(Associated Press Sports Editor)
If Knute Kockne had a rival In
coaching success last year It was Wil
liam Wallace Wade, the Tennesseean
who coached so many brilliant teams
at the University of Alabama before
transferring- his allegiance to Duke
university for 1031.
They coached tho two foremost
undefeated elevens of 1029, but
when I talked with Wade recently
at Durham he unhesitatingly sug
gested that probably his Alabama
team, good as it- was. "would have
been beaten by Notre Dame.'
It would have made a great
ffnm t w cnniri hnv ninvnH ro.
marked Wade, "but I reckon Notre
Dame would have beaten us. My
Alabama line was very Rood, prob
ably as good as any In the country,
but Rockne had more speed and
more power In his backflcld. His
passing, too. probably ' would have
been better than ours. He had won
derful backs In CVarideo, Brill,
Schwartz, . Savoldi and O'Connor.
They were almost Impossible to stop
after being shaken loose byond the
line of scrimmage."
LAST TEAM MASTERPIECE
It seems In' 'a wav eminently fit-
ting that Rock nc's last team was his
masterpiece of offensive football, if j
not the greatest team he ever sentj
into action. Certainly It went I
through a stiffer schedule more im- r
pressively than even his great 1920 :
team, with George Glpp, or the im-j
mortal "Four Horsemen" of 1924.
Its slaughters of Pennsylvania,
Pittsburgh and Southern California,
against whom ' the Fighting Irish
rolled up 126 points, stamped it as
a super-aggregation of football ta -
ent. i
? "Rock," although reluctant to
commit himself, knew it was his
greatest array and, privately, ad- J
knitted It. !
To this observer, it was the All-
America team Itself, In person.
' Strange as it may seem, few foot -
bnu men from tho united States

ber of good pigskin toters that go to j

Hy O. II. Keeler
Bobby Jones, being In the movies,
and on the air. and out of com
petitive golf forever, has evolved an
idea to which he Intends to devote
the remainder of his public golfing
career which, necessarily, must be
restricted to exhibition matches in
the interests of Sweet Charity.
"I intend to ploy exhibition matches
for charity." said Bobby, "whenever
and wherever the opportunity offers,
with this stipulation. I'm going to
ask for 25 per cent of the receipts
to go to a charity trust fund ln At
lanta, Ga., the remainder to go to
tho local charity putting ou the
match.

"This trust fund is to be held un
der my direction, so far as disburse
ments of the principal or Interest
aro concerned, and I hope that ln a
few years it may accumulate to an
amount that Is worth while It's not
going to be doled out piecemeal.

It was on this basis that Bobby

TOI KNKY FOR JONKS
Willlo'm Wrigley, owner of the
Chicago Cubs, who has been put
or open, golf tournament In the
winter at Cntalina Island, has be-
ting on a high priced professional,
come impressed with the lmnor-
tance or more ana oettcr amateur
competitions, ana tnis spring, aoout
the middle of April, he announces
f tho first Bobby Jonea amateur in -
It was a suggestion
I believe, of
Darsie L. Darsie, Los Angeles golf
writer, and will supplant the open
event 01 iormcr seasons,
The trophy for the firsc tourna
ment, at which Bobby himself will
be a spectator, will be a cup; for
future tournaments It will be a
handsome silver statue, twenty
inches tall, of tho retired champion
at the finish of a driving stroke.
This, of course, will be a perpet
ual trophy, kept at the club, with
the winner's name engraved on the
bose each year,, and a smaller replica
in silver awarded to each victor to
keep.
"Competitive golf on the coast,"
Darsie says, "has. . I think, been
swinging rather too strongly to the
professional phase; a most worthy
enterprise, certainly, but likely to
bo too emphatically stressed by the
sports writers and the public, some
times at the expense of the ama
teur side of the game.
"This decision of Mr. Wrigley's
will. I am sure, prove a great en
couragement to the amateurs and
will be the forerunner of other clas-
sic amateur competitions which will
