Sport Writers Feud Over
Rose Bowl Contest Flares

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan 5 CUP)-
The sports writer's feud over the
Rose Bowl game continued today.
and editors in this territory were
not amused by post-seaSOn efforts
Of New York correspondents TO get
the last word in the argument con-
cerning University California s
choice of Alabama in preference to
Pittsburgh or Fordham.
This was the situation from the
standpoint of San Francisco writer's:
!. The Californias football
players wanted Pittsburgh for an
opponent, and Pittsburgh was in
i vited. For three days the PantherS
held a Rose Bowl invitation but
finally turned it down along with
other Dost-season invitations.
?. That Alabama was invited
because the honest opinion at
Berkeley was that the Tide had a
better team than Fordham: that
Alabama's competition on the
whole was tougher and keener

ing S. Mary's 60 after California
walloped the Gaels 30-7.
3. That certain New York sports
writers were peeved because they
didn't get a chance to spend New
Years at Pasadena.
Most sports observers on the
coast-including Los Angeles writ
ers-eXpressed the opinion that
California, in beating Alabama.
really did have a wonder team.
VIII Connolly, writing for the
San Francisco Chronicle, said:

would have had an easier time with
Fordham than with the resource
ful Alabama. which year in and
year out completes in a more stren-
uous conference than Fordham
does. Alabama Poly OF Auburn. no

The league race will be closer

opinion of most coaches.
In the c division HoltVille, El
Centro, Brawley and Calipatria will
fight for the top spot All have
stronger teams than last season and
will collect larger scores if not a
larger number OF victories.
A little polish for the SpartanS

title in four years.
Amateur fighting took a layoff
in Imperial Valley this week until
AAU licenses can be straightened
out
The sport will start the year 1888
with a clean slate Nearly all pro-
fessional fighters have been barred
by the AAU and more are doomed
to fall as soon as the officials can
conclude proof.
Despite criticism from the short
er sighted matchmakers Thomas is
pushing his cleanup campaign. No
fighter who has fought profession
ally has right to battle the simon
pureS'', Cox said, and as long as
am in charge that rule will be
closely observed
Some fighters. Who had fought
only one pro fight in order to raise
bit OF money, are hurt by the
ruling, but there IS only one place
to draw the line and those must
suffer to keep the amateur ranks
free of those pros who have slipped
below the par of the professional
fighters, and who are seeking vic
tories among the young amateurs.
