Good Form Saturday—
Injury to Noble Slight.
Head Coach Tad Jones will make
no changes in the Yale line-up until
after the Brown game next Saturday
and probably not until the Army is
met the following week-end. Satur-
days lineup against Dartmouth stood
the test so well that it will take the
field practicdi’fintact a game or
two longer.
The only possible exception is at
right tackle. where Billy Vandergritt
regular. was compelled to watch yes-
terday's game on the side lines be-
cause of an injury. Ryan. in his
place. played like a veteran tackle.
although compelled to retire with a
twisted ankle.
Only two injuries were rcccived by
Yale players the past week. that to
Ryan and a bruised shoulder by
Larry Noble. Trainer George Con-
nors believes that both these players
will be in football uniform by Wed-
ncsday.
However. none of the veteran.-
who had been shelved previously by
injuries is expected to return to the
line-up this week. Among these are

~ IN FAMOUS CALIFORNIA TILT
lly ERNIE NEVERS.
All-America Fullback, 1.25.
"What is the greatest thrill
got out of football during your three
years at Stanford ?"
YOU
No question is put to me oftcncr
by football enthusiasts than
it's a fairly
tough task to answer it.
I can recall any number of long
forward passes. thrilling end
goals from the field in a pinch and
one. And believe me

.l
After much thought i doubt if i
ever got quite the kick out of ally
situation as 1 did from two reverse
passes we pulled against California.
enabling us to get a tie at a time
when it appeared as if we were
hopelessly beaten. '
It is just possible-that the fact
that (‘dlifornia was the victim has
much to do with my rating the two
plays as the biggest thrills of my
career.
Fer years California. under the
late Andy Smith. was the outstand-
lng eleven on the coast. Not leased
with this situation. other lea ing in-
stitutions sought famous coaches
able to turn out teams that would
successfully cope with California.
That goal has been accomplished.
Perhaps it was the playing a tie
game with California that makes
lhoso two reverse passes stand out
as the biggest thrills of my entire
career.
With six minutes to play. Califor-
nia was leading Stanford 20-6. It
was evident to our coach. Glenn
Warner. that some speedy action.
involving real deception, was neces-
sary if Stanford was to have a
chance to save the day.
he reverse pass was signaled for
as a play that might upset the oppo-
sltion.
The first bit of strategy pulled in
connection with the passes had noth-
ing to do with the actual completion
of the plays. but was simply do-
caption.
Just as the two teams lined up. a
Stanford fullback. noted for his
plunging ability. was rushed into the
game.
It immediately had the desired ef.
fect. Expecting a plunging game. be-
cause of the injection of this player
into the contest. it."sucked in" the
California backfield and set the
stage for the passes.
The plays started in exactly the
same .manher but in each instance
the ball went to a different receiv-
er.
The ball was passed direct to the
fullback. who in turn slipped it to
the right halfback. who stopped in
his tracks when from seven to eight
yards back-of the line of scrimmage.
in one of the plays the ball went
to the left halfback on a fairly long
pass and resulted in a touchdown.
In the ,other play. it went to the
right end on a long pa. and another
tenchdown was scored.
.- With less than six minutes to go.
Stanford had tied up the biggest
gaineof the year on two trick plays.
after being apparently outclassed.
20-6.
That was my biggest thrill.
