Chuck Taylor Picks His Tribe to Beat USC's Trojans Saturday in LA
SAN FRANCISCO (UP) — Notes from the football writers meeting:
Stanford coach Chuck Taylor picks his team, with reservations, to beat Southern California in their crucial gridiron battle in Los Angeles Saturday.
The reservation is that every Stanford man must play his best game. Taylor thus far has been a 100 per cent correct prognosticator. He called the turn in the seven victories to date.
"I know of no reason why we can't beat USC if everyone plays up to his capabilities," he said. "We will have to concentrate on trying to stop Frank Gifford. He is one of the outstanding backs on the coast. Pat Cannamella is a linebacker for USC but no better than some we have met.
"Stanford will be high for this game. Ten of our 11 starters are from the Los Angeles area. They know most of the boys they will be playing against."
"I though Gary Kerkorian called a good game against Washington State last Saturday. (Stanford 21; WSC 13.) He did some well blocking for a T-formation quarterback. WSC was guarding Bill McColl closely so Gary didn't call on him very much."
Lynn Waldorf, California: "We were soundly beaten by a very good UCLA team (UCLA 21; Calif. 7), one that played its best game of the season. I would rate UCLA as strong all around as years and I don't think Olzewski's presence would have affected the outcome.
"Perhaps California was overrated at the start of the season, especially on defense.
Dons Host Top Orange Coast Team Friday
A new champion has taken over the helm of the Eastern J.C. Conference pigskin parade in the form of the San Bernardino Indian who has a definite eye on a certain budding rose.
The Indians from San Berdoo dethroned the game, but underpowered Santa Ana Dons 32-2 last Friday to take over an impressive 3-0 lead in the league standings with only Fullerton, Mt. San Antonio, and Riverside colleges left on their schedule. With the Junior Rose Bowl bid narrowed down to Pasadena and San Bernardino, the Indians are hot on the trail to the Dec. 8 game in the Brookside park stadium.
Dons Not Outfought
Outpassed and outclassed, but definitely not outfought, the Dons couldn't cope with the Indians speedy running attack and long string of reserve players from the bench.
Practice resumed yr on the local high school with about as much displayed as a husband to his wife after a hard work and having been for 20 years. It was miserable workout, but the circumstances, one shouldn't complain.
After all, the locals beaten Fullerton high, a had been undefeated and lost a league game for years. This present team wore the best to come out of it in at least 20 years with present-Anaheim team disl have the full support of community.
This feeling came about the locals could win only their first four games, fans quickly forgot that they were playing just about teams in the Southland.
But all that is past is the only undefeated in the Sunset League and no one more victory to quarrel the CIF playoffs which three weeks; however, the League winner draws a round bye, but goes into Nov. 30 against the Bay winner which right now Santa Monica who won last year but lost out in...
Weekly Contest Heads Down the Final Stretch
It was interesting to note that in the Gazette Merchant weekly football contest this week, two-thirds of the entries picked Fullerton to beat Anaheim high in the Sunset League battle of the week.
There were only two winners on first place this week which is still a good record from the first few weeks when five and six were deadlocked for the winners awards.
However, only one picked up the winners tab last week which was some sort of a record considering the large number of contestants who enter the contest each week.
There are only two more contests after today and everyone should try and reach the winners' circle. However, the way the winners have been picking their teams, it seems like a hard chore to select enough winners to oust such "brains" as have been in the contest in the past.

Dons Not Outfought
Outpassed and outclassed, but definitely not outfought, the Dons couldn't cope with the Indians speedy running attack and long string of reserve players from the bench.
Santa Ana's new passing combination of quarterback Bob Smith and end Don Stroud clicked for many yards and Milton Wikert, Bob Griffith, Floyd Strain and Don Henley provided the running punch while Chuck Sitton, Frank Freese, Dathan Burns, Bob Crumley, Dean McCord, Jack Wilcox and Del Broomell played outstanding defensive ball, Strain, Burns and Wayne Schnakenberg saw action for the first time in three weeks as they have been out because of injuries.
Saturday at 8 p.m. the Orange Coast college Pirates will host the Dons in the Santa Ana Murielipal Bowl. Orange Coast currently in the number two spot of the standings with a 4-1 won-lost record. The Pirates will use a backfield with about as much speed and deception as that shown by San Berdoo, with Howard Miller, quarterback, Jesse Smith and John Black, halfbacks, and Hal Smith at fullback. On the line will be Ed Mayer, Bob Woodhouse, Fred Owens, Gil Mash, Don Paxton and Glenn Woodard.
Garey of Anaheim Starts
Santa Ana will open with Siton and Freese at the ends, Schnakenberg and LeRoy Eisenbraun at the tackles, Ira Garey and Crumley guards and center Tom Moore. Smith will handle the quarterback chores with Strain and Henley at the halfback posts and Wikert at fullback.

