AUGUSTA. Go.. Dec. 20. (A)
From a perspective of 44 years, Ty
Cobb looked buck on baseball today
and observed the game haa grown
lens attractive.
Friday was the 44th birthday of
I the Georgia Peach, who spent more
than -O years in major league base'
ball. Me celebrated quietly ot home
with his family a custom be has
never varied tince hia marriage in
"To me the game seems to lack a
t-ort of spontaneity now he said.
"The close plays, base running and
other interesting features have been
lessened by the orgy or home run
un ting.
"Hack before the days of the lively
Imll the outfielders played ueurer the
infield and figured in some fast
throws and hairline decision plays.
The present came needs more com-
petition, more clone scores and harder
fought game. The lively bull has
served to eliminate some ot tuese at
tractive points.
Doesn't Draw
"Years ago I remember when
crowded stands greeted a seventh
place club late in September. Kiev
were out to see real baseball with
all the old tricks of the came. Nowa
days oily the leaders and the first
division clubs nlav to full stands.
J y hiH no comment to make on
the draft, question recently discussed
at i ne nuseoaii meetings hut ob
served the elimination of the sticri
fici fly would affect the game very
little.
Cobb is content now to rest and
play. He's getting pleasure aplenty
out of romping around with his fam
ily. Cobb said his negotiations with
the Philadelphia Nationals had been
ended,
"I've been considering other pro
positions but haven't found one yet
iuni sounds good, ne anued.
"The expense end of the game has
advanced fur ahead of the attendance.
The first division teams find the came
profitable but it isn't such good busi
ness for the others."
Although Ty is out of baseball ac
tually, the old lure is there in inter
est. He'll either go to Florida when
the spring trnining camp trek begins
or he may decide to watch some club
training in California.

Capt. John J. McEwan, former head
football coach at Oregon and now in
charg. of the football destinies of
Holy Cross, a Jesuit college, dropped
into town Saturday for a several days'
vacation in and around Eugene. Mc
Ewan figures on catching up on his
hunting and fishing and will take
things easy tor a while.
"Cap" had a good season at Holy
Cross. The team liaun t oenten Mar
vard in years, and they stepped out
and trimmed the lamhridge hoys witn
n score of -7 to nothing. The Holy
Cross eleven won every game this
season except the one with Lordham.
who went undefeated in the East until
they lost to St. Mary's of California.
"Cap" doesn't expect to have as
good a season next year, however,
as he will have to work with too
much young material, but he ex
pects to have hie best team in 1932.
As to hie prospects after that, he is
unable to say since a coach can't
look more than two or three years
ahead due to the uncertainty of ma
terial. McEwan had gone to Holy Cross
under h one year's contract but be
cause of his success this season, has
been signed for three years more.
Can ikes it back there, but says
the fishing isn't so good in those parts
and he expects to do a lot of it while
here. He stopped In Portland for Sev
ern) days nnd went duck hunting down
the Columbia, and the shooting was
fine.
'"You can say that I'm glad to
be here, and that my visit has al
ready been an enjoyable one," said
Cap when interviewed Saturday.
He had a whole cluster of friends
around him at the time. If the ex
Oregon coach doesn't enjoy his
visit, it won't be because his friends
aren't glad to see him.
Colbert and Christensen, Oregon's
nil-coast linemen, left the other dny
for California to get ready for the
Christmas East-West classic at Keznr
stadium. The game, sponsored by
the Sliriners, is to be a charity affair,
and advunce indications point to a
stadium full of spectators. Johnny
Kitzmiiler. Oregon's "Flying IUitcli
n.an" and "most valuable Pacific
Coast player for 1030," will play in
the backfield, so Oregon will be well
represented in the lineup. Ihe game
features the outstanding players from
the West against a similar group from
the East, nnd ranks in importnnce
with the Rose Bowl game at Pasadena
on New Year's day.
Kitzmlller has been spending hie
time at the Olympic club in San
Francisco while training for the
game. He stayed down there after
seeing the Notre Dame-Southern
California game at Los Angeles.
Colbert and Christensen returned
to Eugene and started for San
Francisco afoot. The two big men,
who were teamed as the "quarter
ton tackles" last year, pal around
together most of the time and they'
decided to save car fare by hitch
hiking. According to word received
here Saturday, however, they fell in
with a driver who was going dear
through to San Francisco and they
rode all the way witn mm.
The driver must have been glad for
the chance to enrry the big players to
the scene of e)ie game, but it must
have worked something of a hardship
on his car. Christensen nnd Colbert
iimke up n load anytime. It will be

SOUTH FOR ROSE

PORTLAND. Ore.. Dec. 20. W
Twenty-five Washington State Col
lege football players, and the eudless
retinue that attends a big-time team,
dropped into Portland today on the
way to Pasadena and the New Year's
classic witli Alabama.
Champions of the Pacific Coast
conference, the Cougars expect to
have their hardest game of the
year with the much touted Crimson
Tide of Alabama, undefeated in the
Southern conference.
Special "homecoming" parties were
staged here for two Portland boys.
Mel Hein. all-American center, and
Lylc Haskell, end.
A breakfast of hamburger was
served on the station platform to
Butch Meeker,' the LtMJ-pouna
cougar mascot.
Coach Babe Hollingbery was not
llscussiii? methods of attack today,
but it was said he has developed a
pass defense, strengthened Ihe for
wnrd wall although it has shown no
sign of weakness, and worked up
tlie aerial and ground defensive.
The Cougars have gone through
two weeks of hard practice nnd will
get more of it before tlie game on
.w enr s day. .Many or tnem er,nea
the grind with bruises and minor
injuries, nlthoiigb none was badly
hurt. Mel Hein. center, and Olenn
Edwards, treated roughly in the
Villnnovn game Nov. 'JO. will be
back in form within n dny ot so.
llollingliery said both probably will
get in the starting lineup.
remembered that the big boon-com
panions carried took at vnuer mse
all summer, only to be replaced by a
team of mules when the football sen
son stnrted.
St. Marv's high school basketball
team, coached by Father Leipzig, has
won all three of Its "B" league gnmea
this year, and is looking forward to
tl, ,-iii with Snntn Clara Jnnunrr 5.
The Catholic team bent Elmirn with
,.nri of 21 to 14. Thurston with n
score of 2R to 0. and Coburg with a
20 to 1rt score. Plain, old fashioned
enthusiasm has accounted for much
of the team's success, since Joe Berg
er is the only regular who returned
from last year's team. Most of the
players have had little experience, but
Father Leipzig is highly pleased witn
their work and is expecting them to
make an even better showing as the
season progresses.
Lud Wray was fired as coach at
Pennsylvania after the boys re
fused to play because they charoed
Wray was harsh with them. What
Penn wants is a Wray of sunshine.
It's too bad Lud Wray couldn't be
named coach of New York univer
slty. Then they might nickname him
Violet Wray.
The funs like action In wrestling
inntcbcs. and that's why Herb Owen is
hilling six fust little men for his Fri
day card. With six like O'Reilly. Mor
rell nnd Vangler on the mil. mere
shouldn't be any dissatisfied custom
ers. These boys have mode the main
events tough sledding for the big
wrestlers, for they put on such fast
prelims that the mnin shows have
looked slow and dull. It's high time
tlie little boys get a break, and Owen's
action will be applauded by almost
cverv gniiiiiling fun in town.
