NEW YORK, Dec. 9 (Wide
World) Sport leaders have be
gun figuring how the nation's
athletic program will be affect
ed by the war and the first con
clusions are that it will be cur
tailed considerably but not
wiped out . . . They point out
that they're still boxing and
playing soccer and rugby in
England and consider it a good
thing for morale . . . Pro foot
ball seems sure to suffer be
cause it depends so heavily on
boys just out of college . . .
Bank Greenberg is likely to be
called back to the army and
Joe Louis probably will find it
won't make much difference
when his 28th birthday anni-'
versary rolls around next
spring , . . One tiling certain
is that Utah's footballers can
ctop worrying about the lack
of transportation to Hawaii,
where they had a couple of
games scheduled during the hol
idays. ;: TODAY'S GUEST STAR

(UP) Plans for the parade and

on New Year's day will contin

quests an altering of the Pasa
dena program. C. Hal Reynolds.
chairman of the football com

Reynolds made the statement
at a meeting of Pacific coast con

The meeting is being held to dis
cuss the proposed change in con
f ere nee schedules from the
round robin system now in use
to one that would include Idaho
and Montana. ,
Reynolds' statement said:
"Naturally our association de
sires to cooperate in its plans
with the government. However,
based on our experiences in the
last war when U. S. officials aid

January 1 games of 1918-1919
for the benefit of public morale.
we believe that we will be ex

By RUSS NEWLAND
PALM SPRINGS, Calif.. Dec.
9 (iP) Representatives of the
Pacific Coast conference arc
ready to cooperate with the
government in any schedules in
volving the training of athletes
for any possible future service
in the various branches.
That was the initial action
taken in the annual winter
meeting of the major western
circuit. Discussion of whether
to retain the old round robin
football schedule or go on with
the previously accepted plan of
including the Universities of
Idaho and Montana in the full
time Rose bowl scramble was
put over.
There was some debate, how
ever, as to whether the circuit
should go on with its unanimous
decision, made in 1940. to in
clude the two northeastern
members in a new round robin
playing schedule.
Heretofore, Idaho and Mon
tana have enjoyed full voting
privilege in the selection of the
conference's Rose bowl repre
sentative on New Year's day
in Pasadena. However, because
they have not met the game
requirements they have not been
considered in the eight-game
round robin. The round robin
group has comprised Southern
California, Stanford, California,
University of California at Los
Angeles, Washington, Washing
ton State, Oregon and Oregon
State.
Chief business transacted yes
terday was in the joint meet
ing of the conference and inde
pendent coaches. They made the
following recommendations for
rules changes to the national
collegiate football rules commit
tee: 1 No, yardage penalty to be
enforced that shall place the
ball nearer than half the dis
tance to the offending team's
goal line. This would prevent
a team, defending on its own 6,
for instance, from being penal
ized to its 1. The penalty would
put the ball on the 3 instead.
2 A player who intercepts
a lateral pass made by a safety
man following the catch of a
punt shall be permitted to run
with the ball. An obscure rule
says an interceptor cannot run
with the ball after intercepting
a lateral on a punt.
3 The two - minute rule
(against indiscriminate substitu
tions to delay the game) now
in force at the end of each half
be clarified to give uniformity
in officiating.
CHICAGO, Dec. 9 (IP) The
big men of baseball, who have
a tough time at any normal
major league gathering finding
time to discuss trades, have
been so wrapped up in the Pa
cific developments the last two
days that they haven't been able
to produce any noteworthy
moves.

Price Speaks at Annual
Lions' Banquet-Tonight

Klamath Lions' club holds its annual award banquet for Klam

Presentation of awards will be made to outstanding players
of the past season, a regular custom adopted several years ago
by the organization in conjunction with other local service
clubs.
Price will be the featured speaker of the evening. Subject
of his address has not been disclosed.
The Cal mentor arrived this morning from the bomb-threatened
bay area. He inspected the KUHS plant this afternoon.
The banquet begins tonight at 6:30 in the Willord hotel.

Constans of the Quarterback club has insisted that all good

submit to the formal machinery,
Bobby is enlisting, and he's
made up his mind when, where
and how.
Just to provide one clement
of suspense at the baseball
meeting, he said he'd announce
his decision tonight by which
time any of the 16 major league
club owners, managers or other
official hirelings may be ready
to confer with some other kind
of press release.
One move, that won't be an
nounced, however, is the reaf
filiation of Leo (Gabby) Hart
nett with the New York Giants,
who released the former Cub
catcher and manager last fall
and then became involved in
rumors which said they might
invite him back. Gabby already
has a place for next summer:
his appointment as manager of
the Indianapolis club of the
American association was an
nounced yesterday. ,
What else? Well, the boys in
the lobby have traded Johnny
Mize for Dolph Camilli again,
but the head men of the St.
Louis Cardinals and Brooklyn
Dodgers haven't seen things
that way yet, and the deal still
is strictly a rumor proposition.

Texas Blasting of Oregon
Seen As Revenge Whipping
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 9 (IF) There was a pretty gonoral
suspicion among tho football fans up and down tho Pacific
coast today that the University of Texas was torn by unrequited
affection for the Rose Bowl when she humiliated the University
of Oregon with a 71-7 trouncing Saturday.
Oregon's sister Institution, Oregon State, Ignored Texas In
selecting Duke as a Rose Bowl opponent. West coast sportswritcrs
agreed that revenge played a part In the crushing of Oregon.
Their comment:
L. H. Gregory, Portland Ore
gonlan: "Texas was simply try
ing to Impress tho coast with
tho mistake Oregon State made
in inviting Duke to the Rose
Bowl."
Al Santoro, Los Angeles Ex
aminer: "It seems that the ru
mors had reached Austin that
the Oregon Stnto officials had
doubted the Texans' ability to
whip Oregon, therefore hud not
invited them to the Rose Bowl."
Paul Zimmerman,' Los An
geles Times: "The boys down In
Austin turned on the heat Just
to show that they were a little
upset in not getting a bid."

"Because of our comparatively
small alumni group, we should
be able to take care of some pub
lic sale by application," were
his words. "You can mark my
words, the stadium is going to
be filled."
