Browns' Otto Graham, Lions' Bobby Layne Dominate Pro League NEW YORK (UP) Two quarterbacks, Otto Graham of the Cleveland Browns and Bobby Layne of the Detroit Lions, are dominating the 1953 National Football League season. Cleveland opened its eighth home season and strengthened its bid for an unprecedented eighth straight division-title Saturday night with a 37-13 triumph over the Philadelphia Eagles. Graham completed 20 out of 30 passes for 297 yards as Cleveland made its record 3-0 in the Eastern Conference. Yesterday Layne threw the decisive touchdown pass to end Leon Hart as the champion Lions took undisputed first place in the Western Conference and remained the league's only other perfect-record club by beating the San Francisco Forty Niners, 24-21. More Scores In other Sunday games, the Washington Redskins scored a 13-9 triumph over the New York Giants; the Los Angeles Rams (2-1) posted a 38-20 victory over the Green Bay Packers as quarterback Norm Van Brocklin's passes set up four of the five Ram touchdowns; quarterback Fred Enke's touchdown passes to end Dan Edwards and half-back Buddy Young, and Bgrt Rechachar's field goal gave the Baltimore Colts a 16-14 decision over the Chicago Bears and the Pittsburgh Steelers (2-1) scored a 31-28 victory over the Chicago Cardinals (0-3) with a 17-point last period rally.

STANDARD OIL COMPANY OF CALIFORNIA plans ahead to serve you better SPORTS HAL THOMAS, EDITOR Bakersfield JC Appears Strong In Grid Race LOS ANGELES (UP)—It will take some major upsets to keep Pasadena, Bakersfield, San Bernardino and Antelope Valley from annexing the 1953 grid crowns in their respective junior college conferences. The four undefeated powerhouses made that fact quite evident as they added to their list of victims during weekend Southern California Jaysee football games. Bakersfield, rated as the strongest of the lot, put a heavy claim on the Metropolitan circuit crown by walloping its strongest contender, El Camino, in a lop-sided 3513 game. Pasadena enhanced its reputation and chances of taking the Western State title by mauling Fullerton, 33-0. Coach Ed Nyden’s boys have amassed a total of 104 points against foes in only three games. San Bernardino removed its chief opponent in the Eastern Conference by eliminating Orange Coast, 12-7, in their circuit opener. Orange Coast had been undefeated until meeting San Bernardino. As expected, Antelope Valley trounced Imperial Valley in the South-Central conference, but not by the heavy margin expected. Coach Bob McCutcheon’s outfit Local Tennis Club Loses Sunday Match To Montebello Team The Golden Gate Tennis Team of Montebello, yesterday, spotted the Anaheim AB Mid-Cities Tennis team, the women’s singles, and the mixed doubles matches by default, but still squeezed out a five to four win over the local netters. Only winners for the loca club were Bob Carlson, third singles, who took an easy victory over Jim Meckoll 6-0, 6-2, and Bill Walker in fifth singles, who earned his point the hard way, playing for several hours and using two overtime sets before finally subduing Bill Hines 8-10, 6-2, 75. Montebello’s victories in the other singles matches were onesided as Bill Armstrong was defeated by Ernie Follico 6-0, 6-2, Floyd Baker lost to Steve Herle 6-0, 6-1, and Dick Hanson dropped a 6-0, 6-2 match to Harry Boziglain. Baker and Hanson teamed with no more success in the second doubles, losing to Herle and Meckoll 6-1, 6-3. The winning point for the day’s matches was in question until the last play in the first men’s doubles, Carlson and Armstrong finally losing a three-set match to Follico and Bonsigian 6-2, 0-6, 6-2. Next match for the AB team will be in Santa Ana on October 25, with Sunday’s rounds featuring the C and D League teams. The C team travels to Whittier to match strokes with the Poets, while the local D team plays host AGAIN, THE GOOD Las Vegas here we come! all this week as the Blue and white of polishing out rough vasion next Friday night.

