Anaheim Gasette WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA St. John’s and Kansas Reach NCAA Finals SEATTLE — It will be Lovellette & Ca., of Kansas against the giant killers of St. John’s for the National Collegiate basketball crown tonight. Kansas got to the throne room doorway the easy way in the semi-finals of the NCAA playoffs last night, as Big Clyde Lovellette paced a 74-53 victory over Santa Clara. St. John’s of Brooklyn got there by the margin of a game-ending gasp, with a 61-50 win over favored Illinois. In the title classic it will be the clever passing game of St. John’s against the power that comes from having a tower of strength like 8-foot 9-inch Lovellette in the slot. The big Kansas center scored 33 points against the Santa Clara Broncos. He stood out as a playmaker and backboard bulwark as well as a scorer. His 108 points for the three-game NCAA playoff set a new record. The old mark, in four games, was 85. It was set by Don Sunderlage of Illinois last year. Kansas won a 52-51 victory over St. John’s when they met last year in Madison Square Garden. But these St. John’s hoop magicians have thrown the book out the window.

Trojan Sam Incess's new national collegiate discuss tons of 182 feet 5 inches at San Diego last Saturday is all the more remarkable when you consider how early in the season it is... Norm Stock's rapid 20.6 220 in the same meet also looks very good on paper, but eyewitnesses say you can credit it to the spanking breeze blowing in from the nearby ocean... Speaking of cinder sunnies, Craig Dixon, the ex-Braun who was supposed to be far over the hill, proved that there's still plenty of life left in those legs by challenging up these 14.4 and 23.9 hurdle times for LAAC in the dual meet with Occidental, also last Saturday... Oxy's Bull Alhans, the former NCAA champ at North Carolina, has been much slower to round into shape this year than expected... Changing seels from football to track, All-American Olive Matson, the pride of USF, shapes up as a hot Olympic prospect in the 440... In his first time trial of the year on Cat's track last weekend, Matson churned so a 9.9-100 that was dangerously close to 9.7... Matson will work up to the quarter-mile slowly.

In varsity competition Al Clayes and Joe Hoffman appear likeliest to glean points for the Colonists. Remember Spencer Killel truth in Cobb’s thorns, but it appears that Cobb has grown a bit too cynical in his advancing years. No one could find a better authority on baseball as it was played 45 or 23 years ago than that master of the art, Cobb, out the question is: After 10 many years away from the game, from even soaring much major league ball, how well informed is Cobb on baseball in its present form? Lou Sleater, pitcher for the St. Louis Browns is a flight inspector for a Baltimore aircraft firm during the off-season. Chuck Dreessen, manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, played 19 years in organized baseball; 16 of them as a third baseman.

