WELCH TO BUILD
NEW HUSKY TEAM
FOR BOWL CLASH
Washington Coach Gloomy
Over Loss tf Key Men-
Dislikes Odds on Game.
By Lloyd Tupllng
(United Press Correspondent)
Seattle, Dec. 7. (U.R) With
the first day of formal work
outs for the Rose Bowl football
game complete, Coach Pest
Welch today reflected on the
Washington Huskies' prospects
for "the big game" and declared
the next four weeks will be
"like building a new team for
one-game schedule.
wcicns aire forecast, pro
pounded with an eye to possible
psychological effects, was based
on tne fact ha has lost several
first-stringers since the Huskies
wound up a four-gome schedule
without defeat on Oct. 30. In
fact, the Huskies' abbreviated
season and lack of practice for
more than a month brought ad
ditional gloomy murmurlngs
from Welch, who pointed out
that the University of Southern
California has the experience of
full eight-game schedule.
"And there's nothing like ex
perience In a football team," the
former Purdue all-American
aid. "Lack of game experi
ence Is hurting us."
Reports of odds favoring the
Huskies in the annual grid
classic presented Welch with an
other problem. His brow
wrinkles up like an accordion
when he ponders the effect on
his players of statements that
Washington Is 83 points better
than the Trojans "on paper."
"There's no basis for that
kind of comparison," . Welch
said. "From what I saw of
USC in the March Field game,
the teams are going to be evenly
matched come Jan. 1."
New Men Out
The effect of new season
was produced at the Huskies'
initial Rose Bowl practice yes
terday as new aspirants turned
out to fill vacancies left when
the marine corps took several
of Welch's stars off to officers'
school. But tvar-tlme condi
tions, which Made Washington
the only northwest conference
school with marine and navy
trainees, have loft Welch with
plenty of material to fill the
gaps.
Among those aspiring to
place on the Rose Bowl squad
were Don Holllngberry, son of

In the case of Murray

after Murray had the Cleveland

booed the decision so Ions and
so lustily that a re-match was as
necessary as if by royal com-
mand. They'll tangle again in
late February after both princi
pals recover from their wounds.
Atkins, who in four short veers
changed Cleveland from one of
tne country's worst fight cities
into a promoter's paradise, said,
"I knew Murray was a sood
fighter before I matched him
with Blvlns. But during the first
two rounds, I thought Murray
would ruin me. He never let

The city council today sought a
legal means to stage a Pacific

ntclpally-owned Memorial Coll'
seum after tha two universities
which rent the stadium during
the regular season refused to
permit the game.
The University of Southern
California and the University of
California at Los Angeles vetoed
th game, scheduled for Dec. 19
for army and navy relief! on the
grounds that their contracts with
the city gave them th right to
oar professional games in the
stadium during the university
season, which ends with the Rose
Bowl game New Year's Day.
permission for tha gam had
oeen granted by the Coliseum
commission, and the parks and
recreation committee called a
special meeting to decide wheth
er to take further action.
"We shouldn't slap the face
of the universities," Councilman
O. Vernon Bennett said, "be
cause university football games
have kept the city from facing
a large deficit on the Coliseum
maintenance dating back long
before the era of professional
football."
Another council member, John
