COLLEGE COACHES HIT PRO FOOTBALL Pacific Coast . Conference " Mentors Denounce Com "Werciaf enfoficy1 Professional fooJhall la the tar get under flreat the meeting' of the Pacific coast conference at Se attle that strated yesterday and 3nda today. , Growing indication that professional football is mak ing fans disgusted in general with the college game has lead' repre sentatives' of the eight schools re presented in the conference to be lieve the time has come to battle professional ' football.1 Athleticclub football teams are aid,to bear the germs, of profes sionals. They are the "go-be tweens of college Raines and the pro-games. With, this in view, it Understood that Darwin lleis- aest, graduate manager of Wash- ngton uniTerfity; will introduce"a VJan'prbrlding that teams playing n the conference shall not meet .he cjuh teams. . Those leading the battle against f -rofesetonalism claim one of the ?hief charms of the gridiron game s that of the intense spirit man- -.fested "by-the contesting schools. They hold that in professional ;ames this punch is lacking, mak ng football merely a mechanical ipectacle rather than a sanguine jattle. This, they claim, will ventually mean the decline of in terest in college games. It is held, however, that there is little chance of professionalism nvading the Pacific Cbar-t. In the ?ast college g:nnes are crowded to capacity. As a result, thousands ire unable to witness the contests. Ponsequently, as they would rath 3r patronize any football than no ootball, they are willing to see professional contests. But on the coast w"ith its com paratively sparse population there is opportunity for all to witness most of the college games. So professionalism, U is held, is hardl Ifto gain a doting toere. Other questions to face the con Terence will be the retaining of college 'baseball 'in We schedule .?or the coming year and election of officers. H. C.

Tues. , :: windus Playing Medly..Sotgs W Nerer Forget" M HI LB . - - - . HIM OUT, ins hoi s First Squad, Nevers, Stan ford;. Second, Wilson and Washington According to last night's Port land News, Billy Evans, national sport writer, honors two Pacific coast players Wilson of Wash ington and Xevers of Stanford in. naming his all-star grid teams. He puts Red Grange, the greased pig. back at quarter on the first team. Other honors among the 22 men named go to midwest and eastern squads. He says that only two colleges were honored more than once, those two being Dartmouth and Michigan. He had found several applicants for half on the first team, but he decided that a player from the south was the best, so Wilson of Washington went to the second team. He thought Red Grange wasn't quite so good in hte sophomore and junior years a the said he was, but according to Evans no team could be complete without him. He states there was at least eight halfbacks of equal ability, but he made it easier to place them by putting Grange in as quarter. Evans compliments Nevers of Stanford by saying that he does about everything that a fullback should do, and he does it well. Accoramg to Evans it would be hard to improve the line; the backfield has the fleetest open neia runner in Grange, the great est punter in the south in Flour- nnv, and Nevers h the best line piunger in the country just the type of player needed to round out the backfield.
