Rose Bowl Prestige at
Stake for Trojans
By RALPH JORDAN

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 3 U.N.S.).
Rose Bowl prestige versus a ma.
tional championship.
This was the issue today as,
Southern California and NotreI
Dame were to come to grips I'M
the Los Angeles Coliseum beforel
an estimated capacity crowd Of
101, 1,516 football fans.
The Trojans. who will meet
Duke in the Rose Bowl on January
2, were faced with the responsi4
bility of preserving the prestige Of
this contest by scoring a victory. ,,
8-TO-5 FAVORITES
The united and undefeated
Irish, only one game away from a
national championship, were fav-
ored by odds Of 8 to S to attain
their goal at the expense Of Troy.
Elmer Layden, Notre Dame
coach. declared that the Irish
rated Southern California as thel
toughest team on their schedule
He was surprised that such long,
odds prevailed in favor OF his club.
Layden toyed with the idea OF
starting the shock troops" as
he has in some of the other games
this year. The warm weather
made it evident that reserveI
strength would play one Of thel
biggest parts in the battle. and
he was anxious to conserve thel
energy of his gridders.
DUKE SCOUTS ON HAND
Interest in this thirteenth an
nual contest between these titans
of the gridiron reached a fever
pitch, with hotels being jammed
with out-of-town visitors. Among
those here for the game was Mrs.
Knute Rockne, widow Of the late
Notre Dame coach whose last
team defeated Southern California
here in 1880 to clinch the national
crown
In past games. dating back tol
the start of the rivalry in 1926,
Notre Dame has won seven games
to four for the Trojans while one
contest ended in a deadlock.

in S|X-WAY TIE.
FOR Third PLACE.

According to the statistics re
leased by Eastern intercollegiate
Golf League officials, Johnny
Burke, Charles Pattijohn, Billy
Dettweiler and Harvey johnson,
of Georgetown University, finished
in a six-way tie for third place in
the most matches won in the round
robin championship.
Each of the four Georgetown
golfers scored 6 points in the cham
pionship that they barely missed
winning by the margin of one
Princeton team. Oddly enough the
leading scorer of the matches was
Kaye of Pittsburgh with 712 points
and was closely followed by Sou
chak, of Pittsburgh and Richard,
of Princeton, with 61a points
apiece.
Princeton won the Southern di-
visional title and will meet Harvard
Saturday, May 81, at Woodway
Country Club, Stamford, Conn.,,

Georgetown University finished
in second place in the Southern
division, bowling only to Princeton.

clash in the 36-hole intersectional

Each had five victories against
no defeats in their respective Sec
tors.
The Tigers, however. had a
much toug h er time advancing

FellerS, you couldn't blame Goose

He had pip Of a lead off secondl
OF course, if you want to be
hypercritical about the thing, you
can argue that a Teller shouldn't
go sliding into third base when
Angelo Giuliani already is on the
bag, especially when this partic:1-
lar antic leads to the third out Of
the only big inning the Nationals
had all day. Under those condi.
tons 1t was very peculiar play,
particularly for a man who has
been in the big leagues as long
as GoSlin has. But it just goes
to show that you can't teach an
old goose.
Vernon Kennedy went haywire

leading by a score of 13 to 2.

Bucky Harris sent up Goose to hit
in place of Ray PhebuS. Goose
singled, putting Giuliani on Sec

very good about tt all.
EVERYBODY SAFE
Then up came Armada, and he
hit one off Greenberg's right,
Gehringer making the stop and
throw to Kennedy, who fumbled
the ball. That made everybody
safe Glulani reached third. But
Goose made the turn around
second, and seeing no one near
him, lit out for third base.
Go back; go back!" yelled
Clyde Milan, third base coach.
"Slide, Goose; slide" roared the
Tigers on the bench and Goose
slid. It really was the poetry Of
stream line motion.
Piling two men up on third base
Is not the record by a long shot.
There was that day in Brooklyn
when Babe Herman tripled with

also slid into third. There were
three Dodgers on the bag. One
more and they could have had a

the reason that it gives the de.

such as developed Despite the
interference. Rick Terrell com.

should have had the option, as
in football, of declining the pen

in this case was the double play.
