Is Just Matter BeWeen Coast, Big Nine Teams
 Other Sport Dope

Now that the tradition and dollar rich Rose Bowl is strictly a Pacific coast conference Big Nine closed shCp, the big question is what post gG ason attraction will lure the Army, A group of Portland sports men have announced plans for in- viting the powerful West l oint squad to Portland for a New Years day go with Oregon State College But it looks as though their move ment is doomed for failure before it starts OSC officials say such a game is highly unfeasiele because the PCC rules iol bids any confer ence team from playing ill a Bowl game the same day the Rose Bowl contest is staged
 A statement on Army'S Bowl pol lcy may be issued today at the Uni.ed States Military Academy West Point graduate manager of Athletics, Gel. Riff Jones, disclosed that the Academys Athletic Board has been called into session, and in answer to NeWman's questions con- corning the possibility of Army ac- cepting a Bowl bid. now that the Rose Bowl has become a closed cooperation between the Pacific coast and Western conferences Jones said statement might" be issued today
 There have been widespread ru- ncrs that Army already has rel ceived bid from the Sugar Bowl But Sugar Bowl President Sam Corenswet said at New Orleans that the Sugar Bowl match hasn't been made and we won't be prepared to say anything about it unsil the season is over" The Sugar Bowl head said all leading teams are un- Ger consideration
 The failure of the Pacific coast and Western conferences to hold off their Rose Bowl agreement for one more year so that Armys mighty cadets could be invited to Pasa- dena this coming New Years day has met bitter criticism from Les Angeles sports writers. But by and large Western writers have reacted with resigned acceptance or out right approval of the pact.
 California will have a Little Rosa Bowl game at Pasadena December 7th. The principals will be Texas undefeated, united Kilgore Junior College. The Pacific coast will be represented by Compton Junior College of California
 There will be a Bowl game to- night at Slaton, Texas-and quite q tussle is promised The game known as the Powder Bowl contest will pit Slaton High Schools Junior girls against the Senior girls.

 A glance at the players named is ample assurance that Producer Wallis has turned out another quail ity production. At the directiorial helm was veteran director William Dieterle, who has reputedly done a very fine job. The story, adapated for the screen by Avn Rand, author of The Fountainhead" is, preview- CTS say, one of the strangest, most compelling love stories ever filmed. It is motivated by a collection of love letters written by one mar over another's signature.

dynamic, biustery Mcoraw asked the i6-year-old Ott if he ever had played the outfield.
 Sure when I was Q kid" was Mels urbane answer.
 No, Mel isn't a boy any more and he knows it. But he's out to make the club his club, and 1t is going to take Q pretty fair sort of otit- fielder to push him onto to dug out boards.
 '"rhe knee that bothered me last year is okay now" he smiled, wip- ing Q grimy hand across his brow. T feel good and I'm out to make the team"
 This, after 20 consecutive years In which Ott has become the great- est little giant of them oil. The leb- pound player-lnanage hes Tod hA club every year in the last decade in the business of hitting homers; was the leading batter three times, including last year, and holds more records than Q juke box. Not 70 bad for boy who on his first trip to New York took the wrong sub- way for the Polo Grounds and eEld- 'ed up in Coney Island.
 Thia is also Mels fifth year @ manager of the team--a role which has brought him much criticism ot late. But he has little to say Apout his detractors.
 Depends on Hurlers
 "r suppose I could do c better fob as manager if I sat on the bench." Ott admitted. "But until Q better right fielder comes along, I'm going to be out there. I'm not favorlng myself, either, and 4 ,,;, . thing I'm second best, wen' HI sit on the bench"
 But he really doesn't think so. And there's . secretlve glint M those brown eyes as he talks apouS his clubs le40 chances.
 "We'ye got plenty of power 70 hit those" he said pointing at SnS naim- lined fences surrounding Ml- ami Field. "We1l give these other pitchers plenty of trouble witn sucn men as Johnny Mize, 9aDe xouny, walker Cooper and Mickey WlteK,.:
 To that you can add Ott, hir1se1' and numbering Ernie Lomparal' who will be available for pincn; hitting duty. That makes 2 ESal ,nurderers', row for the erstwnile one.run National League.
 s'Everything depends, of couEse' on our pitching" Mel sobered. "1us' if 1t comes through as ! expScs' wA will do oil right this season."
 The palms seemed 70 noo tn asfeernent with the ST-yeat"oio ''bcy" from the Bayous.

