£0 to Alabama. "The Huskies, beaten once and tied once, completed their entrance examination for the Bowl "game by | ‘Washington State College, 40 to 0. This one-sided victory, a great surprise to. many of the experts, gave Washington the Pacific Coast Conference title. Players and school officials today preferred to act as though they weren't sure of the Bowl bid, howCoach Jim Phelan set the
dope was that there wouldn™ be any discussion of an opponent until the Bowl committce notified the Huskies that they were inated.
Fans Pick Alabama
Fans, however, already were pick- . ing Coach Frank Thomas ‘and his . Alabama team, which | yesterday scored a 14-to0-6 victory over Vanderbilt to complete an -undefeated season. An opportunity fo accounts with the Crimson Tide was . one reason advanced to support the ~ Alabama choice, for the Southerners * have been bitter medicine for the . Pacific teams. Alabama has played in the Bowl * four times and the score is three _ victories and one tie for them. ~ Yashington had the doubtful luck of meeting’ the Tide the first time. * that was in 1926, and Alabama won, . 90 to 19. The Tide rolled back for "another shot at the West's best the next year and got a 7-to-7 tie with - Stanford. : Beat Cougars
Four years later the team from Tuscaloosa showed up again and left Washington State College. on the ghort end of a 24-to-0 count. In 1935 Dixie Howell and his mates were too much for Stanford, and Alabama had its third victory—29 to 13. Washington’s lone setback this year was to Minnesota jin (the 3éason’s opener. Later Stanford got a 14-10-14 tie. The rest of the games were victories with yesterday's 40- - 10-0 romp the high spot | because ‘the State eleven was believed by many to have a good chance to upset the Huskies and moved into a tie for conference top honors.,|

BY MAX RIDDLE NEA Service Turf Editor - NEW YORK, Nov. 27. — Reaping Reward, king of the -juveniles! Wand, queen of the 2-year-olds!
Granville, 3-year-old: ruler and king of the turf in all-age competition. That’s the writer's answer to the current poll of 500 turf writers and sports editors being taken by a national turf magazine. - While we make no statement that our choices are above improvement, we do believe "there are plenty of reasons for such selections. Consider the juvenile picks. It is quite difficult to make 2-year-old selections, because of the different angles to be considered. Juveniles aren’t really great race horses, but merely great juveniles. They must prove themselves when they get out of the baby class before they are great race horses.
Examples of Past
As cases in point, remember Red Rain, Balladier, Chance Sun, Tob Flight, Morvich, Sensation, and a host of others. They all were of highest class as junior performers, but failed as 3-year-olds. Sensation didn’t stay sound. Neither did Morvich. Top Flight simply could not maintain her supremacy over the colts in her second year on the turf. In judging the colts we rate Reaping Reward from the Milky Way Farms of Mrs. F. C. Mars first; J. H.
.Loucheim’s Pompoon second, and
Samuel D. Riddle’s ‘War Admiral

. It is hard to say that Reaping |
Reward was not ‘the best of the year. ‘He certainly was the best in the fall, and that’s our angle. He beat Pompoon, victor in the Futurity and a supposed ‘standout, and whipped Privileged in the Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes. Pompoon has little excuse for the two defeats he suffered this year. He wasn’t supposed to be tightened up at Saratoga when: No Sir beat him, yet his time trials showed him making spectacular training efforts. War Admiral was something of an in-and-outer, showing great speed on occasions. He was beaten several times and for no Bpparelt reasons.
On Blood Lines
Reaping Reward seems to be the horse with the best potential 3-year-old quality. The son of Sickle may be cut out to be 2 distance horse, even though his bioodlines make him look like a sprinter.- In tracing bloodlines, War Admiral and Pompoon get another black ball. : The latter is by Pompey, and. his blood does not usually stay. War Admiral, by Man O’ War, should. be. a stayer, but Jean Bart wasn’t, and ‘we are a little afraid he may: fot be able Lo carry ‘on that: dazzling speed of

There is no question but that Granville was the best of the 3-year-olds. Bold Venture would get second call, even though on the shelf most o. the year. It's not certain whether Granville could beat the bold one in a dual race, but the former gains top honors because he stayed sound
