Colonists Seek Crown While Braves-Saints Tangle for Runner-Up and Possible Tie Although Anaheim has rolled all over the Sunset league teams so far this season to remain undefeated, in league competition, they nevertheless can end up in a tie for first place with either Fullerton or Santa Ana who tangle with each other tomorrow night at Fullerton for the runner-up spot and just possibly the winning spot with Anaheim. All the locals have to do to throw the league race and final standings into a two-way tie with the Indians or Saints is to lose tomorrow night to Orange. An Anaheim loss would give the Colonists a win-loss record of 4-1, the same as the winner of the Fullerton-Santa Ana game will have. So, the locals aren't through fighting yet. They want that title all to themselves and not shared with anyone else, especially from Fullerton. In other games around the Southland, Compton, CIF champ for the past two years tangles with Excelsior and if they get by the Pilots, they will be in the CIF playoffs for the third straight year. Santa Monica of the Bay league, the team Anaheim expects to meet in the playoffs in two weeks, ends its league competition against Redondo, a rather weak team. Santa Monica is undefeated and headed for their third straight league title. One of the top games of the week will pit undefeated Monrovia against Pasadena high, also undefeated, only in league competition. Monrovia is slated to be one of the all-time great CIF teams and is picked a sure bet to reach the finals this year. San Diego high runs into a fair San Diego Hoover team and the Cavemen should prevail to win their second straight San Diego City league title. CIF playoff competition starts next week and Anaheim will go into action the following week. Following is the Sunset league scores thus far.

NEW YORK (UP)—For the price of $10,000—a good day's hot dog and beer take—any big league club can have Joe Page, the gay reliever of the 1947-49 champion New York Yankees. Fireman Joe and 4683 other players are on the draft list for Monday's grab bag at Cincinnati. Owners are displaying unusual interest in the bargain basement sale. If you're a little hary on the draft, here's how it works. The last place club in the American League—the St. Louis Browns—gets first pick of all eligible minor leaguers. Then the Chicago Cubs, last in the National And so on through the New York Yankees No. 15, and the New York Giants, 16th and last. Last year the majors drafted 28 men for $269,500. That was only $3000 short of the record set in 1947 when 29 were picked for $272,500. Prize pick of a year ago was Morris Martin, the ex-Brooklyn lefty who wound up with a fine 11-4 record for the Philadelphia A's. Once they gave Martin a starting chance in the second half of the season, he was terrific. Some 15 of the 28 stuck around most of the year including the No. 1 pick, George Metkovich who patted 294 for Pittsburgh.

Bowwell, Huntington G. McCarter, Orange H. Boulding, Huntington Plans Under Way For Major League On Pacific Coast NEW YORK (UP)—Baseball is drawing up a master plan to create more major leagues. Rejecting 10-club or 12-club versions of the current majors as "entirely unsound," a special committee has outlined plans for a new "open" classification through which entire eight-club leagues might advance to the majors. Details of the steps leading from open to major still must be worked out. But the major leagues' special committee on Pacific Coast League problems promises the plan will be ready before the minor league meetings at Columbus in early December. The Pacific Coast League war reaches the finals this year.

Gazette SPORTS Hornets Travel To Glendale for Practice Tilt Tonight at Glendale high the Fullerton junior college Hornet football team tangles with Glendale City college in an 8 p.m. game which is a practice game between conference engagements. Both teams are doing rather poorly this season in more than one respect. Both have lost more games than they have won and both are being hit hard this week as most weeks in the past with injuries and students dropping from the squad and school. It will be the Hornets final game prior to the annual Turkey Day game at Santa Ana between the Hornets and Dons. Last year Santa Ana was undefeated in conference competition while the Hornets won only one game, yet Fullerton scored twice in the final period to tie the champion Dons, 18-18. The Glendale Vaqueros rank as slight favorites in the contest tonight despite their win-loss record of 1-6 since they have had one week of rest and time to recuperate from any of their past injuries. CARTER FLOORS ARAGON—Lightweight champion Jimmy Carter bounces challenger Art Aragon to the canvas for a three count in the sixth round of their title bout at Los Angeles last night.

