Anaheim Gazette MONDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA This Story Rates a California Outdoors BY JIN THOMAS (Associated Press Outdoors Editor) Announcement by Regional Director Richard Boke that the bureau of reclamation still is pressing to homestead a third of the Tulelake waterfowl refuge jolted those working for a solution to the California duck problems this week. Boke added that other lands were "being considered" as additions to the Klamath-Tule waterfowl areas. It is believed the proposed lands are Sheepy tracts west of the lower Klamath refuge. These, I believe, are useful either as a water area or for feed. Fish and game department Director Seth Gordon termed the announcement "a shock to all who are interested in conservation on the Pacific coast," and indicated that immediate action would be initiated by California. He pointed out that promised public hearings before final decisions on the refuge area were made, have not been held. The hearings, he explained, were to have been held after differences between the bureau and the fish and wildlife service were ironed out so that a comprehensive solution could be presented to congress. “If they are not going to reach an agreement,” he added, “it looks as though those of us interested will have to roll up our sleeves and get the job done.” Engene D. Bennett, chairman of the statewide joint wildlife management committee, which represents state and federal agencies, sportsmen and agriculture, wrote an urgent letter of inquiry to Secretary of the Interior Chapman asking for information. Bennett said the whole state is concerned because of the duck depredations problem and that the Tulelake refuge has been for a long time the most vital refuge on the Pacific flyway. Last week, the joint committee chairman had wired President Truman, Secretary of Agriculture Brannan and Wildlife Director Day seeking aid in obtaining federally held feed grains needed to continue the battle to keep ducks off the Sacramento rice fields. California deer season which ended Sunday in the second most successful season, from the standpoint of the buck bag, in the history of the state, being topped only by last year's record harvest, which included a great number of forked horn bucks in the northeast counties. On the basis of tag returns to the department of fish and game, the bag, through Wednesday was 41,009. Last year, on the same day of the season, the figure was 48,590, and in 1950 it was 35,543. Figures of course are not final. Examinations have been announced for the position of conservation education director department of fish and game, to be held Dec. 6. Applications must be turned in by Nov. 15 and may be obtained from the state personnel board or front department of employment offices. The conservation education director will be the last of the major offices to be filled under the fish and game department reorganization program. The job will include public relations, supervision of public information.

Not only make up its mind, but, if it again finds the Oklahoma flash unsuitable for service, announce to the nation in plain language that it does not want Mickey, now or ever, and explain why it does not wish to swear in a young man who is afflicted with the chronic bone disease osteomyelitis. In fairness to the 20-year-old World Series hero, this should be its last examination. After nearly two years of living uncomfortable, if not knowing how many poison pen letters the next mail will bring, the kid deserves a let-up. Mantle is an unusually fine quiet boy. He never asked to be deferred from service. The draft board physician looked at his affected left shin, marked him for rejection and said "Next." The question always asked is, of course, why an athlete who can run like a bullet and hit home runs from either side isn't a good enough physical specimen to wear a uniform. All we know about Mantle's affection is what doctors have told us—that, so far as they know, it is incurable. The disease could remain dormant for years and Mickey enjoy a long and brilliant career, or he might not be in the Yankee lineup next season. It is quite a mental hazard for a sensitive youngster to carry around. The military, up to now, has wanted no part of the gamble. None of the millions who watched the recent World Series could have suspected that before each game Mantle's lower leg was bound like a mummy, as tight as the gauze could be drawn, to give support to the affected bone. Whether there was pain, the kid didn't say. If there was, it didn't hold him back any. LAKE ALFRED, Fla. (AP)—Dr. R. D.

