South's Prestige Boosted by
Alabama - Washington
0verthroWS California.
\ BY Billy Evans
NDA Service Writer

When Washington meets Alabama
at Pasadena, Cal, New Years day
in the Tournament Of Roses classic,
it will be a clash between two cham
pionship football teams.
Washington. indicated on the
coast, conquerors OF Stanford and
California, holds the Pacific Confer
ence title. Alabama is the champion
Of the South.
Regardless of which team wins,
the climate alibi will not be offered
by the vanquished.
Even Weather Basis
Eastern and Middle West teams
have been handicapped in the past
by the almost midsummer weather
that usually greeted them on the
coast. Alabama is accustomed TO
hot weather. 1t will be the first
time the two teams in this big game
have met on so even a basis as to
weather conditions.
Washington boasts great team
Coached by Enoch Bagshaw, 1t was
able to overthrow the reign of Cali
fornia that has lasted for five years
on the coast.
The outstanding stars of the
Washington back field are Wilson at
half back, an all-American choice
Tesreau at full, the only man to ever
outplay Nevers Of Stanford, and
Quarter Back Guttermsen, the brains
of the team.
TwO-Time Champs
For two years Alabama. under
Coach Wade. has won the southern
championship. In the three years
that Wade has directed football af-
fairs at Alabama the team has suf-
fered only three defeats.
In the last twenty southern con-
ference games played by Alabama,
covering period OF three years, the
Crimson Tide. as the team is known,
has scored $40 points, against "a for
the opposition.
Against all twenty-eight opponents
during Wade's tenure of coaching at
Alabama, his teams have scored 779
points, against 81 for their oppo-
nents. The greatness of the Ala
bama machine was first noticed ma
tionally when it defeated the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania team at
Philadelphia.
South Feels HOnOred
When Alabama meets Washington
at Pasadena it will be the first time
Southern eleven has been selected
to appear in this big event. The
South feels that the invitation to
meet Washington definitely estab-
fishes the status of football in that
section.
This years Alabama team is called
one of the best the South ever has
known. Washington has a similar
rating on the Coast.
1t should be a great battle between
two championship teams. we'll

tive sections.

Big Grid Coaches Adopt
Hands Off Policy Regard

Bv United Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 25.-With such
established authorities as Knute
LRockne, Tad Jones, Glenn Warner
Fielding Yost. Bill Roper, Andy
Smith, Jess Hawley and others toe
numerous to mention, lined up with
a policy of ''hands off," there isn't
much chance that the fathers OF
football will take any action against
the forward pass at the next meet
ing of the football rules committee
Practically all of the leading
coaches are of the opinion that the
game is almost perfect now, is en-
joying it's greatest popularity ano
they agree that the forward pass
is responsible for the growth of the
game.
1.-THE open game" Rockne and
Yost said recently, makes the game
better for the spectator and for the
player"
Speed and Science
1.-THE forward pass" Edward K
Hall, chairman of the rules commit.
tee says, has improved the game
by putting speed and science ahead
Of beef and Drawn"
The complaints against the for
ward pass have come chiefly from
coaches of teams that were defeated
by forward passing attacks.
"The forward pass, regardless OF
the perfection of it's execution, is moi
without Defense" Yost said
There isn't a play known to foot
ball that cannot be stopped by de
Tense against It,"
For man who has beer asso
ciated with football for so many
years, Yost has kept himself very
modern. II he had not kept abreast
of the times, Michigan would not
be the great football institution that
it is and Yost would be one of the
old moss-back conservatives who
cried when the forward pass was
adopted and who have been spilling
tears ever since.
He's Agreeable Coach
Yost showed not only that he was
a fine sportsman but that he was
willing to experiment with any kind
of a novelty when he agreed to play
two games against Minnesota next
fall.
Minnesota has the prospects of a
wonderful team next fall and per-
maps some of the Western Confer.
ence coaches were willing to find an
excuse to keep them off their
schedules
The Minnesota team has had
great difficulty in getting confer
ence opponents, some of the rival
coaches falling back on the excuse
that the shift used at Minnesota is
Illegal.
"Some of them" Yost says, 'are
afraid of the shift, it never was
stopped until Michigan stopped it
and we can do it again"