Practice resumed yesterday on the local high school campus with about as much interest displayed as a husband shows to his wife after a hard day's work and having been married for 20 years. It was truly a miserable workout, but under the circumstances, one really shouldn't complain.
After all, the locals had just beaten Fullerton high, a team that had been undefeated and hadn't lost a league game for over four years. This present team was rated the best to come out of Fullerton in at least 20 years while the present Anaheim team didn't even have the full support of its own community.
This feeling came about when the locals could win only one of their first four games, but the fans quickly forgot that the locals were playing just about the top teams in the Southland.
But all that is past. Anaheim is the only undefeated team in the Sunset League and needs only one more victory to qualify for the CIF playoffs which start in three weeks; however, the Sunset League winner draws a CIF first round bye, but goes into battle Nov. 30 against the Bay League winner which right now stands as Santa Monica who won the title last year but lost out in the playoff.

Fullerton Coach Praises Hoorebeke And Wallin for Outstanding Game
Rev. Wallace Hastings, assistant pastor of the First Christian church in Fullerton, was the guest speaker of the Fullerton-Anaheim Quarterback club this morning at the Club-Center in Fullerton.
He spoke on some of the great teams and colorful incidents pertaining to those teams that are in the Northwest section of the United States. He spoke about Oregon State, Oregon, Washington State, Washington and the Bible College that he attended.
The colorful speaker spoke Christian athlete and their up with "I know there must be a lot of critical feelings about the game, but all I have to say Is that Clare Van Hoorebeke, head coach of the Anaheim football team is tops as coach."
Spaulding continued, "Anahim should feel very fortunate in having such a wonderful coach and a peach of a fella."
Spaulding thought that the main factor in the Colonist victory was the fact that Anahim loosened up quicker and easier in the second half than his own Indian队 did. He thought that

But all that is past, Anaheim is the only undefeated team in the Sunset League and needs only one more victory to qualify for the CIF playoffs which start in three weeks; however, the Sunset League winner draws a CIF first round bye, but goes into battle Nov. 30 against the Bay League winner which right now stands as Santa Monica who won the title last year, but lost out in the playoffs to Loyola who fell to Fullerton.
Fullerton's loss to Anaheim will be felt for a long time, at least by Jack Cartwright, right guard and right linebacker who was knocked to the field in a hard block in Friday's game. He had to leave the game midway in the second half and he never returned.
He will spend a few days in the hospital with a wreneted knee and will not be able to participate in the two remaining Indian games with Orange Friday and Santa Ana the following week.
The other two injuries, Don Hudson, fullback and Hal Conrad, quarterback were both out to practice yesterday and will see action against the Panthers Friday night.
Already the Warriors are starting to talk about a new league win streak, but they're going to have a tough time in overhauling the scrappy Anaheim team. They have a head start, what-with their five straight victories—two last year and three this season.
But winning streaks are not important to the team or community. It is the finished product that everyone is interested in and that is where the local team seems to excel.
With head coach Clare Van Hoorebeke, John Wallin and super chief scout, Bill Hicks, the team lost their first few games, but they weren't losing just games because they were learning things only a loser finds out about himself and what is his mistakes.
One who is losing doesn't like to lose day after day and he takes stock of himself and tries to find a solution. He asks questions, tries harder, puts out more and as a whole does the things that lead to his improvement.
The winner usually sees no speaker of the Fullerton-Anaheim Quarterback club this morning at the Club Center in Fullerton.
He spoke on some of the great teams and colorful incidents pertaining to those terms that are in the Northwest section of the United States. He spoke about Oregon State, Oregon, Washington State, Washington and the Bible College that he attended.
The colorful speaker spoke about Christian athletes and their gifts to their teams and teammates. He spoke about Gill Doods, the miler who set a new world's record for running the mile indoors and he related incidents from the lives of Bob Richards, the pole vaulter and Louis Zamperini, the great SC miller.
Spaulding Gives Reasons
Preceding Hastings to the speakers platform was Dick Spaulding of the Fullerton high school football team who suffered their first loss of the season to Anaheim only this past week-end.
Spaulding said that there wasn't enough time for the explaining he had to do. He followed that
Basketball Season Only Several Days Away from Starting
A very attractive schedule has been set up for the current Anaheim basketball season with their first game only two weeks and four days away.
The cagers will open the season with the varsity and Bee team's traveling to Bellflower for games in their new gym, then will host the same opponent the following Tuesday in the local gym.
Following games have been lined up with Tustin, Redlands and Long Beach Jordan with the Redlands and Jordan games being home-and-home games and the Tustin being just the one meeting which will be held on the Fillers' court Nov. 30.
The Sunset League competition gets under way Jan. 8 on a Tuesday afternoon with defending co-champ Anaheim meeting up and coming Huntington Beach on the Oilers' court.
Last year Anaheim and Newport Harbor tied for the league crown, but as a result of returning Clare Van Hoorebeke, head coach of the Anaheim football team is tops as coach.
Spaulding continued, "Anaheim should feel very fortunate in having such a wonderful coach and a peach of a fella.
Spaulding thought that the main factor in the Colonist victory was the fact that Anaheim loosened up quicker and easier in the second half than his own Indian team did. He thought that John Wallin had his Colonist linemen outcharging the Brayes the whole night, the first time a team had got away with that against the Braves this year.
FUHS Not Cocky
He felt that the Fullerton players were not cocky before the game, but the Anaheim players just had a better frame of mind and attitude for the game. He stated that his guard, Jack Cartwright, who was injured in the third quarter and had to leave the game for the hospital with a turned knee, was the best lineman Fullerton has had in the past few years.
The Indian chief stated that he was shocked at the results, but not surprised because he knew that Anaheim was loaded ever since the summer. He said that the Braves had been pointing for Anaheim right after the Huntington Beach game and completely over looked Newport.
He seemed to feel that the Indians would start right out on another winning streak, but that statement was met by laughter from the Anaheim guests headed by Art Shipkey. Shipkey was fined.
Writers Tab Coast Eleven to Fall in Rose Bed Again
LOS ANGELES (P)—The seventh straight Rose Bowl defeat of a Pacific Coast conference team was predicted during the weekly meeting of the Southern California Football Writers.

