Draw Earns Colonists Excellent Chance At Finals Spot in Class B Tournament That vastly unpredictable thing—the luck of the draw—today promised to throw Anaheim's Bees all the way to the finals of the Orange county tourney starting tomorrow in the AUHS gym. Bill Hunstock's team made it two straight on Friday with a 41-16 win over Tustin, thereby placing themselves among a group of already beaten or apparently weak teams in the four-day tournament. Other teams in Anaheim's bracket are Garden Grove, Orange, Valencia, Fullerton, Brea, Santa Ana, and Tustin. Or these, the Colonists have already beaten Tustin and Valencia and Tustin has beaten Santa Ana. Fullerton looked very weak in its debut on Friday, thereby leaving only three teams of unknown strength in the upper bracket. The smart lads, however, are saying that the champ will come from the lower bracket, and most of them are casting an eye at Huntington Beach when they utter this pronouncement. Reason is, they say, that there are several lettermen back from last year and that last year's Oiler Cee team was tops. Three games open the tourney tomorrow at 2 p.m., with three more following at 3 p.m., and two at 4. A smiliar schedule will be followed on Wednesday, with single games at 2, 3, 4, and 5 on Thursday and the finals on Friday night. First round pairings for tomorrow's openers: 2 p.m.—Anaheim vs. Garden Grove, Orange vs. Valencia, Fullerton vs. Brea; 3 p.m.—Santa Ana vs. Tustin, Newport vs. Capistrano, Huntington Beach vs. Bell Gardens; 4 p.m.—Long Liptrapp Awarded Expert's Medal WASHINGTON—Edward Liptrapp, 18, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas E. Liptrapp, 521 E. Adele st., Anaheim, has won the Expert Rifleman's medal, it was announced here today by the National Rifle association, governing body of competitive rifle and pistol shooting for the Unjited States. Liptrapp took up the target sport four years ago. He has climbed steadily through the thirteen lower rankings and needs only to win once more to reach the top in junior shooting—the Distinguished Rifleman award. Ronnie Bevins came back on Friday to top the Colonists in scoring with 11 points. Gayle Herbel and Paul Salazar followed him with eight points. In a preliminary game, the Anaheim reserves smothered Tustin's subs by a 53-18 count. ANAHEIM TUSTIN (2) Huesca F Long (1) (8) Herbel F Ruiz (2) (2) Kolb G Bark Coen G Lewis (2) (11) Bevins G Teter (8) Halftime score: Anaheim 20, Tustin 7 Fullerton basketball Coach Alex Omalev looked hesitant about him today at a poor situation threatening to get increasingly worse this week. His Hornets, kingpins of Eastern conference last year one of the best in the Southland took its lumps in the opener Friday night, falling before Pasadena city college by a 72-52 count. Tomorrow night the Hornets faced another tough trial, meeting Los Beach city college, overtime hours to Pasadena last week. Losing String To make matters even worse it represented the longest losing streak at Fullerton since Omaha arrived there. The Hornets lost their finale last year—to the same Long Beach team—and they have a current losing skein of two straight. Apparently the loss of Bru Bennett and Don Johnson will felt even more than first anticipated, since their replacement come in several inches short. Only center Pinky Thompson is the starters is even as much average basketball height. Thompson Hits Thompson tried mightily. Friday night, but he couldn't carry the load alone although he was high by dunking in 19 points. Most of it came in the second half, however when it was more following at 3 p.m., and two at 4. A smiliar schedule will be followed on Wednesday, with single games at 2, 3, 4, and 5 on Thursday and the finals on Friday night. First round pairings for tomorrow's openers: 2 p.m.—Anaheim vs. Garden Grove, Orange vs. Valencia, Fullerton vs. Brea; 3 p.m.—Santa Ana vs. Tustin, Newport vs. Capistrano, Huntington Beach vs. Bell Gardens; 4 p.m.—Long Beach Jordan vs. Downey, Rosemead vs. Laguna. Blanked in his first start, guard Paul Salazar followed him with eight points. In a preliminary game, the Anaheim reserves smothered Tustin's subs by a 53-18 count.

That came yesterday when the Chicago Cardinals upset the Chicago Bears, 20 to 10, before 31,-919 in Chicago's Comiskey Park. A week ago the Bears whipped the Rams and went into first place in the National conference. They NOT SO GAY—In 1948, Notre Dame's Billy Gay ran a back to tie Southern California.

