THE Firing Line By PAT FRIZZELL Yessir, it looks like Alabama and Washington for the Rose Bowl. Why Alabama ? Because the Crimson Tide has the best record of any eastern team that will be allowed to make the trip or stands any chance of being invited. A tilt with Tennessess is all that mars it. Tomorrow 'Bama tackles Vander bilt in one of those things which might be an upset. Probably it won’t be. Unless it is, the Tide is in line. Why Washington ? Because the Huskies have the coast conference title all sewed up, providing they can conk Washington State tomor row. The game in Seattle might result in an upset, for the Cougars possess a gentleman named God dard. Washington should win. Washington would rather play the ’Banians than other eligihles, if there are others. The Huskies met Alabama on January 1, 1926, which, if your commentator fig ures accurately, is now eleven years back. On that date the lads from Tuscaloosa edged out the Seattle gang, 20 to 19. They still remember that up north. Fordham and Marquette dropped out of the Rose Bowl pic ture last weekend. Louisiana State hasn’t lost, but the Tigers have been tied, and, for various reasons, Alabama appears much more likely to draw the nod. * * $ All of which brings us to a point. Why so much fanfare about the fuss in the Rose Bowl ? After all, its just another intersectional game, and it decides absolutely nothing. When you face facts, you'll have to admit that the Rose Bowl game is the most overemphasized thing in football. It's a grand classic, but undefeated and untied teams aren't usually the opponents. It's a gold mine for the promoters and competitors and a wonderful topic of discussion for fans. No doubt that's enough, but, nevertheless, importance of the Pasadena plum is much exaggerated. * * Washington and Washington State led the conference parade this fall, and Southern California and UCLA were next best. Thus it is entirely fitting that these teams should suffer most heavily through graduation in the coming year. , They will. Sixty-eight coast conference var sity players are finishing their col legiate careers this season, and around 40 of the 68 are regulars. Washington, the likely 1936 cham pions, loses most of its brightest ■ luminaries.

Anet, who has been giving the veterans a stiff battle for a start ing position, suffered a pulled muscle in Monday night’s scrim mage game when he collided with another player. It is believed that he will be out for at least a week. Greens Trounce Whites Last night Coach Howard Hob son continued to whip his men into shape with a long practice topped off with another scrimmage game of three 20 - minute periods, in which the Greens trounced the Khites, 47-22. The squads were composed of the same players as the night before. The Greens showed a smoother working quintet, with the combin ation of John Lewis and Dave Sil ver, forwards, Laddie Gale, center, and Bill Courtney and Ken Purdy, guards, doing most of the damage. This group is made up of veterans with the exception of Gale, a sophomore. Southern Trip Planned The preseason schedule of games was given out last night by Hob son. The slate as it now stands calls for trips to California during the Christmas holidays. While on their southern swing the Webfoots will meet three of the strongest California quintets on successive nights.
