Basing the Sunset league standings on a point basis of 5-4-3-2-1-0 one can easily find how the schools in the league stack up in their relationship toward ending the school year with the best or highest win-loss record in all major sports. At the end of the football season Anaheim led all teams in the loop as a result of winning the varsity and Class Cee titles ending in a tie for third with Orange in Class Bee competition. But after basketball competition the standings have changed quite a bit, and for the worst, too, from the Anaheim angle, that is. Figuring just basketball on the point system listed above, one would find the Huntington Beach Oilers out in front with 18 points with Anaheim and Newport Harbor in a tie for second with 14 points. Combining the results of the final football and basketball standings one would also find the Oilers out in front with a grand total of 28½ points. Anaheim is in second spot with a total of 26½ points. Here's the picture. Final football results based on a 5-4-3-2-1 basis in all three classes: Anaheim ..... 12½ Huntington Beach ..... 10½ Santa Ana ..... 9 Fullerton ..... 7½ Orange ..... 4 Newport Harbor ..... ¼ Final basketball results: Huntington Beach ..... 18 Anaheim ..... 14 Newport Harbor ..... 14 Fullerton ..... 8 Santa Ana ..... 4 Orange ..... 2 Final results combining both the football and basketball results: Huntington Beach ..... 28½ Anaheim ..... 26½ Fullerton ..... 15½ Newport Harbor ..... 14½ Santa Ana ..... 13 Orange ..... 6 Capturing the most championships thus far this year have been Huntington Beach and Anaheim each with three. Anaheim won two in football and Huntington Beach two in basketball. In the runner-up spot the most times in both sports has been Huntington Beach while Anaheim has been in third spot the most times, three of those coming in the basketball season in Class Dee, Cee and varsity. Some reports have been floating around as to how Orange is in the wrong league; that they don't win enough; that they aren't strong enough to compete in the Sunset league. I would like to venture that they are one of the strongest: they have to be. You see, they're holding up the entire league all by themselves, and that's no easy feat, son. Colleges Waiting, Looking Carefully As Result of Ivy Loop Football Ban NEW YORK GP—The big college conferences and powerful independents were looking carefully in all directions and stepping cautiously today as a result of the Ivy League banning spring football practice. The American council on education two weeks ago drew up a drastic program to place sports in their proper niche in the academic world. The Ivy is the first group to do something about the ACE program. Reaves E. Peters, executive secretary of the Big Seven, sounded what seems to be the keynote: "We still are operating under NCAA rules. I don't think most conferences know exactly where they are going." The new NCAA rules limit members to 20 spring practice sessions within 30 days. On the Pacific Coast, California, which annually is in the race for the league football championship, is maintaining a policy of watchful waiting. "We are temporarily bidding our time here until we are fully informed of the action in its entirety," said Athletic Director Brutus Hamilton. He recently was appointed head coach of the Unit-ed States Olympic track and field team. "I am against any hosty move and would prefer to have a special meeting of the Pacific Coast Conference representatives to discuss the matter." Athletic Director Wilbur Johns of UCLA was not enthusiastic about the deemphasis program. If it were adopted, he said, "I think, offhand, we would be faced with a program whereby all college sports would be under the direction of presidents' offices and that we would have to ask the taxpayers to support them . . . we would go back pretty much to an intramural program." The Shrine East-West committee, in a statement by Assistant Managing Director Albert H. Jacobs, deplored the Ivy League ban preventing coaches and players from participating in the annual Shrine charity classic in San Francisco. The game has produced some $1,600,000 since 1925 for the San Francisco Shriners hospital for crippled children. The first meeting of the American Bowling Congress was held in Beethoven Hall in New York City, Sept. 9, 1895.

