Finally Rariden decided that
he should run Collins down. He
headed him back toward third

chance to make a double play,

arm. He touched nothing-but

PRAISED
FOR COACHING
ON COAST

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 81
AlonZo Stagg, the grand old
man" of football. has taken the
Pacific Coast by storm.
His little college of the Pacific
gridiron team-the second college
at which he has coached in more
than two decades proved itself
during the past season as one Of
the most brilliant in the West.
All because, as Stagg himself
admits. he "fits the system to the
material"
Only Broke Even a..
Although the College of Pacific
only broke even in games won and
lost, it showed it's mettle by. &C.
cepting only one touchdown de-
feats at the hands Of st. MarY'S
and Loyola of Los Angeles, two,Of
the best teams on the Coast.
"When I came to the Coast, I
found was blessed with great
forward passer in Tom Wilson,
and built my entire attack
around him." Stagg explained.
AS a result, the man whose
name was synonymous with the
University Of Chicago in the past,
established in one brief season
the reputation of developing about
as fancy passing attack as the
Coast has ever seen. =.
Tricks In Store
More tricks are in store in the
future, Stagg insists.
81 only wish had Wilson
back for another year." he Ias
ments.
"He graduates from college
next June, and without him
will be forced to change things
around in a manner that will
bring more tricks into play. In
the next few years the fans viii
see some wide open play from
our Pacific team" -
Stagg explained that changing
his system to fit his men is moth.
ing new for him. He had to re-
sort to this constantly during his
40 years at Chicago.
eligibility rules we're very
high at Chicago" he asserted,
"and sometimes our material
would run very thin. / always
believed that 1 should make my
plays to fit the men 1 had, and
I'm still doing it. This means
that my teams may look diff
ferent from season to season.
MANY NEW IDEAS ="
"I'm going to give football
many new ideas. 1t is hard to
open up when you haven't got
the proper material to work
with, but as the material gets
better we will be able to do
more things" -
Stagg made a strong impress
sion on Los Angeles fans and
sports writer's alike following his
appearance here against Loyola,
which College of the Pacific lost
after a thrilling struggle.
Wilson was said by local sports
writer's to be the equal of any
Of the great passers developed in
recent years at the University Of
Southern California. Mark Kelly,
noted local sports editor. selected
Stagg as coach for his ALI
