TAKING IT EASY
with TOM MARQUIS
(Gazette Sports Editor)
THE GAME AT La Palma stadium tonight is going to be humdinger. It is an important contest for both the Anaheim Colonists and the Huntington Beach Oilers. If Anahi wins, they will be just that much closer to retaining their Sunset league grid crown. If Huntington Beach wins, they will be back in contention in the loop race—if not they will be pretty well out of it.
MAYBE A GOOD omen for tonight's win was the victory racked up by Dick Glover's Anaheim Cees. The Anahis won an 8-0 game over the Huntington Beach Cees yesterday afternoon. Lupe Gonzales scored from the three after a 25-yard run by Allan Moody set it up.
THE CEES ALSO beat Newport just before the Colonist varsity won its first game over the Newport Tars. The Cees are now in first place in their league, having won two and lost none. That puts them just slightly ahead of the Fullerton Cees who have won two and tied one. The Fullerton-Anaheim Cee game should be a flip and tuck affair.
EXCEEDING THE WILDEST dreams of all connected with the quarter horse races at Los Alamitos, the racing meet at the Vessels ranch track got underway Wednesday.
THE PARI - MUTUEL MACHINES took in $183,669 the first day in wagering, as against a first day take of $44,154 last year. Vessels and his associates were jubilant over the interest evoked in the sprint type races and feel sure the quarter horse meet is here to stay.
RACING DURING THE current meeting will last 10 days, until Nov. 15. Nine races will be run off tomorrow afternoon.
Dons Tackle Unbeaten San Berdood In SA Municipal Bowl Tomorrow
Coach "Bill" Cook's Santa Ana Dons tackle San Bernardino's unbeaten Indians, pre-season favorites to nab the loop title, at the Municipal Bowl this Friday night in a game that may determine the winner of the Eastern Conference race.
Sporting a 3-1-1 record the ever-dangerous Dons will be "UP" for this one. A loss at this stage would knock Santa Ana out of contention for the conference crown.
If the Dons can sharpen up their overhead game which flopped so miserably against Mt. San Antonio, the tussle could go either way. Both teams were idle last week and will be well rested and near top strength.
Cook probably will stick to the same line-up that opened against Mt. San Antonio. That would include Garela and Duchart at the flanks, Gustafson and McCord at the tackle positions, and Matunaga and Schoenowitz at the guard posts. Tom Moore is salted to replace the injured Larry Nystrom at center. Quarterback Bob Smith, halfbacks Augie Huesca and Harvey Bryan, and fullback Four Bruin Teams Compete in North
LOS ANGELES—In addition to the UCLA football varsity, three other Bruin teams are competing up north this weekend.
Don Park's water polo team, which has licked Cal, Stanford and SC in earlier home contests, will be out to clinch the PCC Southern Division title in games with the Indians Friday and the Bears Saturday morning.
Don Hangen's potentially great cross country team is picked to repeat its victory of last week over the Cal Hardy.
Bob Griffeth round out the field.
Clyde William's Warrior their split-T attack function with effortless precision, rolled to three wins in a since being held to a 7-7 tie. Compton in their season opener in Diego JC, Eastern Arizona and Orange Coast have victims to Valley College scores of 26-10, 62-7, and 1.
With 24 letterten backs the '51 powerhouse which an 498 points compared to 491 foe, San Bernardino appears Bowl bound. Backs Perry Jr whose 108 points last year hit him as California's second-hit jaycee scorer—Lenny Smith Gaffney, Jack Gray, and quail back Don Meyer are among key vets on hand.
The Braves won a hard-fought 2-2 decision last year.

THE PARI - MUTUEL. MACHINES took in $183,699 the first day in wagering, as against a first day take of $41,154 last year. Vessola and his associates were jubilant over the interest evoked in the sprint type races and feel sure the quarter horse meet is here to stay.
RACING DURING THE current meeting will last 10 days, until Nov. 15. Nine races will be run off tomorrow afternoon, with the "Miss Princess" $2500 heat the feature attraction of the day. Some of the fastest horses in the business will be vying for the purse.
ONE OF THE TOP horses participating in the Alamitos races is Johnny Dail, owned by Charles Hipler. Johnny Dail won three big stakes during the recent Bay Meadows season, including the $10,000 Doty Kay handicap. JD set a new track record at the Meadows last Saturday, posting a 22- and one tenth seconds time, just one tenth of a second off the world mark.
MY CONFIDENCE IN my ability to pick the winners (in football) that he slipped again last week. After having picked seven out of seven one week and six out of seven the next, I felt like something of an expert. The day of reckoning came upon me in a hurry.
UP TILL THEN I had an .809 rating with 22 correct picks, seven on wrong and two ties. Last week four right, three wrong, one ended in a tie. That gives me a score of .571 for last week and a season score of .722.
ONLY THING THAT makes me happy about it all is that I picked all three county games. I tried and got the UCLA-Wisconsin game correct Old Cal sort of let me and Pappy down.
FOR MY RASH choices this week I'll take the Colonists over Huntington Beach, Santa Ana to drop one to San Bernardino, Orange Coast to do in Chaffey and Fullerton to stop Riverside.
