USC Trojans Meet Bruins In Top Game LOS ANGELES (P) — There's little at stake except runnerup laurels in the Pacific Coast conference race, local prestige and a large, loud-gonging victory bell. But if good weather prevails, 75-000 football fans are expected to watch tomorrow's 2 p.m. struggle in the Coliseum between UCLA and Southern California. The two will meet for the 21st time, with Coach Jess Hill's Trojans of USC solid favorites to win and avenge a 39-0 plastering administered by the Bruins a year ago. A victory by USC, coupled with a win by California over unbeaten Stanford, would give the Trojans a tie for the conference championship. It would hardly send USC to the Rose Bowl, however, because Stanford hung a loss on Troy. A triumph for Coach Henry R. (Red) Sanders' Uclan would give the team the number two spot in the PCC windup. The Trojans, who will hold a marked weight advantage over the Westwood brigade on both offense and defense as well as a bulky 12-3-4 record in their crosstown series, are favored for several reasons. For one, they have been beaten but once, by Stanford, with wins over such teams as Texas Christian, California and Washington. WHERE DO WE GO FROM HERE? Just what can the masterminds of the country come up with now to cope with all the general feeling prevailing about college sports, football bowl games, over emphasis of sports on the national level, the evil system of commercialism in sports sport being big business and so on down the long line. It all must stop sometime and somewhere, but when and how? That seems to be the feeling right now, wait and see what the college administrators plan to do about their problem child of recent years, college sports. People are getting tired of hearing about all the corruption in sports; want something dohe right away. They want to go back to the peaceful days (whenever that was) and be able to read about subjects other than basketball scandals. New Year's bowl games being banned and college football players being paid to play for more or less commercial institutions. The sport of sport has definitely arrived to a point where it should and needs to be de-emphasized and soon, but the problem now is just how to go about such a maneuver. Where does one start such a large task and what will the general public say about such a maneuver as stopping sports or at least slowing them down out as is the whole sports on the collegiate level on each college school, but rather different clubs and Dana X. Bible, UTexas athletic director that collegiate football gotten off-side a little times, but declared a football far out-weight. "It's just another need for a comment into the subject and from the good." Matty Bell, athlete of SMU (Texas) qo to what is wrong with offering and granting scholarships to deserving students. He skates given to boys who, he would be unable to college without the assistance of some people that big fault with this season some of the fixtures have in athletics. O are among the first men in the country that way at most leagues." One of the best so-called posals offered is the college sports to the level on each college not have competitive schools, but rather different clubs and The Trojans, who will hold a marked weight advantage over the Westwood brigade on both offense and defense as well as a bulky 12-3-4 record in their crosstown series, are favored for several reasons. For one, they have been beaten but once, by Stanford, with wins over such teams as Texas Christian, California and Washington. The Bruins have lost three games and been tied by Washington. SAN FRANCISCO (UP) — Ten Korean war brides and their soldier husbands hope to leave for their new homes in the United States today, anxious yet a bit apprehensive about meeting in-laws they’ve never seen. NEW YORK (UP)—An agreement between the United States Steel Corp., and the Venezuelan government provides for a river-dredging operation which eventually will mean more iron ore for U.S. defense effort.

Center, Anaheim Phone Anaheim 5191 TODAY’S CROSS-WORD PUZZLE The sport of sport has definitely arrived to a point where it should and needs to be de-emphasized and soon, but the problem now is just how to go about such a maneuver. Where does one start such a large task and what will the general public say about such a maneuver as stopping sports or at least slowing them down to a more sane and civil pace? Feelings are running about that one solution would be to outlaw post season games in football and for that manner, basketball and all sports. The people want to ban all colleges from playing games on New Year’s day, months after the regular season has ended. Others feel that spring practice should be prohibited on the college campus and most probably in the high schools also. There is also the set of well wahers that want sports taken from the colleges all together while some others think the idea of rotating coaches from school to school is the solution. Some factions feel that schools should change their teams around each year or maybe every two years and that would certainly put a crimp on the alumni, some feel, that is. But one just can’t sit and wait. One must keep working for an end. Already some schools have abandoned spring football practice; others have given up football altogether. College presidents are saying that they don’t favor bowl trips and that the recruiting of college athletes is on the way.

PIER PH OPEN ALL DA out as is the whole realm of sports on the college level. But the thing can be carried a wee bit too far. Definitely the sport of football as well as the whole sporting set-up needs cleaning, but it shouldn't be junked and tossed aside as some people are wishing and stating. Dana X. Bible, University of Texas athletic director, conceded that collegiate football "may have gotten off-side a little bit," sometimes, but declared the good in football far out-weighs the bad. "It's just another indication of the need for a committee to look into the subject and sift the bad from the good." Matty Bell, athletic director of SMU (Texas) questions us to what is wrong with schools offering and granting athletic scholarships to deserving individuals. He states, "these are given to boys, who, in the main, would be unable to attend college without the assistance." I wish some people that are finding fault with this set-up would meet some of the fine boys we have in athletics. Our athletes are among the finest young men in the country and it is that way at most of the colleges." One of the best sounding proposals offered is the limiting of college sports to the fraternity level on each college campus and not have competition between schools, but rather between the different clubs and departments. 1951 STANFORD OFFENSIVE TEAM—With only the California-Stanford game standing between them and almost certain choice for the 1952 Rose Bowl game, Stanford will field this offensive team (above) against the Bears at Palo Alto (Nov. 24).

