San Tranciaco. Dec. 13. (AP)
The west's famoui new year a
football classics tho Rose Bowl
nd the East-West games hunt
ed temporary new homes today
as war refugees.
Military expediency demand
ad blackout of the games. The
army waa firm. Sponsors agreed
to cooperate fully and cancelled
ail local arrangement.
Then, as Pasadena and San
Francisco kissed dreams of
thousands of tourist dollars good
bye, official! went to work to
find other quarters for the or
phaned sports spectacles.
Offara Solicited
Where the games might be
taken was anybody's guess.
Percy Locey, director of ath
letics at Oregon State College,
the West's Rose Bowl representa
tive, said he was "receptive to
offers" of a place to hold the
game, a feature of tha annual
Pasadena Tournament of Roses.
And he got them. Officials of
Duke University, Oregon State's
choice to represent the east, sug
gested that the game be played
at Duka Stadium, at Durham,
N. C, "with Rose Bowl sanction
or otherwise." Chicago, New
York, and Kansas City were
mentioned as other possible sites.
There appeared to ba plenty
of takers for the East-West game,
too. Atlanta, Chicago, Spokane,
and Norman, Okla., home of the
University of Oklahoma, all were
reported to have been In touch
with East-West representatives.
A decision on the East-West en
counter, an annual benefit for
the Shriners' Crippled Children's
hospital here, was expected to
day. Heavy Loss Seen
The financial loss incurred
could only be estimated. Based
on last year'a figure, Duke would
have received about 1100.000
from tho Tournament of Roses
association. Oregon State would
have taken $57,000 and nine
other Pacific Coast conference
members would have received
$7,300 each. The association,
owner of the Rose Bowl, would
have netted $71,000. The asso
ciation still owes $40,000 on the
bowl.
Sixty thousand tickets have
been sold to the Rose Bowl game
for approximately $264,000. The
money will be refunded by indi
vidual check. Oregon State,
which already has spent about
$20,000 for promotion and other
preliminary work, will foot the
stamp bill.
There was no one to say what
division of revenue will be made
ahould the game be played else
where. Tickets to 90 per cent of the
60,000 seats in Kezar Stadium,
alte o( the East-West game, have
been sold. Purchasers will be re
imbursed in full. A reserve fund
built up over the 18 years the
game has been pl-ycd will as
sure the crippled children's hos
pital against curtailment of ser
vice for lack of finances.
Shriners' officials said approxi
mately $20,000 already had been
spent for promotion and equip
ment. This, too, will ba paid out
of reserves.
In Chicago. Andy Kerr of Col
gate, coach of the eastern stars,
aaid It waa unlikely that the
East-West game would be staged
In Chicago's Soldier Field be
cause of the normal January
weather conditions.

BEARS WIN RIGHT
TO FACE GIANTS
Chicago, Dec. IS. W) The
schedule makers of the National
Football league disappointed fol
lowers of the New York Giants
in not pitting their favorite team
against the Champion Chicago
Bears, but everything is all right
now. i
Tha league's representatives
in the nation's two largest cities
finished tha season's play by
winning their respective division
titles, automatically placing them
as finalists for the championship
encounter. The title game will
be played next Sunday in Chi
cago's Wrlgley field.
Tha Giants knew they were
one of the finalists a couple of
weeks ago but the Bears only
yesterday captured the western
section honors by humbling the
Green Bay Packers, 33 to 14, in
a playoff.
The Giants were among the
43,325 fans at yesterday's third
Bear-Packer clash. They learned
what some of the league's other
clubs discovered by tha trial and
error method this year that the
Bears often are vulnerable, some
times for 10 minutes, sometimes
fot one or even two periods, and
once this season for the whole
SO minutes (the Packers beat
them, 18-14. on November 2).
Yesterday the Bears were
open to attack for a full 15
minutes, during which time the
Packers slipped over a surprise
touchdown.

