TROJANS TO PRIME
FOR PITT OFFENSE
Jones to Give His Eleven
Respite on Christmas
Day Only.
BY PAUL b. ZIMMERMAN,


Y OS ANGELES, December 21-If
the early bird still gets all the
plunder, then the University of
IL Southern California gridsters
should cut something of a figure
in their clash with the Panthers of
Pittsburgh in the tournament of roses
classic at Pasadena New Year day.
Coach Howard Jones, the man who
guides the pigskin deStinieS of the men
of Troy, has ordered morning practice
for a purpose, with no excuse of an
examination or laboratory session avail
able as an alibi for tardy appearance at
the $50 am. session.
But there is no vacation time from
foot ball lessons. After yesterday S
signal practice, the first workout since
the Trojan victory over Carnegie Tech,
the U. S. c. grid experts will gather this
morning for dummy scrimmage.
Coach Jones planned to be on hand.
forgetting bad cold, and ready to map
out a defense aimed to smother the
flashy attack presented by the un-
beaten Panthers.
With the return of Jesse Hill. the
fastest fullback on the Pacific Coast,
the Southern California foot ball board
of strategy expressed the belief that,
with the full reserve strength on hand,
little time will be necessary for the
polishing Of an attack.
This means that the greater part of
the time will be given over to prepara-
ton for the offensive with which Coach
Jock Sutherland's aggregation hopes to
deal out defeat to the Western eleven.
One break will come in the training
grind, when the Trojans make holi-
day of Christmas, but strenuous work
will be taken up again the next day,
with all the Southern California play
ers breaking camp and moving to the
shadows of the Arboyo Seco, so that
they may complete their preparations
in the Rose Bowl, scene of the annual
East-West encounter.
