Santa Clara probably will prac-

BEARS FAVORED
IN EARLY BOOKS
OVER ALABAMA

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 2.-The
boys of the betting fraternity gath
cred in the back room here today,
took out their future book, and
entered the following odds on the
bowl classics:
California, 2 to / over Alabama,
at PaSadena''s Rose Bowl.
Santa Clara and Louisiana State
even money at New Orleans Su-
gar Bowl.
It is not the habit of coaches to
comment on gambling odds even
though they must be aware that
alumni are accustomed to wager
a few nickels on alma matters foot
ball heroes.
However, If Coach Stub Allison
Of California we're in a comment
ing mood he probably would reiter-
ate his previous statement that
Alabama is most worthy oppo-
nent," adding he is somewhat mys-
titled by what method the boys in
the back rooms arrive at odds.
MAY BE INFLUENCED
Perhaps they were influenced by
thhe fact Alabama skinned
through three games, barely exc.
ing out q victory.
Coach Allison would construe
such victories as showing that the
Crimson Tide has plenty of never
saw die'' spirit,
But Allison wasn't commenting
today, so such guess is strictly
unofficial.
And Coach Buck Shaw Of Santa
Clara, still suffering a heavy at

demonstrated the necessity of not only
tightening the laws in some respects,
but also hberalizing them in others,
he declared.
Railroads do not fail because of the
size of their debts, for good roads usu-
ally have much greater proportion
of debt per mile than poor roads, he
said in supporting his views. Debt
and capital structure are not Satisfac-
tory for determining the soundnesS OF
the position of railroads. The old
legal tests in many States have proved
useless. The legal test that roads
should earn per cent cash dividends
should be reduced to 2l2 per cent,
while the legal test that fixed charges
be earned Is times should be increased
to 18 times. AS general rule, the
operating ratio, current ratio and
maintenance ratio have become use
less in judging bond soundness, he
asserted.
President Tom K. Smith of the
American Bankers Association told
the bankers there will be nothing
static about the trust business in the
days ahead. Confidence in the banks
is being restored" he added, and the
same is true of the trust business. In
his talk he suggested that the word
'trust" in banks title be restricted
to banks having active trust depart
ments, believing this would avoid con-
siderable confusion.

Calnan started his banking career in

Savings Bank, now the Liberty Ma

Elected vice president following the
death of President George o. Watson
in 1881, when E. j. McQuade became
president, he held that position until
placed in charge of the bank a year
