A-18 WAS&INGTON. D. C, FRIDAY, JANUARY 2, 1942. Touchdown Parades in Bowl Games Are as Numerous as New Year Day Headaches Win, Lose or Draw _ By GRANTLAND RICE. (In the temporary absence of Francis E. Stan.) East-West Game a Galaxy of Grid Comets NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2 (NAN.A)—With only a dav's intermission for a breathing spell, New Orleans is all set for her second big football show tomorrow when East meets West. ‘The late Mr. Kipling was all wrong when he said “never the twain shall meet,” for there are some 70 or 80 strong and fast football stars on hand for one of the best charities sport ever has known. In past years the East-West game has turned in close to half a million dollars for a worthy charity fund, and tomorrow’s collection will add substantially to this total. There have been more than a few football luminaries before in these East-West scrimmages. But I doubt that any past intersectional game ever has brought together as many all-America entries. Almost every nationally known star in the senior field will be on hand when the firing | but at New Orleans, where Fordhnm; opens. Lots of Arguments Due to Be Settled More than a few arguments will be settled, one way or another. For example, the Far West seems to have the idea that Chub Pabody of Har- vard may not be quite the whirlwind suggested. ¥ Also, the East and Midwest would like to see how Bob Reinhard of California ccmpares with such tackles as Alf Bauman of Northwestern and Srnie Blandin of Tulane. Easterners and Midwesterners, heard a lot about Frankie Albert of Stan watching his individual performance against such Easlem members as Bruce Smith and Bob Westfall. The Far West is fairly sure that Bobby Robertson of U. S. C. will be the best blocking back on the fl_eld. The East is waiting to be shown. And the South more than is willing to put its faith in Bill Dudley of Virginia. Midwest and Texas Sources of Much Strength The Midwest should furnish a good part of Eastern strength. This list will include Bruce Smith and big Urban Odson of Minnesota, Bernie Crimmins of Notre Dame, Westfall and Bob Ingalls of Michigan. It {sn’t likely any of these will be outclassd. A good part of the Far Western strencth will come from Texas, as the West Coast was just a bit below its normai average in superior talent through the last campaign. Texas always is replete with football stars who can bring their supply of trouble to any given port. A big part of the Far Western offense will be in Frankie Albert’s hands—especially his passing hand. He will have much more material with which to work than he had at Stanford last fall with Standlee and Gallarneau missing and Kmetovic below par physically in several big games. Albert is a fine workman if you give him the needed tools. The Stanford star will give the Eastern side more than a few headaches. all from the Eastern side, have ford. They all are interested in Peabody Crimmins Guard Combination Hard to Match One of the main strong points of the East will be the Peabody- Crimmins combination at the guard® positions. These are two aggressive, active young men who won't be bottled or throttled aften. They have the speed needed for a high-class guard. It will be difficult for the West to match this pair in speed, although the West here will have the call in weight. The tackle battle will be another thriller, or at least it should be with such entries as Odson, Blandin and Reinhard around. Reinhard is the more versatile entry with his ability to kick and receive passes if needed in this capacity. 1t isn't often that any backfield has such & combination as Bruce Smith and Bob Westfall of Minnesota and Michigan working together. Smith is good in any capacity—runner, passer and kicker. But Westfall can make a good back appear even better with his ability to fake, to handle the ball, to spin, and travel with so much combined power and speed. Westfall is one of the great fullbacks of many years. He almost 13 eertain to be one of the day’s individual stars. The East-West game largely is a medley proposition where the indi- vidua] naturally ranges over team play. There isn't time enough to weld 80 many systems into any one. So each college and each home com- munity always is interested more thanfightly in the showing of its prize entry. There is no better spot in which to figure out comparative values, with the stars from every section thrown together in a man-to-man test.

In manufacturing their upset, the |lowly rated Oregon Staters scored |first and never permitted the vaunted Duke squad to get ahead, | much to the dismay of the 56,000 | damp spectators who jammed their way into the stadium built to hold but 34,000.

Texas Ags Waste Effort. i Alabama used the minimum of effort in turning back the Cadets of Texas A. and M, collecting its four touchdowns while gaining only 75 yards by rushing and passing while | registering but a lone first down. The Texans, who could get only three touchdowns, gained 309 yards and 13 first downs. The Tide's success was a tribute | to Jimmy Nelson, their ace back, who scampered 72 yards on a punt | return and later registered from 21 yards out.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 32— against a tired defense brought about Lane College’s 13-0 downfall in the first Negro Flower Bowl foot- ball game yesterday, flashy runs setting up both of the Johnson C. Smith's touchdowns. Powell returned a punt 43 yards to arrange the trappings for the first score late in the final period. He planted the ball on the 3-yard stripe and “Choo Choo” Johnson plunged over for the touchdown. “Spider” Webb's 20-yard gallop started the Golden Bulls on their way to another 6-pointer imme- diately after that. With the ball on the 34-yard stripe Powell passed to Muldron on the 9 and Webb then went around end for the marker. pull within a point of the leading Johnstown Bluebirds.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2—Football fans who attend the game between the Chicago Bears and the National League All-Stars for Navy relief Sunday won't be alone in their con- tributions to the gate. Checks amounting to more than $300 have been received at Naval Relief Society headquarters in the past few days. Officials say most of the letters contain checks of $1 to $5 and are from persons in the Middle and Far West who could not see the game. Coaches Find Fun With All-Stars By the Associated Press. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.—Ber- nie Bierman of Minnesota, co- coach of the Eastern All-Stars in tomorrow’s Shrine game, says he likes all-star coaching. “You can try out all the plays which were pulled on you during the fall” he says, “or plays you couldn't use because you didn't have the players.” Coach Biff Jones of the West team calls his colleague, Babe Hollingberry, “the Nick Altrock of football” and declares Babe's sideline antics are worth extra admission. “I was going to bring him to town,” Jones told New Orleans Quarterback Clubbers, “but I thought we'd better not unveil him before the game.” T By the Associated Press. NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.—Little Jerry Glynn says the East will win—and that ought to tell most people where to put the blue chips in tomorrow’s 17th annual Shrine East-West charity all-star football game. Jerry, a 14-year-old kid who appears no bigger than a minute, is the East’s self-appointed mas- cot.

That first afternoon he learned all the \names, weights, positions and schools of the all-star squadmen, and now is a walking encyclopedia of who's who and what's what with the team. “The West team?” he snorts, “whatta they got?

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 2—Louisiana College won yesterday's Orchid Bowl game from the University offMex- from south of the border covered itself with glory in defeat. Louisiana, unable to cash in on its superior weight, couldn't crack Mexico's doughty line and needed a fourth-period pass from Townsend to Taylor, who ran 40 yards, to get the. game-clinching touchdown. Campbhell's 20-yard fleld goal in the third period broke the ice for the victors. Mexico's aerial game failed to click as expected or it might have been even more troublesome for the Louisianians, but its line was more than a match for the highly re- garded United States eleven.

The score was tied 7-7 when Nel- son started to move and the Aggies never could catch up. An estimated 38,000 saw the sixth annual Cotton Bowl tilt, the first time & Southwest Conference team ever lost in the Dallas post-season clash. The Aggies rolled up 194 yards in the air, but Alabama intercepted seven A. and M. passes and tried seven of their own, completing only one for 16 yards, but that led to the touchdown that brought Ala- bama even with the Aggies in the second period of the riotous game. Aggies Score Near Finish. Nelson led the scoring parade with 13 points—two touchdowns and & point afterward—while Russ Craft pitched in with one touchdown, All- America Holt Rast another and George Hecht kicked a 22-yard fleld goal and one point after touch- down.
