MEMORIAL COLISEUM, Los
Angeles, Dec. 10 (AT) South
ern California outplayed Notre
Dame for three periods and out-
! smarted me visitors an me way
! to win the annual football battle
between the Trojans and Ram
blers 13 to 0. A record crowd of
100,000 saw the home team
win its 19th straight game and
move a step closer to a second
national championship in two
years.
The crowd set a new atten
dance mark for football games
this season In the nation and
was the biggest assembly ever
to witness a game in Los An
geles. The record crowd saw a
record performance. The Tro
jans made history for their seven
years football war with Notre
Dame for this was the first time
the Howard Jones team has won
twice in suc;esaive seasons from
Its rival. Notre Dame, however,
continued to hold a one game
margin for the series, four to
three.
Southern California rode to
victory on the flying feet of Ir
vine "Cotton" Warburton, a
pint sized quarterback, a sensa
tional catch of a forward pass
by Bob McNeish and a series of
well placed quick kick.
Warburton Points
Trojans to Victory
Warburton, little lut fast,
started his team in the road to
the first score in the second
period by returning a Notre
Dame punt 39 yard to the visi
tors' 44 yard lire. The little fel
low dashed to the 30 yard lice
on the next play. Notre Dame
called a halt through the line
then, but Homer ilriffith on
fourth down, with the ball on
the 31 yard line tossed a pass to
McNeish who made a sensational
catch over his head two yards
from the goal line and stepped
over. A quick kick in the third
period was fumbled by Chuck
Jaskwhich, Bob Erskine recover
ing for the Trojans on Notre
Dame's 26 yard line. Southern
California moved on to a second
touchdown by successive running
plays.
The home team used the quick
kick to advantage, throughout
the game, booting the ball over
the head of the Notre Dame
safety men and three times
grounding the ball inside the
visitors' five yard line. Once the
ball game to rest less than a
yard from the roal Hue.
Notre Dames offense failed to
function during the first three
periods but came to life with a
bang In the closing quarter, when
it was too late.
Notre Dame was not in
" Southern California territory
during the first period, assum
ing the role of invader for the
first time in the second period
when the elusive Mik Koken
sidestepped h's way to the 43
yard line. The visitors did not
get past the center of the field
again until the final penoa. At
the outset. Jaskwhich. finding
no a.iilahle pass receiver, ran
with the ball and v.-as .brought
down on S. C.'s 4 9 ard l!n.
Late Passing Attack
Has Troy (inessinjc
A few miunU-; later Not.e
Dame uncovered a pa?inK attack
which for a whHe hod the Tro
jans runnir.or Pioind in circles.
After Smith mis-rd a field goal
from the 4 0 yard Hue the visi
tors took the bail on their own
20 yard line and Itay Branchcnu
pased to Hugh IJeVoe on Notre
Dame's 48 rard lin. Lukats
passed to (leovce Melinkovich on
Southern California'.-: 41 and the
sam com 'inat 'n-n worked the
ball to tho :', yard line. Laurie
Vejar, a Hoi';;, wood boy, then
shot one to Sheekrtski on the
five yard line. The drive was
stopped w'iK'ii (iviffith intercepted
a pass on his ow.i nine yard line.
The Trojans kicked out but
Notre Damo was riKht back
knocking at the door with an
other long pass from Lukats to
Melinkovich, winding up on the
13 yard line. An incomplete pass
over the goal line foiled this, the 1
last effort of the South Bend j
contingent.
Notri Dame gained 131 yards
on seven com pitted passes from
a total of 17 attempted. Southern
California completed only one
pass of eight but this toss was
good for a touchdown.
The visitors outgained the
home team and scored twice a3
many first downs but the Ram
blers carried the ball more. No
tre Dame never kicked on third
down while Southern California
consistently p'inted when two
plays had failed to negotiate a
first down.

