How They Split A Massacre When the Bears Went to Town in Washington MAJORS ARE BIT SLOW ON PICKUP FOR GATHERING BY ARCH WARD. Cliicato Trlbona Presi Service. DEL MONTE, Dec. Pacific Coast conference, which will open its annual meeting here tomorrow, is cleaning up an unwholesome athletic situation energetically, sanely, and swiftly. When the job is completed a year or two hence, intercollegiate sport in this organization will be conducted on as high a plane as in the Western conference and in the so-called Ivy league of the east The presi dents and faculty committees of the Coast conference universities many months ago decided the time had arrived for a curb on the intensive recruiting and subsidizing of athletics practiced at all or most of the But There Is a Hint of Action in Air.

member institutions. They engaged a middle aged, soft spoken investi gator named Edwin Atherton, who had spent eight years in the United States consular service in Italy and Bulgaria and as many years with the federal bureau of investigation, to make a survey of the irregularities in the administration of intercollegiate athletics. His work was thoro and impartial. His report, in a sense, indicted all members of the group. The 10 university presidents and their faculty boards decided to retain Atherton as commissioner of athletics, a position similar to Maj.

John L. Griffith's in the Western conference. There is one important difference, however, in the two offices. Maj. Griffith's desk serves mainly as a clearing house for conference athletics.

Atherton has been empowered to Interpret and enforce the rules of the Pacific Coast unit. Before the start of the now faded season he disqualified 11 conference athletes. There will be additions to the list in the near future. Once Atherton has ruled on the eligibility of an athlete there is no recourse from the decision until the next annual conference meeting, when 5 foSdr -W- Xl "A the faculty committee has the right to rescind his action. Atherton didn't ask for the power to rule upon eligibility when he took office.

"I would like to conduct my office in the same manner as Maj. Griffith does his, he explains. "University executives, however, felt it was for the best interests of sport within the conference for a man detached from collegiate affiliations to pass judgment upon our findings. MY ENTRANCE, REQUIREMENTS ARE THE SAME. Bill Osmanski of the Chicago Bears scoring the first of 11 touchdowns against the Redskins in Washington, yesterday.

On this play the Chicago full back ran 68 yards down the sidelines, outstripping, among others, Ed Justice, half back, and Dick Farman, guard. The Bears won, 73 to 0, and became world professional football Champions. I Associated rrcst Wircphoto.l it BLACKHAWKS GO INTO 3D PLACE; BEAT BRUINS, 3-2 ITfASHIXGTOX. D.

This is the story of the man who this afternoon directed the greatest team professional football ever has produced. It is the story of Sid Luckman, the Bears quarter back. In the welter of records in this onesided triumph by Chicago's Eears over-Washington's Redskins, compounded from 11 touchdowns for 73 points. Luekman's generalship unquestionably was the factor which smashed Washington's defenses, and maintained a steady and Irresistible attack; which eventually turned this championship battle into a rout. Fans Boo Redskin.

Not since the British sacked this city more than a 100 years ago has Washington seen such a rout. The thousands of loyal Redskins rooters, who had come to boo the Bears, stayed to roar bravos in spontaneous tribute to the incredible Chicago eleven. And finally, in resentment at the pitiful collapse of the Redskins, these fans booed the men who had been their heroes. Only Wee Willi Wilkin, Washington's giant tackle, escaped the scathing verbal chastisement. Grant that the Bears power and speed were perfection.

Grant that the behemoths in the Bears' line always outcharged their opponents, always rushed Washington's passers so that eight tosses were intercepted. But ia the first, second, and third touchdown drives Sid Luckman, an Inspired genius, maneuvered this Chicago eleven as accurately as a chess master moves his pawns and kings. Sid Picks the Weak Spots. Unerringly Luckman picked the vulnerable spots In the Washington defense. He sent Bill Osmanski racing around right end for sixty-eight yards on the third play of the gm for the first touchdown.

Osmnnskt did the running on that sixty-eight yard touchdown dash, but this Is only part of the story. 11 scored because the 10 other Bears carried out their asignments tr perfect ion. Football professors tell you every play would result in a touchdown if each of the players did just what he was supposed to do. Osman-ski's touchdown run was a perfect example of the theory. George Wilson's block which sent Ed Justice and Charlie Malone crashing together and out of the play was a spectacular offensive gem.

