NEW YORK, Jan. I l -Well,
that year 1843 that every
body has been talking about ar
rived an hour ahead of ached
ule war time, you know and
if we could ihow at much speed
In coming up with the aniwen
' to all the questions about what
, will happen this year, it would
tiave a lot ot trouble , . . Speak
ing ior sports, our guess is that
"spectacles are on their way out
but that competition will con
tinue on a broad basis, mainly
because the army and navy
seem to want to get the boys
In shape for service . . . Tne
' folks who followed pro football
last fall concluded that It was
the last season for the duration;
the same impression goes with
the current hockey season and
we figure major league' baseball
probably will stagger through
1943 and then fade out . . ,
The schools and colleges seem
to be coming around to the
idea that their job is to train
boys for the armed forces and
once they learn they can't run
another big-time football sched-
, ule, they'll probably concentrate
on just that, even though the
physical training costs money
instead of providing it.

PASADENA, Calif., Jan. S (P)
Georgia's football empire re
mained Intact today but for
brief moments of three flashing
periods yesterday it tottered in
the concrete stadium here
known as the Rose bowl,
The Bulldogs beat the Uni
versity of California Bruins, 9
to 0 before 93,000 fans but the
champions from the old south
had to accomplish the feat the
hard way.
As measured on the statisti
cal chart, the Bulldog easily
mastered the Bruin, Such fig
ures as 212 yards to 97 in net
yards from scrimmage made the
UCLA effort look pretty feeble.
The 24 first downs Georgia roll-
td up to five for the opposition
emphasized the difference bci
tween the champions of the
Southeastern . and the Pacific
conference.
But for three periods, the
short-end Bruins held the Bull
dogs at bay, staved off three
touchdown drives and stopped
the two Georgia backficld ter

Look at the statistics, brother,
before you hail the East's 13-12
victory over the west as Indis
putable evidence that eastern
football is superior.
The westerners had this com
pensation for the narrow defeat:
They made 13 first down to six
for the East; 164 yards on the
ground against the East's 136,
and 127 yards from forward
passes against 103 for the East.
Two crackerjack opposing
passers turned in handsome

SALEM, Jan. 2 (P) Keith
Crosswhite, sentenced to life im
prisonment 11 years ago for the
murder of a state policeman, will
be released from prison this
week, Governor Charles A. Spra
gue said today in announcing
that he had given Crosswhite
commutation of sentence.
Crosswhite, ace pitcher for the
prison baseball team, gained na
tional prominence last summer
during the furore that was
aroused when he was signed to
the Salem baseball club of the
Western International league.
W. r G. Bramham, national com
missioner of minor league base
ball, refused to let him play.
The plan had been to permit
Crosswhite to pitch a few games,
letting him out of prison only
long enough to pitch.
Crosswhite will go to work on
a Portland war industry, said
the state parole board, which
recommended the release. Ctoss
white indicated to the board that
he has given up any plans to
play professional baseball.
He was received at the prison
February 22, 1932, from Union
county to serve life for the first

Gets Decision
Over Lindsay
PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 2 P)
Manuel Ortiz of El Centra,
Calif., retained his NBA bantam-
; weight championship hero last
1 night by decisioning Ken Lind-
say of Vancouver, B. C, Cana
dlan champ, in a fast 10 rounds,
The decision of two judges Bnd
Referee Ralph Gruman was un
animous although the California
Mexican did a powerful lot of
missing and scored no knock
downs over the Canadian boxing
master.
The fight drew a disappoint
ing gate of only $6300.
Ortiz carried the fight almost
continuously but Lindsay's flick
ing left and fleet footwork made
It next to impossible to land a
solid punch. : Of the few solid
ones that were landed, Ortiz's
did much more damage.
The Associated Press score
sheet credited him with seven
rounds, two being even and one
going to the Canadian, However,
In only three rounds was tho
champion's margin very InrRe.
In one, the third, he caught
Iilndsay with a short riant ta the
head, sending him Into tho ropes, htm eligible
for what looked for a moment 'next fall.
