While there was little opposi-

The rumblings of discord began
to appear as soon as Congress

read in the newspapers that it had
been agreed at the White House
conference yesterday evening to
try to push the tax bill through in
the short space of five days.
When the House convened, the
temper Of the rank and file
quickly became apparent.
WOodrum "Amazed'
Representative Woodrum 3D.
of Virginia, a steady supporter Of
Administration policies, expressed
amazement on the floor that it
was seriously contemplated to dis.
pose of such a far-reaching tax
measure by Saturday night.
He demanded:
"WhO are the leaders that are
going to ask passage of such a
comprehensive program in five

Representative O'Connor CD),
New York, chairman of the Rules

 Then you can store them in the tree. Poor Duncy gets too smart, you see. He tries to do things that he can't accomplish, now and then"
 Just then fair Goldy shouted, Hey. just look what's heading right this way. A band of funny little ants, and they are having fun.

OS ANGELES, January 1.-The
South, in a sporting way, faces
, New Year day with one Of the
largest programs it ever has

known.
Alabama, its champion, meets Stan
ford In the Rose Bowl game before
$4,000 spectators, the greatest foot
ball crowd of the year. Tulane. one
of its stronger teams, faces Temple
in the Sugar Bowl affair at new
Orleans before sell-out.
So here we have two crack South
ern teams riding double. facing the
Far West and the East, in two-play
test. No wonder the South is google
eyed as it waits for the double charge.
Alabama, facing Stanford. cham-
pion of the Pacific Coast, has just
one weak spot in its armor. No one
knows yet just what the strength OF
this team is since the Tuscaloosa
schedule was not of the highest order
and outside of the Tennessee game,
Alabama was never pressed to any
degree. -,
Stanford has two weak spots, with
all its strength. No one can be quite
sure how long Bobby Grayson and
Keith Topping, back and end, can
hold up against hard tackling and
hard blocking. That is one guess.
On the other side, Stanford hasn't
been overpowering in a year where
West Coast foot ball was certainly
not at its peak.
For all that, Alabama and
Stanford look to be two Of the
best teams in the Nation and
two of the best that ever fought
for the Rose Bowl trophy.
This time you can gamble that
Stanford will shoot the works. There
will be no lethargy and no Columbia
overconfidence.
Alabama has never lost game on
the West Coast and this isn't the type
of Alabama team that cares to break
that amazing record.
It can be said again that both
teams are big. fast, experienced and
ably coached.
That has to mean a foot ball game.

Dick Hanley and Andy Kerr have
collected one of the best teams of the

ing their talent into line. The East

tionally known stars, but this doesn't
always count in foot ball.
One of the big features of this
contest will be Cotton Warburton's

After a star year in 1888 the U. S. c..
luminary fell away in 1884. 1t re-

can come back to his 1888 contribution.
The South also is well repre-
sented in this game, but not
nearly to the same extent that
it happens to be at Pasadena
and the Rose Bowl, where its
foot ball pride will be at stake.
Alabama and Tulane carry the COL
ors of Dixie-and this applies to Ala
bama especially, the one team that
has yet to lower its flag along the
fairly well known Pacific.
So the new. year starts off with foot
ball drawing over 100000 people in

involved call upon the leading stars
