He didn't make any In the second

It's Just a suggestion, but until
nffera a bettor one. we
can't see why Chicago gave up
football altogether.
The Maroons are staying m tne
Big Ten in everything but foot
ball, but we can't see where that
conference would have grounds to
object if Chicago scheduled a slate
of strictly minor league teams
two of which they played this year.
Of course, Chicago authorities
may want Big Ten football or

troit.

Walt Blckerton, six foot senior,

other returning mainstays are

beat California 38-32 in an extra

the Bears on the coast last year,

17 points against Ohio State, and
Ken Morgan are the otner Cali
fornia starters.
Al Randall has not been in the
starting lineup for the past two
games, as Hartmann Goetze and
Fitz opened at center against
Wisconsin and Detroit. Sid Held,
third high scorer on the team,
and who can play both center
and guard, or Charlie Vacanti,
who started against Detroit, will
probably handle the other guard
position.
