Rosemead Upsets Jordan; Anaheim Moves into Semis Its players jubilant over a victory which almost was rubbed off the books, Rosemead provided the first upset of the Orange county B tournament yesterday when it bounced Long Beach Jordan out of the running by a 36-35 count. It was guard Tom Zapel's free throw in the final minute that did the job, breaking a 35-all deadlock. The two teams had practically matched each other basket-for-basket during the entire game, and were tied at halftime, 17-17. But Rosemead almost lost it after the game was over. The 36-35 score was the one that had been posted on the large scoreboard, but when the scorebooks were checked some disagreement began to arise. One showed Jordan ahead, 36-34, another had a 35-35 tie, while still another — the "official" book — showed a 36-36 tie. Many of the players were already under the showers and it was too late to play off a "tie," so the two coaches went into a huddle with tournament director Dick Glover, compared all of the scorebooks, and came up with the Rosemead decision. The rest of the games again proved to be very formful. The scores: Championship Bracket— Rosemead 36, Jordan 35 Huntington Beach 53, Newport 26 Anaheim 37, Valencia 23 Fullerton 28, Tustin 13 Consolation Bracket— Bell Gardens 52, Capistrano 39 RESULTS Championship Bracket Fullerton Tustin 4 Doss F Rivas Gunn F Ruiz 2 8 Bridgeford C Burke 2 2 Moore G Teter 11 Ledbetter G Lewis 1 Halftime score: Fullerton 19, Tustin 6.

Anaheim, which figured to easily repeat its earlier win over Valencia, led only 10-7 at halftime and never did assume a really safe margin until late in the fourth quarter. Santa Ana was almost dropped from the tourney when it trailed Brea by four points at half-time, but it rallied to win in the closing minutes. The favorites, however, advanced with ease. Huntington Beach merely frolicked about the court while rolling up the tourney's highest score. Everyone on the bench got into the game, but the score continued to mount. Bell Gardens, the odds-on choice to win the consolation bracket, found the going easier against Capistrano than it had been against the Ollers in the first round. Possibly the second best team in the tournament, the Lancers should have no trouble from here on out. With seven teams ready to start firing, Recreation Director Derrr today announced the schedule for the Anaheim City League to run until March 8. Two games will be played Monday and Thursday nights with Tuesday nights left open for practice games. The starting time for the first game is 7:30 with the finale to go at 8:45. Derrr set Jan. 18; the beginning of the second round as the first day on which to submit official rosters. He also requested teams to appear at the high school games when they are scheduled for byes since practice games with teams from other leagues will be arranged on those nights. Playoffs are scheduled to start on March 12 with both individual and team trophies going to the winner of the regular schedule and of the playoff. The schedule: Dec. 7—Ritz Cleaners vs No. 6; Williams vs Hatfield Cleaners Dec. 11—No. 7 vs Hatfield Cleaners Dec. 14—Ritz Cleaners vs Cotter Bob Williams vs Hornets Dec. 18—No. 6 vs Cotter's Dec. 21—No. 7 vs Hornets; Hatfield Cleaners vs Hunt Foods Dec. 28—No. 7 vs Ritz Cleaners; No. 6 vs Bob Williams Jan. 2—Hatfield Cleaners vs Hornets; Cotter's vs Hunt Foods Jan. 4—Cotter's vs Bob Hatfield Cleaners vs Hornets Jan. 8—No. 6 vs No. 7; Hornets' Bye.

Flanagan Jubilant, Saddler Bitter Over Upset Win DETROIT (IP) — Good looking Del Flanagan of St. Paul Minn., is hot on the trail of Lightweight Champion Ike Williams today after scoring an upset victory over Featherweight King Sandy Saddler in a non-title scrap here last night. The 22-year-old Minnesota youngster was hopeful of getting a shot at William’s crown in January and the International Boxing club indicated it would do its best to make the match. Flanagan, whose flastic reputation had been confined previously to his home town area, won national recognition with his carefully planned triumph over Saddler. Art Mahan, Villanova college baseball coach, was formerly a star with the Philadelphia Phils. Yankee Stadium’s Foxy Reyna Finally Shot Under L.E. Stands Yankee Stadium's Foxy Reyna Finally Shot Under LF Stands By TED MEIER NEW YORK (AP)—The great fox hunt at Yankee Stadium is over. One blast from a shotgun ended yesterday the mysterious career of the pesky little critter that for 53 days had been the despair of custodians of the huge sports arena. There was no baying of hounds and no gaily clad hunters mounted on splendid horses were in on the kill. Instead, the end of Reynard came in the dimly-lit and eerie atmosphere of a dusty concourse under section 26 in left field. Walter Grego, a Long Island golf pro who used to hunt with the late Babe Ruth, was the chap who ran Reynard to earth. Recently engaged to help improve the stadium turf, he was inspecting the infield when there was a shout that the fox had been sighted under the stands. Grego got his shotgun and accompanied Charles Owen, stadium superintendent and master of the hounds to the dimly lit concourse. "It was pretty dark," Grego said. "We were pretty nervous, since I had to be careful of the gun. Suddenly, I saw a eyes shining in the dark. Ed and I had only a fract second to get him on the I was fortunate enough him right back of the about 40 feet." "He was lean and starving. In a way it was a shoot the little critter, better this way. The stadium no place for him." The fox was about the long and weighed 15 pounds will be mounted later as room exhibit. Reynard first was spotted watchmen the night before Army-Michigan football game a truckload of tarpau been brought in. Since the fox has proved more cumulative Casey Stengel, manager of Yankees.

Final post-season honors were heaped upon Anaheim backs Leonard Weaver and Augie Huesca today when they were named to the All-Sunset league team for 1950. The team was selected by a vote among coaches Van Hoorebeke, Anaheim; Spaulding, Fullerton; Frisholz, Huntington Beach; Irwin, Newport; Colo-Santa Ana; and Tsoutsouvas, Orange. Weaver was the Colonists' top ground gallner for the season and played almost every minute of every game. Though a good running back, his forte was on defense where he made an amazing percentage of the Anaheim tackles while playing a halfback position. Huesca was also an offensive and defensive stalwart. Though injured much of the season, he was the best breakaway runner in the Anaheim backfield and had two long punt returns to prove his effectiveness in a broken field. Center Gene Geselle and quarterback Enoch Peterson of Anaheim were picked on the second team, and end Lee Webb was accorded honorable mention in the poll.

It was fortunate enough to get him right back of the neck at about 40 feet. "He was lean and starved looking. In a way it was a shame to shoot the little critter, but it's better this way. The stadium was no place for him." The fox was about three feet long and weighed 15 pounds. It will be mounted later as a press room exhibit. Reynard first was spotted by watchmen the night before the Army-Michigan football game after a truckload of tarpaulins had been brought in. Since then the fox has proved more cunning than Casey Stengel, manager of the Yankees. Phone 4618 ERMISCH "MY CLEANER" Branch: 350 W. Center Plant: 117 W.
