Gazette SPORTS Bears Ranked As Runner Up In AP Poll NEW YORK (AP)—Ignored before the season got under way and relegated to the also rans, Notre Dame today is the fifth ranking college football team in the country. The Irish are rated behind only Michigan State, California, Tennessee and Oklahoma, in that order, in the first weekly Associated Press poll of 1951. Frank Leahy's legions could climb even farther next week—provided they get past the University of Detroit Friday night. The question is: will Leahy's tricky I formation, in which the backs line up behind each other, fool coming opponents as it did Indiana in the 48-6 rout of the Hoosiers last week. Indiana beat the Irish last year. Only time will tell. First place votes were rather evenly spread with No. 1 Michigan State getting 37 from the nation's sports writers and sports-casters. Second place California got 22 and third place Tennessee 27. Oklahoma, fourth, got 18 and Notre Dame nine. Quarterback Club Meeting Huge Success Last Night in Anaheim Last night in the Anaheim Elks club the Quarterback club members of Anaheim and Fullerton were privileged to hear Mike Pecavich, famed after-dinner speaker who talked about winning teams and the personnel that goes into such a team. Pecarovich, was coach of Gonzago university several years ago and since has been coach of Loyola university, an actor in Hollywood and presently a professional football scout. He is recognized around the Southland for his colorful, interesting, informative and humorous talks, and certainly didn't disappoint anyone at the meeting as he kept the near-filled dining hall in constant laughter with his timely gestures and facial expressions. Starts In the Mind He is the type of speaker that one could sit and listen to all day and never grow tired of him. He started his talk by saying that the term champion starts in the mind—the athlete or individual has the qualities from the beginning or if he doesn't he acquires them very easily in short order. He went on and described the difference in character in a boy trying out, for a team. He said that character is the difference between the 30 and 40 that remain on the squad during the entire season and the 70 or 80 that first come out in September. They're loyal to practice, loyal Anaheim would soon be taking full interest in the club and activities at Fullerton je. Clare Van Hoorebeke and D Glover gave a brief statement to the team's attitude after Redlands game which led up to the showing at Chaffey. They admitted that it was a step up class, but during the week team went backward if program. Tex Oliver gave a brief down as to the reasons his team looked so bad against LACC past week. They said that they were up for the El Camino game but down for the next game he figured them to be up for the conference opener this week. Fullerton against Orange Coas Indiana in the 48-6 rout of the Hoosiers last week. Indiana beat the Irish last year. Only time will tell. First place votes were rather evenly spread with No. 1 Michigan State getting 37 from the nation's sports writers and sports-casters. Second place California got 22 and third place Tennessee 27. Oklahoma, fourth, got 18 and Notre Dame nine. California got to its lofty perch on the basis of its 35-0 shellacking of Penn, a team many Eastern experts thought would stop the Bears. California hasn't lost a regular season game in so long Coach Pappy Waldorf probably forgets the exact date. Kentucky lost its second straight, to Mississippi, 21-17, and will have to show a lot to get back up. Washington, supposed to give California a fight for the Pacific coast conference title, eked past Minnesota, 25-20, and Alabama was dumped by Louisiana State, usually one of the southeastern conference palsies, 13-7.

Kansas ... 30 CINA-CAR DRIVE-IN THEATRE Out Center, 5 MI. W. of Anaheim TONIGHT WEDNESDAY OCT. 2 OCT. 3 "NIGHT INTO MORNING" Ray Milland - John Hodiak plus "YOU'RE IN THE" He went on and described the difference in character in a boy trying out for a team. He said that character is the difference between the 30 and 40 that remain on the squad during the entire season and the 70 or 80 that first come out in September. They're loyal to practice, loyal to team members and loyal to coaches and teachers. They are great all around characters. Besides having a good character one needs discipline on the team. Along with good character and discipline one also needs control of body, mental expression and obedience. And he meant obedience to the team and coach and not the girl friends in the stands. He stated on a team there are really five or six real football players and the rest are out there for different reasons and with different attitudes. Don't Take Enough Interest Pecarovich thought that obedience isn't taught enough today in the homes. He thought that parents don't take enough interest in the youth until he starts to get his name in the paper. He said that he has talked to a lot of boys and they felt that parents really didn't care where they went at night. He said that some of the boys would leave home after dinner and wouldn't return until 2 or 3 a.m., and the parents wouldn't even know where they were or who with. He stated that boys of ten, 12 and 14 years of age need someone to look up to and respect and worship and at that age it usually is someone like Babe Ruth, Red Grange and Leon Hart and not the city doctor or banker. Like Local Doctor Then when the boys get to the age of 17 or 18 they want to be like the local doctor, or public accountant. They take an interest in how they got to their present position and they in turn start to study in that direction. He stated that one goes to school to learn how to learn, to think, and this is what he does on the football field—he learns about himself. The boy knows the qualities from the beginning or if he doesn't he acquires them very easily in short order. Ted Husing Signed For TV Show Ted Husing has been signed General Tires to do a fifteen minute NBC interview commentate preceding four football games authorized for television by National Collegiate Athletic Association. The schedule: October 6, Illinois-Wisconsin October 13, Notre Dame-SMU November 3, Army-South Carolina November 24, Michigan-O State. Then when the boys get to the age of 17 or 18 they want to be like the local doctor, or public accountant. They take an interest in how they got to their present position and they in turn start to study in that direction. He stated that one goes to school to learn how to learn, to think, and this is what he does on the football field—he learns about himself. The boy knows himself if he has the courage and how he stands with the other players. He said there is no place for love sick oats on the football team. And there is no place for the whiner, the one who is always complaining about things in general; the food at home, his teachers, his clothes, his coach, his girl. Another type of player that will ruin the team quicker than anything else is the show off; the one who doesn't do much in school and wants the attention of the girls. All they do is put on an act. Love Sick Oats They'll come in late to practice, just after seeing their girl or at the game they will know exactly where she is sitting and they will then begin to wonder who that boy is next to her and right about then something goes past him which is six points and the people wonder what's wrong with the coach. Pecarovich ended his talk by complaining about the so-called peroxide Pete or the misfit on the team with long hair and the one who races up and down the school avenue in his hot rod wearing four inch glasses. Art Shipkey and Dave Cone were present at the meeting and gave a brief statement as to how Sports Meeting Huge in Anaheim In the Quarterback club memvileged to hear Mike Pecarotalked about winning teams team.
