Shaughnessy Seeks Big Ten Win for Maroons
Chicago coach Clark Shaughnessy, teaching on the faculty, says a victory over Illinois in the season finale matters little for his job. He praises 12 players as a brave, hard working group facing a tough schedule with limited reserves. He notes spring practice was scant and many players lacked high school game experience, but remains hopeful for 1938 and a stronger education and football balance.
