UNIT SYSTEM AND FAILURE
 TO FIELD BEST POSSIBLE
 TEAM COSTS TROY TITLE

X Failure of Southern California to stage 0 complete comeback this season, win the Pacific Coast Conference championship, and ap- pear in the Rose Bowl on New Years Day can in large meas ure be traced to Howard Jones faith in the unit system.
 Using two separate combina- tons, Southern California at no time fielded It's strongest avail able offensive force. Schooled observers agree that the pick of the party would have been the equal of any outfit in the land.
 Jones is expected to depart from the unit idea following his clubs defeats by California and Washington.
 Three injuries broke up South ern California's senior combina- ton in the Washington game, in which the Huskies were without Byron Haines. The most danger ous runner on the western slope was on the 8 defines with wrenched knee.

Unit System Costs Trojans Title
Huskles Polished Team
 Using Notre Dame Style

Jimmy Phelan has the finest backfleid set-up in the far west. Three fast-running backs are very good ct throwing and receiving passes. Two capable fullbacks are tremendous factors on the attack and keep the defense frightened up. Tn addition to being the foremost kicker on the coast, Quarterback Logg is Q superlative blocker and pass receiver.
 Washington is considered one of the more polished teams employing the Notre Dame style. It has the most versatile attack on the coast. The Huskies' assortment includes very good tanker plays with many laterals and forwards keeping the defense spread. Reverses, spinners, and line bucking mixed with this keep the defense in turmoil.
 With two of the leading candi- dates for the invitation coached by Notre Dame products--Jjmmy Crowley at Fordham and Frank Thomas at Alabama--the Tourna- ment of Roses battle may have ai, all-South Bend flavor.
 Knute Rockne taught chemistry and assisted Jesse Harper with the Irish varsity during Phelan's play ing days at South Bend. Phelan was the teammate of Charley Bach- man of Michigan State. Jack Meagher of Auburn, and Slip Madigan of Saint Mary's. He cap- tained the 1917 team which intro. duced the immortal George Gipp.
 Phelan was called by Washington in 1880 after enjoying much success nt Purdue.