17 riays Another Score. After Osmanski's scoring wallop, Luckman called 17 plays that covered eighty yards and ended when he himself sneaked over from the one foot mark for the second touchdown-Then Sid ordered Joe Maniac! on another full back sweep around end a gem of running that duplicated Osmanski's sprint and the Bears led. 21 to 0. Three touchdowns in 12 minutes and 40 seconds. In this brief period Luckman and the Bears varsity had erected a barrier which the thousands realized had swept the title far beyond the Redskins' reach.

But in climax to the first half, and in brilliant exposition of his versatility, Luckman threw a touchdown pass of thirty yards to Ken Kavanaugh. Thus, the Bears led. 28 to 0, at the intermission. Luckman Sits Out Second Half. Luckman sat out the second half.

As the Bears' power rolled on to a fantastic point totaL Sid watched Bernie Masterson, Bob Snyder, and Sollie Sherman command the steam roller. It was Luekman's fortune, course, that he was in charge on the day this Chicago team reached its peak. It was the Bears greater good luck that they had Sid Luckman. Artoe will kick off for the Bears." Repetition of this announcement was chanted in derision by the crowd. Later when a Washington player was penalized fifteen yards for unnecessary roughness the throng hooted But the loudest demonstration was started in the fourth period when the loud speaker blared a special announcement for 1311 season tick CHICAGO 131.

I fblraca Trlbona frees 8errlca.l Picture en back page.) Washington. D. Dec. 8. Creatress came to the Chicago Bears tori ay, unqualified greatness that turned the world's series of professional foot-tall into a rout.

Ten Bears scored eleven and five others contributed points to an all-time National league high as an alert, relentless band of white jerseyed gridiron giants crushed a struggling Washington Redskin eleven. 73 to 0. -Oamanaki Score on Third Tlay. From the moment Bill Osmanskl broke away for sixty-eight yards and touchdown on the third play of the game, until little Harry Clark pepped thru a hole as wide as a bleacher exit for his second and the Bears' last touchdown late in the fourth period, there was no question in the minds of the 36,034 jammed into Griffith stadium that the colossus from the west, this day at least, was a superteam. With the victory, which was as humiliating to Washington as to the beloved Redskins, went the Ed Thorp trophy, emblematic of the world's- championship, and the right for the Bears to return to the Chicago All-Star game next Aucust.

Washington expected Its Redskins to win. The Redskins expected to win and battled gallantly to that end. Bears Exact Revenge In Full. But on this day neither they nor ar.y other team In the National league tad a right to be in the same park with the Bears. A 7 to 3 whipping here three weeks ago and unfavorable puclicity following that upset had infuriated the Bears.

Memory of their last playoff appearance in which they lost, 28 to 21, to the Redskins in Chicago heightened this thirst for revenge. The combination of these personal issues, the largest player pool in the eight year history of the playoff and prestige that goes with a championship, made the Bears unbeatable. They overpowered the Redskins, outsmarted them, defied them and charged on mercilessly to three touchdowns in the first period, one In the second, four in the third, and three more in the fourth. rintt Shutout for Redskins. Today's scoring avalanche had another angle, too.

It was the first time this season the Redskins had t-e-en shut out and the third game In which they had not scored in double figures. Washington entered the game as the league's scoring leader with 245 points In 11 contests to the Bears' 233 in the same number. Opponents had scored only 142 points cn the Redskins, while the Bears had yielded 152. In addition to the touchdowns by Osmarki and Clark. Hampton Pool, Clyde Turner and George McAfee carried back intercepted passes for touchdowns and Sid Luckman, Joe Maniaci.

Ken Kavanaugh, Ray and Gary FamiglietU burst over the Redskin goal in a steady procession of brilliant Individual and team efforts. The scoring was completed by Jack Manders, Phil Martinovich, Dick riasman. and Joe Stydahar, who kicked one extra point apiece; by Bob Snyder, who kicked two, and by Maniaci. who took Sollie Sherman's pass for the extra point after the 20th touchdown. Bears Tear Down Posts.

