East-West Charity Game Players Take First Workouts at Frisco SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 20 (AP) — Football stars who will clash in the famed East-West charity game here Dec. 21 went through first workouts today. Onlookers were impressed by the speed and potential power of both squads. The Eastern team reported 25 strong in coaches Clarence "Biggie" Munn of Michigan State; Ray Elliot of Illinois and Dr. Eddie Anderson of Holy Cross; Duffy Daugherty, an assistant to Munn at Michigan State, also was on hand to help although not officially listed on the East staff. Three Western players had not yet checked in but 22 others went through their paces under the guidance of coaches Howie Odell of Washington, Jules Sikes of Kansas and Chuck Taylor of Stanford. Munn, whose Michigan State team topped the Associated Press national poll this season, heads the East staff. He and Elliot assumed charge of the backfield coaching. Dr. Anderson and Daugherty worked with the linemen. Three different backfield units ran through plays in the East's late afternoon practice. They lined up in "T" formation with an unbalanced line, a setup from which a switch into the single wing system employed by Coach Munn is optional. All of the backfield lineups were of tentative nature. Odell and Sikes handled the West's backfield men and ends, with Taylor in charge of the other linemen. The West will use Odell's type of "T" formation attack, not quite as compact as the standard version. Washington's All-America star, Don Heinrich, called signals for a quartet which included Don Johnson, California, at left half; Charles Spalding, Wyoming, at right, and John Oliszewski, California, at full-back. Ed Crowder of Oklahoma, led another unit embracing All-America Billy Vessels, Oklahoma, at left half; Val Joe Walker, Southern Methodist, at right half, and Sam Baker, Oregon State, at full-back. The Westerners emphasized passes heavily in the two hour drill. After a visit tomorrow to the Shrinkers hospital here for crippled children, the squads will re- Wayne U.

Doctored Giardello-Graham Decision Puts Fight Commissioner on Spot NEW YORK, Dec. 20 (UP)—Middleweight Joe Giardello of Philadelphia and his managers cooled off today in their demands for a legal test of the right of the New York State Athletic commission to reverse a decision of its own officials. *But the heat still was on Robert K. Christenberry, the New York hotelman who was appointed commission chairman a little over a year ago. Christenberry was faced by at least one sports writer. thony Ferrante, one of Giardello's co-managers, angrily said he would institute court proceedings to test the commission's right to reverse a decision. Today, after the boxer, had told them he'd rather fight Graham again than in the courts, managers Ferrante and Carmine Graziano agreed they would "fight it to the hilt for the good of boxing," but the "fight" would consist only of asking the commission for a hearing. SEATTLE, Dec. 20. dent Henry Schmitz of university of Washington Athletic Director Harvey completely today in the versy that points to the of Howie Odell as head LOUIS, Dec. 20. (P)—The Louis Browns today decided to cease Boris Babe Martin's contract he would pay the club to its San Antonio, Calif., training camp spring. 32-year-old Martin, who Brownie in 1944-46 and latched for the Boston Red Sox, the second best hitter in the A Texas league last season, fitted 329 as a regular for Antonio, a Brownie farm. NEW YORK, Dec. 20 (P)—Midweight Joe Giardello of Philadelphia and his managers cooled off today in their demands for a legal test of the right of the New York State Athletic commission to reverse a decision of its own officials. But the heat still was on Robert K. Christenberry, the New York hotelman who was appointed commission chairman a little over a year ago. Christenberry was faced by at least one sports writer's demand that he resign, considerable sharp criticism from New York sports writers and the wrath of bettors and those who accepted bets and were threatened with having to pay off both ways. It all stemmed from the commission's unprecedented action Friday night in changing the card of Judge Angelo in the televised 10-round bout at Madison Square Garden. It was first announced that Giardello was the winner. That brought a storm of protest from the small crowd of 3228 in the Garden. Then after a brief huddle, ring announcer Johnny Addie was told to tell the crowd the result was "unofficial, subject to a review." The review, which took place in a dressing room with Christenberry, Commissioner C. B. Powell and Commission Secretary Dan Dowd sitting in, produced an "official" decision a half hour later naming Graham the winner. This result was reached by changing Agnello's card to give Graham two points instead of one in the fourth round and to give Graham the 10th round by two points, where Agnello had scored it for Giardello by one point. That made the rounds even and gave Graham a 7-8 edge on points. The other two officials were divided. Under the New York scoring system, the number of rounds won is the principal basis for scoring. Points also are awarded for each round, to count only if the rounds are even. Immediately after the bout, Anhony Ferrante, one of Giardello's co-managers, angrily said he would institute court proceedings to test the commission's right to reverse a decision. Today, after the boxer, had told them he'd rather fight Graham again than in the courts, managers Ferrante and Carmine Graziano agreed they would "fight it to the hilt for the good of boxing," but the "fight" would consist only of asking the commission for a hearing.

