Mf r r i. i )944 Coege Grid Play By TED MEIER NEW YORK, Dec. 13 (P) Spread of the tricky "T" forma tion and better play of civilian teams were tho most noteworthy trends of the 1044 college foot ball season, an Associated Press survey showed totiay. Leading exponent of the system, famed for its deception and quick opening plays, vas of course the unbeaten and un tied West Point Cadets, but virtually all sections of the coun try reported an increasing num ber of teams dropping the singlo and double wing attack in favor of the T. On the Pacific coast, for in stance, all four major colleges used the system , that Clark Shaughnessy (now at Pitt) in Iroduccd at Slunforcl in 1940. Southern California made ex- Two Perfect Cage Records Smashed By The Associated Press Two unmarred records, one collegiate and one service, were smashed last night as the East ern Washington college Savages blasted previously undefeated Washington Stale colloge 57-37 and Whitman college bumped the Pasco naval air station. Fly ers 59-49. The Ephrata air base edged Gonzaga university 49-48 and Idaho, despite a basket accident ally tipped into the opposition basket by Vandal Guard Len Pyne, downed the Walla Walla army airXield 39-28. On the strategic side of the cage picture. University of Washington Coach Hoc Edmund son announced he had switched Don McMillan, top scorer of the Husky five, to center, and Bill Vandenburg, to forward. The move was made, he said, to bet ter accommodate each player's style of play.

They both have trouble breathing on cold days-asthma. cellcnt use of the formation after experimenting with it in 1943. The University of Cali fornia, UCLA and Washington likewise were converts. In the Southeast conference Coach Ab Kirwan of Kentucky adopted the T, but reverted to the single wing after three games because so many of his players were injured. He went back to the balanced line setup for Kentucky's last two games wnen enough players recovered, Since the T formation tends to make every play a touchdown play observers noted that the game veered away from con servative tactics. As George Veenker, Iowa State athletic di rector, declared: "finesse and percentages went out the win dow." He attributed this atti tude in part to the military axiom that to win you must at tack at all times. Press box experts the nation over reported better play by all civilian elevens as exemplified by Ohio State's perfect season. They pointed out that the tough navy ana marine trainees ol 1943 had largely moved on into the fighting theaters and that the new trainees frequently were boys with only high school ex- penence. Thus civilian teams, aided in some cases by clis charged veterans, were more on an equal plane with navy V-12 or marine trainee laaen oppon. ents. This levelling off process brought many 17 and 18-year- olds to the fore as spectacular backfield runners. Bob Kelly of Notre Dame; Buddy Young of Illinois; Bob Fenimore of the Oklahoma Aggies and Tony Minisi of Pennsylvania were among the more prominent. Tough Tony Ross To Rassle Olsen In Opening Bout In the opening go on. the rassling card at the Klamath crunch cradle Friday night Tough Tony Ross has been booked by Promoter Mack Lil lard to butt biceps with Milt Olsen, the Minneapolis rneany. This rounds out a four-star show, with no raise in prices to Klamath rassling fans, which features two main events and brings back Gorgeous George Wagner, tho self-styled "Toast of the Coast." This is as fine a card as has been seen at the armory in many months and Llllard has gone to great lengths to bring this snlendid array of grappling talent to town. ihe macule coast light-heavy king will appear against Gust Johnson in the person of Joltin' Jack Kiser. Pin-up Boy Kiser will be extended plenty by Gloomy Gust, who has been do ing all right on the northwest mat route with his surfboard holds. Jack is a clever, fast rassler, however, and may be able to lure Johnson into his alligator clutch. Once that happens its all over but the shouting. Gorgeous George says he dis likes to sully his hands on the likes of his opponent. Bulldog Jackson, and that he will end the bout in short order. Bull dog retaliates by stating with a snarl that he will run that punk clean out of the armory ana minus oamroDe at mac. Wally MOss has been given the duke to arbitrate the shindig as the third man in the ring. Wally doesn't hold still for any thing that is too foul so one swell crunch card may be ex. pected Friday night to a capacity nouse. Dams Ruining Salmon Industry, Says Wire SALT LAKE CITY, Dec. 13 W) Frank Wire, Oregon fish and game commission representa tive at the western association of fish and game commission meeting here, urged Monday that state commissions study pro posed dam construction projects and make recommendations as to their probable effect on fish ing.
