WOODBURN, Nov. 19 -(Special)- The Willamette Valley football league, already in the locker at Molalla so far as the title is concerned, will end Its regular season Friday with four tames There will be two feature tilts the Woodburn-Molalla mix at Mo lalla and the Silverton - Dallas scrap at Dallas, both at 8 p. m. In other games Canby plays at Stay ton and Sandy at Mt Angel in af ternoon contests. Estacada has finished its league schedule.

They must win to retain second place in the final standings. The Dallas - Silvetfon battle, also for a possible second place finish, is likely to be a donnybrook all the way. The Murl Anderson- Jerry Gastineau Silver Foxes have been improving by leaps and bounds, and Bobby Daggett's Dragons have been potent all sea son. A close struggle seems cer tain. Stayton will be favored over the winlesa and scoreless Canby Cougars and Mt.

TEDDIES NAME MENTOR PORTLAND, Nov. 19 -(JPh Ap pointment of Marcel J. De Lotto, now coach of the junior -team, as varsity football coach at Roose velt high school next year was an nounced today. Mason McCoy, present varsity coach, will handle Conerly, with the traditional Mississippi State game remain in 8 on his team's schedule, will be shooting at two more records In his final outing. He needs 29 more pass attempts to top .the total of 234 flung by Davie O Biiea of Texas Christian back la 1937. And if be can keep np his percentage of accuracy, bell pass O'Brien's record of 1938 of completing S5.7 percent of bis throws. 'To date Conerly already has O'Brien bettered, having hit with 55.8 percent accuracy. However, the record for air yards of 1,457, set by O'Brien In 1938 and tied by Schwenk In 1941, apparently Is beyond Con erly 's reach. He'd have to throw for 271 yards to tie it. This week's top ten In total -offense includes only two play-, ers who finished la the select The odd thing about this fal terlng and spattering Oregon State arid Machine lies In the fact that on brief (very brief) occasions, Lon Stlner's bunch ap pear as potent as that 1946 can:. In most every game this fall outside of the USC fracas the Orange have caught fire for four or five minutes, pot torether a sustained drive with plenty of park and every part of the at tack well synchronised and helped themselves to six points. Tea, they did It against UCLA's elaasy Bruins, in fact made a ball game of it bp to the latter minutes of the initial half. And the Stlners looked plenty sharp la that 75 yard payoff drive at the expense of WSC Cougars ' loot Saturday. But la all too few instances do the present Beavers roll as of old. Irritatlngly often the Corvallls outfit has the ap pearance of a disorganised unit, not at all sure of themselves. Take your pick of 'em. . . . One thing certain, the kicked around Oregon Staters should be psy chologically right for the show down "Cfrtl War" with their an cient and bitter Webfoot rivals this weekend. And that's an Im portant point. The Oranse are definitely overdue in matter of tuning la a really bang-up; 49 minute performance and Sat urday's Hay ward field clash might be it . . .

Ichinose demanded - that the BBBC help arrange a champion ship meeting between Marino and Jackie Paterson, Glasgow, Scot land. The BBBC, reversing itself, today declared Paterson world flyweight champion after having lifted his title last summer for failure to defend it against Ma rino.

He was not in the Bronx Bull's corner for the Fox bout when Lamotta was stopped for the first time in his pro career.

A win or tie for Southern Cali fornia unbeaten in league play is certain to send the Trojans to Pasadena on New Year's day. But a Bruin victory would throw the final conference standings into a tie, in which California and Ore gon also could share by winning their games with Stanford and Oregon State, respectively. That would make it anybody's nomination, but the conference fathers might be inclined to pick UCLA if it comes through with a resounding win. The Bruins' lone league loss was 6-0 to California, which in turn was drubbed by USC, 39-14, Oregon's one defeat was by UCLA, 24-7. Last year the Bruins, defending champions, gained their rights to the Rose Bowl abruptly rescind ed by Illinois by defeating USC, 13-6, in a mud battle. UCLA played ultra-conservative football, needing only a tie to win the title. This year, it's the Trojans in that lucky spot. Watson Earns Lineman Honor NEW YORK, Nov. 19-(ff-For the third time this season a cen ter has been selected in the As sociated Press poll as football's lineman of the week. The honor goes this time to Joe Watfon of Rice institute at Houston, Tex- who is being called by many the best center seen in the southwest conference since Ki Aldrich played for Texas Christian a decade ago. Watson,' who weighs 223 pounds, turned In a sparkling perform ance against Texas A and M last Saturday when his blocking and line-backing caused scouts to tab him as the best center they had seen this year. Linemen nominated this week included: Ends Dick Hagen, Washing ton; Bill Clements, UCLA, and Dan Garza, Oregon. Guards Bob Levenhagen, Washington; Don Fix. Stanford, and Ed Chrobo, Oregon.

Navy gained 112 ground yards. almost half as much as the Nittany Lfonr seven previous opponents had been able to get,and 105 aer ial yards, or more than half as many as the combined seven-foe total. This, the National Collegiate Athletic bureau disclosed today. jumped the Penn State total de fense figure from 61.6 yards yield ed per game to 81, or substantially above the all-time low of 69.9 set by Santa Clara in 1937. Navy also jumped the Lion ground yield from 9.1 yards per game to 22, but this latter figure is now under the Santa-Clara re- cord of 25.3, and Penn State has a chance to establish a new ground standard in its finale against Pittsburgh. But whether the Lions can hold Pitt to a net loss by all means of 20 yards Saturday to crack the total defense mark is highly que tionable. L It was the fifth straight week for the Lions at the head of both total and rushing defense listings. UCLA, which battles Southern California for the Pacific Coast conference championship and a Rose Bowl bid this Saturday, hold the Washington Huskies to a ml ji us-three yards by rushing to ado vance from nowhere to tenth in rushing defense. North Carolina State's Wolfpsck moved from sixth to first in punt ing with a 42.2 yard average pet punt.
