PCC Chiefs to Renew Bowl Pact; Live TV in 1950 Set By JACK HEWINS VICTORIA, B. C. (AP)—The Pacific coast conference is ready to renew its Rose Bowl pact with the Big Ten and to open the gates to television—with a few reservations. The conference wound up its annual summer session here yesterday but had to take a rain check on the television program. Its athletic directors disclosed they would gather again in San Francisco July 2 to set up the TV program. Del Mar Offers Biggest Stakes DEL MAR, Calif., (AP)—The richest stakes and purse program in its history will be presented by the Del Mar Turf Club during its 41-day meeting July 25 to September 9. Fourteen stakes aggregating $120,000 will be offered. The $2000 minimum daily purse level will also be maintained, the club announced today. Leading attractions are the $15,000 Del Mar Handicap for three-year-old and up at a mile and one-eighth on September 4 (Labor Day); the $15,000 Del Mar Derby for three-year-olds at a mile and one-eighth, and the $15,000 Del Mar Futurity for two-year-olds on September 9. The latter is expected to have a gross value of $40,-000. What they did here was set their policy on telecasting, agreeing to permit live television of conference football games in 1950. Directly affected are the five schools in Los Angeles, the San Francisco Bay area and Seattle. The four others enter the picture as sharers in the profits from telecasting. But all conference games in the three areas must be televised. If agreement can not be reached on conference game, telecasting is out for the entire schedule. Non-conference games are not included in the policy agreement. Further, television sponsors must guarantee a "gate." Competing schools will estimate what the minimum attendance should be for their games and the telecaster will have to assure an equivalent financial return. On the Rose Bowl agreement with the Big Ten, which ends with the next January 1 game, the Coast loop will ask its rival conference to send its best team to the Bowl every year. During the current five-year agreement the Big Ten has not permitted any team to appear more than once in three seasons.

Los Angeles St. ANAHEIM On the Rose Bowl agreement with the Big Ten, which ends with the next January 1 game, the Coast loop will ask its rival conference to send its best team to the Bowl every year. During the current five-year agreement the Big Ten has not permitted any team to appear more than once in three seasons. It was disclosed that the net income of the 1950 Bowl battle was $341,349,92, with half going to each conference. Half of the Coast organization's share went to California as one of the competing teams. The conference treasury got $25,000 and the rest of the member schools took $6033.75 each. The winter meeting was set for Riverside, Calif., with southern California and UCLA as host schools. Drawing of the 1954 football schedule was postponed until that session. The conference got in one last ruling on athletics, announcing that a freshman student transferring from a junior college to a member school at mid-year would not be permitted to engage in spring football practice. WHRA Approaches Windup Trot ARCADIA, Calif., (P) — The Western Harness Racing Association season today heads into its final stages leading up to the windup Saturday with the $50,-000 Golden West pace.

