William Corbus[1] (October 5, 1911 – January 8, 1998) was an American gridiron football player and supermarket executive.
Nicknamed "The Baby-Faced Assassin" due to his youthful appearance and athletic ferocity, Corbus, who acted as placekicker as well as offensive lineman, was Stanford's first two-time All-American in 1932 and 1933.
[2] In 1933, Corbus kicked two late field goals to defeat USC 13–7,[3] helping to fulfill a promise made by his teammates from the class of 1936—a group known as the Vow Boys—to never again lose to USC.
[2] That year, Corbus helped Stanford the first of three straight Rose Bowl Game appearances before graduating as an honor student and student body president.
[2] Corbus played in the era before the NFL draft, and did not continue in professional football.
