Already trained down to a fine point, both squado went through a briof workout owtcrday, their first in tne JIobo uowi, see no or tho New Year'B day game K was the first (thoroughly pri vate drill either eleven had experi enced, but. it Is gonerally under stood that both coaches, "Wallace Wade, making his final ," appear ance as gridiron general of Ala bama, and Orin Jlollingbery of Washington State, stressed Jn par ticular their, pasfl plays. , ". v ' ;Botli IjIiioh Strong. . '' Both mentors boast strong lines, through, which few touchdowns 'havo boon punched, thin fall. The Crimson Tldo earned tho nam of being a great defenslvo eleven dur ing tho campaign which carried It to a tlo for Southern conference honors. The Cougara won tho un disputed Pacific Coast title much in tho same Uylo. Tho offenslvo tactics of tho op posing teams have been much the same, dependent mainly on advanc ing tho ball by ahoer force The conclusion is that tho tricks re maining to bo 'pulled Out of tho bag are passes lone ones for the! most pant. . Continual warmjntr up of passers and receivers with a few pans -plays in signal drill by both elevens has beei: the only Indication that this will bo tho case While tho opinion Is that neither team will bo ablo to gain much headway by crashing Into the Unci, It is hardly llkb.iy that either coach will let the matter rest nt just that without giving hU ball luggers a chanco to try their :kjU betwoon aerial thrusts.

With gsmo time only a day away, neither coach wa willing to definitely name a starting lineup. "I'll not be sure until half a mlnuto before gumo time," Coach Jlollingbery said.

Tildcn Informed tho United States Lawn Tennis asHociatlon yesterday he was retiring from amateur competition to accept a contract with tho Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer corporation. Tho contract calls for a series of short films on tennis subjects with tho Philadelphia veteran in the leading role.

' Tilden's decision closely paral lels a similar ono reached recently by Bobby Jones, emperor of golf. Jones at Peak - -There was one big difference, however. , Jones retired while he still was monarch of all he sur veyed. Tllden has passed the peak and, has been forced to stand by In recent years and watch some of the greatest prizes of tennis fall into tho hands of younger players, notably the French triumvirate of Henri Cochct, Rene LaCosto and Jean Borotra. Chiefly through Big Bill's efforts.
