With the University of Southern California handing the University of Pittsburgh the worst drubbing ever given an raster!) team In u Tournament of Roses contest In Pasadena, the west climbed to the pinnacle of football leadership New Year's day. This game, which one sports writer said "looked like a cham plon practicing against a high school team." together with the other defeats handed the east, put the west on the top of the pile for l!*2!l. Os seven games in which teams from the east met elevens from the west this fall and winter, five resulted in decisive victories for west teams. Examples of what the sports writers of the evest think of the e-st insofar as football goes, follow : Tom Laird, sports editor of the San Francisco News: “The east can offer one million and one excuses, but the east can't go behind the records; and IT. F-. C's Trojans cinched the gridiron honors of these United States for the Pacific coast by smothering Pitt’s Panthers. Pitt invaded the oast with a colorful reputation. The past placed Pitt on a par with Notre D»me hut the Panthers are returning wilh a reputation full of holes. The score of 17 to 14 tells the story.” George Pertz, sports editor i/f : the Oregon Journal: “Out of seven gam s between teams of the coast and the east, the Pacific coast elevens were returned vietors in five contests. That surely is enough to convince the e::sl that the hardy westerners know something about plyaing on the grdiron.” 1 ran* at *- n mi
