BY HARRY GRAYSON _ Sports Editor NEA Service PASADENA — This veautiful little city’s annual Tournament of Roses ‘football game on New Year's Day no longer is the single final {lourish in the vast network of intersectional engagements. This winter its offering, Stanford and Alabama, is being copied in two other centers on the same afternoon., There is to be the Sugar Powl tidbit featuring Tulane and Temple, of Philadelphia, in New Or leans. and a contest between Bucknell, of Lewisburg, Fa., and Miami in the Miami Orange Bowl. The nation’s interest will bg cen- ¢ oo o e e oo tered on the mzeting of Stanford and Alabama in the Pasadena Rose Bowl, however. Not only does the b'p show out here in the golden west bring to gether tws of the most powerful creations in the country, but the game has become a classic despite the sevére criticism of college fac ulties in the east an 3 m'd-west. Tournament of Roses officials, by virtually turning their production over to the Facific Coast Intercol legiats - - - made hesitant enstern and * mid-western schools like it. Where thg Tournament of Roses people on ~* '-~-* two occasions ex perienced great difficulty in obtain ing an opponent for the far west ern champion, eastern, mid-west ern, southern and southwestern schools now eagerly seek the Ros¢ Bowl invitation and to share rich gate receipts. < Chance Was All Alabama Needed Little Washington and Jefferson was given the opportunity to hold one of the late Andy Smith’s Cali fornia wonder teams to a scoreless tie on January 1, 1922, only because no other squad with a record to speak of was available, That also wag the reason why - Alabama, on January 1, 1926, ob jtalned the chance to do more to Ibrmg about nation-widé recogni tion of Dixie football than any ruﬁiet" outft ever developed below the Mason-Dixon line. That edi ' tion of the Crimson Tide came from Ibehind to edge out the rénowned George Wilson and an up-and-do ing Washington machine, 20-19, in one of the most thrilling wars ever VAP "'US WIRW SSSVISY VEAS SSSTatgy VW EWRTY., WX We waged on a gridiron é Objecting inétitutiong then offer e¢d the same argument that the re maining die hards advance now Thumbs were down on post-season skirmishes. After all, that is the only argument that colleges which commercialize football have to offe) when a ecivic organization attempts to cut in on their business. What was intended to be an east versus west series—everything the other side of the Missisippi was ‘way back east to the good people out here then—was linaugurated with a 49-0 Michigan victory over Stanford with the birth of the year 1902. That was Fielding H. Yost's first season as coach of the Wol verines, . whose lineup included Willie Heston and Dan McGugin.

Sports editors, participating in the Associated Press annual poll, Enoted also the wholesale drift of ~amateur tennis siars into the pro f:ssional ranks and the return to almost boom time normalcyfrgate receipts for all major spofts ex cept profassional boxing. Listed in order of their impor | tance these are the principal sports trends of the year: . Professional football boom, more “open” attack in college football, revival of major and minor league baseball, decline in professional boxing, geéneral impetus in all pro sports, amateur-to-pro trend, es | pecially in tennis and increase of | horse racing interest. | The observers also took note of | the decision to try out night base | ball in the National League, in | crease in soft ball and golf* com \nd itian, the rise of the soutk | west as a college football power | and the srowing interest in ama : teur boxing.