Line, left to right: Bill McColloch Broderick, tackle; Jack Bonnetti, Garner, center; Norm Manoogian, Vick, tackle; Bill Storum, end—Press Wirephoto) Big Bob Baker Vs Henry in Boxing One of the best sounding proposals offered is the limiting of college sports to the fraternity level on each college campus and not have competition between schools, but rather between the different clubs and departments on each school campus, but that too presents problems, but on a much smaller scale. It would, however, ruin the financial end of athletics in short order, but would on the other hand set up more or less a barrier between students on one campus that would be sitting in the same class room, but that is just one idea from hundreds. Sports need and probably will get a de-emphasis program in the very near future and it will all probably be for the better and will be met with bitter and happy remarks all around the country. Nobody will be satisfied for a long time after any action is taken, but whether they are or not something will and must be done, but just how and where will it leave the high school athlete, the growing boy? Insult Fires Up Cougars for Shot At Washington SEATTLE (UP)—More concerned with stopping fullback Hugh McEhenry than gaining revenge for a year-old “insult.” Washington State’s Cougars head into Seattle tomorrow to take on the University of Washington Huskies. The so-called insult concerns the handling of a touchdown to the Staters last year so Washington could get its hands on the ball again to give All-America Don Heinrich a chance to crack a national pass record. Heinrich did, but his record was broken last week. WASHINGTON (UP)—The prices of Packard motor cars are due to rise tomorrow. And in some areas there may be an increase soon in the Rose Bowl game, Stanford will field this offensive team (above) against the Bears at Palo Alto (Nov. 24).

This is the showpiece for both boys. They’re climbing steadily up the ladder. Baker, unbeaten in 26 bouts, has moved to a No. 4 ranking. Henry, with a 28-21 record, is right behind Baker. A crowd of 7000 or 8000 probably will watch them in Madison Square but other fans will eye their clash via NBC’s network telecast. ABC will handle the broadcast. The 10 rounder will start at 7 p.m. PST. “This is it,” said Baker. “This is my big chance. Make a hit in New York and on TV and you’re in the dough. I guess Henry feels the same way. It will be blood and guts in there.” Henry, who stands 5, 11½ and weighs 184, will spot the 6-1½ Baker about 28 pounds. Baker, thinned by constant-fighting, expects to weigh about 212. He weighed 225 last August when he outpointed Ormelio Agramonte. Bob’s perfect record was spoiled 11 days ago by Kid Rlviera who held him to a draw in Cincinnati. Baker, a fast puncher, has scored 17-knockouts. Henry, winner of 11 straight, has 15 kayos to his credit.

Tennessee and Kentucky, both already invited to Jan. 1 bowls, clash at Lexington in what looms as the chief attraction of the afternoon. Tennessee, the nation’s No. 1 team until proven otherwise, already is in the Sugar Bowl against Maryland. Kentucky, beat three times but improving each week, has accepted a Cotton Bowl berth. Tennessee, which upset Kentucky last year, is a seven point choice over the Wildeats, the nation’s No. 9 club. But from the Big Ten, the Southwest and the Pacific Coast sectors, bowl and would-be bowlers tangle in important struggles. Three Big Ten teams still with a chance for the Rose Bowl share mid-west attention. Illinois, with the inside track, can clinch it with victory or even a tie against northwestern at Evanston, Ill. Purdue meets Indiana, and Wis. Aussie Pair In Rally of US Cup Duo SYDNEY, Australia (UP)—Frank Sedgman and Gen McGregor of Australia came from behind today to beat Ted Schroeder and Tony Trabert of the United States, 6-8, 6-8, 4-6, 2-10, in the finals of the New South Wales Doubles consin, the No. 8 team plays Minnesota.