IN THE BIG time I'll take UCLA over Cal (and pray), Washington over Oregon State, San Jose over Stanford (being an SJ grad this is pure sentiment), Washington State over Idaho and College of Pacific over Oregon.
SAN BRUNO—In just four days of racing at Tanforan, Willie Shoemaker of Compton, has ridden 11 winners. He booted home four yesterday—Royal Rainbow, $2.90; Aspiring, $4.70; Shedor's smoke, $3.50; and Oration, $14.60.
LOS ANGELES—In addition to the UCLA football varsity, three other Bruin teams are competing up north this weekend.
Don Park's classy water polo team, which has licked Cal, Stanford and SC in earlier home contests, will be out to clinch the PCC Southern Division title in games with the Indians Friday and the Bears Saturday morning.
Don Hangen's potentially great cross country team is picked to repeat its victory of last week over the Cal Harriers over the four-mile course at Berkeley.
The only mismatch of the weekend is Friday afternoon's mix between Johnny Johnson's undermanned Brubabe football team and the power-laden California freshmen. The Brubabe roster includes only 26 players.
WIN Seeking Bruins Heartened by SOUND Misuse of Cal; Team Loaded for Best
LOS ANGELES—Football coach Red Sanders has done many notable things since coming to UCLA in 1949, but he has never defended both California and Stanford the same year. He figures to have a pretty good chance to accomplish that feat Saturday, Nov. 1 when his undefated Bruins battle the revenge seeking Bears at Berkeley in a vital PCC game.
The Bruins have new posted six straight wins this season, including a highly satisfying 24-14 victory over Stanford, and they will be out to chalk up No. 1 at the expense of Pappy Waldorf's once beaten Bears. SC proved that Cal "could be had" last week when the Trojans upset the Rose bowl favorites, 10-0.
The Trojan licking plus the memory of that 21-7 loss hung on by Brother Bruin last year are certain to make the Bears come out rocking and socking Saturday before a capacity crowd of 81,000 fans in the 23rd renewal of this intra-university series, which currently finds Cal holding a decisive edge of 14 wins, seven losses and one tie.
By boating favored Wisconsin, 20-7 at Madison last week, the Bruins not only focused national attention on UCLA and PCC football but also set a new school win streak. It was the 11th Bruin football game without defeat, cracking the previous marsh of 10 straight set by the 1946 team which played and lost in the Rose bowl.
over the Big Ten's "best team belongs largely to the Bruins alert and aggressive defense unit, which set up all the TDs as well as holding vaunted Wisconsin attack to mere 48 yards by rushing to 145 by passing.
Joe Sabol, senior safety, Swedeland, Pa., scored the TD on a nifty 40-yard punt return. Pete Dailey, junior defensive half from North Hollywood intercepted pass which led to end Bruin TD. Bill Stits, just fullback and defensive half for Lomita, stole Badger aerial romped 23 yards for the clining tally.
In all, UCLA intercepted Wisconsin passes to bring its social total to 26, only three of the school record of 29 in 1946 and within shooting distance of the NCAA record of set by Hardin-Simmons in 1997.
The big Bruin star of the Bauer victory was linebacker De Moomaw, who proved he is wily of unanimous all-America acclaim by stopping the pot Wisconsin backs with crunch tackles all afternoon . . . and over the field.
Paul Cameron, UCLA's superlative tailback who has been hampered by a sprainedank all season, played only brief (seven plays, to be exact against Wisconsin but figure to be ready for an all-out effort against Cal. Cameron engineered the second Bruin seeder pitching five yards to Stits-four
Crucial Grid Games Scattered Over U.S.
NEW YORK GP—Georgia Tech and Duke, two of the killers of the Southland, meet in the No. 1 college football game of the day tomorrow as the season swings into the home stretch.
Most of the teams that were expected to set their opponents back before the campaign started have been living up to expectations with an occasional upset here and there.
Unless the Engineer-Blue Devil contest ends in a tie, there will be one less undefeated, united team among the major outfits when the results are in Saturday night. Both teams have identical 0-0 records and are rarin' t' go. They've been pointing for this one all season.
The contest is rated pretty much of a tossup, but when the two take the field in Durham, Tech probably will rate a slight favorite. Tech is No. 4 in the Associated Press poll. Duke No. 6.
Important games are sprinkled over the rest of the nation with the California-UCLA contest probably the best from a competitive standpoint.
This is another one that will have an important hearing on a championship—the Pacific coast conference and the Rose bowl bid that goes with it. The UCLANS are undefeated with a 6-0 mark while Pappy Walford's Golden Bears rope a 3-1 record.
If UCLA wins it has the coast experts think they will — Californiia will be pretty much out of the Rose bowl picture. It will be between the Bruins and Southern Cal, which meets on Nov. 22. The Trojans get a day off tomorrow.
Of the top teams in the country Michigan State, No. 1, seems to have the roughest task. It must beat Purdue, which has been cutting a swathe through the western conference with surprising ease.
The Bollermakers have a strong passing attack, which is just what has been bothering the Spartans all season. Still, it would be nothing more than wishful thinking to look for a upset. It shouldn't be a romp for the Spartans though.
