ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA
Colonists Meet Chaffey at
Taking It Easy
with TOM MARQUIS
(Gazette Sports Editor)
Football fans will have a chance to see their high school team in action at La Palma tonight. It resembles last year's championship team very little. The uniforms are the same, the players, for the most part, are different.
What remains to be seen is if they have the fighting spirit of last year's champs. If they have it, they will be a championship ball club whether they win any league titles or not.
Winning games depends a lot on mental attitude. Coach Van Hoorebeke has stressed that fact, national authorities on the subject have stressed that fact. They were referring of course to the mental attitude of the players.
But there is another group whose mental attitude can influence the outcome of football games. That group is the one which lives in the area where a team is playing. If they follow their team's activities closely, attend their games faithfully, and cheer their team vigorously, they can help win ball games.
If they follow the team only when it is winning and drop them the first time they lose, they can do a lot of harm.
Whether this year's team takes the league title or not, they are worthy of your support. They have put in long hours preparing for their games, some players even quitting lucrative summer jobs two weeks early in order to make the start of practice.
Give them your support and they'll give you some exciting football in return.
Every year about this time, sports writers all over the country are forced to wager their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor on the outcome of certain football games. They get pressured into predicting the outcome of games they will never witness, played by teams they rarely see.
Well, that time has come around to this office, so here goes my neck, way out where someone can lop it off.
Though Anahi is nominally the underdog in tonight's game with Chaffey, I'll pick them to win. They have a game under their belts and the Tigers are playing their first
Every year about this time, sports writers all over the country are forced to wager their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor on the outcome of certain football games. They get pressured into predicting the outcome of games they will never witness, played by teams they rarely see.
Well, that time has come around to this office, so here goes my neck, way out where someone can lop it off.
Though Anahi is nominally the underdog in tonight's game with Chaffer, I'll pick them to win. They have a game under their belts and the Tigers are playing their first game. The Colonists proved they were scrappers in last week's game with Redlands and the scrap and the one-game experience should see them to a win.
In tonight's game at the Coliseum I'll take USC. Jess Hill's team is loaded and they will be trying hard to hit the Rose Bowl this year. Hard enough so they will even want to look extra good in non-conference games.
Tomorrow, TCU is the choice over UCLA in the Coliseum. After witnessing last week's game between Oregon and UCLA, I'd pick Podunk Tech over the Bruins. Paul Cameron's return may make this prediction all wet. I hope it does.
Farther from home, Cal should take Missouri and Washington State should beat the Stanford Indians at Pullman.
Back home again, Santa Ana's Dons get a "pick-in-the-dark" choice over the U. S. Naval Air Facility game at Inyokern tonight and Pulerton JC gets the nod over Redlands.
This isn't "taking it easy", it's doing it the hard way.
USC Favored in Intersectional Clash with Northwestern 'Cats
By ROB MYERS
LOS ANGELES (AP)—There'll be a strenuous test, as well as a major intersectional encounter, in Memorial coliseum tonight when Northwestern from the Big Ten and Southern California of the Pacific Coast conference tangle in a football game at 8:30 p.m.
Upwards of 65,000 fans, barring possible showers, are expected.
SC Favored
Southern Cal is the favorite, by about seven points. This is possibly because the Trojans have played one game, outscooring Washington State 35-7, while Northwestern will be making its first start of the new season.
Too, the Trojans rate high in the Rose bowl race out here, while the Wildcats, according to Midwest experts, are rated in the second division of the Big Ten.
No one with an ounce of sense or a minute's memory would dare underrate Northwestern or any other team in the Big Ten. Events in the Rose bowl the past six years bears this out.
Last week Coach Jess Hill's Trojans scored one touchdown on one lone sustained drive. They scored four more on two pass interception runbacks, one punt return and one after a break on a fumble.
Key Backs
Tonight Hill presumably has strengthened his offense, utilizing his two key halfbacks or tailbacks, in the same backfield.
Thus Trojan fans are expected to see Troy's best runner, 185-pound Al Carmichael, and the best passer, Rudy Bukich, playing together instead of alternating.
The two, in effect essaying a double tailback attack in Hill's single wing style, were not named as a pair in the starting lineup, however. Aramis Dandoy was named for the right half, Carmichael at left, big Charley Ane at quarter and Leon Sellers at full.
Michigan State Gets Big Test
SET FOR ACTION — Lin Ochoa, left, and Tom Berg plenty of action in tonight Chaffey at La Palma park.
Princeton-Columbia
By HUGH FULLERTON, Jr.
NEW YORK (P)—Princeton and Columbia clash Saturday in this week's nation wide television football game and it probably will be a revelation to spectators who think platoon football means having players three deep on both the offensive and defensive squads.
Stanneh Advocate
Columbia Coach Lou Little, a staunch advocate of the platoon system and an old hand at rebuilding shattered football teams plans to use five of his linemen both ways to stretch out his thin material. Princeton's Charley Caldwell also is doing some stretching. But he has followed a different system, shifting defensive players to strengthen the offense.
