Ret Sparks Team
One of Coach John Seeley's best
men on both offense and defense
ia the Braves' heaviest man, zw
pound center Ken Brandow. But
when It comes to offense, the peer
of the team Is galloping Larry
Rose. Rose Is probably the lead
ing ground gamer in souuiern ure
gon. Holding down the fullback
spot, Rose has run up 1254 yards
in seven games. Carrying 125
times, his average is just frac
tion over 10 yards per carry. In
those seven games, he has run
up 83 points.
According to Seeley Thursday
night, Rose will be playing at
about half speed against Roseburg,
because of a big toe separation suf
fered against Harshfield three
weeks ago. He was out for signal
drills Wednesday and Thursday,
but was only able to work at de
creased speed because of the toe.
In spite of the toe, however, the
Toledo coach praised him as the
best back he bad seen this season
In the game the week after the
Harshfield tilt.
Coach Seeley wouldn't commit
nimseu as to me outcome oi ine
game, but he said, "I think the
boys will play a good ball game."
In answer to this, Roseburg Coach
Bill Reder reported one of the
roughest weeks of scrimmage this
year. Body contact scrimmages
were held the first three days of
the week. He said the Indian of
fense, especially on Tuesday,
looked "very impressive." The
team has been concentrating pri
marily on a ground attack to
meet the Reedsport ground on
slaught. Also, Reder has empha
sized offensive blocking, a glaring
weakness all year.
Players Patched Up
Reder reported that the Indians
are all patched up after the Gruel
ling Grants Pass game, except
for tackle George Langlois. He
picked up a sprained ankle Tues
day, but will be suited up anyway.
He is replaced by Winter. The
defensive line is the same as last
at ends, Bill Clarenbach and Bob
Mousley at tackles and Johnston
at center. The backfield has been
juggled slightly with the return
week witn unoert ana Hon hicks
of Leroy Elting to the lineup as
a spot player. The team doctor
reversed his no-play decision to
allow Elting to come in on defense.
He will take over right half and
pair with Jim McKinney at left.
Bobo Williams moves back to his
old linebacking soot with Ed
Stritzke. Bob Roberts remains at
safety.

Pirates, Bulldogs Meet In Title Tilt
The big game for Roseburg fans
won't be played by a Roseburg
team tonight. It's the traditional
big tilt between the Marahfield Pi.
rates and the North Bend Bull
dogs. If the Pirates win this one, they
will wrap up the district title and
win a shot at the state champion
ship, meeting Grants Pass in the
first game. However, If the Bull
dogs can pull it out of the fire,
it will throw the district into a
three-way tie for the district. That
means a vote. It will probably go
to Marahfield because of a most
impressive record, but at least the
Indiana of Roseburg will have the
Srestlge of being a first-place team
i the first year of district 5.
This is a big If. In the two
games among the three squads,
Harshfield has defeated Rose
burg, 48-0, and Roseburg, in turn,
baa dumped North Bend, 13-6. Of
course, comparative scores mean
nothing, especially in this tradi
tional game, but the Pirates will
be aolid favorites to win tonight.
That's in spite of the fact that the
Pirates have lost their last two to
Eugene and Coquille. Coquille, in
cidentally, waa North Bend's first
victim of the year.
The longest touchdown run from
scrimmage by a University of Ala
bama football player was a 95-yard
dash by Harry Gilmer against Ken
tucky in 1945. '

Deer Leg Worm
Isn't Harmful
SEATTLE OP) A harmless
leg worm which infests 80 to 90
percent of Northwest deer has
startled a number of hunters this
season and prompted them to dis
card needlessly about 20 deer,
the Associated Press learned to
day. ,' : ,.....'
One party killed seven deer in
the Thoranson creek area of Che
lan county and discarded them all
on the advice of a veterinarian.
Burton Lauckhart. biologist at
the State Game department, said
sportsmen who discard deer be
cause of the worms "might as well
quit bunting."
Dr. Paul Gustafson, micro-biologist
at tho University of Wash
ington, investigated for the Game
department and said the worms
were harmless. He reported:
The leg worm, carried by a fly,
is peculiar to the deer family and
is not parasitic to humans. It is
overlooked generally because it
seldom appears above the deer's
legs. When it does, removal of the
hide usually removes all - the
worms, which are long and thread
like in appearance.
They are found throughout this
country, in Asia and in Europe
and have absolutely no effect on
the quality of the meat.

When Notre Dame defeated De

the first limn the Ftehtintf Iriah

years. , "" j
bowl scouts will have their binocu'
lara trained on half a dozen stadia
tomorrow but they'll painstakingly
avoid one oi ine nig lootDau bat
tles of the day.
That's the clash at East Lan
sing, Mich., between unbeaten, un
tied Michigan State, fifth ranked
nationally, and once defeated
Notre Dame, bounding back to
ward Its former heights.
Neither is Bowl fodder. As a
member of the Big Ten not yet able
to partake of the western con
ference's Rose Bowl gravy, Mich
igan State ia ineligible The fight
ing Irish aimply shun post-season
activity.
But elsewhere you'll find the
pieces gradually falling into place
in the giant jig-saw nuzzle that
'makes up the Jan. 1 Bowl pro
gram.
Feature games In this respect
are at Los Angeles, where all-win-nin?
Stanford tackles once-defeated
Southern California for the
almost certain Rose Bowl plum,
and at Austin, Tex., where Texas
and Baylor vie to keep their post
season aspirations alive.
As of this moment, the major
Bowl games stack up like this:
Rose Bowl Illinois (6-0) vs.
Stanford (7-0) or Southern Califor
nia (7-1).
Sugar Bowl Maryland (6-0)
vs. Tennessee (6-0).
Cotton Bowl Texas Christian
(5-2) or Texas (6-1) vs. Tennessee
or Georgia Tech (6-0-1).
Orange Bowl Georgia Tech
vs. one of the top southwest teams
(TCU. Baylor or Texas).
A crowd of 90,000 is expected to
turn out at Los Angeles to witness
the battle of the western titans. If
Stanford prevails, it must yet take
third stringers by Camp Pendle
ton, nas UCLA, and Notre Dame
remaining.
Illinois, ranked second behind
Tennessee nationally, can wrap up
the other Rose Bowl berth by con
quering Iowa this week and then
subduing Ohio State and North
western. That's a considerable or
der but Illinois has proved itself
a considerable football team.
The southwest, which provides
the host team in the Cotton Bowl,
is in its usual stew, wjth no team
dominant. TCU leads the league
with a perfect record and after a
rest this week takes on Texas,
Rice and SMU in that order.
That puts e lot of significance
on the game tomorrow between
Texas and Baylor at Austin. The
Longhorns, beaten only by Arkan
sas, are a slight favorite over the
Baylor Bears, tied by Texas A&M
and beaten last ,week by Texaa
Christian.
The other Bowl aspirants have a
fairly easy week of it. Top-ranked
Tennessee is a strong choice over