This was to be a test between the Redskins' vaunted passing attack built around Sammy Baugh, Frank Filchock and Rookie Roy Zimmerman BY IRVING VAUGHAN. The baseball folks, major league grade, were supposed to start warming up yesterday for the big annual song and dance sessions tomorrow in the Palmer House, but the preliminary was a flop. Not many of the actors showed up, much to the disappointment of a gathering of foreign and domestic journalists who had rushed to Chicago post haste in anticipation of hearing something they could pass on to their respective publics. Joe McCarthy, manager of the Yankees, late world champions, was among the early arrivals, but Joe couldn't offer even a rumor. Del Baker, manager of the Tigers, reported, but he's gagged by the American league's ban against trading with champions and couldn't talk.

Also present were Manager Casey Stengel and Secretary John Quinn of the Boston Bees, both acting as if they might do some dealing when they catch up with the right party. Ambassador Clarence Rowland also was performing as If the Cubs might be ready to leap at another swap. Expect Offer for Pitcher. The sly looks in the eyes of Stengel and Quinn led to a suspicion that they expect to receive an offer from one place or another for a pitcher, if not Eddie Miller, their prize shortstop. Bill Terry of the Giants is known to be in search of a pitcher and it is probable the Cubs appreciate they need more than a sprinkling of help in that particular department.

The Boston mound workmen mentioned in the speculation are Richard Errick-son and Nick Strlncevlch. Of course, there would have to be some cash as well as players Included in the consideration and the cash feature has been known to ruin more than one prospective transaction. Under present conditions cash Is of double importance. Even the magnates willing to spend will think twice before paying for a player likely to be called into military service. Terry May Want Shortstop.

When Terry opens his Giants' headquarters here he may also begin looking over the counters for a shortstop. At the Atlanta convention last week he met up with Bob Cobb and Oscar Reichow, respectively vice president and business manager of the Hollywood coast league team and took. up an option on Joe Hoover, a kid shortstop, but cannot get delivery until the middle of the 1941 season at the earliest. Terry's concern about the position Is the condition of Bill Jurges. It is reported that he hasn't recovered from the beaning he experienced last season.

Terry also is expected to do something in the Gabby Hartnett case. In Atlanta, Horace Stoneham, owner of the Giants, declared the ex-Cub manager had been hired as a player-coach. Subsequently Stoneham took it all back. Meanwhile Hartnett has been waiting for word about employment on the Polo Grounds. He had an inquiry from Terry a few days after being let out as Cub boss and just what halted negotiations, unless it was salary demands, isn't known.

HUTSON SCORES 2 TOUCHDOWNS, BUT George McAfee, Bears freshman back, flies thru the air for a seven yard gain in the second quarter. Acme Teiephoto.i i SIESAL Iliiii 4 A- i STYDAHAR CTN 3-' Pi San Francisco sport writers have led readers to believe that I am a glorified policeman who snoops around campuses looking for dirty linen to wash. That isn't the case, at all. As a matter of fact, when my assistant or myself decides to visit a certain university we notify the school's officials In advance and thus far we have had enthusiastic coSperation from every one, including the coaches." Atherton, who played football with Nebraska's Biff Jones at a Washington, D. high school, emphasized that his first concern in the operation of his office was the welfare of the athlete.

I am particularly happy about the support I have received from the coaches," he continued. "After all, when recruiting is eliminated or held to a minimum, we are relieving athletic staffs from a lot of work. They don't have to spend off seasons beating the bushes for talent, calling upon prospective athletes' parents, and meeting all kinds of demands before they finally get the boy enrolled." Regarding recruiting, let's take a look at the Pacific Coast's newly adopted ruling, which reads in part as follows: "It does not prohibit occasional normal contact between an alumnus and a high school athlete or the interviewing of such athletes. It does not prevent representatives of any Institution from advising any prospective student on entrance requirements, courses of study, fees and living costs, or from replying by letter to an inquiry regarding legitimate jobs which may be available on the campus or elsewhere. However, this rule, as well as all other conference regulations, will be interpreted according to itj spirit and intent.

