A fast moving FL Centre Junior
college basgetball team Wednesday
night ended the winning streak Of
Beverly Hills high school by trim
ming the Los Angeles cagers 27-25
in the Ell Centre gymnasium.
Beverly Hills reserves defeated
the El Centre high school quintet,
22-17 in a preliminary game.
Coach r. r. Taylor's basketeers,
who show promise of forming the
strongest cage squad in school his
tory, jumped into a two point lead
at the start of the game and held
their advantage through the first
quarter. The score stood 81 at the
end of the initial period as a result
of the sharpShooting efforts of
Blakely and Robinson.
In the second quarter the jay
Gee defense completely bottled up
the Beverly Hills team and the
Arabs held the L. A. club scoreless.
The j. C. five also failed to score
but not because it didn't have a
chance to chalk up points.
Time and again the iaycees miss
ed set ups under the basket IN
that second period, scores that
would have iced the game.
The Beverly Hills quintet surged
ahead in the third period and held
a 1917 advantage at the end of
the quarter.
The Jaycees evened the count
midway in the fourth period, how
ever, and the score remained knot
ted until the final minutes of play
when he Arabs took an edge they
never relinquished
Blakely, Grassland and Robinson
chalked up decisive points in the
final quarter.
Carr, Galloway and Edwards also
played good ball for the Arabs and
their passing enabled Robinson and
Blakely to grab high point honors
with ten each.
Quail, Elicit and Binns were out
standing for the losers.
The El Centro high school team
showed up well in losing to the
Beverly Hills reserves and only
their inability to hit the basket at
close range thwarted victory.
The passing and floor work of the
Spartans was unquestionably bet
ter than that of the Beverly Fills
team but the coast cagers hit the
basket consistently to score the
triumph.

West Coast
Teams Meat
For Crimson

PASADENA, Cal. Dec. rs tUP)-
For the fifth time in dozen years,
Alabamas crimson football War
riors are heading for the Rose
Bowl, carrying with them the su-
persition that no matter who else
may beat them, a west coast
team can't.
The story of the rise of Alabama,
and the series of sparkling per-
formances that quickly built the
team from Tuscaloosa into a domi-
nant power in the football world,
is a tale in which the superstition
hold a prominent place.
The jinX first was brought out of
the land OF cotton and red clay
hills by an under-rated Tide eleven
in 1926 Alabama was the first
southern team invited here, and
was picked to face Washington,
rugged eleven powered by ALL
America George Wilson.
Wilson lived up to expectations.
His hard charging and flaShy pass
ing ran the Huskies to 1910 lead
in the first half. But Alabama
came out for the third period. took
the ball on its 40, and Pooley HUI
bert almost single-h -handedly rush
ed the line and the ends for a
touchdown. More important, Buck
ner kicked the conversion.
A few minutes later GillS faded
back and threw a 40-yard pass to
a lean. handsome back named John
Mack Brown. Another touchdown.
Again Buckner converted Hardly
had the cheering subsidized and
Brown scampered for third score,
Buckner missed the goal this time,
but the score was 20-l2. Although
Wilson threw final touchdown
pass to Guttermunson, the game
was already won, and ended 20-19.
A year passed and the Tide was
back in Pasadena again this time
tying 7 to 7, one OF the greatest
of all Stanford elevens.
Alabama came back for the third
time in 1881 and for the first time
was installed as a favorite. The
bettors' Judgment was Vindicated
when the crimson regiment BOOM
ed to a 24-0 victory over Washing
ton State with astonishing ease.
The last Alabama westward trip
in 1884, pitted the Tide against
! Stanford. team built on the
piston, legs of booming Bobby
Grayson. Alabama swamped the
