PANTHERS FOCUS
ON SCORING PLAYS
Work Out New Attack for
Rose Bowl Game-Trojans
LaCkadaiSiCaI.

By the Associated Press.
"UCSON, AriZ.. December 20
From behind the barred gates to
the University of Arizona Sta
dium where Coach Jock Suther-
land is drilling the Pittsburgh Panthers
came news today the Eastern team,
which meets Southern California in the
Rose Bowl in Pasadena, January 2, will
offer something new in the way of
offense.
Coach Sutherland with a full week
remaining to train his sqled. repeatedly
has discarded defensive drills in favor
of plays likely to score against the
Trojans. For the Panthers during the
remainder of the week, it will be a
two-a-day performance, drills being
scheduled for both morning and
afternoon.
The PantherS were idle Christmas,
spending the day sightseeing on the
desert. They will leave here for Los
Angeles on Saturday.
los ANGELES. December 26 (P,.-
IL Coach Howard Harding Jones of
l0e university OF southern CdIl-
fornia reassembled his gridiron grena-
diers today after two days Of rest. for
the final drive toward the Rose Tourna-
ment foot ball game with Pittsburgh a
Weel: away.
Todays was to be the first of three
or four mornings of hard work, with a
defense to build a bit higher, and an
cfense to be brightly polished for the
Panthers
Not at all apart from this. Coach
Jones also faced perhaps his hardest
task in getting his men into fighting
pitch for the contest. The players
found it hard in pre-Christmas work
outs to take the game seriously.
Unlike the public, which already has
purchased more than half of the "a 900
tickets TO the C0lorful annual en-
counter the Trojans can't forget that
great Pittsburgh team was beaten
II to IA three years ago by a Southern
California eleven.

uTOOT BALL writes H. F., has
'H the greatest sporting follow
ing of any game We have.

- the greatest sporting follow
ing of any game We have.
But it strikes me that We
have too many rule changes, too many
guardians or protectors OF this sport.
Maybe 1 am wrong"
There always is a good chance, in
making any statement, of being wrong.
l doubt that more people are inter-
eSted in foot ball than in hunting and
fishing. Certainly those who take part
in foot ball form only small percent
age OF those who either hunt or flsh
and whose yearly license fees run into
many, many millions
Yet if the same directing interest that
foot ball knows were only shown in
protecting the wild life of this country
what difference it would make.
THE game, or wild life. conservation
i lists have just finished one of their
annual sessions in New York. At
this meeting it was shown that the
wild bird life in this country has
reached serious situation.
For example. black ducks. brants and
geese live largely on "eel grass Some
time back mysterious germ or growth
either came North ON the Gulf stream
or was swept Northward by the winds.
Whatever the cause. practically all eel
grass from the Carolinas to Nova Scotia
has been destroyed and this has led
to two destructive results:
l. Hundreds of thousands Of geese
and ducks are dying of starvation.
2. Many thousands of others are fly
ing inland in search of food. becoming
easy prey for any gunner.
This affects millions nf SDcrtSmpn and
important industries selling hunting
equipment. Yet out of the millions
directly interested not one-tenth Of l
per cent knows anything about this, and
apparently cares less.
They may take a trifle more interest
in seeing that food. cover and protection
are furnished wild bird life-after this
wild life is practically extinct.
This can't happen. of course. 1t
couldn't happen to the buffalo, but In
some way 1t did.
IN discussing foot ball records for the
i year, 1t might be we'll to say few
words about Nebraska.
This team cleaned up in its own
section, held Pittsburgh. one of the
and then lost by only a 7.6 margin
to Minnesota, one of the strongest teams
in the conference.
Nebraska had a star center and an
inspirational field leader in Ely and one
of the best defensive teams of the year
Nebraska and Texas Christian were two
outstanding teams in this department OF
play.
The T. G. U. line would have been
something for Notre Dame or Southern
California to handle.

An exhaustive study of ballistiCs Gin
which we have never engaged discloses
that a mesh ball flies yards further

the dimple flies 5 yards further than

These facts were established by a
machine hitting balls mechanically with

brown ANALYZES
BRUTALITY CASES
Report Asks One Be Dropped
and Others Studied by
Bride for Decision.

Inspector E. W. Brown, acting super
intendent Of police, returned to the Dis
trict Commissioners today eight alleged
police brutality cases, remnants of the
exhaustive Department of Justice third
degree investigation last Fall. Twelve
policemen are involved in these cases.
The report of Inspector Brown did
not contain any specific recommended
tions,, but analysed each of the eight
cases and suggested that the majority
Of them be referred to the corporation
counsels office to determine whether
charges should be preferred against the
policemen for disciplinary action by the
Police Trial Board. Inspector Brown
however, urged that one case be dropped
Culled From Sc Cases.
Conflicting testimony in many of the
cases raised the question, In Inspector
Browns opinion, as to the credibility of
the witnesses. This he wants the cor
poratjon counsel's Office to establish be-
fore proceeding with disposition of the
cases.
The eight alleged brutality cases
We're culled from Sc the Department of
Justice did not present to the grand
jury because it believed they were in
the non-indictable class Instead, the
Department referred them to the Dis
trict Commissioners, on the theory that
perhaps disciplinary action could be
taken against the men involved.
Action Follows Conference.
The Commissioners, in turn, sent the
records in each of the Sc cases to
Corporation Counsel William W. Bride
for examination and report. Many of
them were automatically dropped be-
cause the statute of limitations had
run out, and others were cast aside be-
cause the officers named we're among
the 10 indicted by the grand jury.
Brig. Gen. Pelham D. Glassford,
superintendent of police, made a per-
sonal study of the records in each of
the eight remaining cases before he
left Washington for a vacation in the
South, but left final disposition to his
executive staff. Inspector Browns re-
port was drawn up following confer
ence of the executive officers, at which
the cases were discussed in detail.