Fomous Boston MoFot thon Of

Boston, March 2-(Up)-For the first time in It's 60th year history tne tamed Boston A. A. marathon VIII not be held this year, 1t was announced officially today.
 Normally the race is held on Pa. triot's Day-Arril loth-,but that also is Good Friday. Officials of the Boston Athletic Association said 1t . would Do impossible to hold 1t on
 Officials said that it was impos- sible to stage the 2o-mIle se6-yard run on Saturday, the following day. because Q Boston UniveriSty build- ing where the runners finish would be in use.
 Because of the many obstacles In our way we have decided that thare VIII be no marathon this year." said Walter Brown, O Boston A. A. A, official and president of the Boston Garden.
 Outstanding in Sports
 We've never missed 1t before but We've finally decided that this year we must pass 1t up."
 As sporting events 60 the Patriots Day classic is probably one of the outstanding sporting events. Ger tainly 1t is the grandfather of all pavement pounding runs.
 Through three wars and two major depressions. hundreds of bunions enthusiasts have gathered annually to test their stamina on the Hopkinton highways and the Newton Hills.
 First run in 1897, the race from Hopktnton to Boston normally is watched by more than 500, 900 spec tators.
 Perhaps the most illustrious com- petitor in the race as Clarence F. De Mar who first plodded over the course in 1910 and continued to run in 25 fields. He won the nraakhon seven timeS-the last time in 1880.
 Absent Last Year
 De Mar was 4l when he last crossed the finish line a winner. He was absent last year because of pressure of work" but during the past few months has been running from his work in Boston to his home in surbruban Reading and repusedly had planned to start again this year.
 Model for the Boston grind was the famed run by Miltiades over the plains of Marathon in the days when Greece was great. Each year the winner of the Boston race was crowned with wreath of laurel sent to Boston from Greece.
 Fitttngly - last year, ex-soldier Johnny Kelley of West Acton cap. tured the grind on the 10th ami. versary of his original victory.

 High the basketball game played
 with Turtellotte High Friday after noon In the playdown's in the Glass CD tournament held at Weaver High gym, Hartford. ThomaSton got on to poor start in the first quar-
 ter and were behind 14-4 but Big Eddie Tycenski and company finally got started and the score was 22 all at the half. The locals held their opponents to three foul shots in the third stanza and were leading going into the final frame, losing out by the narrow margin of three points at the final whistle. Thomaston played a marvellous game, and though they were listed by Turtel- lotte as easy picking. gave the down Easters great battle as well as nightmare in trying to keep their great record of IS straight wins un- sullie6. All the local cagers played great ball and deserve the highest amount of credit for the very fine exhibition they gave.
 4 number of spectators from sure rounding towns were amazed at the clever pass work and ball handling of the locals. Coach Norman Foger- guist who has done a great job with 3 green team, deserves all the praise and credit that can be showered ups pm him, This is the first tournament h which the local high school team has participated in, in seven years and local fans gre Ratlsised that Ihey gave Q wonderful exhibition.

Champ Stops NcAIIister, 2
nv JACK CUDDY

New York, March 2s-(UP)---Wee Willie Pep was eager today !oE . fieht with Sal Dartolo to decide their dispute over the world featn- erweirht chanlpionship, after knock ing out Bartolo's substitute-NegTo, Jimmy McAllister-in the secono round with a right hook 70 the sclar-plexuS.
 Pen recognized as feather champ bv New york and affiliated states, belted out McAllister of Baltimore at 2:44 of the second round last night before 1a,0l4 fans ct Madison Square Garden.
 The knockout climaxed Q furious exchange that concluded with Mc- Allisters straight right to Pops forehead sending the cat-hke cham pion bouncing back two feet. Be" fore McAllisteg could unleash q following left, Pep sprang in with left hook to the chin that staggered the Negro and brought his arms up. In a split-second Pep smashed Q right hook into the pit of McAl- listers stomach.
 McAllister buckled and fell writh- ing to the canvas in Peps corner. His body was half under the ring ropes as Referee Johnny Burns counted him out.
 No title was at stake as the cham pion from Hartford, Conn, regis- tered his 03d victory in eS pro- fessional bouts. And the scrap was scheduled for only ten rounds, iIl- stead of the IS originally planned when Pep was matched for a title clarifying tilt with Bartolo, whom the National Boxing Association recognizes as featherweight king.
 Bartolo of Boston withdrew from the bout a week ago because Of a cold, and McAliister was substituted because he had held Pep to draw at Baltimore on December 13, af-. almost knocking Pep cut.
 McAllister's excellent Baltimore showing against Pep was understood by the fans last night when they saw the broad-shouldered. slender legged Negro win the first round by a wide margin and fight on even terms in the second until he was nailed. McAllister, boxing beauti- fully and hitting solidly. indicated In the first round that he might knock out the champ, although Pep had entered the ring favored at 2-l.

 Hronzed by the Florida sun and dripping precipitation, the muscular fugitive from the managers bench didn't even bother to take time out to observe his natal day. This still was the same eager, determined lad who by-passed the bushes to carry his wares to the late John Mc0raw. And he is just as anxious to see himself today.
 Kicking the bright green Florida turf In the same manner which has worn out the Nrightfleld at the Polo Grounds, Mel admitted that at 37 he no longer was Q youngster. It had Q slightly familiar ring, how- ever, because there are those who wonder if Ott ever did anything but jump from the cradle to the majors.