The season only is a week old but Rice, Michigan, Texas, Loyola of Chicago, Pittsburgh and Dartmouth have been stung by the upset jinx. More teams are expected to tumble. But Bradley university and CCNY, which last season met in the finals of the two big post-season tournaments, are off to fast starts. The “grand-slam” Beavers from City College have rolled past two minor foes, St. Francis of Brooklyn and Queens college, while the Peoria, Ill., Braves opened Saturday with a 94-73 romp over Houston in a Missouri conference tilt. These two national powers, however, face a busy week. CCNY will play Brigham Young Tuesday and Missouri Saturday, both in Madison Square Garden. Bradley will entertain Wayne university and Oregon State before traveling to Chicago stadium for a big game with DePaul on Saturday. In Saturday’s form-reversals, Wheaton tripped Loyola of Chicago, 60-62, in overtime; St. Michael’s edged Dartmouth. Trio Survives Grid War With Unblemished Records NEW YORK (AP)—College football’s “Death March” over and only three—Oklahoma, Princeton and Wyoming have survived as the nation’s unbeaten and untied teams. Oklahoma’s Sugar Bowl bound Sooners finished up season in a blaze of glory Saturday by trouncing Oklahoma A & M, 41-14, for their 31st straight victory. Princeton and Wyoming completed unbeaten and untied seasons a week ago. Army Falls However, Army failed to make it going down before an inspired Navy team, 14-2, before 103,000 fans at Philadelphia’s Municipal stadium. The Navy victory, in the 31st meeting of these traditional rivals, snapped a 28-game unbeaten streak built up by the Black Knights of the Hudson over a three-season span. Other pre-season favorites for national honors also ended on a dismal note. Notre Dame’s once mighty Irish ate crow for the fourth time at Los Angeles by dropping a 9-7 decision to the Southern California Trojans and Southern Methodist’s Mustangs lost their fourth game to Texas Christians Horned Frogs, 27-13 at Dallas. Zastrow Zings Bob Zastrow was the last sank the Army. The 20th Navy quarterback skipped yards for one touchdown after a 30-yard pass for the Navy’s staunch line play the Cadets on their heels managed to alter out one first downs and one long came in the third period. Zastrow was tackled in his end zone for a safety. Oklahoma toyed with its national rival Oklahoma A for one period. The score locked at 7-7 after the fixtures the Sooners then opened up 28 points in the second-to-top Quarterback Claude led the Sooner drive with touchdown passes.

Los Angeles St.—Anaheim SERVING CHOICEST LIQUORS—WINES and BEER DON RICARDO Colonists Flounder, But Rally In Final Half to Triumph 39-29 Given more than a passing scarce for a half by an underrated Tustin team, Anaheim's Colonists threw up a rock-ribbed defense in the final two periods to whip the Tillers 39-29 on Friday. Although almost abruptly ended, the Colonists victory string went to two straight and they will have three chances to add to it this week. Bell Gardens is first tomorrow afternoon and may be a good test since it is undefeated in three outings. Anaheim is at Laguna on Wednesday and then has a replay with Bell Gardens here on Friday afternoon. Lead at Half The Tillers almost embarrassed the Colonists and actually retired with a half-time lead of four points after leading almost all of the first two periods. The half time rest, however, considerably cooled off the visitors while the homebreds were being heated up—at least about the ears—by Coach Sam Keith. The net result of all of this was the failure of the Tillers to make a single field goal in the final half. Only one point was added in the third quarter and three more free throws materialized in the final stanza. Trail All the Way Up until that time the Colonists had trailed almost all the way. Tied 2-2 in the opening stage, the Tillers romped to an 11-2 edge until Dennis Denny added two free throws late in the period. The lead was cut to 24-20 at the half, but the Colonists had never been may be attributed directly to Tustin’s inability to hit the hoop in the final half. Manuel Ruiz had drilled three quick buckets just before the half and center Ronald Storey had made eight points, but both drew blanks in the latter part of the game. Just as in the opener on Wednesday, Welch and Faulkner led the scoring, although reversing the order this time with Welch being high with 14. In the preliminary game, Anaheim’s Jayvees rolled to an early lead to win over the Tiller Jayvees 51-33.

Navy's staunch line play hurled the Cadets on their heels. Army managed to take out only five last downs and lost some time in the third period when Zastrow was tackled in his own zone for a safety.

The kids have lost only one game, an only season decision to Mississippi State. Texas, which ends its season against Louisiana State this week, also has only one blot in its record, a 14-13 defeat at hands of Oklahoma. LSU batted Tulane to a 14-14 tie Saturday.

Grape Welch hit a field goal and Ronnie Faulkner added two free tosses to tie it. A Faulkner charity loss and two more free throws by Rel Schmitt got it up to 27-24 with two minutes gone in the third quarter. A bit later Faulkner made a driving, diving bucket but fooled in the process and Max Moore made the only Tustin point of the period.
