forgotten game (I forgot it)

[luckyshow]

I read this once from you guys buyt can't locate it again.

One of the two year AFLs in 1930s/1940s, the champion, maybe the Columbus team, went to Los Angeles to play the champions of the Pacific Coast league, maybe Los Angeles Bulldogs. In a lower level football leagues championship. LA won 7-0 I think.

Obviously I forget everything else. Can someone tell me what my mind forgets? Also where the pdf with info on the other pro leagues is.

Thanks

I found the reference here:

But although I still know no details, it is mistaken anyway, as it was the Hollywood Bears who beat the Bullies 7-0 (on 11/30/1941) I found the pregame article online in LA Times, but no report the next day. Not sure the second source was perfect either as it said the PCFL 1941 season was cut short by Pearl Harbor. But seems the season was complete before that. They were 8-0-0 and played 8 game seasons it looks like...

The L.A. Bulldogs, not the Hollywood Bears, beat Columbus 7-0 on Nov. 30, 1941. Columbus played Hollywood a week later, on Dec. 7, and the Bears won that game 21-9. THAT was the game billed as "the championship of the small professional leagues," or words to that effect.

Columbus also traveled to the West Coast after the 1940 season to play Hollywood, even though the Bulldogs won the PCFL title that year. Columbus won that one 31-7, but Hollywood was playing without Kenny Washington, the West Coast's best player.

The 11/30 game did have an article in the LA Times the following day (see attachments)

As far as the 12/7 game, the attachment is from the 12/8 San Francisco Chronicle:
