We were in good shape, but I noticed pur linemen beginning to weaken toward the end. I was surprised that it didn't happen sooner, for they were up against heavy odds during the entire game. I thought that Griffith was their best back, and that Ernie Smith was their best lineman. He certainly lived up to every thing that had been said about That seemed to be the way it was all day.

We weren't playing bad football, but Southern California wasn't making any mistakes or missing any assignments. When Griffith intercepted my pass in the third quarter and tore back through our scattered line it looked like it was" all over, but our line made one of the greatest defensive stands I have All.

3 Well it Is going to be hard to explain to' the folks back In Pittsburgh and the rest of the East that we weren as bad as the score indicated, so I not going to try too hard to try to "write off- yesterday's 35-0 licking. Southern California had a great ever witnessed, only to have that fumble ruin things again. I can't give too much credit to our linemen, but I want to try it, anyway, for Southern California got enough credit out of winning. I was in a position to see how they played, and what a terrific battle they put up. Paul Cuba and Ted Dailey and the rest of them weren't getting outfoxed or outcharged, but they were simply They did their best, and time after time just missed the U.

S. C. backs in their own baekfield. Doc Hartwig spent half the afternoon there, but just couldn't make connections, Not even the most partisan Trojan fan could find any fault with Muggsy Skladany, who stood off everything that was thrown against him. It was tough to see those touch team, a truly championship eleven, but honestly I dont think that It was 35 points stronger than we were.

Mike Sebastian covered Ford Palmer as well as any pass receiver was ever covered on the first touchdown, and when I saw them go up for the ball I started out to the 20-yard line, figuring that it would be grounded. But It wasn't, although it wasn't Mike's fault, and don't forget that. 1 thought we had an even chance to win. and when the score was 14-0 I still thought that we could come for the boys were talking It up in the huddle and rarin to go. But every time we got under way something happened, and we would be too busy trying to fight off those big U.

S. C. linemen to do any scoring ourselves. i It was a hard fight out there on the field, but there wasn't a downs come one after the other in the last two quarters, and there seemed that there was nothing we could do about it. It looked like we were helping them, I guess, the way we handed them the bail on fumbles two times, and the third time on a blocked punt.

It is pretty hard to criticize our i offense when it had to get under way from inside our 20-yard line all afternoon. We were set for this game and I Southern Calif ornia Pushes Pitt Right Out of the Way in Rose Bowl Football Game Eastern Association for Discovery of What the Devil Happened to Pitt Meets By CHESTER L.

Every avenue of approach to the question at hand led the association members up to an unsurmountable wall on which was inscribed: Southern California 35. The Association found it impossible to laugh this off, in fact, it was difficult to laugh, or even smile in the face of the evidence at hand. After the chairman had called the meeting to order, it was unanimously voted to award the national football championship to the Irojans, with it going an amendment which reason some thing like this: "The Association reserves the right to toss the details of sj i wXs lK.

There was no effort to discount the sweeping power of Southern Call fornia, but here in the East, where there is more familiarity with the te i nacity of the Panthers, there must be a feeling in certain quarters that something or other got into the blood of the Sutherlanders along toward the finish and sapped their fight.

In November, that would not have happened. Grant couldn't have taken Richmond by more than seven points through the Gold and Blue line that fought Army, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Nebraska and Stanford to a standstill.

Southern California Attack Gained New Vigor in the Last Half THE PROPONENTS of the handicap of bucking the drowsy Southern California temperature will have an inning as an aftermath of the game. They can point to the stout defense the Panthers put up throughout the first half, combine with that the fact that the Trojans did not switch their tactics the slightest as the battle progressed and deduct from this the plausible theory that it was the sudden sagging of the Western Pennsylvanians rather than an improvement in the vigor of the Southern California attack which finally overwhelmed the the visitors. When a certain play a cutback, for instance is consistently stopped for 30 minutes and then begins to click for long gains the only conclusion which may be drawn is that the means of stopping it have been withdrawn. That happened to Pitt, and the lone mystery is what occurred to bring it about.

3 The great football juggernaut of theUniversity of Southern California today claimed its second consecutive national championship, boasted an unbroken string of 20 victories and pointed to a record of having won four Tournament of Roses games in as many starts. These honors were predicated on the 35 to 0 walloping the Trojans' dealt in the annual Rose stole the show from the galaxy otf- the first play after Pitt had taken the ball on downs only a few strides from the goal line was the factor which disheartened the team and made it prey to the revitalized drives of its opponents. That may be true, but it was not charasteristic of the Panthers the past fall that they lost their nerve easily. If it had been, there would have been no trip to Pasadena, for if there ever was a team that was adept at grabbing at its boot straps arid literally hauling itself out of trouble, that team was Pitt. they'll have to uncover another explanation.