Sport De-emphasis Movement Gains CHICAGO (AP)—A chance for a fresh start in toning down pressure in sports is going to be given the National Collegiate association, which rebuffed the last program presented it. The association's top planning committee, the NCAA council, intends to submit a definite sports de-emphasis proposal at the next NCAA convention, to be held in Cincinnati Jan. 9-12. Included in the new proposals are: CARTER FLOORS ARAGON—Lightweight champion Jimmy Carter bounces challenger Art Aragon to the canvas for a three count in the sixth round of their title bout at Los Angeles last night.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — World lightweight champion Jimmy Carter and challenger Art Aragon observed contrasting celebrations today. Carter enjoyed a round of victory toasts after successfully defending his crown in a bruising 15-round fight. Aragon, the slightly tarnished local Golden Boy of boxing, in more subdued fashion belatedly observed his 24th birthday. Aragon's birthday was two days ago. He had planned to combine it with a victory celebration after last night's battle. Instead the big party was on Central avenue, Los Angeles' counterpart of New York's harlem. Unanimous Decision Carter belted out a unanimous decision over Aragon, flooring him twice and leaving him well beaten. Bears Favorites Over Oregon NEW YORK (AP) — Halfbacks and drawbacks . . . homecomings and short comings . . . footballs and highballs . . . long roses and broken noses . . . winners and losers . . . all are parts of the football season. So here are the winners and losers for this week-end's games: Stanford over Oregon State: Referee Mushy Callahan and Judge Frankie Van gave the fight to Carter by an 11-point spread. Judge Joe Stone put the Gotham negro ahead by 12. Paid admissions totaled 7251 and gross receipts, including $35,000 for television rights, were $109,463, at least $20,000 less than expected. Star-Studded Crowd A star-studded, uproarious crowd, and a national television audience witnessed the title clash. Jack Dempsey, Leo Durocher, Joe DiMaggio, Mickey Walker, Joey Maxim, Barney Ross, Bob Hope, football coach Joe Stydahar and Capt. Bob Waterfield of the Los Angeles Rams turned out for the fracas. Aragon, cocky and fresh, took the play in the opening rounds and the outlook seemed dark for the 27-year-old champion. But Aragon ran into a bristling left hook that floored him for a three-count in the sixth round, and he took a severe beating in the last four rounds. It left him with one eye almost shut and the other cut and bloody. Aragon, as game as they come, absorbed fearful punishment in the late rounds, particularly in the twelfth when Carter had him virtually out on his feet. But he refused to go down again until the fifteenth, when another left decked him for one. a fresh start in toning down pressure in sports is going to be given the National Collegiate association, which rebuffed the last program presented it. The association's top planning committee, the NCAA council, intends to submit a definite sports de-emphasis proposal at the next NCAA convention, to be held in Cincinnati Jan. 9-12. Included in the new proposals are: 1. The elimination of, or curtailment of, spring practice for football. 2. Consideration of the advisability of post-season contests, such as bowl football games, and reducing the number of games on a schedule. 3. Limiting the number of substitutes to be used in any one game (thus ending, or reducing, use of the platoon system in football). 4. Definite supervision of benefits given athletes in colleges, their academic progress, and standards for their admittance to NCAA colleges. Fagan, owner of the Scals, asserted the open status would leave PCL a minor loop. The draft merely would be altered, he added. "I still think the Coast League should go it alone—with the right to buy, sell and trade players with the majors on even terms," he said. Fagan emphasized that the proposal would not alter his decision not to field a team next year. He announced at the end of last season that he was quitting in disgust at the PCL's minor league status. Over Oregon NEW YORK (P) — Halfbacks and drawbacks ... homecomings and short comings ... footballs and highballs ... long roses and broken noses ... winners and losers ... all are parts of the football season. So here are the winners and losers for this week-end's games: Stanford over Oregon State: only the fact that the game is being played at Stanford keeps Oregon State out of the favorite's role. California over Oregon: even if California isn't as good as first expected, the Bears should be good enough to handle an Oregon team that has won only two of eight. Tennessee over Mississippi: chances are Tennessee is about