then Pvt. Don Williams of Chemawa basketball up from "Adair.

Phil came Cpl. T3 Les and Cpl.
T4 Stan Miller, the former
wrestling twins of Coxyallis

win the state grappling title not
so long ago." They're now; at
Sheppard Field also. Then
there's Lt. (jg.) Bruce Williams
up from Alameda air base and
Lt. Dick Peters of the RCAF.
Ron Gemmell, your ol Sports
Sparker and brand new papa
broke away from glorified cop
duties for a short visit. Even
Cpl. Al Lightnerj the kid bro
ther who hoops for Fort Lewis
Reception Center quint checked
in for a spell. So there's a lit
tle life in the town at that at least this weekend.
' Williams tells (no pun intended) of giving AC Dave Kelley
(the ' ex-Bearcat football-basketballer ace) a "check" during
Dave's tenure at Alameda helping pass him onto further train
ing at Corpus Chris ti then Joins Gemmell in assuring that Herm
Wedemeyer, the: St. Mary's college freshman from Honolulu is by
far and away the best collegiate backfielder either have ever seen.
Wedemeyer All They Say He Is
-You just eane believe he's only a freshman playing his first
T year of collere ball, he's that rood.? says Bruce. "I saw him aralnst
" Cat and he made monkeys oat of Fern. He's really rot it, and the
i California scribes who Insist he's the freshman find of the year
aren't Just kiddinr. The ray's terrific. He looks to me like a pro
calibre player rlrt now. (To which Gemmell "ayes' at every
torn.) : I
"I understand Spec (Keene of course) could have had him at
Willamette this year if it weren't for the war and all. They tell me
Art Gallon was set to send him over, but he picked St Mary's possibly
because there was more football down south.
"Got to see Starr's team play a few times, and both rames
' I saw Ted Ordahl play he looked great. He played about half the
t rame aralnst Del Monte. In Starr's system the fullback plays up
rather close on offense, so Ted didn't do much with the line
smacks. But on the wide ones he's still as rurred as he ever was.
"Stagg's punt formation is an odd-looking setup, but what results!
Kicker stands about 15-17 yards back and on the. snap the linemen
merely brush-block and head up-field to a man. The kicker boots with
little or no protection, and when the opposing safety man gets the
ball wham! He's hit right there. There's hardly such a thing as a
punt return against Pacific, and when this fellow Podesto booted
em it was att the tougher on the safety man. He wasn't a long kicker,
just 35 or 40 yards but awfully high. The whole Pacific hne was there
waiting with the safety man when he kicked."
Williams adds he's finally come up with the lonr-awtiade trans
fer from Instruction in California and hopes to be on fleet duty
pretty soon. He thinks it'll be off the east coast at least.
Fort Lewis May Lose Bishop, Torgeson
The other Al Laghtner brought tales of more basketballing for the
Reception Center men starting Monday, but saw possibilities of play
ing this time without such men as Gail Bishop, the scoring titan who
hit for 224 points for WSC last winter and then notched 50 in one
game in the AAU tourney at Denver, and Earl Torgeson, Seattle's
$50,000 baseball beauty who's said ot be equally efficient on the hard
woods. Even Hal Lee, ex-Washington caging whiz is at present hos
pitalized and may be unavailable.
"Both Bishop and Terresori are MPs, Bishop patrollinr vit jeep .

Bears Bounce
Bruins, 13-6
By RUSS NEWLAND
BERKLEY, Calif, Nov. 13 -JP)-The
Uunversity of California Bears
beat the University of California
at Los Angeles Bruins 13 to 6 here
today in a "brother vs brother"
football match that saw the boys
from the south go down fighting
but not humiliated through their
showing. 1
Shortenders, the Bruins scored
first, shoving over a touchdown
on a sensational play engineered
by one man Don Malmberr.
The blr left tackle, handiest
player on the field, blocked a
punt of California's halfback
Bob' Weeks, then scooped up the
ball to run 17 yards for the
score. i - it.. ; f
The Bears came back to cross
their rival's goal line with thirty
seconds to go in the second guar-
ter and converting the extra point,
left the field at half time with 7
to 6.
They built up their margin in
the last period, thanks to alert
play that saw weeks recover a
fumble by U.OKA.'S left half
John Roesch on the six yard line.
Bob Frisbee, California's left half
darted through right tackle for
the touchdown. Frisbee also scor
ed his team's other touchdown,
going throuh the same spot for one
yard. . '