In both cases, there's likely to be a sharp drop in the quality of performances if one of the first stringers is forced to give way to a substitute. Princeton, unbeaten in its last 22 games, has a big squad that includes solid reserves.
This Might be Flat New York Yanks;
By ORLO ROBERTSON
Associated Press Sports Writer
This is flag day for the New York Yankees.
A victory over the Athletics at Philadelphia tonight will give Casey Stengel's men their fourth straight American League penant—a feat in major league history accomplished only by Joe McCarthy's 1936-39 Yanks and John McGraw's National League Giants of the roaring 20s.
Michigan State Gets Big Test Tomorrow
EAST LANSING (P)—Michigan State's football team is in the position of a schoolboy who is first given a high mark and then told to pass an examination.
Coach Biggie Munn's outfit was rated the top team in the country in the pre-season Associated Press poll.
On Saturday Michigan State meets Michigan and nearly 100,000 fans will crowd into the big Hollywood-like bowl at Ann Arbor to see how well the Munnmen pass their first test.
For a number of years Michigan's powerful teams whipped their country cousins with boring regularity. But last year MSC won 25-0.
Munn has been outspokenly irritated by writers who pictured his 1552 outfit as a bunch of worldbeaters.
"They must be talking about last year's team," he insists. "Most of those guys have never seen us work out. They read each other's stuff and think they know all about us."
Michigan will have vote on Tod Topor calling the signals. Tom Tewcle, a junior who went in mostly to punt last season, will be directing Munn's varied offense.
Munn has been trying to build a tight, fast offensive line. "I want him men who can run fast enough to keep out of the way of my backs," he asked.
Michigan State's two platoon backfield that provided the one-two punch for an undefeated 1351 season has returned intact. And Munn has third string backs who would be varsity players on almost any other outfit.
Thus Trojan fans are expected to see Troy's best runner, 185-pound Al Carmichael, and the best passer, Rudy Bukich, playing together instead of alternating.
The two, in effect essaying a double tailback attack in Hill's single wing style, were not named as a pair in the starting lineup, however. Aramis Dandoy was named for the right half, Carmichael at left, big Charley Ane at quarter and Leon Sellers at full.
Coach Bob Voigts has a good sized squad—the defensive line averages about 215—and some speed. Named to guide the T-offense was Dick Thomas, a non-letterman junior who apparently has beat on out Bob Burson.
Voigts has a pair of good halfbacks, Bob Lauter, 180, and Wally Jones, 185. His regular halfback, Chuck Hren, will sit out the game with a foot injury, leaving Clarence Johnson, 205, at the spot.
In 1948 Voigts brought a team out here which upset UCLA, 19-0. The team went on to the Rose bowl and hammered out a win over California.
49ers in Light Drills for Sunday League Opener
SAN FRANCISCO (P)—His San Francisco 49ers squad trimmed to the 33-man limit, Coach Buck Shaw called for light drills today in preparation for his National Pro League opener Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
Shaw placed two men on wavers—Fullback, Bishop Strickland and Tackle Hamp Tanner — both veterans of one year with the 49ers. He also sent Fullback Gerry Cowhig back to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Kleckoff for the clash in 60,000 seat. Kezar stadium was set up a half hour to 2 p.m., so the direct trceast to Detroit will not interfere with network programs.
Two silver vets are injured in pre-season games. Fullback North Standler and End Gall Ergee will be sidelined. Shaw placed them on the reserve list.

This is flag day for the New York Yankees.
A victory over the Athletics at Philadelphia tonight will give Casey Stengel's men their fourth straight American League pennant—a feat in major league history accomplished only by Joe McCarthy's 1936-39 Yanks and John McGraw's National League Giants of the roaring 20s.
Junkman
To try to wrap up the pennant and earn the right to meet the Brooklyn Dodgers in the World Series opening next Wednesday at Ebbets Field. Stengel will send the junkman of his pitching staff, southpaw Eddie Lopat, against young Harry Byrd of the A's.
Lopat, back in the groove after suffering back miseries during the summer, has won his last five starts for a 10-5 record. Byrd, beaten 1-0 by the Yanks last Sunday, carried a 15-14 mark into the game.
There is nothing the runner-up Cleveland Indians can do about the situation today. They are idle until tomorrow, when they open a two-game final series in Detroit. Trailing by 2½ games the Tribe can only hope for a complete collapse by the champions and two triumphs by themselves over the Tigers. Such an outcome would throw the race in a tie and force a one-game play-off in Cleveland Monday.
Strongarm
Allie Reynolds, the strongarmed right hander, assured the Yankees of a tie yesterday as he joined Hal Newhouser, another veteran moundman, in producing the outstanding performances of the day.
Reynolds' 3-2 conquest of the Boston Red Sox was not only an artistic but a financial success since it went a long way toward making each of the Yankee players some five or six thousand dollars richer.