A Approaches Up Trot DIA, Calif., (P) — The Harness Racing Associaton today heads into its ages leading up to the Saturday with the $50,- in West pace. Manager Bernard Kearly termed the 1950 meetess but said he hopes for Huskies, Call Get Oar Edge MARIETTA, O. (P)—Washiton and California looked the teams to beat as rowing crew from 13 colleges swept through the Ohio river today in practisessions for Saturday's regatta. But an air of quiet confidenbrewing in the navy camp brougthe middies into the picture as darkhorse contender in the intrecollegiate rowing association championship event. The heavy crew of Massachsetts institute of technology looed as the toast of the east, wiCornell and Pennsylvania arating a nod as possible winner. The fact that the crews will be racing on a new three-mile course instead of the well-known Hudson river course at Poughkeepsie, N. gave some backing to scattered predictions of a possible upset. Lineup of crews across the rivalso has added to the uncertain Favorites Washington and California are spaced well apart, ther Huskies being in lane 3 near the Ohio shore while the Golden Beawill be in lane 10 near the WesVirginia shore. Navy will be in lane 7. In other lanes will be Syrcuse 1, Wisconsin 2, Rutgers - MIT 5, Cornell 6, Columbia 7, Stanford 9, Pennsylvania 11 and Princeton 12. Boston University, the 13th entry, is competing only in the freshman race. Coxswains in the favorite shell will be hard pressed to keep the eyes on the chief competition Washington and California could easily reach the finish line before STARTS DOZEN—Jim Schmitz, JC left fielder, races across the plate to score the first of twelve runs in rip-roaring fourth inning of last night's game with Hornets as ball eludes catcher Dave Garcia. Obscured ump is Ray Ortez. JC's won the game 16-1. Ritz, JC Squads Run Amuck In City Park Ball Sessions City Leaguers almost broke the scorekeeper's adding machine last night as Ritz Cleaners posted a 22-1 victory over Harry Horn and the JC's swamped the Hornets 16-1 at City Park. The Ritzmen did their cleaning in the evening's initial slaughter. Bob Morales batted four for five to lead the winners' swatmen. He and Sam Morales each pounded out round-trippers before the fracas was finished. Ritz picked up a total of 13 hits. Harry Horn managed only one. The JC's staged a 12-run fourth inning while winning their half of last night's double feature. Ed Stringer bashed a homer with the bags bulging in the fabulous fourth. JC batters collecting three goodies apiece were Jim Schmitz and John Selaya. Jack Rhea got two of the Hornets' five hits. Bos score.

Fishing Still Hit-Miss Deal The fishing barometer still registers hit and miss, according to sea-scanner Dick Martin. Port Orange, for one, reported good fishing on the Catalina board over the weekend. Island-bound returned with white sea bass and barracuda. The Skip-a-long-, with eight passengers aboard, cruised the Wrigley's Rock area and took on 54 white sea bass. Average size was 22 pounds. The largest were 44. Fishing below Dana Point, and other Port Orange Craft pickered up a number of the big bass Monday. You can haul more loads more miles...for less with Chevrolet Trucks. Florists Blank Lynx in 3-0 Style The Buena Park Lynx bowed 2-3 to visiting Portland Florists last night in an Amerige Park session. Portland hurler Laura Nelson picked herself up a perfect ace as she kept the Lynx out of both the hit and run columns. The victors got to Lynx pitcher Severly Meissen for a total of five knocks. Portland scored initially in the fourth frame when Jerry Burroughs singled and Betty Locke followed with a home run. Burroughs scored again in the sixth as she tripled and then came home on an outfield fly. The squads meet again tonight at Buena Park. Game time is 4 p.m. Badger Miler Shoots for Third Victory at NCAA Clash Saturday MINNEAPOLIS (AP)—A young man from Wisconsin has a double-barreled ambition he would like to fulfill before he ends his collegiate career with graduation this month. He is Don Gehrmann, 22 year old senior at the University of Wisconsin. Gehrmann is the first man ever to win the noted Banker’s mile three years in a row, and he would like to add his third National Collegiate Athletic Association crown before hanging up his spikes in college running. The other part of his ambition is to better the mark of 4:08.3 set by Lou Zamperini of southern California in 1938. From the looks of things, Gehrmann stands a better chance of realizing his three-years-in-a-row dream than the record-breaking hope. If Gehrmann achieves the honor it would be something that Zamperini and the famed Glen Cunningham were unable to do. Both won the NCAA mile twice but couldn't make it a third straight time. Gehrmann was one of some 270 track and field athletes from all over the nation who moved into Minneapolis for the opening of the NCAA competition tomorrow afternoon. Southern California’s 16-man delegation was to arrive today. According to pre-meet dope, Southern California was to run into its stiffest competition from a powerful Yale squad seeking to give the east dominance it hasn’t enjoyed in years in track and field meets. Leading that Yale squad will be Jim Fuchs, who will be seeking to better his shotput mark of 56 feet, 1½ inches, set last year. The experts figure the shotput record is but one of about six that probably will be bettered in the two-day affair. One of those is the 100-yard high hurdles mark of 13.9 set by Ed Dugger of Tufts in 1940 at Minneapolis and equalled last year by Craig Dixon of University of California at Los Angeles.