The game was a rough, tough
affair, marked by hard line play.
Larry Stevens, Southern Cali
fornia guard, and Steve Banas,
rttnre uame ruiiback, were
ejected from the game, just be
fore it was completed, for hit-

"BULLDOG"
'Sneakers' Aid Husky Eleven
To Top West Seattle Club
66 to 0 on Frozen Gridiron
SEATTLE. Dec. 10. AP)
Borrowing basketball shoes from
their brother hoopster3. football
players of the University of Wash
ington rolled up a track meet
score against the West Seattle
Athletic club, winning 66 to 0 in
a charity game on a frozen field
in the Washington stadium today.
Outsmarting their rivals by don
ning tennis shoes, the Washing
ton Huskies traveled over the hard
ground like the icy wind that
chilled the 10,000 spectators and
chalked up ail 10 touchdowns in
the first harf while the Yellow
jackets, coached by Bob Mathews,
were skidding and falling on their
cleats like ice-skating beginners.
It was a different story in the
second half, however, when West
Seattle faced Washington on even
terms after a rush call for rubber
shoes. The clubmen, the niaioritv
0f wnom are former Washington
irL fim VIC
Aut it just goes to show that
"you neter can tell'' In foot
ball when a couple of teams
which are pretty evenly match
ed ct together; whether they
are team without an apparent
weakness, sadi as those which
poumied a-h other In the Los
Angeles Coliseum yesterday, or
a couple of samllot pickup out
fits. O
As we saw it, these were tho
factors which won for Southern
California:
1. Thoso quick kicks which
came when nobody was back to
receive them, and which account
ed for yards and yards.
2. Two breaks, consisting of
Warburton's punt return (giving
the boy all due credit but still
ailing it a break) and the recov
ery of a hobbled punt, which was
bobbled, by the way, in an at-
enipt to get back and stop one of
those quick kicks.)
3. Howard Jones' genius which
evolved the pass play which
scored that first touchdown; a
scoring" play which crossed up
the secondary defense. It was a
fourth-down pass but that was no
great matter of strategy, consid
ering the position.
4. The Trojans' punch which
carried the ball 26 yards to score
after getting the second break.
The big surprise, to us, was that
Griffith's final plunge from the
two-yard line succeeded. They
seldom do. But the radio didn't
describe it; maybe Hemer pulled
something else out of the scor
ing play' book.
Aside from the breaks, it
was the qnhk kick that turned
the trick. Otherwise we figure

and Gonzaga stars, held the Husky
third-stringers scoreless In the last
two periods.
The first half was nothing short
of comedy with the Yellowjackets
unable to move on the icy surface.
West Seattle played more of a
"touch" football game in the first
two periods, for about all they
could do was touch the big Wash
ington backs as they scampered
for three scores in the opening
quarter and seven more in the sec
ond. In an effdrt to stop the rout,
the clubmen removed their shoes
and played in their stocking feet
In the second period but this stunt
proved even worse.
West Seattle threatened only
once when it passed to Washing
ton's 15-yard line in the last per
iod hut the rfarch was stopped
when an aerial over the goal line
was knocked down.
the Irish were just as good, but
we'll never know whether, giv
en the same breaks, they w ould
have been able to score.
O
With Robin Reed back in the
vicinity, the question naturally
arises, is he gunning for a title
match with Henry Jones, hoping
to regain that world welterweight
wrestling belt, and will he get it
that is, the match?
Answer to the first part of
the question Is, "don't be silly."
Answer to the second part, we
are informed by the secretary
of the Salem Boxing and Wres
tling commission, depends on
negotiations which are already
under way. Jones, now the
champion, is holding oat for
the same guarantee which was
given Reed when he was cham
pion, $500.
O
That would seem eminently
fair, except that the commission
is not convinced the traffic will
bear it, and while the commis
sion is in the business largely for
us health, it doesn't like to see
health come too high. We under
stand the commission is making
a counter proposal. Then we shall
see.

TUESDAY CARD
Boston Bulldog Mallory to
Meet Jack Mitchell of
Gotham, Announced
Although the main event will
feature Henry Jones, who has
been wrestling in Salem at inter
vals ever since this sport was re
vived here overt hree years ago,
and Bobby Novak, who has be
come a familiar figure' this sea
son, the fans' reputed craving
for "new blood" will be assuaged
in the ene-hour bout which pre
ceeds this popular rematch.
"Bulldog" Mallory from Bos
ton, a tough middleweight who
can also make the welterweight
requirements and may later clash
with some of the leaders in that j
division who are In circulation
around the northwest, will make
his bow Tuesday Bight in the
first contest of the evening,
meeting Jack Mitchell of New
York.
It was Mitchell who romped
all over Jones a couple of weeks
ago for one round, then was
taken ill and fell an easy victim
to the strawberry grower. The
fans didn't suspect it right away,
but Mitchell was a sick man be
fore he ever entered the ring;
it didn't show up until after the
first fall, but persons who were
in the dressing room are not
entertaining any doubts as to
his illness. That may have been
due to the change in climate, as
he had just come here from
Gotham.
Mitchell has regained top con
dition, and the fans who saw him
la that first round are confi
dent that he will show plenty of
stuff against Mallory. Mitchell
liminaries to the behemoths in
j Madison Square Garden.
Not much is known here of
Mallory. except that the a'dvance
notlcen mark him as one of the
tough ones, and he 1 -s an ambi
tion to show enough stuff to en
title him to a match with Henry
Jones or Robin ReM in the
near future.