SLICE OF HAM "BUCKLEY CLAIMS IT'S MORE SANITARY THIS WAY!" Gazette SPORTS All-Sunset League Cross Country Race Held Thursday Afternoon at Huntington Beach By STAN JONES Despite Anaheim’s cross country dual meet record of 0-3 in Sunset league competition, don’t be too surprised to find the Colonists up near the head of the class tomorrow afternoon when the all-league cross country finals are held at Huntington Beach. Race time is scheduled to start at 3 p.m. Winning the unofficial dual meet championship this past season was Fullerton’s Indians with a win-loss record of 4-1 which was slightly better than runner-up Orange with their 3-1 mark. The same runners who have been running cross country these past few weeks and who will be going all out to capture one of the first five medals tomorrow as well as giving a helping hand or foot toward the team title, will be for the most part, the long distance runners of the coming track season. Cross country has never really taken hold in the Sunset league compared to other high school leagues around the Southland, but with the trend on the upswing better results from the long distance men will surely prevail in future seasons. Wonderful Conditions Cross country is a wonderful conditioner, as well as an interesting sport in itself. It takes Harbor’s undefeated, in loop competition, Raymond Stafford, who is just a little runner compared to the bigger boys such as Anhelm’s Dick Reed. Stafford was only a Class Cee runner last year, but he has been leading the field in the varsity competition this year. Orange has several top runners, the number one being Eddie Denbow. Denbow has of late had to go all out to remain the number one runner for the Panthers what with Fred Stading rounding into shape and pressing Denbow all the way. Saints Led By Truez Santa Ana is led by Don Truez, who ran Class Bee track competition last year. Truez is a long-striding runner who feels hurt if he doesn’t finish near the top of the runners. Running also for the Saints are Bill Ayalla, miler last year, Jack McCosh, Don Green, Cotler Cagers Pull Stunning Loop Upset Win Behind at half time by one point, 19-18, the cagers from Cotler turned on the scoring punt and let it run freely up and down the court last night in the Anhelm gym to pull off the circle league upset of the year. Cotler defeated the Fullerton. Andrea Lawrence Captures Second Gold Medal in Winter Olympics OSLO (AP) — America's 19-year-old skiing housewife, Mrs. Andrea Mead Lawrence of Rutland, VT, nailed to her second gold medal of the winter Olympic games today when she recovered from a bad spill and staged a spectacular comeback to win the women's slalom ski race. The flying New England captured the women's giant slalom to send the United States off to a roaring start on the opening day of the carnival last Thursday. Today's test was shorter but more difficult with more control gates. Mrs. Lawrence took too daring a chance as she cut through one of the 29 gates on her opening run down the steep, treacherous Rodkleiva course. She skidded and fell but bounced back to her feet to finish the run in one minute, 7.2 seconds. This placed her fourth in the standings behind Ossi Reichert of Germany, Celina Seghi of Italy and Madeleine Berthod of Switzerland. Comes with Determination But the young veteran, an Olympic competitor at 15, came back to the summit of the hill with determination burning in her eyes. On the second try, she swept flawlessly and recklessly down the 508-yard course which drove taken hold in the Sunset league compared to other high school leagues around the Southland, but with the trend on the upswing better results from the long distance men will surely prevail in future seasons. Wonderful Conditions Cross country is a wonderful conditioner, as well as an interesting sport in itself. It takes an awful lot of hard work to produce the good runners, but tomorrow one can find good runners all over the course. Heading the list is Newport Coach Sam Keith has pinned Saints Led By Truez Santa Ana is led by Don Truez, who ran Class Bee track competition last year. Truez is a long-striding runner who feels hurt if he doesn't finish near the top of the runners. Running also for the Saints are Bill Ayalla, miler last year, Jack McCosh, Don Green, David Bear, John Winter and Mike Esparza. Santa Ana had a dual meet record this cross country season of 2-2.

Comes with Determination But the young veteran, an Olympic competitor at 15, came back to the summit of the hill with determination burning in her eyes. On the second try, she swept flawlessly and recklessly down the 508-yard course which drops 196 yards from its peak. She was timed in an amazing one minute 3.4 seconds. It was an effort no one else could match and gave her a clocking of 2:10.6. "I knew what I had to do so I just cut loose," the tall, smiling girl said as American teammates swooped down to congratulate her. First to reach her was her husband, David, also a U.S. Olympic team member. He hugged and kissed his panting bride of a year while photographers snapped away. The brilliant double by Mrs. Lawrence climaxed the greatest ski performance by a U.S. team in the history of the winter games. She was the first American skier, male or female, even to win two Olympic titles. Gretchen Fraa Norse now have 101 points. Quarter-Final Tennis Tonight NEW YORK (F)—The quarterfinal round in the national indoor tennis championships will be filled tonight and all the favorites have relatively easy assignments. Dick Savitt of East Orange, N.J., second-seeded behind defending champion Bill Talbert, faces Dr. Reginald S. Weir of New York; third-ranked. Budge Patty goes against David Lurie of South Africa; fifth-rated Frank Guernsey plays Charles Masterson of Brooklyn, and Kurt Nielsen, of Denmark, tackles Grant Golden. Nielsen got into action for the first time last night after winning the French championship over Jaroslav Drobny, and made short work of William Lurie of New York, 6-2, 6-3. Canada's Davis cupper, Lorne Main, and 37-year-old Nils Rohlsson of Sweden, filled half the quarter-final and gave it an international flavor. Main and Rohlsson, in fact, scored mild upsets when they turned back Harold Burrows and Irvin Dorfman, respectively. Main had to come behind twice in the second set to score at 6-1, 7-5, while Rohlsson had a surprisingly easy time with Dorfman in his 6-4, 6-3 conquest.