Among Stanford pl PCC Has th NEW YORK (AP) More's t-pity the South and Far West do not schedule more intersection games this season because those two sections are the class of college football this year as the cap-palms steams into the second half. Except for Michigan State—the undisputed ruler of the country, the Midwest has not showed a particular power. The Big Ten in fact, does not boast an unfeated team. Wisconsin and Illinois were supposed to be loaded, but neither has played up expectations. Nor does the traditionall strong Southwest have anything to brag about outside once-the-Oklahoma, which seems a shoot-in for its fifth straight Big Seven title. The Southwest conference does not have a team in the undefeated class. It hardly even has a favorite for the championship. The East has lived up or down to expectations. Penn of the Ivy League, no less, is head and shoulders over the field and should wish the loop title. Syracuse, which was figured to be about second best in the section took a gruesome 48-7 mauling at the hand of Michigan State Saturday. The Orange was supposed to make a close. But look at the Coast and South In the Pacific coast conference Championship Back Up Among 3 Unb SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—Coach conference football, engaged in great battle royal for the championship, has three unbeaten contenders left in the battle pit to day. Two of them, California and Southern California, will fight out in the West's game of the week Saturday in Los Angeles. The third challenger with an unblemished record, UCLA, digs cleats a Big Ten turf in an intersection Yale's 13-0 conquest of Cornell Saturday was its third Ivy league win without a defeat. Nobody expects Olivar's team to stop there. Olivar became a coach without a team when Loyola of Los Angeles discontinued football after the 1951 season. Then he caught on as backfield coach at Yale, little dreaming that Herman Hickman would resign in August and leave him in charge. And nobody expected that mid-season would find Yale in a tie with Penn for the Ivy league lead. How Yale got there is a question with numerous answers, one of which came from Coach Lefty Games of Cornell. "Yale," he said. "Is just about the best drilled team I've ever seen. The job Olivar has done at Yale in the short time he's been with them is unbelievable." With four victories against one defeat by Navy, there's a lot of talk around New Haven about the chances of Yale winning the remaining four even though powerful Princeton stands in the way along with LaFayette, Dartmouth and Harvard. Pro Tops Tourney ARCADIA (P) — Jerry Barber of La Canada today holds the Santa Anita open golf championship thanks to a long pull on the final hole. The 140-pound pro sank a 10-foot 11-inch final shot to wind up with a 54 hole total of 207. Bill Bary could have tied with a putt an inch shorter, but his failed to drop, so Barber pocketed the $460 top prize in the $1500 event. The two pros had reached the green on the final hole all even. Two amateurs, Larry Bouchey of Inglewood and Dave Stanley of Montebello, tied for third with 209. Anaheim Netters Play to Draw With Santa Ana Anaheim Mid-Cities "C" league tennis team played to a draw with the Santa Ana team on the Santa Ana high school courts yesterday as each took six of the 12 matches completed. Two of the regular 14 matches usually played were cancelled by mutual agreement as both Anaheim and Santa Ana turned out with one man short of the required number. Final round for the C's will be staged on the Fullerton high school courts on Nov. 2. Next Sunday the Anaheim B league getting underway at 10 o'clock and doubles matches following as quickly as singles are completed. Results of the Anaheim-Santa Ana C league match with Anaheim players listed first were: Bob Simon defeated Jim Miller 6-3, 6-2; Earl Ryan lost to Dick Hitt 6-1, 6-1; Barry Ryan lost to Gil Raney 6-0, 6-4; Dan Debevec defeated Bill Barger 0-6, 6-1, 6-3; Lee Risner defeated Randolph Swenson, 6-4, 6-3. In the girls singles Jean Williams lost to Louise Wilson 6-0, 6-1, and Judy Debevec defeated Della Poarch 6-4, 4-6, 6-4. In men's doubles Simon and E. Ryan lost to Roy Willis and Mike Sanford 6-4, 6-4; B. Ryan and D. Debevece defeated Jim Miller and Gil Raney 8-7, 2-6, 6-3; Bob Owston and Risner lost to Barber and