Major league baseball magnates,
most of them singing the "box of

week to ponder what they can do
as & body to cut down expenses,
strengthen weak clubs and bring
the customers back to the parks.
The National league will open
the three-day session with their

American league will meet Wed
nesday and the joint session of
the two bodies will be held Thurs
day. Except for a few clubs, such as
the New York Yankees, Boston
Braves, Brooklyn Dodgers and
Chicago Cubs, baseball did not do
so well at the gate in 1932 and
further economies must be made
the coming season.

make the 23-player limit effective

saving a month's salary on several

Among other suggestions from
club owners are to further trim
salaries, shorten the training seas
on, ban radio, encourage field days

an
ers.
The question of reduction of
salaries holds much dynamite, the
magnates feel, as the players took
cuts right down the line from
Babe Ruth to the bat boy laat year
and any effort to further reduce
salaries may bring on a wholesale
holdout war. It appears probable
each owner will be left to settle
that problem.
One suggestion almost sire to

34 recommendations would be

udget to assure legislators that
it will be cut to the bone.
Indeed there is every likelihood
that the blood-in-the-eye crown
that comes to Salem next month
to cut expenses under the dome.
will find a budget so urasucauy
trimmed the taxcutteis will quick- ,
ly be converted into tax-defenders
nd proponents or a mguer oua-
get.
For example: Hanzen saia last
week he would recommend abol
ition of 1308,000 continuing ap-
DroDriatioES for higher education.
These have gone principally for
agricultural experiment work ana
to match federal and county mon
eys for county agent activities.
Already farmers who nave crieo.
loudest for tax-reduction are de
claring this cut is made in the
wrong place.
No Direct Tax
On Extension Work
Hanxen's plan, be it known,
was not to bring loiai aoonuuu ui
these functions but rather to
make it Imperative that funds for
their support come from the 14,
500,000 mll'.age income provided
biennially for higher education.
Hanzen thought that striking out
the continuing appropriations
would enforce economy in higher
education sufficient to allow some
of the matched-appropriat;on ac
tivities to remain.
For the next four weeks every
merchant of the Btate, every con
sumer who cares a whit about
state affairs and taxation, every
county court harassed by lak of
funds, every banker witn tiozen
county, city and district sec urities
in his portfolio, la going to be
studying what the special session
should do. All of these masses are
affected.
Whatever the special session
does or does not do, it will open
wounds and create injustices. Ev
idently Governor Meier wishes to
avoid the full responsibility for
resulting bad feelings; he has
outlined the state's problem, he
has shown his willingness to con
vene the machinery to work out a
more equitable situation, but the
final decision must rest with the
90 duly elected representatives ef
the people, who if they are wise,
will do much studying and listen
ing and not too much talking, in
the forthcoming four weeks of
decision on tax matters of vital
importance to every citisen In the

EMPLOYMENT DATA
FACES LEGISLATURE
Unemployment relief apparent
ly will be included among the
large number of knotty problems
to be considered by the 1933 leg
islature when it convenes hire
January 9.
This was indicated Saturday
when Governor Meier received a
letter from R. W. Wilcox of Port
land, chairman of the state relief
committer, urging legislative as
sistance in combatting the unem
ployed problem. The letter point
ed out that the relief campaign is
a state function and should be so
considered by the legislature.
"The state relief committee has
given careful consideration to
ways and means of meeting the
unemployment situation," the let
ter read. "A survey of the state is
now in progress and data soon
will be available showing "-hat
the count'es are doing to combat
their own problems. The rpport of
the committee also will indicate
how long the available funds will
last, and tho agqresate require
ments for the year 1933.
It is too much to hope that the
state can carry the entire bur
den, and we anticipate the neces
sity of further appeals to the Re
construction Finance corporation.
These appeals will not be made
until the state has exhausted Itr
resources."
