ROSE BOWL CHOICE
T 0 BE NOVEMBER 29
Stanford-California Game
This Week Will Defi
~ nitely Decide Team
LOS ANGELES — (#) — While
the annual California-Stanford grid
classic at Palo Alto Saturday in
all probability will decide which
team represents the west in the
Rose Bowl game, official+announ
cement will not come until Nove
ember 29,
This was the statement today
from the office of Prof. Hugh C.
Willett, chairman of the Pacific
Coalst conference. s .
At the same ‘time, the faculty
representative from Southern Cali
fornia made it plain that there was
no rule of any sort which bound
the team selected to confine its
search for a suitable opponent to
civen geographical boundaries.
Asked whether Southern Method
ist or Texag Christian, two un
defeated teams in the Southwest
conference, were eligible because
as their location, Professor Willett
said:
“Certainly Southern Methodist
or any other team in the South-l
west Conference could be selected
if the team awarded the Rose Bowl
right by the Pacific Coast conter-‘
ence sq, decided.” _ . |
“Professor “Wilfeft adfiitted that
if California won from Stanford
Saturday to keep its record per
fect, the vote on selecting the
Wiest's representative would be a
matter of formality.
“If Stanford wins,” he explain
ed, “then the vote might give Cali
fornia, Standard, or U. C. oA
the honor, depending entirely on
how the respective members look
upon the defeats suffered by each
of the three schoolg and their com
parative records.”

YER 10 SCHEDULE
Coach Gardner’s Team to
Open Season Next Friday
In Winterville
. By JACK REID
After seeing his regulars turn in
another of a series of bad perfor
fances in a 'ong scl mmage, Coach
Sam Gardner, Athens High basket
iball mentor, last night released
the hoardest cage schedule in the
what should prove to be just about
history of Athens High.
' Invidihg Winterville, the Red
and White edition will take the
first step toward opening the
tough seventeen-game slate TFri
day night, and on the following
evening will play its second gamec
'at Union Point.
These 170 games will be the only
- ones plaved bhefore the football
rtoam adjourns for the year, and
leaves (‘oach Gardner with a’host
] of new material to work with, in
cluding Robert Hodgson, Rudy
Guest, Jack McDonald, Lee Secrest,
Marion Wilkes, Grover Presnell,
and others.
First Home Game
The home season will be opened
on December- 6 with Comer playing
here ana on December 13 Athens
will play its final supposedly
“easy” game of the year, against
' Winterville. |
! G. M. A., and Richmond Acad
| emy of Augusta head the new
' schools added to the 1935-36 slate,
lund the meetings with these schools
will probably be about the hard
| est games on schedule.
! Watkinsville, Hartwell, Jeffér
gson and Coipért are quintets of
{no little strength, and should
sause the Red and White hoopsters
plenty of trouble before the sea
son is complted.
Tough Spot
The worst spot in the Athens
schedule is found on January 30
and 31, and 31, and February I.}
On these three successive days, |
Thursday, Friday and Saturday,
the Maroons are scheduled to face
G. M. A. and Richmond Acade-“
my here, and Hartwell in Hartwell |
Back to yesterday's practice, the‘
first string, although showing n“
little improvement over last week's‘
form, was still far from whatl
would be called good. * |
The varsity should, however,
round back in real form before‘
‘Friday night's opening game, and
must be giveh a decided edge ove:
‘hoth Winterville end Union Point.
The Athens &nd Winterville girls
will pay a prelimary game, which
will start at 7 o'clock. Admission
to the doubleheader will be 10
and 20 cents.
Head Quintet
Heading the Red and White
quintet will probably be Harold
Chandler and Robert Horne,
speedy forwfrds. Both boys are
outstanding offensive players, and
should lead the Athens scorers.
Raymond Mitchell and Jimmy
Hudson, guards, are hoth capable
defensive men, and are good
enough to add quite a bit of of
fensive punch if needed.
.The schedule releq,sred last night
by Coach Gardner follows: °

| APPEAL DENIED
. NEW YORK — (®) — President
‘}Ruusevelt has denie@ the appeal of
ithe Knightg of Columbus for an in
vestigation of religious “persecu-
Etion" in Mexico, with the result
[that the Catholic order planned
Monday to ecarry its cause to the
’publi(*.
In a letter to Martin C. Carmody,
supreme Knight of the Order, the