The conference does not propose to allow athletic officials, coaches, alumni, or any one else to accomplish by indirection what they cannot properly do directly. For example, if it is found that fraternities or students are more than normally active in rushing prospective students of known athletic ability or that Individual alumni consistently are engaged in recruiting practices, such activities will be considered within the purview of these rules and action will be taken accordingly." Presidents of Pacific Coast universities are not as radical as Chicago's Robert Hutchins," Atherton They believe in competitive athletics and they decided to correct the evils rather than to abandon an important phase of student life. Our system isn't 100 per cent foolproof, but we are learning by trial and error and within two years I hope there will be little to criticize in the administration of sports in this conference." One of the major problems at the moment Is the matter of equality of opportunity in the development of an athletic program. There are 10 universities in the conference Montana, Idaho, Washington, Washington State, Oregon, Oregon State, California, Stanford, U. L.

A and Southern California. All are state Institutions except Stanford and Southern California. Tuition at state universities amounts to little or nothing. At Stanford, however, it means an expenditure of approximately $400. At Southern California it is $300.

For that reason organizations such as Stanford's "Buck of the Month" club are temporarily tolerated. Stanford alumni are permitted to contribute a dollar a month to a university fund for the payment of an athlete's tuition. The money goes directly to the university, not to the athlete, and must not be used for any item of expense except tuition. Names of the contributors and the amounts they donate are public records. Athletic scholarships no longer are allowed.

The new attitude of Pacific Coast universities toward the conduct of intercollegiate football and other sports is the most heartening development of recent years. For a time it appeared that the Ivy league, the Western conference, the Big Six conference, and independent schools like Notre Dame were fighting a losing battle against open subsidization, such as we now have in the Southeastern conference and elsewhere in the south. Amateur sport will prosper only so long as it remains amateur. Amateur sport dies when it becomes semiprofessionallzed. If the Big Ten, the Pacific Coast, and the leading eastern universities stick to their guns the fight is won.

i-- Ten Team Ago Today Detroit nosed out the league leading Chicago BY EDWARD BURNS. Cully Dahlstrom, Doug Bontley, and associate valiant Blackhawks last night dellchted an assemblage of 16,412 in Chicago Stadium by giving the Boston Bruins a 3 to 2 socking in an overtime hockey match. Dahlstrom scored in the first period to tie the count at 1 to 1 and again in the overtime to effect the victory. In between, Doug Bentley had scored a second period goal to put the Hawks ahead going into the third period. Johnny Chad got an assist on each of Dahlstrom's goals.

Johnny Gottselig got an assist on the first one and Joe Cooper on the second. Doug Bentley was assisted by Brother Max and Bill Thorns. Hawks Take Third Place. The outcome enabled the Hawks to supplant the Bruins in third place whereas they had begun the night's jolly business in a fourth place tie with the New York Rangers. The Hawks like to win anytime, but they were especially happy to show up Goalie Frank Brimsek who twice attacked Ol' Johnny Gottselig, making his first skating appearance of the year.

The youngster's second bit of rough stuff against the veteran precipitated a free for all fight in the third period, on which Referee Mickey Ion, who had a bad night thru-out, did no disciplining. Woody Dumart's goal after 12 minutes and 31 seconds of the opening period was of considerable skill, tho not spectacular. Woody took the puck on his own blue line and skated obliquely across the neutral zone to the region of his right boards. Steering the rubber with his stick in one hand and warding off back-checkers with his left hand and arm, Dumart curved toward the cage and neatly dropped off a package for Goalie Paul Goodman, who should have been able to decline the present. The goal by the Hawks which tied the score in 18 minutes and 20 seconds of the first period was in marked contrast to Dumart's solo swoop.

There was a faceoff to Goalie Brimsek's left and Gottselig and Chad bounced the puck around the Boston cage area until Dahlstrom got into a spot to bat it past the dancing Bruin goalie. There' a Thrill In It. The Hawks gave the customers plenty of excitement in the production of the goal which put Chicago i I V(e- iis 1 i mmJ INDIANS LOSE, 21-20 Memphis, Dec. 8 Special. Don Hutson, the Green Bay Packers great end, scored two touchdowns on passes today as a guest player with the Chicago Indians, but the Richmond Indians won a charity game, played before 7.000 fans, 21 to 20.

Hutson's first touchdown came with the game" less than a minute old on an eighty yard pass play, Parker Hall of the Cleveland Rams doing the tossing. The Packer receiver went across again ia the second half on a thirty-two yard pass from Gaylon Smith, former Southwestern back, also borrowed from the Rams. Another of Hall's passes, this time ets."
