ge DAN pane (Pineh-Nitting tor Joo Williams) NEW YORK. July 31 Howard Jones, dead at 55 after having coached University of Southern California football teams for the last 16 vears. left his memorial in an achievement which has come few executives in any branch of college activity, from the president's office to the chalkmarked stadium. Jones did not merely lift the Trojans into the more resplendent company of gridiron competitors, and Keep them there He played a tremendous role in the growth of a university which once. quite frankly, was not far removed from the bush league class, While Southern California yet is ne Columbia, Harvard or Chi- | cago, it has moved into the schol. astic environs of Stanford and California Its educational advancement and physical growth may be traced In an astonishing measure to a thoroughly American | phenomenon—the moral strength and allure of a powerful football | organization operating with a continuity of success under an outstanding coach, = = IN MAKING GRIDIRON vietories the impetus to larger enrollments Sud the construction of | mare buildings.

Carl Scarborough

Among the tepnotchers entered in the dirt track racing program next Sunday afternoon at Columbus, Ind, is Carl Secarder-

ough, of Pentiac, Mich, whe has |

been participating in A. A. A races this seasen, Twenty-five | cars are entered. with other | standout drivers including Harold | Shaw of Indianapolis whe has | won six times on Hoosier tracks this season and Mike Salay of South Bend, the 190 independent

from the St. Louis Rrowns. Thev announced they had acquired him yesterday for the customary “undisclosed amount of cash.” Even if the “undisclosed amount of cash” turns out to be $339 in Confederate money, the prediction is hereby made that the Dodgers will rue the day they made the deal Not because Allen can't pitch a good game now and then. He can and he probably will. Rut he is xaown around the baseball circuit as having a quick temper an a tendency to argue with the ans.

the Flatbush fans are in a great mood for an argument right now, preferably with the first one of the Beloved Bums who looks out of the corner of his eye at them. The Beloved Bums were riding high in first place when they left beautiful Brooklyn not long ago. The Flatbush Faithful were arguing about which one of the Bums’ pitchers was going to work the opening game of the World Series. 5 Then this writing, they

second place. Already the despairing ery of “Wait till next vear” is being heard in the dark stretches of the night. If the Beloved Bums had slipped quietly into town the fans might have been willing to forgive and forget. But no! They are bringing Johnny Allen with them. What a red flag is to a bull, what David was to Goliath, what a Giant is to a Dodger—that is what Allen will be to the Flatbush faithful. They can forgive one of the Bums anything except

talking back to them. The Bums are supposed to take their booings and like ‘em. Followers of Allen's career disagree upon when and where he gave his greatest performance versus the fans. There is a sizable bloc, however, that contends he never will be able to equal the vigtuoso exhibition he delivered about 11 years ago in Jersey City, before he reached the major leagues, He haa been throwing baseballs with considerable lack of success and finally the manager decided that the grand strategy of the

game demanded his removal and the substitution of another hurler. It was a rickety old park in those days and the path that a pitcher who had just undergone bombardment had to take to the showers led past a grandstand. Allen started the last long mile that day and suddenly a paying customer suggested: “Git along, Bum.” Allen paused to debate the matter. “Dash, clamation Point,” fan.

Dash, Double Dash, Exsuggested the

“Double Dash, Colon, Dash, Dash, Unquote,” replied Allen, Soon other fans gathered around the original belligerent and the party was on. Every fan had words—and what words!—for Ale len. Fans began to gather from other sections of the park and soon nobody was watching the ball game. Allen and the fans were putting on a much better show. So that's the man the Beloved Bums are bringing home. Win or lose the pennant, it’s going to be some fun in Flatbush from now on.
