o NO DE-EMPHASIS o PCC Will Continue Rose Bowl Games? New Pact With Big Ten Proposed i L 6 o SPORTS V ; Indian Grapplers O fainter District The Newt-Review, Roseburg, Ore. Friday, Fb. SAN FRANCISCO U -The Pacific Coast conference effec tively killed talk about de-empha. i of athletics by voting to con tinue with the annual Hose Bowl football classic. The decision of the faculty rep resentative! of the nine Pt'C members to so ahead with the 31-year-old daddy of all the bowls was unanimous. Preceding it were rumors that the PCC college presidents had determined to take the prcssur off inlrcollgiate athletics and that the lose Bowl would be first to go. But the presidents talked it over and passed the decision to the fac ulty representatives. The decision was announced at the end of yesterday's meetings by Prof. II. P. Everest of the University of Washington, chair man of the faculty representa tives 'press committee. New Agrttmtnt With Big Tan Everest also announced that the conference would seek I new Rose Bowl agreement with the Big Ti n. It was reported that PCC wants each conference to pick its bowl team on the same basis. Under the five-year pact just expired, the PCC annually sent its champion to five straight riefcats whil" the Big Ten prohibited any of Its members going to ihe bowl oilcner than every third year. Of "increasing pressure on in tercollegiate athletics" including postseason games, Kveresl said: "While the conference recogmzd that postseason games do present problems, its opinion is that in view of existing circumstances sur rounding the competition in the Hose Bowl, that conference would be not justified in discon tinuing its participation in the Rose Bowl. For discussion today is the pos sible return of a World War II rule which would per mil freshman par ticipation in varsify athletics. Not a scheduled subject, but cer tain to be talked over, is the bas ketball gambling turmoil which de veloped at Madison Square Garden. There have been reports that the faculty men would pull PCC teams out of garden participation, that basketball would be returned to the campuses, leaving out even the San Francisco Cow Palace. But no faculty man has said anything to indicate what may hap pen. The coast conference's five-year contract with the Tournament of Hoses association of Pasadena ex pires January 1.