Hitt 6-0, 6-3. In the two mixed doubles matches Jean Williams and Bouck were defeated by Louise Wilson and Willis 6-0, 6-4 while Judy Rebevec and Owston were winning from Della Poarch and Sanford 6-4, 6-3. Up Among 3 Unions SAN FRANCISCO (P) — Coach conference football, engaged in great battle royal for the championship, has three unbeaten contenders left in the battle pit to day. Two of them, California and Southern California, will fight out in the West's game of the week Saturday in Los Angeles. The third challenger with an unblemished record, UCLA, digs cleats in Big Ten turf in an intersection al encounter with Wisconsin at Madison. The UCLA-Wisconsin game won't count in any standings, but it will give another insight on the relative strength of the PCC and the Big Ten. The coast is leading this year, 5-8. California's Bears and the US Trojans come to grips in a game that should pack the 100,000 play seat coliseum. It will match two big, rugged squads. There is no love lost between the two rivals. The Beans are the highest scoring outfit in the league. They were obiously pointing for USC when they sloughed through a 27-win over outmanned Santa Clare Saturday. Southern California's mighty defense has brought more plaudits than its offense. Nevertheless, the Trojans have rolled on in steady fashion, sometimes taking three-quarter of the game in which to get started. They lurped Oregon State, 28-6 half-week. Individually, USC has no ball carrier to match California's all-American tollback candidate, Johnny Olszewski. But the Southern Oregon may have the defensive web to trap the blond torpedo. It was in the USC game a year ago that Olszewski was tackled so hard he suffered a knee injury that made him miss much of the remaining season. California's T-formation, five times winner thus far, gets its sternest feat against a Trojan single-wing attack that also has ES a Headline: Colonists Gazette SPORTS HIAS RETURNS KICKOFF 55 DS—Fullback Bob Mathias (circled) of Ford, with the aid of some excellent ing is on the Stanford 23-yard line as turns a UCLA kickoff 55 yards to the A 39-yard line in the game at Los AnAmong Stanford players shown are Center Jerry Goldberg (25), End Don Rush (26), Halfback Chuck Brazel (9), and End John Steinberg (12).

Pacific coast conference, there are no fewer than three outfits undefeated and untied— California, Southern California and UCLA — named in the order of their chances of staying that way. All boost 50 records and all are hoping for the bid to the Rose bowl, which goes to the winner of the league crown. One of them probably will bite the dust this week when Calsouthern Cal meet in Los Angeles in a battle of mighty offense and stonewall defense. In the South, the big boys, in their approximate order or ranking, are Maryland, Georgia Tech Duke and Virginia. The first three have won five games without a setback and Virginia has captured four. Duke meets Virginia this week and Georgia Tech the next week. The Engineers should leave the Blue Devils reeling. Actually, Maryland should beat Duke, but the Devils figure to rule the favorites over strong Virginia, probably the leading independent in the area. Other big games this week will send Penn State against Michigan State in East Lansing, UCLA against Wisconsin at Madison and Purdue against Illinois at Urbana. The Purdue - Illinois clash could decide the Big Ten champion. In the Ivy league Yale and Princeton could give Penn a tusse, but the Quakers seem to have too much all-around class. Houseton leads the Missouri valley, but Detroit could slip in, especially if it beats Oklahoma A and M. This week, Defending Champion Utah is the class of the Skyline conference, while Idaho State just about wrapped up the Rocky Mountain conference championship with its 46-16 triumph over Colorado State Saturday. There were only two minor upsets Saturday. Notre Dame took advantage of eight Purdue fumbles to win, 26-14; and Minnesota dropped Illinois, 18-7. Otherwise, the big boys just rolled along. Maryland dropped Navy from the ranks of the undefeated, 38-7; Oklahoma clouted Kansas, 42-20; California slugged Santa Clara, 27-7; Southern California whipped Oregon State, 28-6; UCLA thumped Stanford, 24-14; Georgia Tech whitewashed Auburn, 33-0; Michigan turned back Northwestern, 48-14; Penn downed Columbia, 