OPEN FRIDAY EVENINGS UNTIL 9 BADGERS WELCOMED TO PASADENA —The Wisconsin Badgers seem pleased with the reception given them by these majorettes as the Rose Bowl-bound team arrived at their Pasadena headquarters.

UW Prexy Backs Cassill Against Howie Odell SEATTLE, Dec. 20 g—President Henry Schmitz of the University of Washington backed Athletic Director Harvey Cassill completely today in the controversy that points to the dismissal of Howie Odell as head football. Southern Cal Still One Touchdown Favorite; Rain Interrupts Practice PASADENA, Dec. 20 (AP)—The judges have taken a personal peek at the two Rose Bowl teams, Wisconsin and Southern California, but most of them are withholding their pre-game picks for a few days to give further study to the problem. Southern California, winner of nine straight games before bowling to Notre Dame in the season's finale, and the champion of the Pacific Coast Conference remains a one touchdown favorite. The Badger contingent got into California from Madison three days ago and most of the Western critics were impressed with, the Big Ten co-champions, even in their street clothes. Their supporters, who came along promptly, suggested that no one out here should take Wisconsin lightly. This was in the form Cassill Against Howie Odell SEATTLE, Dec. 20 g—President Henry Schmitz of the University of Washington backed Athletic Director Harvey Cassill completely today in the controversy that points to the dismissal of Howie Odell as head football coach. Odell said Tuesday Cassill had told him he would not be retained. The coach's three-year contract at a reported $15,000 annually has one year to run. Schmitz' statement was the first formal word that Cassill had recommended the discharge of the coach who tutored two All-Americans, Don Heinrich and Hugh McElhenny, during his five years at Washington. Odell's record this year was seven victories and three defeats and his team finished third in the Pacific Coast Conference race. He now is in San Francisco as lead coach of the West team which will play in the annual thrine game Dec. 27. The president said it was "regrettable that the public discussion of this situation has centered around so-called personal differences between Coach Odell and the director of athletics when in fact the roots of the issue go far deeper." The issue will be decided by the university's Board of Regents. ANAHEIM GAZETTE, INC. Theodore B. Kuchel, President Max Beasley, Vice-President Mrs. Henry Kuchel, Secretary-Treasurer H. C.

