PANTHERS EAGER
FOR REVENGE ON
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9. (AP)
Pittsburg's great football team has
been given lu cbanoe lot revenge.
With startling suddenness came the
announcement late yeaterday that
the Pitt Panthers, unbeaten In ten
games, but twice tied, had accepted
the University of Southern Call
tornla'a Invitation to play in the 18th
annual rose tournament game at
Pasadena, January 3.
It was an opportunity lor Coach
Jock Sutherland's eleven to atone for
the most decisive defeat ever written
into the annals of the grid war of
the roses, for It was the Trojan team
which trounced Pitt, 47 to 14, In Its
last appearance here almost three
years ago.
The announcement came at a mo
ment when the bopea of Michigan
receiving the bid were at blgh tide.
The football fans of the far west felt
that the Big Ten conference waa
about to amend lu anti-post season
rule to give the unbeaten and untied
Wolverines a chance to accept the In
vitation Southern California was will
ing to tender.
Prom the entire situation It was
deducted that Trojan officials had
been Informed that the chances were
ellm for the lifting of the Big Ten
ban.
Pittsburg was given the invitation
over Colgate on the basis of Its
showing through a rugged schedule
of ten gomes, which saw the Pan
thers play outstanding teams from
coast to coast.
Pittsburg defeated Army, Notre
Dame. Stanford, Pennsylvania, Car
negie Tech, Ohio Northern, Duquesne
and West Virginia and was held to
scoreless tics by Ohio State and Nebraska.
10 'TAKE' CADETS
SATURDAY TILT
NEW YORK. Dec. 3 (AP) The
word Is being whispered around, a
little fearfully by the "experts" who
have been fooled so often by foot
ball, that the Navy la In a "sweet"
spot to beat the Army and redeem
all the failures of a very ordinary
season.
There Is little In the records to
prove that either team Is capable of
defeating the other, especially in the
k i nd of game the service schools
always play, but three Is a strong
possibility that the Midshipmen may
reach the pak of their form Saturday
while the Cadets sttU are trying to
recover from last week's defeat by
Notre Dame.
While Army was taking a licking
and VtiB battering that went with it.
Navy had an open spot In Us sched
ule last week, giving two full weeks
of preparation for the big game. That
rest and the absence of serious In
juries may tell the tale although
there Is a strong argument, drawn
from the results of the season, that
Army may come back stronger than
ever.
The Cadets did that once this sea
son, returning to shellac Yale and
Harvard thoroughly after losing to
Pittsburgh, and nearly every other
major team that has been knocked
off the top of the heap In th) past
two months has returned in the same
way to climb back toward the high
spots.
FIELDS' COMEBACK
SAN FRANCISCO, Dee. 2. (AP)
Still displaying championship style
punching, Jackie Fields, welterweight
tltleholder, came back to the ring
here last night after & six months
layoff to knock out Tommy Herman,
Chicago, in the second round for a
scheduled ten-round non-title bout.
Fields, whose absence from the ring
was caused by an eye affliction, end
ed the contest with a short right to
the Jaw shortly after the second
round had started. The first round
was fast with Herman landing several
rights to the Jaw. Fields weighed 154
pounds and Herman 153.
Among the spectators was Young
Corbctt of Fresno who is tentatively
matched with fields for a title battle
'here February 22.
SQUAD PREPARE
GRID TOUCHDOWN CROP
SHORTEST IN 10 YEARS
NEW YORK, Dec. 3 (AP) AU the
ball toting, passing and kicking the
star backs of the nation could do
with the aid of the hard-working but
often unheralded linemen, brought
fewer touchdowns this year than In
any of the previous ten seasons.
The record of 159 representative
teams showed the lowest total of the
eleven years such records have been
gathered by the Associated Press. 12.83
points per game. Last year the aver
age was 14 points a game and In 1930
it was two points higher. The high
mark for the eleven years was made
in 1922 when the records of A3 teams
showed an average of 19 points a
game.
Texas Christian, champions of the
southwest conference, led the major
colleges, totalling 283 points in eleven
games for an average of 25.7 while
holding Its opponent to 33 points In
all.
Colgate's sturdy team easily copped
defensive honors, not allowing the
enemy a point In nine contests while
scoring 264.
Numerous explanations were found
to explain the drop In scoring Among
them, hard competition and the ab
sence of soft games on the schedules
of major teams but many of the lead
ing coaches, among them Colgate's
guide, Andy Kerr, were inclined to
cast much of the blame upon the
new rules, which, they say, penalize
the ball carriers more than the de- f
tenses. The new regulations barring j
the flying block and the flying wedge
and the one which makes a ball dead
when the carrier touches the ground
with any part of his body except his
feet, coming on top of other restrict
ions on the offense proved a bit too
much for the scorers although they
hsd the desired effect in reducing injuries.

VIE FOR PLACES
ON TIGER QUINT
(By Adrian Fraley.)
With the closing of football season
Saturday, Medford high has turned to
winter sports. Basketball is now in
swing with the lnterclass tournament
under way. There were 45 candi
dates for a position on the class
teams. Some of these hold hope of
landing a position on the Tiger squad.
The tournament will be held on
the same order as last year, permit
ting Coach D. K. Burgher to make
definite plans for the awarding of the
positions on the high school squad.
Jerry Trill was appointed leader of
the senior hoopmen. With the ma
terial out he should be able to make
a championship team out of them.
Dick Sleeter was placed at the head
of the Juniors. Dick played on the
Tiger Cuba last year; the experience
will greatly aid him In getting his
team In trim. Bill Luman Is leader
of the newcomers. They have a lot
of material which can be worked Into
a fast squad.
Practice for the coming games be
gan last night. The tilts will begin
Monday night, and probably last all
week.