As expected, Antelope Valley trounced Imperial Valley in the South-Central conference, but not by the heavy margin expected. Coach Bob McCutcheon's outfit shaded Imperial, 15-13. In other conference games, Riverside and Chaffey tied 6-6 and Mt. San Antonio drubbed Safita Ana 13-7 (Eastern); and Harbor shaded East Los Angeles 13-12 and Long Beach to摘 Diego San Diego 21-12 (Metro). Meanwhile, the two powerhouses of the small college circuits remained in a class by themselves. Redlands, rated as a lead-pipe clinch to take the SCIAC, routed underdog WLaVerne 27-0. The victory raised Redlands' three-game total scoring total to 88 points. The sure bet for the CCAA title, Cal Poly of San Luis Obispo, lived up to expectations by mauling Santa Barbara, 59-6. The mighty San Luig Obispo squad has rolled up a total of 119 points in its three early-season games. In other small college games Pomona-Claremont blanked Cal Tech 28-0, Los Angeles State upset Fresno State 14-12, Occidental beat Whittier 7-6, Cal Poly of San Dimas downed Chino 13-6, San Diego State beat Pepperdine 6-0 and Palomar routed Cal Baptist 32-0. Earl Sande Still Seeks First Comeback Victory NEW YORK UP)—Earl Sande shifted his riding tack to the Jamaica race track today as he continued his search for his first comeback victory. The 54-year-old ex-champion was assigned two mounts on the opening program of a six-day meeting. Both are longshots. Sande will ride Zig Away, a 20 to 1 shot, in the third race and will pilot Son Fen, a 10 to 1 shot, in the eighth event. Sande launched his comeback at Belmont Park last Monday after being absent from the saddle for 21 years. He accepted his fifth mount on Saturday's closing day show at Belmont, finishing 18th with Edgar J. M. in a 23-horse field. Other PCC Teams Taking Dead Aim At UCLA Bruins SAN FRANCISCO UP)—Everybody wants to get into the Rose Bowl act, it seems, and from now on, every club in the Pacific Coast Conference is going to be taking dead aim on the UCLA Bruins, the only perfect record major team on the west coast. The Bruins, boasting a very fine defense, have been having a bit of trouble lately on the offensive side. In these days of high-scoring games, they have counted only twice each tilt in their last two battles. Meanwhile, they have held the opposition scoreless. They get their first big test if the PCC campaign on Saturday when they take on Stanford, a team that is definitely on the improving side and longing for a shot at the Bruins. All Want In But the Indians are not the only club with aspirations. Take a look at these: California—the Bears have won two and lost two so far this season. Their latest was that 40-0 chollies. No more success in the second doubles, losing to Herle and Meckoil 6-1, 6-3. The winning point for the day's matches was in question until the last play in the first men's doubles, Carlson and Armstrong finally losing a three-set match 40 Follico and Bonzigian 6-2, 0-6, 6-2. Next match for the AB team will be in Santa Ana on October 25, with Sunday's rounds featuring the C and D League teams. The C team travels to Whittier to match strokes with the Poets, while the local D team plays host to the Whittier D squad at the city park courts in matches beginning at ten o'clock. Junior players of Anaheim are looking forward to a real thrill on Saturday when they accept the invitation of the famed Los Angeles Tennis Club to a team match to be played at the site of the recent Pacific Southwest Tennis Championships. Slated to go from Anaheim are Lou Ann Peterson, Rita Flynn, Jean Williams, Charlene Allen, Karen WLenain, Diane Richards, Kathleen Hathaway, Susie Cudney, Rita Marcoux, Beverly McDougal, Jean Bauman, Dick Hanson, Bill Otta, Floyd Baker, Don Klisz, Vincent Flynn, John Easton, Loren Pannier, Glyn Looper and Ken Fenton.

Lazio, currently leading the Italian Baseball League with a 16-2 record, is about to lose its American manager, Kenneth Opstein of Minneapolis, a worker in the United States Information Service. Opstein has been re-assigned to the United States by the State Department. But Lazio's 22 players are hoping Mr. Eisenhower will come to their aid. They've petitioned the President in an airmail letter and cable to permit Opstein to remain at his post.

