S. C. Eleven Today. Ity Paul Zimmerman (Associated Press Sports Writer) LOS A NOBLES, Dec. 13 V-Vhat-ever the outcome, history will repeat Itself before some 75.000 persons at the Olympic stadium here today. Whether tho University of South ern California, gridstcrs march through Georgia as did General Sher man, or the men of Athens, Ga.. sur mount the "topless towers of Troy." as did the Greets of o!d. history will repeat. Unlike Shernrm, however, who faced virtually no opposition on his famous march. Coach Howard Jones eleven mwt maneuver around, through, or over one of the best foot ball teams ever to Invade the Pacific coast from the southland. And on the other hand. Coach Harry Mehre's Athenian Bulldogs will enjoy no such mount as the wooden horse In their attempt to scale Trey's walls, for Southern Cali fornia's Trojans have claimed it as their own since their rise In the foctball firmament. Trojans Hate Power The game promises to be historic irpetition in the grid game's most modern form. The towering Trojans have weight and power in their be half, the Geonttans are possessors of speed and surprises of the first water. Two All-Americans may be the Hector or the Achilles for their team. For the Trojans It is Ernie Pinck ert, a great blocking halfback, who as an Interference runner has fcru?hcd aside the opposition, for his baa earners with marked regularity. On the defence he has backed up the line and made well directed passes futile gestures. For the Georgians it ts Vsrnon (Catfish) Smith, end, a great pass received, an expert at turning back plays on his aide of the ha and fast under punts. Cieorsbi Liars To Paxs Both will be riven severe teats. The Southern gentlemen like noth-pvrr "ntng to ao wttn. but ing better than to pass, and would this TwnS'' Orxui ts not far behind like nothinff belter than to flip111- Sysonby was quicker on the a long one over Piackerta head lor a touchdown. Southern California wcuid h happy to turn on the power over Smith for many yards. j Kxccpt for the one defeat of the year by St. Miry s whteh was accom plished by two lcg passes for touch down, the Trojans' defense against an aerial game has been sufficient. But the fact remains that probably no team Southern California has met this season present such a de termined passing attack: as Georgia. BATTALINO IS WINNER OYER EX-CHAMPION NEW YORK.

Barter l (Associated Press Sports Writer) NEW YORK. Dec 12 (yPj The 32nd j clash of Army and Navy ia the j Yankee Stadium today furnished the j cast with a climactic finish for on r of the most interesting football sea- ; sons in recent years. Athletic relations severed four j years ago on tho question of ellglbil j Ity rules, the service academies for me second year in a row, were ; matched in the Interests of charity. A crowd of not less than 75.000 was forecast for the game with gross receipts of about S400.000. Of this ' about $350,000 was to go to unsm- i ploymeht relief agencies. The bal ance was to be used to cover ex penses. DICE-THROWERS COMPETE OH INN ELL, la..

Gould (Associated Press Sports Editor) ' Branch Rickey doesn't hold any fancy titles, neither does his salary come anywhere near matching those of Commissioner Land is or Babe Ruth, bui he has again demonstrated his capacity as one of baseball's most ex traordinary executives by leading1 the minor leagues of the country through a program of almost complete ' reor ganization. Doctor" Rickey a long time ago diagnosed baseball's Ills, especially as they applied to Uie minors. With the support of Sam Breadon. president and chief stockholder of the, St. Louis Cardinals, he has built up the chain store business to a profitable basis. Rickey's methods. It now seems cer tain, will be widely adopted in the attempt to revive the game's outposts and sources of major league material. The chain-store system, or what ever It may be called, no longer Is under fire. The New York Yankees. In buying the Newark club, have taken a step toward adopting it and It seems certain the support of other major leagues will be exteended In the minor league field far beyond anything that has existed before. Challenge' (o Tweety Grand Twenty Grand's rating among the super-bones for- ability to go the route at least, seems, assured, but the star of the Greentree Stable had one superior at all-around perform ance, in the opinion of Marshall Lil ley. noted exercise boy and now as- i5istArit trainer of the Whitney racing jeetamisnment. i .

Party for the Children We must squeeze in time for a children's party in seme portion of this busy holiday season, for there ts no merrier happening for all of us. Little folks may be bored to death to have to be on hand when grownups give a party for grown ups, but where In all the land Is there a grownup who is anything but high ly entertained when permitted to disport himself or watch the little folks carrying through their enter tainment program at a children's party? The success of the children's par ty depends upon three things: first, there must be a decorated tree: sec ond, there must be a Santa Claus; and third, there must be a gift for everyone, no matter how tiny it may be. It Is usually a better plan to set the table for a children's party than to attempt to serve very little folks any other way..