two touchdowns too strong for Mississippi. Michigan State over Indian: too much to expect Michigan State to keep the edge it showed last week in blanking Notre Dame, but only half the amount will be needed to handle the Hoosiers. Alabama over Georgia Tech: Tech already has been invited to the Orange Bowl—and it is a good thing. Princeton over Yale: Dick Kazmaier and his playmates annex the Big Three title for the fifth straight year. Brush Fire Helps Rid Tooth Ache WEST WARWICK, R. I. (P) — Antonio Petrarca has rid himself of a toothache—by setting a brush fire. Petrarca, a recent Itilian immigrant, had a terrible toothache yesterday. He doesn't speak English so he set a small brush fire off Main street to attract the attention of any passer who spoke Italian. Italian-speaking patrolman Joseph Pontarelli directed Petrarca to a hospital. For Health, Eat California Fruit PLAYGOLF Willow YOUR IS-NOLE PUBLIC GOLF COURSE Our New Club Won't Open to The Opparty Occasion West 5th Street at Radio Town SANTA ANA PILNI 3-8 Anaheim to Play CIF Game Nov. 30 At Fullerton Announcement came to Anaheim today that Anaheim will be the home team in the CIF football playoffs and they elected to play the game in Fullerton's stadium Nov. 30 with the game starting at 8 p.m. Anaheim, winner of the Sunset league championship, even though they might tie for the title with the winner of the Fullerton-Santa Ana game tomorrow night, will meet the winner of the Bay league which right now seems like it will be Santa Monica. Santa Monica is undefeated in all games this year and is heading for their second straight loop crown. They will play Redondo high, who is in third spot behind runner-up Inglewood, who lost to Santa Monica in the first week of league competition 26-12. Santa Monica uses the same formation as Anaheim, the T, and will be seeking to capture the CIF title, a position they haven't held for several years. Anaheim had a very victorious evening at Fullerton two weeks ago when they stopped the Indians by the score 13-7 to not only halt the Redskin's drive to another league title, but snap their league winning streak (23) and their undefeated streak of this year, which was up to six. Illinois vs, Ohio State Once Victorious Panthers Bring Losing Record to Anaheim for Final Loop Game Stumbling through one of their biggest and best losing seasons in many a year, the Orange Panthers will conclude their season of football competition tomorrow night against Anaheim High, the team seeking to capture the league title undisputed. If the locals drop the game to the next-to-last Panthers, they will drop into a tie with either Fullerton or Santa Ana for the 1951 crown, but the way they have been playing lately (forgetting the Newport game) the locals must surely be favored to win the league title undefeated and as a result extending their league victories to seven straight. Orange has been up and down in their playing all season, and last week they were definitely down in their game against ex-league champ, Fullerton. The Panthers lost to the Indians 34-0. They held Santa Ana to a half-time score of 7-7, but fell apart in the third quarter to lose to the Saints by the close score, 20-13. Behind at Half 21-0 In the Huntington Beach game the Panthers were behind at half-time 21-0 and lost the game to the Oilers 27-0 as the Oilers won their first league game in over two years. In the Santa Ana game the Orange and White clad team out-downed the victorious Saints, 14-12, and ground out more yardage on the ground, 168 to 148, but trailed in the air lanes to the Saints. Speedy Back in Carter They have one of the fastest backs in the league in transfer student Lanny Carter who last year played as a sophomore for Burroughs High in Burbank. He can run the 100 yard dash in 10.1s and the 440-yard dash in under 50 seconds. He has been playing defensive right halfback and offensive left halfback upon occasions. He carried the ball seven times in the Fullerton game and could roll up a grand total of only four yards. But that was the Fullerton line he was facing and not the Anaheim line, the line which pushed the Redskin linemen all over the field when the locals beat Fullerton several days ago 13-7. Coach Clare Van Hoorebeke will probably let everybody see action quite a bit of the game to rest his top players and not take any chances on injuries for the coming CIF playoffs in two weeks with the Bay League winner. The game tomorrow night will be played at La Palma Park in Anaheim for the second home game of the year for the locals after traveling to Santa Ana, Huntington Beach and Fullerton in what proved to be a very successful tour. Last week the locals played host to Newport Harbor and again won, but in a rather shaky manner. Illinois