...unruffled direction of Lieut. Commander Matthews (George Brent), everything goes like clockwork. In the equalizing chamber the crew stands chattering about horseraces and San Diego girls while water creeps up to their waists, submerges the lower end of the tubular escape hatch. Presently the hatch cover is raised, a line attached to a cork buoy shoots upward to the surface and the men don "escape lungs," resembling hot-water bags. Then with clips holding their noses and mouthpieces gripped between their teeth, the crew in alphabetical order follow the escape line by easy stages to the surface...

...them power plays, yet so well executed and so well mixed by pot-bellied Quarterback John Meek that they remained effective. Key man of the California team is six-foot four-inch All-America Centre Bob Herwig, who snaps the ball unerringly, runs fast interference, and backs up the line on defense. Most likely California All-America this year is Halfback Sam Chapman. He is the best punter in the Pacific Coast Conference, a good passer and runner, a fearless ankle-tackler. On the defense Centre Herwig receives sterling support from Guard Claude Evans, one of the most dangerous tacklers...
