85,000 Watch Panthers End Jinx i n West
Coach Sutherland's Tricks| Defeat Washington, 21-0 | In Grid Classic. |
en By HENRY SUPER United Press Staff Correspondent PASADENA. Cal, Jan. 2.—Pittsburgh’s Rose Bowl jinx is ended. The Golden Panthers, eager to wipe outa string of three defeats of former years, finally brought victory to Pittsburgh yesterday with a crushing 21-0 triumph over Washington’s Huskies. These youngsters in the Blue and Gold uniforms used power and trickery to score three touchdowns that gave them the most command--ing Rose Bowl victory since 1930, when Southern California defeated another Pitt team, 35-0, Ground Attack Clicks 8.8.»
It was the memory of previous defeats, a vow to hit back at those who criticized Pittsburgh’s selection for the game, and a devastating ground attack that clicked when needed, that enabled the Easterr. inaders to thrash the 1936 champions of the Pacific Coast. . The victory was an upset—for none thought that either team would win by such a margin. But Pitt, before a crowd of 87,000 —largest ever to see a Rose Bowl game — struck twice with power plays. And then, early in the final session as Washington's famed passing attack began to click, the Panthers sewed up the ball game when Rill Daddio, 180-pound end from Meadville, Pa., intercepted a lateral pass and scooted 65 yards for |a | touchdown. | bag Daddio Pitt’s Star | It was Daddio, a tower of strength on offense and defense, who was re-} sponsible for breaking up Washington’s attack. He played 54 minutes of bang-up football—many of which ; were spent gamboling in the husky father and two or three children, backfield. a-minute-men.” ' And it was Frank Patrick, smash- 2.0808 ing fullback frecm East Chicago, | Ind.; little Bobby La Rue of Greens- | burg, Pa. and Marshall (Biggie) Goldberg, sensational West Virginia sophomore, who lugged the ball 8.82.8 through the Washington line. A clever bit of strategy on the part of Coach Jock Sutherland prevented Goldberg from doing much ball carrying. He used an offense that featured Goldberg in the role of interference—and Marshall, who had gained nation-wide fame as a runner, covered himself with glory. He led the charges that carried Patrick and Larue deep into enemy territory. Patrick had the honor of a ul. scoring the touchdowns, one each in the first and third periods. But it was Goldberg who cleared the way.
Three Other Threats
The score hardly tells the story of the game, for three other times i Pittsburgh was within scoring dis- Boule tance, once when the Panther second string had the pigskin on Washington’s seven-yard line as the game ended. Washington’s best bid for a score -, came in the second period when it passed to Pitt’s 19 only to lose the ball on downs. Haines, in the - clear, dropped a pass four yards from home—and that muff apparently broke the Huskies’ hearts. They struck back in the fourth ‘period when three long passes carried them from their own 1ll-yard + line to the Panther’s 35. But it was there that Daddio stopped the | threat with his touchdown run.

Texas Christian Beats Marquette
By United Press - DALLAS, Tex. Jan. 2. — Texas football fans today were positive their section still is tops in the wideopen razzle-dazzle type of football after watching the Texas Christian eleven defeat Marquette, 16 to 6, in yesterday's Cotton Bowl game. * The heralded aerial duel between ‘Sammy Baugh, T.C. U.sall-America quarterback, and Ray Buivid, Marquette’s pass-throwing star, failed to materialize. Baugh resorted to the air seldom and Buivid was prevented from doing much passing by the fast-charging Christian linesmen who broke through to upset the pass plays before they could be launched. It was L. D. Meyer, Christian end, wno held the spotlight as he scored all of his team’s points. He got a field goal, two touchdowns and a . conversion. While the Texans concentrated on smearing Buivid, his team mate, Art Guepe, got away on a 60-yard touchdown run that provided Marquette’s only counter. He made the run on a punt return, with Buivid's blocking a big factor in clearing the way for him.

Herman Deupree Succeeds W. W. Winslow as Head Of Association.
By BERNARD HARMON The destinies of the Indianapolis bowlers are to |be in charge .of Herman Deupr during the New Year. :
Deupree, elected as president of the Indianapolis Bowling Association in its annual meeting Nov. 8, took over his new duties yesterday. He succeeds Walker W. Winslow, who because of the volume of extra work brought about in staging the annual A. B. .C. tournament in Indianapolis last spring, had served for a two-year term.
The new leader was one of the main cogs in the vast machine set up by local pinmen two years ago when they decided to make their successful bid for the 1936 world’s championship event. Deupree, as publicity director of the local A. B.C. Tournament Corp., which staged the huge event, turned in a splendid job and received the plaudits of tenpin followers from all parts of the nation for his great work. Other 1937 officers who took over the reins along with Deupree were: Lester P. Koelling, Ted Seiner, Harry Pearce and Harold Ruschaupt, vice presidents; Norman Hamilton, secretary-treasurer and Clarence Mack, Percy Henry, Wilbur Durbin and Elmer Lueke, executive committeeman. Hamilton has held -his secretarial post for a number of years and was unanimotisly elected to eontinue his duties through 1937. The city association during the present season has a membership of more than 100 leagues, the most successful representation since its organization.

Steele pounded Jories hard to the body, forced him to drop his guard to cover his aching sides, then shifted his attack to the challenger’s head in the seventh round. One blazing right to the jaw sent Jones flying to the canvas for a count of three. Steele raced after the surprised Gorilla, but the bell cut him short in half a minute. The last three rounds brought out all the defensive skill that helped made the Akron, O. Negro National Boxing Association champion in 1932. Steele battered him at will,
but failed to reach a vulnerable spot. |
Steele weighed 157 for his first
title defense, Jones scaled 153. Freddie Seeks Cash
“Freddie will defend his title just as often as. he can make someé money,” - said Dave Miller, Steele's manager. “He and Risko should draw in New York and we'd be glad
| to go into Pittsburgh to meet Yarosz
in his home town.” . The gate for Steele’s first venture east of the Rockies was a disap pointment. Promoter Joe Sweitzer announced 5700 fans paid approximately $15,000 to witness the bout. Steele’s guar antee was to be $20,000. The fight was marked from the
start by bickering between the Wise .
consin Athletic Commission and the National Boxing Association. N. B. A finally agreed to lift an old suse pension against Jones after the Wise consin body insisted on staging the fight regardless of his status.
