Instead, finishing up with 165, Maston played after I\ second straight having the cast 100-plus yardage removed as the. game outing. got underway. Butler talled twice, Whittler was the ultimate victim, sustaining a 27-20 defeat at the hands of the Maston-led Westerners. It

The remarkably similar treks of U.S. International University and the Universi- ty of San Diego through the long football season continue today. Both are at home, USIU vs. Whittier College at I:30 p.m. on the Camp . Elliot campus field and USD vs. Pomona-Pitzer at 7:30 at Al- cala Park. Both are seeking their sec- ond victories of the year against three losses. Both are conling of! painful - literally - road losses last week. Both schools' lone suc- cess came on the same day, Sept. 27, when USD whipped LaVerne and USIU routed the same Pitzer team that visits the Toreros tonight. But the most striking simi- larity, at least the one that evokes the greatest groans from coaches Dick Logan of USD and Bob Burt ol USIU, is the teams' injury list, which in both camps stretches from the field house to the infirmary. Eleven Toreros will watch the Pitzer game in street clothes, and as lew as 27 Westerners could suit up for the Whittler contest. The Torero lame include six starters, among them both offensive guards and the center. Palm Springs freshman Chris Monica will make his collegiate debut at quarterbcack in the absence of the injured Dan Chaix, and regular running back John Tryon must now desert that post in favor of defen- sive cornerback since starter Steve Goodbody ls out !or the season. This ls a brighter side. Backs John Butler and Terry Frank turned in top performances in last week's see-saw 32-29 loss to Whittier, Butler running !or 101 yards and Frank tying a school record wijh three touchdowns. Logan admitted, as diplo- matically as possible, that this was an ideal juncture !or a meeting with a Pitzer team that is suffering through its second straight of! year. The Sagehens are 0- 3 and have scored just 12 points whlle giving up 123. "We'd Ile in real trouble ii we were meeting a more established team," Logan said. "We're in trouble any- way I' As for morale after the bitter Whittier loss (USD blew a big earl lead, then came back twi before los- ing), LogPn said, It was a tough d?I but the kids bounced ack real well "We haven t beertable to have any contact all week, because or the 1njuries," he added. "We haven't had a down of scrimmage."

USIU, its meager ranks thinned dangerously by a se- ries ol severe injuries, can't aflord to Jose anyone else or there will not be enough Westerners to scrimmage, period. At one time or another this afternoon, at least six Westerners will be playing both offense and defense. They are fullback-linebacker Larry Nasella, guards•line- backers John Diannunzio and Dave Singery, tackle Dave Newman, receiver-de- fensive back Matt Anderson and tight end-linebacker Larry Castagnola. Nasella and Arnold Moore are the only two running backs intact, though tailback Steve Maston, who had three 100-yard games to credit before suffering a• broken hand, may get into action again. Fullback Gaylon Zissa p<>- sitively is out with a broken hand. Whittier, after losses to UC Riverside and Azusa Pa- cific and a tie with Cal State Los Angeles, got well at USD's expense last week. The Poets have a stable of good runners in Dan Chika- mi, Terry Howse, John Stewart and Lionel Punc- hard, and quarter Macdonald scored 11111>1,o•rh- down and passed in his team's comeback.

By NOEL OSMENT "Sarah Bernhardt was the most liberated woman ever." That is one way that Stephanie Rich, 28, an ac- tress and student of mime, bills her one-woman show, in which she portrays the French actress, whO lived from 1845 to 1923. Miss Rich will bring her show to the Camino Theater al Universi- ty of San Diego at 4 p.m. today as part of the universi- ty's Women in France week. Miss Rich first became fascinated with "the divine Sarah" ( also termed "the monster" by some, she said), when she was an un- dergraduate drama student at Memphis State Universi- ty. 'Madame Sarah' by Cornelia Otis Skinner and !ell in Jove with her character. As I reap more, I found a remarkable human being - not just a histrionic actress, but a se- rious artist. But she was also a business woman who knew how to grab a headline." Miss Rich said the famous actress was liberated both m her lifestyle and m the !act that "no one could tell her what to do." After finishing graduate · school at Trinity University in San Antonio and perform- ing and teaching in Dallas, Miss Rich was accepted to tu!iY · · · .· ir M u and, dunng these years, her interest in Bernhardt continued. She developed her show, she said, as an acting exer- cise, was encouraged to enter it in the Edinburgh Arts Festival in 1973, and was one of six or 200 at the show to receive an award. She spent the next year taking her show through Eu- rope. Stage managers help her with the show but she carries her set and costumes with her in a trunk and suit- case. The set, she said, is de- signed to reflect the art deco milieu, which nurtured the almost exaggerated style of Bernhardt. In her show, she said, she tries to show the woman in the light ol her time and to help others understand the French actress' impulsive and spontaneous nature, which appeared flamboyant. She said she spent 2½ years of research on Bernhardt, reading, listening to tapes and looking at old lilrns. She will also include a mime presentation in the show. "I first read