FIRESTONE BLVD., NORWALK PHONE TO/REY 4-2743 OPEN ALL DAY SATURDAY and SUNDAY SYDNEY, Australia (P)—Frank Sedgman and Gen McGregor of Australia came from behind today to beat Ted Schroeder and Tony Trabert of the United States, 6-8, 6-8, 4-6, 6-2, 10-8, in the finals of the New South Wales Doubles tennis championship. The gruelling five-sot match lated two hours and 15 minutes. The veteran Schroeder of La Crescenta, Calif., and 19-year-old Trevert of Cincinnati appeared to have the match won on several occasions, but Sedgman and McGregor always rallied. In the tense fifth and deciding set Schroeder and Trabert twice broke through Sedgman's service to lake what appeared to be a commanding 5 to 3 lead. But the Aussies blasted through Trabert's service to again get back into the running. At 8-8 the Aussies again cracked Trabert's service to go ahead at 9-8. McGregor, who didn't lose on his service during the match, then served up a love game to take the set and the match. ANAHEIM TRUCK & TRANSFER CO. MOVING - STORAGE General Trucking PHONE 2123 505 S. Los Angeles St. Anahiem 2 Anaheim Gazette FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1951 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Harriers Compete Against Top Men, Teams in Section Running and staggering against the top high school long-distance runners of the year, Anaheim cross country team did very well in the annual Compton high school cross country race held at Compton Junior college Wednesday afternoon. The first three finishers were the top long distance runners in CIF competition last year and as a result of their speedy running Wednesday they are taking right up where they left off last June. Winning the 1.8 mile race which was over a football field, between school buildings, across a bridge, down a main throughfare and finishing up in some lady's back yard, was Charles Strong of Compton who rambled the distance in 8 minutes 50 seconds. The course record is 8:40 set by this same Strong only two weeks ago, but in much drier weather, not the mud and goo that greeted the runners Wednesday. Strong last year was running the mile in the fast time of 4:33.4 which was good enough to rank in the top three in the Southland. He didn't compete in the CIF finals, due to illness. Finishing second to Strong Wednesday was little Dave Rodriguez of Downey who just base-ly edged out third placer, Fernando Ledesma of the host school, Compton high. Rodriguez placed second in the class Bee-1320 yard run last year in the CIF finals at Davis inches back. Anaheim was the only entry representing the Sunset League and having never run the course before, did very well. It was the first race of the year for the local harriers and definitely served as a basis for comparison with individual and team marks. Their next race will be Friday afternoon at Long Beach in the CIF championship preliminaries and as a result of the meet being so early in the year, the meet Wednesday at Compton was certainly a helping factor in getting the boys in shape. First ten finishers of the Compton Invitational cross country run Wednesday: 1. Strong, Compton; 2. Rodrequez, Downey; 3. Ledesma, Compton; 4. Way, Bellflower; 5. Hadley, Bellflower; 6. Saxton, Downey; 7. Schwerhart, Whittier; 8. Banks, Mark Keppel; 9. Mayshack, Compton; 10. Maciel, Whittier. First eight team finishers: 1. Compton 49; 2. Downey 62; 3. Bellflower 66; 4. Whittier 76; Football Nears End Season Saturday consin, the No. 8 team this week, plays Minnesota. The situation is full of "ifs." Stanford, unbeaten in nine games and certain to be the host Pacific Coast team in the Rose Bowl, meets California in the far west's stellar attraction at Palo Alto. Stanford rules a 6½ point choice. The Indians are the No. 3 team in the land. Detroit Lions Eye NFL Title After Victory DETROIT (UP)—The title hungry Detroit Lions will eye the outcome of the National Football League clash between the champion Cleveland Browns and Chicago Bears Sunday as keenly as any fan. "We'll take the Western division title if somebody can knock the Bears off for us," agree coach Buddy Parker and his Lions. Detroit boomed into a first place tie in the National division with the Bears and Los Angeles Rams by a 52-35 victory over the Green Bay Packers yesterday. The Lions showed explosive power to 33,452 Thanksgiving fans in the stands and thousands more at television screens. Trailing 21-10, jamed across six touchdowns in the second and third periods. The Lions, Bears and Rams have each won six and lost two. Detroit has a tie that may hurt in the long run. But if the Bears falter before the Browns—who lead the American division and are top heavy favorites to get into the NFL play was good enough to rank in the top three in the Southland. He didn't compete in the CIF finals, due to illness. Finishing second to Strong Wednesday was little Dave Rodriguez of Downey who just basey edged out third place, Fernando Ledesma of the host school, Compton high. Rodriguez placed second in the class Bee 1320 yard run last year in the CIF finals at Long Beach and recorded a mile time of 4:42.8 during the year. Ledesma won the CIF mile title last year in the speedy time of 4:34.1, but he had a better time set earlier in the year when he scooted the four laps in 4:31.6. Dick Reed of Anaheim led the Colonist colors across the finish line, running in 34th spot. He finished the race in the time 10:15 while Bruce Horner placed 45th with the time 10:30. Other Anaheim finishers were Erland Eberhard who crossed the finish line in 53rd spot, Cecil Veyna, 56 and Don Davis 57th in a field of 63 runners. Veyna hit the finish line in the time of 10:53 with Auto Race Nears End with Troy Ruttman Second MEXICO CITY (UP) — Pan-American auto race drivers got a full day's rest today while their stock cars were tuned for the final three laps from Durango to the U.S. border at Ciudad Juarez (El Paso, Tex.). With 1266 miles (2039 kilometers) of dangerous mountain curves and burning straightaways behind them, the 38 remaining cars of 105 starters still had the fastest stretches ahead. Tomorrow's Durango-Parral lap of 251 miles (404 kilometers) takes the race well out of mountainous central Mexico. There is only one important drop and climb near Hulchapa. The highway dives 2200 feet (700 meters) into a valley and then climbs out again. The leader at Durango was Piero Taruffi, of Italy, piloting a Ferrari. He was trailing in 14th place the first day climbed to this height on Wednesday. 1. Strong, Compton; 2. Rodriguez, Downey; 3. Ledesma, Compton; 4. Way, Bellflower; 5. Hadley, Bellflower; 6.
