LOS ANGELES, Sept. 8 (AP) TWa
is the year for Southern California's
football team to travel the airways

While Coach Howard Jonee haj
dropped only a gentle hint In thla
direction there Is plenty of evidence
to Indicate Troy's famous running at
tack will bo made incidental in the
aeason many consider will be the most
disastrous In the head man'a ten years
on the west coast.
Jones Not Weeping.
Jones doesn't Join, however. In the
weeping and walling over the lose of
most of his 1033 line as he touches up
the tandem ahlft and grooms an aerial
barrage.
"Our team looks uncertain because
of the tremendous amount of re
building to do," he said, "but while
the material la green the boys are
promising and strong and I believe
they will accomplish much." Not
given to heavy practice, Jones could
scarcely have said more.

quarterback, turned the

May Have Tipped nana.
When Jones took a lone stand In
trie west In behalf of the new ball,
which he admits should be a boon
to passing, he may have tipped hie
hand.
"We shouldn't be too hasty about
eondemnlng the new football," he said
in an off-hand sort of way. "My boys
have told me they can pass better
with It than with the old one."
Certainly his material points
toward the air. Warburton passes
well, but Is a better receiver Because
of hla speed. Then the two first

Mary Grelner Kelly, now a feature
writer on the Washington (D. C )
Post, formerly a, star reporter on the
Mall Tribune, writes to this paper
that she recently interviewed the fa
mous baseball manager, Clark Grif
fith In the national capital, and that
he asked particularly about Owney
Patton of Medford, with whom he
played league baseball nearly half a
century ago.
"Give my regards to Owney,' said
the president of the Washington "Sen
ators' 'and tell him to drop me a line.
Haven't heard from In years, and sup
posed he was dead."
"Do I remember Owney? I would
say I do. He was one of the quickest
thinkers and fastest base stealers I
ever encountered on a baseball dia
mond. One of my favorite stories Is
the one about Owney In a wild game
in Montana when the excitement and
confusion was most intense, stealing
second, then third and then home, be
fore the other team could wake up to
what he was doing."
"Tell Owney to come down to Wash
ington and I will give him a seat on
the bench with some of the lads who
weren't born when he and I hung up
for gloves. He will like them and they
will like him."

both men had gone through the ropes
twice from Wilson's tackles, and ren
dered unconscious and counted out by
referee Harrington, who declared the
match a draw, the former footballers
refused to accept the decision.
With presumption of hostilities,
Wilson took a dive at the referee by

The 1934 pennant races appeared
today to have been reduced to mat
ters of time and not a very Ions
time at that for the New York
Giants and Detroit Tigers.
Starting long stands on their home
grounds, the two league leaders re
corded a victory apiece yesterday, the
Giants bowling over one of their lead
ing rivals, the Chicago Cubs 5-1.
While the Giants were reducing
Chicago to the status of a third place
club and maintaining their seven
game margin over the St. Louis Car
dinals, the Tigers poked out a 4-2 de
cision over the Athletics and increas
ed their lead over the Idle New York
Yankees to six games.
