Calif., Dec. 31 (AP The Stanford-Alabama. Rose Bowl football game will be broad cast over the National Broadcast ing network tomorrow afternoon, beginning approximately at 1;30 p. m, pacific standard time from Htatlnn KFI. By PALL ZIMMKKMAN Associated Press Sports Writer PASADENA, Cal., Dec. SI. (AP) H sad coaches of the Alabama and Stanford footbMl teams agreed today that victory In the Rose Bowl classic game tomorrow will go to the eleven capitalizing on the breaks. "I feel that the two squads are so closely matched," said Coach Prank Thomas of the Crimson Tide, "that the breaks will decide tills game Naturally, I hope we get them." Claude (Tiny) Thornhlll boomed the same thought In his deep bass voice, but he enlarged upon It. Good Teams Muke Breaks The team that makes the breaks," said towering Tiny, "and then takes advantage of them, should win. I say, 'makes the breaks' because that la Just whet a good football team does. "Blocked punts don't Just happen. Most of the time they are premedi tated blta of strategy. And fumbles come more often from hard, elsan tackling than from bad handling of the ball." These carefully chosen remarks were made before the two mentors took their squads to their final prac tice for the New Year's classic to be enacted before a capacity crowd of Approximately 85,000 persons. For the most part, the coaches feel their teams will be at full strength. Thomas of the southern eleven Is still a bit dubious about Jim Angel lch, first string halfback, who has a weakened ankle. i Near Full Strength ! Thornhlll Is convinced every man save, possibly, Keith Topping, regular end, will be ready for a full and fierce battle. While the odds on the game were quoted at 7 to 6 In favor of Alabama, or six points, little betting was being done except at even money and it was expected there would be no fa yoritlam by game time tomorrow.

PETE AND DEMON n After finally persuading Pete Bel castro, belligerent Italian wrestler, to risk his neck again at the handt of one of the toughest and roughest matmen with whom he has ever traded grips and grunts, Promoter Mack Llllard announced today that he has made definite arrangements with the colorful Italian for a return bout with Red Devil, the mysterious meanle, next Thursday night at the armory. Hal Rumberg. 225-pound grappler from Spokane, will tangle in the semi-final of the double-barrelled card with Joe Hubka, former Univer sity of Nebraska athlete who took the wind out of Tony Catalano'a sails last week. , A return tussle between Red Devil and Belcastro will give local fans Just what they have been hoping for ever since they saw the cocky Italian snap out of a terrible lacing several weeks ago and drop-kick the big demon clear Into the third row of spectators, as he was trying to climb Into the ring. Suffering from an Injured back and carrying a wicked gleam In his eye for Just such men as Belcastro, the hooded one packed up his scar let draperies and hied himself to Texas, where he has been recovering from the kick and vowing vengeance ever since. Pete, not so sure he wants to un dergo another brow-beating like he received through most of the first match, has hemmed and hawed about the arrangement for several weeks, but finally hitched up his belt, told Llllard he'd send the big meanie scampering farther than Texas this time, and agreed to take another whack at blm.
