Anaheim Gazette SUNDAY MORNING, FEB. 6, 1953 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA Gazette SPORT ‘Get Tough’ Scheme on Recruiting Discussed by Top NCAA Officials Crafty Admiral Romps Home to Win $50,000 Hialeah McLennan Stakes MIAMI (P) — Crafty Admiral, handicap champion last year, was easily the best horse Saturday and won the $50,000 added McLennan at Hialeah Park by three lengths in a classy field of thoroughbreds. Crafty Admiral, owned by Charles and Fran Cohen of Miami Beach, moved to the front at the first turn and was never headed. He ran the mile and a furlong in 1:53 2-5 over a muddy track. With Kenny Church riding, Crafty Admiral raced evenly and was never threatened by such performers as Oil Capitol, Ken, Spartan Valor Mandingo, One Count and Gushin Oil in that order. Carrying top weight of 129 pounds, Crafty Admiral came up to the big race fit and ready. He went postward at 3-1 and paid $8.60, $4.50 and $3.50. Oil Capitol, owned by Allie E. Rouhens, Toledo, O., and ridden by Conn McCreary, burst out of the pack 50 yards from the finish line to take second, three fourths of a length in front of Mrs. E. Kendall Well’s Ken, ridden by Bobby Permanne. Oil Capitol paid $8.70 and $5.20 while Ken returned $4.20 to show. The whopping Saturday crowd of 24,132 made Spartan Valor the favorite at $1.25 to $1.

ROBERT TAYLOR "ABOVE & BEYOND" and JOHN WAYNE "BIG JIM McLAIN" Treasure of the Golden Condor" CORNEL WILDE and "Kansas City Confidential" SPOOK SHOW FEL the 13th NEW '53 PONTIAC To Crack Mark MELBOURNE, Australia (P) — A gaunt and weary John Landy won the Victorian mile in a disappointing four minutes, 11 seconds Saturday and then announced he would make no more attempts this year to crack Gundar Haegg's world record. When he does continue his assault on the fabulous four-minute mile next season, the 22-year-old Melbourne student hoped some of the bids may be made in America. Refuses Offers "I have refused many offers to tour overseas, especially America, this year, but would like to be able to accept next year," Landy said. "It all depend on how I'm running." Five pounds underweight from four terrific races in the space of two months, the speedster never had a chance Saturday to challenge Haegg's world mark of 4:01.4 and he fell miserably off his own recent performances. He had excited the track world by running a 4:02.8 and 4:04.2. Then only last Wednesday he slashed 14.4 seconds off the Australian two mile record in 9:01.2. Big Drain It was the two mile race, run in muggy weather conditions which apparently made too large a drain on his energy. "I'm afraid it's just not in me now," Landy said. "I have been at my peak for eight weeks but have been unable to strike the weather or anyone to pull me out to get near the time." Bobo Olson. Takes 8th Straight Win BOSTON: — Carl Bobo Olson, America's top ranking middle-weight, chalked up his eighth straight victory Saturday night by soundly drubbing Norman Hayes of Boston in a ten round bout telecast coast to coast from the Garden. Olson, a 2½ to 1 favorite, weighed 162½ to Hayes' 160. Scoring consistently with right hand leads and flashing combinations to head and body, Olson pulled away in the sixth round to win easily. The votes, all favoring Olson, were: Referee Eddie Curley, 99-93; Judge Joe Heirty, 97-95; and Judge Joe Santarpio, 99-93.

SPORTS Recruiting Officials CHICAGO (AP)—Officials of 12 major conferences yesterday discussed ways and means to streamline investigations in the new National Collegiate Athletic association "get tough" policy against recruiting. "The aim is closer cooperation between the NCAA and the same conferences in tracking down and punishing those who break the rules," said Walter Byers, NCAA executive director. "The meeting only got down to item No. 6 on an 13-item agenda Saturday. After today's final session there will be an announcement. There is none now." Not Informed Byers said he did not yet know if the "conference of conferences" will make any specific recommendations at this time to the NCAA 17-man council attending the meeting or the NCAA membership. Such streamlining methods may develop by providing interconference probing assistance and dovetailing conference enforcement activities with those of the NCAA. About 10 colleges and universities have been reported under observation by NCAA investigators. Big Ten and Pacific coast conference officials were scheduled to discuss the Rose bowl yesterday.

Decorated, owned by Andrew J. Crevolin, automobile dealer in Alhambra, went to the front early in the $25,000 San Fellpe Handicap at Santa Anita park Saturday, and stayed there to win by two lengths, with Chanlea second and Social Outcast third. Holds Others Off Decorated held off the bids of a field of 10 others in the stretch without difficulty, paying $6.40, $3.30 and $3. Chanlea paid $4.40 and $3.20, Social Outcast $6 to show. Time for the mile and one-sixteenth was 1:44 1-5. In the day's second feature, the $20,000 San Marcos, Grover B., a 6-1 shot, beat the favored Trusting, First Glance and Blue Reading in a prep for the $100,000 Santa Anita Handicap Feb. 28. Jockey Eddie Arearo kept Grover B, in front all the way, and the others couldn't catch him. His time for the mile was 1:36 4-5 and he paid $14.10, $6.70 and $3.70. Trusting returned $5 and $3 for second, First Glance $2.80 to show. Chanlea Weight Chanlea, Calumet Farm's top derby prospect, ridden by Eddie Arcago, carried 122 pounds against 120 for Decorated, with Johnny Longden up. Social Outcast, the lightly-rated derby candidate from the Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt stable, ran the most surprising race, pulling into contention on the back stretch and holding it over Boo Who, which had trailed Decorated most of the way. Springhill stable's De Anza, getting unexpected backing from the crowd of 47,500 to wind up at 5-2, was seventh behind Allison and Prestridge stable's Invigorator and Rocking M. Ranch's Merryman. Invigorator, a top prospect in the East last year, was making his first start of 1952 and stayed well up all the way. Louis B. Mayer's Swell made a race of it into the back stretch, but faded badly. Decorated picked up $16,950 to bring his earnings thus far in 1953 to $31,550. Changea's $5000 for second brought his earnings as a 3-year-old to $24,100. Longden said after the race that he prefers to keep Decorated back, but had a chance to go to the front Saturday and decided to try it. He was pleasantly surprised. Aussies Fear Loss of 1956 Olympics SYDNEY, Australia UP—Anxiety of Australians over whether they are in danger of losing the 1956 Olympic games heightened today when one of the country's most influential Olympic officials abruptly resigned. High Weir, Australian representative on the International Olympic committee, resigned from the Australian organizing committee and said he probably also would quit his position as a member of the Australian Olympic federation. Melbourne sporting circles feared Weir's action might be taken abroad as a vote of no confidence in the Australian organizing committee. But Weir said he quit "business reasons," adding I cannot neglect my business—that always comes first."

Baltimore Colts Still Can't Make Deal with Vessels NORMAN, Okla.

The game was highlighted by the performance of the beach city's Dick Stricklin who bucketed 43 points to set a new scoring record. Stricklin's season's total now stands at 400 in 21 games. The Oilers had little trouble with Anaheim in the contest, and led all the way by a comfortable margin. The loss, however, did not affect Anaheim's second place in league standings as Santa Ana defeated Orange and Fullerton dropped Newport in other Sunset League games. Anaheim is still two games ahead of Orange and has only one game left to play. In the Bee game that preceded the varsity play Friday night, Huntington Beach came out victor over Anaheim in a 55-49 contest.