Old Oss, himself, is easy these days. The one It was the same old story yesterday afternoon as the Anaheim Colonist track and field squad bowed to a more-rounded Newport Harbor team, 65-39, on the Sailor's oval. Clearly superior in a majority of the track events, the Colonists conceded the meet largely on their inability to show a field squad. The meet left Coach Sam Keith's cindermen winless in their third league outing of the season. Larry Kirchmann, sensational Colonist dash and middle distance man, again was the outstanding thinclad in the event, handily annexing the 100, 220 and running the anchor lap on 880 relay. Never pushed, his times were slightly slower than the record marks he chalked up in the four way meet at Huntington Beach last week—running the 100 in 10.9 and the 220 in 22.1. Ira Webber, popular student body prey, also sparkled in the day's outing—copping the 440 in 54.2 and running a neat first lap in the varsity relay, where, despite severe jostling around the east turn he overtook his man, moving into the passing zone...Newport's bad pass on the last lap then turned the event into a walk-away. Anaheim's milers, while unable to take the first spot, nabbed the next three places as Reed, Eberhard and DeLeón crossed the tape in that order. Although surely missing the services of laid-up Aaron Peralta, ace Colonist timber-topper, Anaheimer Ted Talamantez managed a fourth in the 120 highs and a second in the 180 lows. With Bill Walker and other ace Bee team men utilized to bolster the varsity, the Bees were land-slid 88 to 8 with Salazar taking the solitary first place in the broad jump with an 18'4" leap. Thirds were also racked up by Switzler in the 100, Clark in the 120 lows and Stagner in the shot put. The CEES WERE similarly Doering, won his first major tourney as a professional, taking $10,000 Greensboro open with 370. Five years ago—The Toronto Maple Leafs won the opening game in the semi-final round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, defeating Detroit Red Wings, 3-2. Ten years ago—The Cincinnati Reds purchased outfield Gerald Walker from the Cleveland Indians for a reported $20,000. Twenty years ago—Ben Eastman, Stanford Junior, ran 440-yards in 46.4 bettering the world's record by a full second. Seals Get Revenge One Year Too Late PALO ALTO — (A) The San Francisco Seals are getting revenge from the Sacramento Solons—the club that shoved them into the Pacific Coast League cellar the last day of the 1951 season. The Seals passed the Solons 5-2 yesterday, their second consecutive win. Lefty Al Lien and Rookie Kenny Wright gave up eight hits, while the Seals knocked Kenny Gables and Orville Grova for 14. Eight players on the roster of the Washington Senators hail from Cuba. None comes from Washington, D.C. Cliff Chambers, who pitched a no-hit no-run game for Pittsburgh last season and is now a member of the St. Louis Carunals, is a graduate of Washington State U. Old Oss, himself, is easy these days. The one trot star quit the game after the "cry baby" ejection Cleveland in 1940, when riders revolted at what they sideder cruel and injurious ment and forced his reentry. He never talks about that no doubt, that such a shame is best forgotten, but he remains a keen interest in the sport was his life for so long. "I don't care who the Yankees out there in centerfield-Jensen, Woodling, Cervis ever—he's not going to be DiMaggo," Oss declared. The course of a season, the difference between having Joe and another player out there came to six or eight and Stengel will find it only talking about his field. "Believe me, I know dored me in the three years at Cleveland, I can remember least a half-dozen games to those guys that we won won but for some catch or Joe made at a crucial never saw one to equal him respect." Larry Knapp, American umpire, is a licensed boxer in New York State. Matt Batts, catcher for trott Tigers, is an alumnuslor university, Waco, Tex. With Bill Walker and other ace Bee team men utilized to bolster the varsity, the Bees were land-slid 88 to 8 with Salazar taking the solitary first place in the broad jump with an 18'4" leap. Thirds were also racked up by Switzler in the 100, Clark in the 120 lows and Stagner in the shot put. THE CEES WERE similarly manhandled, 65 to 12. Their star dash man, little Mickey Gouyd, who last week smashed a school dash record, nabbed a first in the 180 in 19.9. Chambers took a second in the 100, while Koblitz, Byrd and Jopsen took thirds in the 100, 180 and high jump. SCORES (Varsity) 100 Yd.

Anahi Baseball Team Takes 9-1 Win from Corona Anaheim high school's baseball squad, with only one win in five starts this season, got back in the win column yesterday afternoon as they blasted Corona high schoolers 9-1, in a game at La Palma park. Off to a one run lead in the first inning, the Colonists set the pace with the season's first double play in the season—from Lupe Gonzales to Herbel to Hatfield. The Mayflower men forged steadily ahead in the fourth, adding two runs—then tacking on three more in both the fifth and sixth frames. Dick Ramella, Colonist hurler, was credited with the victory. Coach Clare Van Hoorebeke's JVk. meanwhile, polished off a Corona JV squad, 6-5.

The signup continues through Friday. Last year's first-string halfback Bill Powell, a senior academically who has another year of eligibility, was among the returning stars. Angels-Stars Even in Series FULLERTON UP—Stan Hack's Los Angeles club evened its exhibition series with Hollywood two games apiece. The Angels trimmed the Stars yesterday, 7 to 3, mainly through the steady pitching of Eddie Chandler. He worked the entire nine innings, handed out only seven hits, walked three and counted five. Dick Wilson nicked him a homer in the eighth. Dustin West and Gran Dunlap fashioned homers in the Angel cause. Today the Angels battle a Marine Corps team at Camp Pendleton, and the Stars meet Seattle at Palm Springs. SOME SEE CHISEOX AS MIRACLE TEAM TUCSON UP—For 41 stirring and somewhat surprising days the Chicago White Sox held the lead in the American League last year. The Sox may not add much so long this season, but there are those with the clubs who profess to believe they'll hold it which counts—the final day. Much of the optimism is based on the point that Paul Richards is manager, tactician and brunet of the outfit. He worked a small miracle in his freshman year as a major league manager. With what most critics think is a stronger club, Richards in his second go-round might do better. Out at Berkeley BERKELEY UP—Thirteen lettermen were among 70 candidates registering for California’s spring football sessions that start Monday. The signup continues through Friday. Last year’s first-string halfback Bill Powell, a senior academically who has another year of eligibility, was among the returning stars. Among the new talent were Gerald Perry, all-America junior college tackle at Compton two years ago; Michael Phelan, all-Catholic league quarterback from Loyola (Los Angeles) high and son of Jimmy Phelan, coach of the Dallas pro grid club; and Bill McCandish, all-Big Seven tackle last year at City College of San Francisco.
