Anaheim Gazette TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Cee Gridders Leave Wake of Marks That Show Their Vaunted Power Completely outclassing their opponents this past season was the Anaheim Cee football team who not only beat the enemy on the field, but beat them in just about every statistical department as well, which really goes to show how great the locals were. Not always do statistics bear up the manner of a team's showing on the field. Sometimes a team may not collect very many first downs, but still manage to win the game or they may be losing by a few points while not even "in the game" statistic wise, but they could put on a last minute rally and win the game while trailing in all other departments. But that wasn't the case of the Colonist Cees this past year. For example they rolled up a tremendous total of 887 yards on the ground with Mickey Gouyd, Leroy Weaver, Lupe Gonzales and Henry Herrera all running for over 100 yards each. Gouyd, right halfback, led in the "Century Club" with a large total of 347 yards for the five league games for a nifty 10.2 average per carry. Paul Grover, left-handed T-quarterback and ace signal caller, threw for a total 391 yards through the air, completing 23 passes in 55 attempts. He had only three intercepted, two by defending champs, Fullerton. Left end Jerry Nielson caught the most passes on the team (9), but took a back seat to right end Ron Sabo for the greatest yardage rolled up on pass receiving. Sabo, the team's punter, caught passes for a total yardage gain of 187. Nielson had 137 yards. Sabo scored three time for six point tallies while Nielson tallied twice. Contest Has Top Choices In Final Like the usual last-minute rush for certain commodities, the weekly Gazette-Merchant football contest also brought a rush for the next-to-last, contest and again a rash of entries from out-of-town, but the local "brains" were just too much for the foreigners. R. L. Kirk of 110 E. Valencia waltzed off with the first prize foot while Frank Doretti Jr., tied for second place with a beachcomber from Redondo Beach. Shoppers brought to Anaheim by the Gazette and Gazette Shopper broke in to the winners' circle this week. Previously there had been a heavy flurry of entries from points outside of Anaheim.

Shoppers brought to Anaheim by the Gazette and Gazette Shopper broke in to the winners' circle this week. Previously there had been a heavy flurry of entries from points outside of Anaheim—but the Anaheimers were the best pickers. This week, however, J. C. McCurtain, or Redondo Beach, was a second place winner and Esther Shields, of Santa Ana, was a third place winner: All other top pickers are from Anaheim. In this week's contest, the last of the season, there will be several top contests that will surely give the second guessers loss of sleep over their selections. Toughies will be Princeton and Dartmouth, Southern California and UCLA, Illinois and Northwestern, Purdue and Indiana, Ohio State and Michigan, Tennessee and Kentucky, T.C.U. and Rice, Stanford and California and Washington and Washington State.

Washington Bees Fall in 13-6 Football Game Thomas Jefferson took over second place in the "B" League of the Recreation department's Juvenile Football schedule, as they whipped Washington 13-6. Scanning Sports BY STAN JONES • Tackle and of late fullback for the Anaheim Ree football team, Tel Tanaka, was elected by his teammates as the most valuable player on the squad for the third straight year. It couldn't have gone to a more deserving athlete. Tanaka was always, always playing the game hard, steady and clean. He never gave an inch of ground and when the backfield became shot full of holes he moved into the fullback spot to fill the weak gap and although having never played in the backfield befbre he performed his duty in rough and ready fashion. Selected as captains for the Bees were John Wright at center and Bill Wright at right halfback. Both played most of every game and were the mainstays of the team that started out in fiery fashion, faltered mid-way through the schedule, then came on with a rush to tie for third spot in the league race. • Last spring the Sunset League administrators decided to award to the school winning the most sports through the year a trophy and this honor would be decided at the end of the year in June in regard to how each team in Class A, B, and C ended the league race in all sports that are participated in by all league members. What with Anaheim winning two league titles already this season in football and ending in a tie for third place on the list of statistics found on this page is the total yardage gain from scrimmage. The Colonists had a total of 887 yards which surely must be a Sunset League record as some of the other figures must be. However, since complete records are not kept on the Coe teams around the league it is needless to say that this or that is a loop record, although it seems very likely that it is. • The game scheduled for Friday night at Bellflower, between the Buccaneers and Colonist basketball teams has been cancelled due to the fact that the local team has only been out since yesterday afternoon and the Bucs have been in hard practice since the first of the month. However, both teams will meet Tuesday in the local gym. • Tomorrow afternoon at 12:30 head track coach Sam Keith takes his Anaheim cross country run for the first time in the school's history. The race starts at 2:34 and will be run over a mile and eight-tenths course. • One thousand seats at the Fullerton stadium go on sale for $1.50 in the reserved section which will be on the west side of the field, under the press box. The occasion will be the Harriers Ease Annual Comet Cross Country Track season gets tomorrow when there is no cross country coaching of Sam Keith for the trip to Compete. They will then enter annual Compton Invitation country contest that near record number entered this year. Ski between 18 and 20 each school enteringners. A trophy will be given to the school with the lowest number of points. The winning school with the lowest number of points which much the same way over mud holes, plow water patches, pavement grass and a couple of cinder tracks. Runners will be Ed Hardy, Don Davis, D.Bruce Horner and C.Coe All were on the local last year except Herman transformed from a farmhouse into a city park. Washington Bees Fall in 13-6 Football Game Thomas Jefferson took over second place in the "B" League of the Recreation department's Juvenile Football schedule, as they whipped Washington 13-6. Washington started off as if they intended to trounce Jefferson as they did in the first round, as Le Roy Fry went 55 yards for a touchdown on the third play of the ball game to put Washington ahead 6-0. Mike McGuveny was stopped short of the goal line when he tried to run over for the conversion. This lead was short-lived, though, as David Maxim ran 48 yards for the tying touchdown, and when Dave ran over for the conversion, Jefferson led 7-6 again in the second quarter it was David Maxim who scored for Jefferson. This time it was a 17-ard jault around end. Conversion failed, and the final score lead Jefferson 13, Washington 6. Remember Speed Kills! to award to the school winning the most sports through the year a trophy and this honor would be decided at the end of the year in June in regard to how each team in Class A, B, and C ended the league race in all sports that are participated in by all league members. What with Anaheim winning two league titles already this season in football and ending in a tie for third spot in the other division, the Colonists have a slight edge at the end of the first sport. Since there are six teams in the league one could award six points to the winner and five to the runner up and so on down the line, ending up with one point for the last place team. By this manner Anaheim would end up with 15½ points to runner up Huntington Beach who would have 13½, followed by Santa Ana with 12. Fullerton 11½, Orange 7½ and Newport Harbor 3. (That must be some kind of record—going 15 games and not winning one game, that's the case of Newport Harbor. On the other hand Anaheim has competed in 15 league games and lost only two while tying one, all which were at the expense of the Bee team). A subject that will always be interesting to read and learn about will be and still is the subject of the 1951 Anaheim Cee football team. Statistics have just been compiled and although they prove conclusive the manner the Cees won their games, they still don't tell how decisive the Colonists won their league games. Anaheim had a grand total of 180 points to their credit while they limited the opposition to a mere 20. They scored 59 points in the first quarter and 73 in the second quarter. The most outstanding figure on Compton Invitation cross country run for the first time in the school's history. The race starts at 2:34 and will be run over a mile and eight-tenths course. One thousand seats at the Fullerton stadium go on sale for $1.50 in the reserved section which will be on the west side of the field, under the press box. The occasion will be the Santa Monica-Anaheim football CIF playoff game. But Anaheim will be under a terrific strain to get another tackle ready to take the place of injured Glenn Kaminsky, who broke his arm in the final league game of the season. For the first time since the start of the Anaheim Bee tourney way back in 1939 or '40, the Colonists will not hold the popular tournament at the gym. The league officials voted to discontinue the games due to the hard problem of getting officials. It was run in conjunction with the varsity cage tourney at Huntington Beach and the Bonita Bee tourney and so after weeks of deliberation, the Anaheim basketball Bee tournament will not be held for the first time in many a year. The Bees will still enter into tournament play; they will compete in the Bonita tourney where last year they reached the semi-finals and possibly in the popular and colorful Santa Monica tourney where last season they reached the quarterfinal round. WASHINGTON (AP) — Almost half the experts from Germany's top world war two guided missile project are now settled down with their families at Redstone Arsenal, Huntsville, Ala., helping develop missile weapons for the United States.

Becker B Fall to Vale And Bleak "Lord" Blears, monogamous British Empire champion, last night took Billy Vargas to score of three fall, but unopportunity over George and Becker before approximate fans at the Orange Couleeletic club. The match marked thirteen years' absence, but his last night, coupled with only added numbers to try want to see him defeat good, and Varga along wiht Attendance was off due rain, but those who brave late evening downfall warded with one of them most hectic programs and match that was craining action, despite its unpopular come. Blears and Varga won and third and almost owing ring riot protesting their fall win of the popular Cecil Payne referred. "Mad Mel" Peters was be tied and almost was match with Dr. Lee Grahawk hypnotist. Dr. Grahawk w straight after quite a time Cowboy Bob Clay took of three from Red Shoes. Curtain to Fall on J.C. Football Thursday at Santa Ana Bowl, 2 p.m. Ringing down the curtain on the 1951 football season, the Santa Ana College Dons will engage the Hornets from Fullerton J. C. Thanksgiving Day at 2 p.m. in the Santa Ana Municipal Bowl. In this annual classic between the two schools which dates back to 1921, both Fullerton and Santa Ana will be evenly matched as they take the field. The Dons have a slightly more impressive conference record for the season, but conference standings don't mean a thing in this rival clash as was demonstrated last season when the Hornets battled the then league leading Dons to an 18-18 deadlock. Power Over Tigers 35-18 Back in the win column after defeating Chaffey college 35-18 last week, the Dons under the coaching of Bill Cook and John Ward will have the team in top shape as several of the Cookmen came off the injured list to see action in last week's game and will be ready to give their full support Thursday, Marvin Kravitz, Jim Matsunaga, Wayne Schnakenberg, and Denny Sampson, four Don linemen, returned to the lineup after injuries had sidelined them earlier in the season. Scores Three Times The Dons showed signs of playing the brand of football they are capable of playing as the hard charging line opened up the Chaffey defense for the backfield. Bob Umphress romped for three touchdowns on runs of 29, 10 and 14 yards. Milton Wilkert broke through the Panther line for a 34-yard TD which was called back because of a clipping penalty and then five minutes later again went off right tackle for 33 yards and the touchdown. A fourth quarter Panther drive was stopped when Del Broomell intercepted a Chaffey pass and ran 46 yards to score. Jack Wilcox made all five conversions good on the try for extra point. Both Fullerton and Santa Ana will be "up" for this game, as the school winning the Turkey Day scramble can consider the season a success despite previous losses. A large trophy presented last year by the Fullerton Touchdown Club and the Santa Ana Second Guessers Club goes to the winner of this annual event. Because of the tie in last year's game, the trophy was held for an equal period of time by each of the schools. A terrific blow was dealt Anaheim varsity football this past week end when learned that Glenn Kant tackle on the league championship team had a broken leash and would definitely be out of the Santa Monica game No. Kaminsky received the blow in the final league of the season at La Palma against Orange, the next place team in the final standings. He was an outing player in the game, striving a potential Panther scoring all by himself. Midway in the second half a very fast and shifty P back crashed through the midst line and took off headlong the goal line with no players tween him and the goal line he didn't score as Kaminsky came from behind to pull down on the four yard line where the Colonists held and over on downs. Gazette SPORTS Harriers Enter Annual Compton Cross Country Track season gets under way tomorrow when the local Colonist cross country team, under the coaching of Sam Keith, will leave the school by bus at 12:30 for the trip to Compton High. They will then enter the annual Compton Invitational cross country contest that will have a near record number of schools entered this year. Signed up are between 18 and 20 schools with each school entering five runners. A trophy will be awarded to the school with the least number of points. The winning team is the school with the lowest number of points which are figured much the same way as golf with low number being high for the course. Medals will be awarded to the first five placers which finish the mile and eight-tenths course over mud holes, plowed up turf, water patches, paved streets, grass and a couple of laps of the cinder track. Runners will be Erblin Eberhard, Don Davis, Dick Reed, Bruce Horner and Cecil Veyna. All were on the local track team last year except Horner who transformed into a