Colonists Netmen Mate Locals Score Clean Sweep In Doubles to Win 19-9 Anaheim netmen handed visiting Montebello racketeers a 19-9 reversal yesterday on the AUHS courts in CIF semifinals play. The victory means that the Colonists will meet Santa Monica sometime next week in a match to decide the Southern California high school net championship. Golfers Start Field Day Tomorrow Noon Highlighted by the championship match between John Ganahl and Kenny Dougan, the Anaheim Golf Association's Field Day gets underway tomorrow at the Meadow Lark Country Club. First flight leaves the tee at noon, according to Dick Gay, Association secretary. A whole host of golfers will give the links a workout tomorrow in the activities which write 'finis' to the Golf Association's 12th annual tournament. The tournament began on April 3. An awards banquet will climax tomorrow's activities. Starting at 6:30, the program features steaks, golf-style entertainment, and bestowing of various prizes and trophies. Winner of the Ganahl-Dougan match will receive the coveted President's Trophy. Winners of each of the four tournament flights The affair will probably take place at the Los Angeles Tennis Club. A clean sweep in doubles competition made the difference between victory and defeat for Bill Cook's boys. With the issue very much in doubt, Anaheim's Marshall-Webb, Sousa-Wright duos took over and won four out of four sets for 12 big points and the match. Yesterday's win evened the count between the two squads. Last April the Montebellans downed the locals 5-4 in a practice encounter. Faulty strategy, in addition to Colonist capabilities, helped spell defeat for the visitors yesterday. In an attempt to distribute doubles strength evenly, the Montebellans paired top-ranking men with men from the bottom of the ladder, with the result that teams were unhappy mediums instead of very good or very bad. The wisdom of such maneuvers was demonstrated in the Colonists' doubles sweep. Scores. Singles: Bottger (A) def.

The former middleweight king signed yesterday to fight his boyhood pal—champion Jake La Motta—for the 160-pound title June 28 at the Polo Grounds. He signed without benefit of manager. As the New York Boxing Managers Guild agreed to hold a solid line against the International Boxing Club until a new radio-television contract is signed, this weakens their stand. No contracts were to be signed for fights after May 31, when the current TV pact expires. Irving Cohen, the manager who used to excuse Rocky's mistakes with "he's just a boy," is under technical suspension in New York. He failed to renew his contract with Graziano while still acting as manager. La Motta, who does his own business, also signed for himself, his manager, Joe La Motta, is under suspension too. "I'm taking it upon myself," said Graziano "Irving told me 'do as you want.' He has to stick to strength evenly, the Montebellans paired top-ranking men with men from the bottom of the ladder, with the result that teams were unhappy mediums instead of very good or very bad.

