PACHO MEETS
ROSS TONIGHT

Bobby Pacho, who got his start in
boxing at the Imperial Valley Ath-
letic club, gets his big chance to-
night in Cleveland, Ohio, when he
meets Barney Ross, lightweight and
junior welterweight champion, for
the latter title. .....
Ross. one of the outstanding
boxers in the country, also held the
welterweight title for several
months this year, winning it from
Jimmy McLarnin last spring, only
to lose it back to the Irishman in
September.
Pacho is considered TO have a
good chance to beat the champion.
Shortly after Ross won the light
weight championship from Tony
Canzoneri, he met Pacho in Los An
geles. 1t was not lin the cards for
the champion to lose, unless Pacho
happened to knock him out, and he
nearly did that
The Mexican boy gave the cham
pion thorough working over and
in the opinion of ringsiders had
much the better of the bout, the
champions ring skill alone saving
him and permitting the decision to
be given in his favor.
Pacho has since met and defeat
ed some of the outstanding light
weights and welterweights Of the
country, his record emitting him TO
another shot at Ross.

COAST GRID
CHIEFS MEET

PALM SPRINGS, Calf, Dec. 10
[U.P1 = Radio broadcasting was
dragged out of the skeleton closet
today for its annual inspection by
Pacific Coast football conference
members.
Each year the question of broad
casting football games is debated
at the conference pow-wows with
opponents, thus far, always COM
posing a minority opinion. South
ern California and the University
OF California at Los Angeles re-
portedly were ready to oppose any
new move to ban broadcasting at
today's meeting, scheduled before
the graduate managers section.
AS usual ali meetings were con-
Quoted behind closed doors. Re-
ports, considered authoritative, in
dicated serious discussion would
attend a proposal to liberalize
rules that would permit more scor-
ing and favor a losing team. 1t
was said the following changes
would be considered:
l. To give the trailing team, in
stead of the team just scored on,
the right to kick off or receive af-
ter a touchdown.
2. Unlimited passing into the
end zone instead of losing the ball
on the second incomplete attempt,
as at present.
8. Adoption of passing rules
similar to those of professional
football, notably the rule permit
ting passing anywhere from be-
hind the line Of scrimmage. Present
collegiate rules require the pass to
start from five yards or more
beyond the line.
Schedule-making was another
important item on docket. Lead
ing aspirants for Coast conference
dates were the University of Ari-
zona and Drake of Iowa. Other
outsider" schools represented in
cluded st. Marys, Santa Clara,
Loyola, GonZaga, Fresno State,
California Aggies.
Northern division managers last
spring adopted the following track
schedule for next spring:
