BROOKINGS HARBOR PILOT, BROOKINGS, OREGON THURSDAY, JANUARY 5, 1950 BOWL GAMES INTEREST FANS rOVER HOLIDAYS | urday, in which the west team | i suffered a humiliating defeat, is indicative of the “de-emphasis” plan for football in the west. Radio listeners in this area, during that portion of the game when power was available for the listening, were anything but pleased at the way Ohio State ron-handled the Golden Bears ci University oa California, to r’ crs'' a defeat by California on January 1, 1921, the first meet ’rr cf tho two teams in the Rose L.’M. MARCH OF DIMES Barstow, Calif., o Man Present At Rotary Party, Fri. FIGHT INFANTILE PARALYSIS Dean DeVoe, and Mrs. Devoe, of Barstow, Calif, and his broth er and sister-in-law, of Gold Beach, were guests of the local club, Friday evening at the an nual Christmas party. Other lo cal guests were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Moore, Mr. and Mrs. Bert DeMoss, Mr. and Mrs. Donald Vaughan, Mr. and Mrs. Pete Tierce. After the dinner entertainment was furnished by Bob Perkins, using his radio skit, and by a number of the “Barbershoppers,” who sang as a group and as quartets. California started off like it was going to trample Ohio into the turf at the Bose Bowl, with an apparent safe 7-0 lead at the half. However, California had, at that time, spent her power, for the second half was definitely Ohio State. California lost her golden opportunity to win in the early moments of the fourth quarter, only to be held for downs , 26 yards out. Ohio’s interception of California passes spelled the defeat, for the second time of the Golden Bears in Rose Bowl attempts in two years. Puritanical manipulation of the Pacific Coast conference in the past decade has been the only reason for this decline in western football, which, tor the three previous ones, dominated the gridiron of the United States.