World Golf Match Idea Gets Airing By RUSS NEWLAND SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The first world championship in golf may take place next year in Portland, Ore. Robert A. (Bob) Hudson, Sr., Portland business tycoon and sportsman, has been toying with the idea several years. There is a reasonable chance it may be realized in 1951. This information comes from the Hudson headquarters. Such a golfing extravaganza would be the logical goal of Hudson, a dynamic personality who would try to rollerskate up a mountain if the fancy seized him. Once tied up in a golfing enterprise, he will see it through and with success. The professionals consider Hudson the No. 1 golf promoter in this country. Aside from his generous dealings with them, he doesn’t require they wear identification numbers. Plans for the possible 1951 premier of world championship golf are to bring the open champions of a dozen or more countries together in a 72-hole medal play competition. These would include the titleholders from the U.S., England, Ireland, Scotland, France, Germany, Canada, Argentina, Australia, South Africa, The Philippines, Mexico and possibly Japan. BEFORE THE BATTLE—Jimmy minute plans before crucial mribute six points to Anaheim’ Irving Cohen, the manager who used to excuse Rocky's mistakes with "he's just a boy," is under technical suspension in New York. He failed to renew his contract with Graziano while still acting as manager. La Motta, who does his own business, also signed for himself, his manager, Joe La Motta, is under suspension too. "I'm taking it upon myself," said Graziano "Irving told me 'do as you want'. He has to stick to the Managers Guild." "I want to make money. I'm getting a little old. I'll be 29 pretty soon. I had to borrow on my insurance to pay off that promoter in Oakland (for running out on a scheduled California fight.)" "After all this is going to be in a ball park and there ain't going to be no television, anyhow." IBC matchmaker Al Weil said each boy gets 30 per cent. They agree to a re-match at the same percentages if Rocky wins. Also, if Rocky wins, he will fight exclusively for the IBC for three years. When John Marshall of Yale recently won three events at the AAU indoor swimming championships, he became the second swimmer ever to record that feat. Pomona Horse Show POMONA (HP) — The Pacific Coast Quarter Horse Association is holding its sixth annual spring show here this week-end. More than 350 horses are expected to be entered in the three-day competition starting Friday at the Pomona fairgrounds. Four races will be held Saturday and Sunday at distances from an eighth to a quarter mile, at which quarter horses excel. Indians Top Saints Santa Ana committed four errors and Fullerton scored four runs in the first inning yesterday as the Indians tripped downed their hosts 8-3. The victory lines the Indians up for a half share in the league crown with Santa Ana, providing they beat Anaheim and Downey in their two remaining tilts and Santa Ana tops Newport in the season finale. on Mash Montebello; Head SPORTS BASEBALL STANDINGS SUNSET LEAGUE W L Santa Ana 10 1 Fullerton 9 1 Newport 6 4 Orange 5 5 Anaheim 4 6 Downey 3 7 Huntington Beach 0 11 Games Yesterday Anaheim 9, Huntington Beach 5 Fullerton 8, Santa Ana 3.

"The conference does not officially recognize a champion in baseball, or in football or basketball either, for that matter, and so it would not be possible to state that the winner in any playoff was an official conference champion."

Big Ten Moguls Slate Rose Bowl Wedding Talk CHICAGO (AP)—Renewal of the Rose Bowl football contract, which has been under fire from some quarters since it was signed in 1946, will be studied by Big Ten faculty men tomorrow. Their first consideration will be whether or not to continue the series, which ends under the present pact with the playing of the 1951 game. Swede Miller on Compton Menu COMPTON, Calif. (AP)—Sweden's famed mile runner, Lennart Strand, is due tonight to compete in the Compton relays the night of June 2. That is his only scheduled race in this country this year. It is his first race in America since 1946. Slafed to oppose Strand in the mile are Horace Ashenfelter, former NCAA two-mile champion from Penn State; John Twomey, defending National AAU 1500-meter champion, and Bob McMillen, winner of the two-mile run in nine minutes two seconds in the Coliseum relays in Los Angeles May 19. Full Field Due For Ft. Worth Golf Tournament If the majority of big 10 schools wants a renewal, a committee will be appointed to confer with Pacific Coast Conference officials on revisions. A vigorous foe of the pact, which has made the Rose Bowl a family affair between the Pacific Coast and Western conference, has been President J. L. Morrill of Minnesota. It is reliably reported he has picked up some new followers. The vote was 7 to 2 in favor of signing the contract in November 1946. Minnesota and Illinois cast negative ballots. Since 1946, there have been several changes in university presidents as well as faculty representatives in the big 10. Their stand on renewal has not been defined. If the conference decides to continue, some sort of compromise will have to be worked out with the Pacific Coast. The three-year clause, which prohibits a big 10 team from making the Pasadena trip more than once in this period, probably will be reduced to one Pasadena appearance every two years. Full Field Due For Ft. Worth Golf Tourney FORT WORTH, Tex. (AP)—The full field of 36 players is due to fire final tuneup rounds today for the $15,000 Colonial National Invitation Golf tournament, opening tomorrow.