27-17, and Tennessee defeated Alabama, 25-0. Tennis Anyone? Tennis at the Anaheim City park courts, held Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. under the direction of Mrs. Bob Williams will continue every Saturday as one of the winter-time activities of the Anaheim Recreation department. Adults as well as children are invited to participate, with individual help being given to those who are just beginning to play. Balls are furnished by the Recreation department, with players furnishing their own racquets. There is no charge of any kind for age of the program. HITTING TO Among 3 Unbeaten Coast Teams FRANCISCO (P) — Coastace football, engaged in a battle royal for the championship has three unbeaten con- left in the battle pit to- racked up five victories. The Bears have won one and USC two league games. Defending Champion Stanford was knocked out of the undefeated ranks by UCLA, 24-14. The Indians stay home Saturday to take on a revitalized Washington team that stunned Oregon 49-0. In the UCLA contest, Stanford saw too much of the tailback Paul Cameron, who threw three touchdown passes while limping on an injured leg. It was an impressive played a total of 20 minutes in played a total if 20 minutes in four previous games. Stanford will have an even better passer to contend with this time. Washington's all-America quarterback of 1950, Don Heinrich, pitched three touchdown passes against Oregon. Oregon State and Washington State, twice beaten in the conference, hook up at Pullman. WSC, which hasn't won this season, lost to Ohio State, 35-7 last week while OSC was bowing to USC. Oregon figures over Montana in their non-league clash. Idaho, 54-9 winner over North Dakota State, takes on four-time loser Santa Clara in San Francisco Friday night. Flores Floored HOLLYWOOD (P)—Gerald la Brot, a Gary, Ind., fighter, proved too tough Saturday for Nicholas Flores of Mexicali, Calif. The Indiana boxer won a scheduled 10 round fight at Hollywood Legion stadium with an eighth-round technical knockout. La Brot absorbed heavy punishment to the midsection but he had Flores in trouble most of the time. La Brot knocked Flores down for an eight count in the fourth round. Referee Joe Stone stopped the tracas when it became obvious that Flores could not go on. La Brot weighed 166%, Flores 141%. Now you can get immediate delivery on beautiful new 1952 Pontiac.

The Colonists posted two touchdowns that were good for a 13-7 victory over Newport and an undefeated status in the Sunset league. How effective Anaheim will be in their coming game with Santa Ana Friday night is yet to be seen, but the fact remains that the Colonists showed good offensive power, a thing they have lacked in previous games. The first touchdown for the locals came in the second quarter, when Quarterback Gayle Herbel took a pass from Fullback Jim Roberts. The score climaxed a 60-yard drive by the capable Colonists. Adding to the impressive showing they made in their scoring march, was the ability of the Blue and Gold team to overcome adversity to get a TD. An illegal use of the hands penalty at the Tar 13 set the ball back to the 24 and gave the Tars an extra margin for error. It wasn't enough; however, to stop the Colonists, who used a pitchout and pass play from Herbel to Roberts to Herbel that clicked for the initial score. Aaron Peralta, performing after a season-long layoff for injuries, accounted for the second touchdown. He went over from the one-yard line following a march that was sparked by the running of Roberts, Dean Philpott and Peralta himself. Paul Grover couldn't repeat on his second conversion attempt, but six points was enough of an edge for the Anh's Friday night. Newport scored with just three minutes remaining in the game.

Trainer John Waugh planned to ride Wilwyn home on Thursday it was concerned about a slight dip he had picked up in winning the 11th straight. The international brought together seven horses from England, Germany, Canada and the United States. They raced over the inland grass course with a walkupurt, something the foreign horses were used to. Wilwyn got home 1½ lengths ahead of the American Ruhe. England's Zucchero ran third and elander, the German derby winner, was fourth. Greex Ship, the 6 favorite, came in sixth. SPORTS MIRROR TODAY A YEAR AGO — No Dame trounced Pittsburgh.