PASADENA, Dec. 20 (UP)—The judges have taken a personal peek at the two Rose Bowl teams, Wisconsin and Southern California, but most of them are withholding their pre-game picks for a few days to give further study to the problem. Southern California, winner of nine straight games before bowling to Notre Dame in the season finale, and the champion of the Pacific Coast Conference, Dog Tries Channel Swim, Doesn't Do It CALALIS, France, Dec. 20 (UP) —a dog tried to swim the English channel today but had to give up. It followed its master shoard the Dover bound Mail steamer and was chased off because the French owner knew his pet would not be allowed to land in England. When the steamer drew away the dog sprang into the water swimming strongly in its wake. It was picked up, exhausted, by a fishing boat more than a mile from the sore. Tonight it was back in Calais, tied up awaiting its master's return. Hope Still 'in' With Cleveland LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20 (UP)—Apparently Bob Hope won't be dealt out in the Cleveland Indians stock shuffle. The comedian's 50 shares were voted for Ellis Ryan, the Tribe president who resigned Thursday after his opponents showed they could out-vote him, 1526 shares to 1464. Ten shares were not voted. Ryan and his backers agreed to sell 1300 shares to the anti-Ryan faction. But today Hope's representative said the actor was "not interfering with the club's affairs at all" although he is "very much interested in it." The representative said he did not know of any plan to sell the Hope stock. Hope, raised in Cleveland, has what he terms a "rooting" number of shares. Ft. Hays Takes SD HAYS, Kas., Dec. 20 (UP)—Ft. Hays State outscored San Diego State throughout their intersectionsal basketball game. remains a one touchdown favorite. The Badger contingent got into California from Madison three days ago and most of the Western critics were impressed with, the Big Ten co-champions, even in their street clothes. Their supporters, who came along promptly, suggested that no one out here should take Wisconsin lightly. This was in the form of needless advice. Few had such a thought, despite the fact that the Coast's UCLA Bruins took the Badgers by a 20-7 count, Ohio State defeated them, 23-14, and Minnesota tied them, 21-21. Six straight victories by the Big Ten teams in the Rose Bowl have made the folks out here ultra cautious and hardly over confident. As this is written, both teams are in good physical condition. Wisconsin's No. 2 left halfback in their T-style of attack, Bill Hutchinson, has a badly bruised leg. He is expected to round into shape by next week, however. Wisconsin's No. 1 backs, Jim Haluska, left half Harland Carl, right half Jerry Witt and fullback Alan Ameche, thus far are enjoying good health. The same is true for USC, notably halfbacks Jim Sears, Al Carmichael, Leon Sellers and blocking back George Bozanic. Coach Jess Hill is conditioning the Trojans on their home field on the school campus and the players are lodged in the exclusive Town House in Los Angeles. Wisconsin's squad is quartered at the Huntington hotel here, and workouts are at Brookside Park. The experts, after comparing impressions, wind up just about where they start. The consensus: Wisconsin has the better offense, USC the defense. Rain threw both squads for a loss today. The Trojans called off practice entirely while the Badgers held a no-contact drill. Middlecoff Ousts Klein, Brosch In Semi-Finals MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Dec. 20 (UP)—The accent on age in the $13,000 International Four-Ball Golf Tournament was erased today when two gallant veterans—Willie Klein and Al Brosch—finally fell after beating their way into the next to next. RICHIE MAKES A FACE — The new light heavy-weight champion, Archie Moore (left) makes a face as he fends off an attempted right by ex-champ Joey Maxim in the fourth round of their 15-round title fight at St. Louis.

Hays State outscored San Diego State throughout their intersectionsal basketball game tonight, tacking up a 74-59 margin. Bob Brady, San Diego forward, with some uncanny free throwing swelling his total, was the high individual scorer with 22 points. MIAMI BEACH, Fla., Dec. 20 (UP)—The accent on age in the $13,000 International Four-Ball Golf Tournament was erased today when two gallant veterans—Willie Klein and Al Brosch—finally fell after beating their way into the next-to-the-last round. They toppled in the semi-finals, 5 and 4, before Cary Middlecoff, Memphis, Tenn., the No. 2 golf money winner of 1952, and Skip Alexander, the St. Petersburgh, Fla. star on the comeback trial. Their victory put Middlecoff and Alexander into Sunday's 36-hole finals against young Ted Kroll, New Hartford, N.Y., and Lew Worsham, Oakmont, Pa. Kroll and Worsham, after being held to a deadlock through the first nine, took command on the homestretch to score a 3 and 2 semi-final decision over National PGA Champion Jim Turnesa, New York, and Daye Douglas, Newark, Del.
