East-West Gridiron Classic Transferred to New Orleans CLIMATE FACTOR IN TAKING TILT TO TULANE GRID San Francisco And Shreve port Shriner Groups To Divide Hospitals' Funds. Chicago, Dec. 18. WV-Andy Kerr of Colgate university, an nounced today that the annual East-West football game will be played at New Orleans January 3, 1942, instead of San Fran cisco, January 1. Kerr, who with Bernle Bier man of Minnesota, and Dudley De Groot of the University of Rochester, coaches the East squad, said the' game removed from the west coast because of the war, would be played in Tu . lane university's stadium, and In cooperation with the Sugar Bowl sports carnival. Kerr said that climate was the determining factor in mov ing the game to New Orleans rather than to one of the several northern cities which had bid for the game, coupled with "the fine, cooperative spirit of the Sugar Bowl people. Proceeds of the game will be divided between the San Fran Cisco Shrine group which founded and has .staged the game for 18 years for the bene fit of its hospital for crippled children, and the Shrine hos pital for crippled children at Shreveport, La., Kerr saia. The San Francisco ohrlne will manage the game, he said. The game, between picked quads of eastern and western start, will follow by two days the Sugar Bowl game between rordham and Missouri New Year's day. Rose Bowl Fathers Have Worst Worry In Ticket Refunds Pasadena, Calif., Dec. 13. (AP) Fathers of the Rose Bowl football game tenderly tucked the big stadium away in moth balls for the duration today and prepared to shift their New Year's day classic in an unprece dented move to far away Dur ham, N. C. Head Coach Ldn Stlner Is slated to escort his squad of Bea vers from Corvallis, Ore., Fri day to Durham, arriving four days later. Biggest headache and finan cial worry, of course. Involved the stacks of tickets bought and paid for here, but Oregon State authorities announced that re funds would be made as soon as a 30-man office staff can handle them. Duke authorities indicated they face the same problem Ore gon State did here; namely, crowding too many spectators Into limited seating capacity. The Rose Bowl seats 80,000, the Duke stadium, with additions, 62.000. Division of gate receipts was another matter unanswered out here. Ordinarily, Duke would have collected around $100,000, and Oregon State, under the new setup, might have received ap proximately $57,000, which was what Stanford got In the 1941 game with Nebraska.
