PCC Grid Season

countercharges.
"Counting" games this week

and only one of them is good
enough for official recognition to
ward loop honors. In it, the Stan

Also watehed will be the inter

of the two southern California

five consecutive games by their
own faculty representatives on
the conference ruling board.
Alumni groups of the two
schools screamed “secession!”
when the fines were assessed,
and just how successful the sea

could determine how much the
background cries are going to be
heard. Administration officials
of both schools have stood by

Outside the two conference
games in Washington, PCC busi

with the Oergon entries out of
state, the Beavers at Missouri

"No matter who win* the start
I ing job. Washington will have as
I good a second-string fullback as
there is in the whole country.”
Quote, unquote, Darrell Royal,
| Washington coach.
His topic was. of course, the
! outlook at fullback, where vet
erans Credoll Green and Jim
Jones are waging as hot a battle
: for the starting job as the Seat
I tie campus has soon in a long.
i tong limn.
It'« a battle dripping with class.
In one corner, weighing 20b
, pounds, is Incredible Green, a
stocky senior from Richmond,
Calif., who won his colorful nick
name by running over the oppo
sition in the manner which it im
plies. Of his 652 yards gained
last fall, some 258 were garnered
on a {buddy field against Wash
ington State where he didn't dare
j cut to the right or left.
No other collegian equalled it
for a single day performance,
even on a dry field.
In the other corner, weighing
196 pounds, is Jones, a junior
from Tacoma who logged nearly
500 minutes of playing time as
first-string right half last fall
before being moved to fullback
this spring.
Jones, faster than his rival, ran
a couple of 10.1 hundreds as a
freshman track star and hits the
line with just a shade less force
than his rival. His biggest mo
ment to date was a 61-yard touch
down gallop with an intercepted
UCLA pass last year to set the
Huskies in motion in that mem
orable 19-17 contest.
“You can say this much for
the fullback spot," Royal con
fesses, "If we were as well-heeled
elsewhere, we’d be in the chips."