professional athlete. Basketball Season Officially Opens With Large Turnout of 32 Players Basketball season officially got underway yesterday on the local high school campus despite half of the squad still out on the football field working out for their CIF game in two weeks with Santa Monica. Head basketball coach for the coming year, Clare Van Hoorebeke, will not step into the gym to direct his charges until the Colonist lose a football game and that will not be until at least Nov. 30. Led By Coach Hunstock Thirty-two players reported to Bill Hunstock who is working out with the Bees and varsity each afternoon in preparation for their season opener a week from today with Bellflower in the local gym. Hunstock is the regular Bee cage coach, but will direct both teams until he gets further coaching help. As of now, there is no Bee team, but all 32 players and the ones yet to report, will all be classified as varsity players. There is no Bee basketball team on the high school campus. The Friday game with Bellflower there was cancelled due to the limited time the locals had for no one and games must be played to get the players in shape for tournament play, even though practice would probably be more beneficial for them. Players reporting for duty in the high school gym yesterday were Bill Ames, George Bishop, Elma Clamp, Joe Clark, Fred Frank, Gene Gibson, Gayle Herbel, Hart Hessell, Don Isbell, Fred Sanchez, Hiroshi Shinota, Darrell Meade, Jon Wright, Paul Salazar, Rod Lee, Ben Mattox and Lonnie Jenkins. Ben Karcher, Don Sandersfeld, Ron Gayler, Gene Reed, Pat Roberts, Dennis Nelson, Davis Moody, Don Moulden, Frank Navarro, Allen Szahffer, Tom Burns, Gary Knox, Bud Knox, Dick Ioussau, John Lee, Jim Vincent, Bob Stewart, Rod Nelson and Mike Beach. Not all were there yesterday, only 32, but more are expected today and tomorrow. Medals will be awarded to the first five placers which finish the mile and eight-tenths course over mud holes, plowed up turf, water patches, paved streets, grass and a couple of laps of the cinder track. Runners will be Erblin Eberhard, Don Davis, Dick Reed, Bruce Horner and Cecil Veyna. All were on the local track team last year except Horner who transferred here from Ohio. Horner is supposedly a miler although he has scooted the mile in fairly fast time. Davis is a 660 runner last year, while the others-stuck to the 1320 yard run. Becker Boys Fall to Varga And Blears "Lord" Blears, monocle-wearing British Empire wrestling champion, last night teamed with Billy Vargas to score a two-out-of-three fall, but unpopular victory over George and Bobby Becker before approximately 600 fans at the Orange County Athletic club. The match marked the return of Blears to this section after a year's absence, but his presence last night, coupled with Varga only added numbers to those who want to see him defeated—but good, and Varga along with him. Attendance was off due to the rain, but those who braved the late evening downfall were rewarded with one of the season's most hectic programs and a team match that was crammed with action, despite its unpopular outcome. Blears and Varga won the first and third and almost caused a big riot protesting the middle fall win of the popular Leckers. Cecil Payne refereed. "Mad Mel" Peters was fit to be tied, and almost was in his match with Dr. Lee Grable, the hypnotist. Dr. Grable won two straight after quite a time of it. Cowboy Bob Clay took two out of three from Red Shoes Dugan. Coach, but will direct both teams until he gets further coaching help. As of now, there is no Bee team, but all 32 players and the ones yet to report, will all be classified as varsity players. There is no Bee basketball team on the high school campus. The Friday game with Bellflower there, was cancelled due to the limited time the locals had to work out. Bellflower has been hard at work since the start of the month while the Colonists just started and they felt they really wouldn't learn anything in having such a game when the players definitely would not be ready. Won't Be Ready They still won't be ready for a game Tuesday, but time waits. Horace Mann in Easy 19-8 Win Over Jefferson. Horace Mann breezed by another ball game in the Recreation department's Juvenile Football League, as they defeated Thomas Jefferson 19-8 on the City park gridiron yesterday. Louis Acosta got Mann off to an early start when he took the ball 35 yards for a touchdown in the first series of downs. Try for conversion was no good, and Mann led 6-0. In the second half Horace Mann sent-Billy Larson 5 yards around end, on the first play, for a TD and when the conversion again failed Mann led 12-0. Then in the fourth quarter Billy Larson passed to Dewaine Harrison for the final Mann touchdown. Bill then threw a pass to Robert Godoy for the conversion, and Mann led 19-0.
