. In the short span of three years, these reduced squads have taken the mid-west by storm and thousands of schools have adopted the ays- US FRED PERRY English Athletes II inn More Versatile Americans, Believes Perrv; Says Tennis Should I5e Mere Hobby IN FMI PLAY Califomian Beats Britisher With Superb Volleys, Smashing Serves. Applause mixed with oh's and ah's were In order as Ellsworth Vines Increased his world's profes sional match game lead to a 24-19 margin over Fred Perry in the university coliseum Thursday night. A crowd of more than a thousand saw the former world's amateur champion trim the Eng lish Idol of the courts, 6-4, 2-6 and 6-3. Walter Senior, a former north ern Californlan amateur star, and newcomer to pro tennis, downed Berkeley Bell, the jackrabbit Tex an, 6-4, 6-4, In the preliminary match. Double play found Vines and Senior teaming to a 6-3, 6-1 win over Bell and Perry. Vine's Play Features. Vine's searing drives and smash ing serves were the highlight of the evening s card. The Californian without a doubt heads the present day net stars. The superhuman ability of Fred Perry to make re markable recoveries coupled with blinding returns from a racquet wielded by the strongest right wrist in tennis is the English man's challenge to the American's supremacy In pro play. Back court volleys and the net play of Vines were highlights of the feature match. Vine's play at the mesh proved to be his margin of superiority over his opponent. He constantly pulled the English man out of position, rushed the net, and scored with a smashing placement. Warm-up Match No Breather. The warm-up match between Bell and Senior was no breather. Senior's straight, smashing fore hand driving backhand brought out Bell at his best in covering the court. Bell had the better serve, appearing superior to Perry, but it was Senior's ability to keep Bell away from the net by driving to his backcourt that kept the "Tumbling Texan" from using his pet net game. Bell used a chop stroke as his best drive. Vines and Senior team up in a doubles combination that is diffi cult to match. Again it was Vines at the net, but with Senior beside him. The two cut off the best strokes in the kit of Bell and Perry. Both Vines and Senior scored often on placements from the net as the opponent was drawn out of position. By Ellsworth Steele. Fred Perry, formerly the world's ranking amateur tennis star and now one of the world's two out standing professional players, re clined nervously on a hotel bed, toying with a Liberty magazine as he answered questions. "Over here In America everyone specializes. In England we have more players who excel at many games, jacks of all trades. You have more people who specialize in one sport. Your college students play football or basketball or base ball, but not all of them. In Eng land players will get their blues (major letter at Oxford I in five or six sports." Best Juniors in California. Perry's restrained good nature showed the strain which the pro fessional tour puts upon the play ers. He commented frequently that rest was so necessary and that often the players did not get enough. His last week's schedule included four nights' playing in a row covering 1,000 miles in be tween. "You have belter juniors than England," stated the dark haired tennis star. "There are more in California alone than any place in the world, possibly except New South Wales, Australia. There they can also play tennis for 3fi.ri days out of the year. Vines' Service Hot. Perry said that the only way to play tennis is as a hobby. The big tennis stars do not keep the game alive; As in golf where the 100 and 90 shooters keep the spirit in the game, so In tennis it is the player who bangs the ball about once a week that keeps up the enthusi asm and interest. They are the ones who get the most fun out of it. "Budge could probably boat Vines out of doors, but he couldn't live with him indoors: Vines is too fast. Only one player has ever re turned his indoor service with any degree of accuracy and that's me. And that is only because return- SCHULTEMEN EYE iiffllPl SCHIMMEL iM DIRECTION Wnhusfer VJ L hn" "' fr DELTA GAMMA (, 1 Banquet .4 SIGMA ft A KAPPA f T Alumnae fff Luncheon HOME OF THE TH5TY PrSTRYShDP tern.

Tilden Still Tops. The man who helped England keep the Liavis cup as long us he remained an amateur, explained that since the time of Tilden and Richards the American have played better tennis in other forms of competition than in Davis cup. Vines played much better at Wim bledon in the open matches than as a Davis cup contendant. Play ers of other countries. Perry cited Von Cramm, Austin and himself, were at their best in the Davis cup matches. Turning to Big Bill Tilden, as most tennis interviewers do, Perry declared that Tilden even now at 46 could beat possibly all of the first class amateur players except Budge and Von Cramm in two out of three sets. Bright Future For Tennis. "His arms and legs are going back on him, but he can still play tennis. When you play Tilden, you do the running; he doesn't. The only men who made him run were Johnston and Lacoste." Winning the Davis cup should stimulate American tennis greatly, Perry believes. When Egland won I the cup in 1927 tennis players al most doubled in number. He would expect an increase of 10 percent in America. Having the world's greatest amateur in the country adds to the interest in tennis. Americans Equal British Fans. The Englishman says the American audiences and sports men aie on a par with any na tion, but that all nations have different ways of playing and showing their pleasure or dis pleasure. Sports enthusiasts are about the same the world around in their treatment of players. "Everyone is trying to bluff everyone else," Perry commented dryly on the International situa tion.

Only a week remains for track coach Schulte to whip his 1938 team into shape ror the opening of the outdoor season.

After the Texas meet, the nine men competing in that will to to Norman, Okl., where they will be rejoined by the rest of the squad. On April 5 they will open the de fense of their outdoor conference title, in a dual meet with the Sooners. Stiff Workouts. Hard work is the rule as the season opener draws near. Schulte has been sending his men thru stiff workouts each night. Several timed trials have been run off each night this week. John Brown lee and Al Kuper showed the way in practice yesterday, running a half mile, a 680, and a quarter mile, all against time. Brownlee was timed at 2:02 and Kuper at 2:03 for the half, and they fin ished in dead heats in each of the other two races, getting 1:30 in the 660 and :56.2 for the quarter. Harwln Dawson ran his third 220 this week last night, and turned in :22.2 for that distance around the curve. For about half of the way he had a light wind at his back. All his timed runs this week have been done In less than :23. After running a comparatively slow half mile, freshman Jim Mul len did a quarter in :57, leading Roy Gatch, varsity two miler, by a few feet. Tri-Color Meet Tuesday. The first outdoor tri-color meet of the season will be held next Tuesday afternoon. Of the indoor meets, three were won by the Reds and one by the Oranges. Except for additions, the teams will re main essentially the same for out door meets as they were for the indoor ones.
