Trojan Fans March On Indian Crusade
Arnett to Finish SC Grid Career
By JIM MORAD Daily Trojan Sports Editor
You’d think it was a crusade or something, the way Trojan students and alumni are jamming into San Francisco this weekend.
Who know’s maybe it is. The Stanford-SC football game tomorrow at Memorial Stadium in Palo Alto is certainly turning out to be more than just another game.
When more than 10,000 people decide to pick up their bags and travel 500 miles to watch a couple footba.'l teams in action, something «lse must be at stake.
It isn’t difficult to surmise what’s at stake for a proud Trojan following that saw the PCC last summer rip its team of players, Rose Bowl incentive, a possible conference championship and a pocketful of hard cash.
They are meeting the team whose representatives they feel should have sided with the Trojans in those nasty scandals. The Stanford representatives instead chose a completely opposite stand and ended up as one of the leaders in the back-room battle against the Trojans.
Stun.ned and angered, a number of influential Trojans tried to dig uy proof for a smear campaign against Stanford. Constant publicity then aggravated the situation until today Trojan fans are determined to get back at them the only way they can—by trouncing Stanford on the football field and destroying their Rose Bowl hopes.
For Stanford fans, the situation is a bit different. They are out to prove that the Trojans deserved what they got and should take their medicine without crying, “Brother Rat.”
The whole messy back-room issue, then, is expected to be resolved out of doors on the gridiron tomorrow at 2 p.m. before a capacity crowd of 82,000 bipartisans.
On top of all that, the main attraction will be the swan song of one of the greater players in SC football history—All American Jon Arnett.
Arnett, making his final appearance as a Trojan because of the PCC five-game ineligibility ruling, will try to end his career by becoming the second highest ground gainer in SC annals.
Right now he’s gained 1781 yards. Gus Shaver, in second place, has 1889 yards on the books. So Arnett needs only 109 yards to surpass the former 1929-31 Trojan great.
In first place, virtually out of Arnett’s reach with only one game remaining, is Orv ."Mohler, with 2028 yards gained
Also making their final appearances as Trojans are six other players. They are Quarterback Frank Hall, Tackle George Belotti, Tackle Fabian Abram, End Chuck Leim-bach. Fullback Bob Lsaacson and Halfback Fred Pierce.
When the Trojans run out on the field tomorrow they will be slight 3-point favorites to whip the Indians for the 20th time in the long and colorful series.
Experts feel that the combined running attack of Arnett and C. R. Roberts, the greatest duo in the nation, will be too much to handle for the team that sports the greatest passer in the nation, John Brodie.
A least history will be on SC’s side for this game. Last week against Washington, the Trojans had to break a jinx which saw them losing or tying their fourth game of the season three years in succession.
Against Stanford, however, the Trojans have lost only two out of 15 games played in Palo Alto. The first was in 1934 when Howard Jones lost to the Vow Boys, 16-0, and the second was in 1940 when Frankie Albert led the Indians to a 21-7 victory.
Strategy for both teams, at this point, is quite evident. SC plans endless ball control on the ground, only passing on occasion to open up the defense.
For Stanford, in light of SC’s pass defense Ineptness, it looks like Biodie will throw at least 25 passes, to either End Carl Isaacs or Halfback Flanker Paul Camera, occasionally keeping the ball himself on an optional run or handing it off to Lou Valll for an off-taekle plunge or scoot around end.
Bay City Attracts Rabid Football Fans

Mark Twain called Sun Francisco “The most cordial and sociable city in tlie* Union.” Rudyard Kipling claimed it has only one drawback — “ tis hard to leave.”
James Bryce says, “Few cities in the world can vie with San Francisco either in the beauty or in the natural advantages of her situation; indeed, there are only two places in Europe Constantinople and Gibraltar that combine an equally perfect landscape with what may be called an equally imperial position.”
And after a weekend in this “Baghdad by the Bay,” 50ÜU
Trojan rooters no doubt will say "We agree.”
Nowhere in the world can the traveler lind such a diversity of attractions as are offered in San Francisco. In the city, which measures only seven miles

The wharf, located on the northern shore of the harbor (which may be reached by catching the cable car in front of the Sir Francis Drake Hotel) is the home port of the Pacific’s Italian fishing fleet.
It is one of the spots which make San Francisco so diversely picturesque particularly with sightseers. This is like some old-world port on tin* Italian coast.
Utterly foreign is the manner ol the fisherman and their families. They scarcely seem to lie (Continued oa Page I)
