Stagg Declines Grape Bowl Bid Over Player Vote
Stockton California December 1 Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg of the College of Pacific said he declined an invitation to the Grape Bowl in Lodi on January 1 because not all players favored going. He polled the team and the vote was about even. COP's only setback this season was to Southern California. Colorado College has not yet accepted or rejected the other bid. Captain Cook, discoverer of the Hawaiian Islands, was killed by natives on his second visit in 1779.
