Show SOUTH CACHE COURIER '$ 6,000,000 Film 'T'HIS has been an odd and un-- t guessable season in college football, outside of Army and Notre Dame, but its greatest mystery moves in the direction of the Rose Bowl, the Pacific Coast conference and the Big Nine. Here we have something that passes all CROSS TOWN Bv Roland Co understanding. It p' was perhaps a trifle in the first place to think that the Big Nine would pass up the $100,000 Grantland Rice or more 11 could co1 lect from the coming Rose Bowl game and give Army its proper chance to meet the wishes of both U.C.L.A., Southern California, the er$re west coast and practically 100 per cent of this countrys football lovers. The Big Nines only interest was in $100,000. This can be understood in a great game that is getting to be more and more commercial, with sportsmanship now a mere sideline. The Big Nine is not alone in this commercial angle, although it is one of the leaders. But what we cant understand is how the Pacific Coast conference suddenly turned and passed over the Rose Bowl to Big Nine control. For many years the Rose Bowl delegation has been trying to get the Big Nine in line. foolish This guy is always givin me hot stock market tips. Last week I could have lost about 5,000 bucks!" A MUTT AND JEFF LITTLE REGGIE By Bud Fisher By Margarita Sudden Change Year after year the Big Nine or the Big Ten has handed the Pacific Coast conference the dead eye and the frozen hand. It has completely ignored the Far West. Apparently the Big Nine, awaking suddenly to $100,000 revenue which had been going to southern teams, most of them also commercialized, had a startling change of heart. The Big Nine has decided to shut off this revenue from southern teams in the honest belief that such teams were using this important cash to "take care" of players, many of them from the Midwest. But the mystery is this why should the Pacific Coast conference suddenly decide to turn over the running of the Rose Bowl to the Big d Nine, after so many years of action? Why should the strong Pacific Coast turn yellow? Every one who follows football knows that Army should have been the only possible selection a great team, playing its final game, keen to go the team both V.C.L.A. and Southern California wanted. With this chance to regain its bowl leadership, why should the Pacific Coast conference suddenly decide to make this just another intersectional game, secondary once more to the Sugar Bowl as far as class and general interest go? The most expensive motion picture ever made was Wilson, released in 1944, whose production it and advertising amounted to more f than $6,000,000, says Colliers. The cost was due largely to many spectacular scenes, one being the 1912 Democratic convention in which the lighting consumed enough power to service a f city the size of Lansing, Mich. i REGLAR FELLERS By Gene Byrnes But this isnt the most baffling arrangement. point of the five-yeIn the future the Pacific Coast conference will enter its Far West champion. The Big Nine will play its champion the first year but, if this champion repeats, another team will be named. This may be the second or third Big Nine entry. It wont be a champion who repeats. And later on the Big Nine will select the opponent to face the Pacific Coast conference champion from the Midwest or from the East or from anywhere else. This gives the Big Nine control of the Rose Bowl game, a game the Pacific Coast conference started and developed and placed on top. The Big Nine, hostile to the Souths system of paying or recruiting football players, hostile to fhe South's financial benefit from bow) games, now becomes the Souths greatest benefactor. From now on the Sugar Bowl, the Cotton Bow) and the Orange Bowl will benefit considerably from the recent Rose Bowl action.

Then there was the final game ol the last world series where, in the closing two innings of the seventh contest, the Cardinals and the Red Sox , with slim Harry Brecheen called on for the third stand, put on a show that came near tearing the human pulse out by the roots. The two final thrills belonged to the last two football games I saw: contest The Pennsylvania-Cornel- l and the Army-Nav- y game.
