Fullerton to Toss Dangerous Pass Combo Against AUHS Not content with having the Colonists merely worrying about the Fullerton team, Coach Claire Van Hoorebeke has started bringing personalities into the picture. And what personalities.! The principal one that Van Hoorebeke has injected into the Colonists' thoughts is 169-pound tailback Jewell Owens. Sooner Record Still Far Away NORMAN, Okla. (AP)—Oklahoma has won 25 straight football games, but the Big Seven conference and Sugar Bowl champs have a long way to go before they can threaten the record for consecutive triumphs. Most gridiron historians agree that the all-time high was set by the University of Washington, which won 39 games in a row for Coach Gil Dobie in 1907-14 before playing a scoreless tie with Oregon State. The Sooners can tie the so-called modern record of 26 straight victories if they beat Iowa State Saturday at Ames. That one was set by Cornell, also under Gil Dobie, in 1921-24. There are those who overlook the Washington string, because it included games with high school, battleship and club teams. They hand the record to Pennsylvania, which won 38 straight under Coach George Woodruff in 1896-98 before losing to Harvard, 10-0. Since the turn of the century, only one school has come close to the marks established by Wash- Owens has varied from great to phenomenal in the Indians' games thus far this year. Owens, however, wasn't the only one to come in for some consideration. Van Hoorebeke also cast a cautious eye at Duane Pennington, who plays behind Owens, and Larry Graemer, a reserve end. It was the devastating attack by this trio against Newport Harbor last Friday that caused the latest attack of Van Hoorebeke gloom. Owens ran for one touchdown and passed for two others. Owens and Pennington completed eight passes during the game, most of them to Kraemer, who grabbed two for scores. Off the statistical showing in last week's game, it may end up as a battle of passing attacks tomorrow night in La Palma park. The Indians managed to grind out a healthy total of 203 yards on the ground against the Sailors, but the visitors reciprocated by gaining 192 of their own that way. When it came to passing, however, Fullerton gobbled off chunks amounting to 178 yards while holding the Sailors to an insignificant 29 through the air. Moreover, this came on only eight Indian completions, each one averaging 22.25 yards. The Colonists will attempt to counter these threats with a few... Saturday at Ames. That one was set by Cornell, also under Gil Dobie, in 1921-24. There are those who overlook the Washington string, because it included games with high school, battleship and club teams. They hand the recod to Pennsylvania, which won 38 straight under Coach George Woodruff in 1896-98 before losing to Harvard, 10-0. Since the turn of the century, only one school has come close to the marks established by Washington and Penn. Glenn (Pop) Warner’s Pittsburgh teams of 1914-19 rang up 33 straight victories, ending with a 24-3 loss to Syracuse. Michigan won 25 in a row in 1946-49 and Notre Dame teams of 1946-48 were all-victorious in 21 straight. In the 19th century, Yale twice won 37 games in a row but could go no farther. The first Yale streak came in 1887-89, with the late Walter Camp handling the teams the last two years. Another Yale string of 37 came in 1890-93 under Camp and William C. Rhodes. Princeton stopped Yale’s initial string, 10-0, in 1889, the year Oklahoma was opened to settlement. And it was Princeton again that put an end to the second Yale streak, 6-0, in 1893. When Notre Dame extended its string to 39 games without defeat—but with two ties—before losing to Purdue this month, there were many who thought the Irish had established a record in that respect. But the record books show that Washington continued on thorough 63 games without a loss, having four ties along the way. California finally whipped the Huskies in 1917. Oklahoma started its all-winning streak—now the longest in college football—with the second game of the 1943 season after losing the opener to Santa Clara. It includes triumphs in the last two Sugar Bowl games. When will the end come for the Sooners, who are rated No. 3 in the AP national polls? It could come Saturday if they don’t stop the passes of Winging Willy Weeks. CINA-CAR DRIVE-IN THEATRE 6612 Lincoln Ave. Dut Center, 5 Mt.

Rickey Expected to Cut Off Relations with Brooks Today BROOKLYN (AP)—Branch Rickey, father of the farm system and other baseball innovations, is scheduled to make a clean break with the Brooklyn Dodgers today. The Brooklyn baseball club announced a 3 p.m. (EST) press conference at which the bushy-browed executive is expected to announce his resignation as president and general manager. He has already agreed to dispose of his one-fourth share of Dodger stock for $1,025,000. This is being snached up by Walter O'Malley and Mrs. John L. Smith, each of whom already holds 25 per cent of the club. O'Malley is slated to become president. Fresco Thompson, director of the Dodgers’ farm system, is figured to have an inside track for the general mangership. Meanwhile, Rickey’s own future in baseball remained a mystery and became a bit more clouded with the disclosure yesterday of the terms under which he sold out. It was learned Rickey had agreed to accept payment of the $1,025,000 for his stock in installments covering a ten and a half year period. Major league rules forbid anyone who holds stock in one club to have a financial interest in another. Thus if the unpaid part of Rickey’s old holdings in the Dodgers could be interpreted as a financial interest he wouldn’t be permitted to line up with another major league club. Reports have had him ready to join the Pittsburgh Pirates in an executive capacity or buy into the St. Louis Browns of the American league. Rickey himself, who is conceded to have one of the sharpest Grid Attendance Shows Slight Drop NEW YORK (AP)—College football attendance is off about two per cent and television is catching most of the blame. An Associated Press survey of 262 games played by 105 schools shows average 1950 crowds of 22,867 as compared to 23,275 a year ago. Last fall a similar check in mid-season reflected a four per cent increase. Both the Southwest and South show an increase. The big drop is in the Far West and East. Midwest attendance is only slightly off. The Far West decline is 11 per cent, the East eight per cent and the Midwest only 1 per cent. The total attendance to date of the 105 schools, perhaps one fourth of those playing football, is 5,991,034. Probably at least 9,000,000 saw college games at all schools to date. Michigan shows the way with 225,513 for three home games, followed by Rice’s 190,000 for three. Ohio State, always among the leaders, expects to better last year’s record with a late season rush. Ohio had played to 153,809 in only two home games. Others up near the top are Tulane with 168,668 for four. California with 158,994 for three. Washington Still Tops PCC LOS ANGELES (P)—Ten's two offensive guns back Don Heinrich and Hugh McElhenny, still an yard gainers in the Pac conference.

