—— TUESDAY jANUARY l I 946 ROSE BOWLIS TOHANGUPON RUN VS.PASS Gilmer - Tannehill Duel Seen as Pivot for Out- come Pasadena Classic By BILL BECKER PASAD&NA, Caur., gan. 1.—Harry (The Arm) Gilmer’s passing vs. the rugged running of Ted Tannehill! That was the way the expert opin- fon boiled down for today's Rose Bowl grid classic between undef2at- ed, untied Alabama and the Univer- sity of Southern California Trojans, Pacific Coast Conference champions, before a probable crowd of 93,000 Ttre question whether Gilmer, top collegiate passer of 1945, could throw more touchdowns than Tro- Jjan Tannehill could run. The ma- Jjority of experts thought the Arm would prevail, although generally there was a comedown from the feel- ing Alabama was 13 points better. The broken jaw of Lowell Tew, the Crimson Tide's' best running back, and the powerful impression made in the past week by USC's big 203- pound average line whittled the consensus margin to 'Bama, but, as 'Amos Alonzo Stagg, College of the Pacific's dean of football coaches re- marked yesterday, “Jeff Cravath (Trojan coach) has a great p: chological advantage.” The Trojans won all eight of their previous Rose Bowl games, while Alabama boaster the best record cf any Eastern representative—three wins, one loss, one tie. Cravath also was aiming to beccme the first Rose Bcwl coach to win three straight games. His teams defeated Wash- ington, 29-0 in 1944, and Tennessee, 25-0, last year. Tre Tide's coach, canny Frank Thomas, winningest mentor in col- legiate football, hoped speed and « Gilmer's tossing—which yielded 905 yards and 13 touchdowns this season —would overcome USC's eight-pound weight advantage. Trojan starters average 193 to ‘Bama's 185. JUNEAU WELCOME 10 1946 WAS BIG BUT ORDERLY T00 Check-up this New Year’s morn- ing of the guest list at the City Jail revealed that, though local cele- brants of the advent of 1946 were out in numbers last night and their no- lid-on "enthusiasm or hilarity, still this was an orderly community as the old year faded. Police reported amusement places jammed but a noticeable lack of viclence. Officers were not too hard pressed as they went about seeing that things didn't go out of bounds Revelers filled the whole down-| town area from South Franklin up to 'the Baranof, with merry din and clatter, but did 1ot wind up by fill- ing the jail. As the 2 o'clock clos- ing hour settled on Juneau night spots, it was Douglas’' turn to be- come filled up — and it was. - — DOGGONE BOSTON, Mass, Dec. 12.—A local | barber has taken a thorough mm- ming—even if his shop is near po-| lice headquarters and some of Bos- ton’s finest are atong his custo-| mers. ! { Barber Arthur Boudreau has re- ported the loss of all his scissors, razors, clippers and other tools.

Jack D. Jadoff, operator, filled orders to patrons until the end of the year, which also marked the end of his Territorial liquor dispensary license. As 1946 rolled around, customers were shooed out and the doors locked. THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA |WEST MENTORS DUBIOUS ABOUT Norah | FAVORITE ROlE‘ Weatherman Promises HIS Best for Shrine All-Star Renewal Game Today SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 1.—With a mild, sunny afternoon promised by the weatherman, a capacity crowd of 60,000 fans is expected to see the 21st annual East-West All Star game at 2 p. m. (PST) today at Kezar stadium. The game, with the West team a 10-7 favorite this year, is played for the benefit of the Shriner’s Crippled Childrens’ Hospital. All tickets were sold out weeks ago. Although their team was rated the favorite, the Western coaches were not overly enthusiastic. The West team looked for a “rough af- ternoon” Coach Babe Hollingbery said, noting that the East team beasts some of the nation’s great- est passers and scorers. George Savitsky, Penn tackle, and Tom Hughes of Purdue are among the Eastern stars. Savitsky and Hughes, along with Jack Bres- lin, were members of last year’s Eas’ - team The presence of Jake Leicht, Ore- gon halfback and Doak Walter of Southern Methodist was chiefly re- sponsible for dopestgrs giving the West team an edge.