Bowl game to the previously unbeaten Pittsburgh team, rated one of the strongest in the country. The game was the. most decisive in Tournament history, exceeding even Southern California's 47 to 14 victory over Pitt in 'Jhe 1930 contest. Pitt really seemed not so much outclassed as the score indicated, but Southern California played inspired football, scoring on sheer power when that was necessary and meantime of every bob- victories, having beaten Penn State in 1924, Pitt in 1930 and Tulane in 1932. As the Trojans thus earned the best record of any Rose Bowl competitor, the defeat gave Pitt the worst record three defeats in as many games.

Pitt lost to Stanford In 1928 and to Southern California in 1930. AFTER THAT, there isn't much left that is hard to explain. A man-for-man weight advantage of 12 pounds had something to ilo with it, although lighter teams have won before. Troy didn't seem to be getting far for all its poundage through the first two periods, and it is fairly conservative to say that the Pitt players appeared to be standing up as well as their rivals for at least two-thirds of the game. The climate, then? Old Joe Thermometer has come out of hiding so often in the past to start rumpuses that the venerable gentleman is threadbare and emaciated, but there were evidences that he may have played a part in the Pasadena touchdown party.

"Howard Jones," Sutherland, said, "undoubtedly has a team that rates as the national champions. It is a powerful eleven, versatile and fast. I don't think, however, the one-sided score indicates the real strength of our team. -Most devastating to our hopes were the reverses by Ray Sparling, which always gained ground for Southern California at crucial moments, and the bad breaks that we got in the third quarter.

Trojan Power Did It "The Trojans really had too much power for us and the players who turned on this power were Griffith, Sparling, Ernie Smith and Aaron Rosenberg. "Charles Hartwig, Joe Skladany and Warren Heller played very well for us." Coach Jones had nothing but praise for his eleven. J7 5 .3.17 41 J. 4 Fast mr 7 it MartineV-Zorilla. f.onya.

Rentner Trojans Win "Cup As Grid Champs Mr. Elmer Layden's Remarks Sound Very Convincing tASH-JEFP rushed from Washington, to the Coast in 1921, reached Pasadena two days before the game, and held California to a scoreless tie without making a single substitution. Ohio State and Pitt ran into extremely warm weather, whereas the Presidents played on a cool day. Such things further confuse those who try to cite various facts to prove their theories. Perhaps it will always remain an enigma.

In view of what happened, a remark made by Coach Elmer Layden of Duquesne recently becomes significant. He quoted the late Knute Rockne as saying that a team that went from the East to the Coast dur-in" the regular season played under a 25 per cent less handicap than one which made the trip as a post-campaign venture. The Association for the Discovery of What the Devil Happened to Pitt was willing to believe Mr. Layden today. Kid Gleason, of Baseball's Colorful Old Guard, Dies picked up seven yards around end and then Berry passed to Fencl, Special to The Pittsburgh Press Northwestern end, lor the score.

Jack Manders, Minnesota fullback, pass and scooted the necessary two yards to the goal. This resulted after Troy got possession of the ball through a Pitt fumble on the Pitt 7. Warburton Scores Twice In the fourth quarter Warburton climaxed a 63-yard Southern California drive, going over Ernie Smith's tackle from the one-yard line. Warburton scored a few plays later on a 10-yard dash after taking a lateral pass from Clark. A Pitt fumble gave the Trojans the opportunity for that score.

A blocked Pitt punt on the 15-yard line led to the last score. Southern California recovered and ran quickly to the one-yard line. From there Dick Barber, substitute fullback and intercollegiate broad jump champion, crashed across. Southern California has not lost a game or been tied since St. Mary's took the opening game of the 1931 season.

It ran to four its Rose Bowl tackle, and Warren Heller, Panther halfback, both of whom were selected on The United Press and several other Ail-American teams, were the standouts. It was through holes opened by Smith that Trojan backs cantered to their greatest gains on running plays, while Pitt made no yardage over his position. Meantime he place-kicked for the point after touchdown four times in as many tries. Heller left the field late in the final quarter, a bruised but unbeaten Ail-American, carrying with him a stirring ovation from the 84,000 spectators in tribute to his great defensive work and his fine ball carrying-Homer Griffith, Irvine Warburton and Gordon Clark traveled many yards for Southern California, mostly over Smith's tackle position.