One who is losing doesn't like to lose day after day and he takes stock of himself and tries to find a solution. He asks questions, tries harder, puts out more and as a whole does the things that lead to his improvement.
The winner, usually, sees no wrong and if he does, doesn't want to change because he is satisfied. He can't be told what to do because he is it. He is champ and nobody can tell him what is wrong.
The Fullerton Indian football team was beginning to look like the great Yankee baseball team—rolling along year after year with championship after championship. Fullerton was turning into a championship football factory and it was truly good for the league that they got beat.

Southland Teams Continue in Race For League Titles
Fullerton high wasn't the only undefeated team to fall by the wayside over the past week-end in high school games around the Southland.
Redlands who edged the Anaheim Colonist team in the season opener at La Palma Park, 7-6, was sporting an undefeated mark, but lost that Friday night in a great battle with Pomona 14-0. Pomona now seems certain of winning the Citrus Belt League championship with Redlands slated for the runner up spot.
However, a team did continue their undefeated mark, in fact, two of 'em did it. Monrovia powered over El Monte 35-7, while Santa Monica was running roughshod over Los Angeles high by the very impressive score, 51-6 in a practice game.
This is the same Santa Monica team that the Colonists will be facing in the CIF playoffs, if the locals can win one of their two remaining games with Newport-Harbor Friday or Orange the following week.
Chaffey's Tigers walloped San Bernardino 32-13 in another Citrus Belt League game.
Citrus blanked Puente 28-0.
Sailors Having Rough Season, But Could Spill Colonists This Thursday
Deeply entrenched in the Sunset League cellar is the Newport Harbor football team currently having one of their poorest seasons on record.
The Sailors have finished the league race for the past two seasons in second place while dropping only two league games, both to champion Fullerton by scores of 42-27 and 33-0. The Sailors lost this year 41-0, but just haven't been the same team they were one and two years ago.
Newport has nine returning lettermen, but only one was a starter on last year's runner up team that powered over Anaheim 35-13 last year. Two of the returning lettermen can't make the first team and coach Al Lewin is Trojans in Sixth Spot in AP Poll For Top Teams
NEW YORK (AP)—Mighty Tennessee's football team is the country's No. 1 college team for the third straight week in the estimation of the sports editors and broadcasters who participate in Irwin took over the reins in 1948 and promptly brought to Newport a colorful, exciting team. He had such standout players as Bob Berry, all-league while only a sophomore at fullback. Irwin had Mell Smalley, Dick Jones, Larry McMasters, Bob Woodhouse, Bob Thompson and many other top notch players, but the string is almost at an end.
Don Aarvold, 164-pound two-year letterman operates at the fullback spot with a pair of lightweights, Rex Bell and Bill Hopkins at the halfs. Rolly Pulaski, junior and the lone returning regular, directs the Tars from the T-quarterback spot.
The Tars boast the lightest starting tackle in the league in 146 pound Bruce Baird, who played for the Bees last year.
While the Sailors may not be a contender for the title, Irwin has the knack of firing his boys up and they can be expected to come up with a surprise somewhere along the line and Thursday night could be the night.

NEW YORK (UP)—Mighty Tennessee's football team is the country's No. 1 college team for the third straight week in the estimation of the sports editors and broadcasters who participate in the weekly Associated Press poll.
The Tennessee outfit, which trounced North Carolina Saturday, 27 to 0, snared 60 of the 152 first place votes and remained on top of the heap with 1,230 points. The Vols were mentioned on every ballot and their placings ranged from first to tenth.
The shake-up beneath the Southeastern Conference club, however, was terrific with idle Michigan State slumping all the way from second to fifth and Illinois, victor by 7 to 0 over Michigan in a snowstorm, climbing from third to second. Maryland and Princeton also vaulted over the Spartans.
Baylor and California dropped out of the select group, their places going to Stanford and Texas. Below Michigan State came Southern California, Stanford, Georgia Tech, Wisconsin and Texas in that order.
