Football Team Dynamite
Packed Even Though Small
PULLMAN. Wash., Sept. 14
LB Dynamite ramn In i m a 1 1
package! and so will the Wash
Ington State college football team
thia year small and hard t o
handle. WSC openi against Utah
State Sept 17.
It also will he the best team
Head Coach Phil Sarboe has had
since he came to the Cougar
camp In 1945. At least that's the
way Sarboe feels about it. de
spite the loss of superScalback
Jerry Williami and Tackle Laur
ie Nleml.
When Sarboe says his line will
be small he means in comparis
lon with the behemoth standards
of the Pacific Coast conference.
The line he's counting on now
By SHERMAN PLIMPTON
A woman newspaper column
ist suggests that something be
done about the word "house
wife." According to the W.
N. C. the kitchen engineer and
custodian of the can-opener
likes the word about as much
as a kid likes castor oil. Just
the sound of "housewife" Is
supposed to lower milady's
morale ten nqtches or twelve
on a hot Monday. The critic
says a woman doesn't mind
being a wife, so the word
"house" must be the sticker.
With housing the problem It
has been the past few years,
we can't see this objection. As
a matter of fact, what's wrong
with "housewife" . . . and who
does object to it ... ?

Making N Claim
The Cougar Coach Isn't mak
ing any big claims for his team,
but he's not planning on decorat
ing the conference basement with
it either.
Washington State won four,
lost five and tied one last year
to finish fourth In conference
standings.
"Our problem has been de
fense'," Sarboe said. 'We were
a high scoring team last year,
but the other boys could score
on us, too. "We'll be better In
that department this year."
The Cougars will operate from
the T formation again this year,
and a pair of top-notch passers
will make it a dangerous format
Ion. Frank Mataya, 180-p o u n d
quarterback, throws with h I s
left flipper and hits frequently.
For a change. Bob Gambold, a
187-pounder, pitches from the
right side.
Halves Speedy
Halfbacks Bobby McGuire (left
and Don Paul (right) have
shown speed and elusiveness In
fractice sessions that make the
oss of Jerry Williams easier to
bear.
Sarboe said recently of Paul,
End Fran Polsfoot and Center
La Vern Torgeson, "they're not
good they're great."
Marv Cross, a sophomore half
back in 1948 haa been switched
to fullback. Cross is a 200-pound-er
with speed to burn for a man
that big. Ready to back him up
in the position are Bert Allinger,
Johnny Nonlux and Ray Hobbs.

Jot Grace Hits
Five Singles To
Aid Sac's Victory
By JIM HUBBART
AKrlaM4 PrM Sport Writer
Overshadowed only slightly by
Hollywood's dash for the Pacific
Coast league pennant was last
nignt s stana-in periormanc oy
a little known Sacramento out
fielder named Joe Grace.
The Solons pulled Into a tie
for third place with Seattle by
assaulting Guy Fletcher, the
leagues winningest pttcner, lor
a 9 to 3 victory.
Grace, filling in for the In
jured Walter Dropo at first base,
led the attack against the Raini
er with five straight singles.
Which, witn due apologies to
hard-hitting Mr. Dropo, la the
kind of stickwork the Sacs could
have used more of earlier this
semester.
While Sacramento was whip
ping the Rainiers, Hollywood
maintained its four-game lead
over second place Oakland with
a flimsy 2 to 1 triumph over the
San Francisco Seals. The win
ning run blossomed in the ninth
inning on a balk.
Con Dempsey, who went the
distance for the Seals, was the
victim, and were it not for his
balk the Seals might have boost
ed their Oakland brethren a
notch closer to the top. Art Shal
lock, the winner, fanned eight
and gave up only four hits.
Oakland, like the drunk in the
revolving door, worked hard last
night to defeat the -Los Angeles
club, 9 to 5. Significantly, the
last play Angels now have lost
14 out of their last 16 games.
At San Diego, the Padre edged
Portland, 3 to 1 as Jess Floret
approached the charmed circle
with his 19th pitching triumph.
Max West poled his 45th home
run of the season for San Diego.
The top Cougar guards of 1948
are gone but two sophomore
have shown so much stuff the
returning lettermen guards may
have to take a back seat. Gene
Rieger, 183, and Mel Thompson,
185, are scheduled to start 1 n
those positions now.
Torgeson, a one-man cyclone
on defense, will handle the cen
ter spot nicely, with Glenn Ric
kert to help out.
Jerry Houghton, a 220-pound
senior, will fill in one tackle.
Gordy Hanson, 228, a Junior, and
Bob Doornink, 215, are contend
ing for the other post.
Britain first claimed the Ba
hamas in 1627; but was unable to
make good her claim for almost
a century because the island
were held by pirate.

7riter Picks
Stanford For
Coast Yinner
Southern California
Ploetd Second, Whilo
Orocjon It Picked Third
By RUSS NEWLAND
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 14.
(V-Thls is the time of the year
we stick our neck out, way out,
trying to pick the order of finish
of the Pacific Coast conference
football race.
California's Bears made us a
surefire prophet a year ago. This
time were dropping the Bears
like a hot potato. Too many good
ones have dropped out of Coach
Waldorf lineup.
Most of the guesser are going
for Southern California and
Coach Jeff Cravath's horde of
Trojans. Not here, though.
Stanford is the No. 1 pick of
this corner. Handsome Marchie
Schwartz is the choice to bring
his team into the champion's
circle. Stanford looks ' like the
most improved club of the lot.
Maybe fifty percent better than
last year, when It lost to such
teams as Southern California and
California by only single point
margin.
The Indian can pass, receive,
run. The line is tough and, for
a change, some pretty fair re
placements are on hand. Coach
Schwartz is named to ride high,
wide and handsome after a couple
of lean seasons.
After Stanford, here Is the
way we pick the race: 2 South
ern California; 3 Oregon; 4
California: 5 Washington; 6
Oregon State; 7 Washington
State: 8 U.CX.A.; 9 Idaho; 10
Montana.
Southern California necessarily
la a contender. The Trojans al
ways are. Their schedule is favor
able, too. They bypass this week
end, while the rest of the teams
fet under way, and open Sept.
4 against Navy.
Stanford meanwhile, starts Sat
urday against tough San Jose
State and then takes on Harvard
and Michigan in succeeding
games.
Oregon could get dumped Fri
day night by St Mary' ( Cali
fornia I spirited Gaels without
occasioning great surprise. In
fact it had to come from behind
In the last minute last year to
beat the same foe.
Coach Jim Aiken lost two of
the beet end on the coast, plus
the best passer. Oregon figure
to be tough, anyhow. But not
tough enough to land in a tie
for the league title a It did in
1948.