Select Company
Newhouser, in the twilight of his 14-year career with the Detroit Tigers, can look for no such financial gain; however, but his 3-2 triumph over the St Louis Browns was the 200th of his major

Aceton-Columbia Game Gets Nationwide Video Airing
UGH FULLERTON, Jr.
YORK (UP)—Princeton and a clash Saturday in this nation wide television football game and it probably will be action to spectators who too football means havors three deep on both the and defensive squads.
Staunce Advocate
Bria Coach Lou Little, a advocate of the platoon and an old hand at re-shattered football teams, use five of his linemen to stretch out his thin Princeton's Charley also is doing some But he has followed it system, shifting defensors to strengthen the offenses, there's likely to drop in the quality of faces if one of the first is forced to give way toate. Princeton, unbeaten at 22 games, has a big it includes solid reserves at some positions but not at every one. Columbia, as usual, is only one deep most of the way and a substitution likely will call for juggling of the few adequate replacements.
Nationwide Attention
The game is one of two Ivy league contests singled out for not nationwide attention on the NCAA television program this season. Next month Cornell and Yale will appear. The only other Eastern game listed is Army-Navy.
It also marks the beginning of competition in the Ivy league, which organized formally this year.
Princeton's big problem this year was the replacing of its entire 1951 offensive backfield, including all-American Dick Kazmaier. Caldwell solved it partially by switching Homer Smith, fullback, and Ned Jannotta, halfback, to the offensive platoon along Capt. Frank McPhee, a crackerjack end. That left him with just two holdovers on defense — Guard Brad Glass and Tackle Pete Weimar. So Smith, Janotta and McPhee may have to switch back in time of stress.
Situation Acute
With Little the situation is even more acute. He rounded up an offensive backfield to go with Passer Mitch Price by putting Capt. Bob McCullough on offense and by discovering sophomore Bob Mercier, a 155-pound spinner.
In the line End Al-Ward, Columbia's best pass receiver although only 5-10, will see double duty as a defensive player. So will John Casella and Ernie Gregorowicz, a pair of big, rugged tackles. Dave Bueschen, another letterman, will serve as offensive center and defensive guard and McCullough, fullback on offense, will play safety.
Says Little: "This isn't a new condition with us. Thirty six men can do the job if they're good enough."

Bears Will Risk Unbeaten Record Against Tigers
BERKELEY (A) — California's Bears risk their record of not having lost a regular season intersectional football game in five years when they meet Missouri at 2 p.m. Saturday.
The last time Coach Lynn Waldorf's Bears dropped an intersectional was 1946, when Wisconsin won 28-7.
Missouri is expected to prove a tough test.
California breezed past College of Pacific 34-13 in their opening while Missouri led quarterback, Tony Scardipo, lost a heartbreaker to highly favored Maryland, 18-10.
Scardipo, a 19-year-old sophomore, is being touted as the successor of Paul Christman, Missouri's great passer of a few years ago.
The Tigers' ground attack is spearheaded by Fullback Bill Rewecamp, a transfer from West Point.
California, as usual, will rest its offensive hopes on the running of Johnny Olszewski and the passing of Quarterback Bill Mals.
Two of California's top defensive linemen will be sidelined with injuries. End John Stellem is out with a knee injury and tackle Dwight Ely suffered a broken leg in the COP game.
DETROIT (P) — The happiest fellow at Briggs Stadium yesterday was Letty Hal Newhouser. He won his 200th victory as a major leaguer.
"I'm sure," Hal said, "That's one of the greatest thrills that can come to a pitcher."

Anaheimers will get a chance to see their high school football team in action on a local gridiron for the first time this season, when the Colonists take the field at La Palma stadium against Chaffey at 8 p.m. tonight. It will be a contest of greenness against experience, with the local boys cast in the role of underdogs. The Colonists will face a team that has 10 returning lettermen, some of whom are big and rough.
Tiger Don Vick, fullback, weighs in at 215 pounds and was all over the field in last year's game against Anaheim. He figures to give repeat performance tonight. Sam Crowe is another of the lettermen returning. He'll be at the tailback position he handled last year.
Coach Clare Van Hoorebeke has been working his charges diligently this week in preparation for tonight's game. He wound up the rugged week with a long drill yesterday that stressed ball handling by the back and tough blocking by the lineman.
Van has been forced by the number of injuries to his players to make some changes in his line-up.
Dean Philpott will take over at the fullback position for alling Jim Roberts. Quarterback Phil Wright has been switched over to halfback, leaving his ball handling chores to Paul Grover and Gayle Herbel.
The Colonists are extremely thin in the backfield now. With Peralta joining Roberts on the sidelines, experience in the backfield is at a minimum.
But the Tigers are fast. Don Kauzlarich, another letter winner, does the 100-yard dash in 10.4. And ends Ben Hunter and Stan Evers are two speedy lettermen seen in last year's game.
It figures to be an interesting night of football.
