BOB M'NELLIS WINS VARSITY

Blue, White Open Against Alumni Tomorrow at
 at WiIby Gym

Crosby high opens It's basketball season sChristmas night at the Wilby gym, in the annual game with the Alumni Although most of the high schools have already been playing for several weeks, 1t has been the custom ct Crosby to open Christmas night. William Derwin, recreational director of the park department, and himself an alumnus of Crosby, has charge of the Alumni squad, and will undoubtedly put Q team on the floor, which while lacking in team play will more than make up in in- dividual brilliance. Just what team Bill hes lined up Is something of 0 mystery but with e wealth of re- cent Crosby stars still continuing to play the game In college, Bills prob- lem will not be to obtain ball play CTS but to narrow down his squad to o size that will make 1t possible for him to handle. Coach Schofield has requested that the strongest possible combine be selected, with instructions to play ball all the way. The Crosby coach wants Q real con. test 50 that he may see how his own team works under pressure.
 The Crosby team this year B an unknown quantity. With only Cap- tain Jimmie Day of last years team surviving, only the passage of time will tell what Is to be expected this season. A large squad has been working out for the past few weeks and against several amateur teams in town practice games have been played in which the Crosby team looked very good. Of the fiewcon. CTS, "Pinkie," Hoods, Bob" McNellis, and French have been showing ex- cellent form, and all three should see plenty Of service this year. Brady. who played some at center last year is also playing good bell, as is "Tiger" Lyons, Vic Verbyla and Pete Mcsherry. From this group, Coach schoheld will un. do,ibtedly fashion q team which should be able to hold It's own In Valley league competition this year. There is plenty of height on the team, and III Spltc or tnc new rue eliminating the center jump. height Is still an asset in basketball.
 A preliminary game between the Crosby Junior Varsity and the Co' lumbian squires will open the festiv. tiles. The preliminary A scheduled for 7:l5.
 Dancing will follow the game.

Not that the prOtos- sloMal SealpeFs would nos welcome d chance t0 handle tho prlaed tickets, But they don't have tho chance, Under regulations the alumni of the coast team playing in the Rose Bowl arc allowed to buy the majority of the tickets, That these alma mater worShlppeFs, who never miss . chance to lean on the plano and sing "llail Hall t0 Old California" are selling their seats to any and sNndry who want them Was brought into the open yesterday hv an announcement from the Cal lfornina graduate managers otiaoe, This gentleman said that any alVMNs or student found soAlplng his tickets would he blaok-llsted Tor life from purchase privilege.
 The thought of Q student Selling his ticket is not very pleasing, It N generally accepted belief that a college football team plays for the glory Of It's college, which means for the individual student, If I were Q tackle, out there rlSkihg my life and limb in combat against the foe, lt wouldn't make me very happy as I threw q block on Q 100 pound halfhaek, to picture some SneroenAxy sophomore, for whom I was sup posed to be playing, listening to tho game over Q radio and counting the money he had made on the sale oE his ticket
 However, the sale of student sec ton tickets has Its amusing side. Out here, you know, the cheering sections 70 in very heavily for card stunts.