Rough Evening for Conference Cage Teams; Indians Fall to Panthers; Hornets Stall Past Tigers, 56-31 With the crucial game Tuesday night at San Bernardino looming on the horizon both Fullerton junior college and San Berdoo's cagers had rough sailing last night. The Indians from San Bernardino didn't quite make their conquest of Chaffey as they fell after a half time lead of 40-39 to the Panthers 78-68 to drop out of a first place tie with Fullerton who defeated Riverside 56-31. In the other Eastern Conference game last night Orange Coast edged Mt. San Antonio 66-65 with Glenn Griffith, all-Sunset League center last year, scoring 26 points. It was only natural to have a let down last night for the Indians and the Hornets. Fullerton, when they found out that ace Tiger center, Don Welschedel, was out with the flu, really had a let down. San Berdoo, felt the same way Trapp, Hennings Lead Lutherans To 49-37 Win Continuing his high scoring spree last night in the Fremont gym was Lloyd Trapp of Zion Lutheran who again hit for 20 points to lead his team to a 49-37 victory over Church of Christ in the Anaheim church league race. Gil and Jerry Henning each hit when it was learned that several Chaffey players were not able to play due to having low grades in the class room. Tommy Williams however, managed to set an all-Eastern Conference scoring mark when he putted 14 points to give him a season total of 252, breaking the year-old mark set by ex-all Sunset League forward from Newport Harbor and Orange Coast college, Bob Yardley who had the mark of 245. Here are the Eastern Conference standings to date: W L Fullerton ... 10 1 San Bernardino ... 9 2 Craffey ... 6 6 Mt. San Antonio ... 5-6 Orange Coast ... 4 7 Riverside ... 4 7 Santa Ana ... 1 10 Tuesday night Fullerton and San Bernardino conclude official play in the conference at San Berdoo and a Fullerton victory would hand the Hornets their third straight title, while a Fullerton loss would throw the final standings between the two teams into a tie and force a playoff which would be held at Mt. San Antonio. Fullerton and the Indians have met twice this season—the Braves winning over the Yellow Jackets in the Chaffey tourney while the Hornets won over the Indians at Fullerton in the first round of conference play. Lead Lutherans To 49-37 Win Continuing his high scoring spree last night in the Fremont gym was Lloyd Trapp of Zion Lutheran who again hit for 20 points to lead his team to a 49-37 victory over Church of Christ in the Anaheim church league race. Gil and Jerry Henning each hit for 13 points to aid the ace forward Trapp in keeping the Lutheran team in a tie for second place in the standings. High for the losers was Bob Pickard with 15 points.

The stewards have 10 riding calls. One is for Willie Marsh, sensational 16-year-old apprentice who will ride Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney's Cold Command. Marsh won with Cold Command in an overnight race last week. Whitney and trainer Syl Veitch decided the colt earned a chance to test his speed and endurance against the likes of Windy City II, the Irish sensation that will be the odds-on favorite. Marsh will be one of the youngest if not the youngest jockey to get a chance in the big race. Haltafire, Abe Hirschberg's rapidly improving colt, worked a mile in 1:38-3/5 yesterday and trainer Frank Childs says he will be a starter. Childs hasn't found a rider, however. Windy City probably will have a stablemate in the Derby, Tiger Sir. He worked a mile in 1:38/5. Marsh will be one of the youngest if not the youngest jockey to get a chance in the big race. Haltafire, Abe Hirschberg's rapidly improving colt, worked a mile in 1:38-3/5 yesterday and trainer Frank Childs says he will be a starter. Childs hasn't found a rider, however. Windy City probably will have a stablemate in the Derby, Tiger Sir. He worked a mile in 1:39-2/5 yesterday and is considered to be much better than he has shown. The likely starters: Windy City II, Tiger Sir, Hill Gall, Whitheen, Indian Land, Marcador, Red Charger, Dark Count, Arroz, Kingly, Quick Solution, Smoke Screen, Stitch, Cold Command, All's Fair and Haltafire. All will carry 118 pounds. Announcing... The SHELL STATION at 700 N.
