Southern Cal top team in Pasadena play Trojans have six Rose Bowl wins; Pittsburgh, Alabama lead visitors Dipping into the record books concerning Rose Bowl classics, it is found that Southern California has appeared in that New Year's bowl six times and has won every encounter. Stanford has been host five times but has only been triumph ant twice. Alabama and. Pitts burgh lead the visitors to the Pasadena frolic with four appear ances apiece. In 1918 and 1919, there were no colleges playing in the Rose Bowl due to the World war. How ever, service schools of the Navy and the Marines were combatants. Trojans swamp Pitt. The largest score rolled up was the Southern Cal wallop of Pitts burgh in 1930 by a 47-14 count. The next largest score was South ern Cal's 35-0 shutout over the Panthers in 1933. No team from the Big Six has ever been represented in the Rose Bowl, but the Big Ten has seen one of its elevens recognized. Ohio State visited the Pasadena oval in 1921 but lost to the Californic Bears 28-0. Oddly enough, three of the bat tles have ended in ties. The strangest game of the whole se ries was the 1929 game in which Georgia Tech nosed out California 8 to 7. But, that was the clash in which Roy "Wrong Way" Rie gals ran toward his own goal and eventually set up the pins for a safety on his team and finally a win for the Tech Yellow Jackets. Ohio State university student fliers are making mass flights to other colleges during weekends in order to arouse interest in civilian flying.