vs, Ohio State In Contest CHAMPAIGN, IL (UP) — The Tommy O'Connell to Rex Smith battery combination, Illinois' newest football weapon, is really old stuff. The pair first struck headlines as teammates five years ago at South Shore, Chicago's City high school gridiron team. Smith, now a 6 foot 2 inch, 199-pound junior end, migrated directly to Illinois. O'Connell, 184 pounds, spent his freshman year with Notre Dame, Irish then turned up on the Illinois campus where he waited out two years of residence to become oligible for the varsity. With three years of collegiate preparation behind him, it's little wonder that O'Connell—classed as a sophomore—is performing in the quarterback slot for the undefeated Illini like a veteran and has become one of the most fearful T-men in the Big Ten. The curly-haired, 21-year-old nomad has the potentialities to be one of the finest quarterbacks in Illinois history and is given considerable credit for steering the Illini to seven straight victories and No. 3 ranking nationally. Probably O'Connell's biggest test as a field general and triggerman will come Saturday at Ohio State. This will be an all-out game for the Illini who need only one more victory to clinch at least a share of the conference title and the Rose Bowl bid. Illinois concludes its regular season next week against Northwestern. In the Huntington Beach game the Panthers were behind at half-time 21-0 and lost the game to the Oilers 27-0 as the Oilers won their first league game in over two years. In the Santa Ana game the Orange and White clad team outdowned the victorious Saints, 14-12, and ground out more yardage on the ground, 168 to 148, but trailed in the air lanes to the Saints, 89 to 158 and that was where the Saints won the game, in the air. In the Fullerton game the Panthers tried 18 passes and completed a mere three for a total yardage gain of 42. They would break away for nice gains and would appear to be on the way to score, when out of the clear blue sky, they would tumble and the braves would recover the ball to stop the Orange drive toward the goal. Annual Tennis Matches Start Next Month Entry blanks to some 3000 tennis players in Southern California were mailed this week for the Third Annual Arcadia County Park Open Tennis championships. The events include singles in men, women, veteran, junior boys and junior girls; doubles in the men, veteran and senior mixed. Entries close Nov. 24 and the tournament starts the week-end of Dec. 1-2. Local tennis players may secure entry blanks from Mrs. Bob Williams, 405 W. Sycamore, Anaheim, or send a letter as an entry direct to the Arcadia County Park, 405 S. Santa Anita. Defending champs are Clyde Hippenstell and Mary Arnold Prentiss. Anaheim for the second home game of the year for the locals after traveling to Santa Ana, Huntington Beach and Fullerton in what proved to be a very successful tour. Last week the locals played host to Newport Harbor and again won, but in a rather shaky manner. Caldwell Calls For Outlawing Bowl Games NEW YORK (UP) — The 1950 "Coach of the year," Princeton's Charlie Caldwell, called for the outlawing of all bowl games today while the men who direct college athletics plunged headlong into the battle against football over-emphasis. Caldwell, whose Ivy League Princetonians have won 20 straight games, defended the merits of spring practice and said the sport would have no problems with commercialism if post-season games were eliminated. "If a team is good, it goes to a bowl and gets money to buy players so it can keep going to bowls," the coach added. Meanwhile, there were these other developments on the bristling college football front: 1. The council of the National Collegiate Athletic association called a meeting in Chicago for next Monday and Tuesday to formulate a definite program for the control of athletics. 2. Twenty-one of 31 schools in the mid-western area okayed recommendations of the NCAA to restrict the two-platoon system, bowl games and spring practice. Every member of the Missouri Valley and Big Seven conferences except Missouri and Iowa State was included on the deemphasis list. Smoke Screen Set For Start of Race EL PASO, Tex. (OP)—A 36-year-old Alhambra, Calif., grocery chain owner is all set to pour on the smoke in the second annual Pan-American road race. Ray Crawford, driving a 1951 Lincoln, said yesterday he has his car equipped with a special smoke attachment for a flashy start and finish. Crawford has other novel gadgets on his car for the 1933-mile race from Tuxtla Gutirrez to Juarez which starts next Tuesday. He has a movie camera mounted to film the roadside scenery and a wire recorder to take running comment by Crawford and his assistant driver, Frank Baldez. For Health. Est California Fruit!