Maryland-Oklahoma, the second and third ranking teams, respectively, have what appears to be easier tasks. The Terrapins against Boston university at Harry Agganiks. Oklahoma, unbeaten but tied once, will test offensive power against Iowa State in a game that figures to a romp.
Kansas, the ninth ranking team in the nation, still with nopes beating out Oklahoma for the B Seven title, plays Kansas State in a breather.
Villanova, No. 10 and the only other major unbeaten, untied team, tangles with the Parris Island Marines tonight in Philadelphia. Tonight's other two big contests pit Boston college against Clemson at Boston and Miami against Kentucky at Milam.
In the Ivy league, Princeton which still can win the title, takes on Brown. Penn which is in the lead—it also is undefeated although tied twice—plays strong Penn State in a non-league tune.
Texas and Southern Methodist meet in the big Southwest conference game of the day. The Longhorns have been looking better and better and a triumph could make them definite favorites for the crown.

California Bears Get the Nod Over UCLA Bruins
By HAKOLD CLAASSEN
NEW YORK (UP)—Last Saturday’s many surprising winners among the college football teams merely reaffirmed that you spell “setups” and “upsets” with the same letters—it is just a matter of placement.
There were 41 correct selections among the 56 decisions, an average of .734. That dropped the season’s figures to 193 correct, 55 incorrect for a mean of .778.
Here are this weekend’s selections:
Michigan State over Purdue; Michigan State is shooting for an unbeaten season; Purdue is shooting for the Rose bowl trip.
Maryland over Boston university: Supposedly a grudge match. If so and Maryland lets down the bars, the score could be fantastic.
Oklahoma over Iowa State: The Sooners much too good.
Georgia Tech over Duke: A pair of unbeaten powers.
California over UCLA: Johnny Oszlewski and his mates can’t be stopped on successive weekends.
Ohio State over Northwestern: John Borton to be the hero as the rebounding Ohioans break loose.

Colonists Face Rugged Oilers at Home in Important Sunset League Contest
A tough one to lose and a tough one to win—that is the way the game at La Palma stadium between the Anaheim Colonists and the Huntington Beach Oilers at 8 p.m. tonight stacks up. It will be tough to win because both teams have some going gridders and tough to lose because it will lessen the Colonists hopes for a league championship and all but snuff out the Oilers chances.
What witches brew the two coaches are dreaming up for this Hallowe'en game is unknown, but it promises some Fourth of July type fireworks. Maybe Santa Claus will give the Colonists an early Christmas present and great cause for Thanksgiving.
To get down to the more serious business of the game, it would seem to be a fairly evently matched game. Huntington Beach has defeated Santa Ana 14-6 and dropped to a tough Fullerton squad 14-21. The Colonists have a clean slate in league play and hope to keep it that way. They have taken Newport Harbor and Santa Ana and have their big game with Fullerton at La Palma next week.
The Colonists have the psychological advantage of having won their game last week and the Oilers the disadvantage of having lost their most recent contest.
Whether this will really affect the outcome of the game or not is a matter for speculation. Teams have been known to bounce back with a fury after losses and Huntington Beach has a big rugged team with a potent passing attack. To date the Colonists have an average of almost 12 yards per carry in the game against Santa Ana last week, will also get a chance for a breather once in awhile because of the extra back-field talent now available.
Colonists gridders have shown a slow but steady improvement through the season and now have to be reckoned with as a ball club that can handle the 'ball, mix up the plays, open holes in the line and score points. It is a promising development in the Blue and Gold's march for the league crown.
SAN FRANCISCO (F)—The Chicago Bears Sunday try to upset the unbeaten San Francisco 49ers' hopes for the National Football league title—and to gain revenge for their worst loss in years.

Jefferson A's Beat Franklin 14-7
In one of the most exciting recreation league football games of the year, the Jefferson "A" team beat stubborn Benjamin Franklin 14-7 in a game played at City Park field.
Both teams fought on even arms in the first half of the time, most of the play coming between the 40-yard lines.
Franklin broke the ice on the first play of the first half, withinton Stark intercepting a Jeffress and running it over the goal line standing up. Glenn Herbelent around right end for the extra point.
It was a different story in the lerton at La Palma next week.
The Colonists have the psychological advantage of having won their game last week and the Oilers the disadvantage of having lost their most recent contest.
Whether this will really affect the outcome of the game or not is a matter for speculation. Teams have been known to bounce back with a fury after losses and Huntington Beach has a big rugged team with a potent passing attack. To date the Colonists have appeared weak on pass defense.
The Oilers will be without the services of their right halfback, Bill Harrison, who got a broken arm in the Fullerton game. Also missing will be left halfback Jack Robertson, out with leg bruises.
The Colonists have finally reached the point where their injuries are at a minimum and they can call on their ace backs, Jim Roberts, Dean Philpott, Mickey Gouyd and Phil Wright to carry the ball. The Anahi team may even reach the point where they have a full two platoons before the end of the season as more and more players prove themselves capable.
Last week, Dean Stokes showed he has what it takes by opening big holes in the enemy lines. He can now spell other linemen who have had to do double duty because of a shortage of material.