Commissioner A. B. Chandler said he had called a meeting for Oct. 31 of the major and minor league executive councils. That session will be for a discussion of the rule governing broadcast of major league games in minor league cities. The next day the commissioner will meet with representatives of the three class AAA leagues—Pacific Coast, American Association and International—for a discussion of the Coast loop's plea. Some minor league club owners have claimed their attendance has been hurt by the broadcast of major league games. Scheduled to be considered by those playing football, is 5,991,034. Probably at least 9,000,-000 saw college games at all schools to date. Michigan shows the way with 225,513 for three home games, followed by Rice's 190,000 for three.

DiMag Not Ready To Step Down Yet SAN FRANCISCO (P) — The Yanks' big man, Joe DiMaggio, isn't talking like a man about to kiss the big leagues goodbye. Right now, he's indicating that he's ready to negotiate for a 1951 contract. Joltin' Joe, one month shy of turning 36, said yesterday: "We haven't had any trouble arriving at contract terms the last few years. I don't know when I will hear from the club. It might be next month or after the first of the year." He said he's in good shape "except that my knee bothers me a little." He dodged commenting about salary, especially whether he would seek a boost in his reputed wage of $100,000 a year. DiMaggio, currently at home, is awaiting clearance for a trip to Japan with Frank (Lefty) O'Doul, manager of the San Francisco Seals. They expect to leave here by air Monday. Navy Recalls to Be Equalized Future recalls of inactive and organized Naval Reservists will be on an equal basis, it was announced in Washington Tuesday by the Chief of Naval Personnel. The new policy, which removes the "priority" tab on organized reservists, is designed to strengthen the Organized Reserve, whose backlog of trained personnel already has been depleted by the current mobilization program, and to maintain the organized units for future events. Under a new directive, Naval Reserve personnel either transferred to or enlisted in an organized reserve unit. Disgusted Marines (Continued from Page One) tion by shouting insults at the battleship Missouri. As their ship, the happy USS Pickaway, passed astern of the battleship, the Marines yelled: "Where's Harry? "How do you people like shore duty?" "Hey, Mudbank, how'd you get out here. That's deep water." The Marines were careful as they landed. But they doubted profoundly and profanely the ancestry of whoever it was that ordered the operation carried out against a peaceful shore. It didn't make the Marines any happier either to learn the Army's Tenth Corps, which had set up headquarters in Wonsan, had named the main drag "MacArthur Boulevard." The Tenth Corps is the operational command for the Marines, the Seventh Army Division and the ROK divisions on the east coast. As the convoy arrived at its anchorage the Marines noted with mock alarm the buoys marking the 3000 yard wide channel through the extensive mine field. To sweep this peaceful harbor cost four minesweepers. Once on the trip up the convoy was forced off course slightly by the presence of three floating mines. be subject to recall only to the same degree as inactive Naval Reservists possessing the same qualifications. This procedure will be followed by the Bureau of Naval Personnel and the Chief of Naval Air Reserve Training in the case of officers and by the Naval Districts in the recall of enlisted men. Naval Reservists whose employment or dependency status indicates probable delay of 60 days or more in event of recall will not be transferred to the Organized Team on Defense NEW YORK (AP) — Mississippi State has replaced Cornell as major college football's total defense leader, according to figures released today by the National Collegiate Athletic Bureau. Ohio State is on top in rushing defense, Oklahoma in forward pass defense and Utah in punting. Mississippi state gained the No. 1 position without playing the past week-end, its average of 140.3 yards allowed per game becoming the best figure due to Cornell's slipping back to 162.5 and fourth place. The Ithacans permitted Yale 243 yards in defeating the Elli squad on Saturday. Wake Forest and Wyoming also overtook Cornell with averages of 158.0 and 160.2, respectively. Bruins Taper For Purdue Tilt LOS ANGELES (AP)—The UCLA football squad takes its final spirited practice of the week today and leaves by plane tomorrow to battle the Big Ten's Purdue at Lafayette, Ind. Hopes for an improved offense brightened when blocking back Julie Weisstein suited up and joined the drill. Whether his injured elbow will stand up long remains to be seen, however. The new policy, which removes the "priority" tab on organized reservists, is designed to strengthen the Organized Reserve, whose backlog of trained personnel already has been depleted by the current mobilization program, and to maintain the organized units for future events.