Big-time golf's great stretch-runner,
Byron Nelson of Toledo,
Ohio, sprinjed ahead of Ben
Hogan to win first money, In the
$10,006 Miami open, but the
little Hershey, Pa., star's second
place sewed up for him two of
the year's most coveted honors.
Even though he took a 72 and
blew his three-day lead, Hogan
gathered in a $1,230 check that
sent his year's tournament win
nings to $17,333 more money
than any other pro can win this
year.
He also received 30 points to
ward the Vardon trophy the
pro's emblem of year-around
tournament excellence to run
his total to a new record of 524.
With only two P. G. A. -sponsored
tournaments left, the sec
ond place golfer, Sam Snead of
Hot Springs, Va., did not retain
even a mathematical chance of
overtaking Hogan.
Nelson burned up the fairways
on the last nine and wound up
with a brilliant 69 for a 72-hole
total of 269, five strokes better
than Hogan and six ahead of
Slammln' Sammy.

Young, Inexpensive
Coach May Gel Call
To Succeed Phelan
Seattle, Dec. IS. .(VP) The
Post-Intelligencer said today that
despite the clamor for a "big
name" coach, University of
Washington officials may pick a
man from the northwest as suc
cessor to Football Coach Jimmy
Phelan.
Athletic Director Ray Eck-
mann somewhat unexpectedly
terminated the services of Phelan
and his two assistants, Chester
(Cotton) Wilcox and Ralph (Pest)
Welch Saturday.
Tha paper said an authorita
tive source told it that: 'The war
is almost certain to place mark
ed restrictions on football until
the emergency is over. The sub
sidy is bound to be reduced.
With that thought in mind, the
logical move would appear to
be to obtain the services of a
young fellow just commencing
his coaching career.
"There would be no big sal
ary demands. Under restricted
conditions such a coach would
have an opportunity to prove his
ability and grow up with the in
stitution."
Blackoul Headlights
Blamed in Collision
AI Main and Ivy Sis.
First collision of cars attrib
uted to blackout lights was on
record at city police station to
day. Kenneth Ballweg, 28, 1207
East Main street, and Norman
Burreson, 23, Gold Hill, operated
the cars that collided late Sat
urday night, at West Main and
Ivy streets, according to the re
port. Ballweg, driving east on
Main, reported he had his head
lights "painted to meet blackout
requirements," and Burreson,
driving north on Ivy, said he
did not see the car, the report
showed.
State police last week pointed
out that it is Illegal to drive a
car with blacked-out headlights
outside of blackout perioda and
that only emergency or other of
ficial cars are permitted to oper
ate during blackouts. The po
lice said vehicles which must be
on streets and highways both
during and outside blackout pe
riods may use two spotlights out
side the periods and the regula
tion blacked-out lights during
blackouts.

WORKER CABLES
WON DEC. 13
Additional residents here re
ceived word today of the safety
of relatives on islands in the
Pacific war area.
Mrs. Harold Looper, 4 IS West
Second street, received a cable
gram dated December 11 saying
that her husband, who is em
ployed on Midway island, was
all right. The terse message
said: "OK. Love." Th. island
has been under Japanese pres
sure since the outbreak of war
December 7.
Mrs. Lewis Thompson, clerk
in justice of the peace court,
also received a brief cablegram
this morning from her husband.
Sent from Midway island yes
terday, the message read:
'OK. Love."
Mrs. Thompson said It was her
understanding similarly cheer
ing word was received by local
relatives of other defense work
ers on the Pacific isle.
Justice of the Peace W. R.
Coleman Saturday received a
letter from his son, Russell, a
resident of Honolulu tor many
years, written a day or so after
the Japanese attack.
The air raid came as a com
plete surprise, while most of the
mid-Pacific city was sleeping
late on Sunday, he wrote, adding
the bomb explosions were at
first mistaken for target prac
tice. The population was in a
dazed and nervous condition for
a day following, the letter said.
Americans were urged to flu the
sea with ships and the sir with
planes to conquer the foe.
