It was “brick” Muller’ all-Amer!- can end of the University of Call- fornia’s “wonder team” which made football history a few years back, who made the touchdown possible. Muller lunged in the air in the third quarter and snagged a long pass from Tut Imlay, this year’s Califor- nia captain, and slid over the goal line for the score.

Stet on Dee ees ALABAMA GOES THROUGH FIRST STIFE WORKOUT Coach Is Confident His Men Will Be in Best Shape Jan. 1 PASADENA, Calif, Dec. 26,— (United Press)—Alabama’s southern champions went through their third workout at the Tournament of Roses stadium today, throwing their full strength into practice on a western fleld for the first time. Coach Wallace Wade declared con- fidently tonight that he expects to have his men in the best of con- dition for the New Year's day battle with Washington, Pacific coast champions. The Dixie mentor has not complained about the handicap of the long trip to the coast and he asserts his men will not be hampered by the milder Californian climate. The visiting southerners work without socks, which Wade says are never worn in Dixie except in cold weather. The California cll- mate {s warmer than his own In Alabama, and his players probably will be without stockings when they tangle with the giants of Washing- ton. Wade has not planned any scrim- mage for his men while preparing for the encounter with the Huskies. The Dixle champions came through the long southern conference sea- son in good shape physically and the coach does not want them over- trained for the post season battle. The southerners will not work out Sunday, but will make a tour of Southern California’s beaches. An- pr practice 1s scheduled for Mon, morning, to be followed by a visit to the movie plants in Holly wood. There will be light datly practices until Friday, when the business of the day with Washington ts the only work on the program. The Washington eleven is due here Tuesday, ‘They will take at least two workouts in the Rose Bow! before Friday, but, according to ad- vices here the Huskies virtually have completed their heavy training.

BROWN. A careful study of the sporting records of the dying yea of 1 leaves me with the impression that golf furnished more thrills, consid ered in the light of their settings, elements of ‘surprise, and general interest, than any of the other lead ing branches. | First of all was the startling | showing of Miss Glenna Collett | Invading Europe for the - first time she fairly stunned the Unent with her masterful pla of knowledge of British game, turf conditions and the strain of facing, possibly, both Miss Joyce Wethered and Ceci) Leitsch handicapped her in the British tourney, but she met many of the same field in the French women's open championship tourney a short time later and won that title. Returning to this country she again proved herself the queen of the U, 8. golfing fraternity by play- ing her way through the most bril- lant f'eld produced for national com- petition in the women's ranks. Where Miss Collett failed, Long Jim Barnes succeeded, A perennial seeker of the British open Barnes played his way through that tourney and won it. ‘The interest In this tourney was Increased by the threat hurled by MacDonald Smith, who Played spectacular golf until the final round, only to fall down when | “MISS GLENNA COLLETT she should, would have carried him nes bs a Title, T Smith later won the western open | lide by playing the brilliant brand | he delivered early in the itish meet home, Bobby Jones, Atlanta wonder and one of the great- xt tournantent playets the Scottish me has produced, set out to win back the national open champion- ship, which he had held in 1923, + Up to the finals, he clinibed his vay, with a brilliant exhibition of golf—only to find “Wee Willie Mac- rlane, waiting for him—to chal- lenge his right to the crown, Over 36 extra holes these men battled for suprem: And when the fiercest battle ever witnessed for the open tifle wag ended MacFarlane had won, Determined to hold his amateur title, won in 1924, Jones entered the amateur tourney.

But the wonderfil golf displayed by Walter Hagen carfied the tourney to the limelight. It was a reverse brand of golt by Hagen and a brilliant. perform: ance, in direct contrast, by Leo Diegel, Canada's pride, which drew unusual attention to the Canadian open tournament, won by Diegel. The“ men were paired together. Those who knew Hagen felt that his ultra-Ritz air, supreme confidence, and coolness under fire, would carry him through, But it was Diegel who gave the exhibition expected of Hagen. he season saw also the return to tourney play of Alexa Stirling Frazer, Atlanta wizard.

Dec. 26.—(United Press)—The fourth annual meeting nd banquet of. the American Coaches association will be held here Monday at the Hotel Pennsylvania.

Lucas, going to Cincinnati, played everywhere, batting 355. He is the same red-headed, pushing, deter mined youth who tried for second} base and pitcher at Boston, Lazerre, home run king of the Pa- tific const with his 60 swats in 167 games, is going to the Yanks. His wverage isn’t.as good as that of Babe! Ruth, but good enough. This young talian has come on very fast in two years and he was smart enough last season to make 252 hits, which shows that he centers on the ball, even when he is not making hom: runs, Emmer, shortstop at Seattle, who “hag been taken on by Cincinnati, batted .329 in 151 games. Take 20 off from that to allow for the major season and Emmer seems to be about a .300 batter, not so much better than Caveney, but the latter was such an erratic thrower that the Reds finally let him go. Jake Daubert, who died, was the only first baseman who could handle Caveney. Riconda, the third baseman who has been taken on by the Boston Nationals, batted .320 in 120 games. If Riconda is that much better than he was with the Athletics, the Bos: tons will be stronger at third base in 1926 than they have been for a long time. Hinman, a. Seattle first sacker, who batted .317 in 167 games last season, goes to Brooklyn, He looks lke a certain .300 batter in the majors and is said to have bee the best first baseman west of the Rockies. Rhyne, picked up by Pittsburgh, batted .315 for San Francisco, which brings him to about .295 in the majors. He was the finest all around ontfielder on the coast and had been on the point of getting east three or four times, but the San Francteco club wanted so much for him that the deals with majors fell through. McCann, of Portland, played in 178 games, batted .310 and will help the Boston American league infield, which needs a lot of aid.
