TUESDAY MORNING. JANUARY 3, ACTION PHOTOS SHOW HOW TROJANS SWAMPED PANTHERS (Continued from Page One) No eastern team in the past took the game more seriously. All indications pointed toward Pitt being ready, physically and mentally, to play its best game of an already highly successful season. Coach Howard Jones, however, had seen to it that the Trojans were not caught unawares. The result was that the game was turned into one-sided rout for the second Gordie Clark of South Pasadena.

Almost all of the Trojan regulars left the field, but the end was not yet. U. S. C. got the ball on the fifteen-yard line by blocking Hogans punt, and Gar Mathews, another South Pasadena youth, directed the attack that led in Dick Barber scoring.

Fifty thousand people saw the East take a first-quarter lead when Bart Viviano of Cornell crossed the goal after dazzling passes had advanced the ball from mid-field.

Fend received a pass from Berry for the East's final touchdown in the last period. Manders added the extra point with a placekick. It was Schaldachs brilliant open-field running and Koys plunges at the line that gave victory to the JVest.

East Threatens In the final quarter, the East fought desperately to overcome the Wests advantage. Berry passed to Fend, 21 yards, for a touchdown. Manders place-kicked the extra point. Only one point behind, the East continued its battle, but Schalbach cinched victory for the West when he took Berrys punt on the forty-yard line and dashed to the seven-yard mark.

Capitalize Breaks Three times, serious breaks of the game were turned into Trojan 01 ur team- 1 Howard Jones was all smiles PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 2. (U.R) William (Kid) Gleason, veteran baseball player and former manager of the Chicago White Sox, died at his home here tonight of heart disease.

Gleason, who was 67 years old. had been ill for about a year. He was one of the baseball greats of all time. As a player, he was first a pitcher and then a second baseman. As a manager he piloted the White Sox to an American League championship in 1919, his first season at the helm.

His last baseball job was as coach of the Philadelphia Athletics. Signed by Phillies Gleason was born in Camden, N. October 25, 1865. The Phillies signed him as a pitcher in 1888. He remained with the Phillies until 1892 when he went to the St.

Louis Cardinals. He was sold after two years to Baltimore, where he was a member of Hanlons famous old Oriole champions. In 1895 when his arm began to go back on him, Gleason, who was a good hitter, was shifted to second base, where he played until the end of his career. Goes to Giants The Kid' later played for the New York Giants and Detroit. In 1911 Gleason announced he was through and returned to run his cafe in Philadelphia.

But the late Charles A. Comiskey, owner of the White TYTtf ts a Sox. offered him a job as scout and VVlth Hears O00n coach and the Kid went back to the game. Soon he was assistant manager then manager of the Sox. Defeats Franta Nekolny YORK, Jan.

Heller Excellent The touted Heller was excellent on- defense and made some substantial gains, but his passes were ineffective. Troy players either bottled them up, or in the main they were poorly timed. Ernie Smith, huge Trojan All-American tackle, not only made good use of his size fourte.ofie'Hd shoes in kicking four goals, fully lived up to his reputation in his last game. Most of the U.

S. C. line plays were gained over his position and he was equally effective on defense. Smith, Sparling and Captain Brown are the only regulars lost to next falls Troy varsity. When they left the game the crowd gave them a big ovation, an appreciative gesture also accorded Heller.

Greatest of Teams In summing up U. S. victory over Pitt and considering its noteworthy seasonal record, it is fitting that, a badge of merit be granted to Coach Howard Jones. Nothing exceptional was expected of Troy this past season, due to the loss of so many key men of the 1931 eleven, except that the team developed would no doubt be good, a credit to the university. There was one reason for this, regardless of prospects Howard Jones.

But the canny Trojan mentor went even farther, much farther, and takes rank in the eyes of most critics as the countrys outstanding coach. Enviable Record Every team opposed by the Trojans the past season was beaten, and in most cases decisively. Only California and Washington crossed their goal line. Including the Pitt game, Troy scored 201 points to its opponents 13. Jones' players repeatedly made good on scoring opportunities when they arose.

Definitely the 1932 eleven has been a come-through team. One of the surprising things about the game was the crowd. The Bowl was filled almost to capacity, the attendance being estimated at 83.000. U. S.

C. rooters presented stunts between halves, with music supplied by Harold Roberts Trojan band and the P. J. C. band, representing Pittsburgh.

The weather was warm for the most part of the game, with the temperature dropping considerably toward its close.

Birthdays of'- fflBW By Charley Paddock JANUARY 3 Brown Thomas Though his. name is the reverse of the famous Tom Brown, of fiction, his athletic career has been even more versatile. Joseph Brown Thomas was born January 3, 1879, and was educated in England, France and the United States. He graduated from Yale University in 1903.

A star hurdler, he captained the Yale track team in his senior year, while during the next decade he was a member of the famous New Haven polo team, several times winner of the National Polo Championship. Today, Brown Thomas is famous for his fox hounds and bis yachting victories. He is the president of the Thomas Holding Corporation, and a resident of New York City. He is rated today second only to De vereux Milburn, as a senior polo player. waning in interest.

The same is true of the South. Football attendance, during the past year fell more than 50 per cent, Disch pointed out, while baseball declined a little more than 20 per cent. Baseball, he believes, is as much a college sport as football and there is need for both, working together harmoniously. Disch is. one of the nations most prominent authorities on college baseball.

Eighteen of his proteges, including the famous Bib Falk and the promising young Philadelphia Athletic third baseman, Frank Jennings, have been made the grade in major leagues. In 1927, eight members of his championship team were absorbed in organized baseball. 1933 VIEWS OF GAME Top photo shows Homer Grif- a fith, IT S.

Bad News Starts An indication of fhe impending disaster came when the game was barely under Ernie Smith kicked off for U. S. C.

Ford Palmer, U. S. C. end, and Mike Sebastian, left-handed Pitt half, were waiting. Chances of knocking it down instead of Palmer receiving it appeared decidedly to favor Sebastian, but somehow, someway, Palmer came down with it It was remarkable catch by Palmer, who simply took it away from his Pitt rival.

Ernie Smith made the first of his four successful conversions, just as the game was six minutes old, and the score was to 0. Slight Lead Seen That completed pass was just about the margin of difference between the two teams in the first half for Pitt had almost an identical scoring opportunity in the next period. The Panthers drive was the same length as U. S. C.s, made possible by a brilliant run of twenty-one yards on the part of Henry Weisenbaugh, fullback.

Heller, at this stage, made his long pass, intended for End Jack Schricker, over the goal line, but it was not as well timed as Griffiths and it fell dead. As a matter of fact, the Trojan victory was anything but assured at the half. U. S. C.

held the lead and Rose Bowl tradition has been that the team scoring first wins, but Pitt had shown itself to be dangerous. What was to come was not anticipated. Run Into Trouble The Panthers ran into trouble right after the start of the third quarter, when Griffith intercepted long pass by Heller and returned thirty yards to the Pitt thirty-two yard line. It looked as though U. S.

C. would score again with the four-yard line reached with two downs to go. Pitt linesmen charged so fiercely, however, that Griffith was thrown for a six-yard loss on one try, and on the second was too rushed to get his intended pass away. Defense Unavailing Pitts fine defensive work was unavailing, for on the next play a bad pass from center resulted in a fumble and Captain Tay Brown recovered for U. S.