If It's News You'll See It The Bulletin Hal Thomas AGAIN, THE GOOD OUTWEIGHED THE BAD Vegas here we come! Such will be the Colonist battle-cry this week as the Blue and Gold varsity settles down to the busiest of polishing out rough spots preparatory to the Nevada in next Friday night. For the first time this season, the Van Hooresbeke-men had a lot of raw meat as the ball carriers bowled over, through and under the opposition with the help of better blocking at the line drummage than has been their privilege to enjoy in previous years result, 5 touchdowns, and two more called back, 43 plays to El Rancho's 36, and a total of 18 first downs-denotable-control, (which usually pays off on the scoreboard). Blocking Improved Offensively, the Colonists showed improved technique, but for the straight game, the break-away or long-gainers paid the rent, and the down-field blocking been comparable to the blocking drummage line, at least two of the long first-downs would result in touchdowns. In two separate occasions, the ball-carrier broke into the clear a blocker still out in front of him and neither time was the held down. One time, the blocker turned around to see where it was going and an El Rancho tackler darted behind him to Dean down for a 19 yard gain that should have gone 43 yards to TD. How simple it would have been for the blocker to knock the tackler and let Philpott choose his own course. HIT EBODY! There just isn't time to decide WHO to take out, ball-carrier is smart enough to dart into the path made for by the GUYS OUT FRONT! This game is NOT WON by the ball under his arm. The Break-Away Guys Speed is a great asset in the backfield, and Anaheim is blessed three speedier-than-averages sprint horses, in Don Leigh, Mickey and Dean Philpoth. Give either of them an inch and they'll mile as is proved by the double-figure gains of the past games. Last Friday night, Roy Weaver had a 12-yard, Philipott 6 times with 12, 19, 24, 20, 18 and 12, Gouyd-10 and 22, Leigh-17. I must emphasize most of these long runs are to be used to the line blocking rather than down-field blocking. Paul Grover did a good job mixing his plays, and in spite of poor pass completion record (2 for 7), he threw often enough deep El Rancho's backs from moving in to close. Defense Improving The Colonist defense was pretty fair. El Rancho was a better than the 32-12 score would indicate, as witness, the Dons 14 downs. Excepting their two TD drives they were not allowed move the ball into dangerous territory. True, the Colonist line sagged in a couple of spots, however, cumulative experience gained in each succeeding game is grad-manifesting itself in the ensuing one. Considering the way El Rancho's quarterback Lindblad was throw-the ball around, (16 passes) defensive backs Gouyd, Philpoth, Weaver and Jack Crosson did a creditable job backing up the Only 12 times during the game, did a rushing play carry for than 5 yards and only three times for more than 10, last but least, the same quartet looked much better on pass defense, more than once did a Don intended-receiver get behind one of Dean Philpott: intercepted on pass for a 6-yard return. Hey Gouyd gathered one in on El Rancho's 30 and returned itards to the 9, to set up the third Anaheim TD: But Roy Grand Larceny Roy wasn't making like a clown, though, when he picked off in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter. The Rancheros on the ball on their own 40, second and 8 when Lindblad shot a down field. Weaver cut in front of the intended receiver, the old glue-fingers and returned the ball to the enemy'sard line. Six plays later, Lindblad tried another-heave into the zone and Roy made a match like a Macy shoplifter, return-this one 10 yards to the loser's 35. (A fine night's work Mr.ies.) There were 5 other instances wherein Anaheim backs batted down blad passes, End Jack Crosson, playing his first assignment as defensive back in place of the sailing Henry Herrera, looked every threat to take Henry's job away from him. More than the El Rancho lina or blockers failed to move Crosson out the play, and Jack stopped a half-dozen Don tries, up close to scrimmage line. (Coach Bill Hicks has done some fine work this first-year man in fundamentals.) Odoriferous! Undoubtedly, the smelly part of the Friday fray was the Colon-flagrant disregard for the rules of football-EIGHT penalties, of them for 15 yards each, for a total of 100 yards—the length of football field! Now there are four ways to play football-clean and cleaner, and dirtier; as nearly as possible, the ideal for a winning it is to pour in these ingredients in equal parts, mix well, and in portions small enough as to not become repulsive to those position to hurt you. Occasionally a game will be cursed by lousy officials whistle-jerks. When this happens, usually both teams get it in the. (El Rancho drew SIX penalties.) In other words, Colonists, it hard but keep out of any more trouble in Friday night's portions; it may cost you a football game next time. Conation is just as important on the football field as it is in the room. All in all, the team turned in a good performance and a still one must come off next Friday if the 1953 Anaheim varsity be remembered for its VICTORY OVER LAS VEGAS!
