EUGENE, Ore., Sept 18--Coach
Jim Aiken tooted, his
whistle plenty today as ho sent
the University of Oregon Ducks
through rugged drills aimed for
the conference opener against
UCLA. .
The big game . U less than a
week away and he had the of
fense squad playing Bruin stylo
so -the defense squad oould get
in some practice licks.
The Ducks didn't do so well with
the single wins', Aiken admitted
at the end of the day, or else the
defense was sharper than he had
hoped for. The latter was holding
consistently.
Later in the day, the offense
Was shifted harlr in Atlron. T
formation and Quarterback Jim
Calderwood promptly passed a
long ball to Dick Daughter, for a
touchdown. He repeated again
later.
CORVALLIS, Ore, Sept 18-flp)-Hoping
for another long-shot win
over Michigan State, Coach Jim
Taylor gave his Oregon State col
lege Beavers a defense drilling
today. Emphasis was on polishing
the punting defensively and con
versionsfor the backs. The line
men got a rugged workout with a
warning about Spartan tactics
Taylor and his aides know so welL
- Punting the long balls were
Lft End Don Bradley and Full
back Glen Kach. On the the re
ceiving end were Gene Taft, Ralph
Carr, Bill Sheffold, Jack Hoxie,

Shoving the ball through the up

they dont get their broadies offn

wailings'of late on injuries, un
impressive practice sessions, etc,
can be taken as gospel (and 3-1
thev cant). UCLA Coach Red San
ders might as well concede defeat ' . BIGGIE MUNN
to Jim Aiken and the Webfoots this week and save them their trip to
Los Angeles. We've yet to see or hear a word from Sanders on the
possibilities of a Uke win over Oregon In their opener Saturday. But
remembering too easily how annually impossible it, seems to be for
northern division teams to win in the Los Angeles Coliseum, Sanders'
moaning and groaning can be taken as so much unnecessary noise.
Then on the other hand, if the guy is right it will be extremely nice
to have one of the northern elevens finally put the squash on that
Coliseum jinx. ... Add to those prep elevens who must have some
thing sizeable this season Hank Nilsen's Eugene Axemen. Bedford's
Black Tdrnado. was supposedly well fixed for another smash-bang
campaign this year, but the Axemen upended Leo Ragsdale's souther
ners four touchdowns to three last week. Consequently the Eugenes
must be tough. . . .
individual Stews Do Loom on Viking Eleven
Pre-season predictions by Messrs. Mort, Juran and Petersen at
the Vik Villa held that no Individual stars loomed for their team
this season, such as was Jim Rock last year. But from the exhibi
tion he gave Friday night against Cleveland, the red-headed,
lSl-poond Tommy Kerns, a transfer from Marlon. Ia could mako
his masters eat their words. Kerns looks like a kid who loves to
ramble with a football and has the equipment with which to
ramble. He was so Impressive, in his debut that the mentors al
ready have handed him the starting right halfback position, and
have moved Gene Jones, another impressive mail-carrier .Friday
night, to the left half spot Both Kerns and Jones were battling
for the right half berth during pre-season practices. .
The Vikings didnt exactly look like world-beaters In their debut,
but did display enough to hint that with additional work they'll be
an interesting outfit to watch. Boss Mort may come up with one of
the best running attacks Salem teams have had in a long time. Kerns,
Jones and two or three other Viks proved against Cleveland they can
mobile. Were they given even a smattering of downfield blocking by
the linemen in that game they could have gone all the way on three
or four occasions. .. .

Vikings Face .Heavy Drills
For Clash With Gresham 11
Coaches Loren Mort, Hank Juran and Hal Petersen Monday
herded the Salem Vikings back into practice action on Olinger field,
and promised the squad it was In lor some heavy Work this week as
preparations are made to meet Gresham high's Gophers in Waters
field Friday night. The Viks came
- through the. 0-0 mix with Cleve
land in good physical shape, but
compliments from the coaching
staff, were few as mistakes made
In that clash were pointed out
The Villa bossmen arent at all
happy with the visibly poor pass
defense shown by their charges
' In the opener,; and promised that
few touchdowns will be made if
the downfield blocking doesnt
Improve greatly. Weaknesses
shown at one tackle position and
at center were pointed out also.
The coaches are satisfied that
the Vik running game will be
okeh now that they've seen Red
head Tommy Kerns and Veteran
Gene Jones in action. Both were
standouts In the Cleveland game
and appear to have the halfback
spots sealed up. Deb Davis and
"Ty" Tyler also exhibited prom
ise as ball carriers in the game,
but Messrs. Mort, Juran and Pet-
. ersen figure that more driving

LOS ANGELES, Sept 18 -WV Australian Champion Frank Sedg-
man defeated the veteran American star, Ted Schroeder, in the finals
of the 24th Annual Pacific Southwest tennis tournament today by
scores OX 9-7, 6-3, 0-2.
The 22-year-old strapping Aus

of the game and cinched the crown
in a little less than an hour and
half,
Schroeder went into the match
with a right knee still sore from
an accident in his semi-final match
Saturday : against U.S. National
Champion Art Larsen. He plunged
into a sideline Judge in playing a
ball. He kept the knee in ice packs
most of yesterday, when the finals
were postponed by rain. He offer
ed no alibis but the knee gave way
apparently lata in the second sot
and he wound up In the third

Sportsman Sedgmen swept the

Timid Passing
Rams9 Excuse
LOS ANGELES, Sept 18-()-Coach
Joe Stydahar told tha Foot
ball Writers association today that
he still thinks his Los Angeles
Rams would have whipped the
Chicago Bears If his quarterbacks
had thrown more passes.
"Bob Waterfleld and Norm Van
Brocklin threw only 29 passes,"
Stydahar : asserted. "They should
have thrown 49. It was down In
black and white before Sunday's
game that the Bears had the best
defensive record against rushes
and one of the poorest pass defen
ses in 1949."
As it happened, the Rams tried
to run through the Bears and lost,
24 to 20.

2 victory today that sent the
Sox within one game of ' the
league-leading New York Yankees.
A two-run rally in the ninth and
another superb relief job by lion
hearted Ellis Kinder carried the
Sox to victory and . into second
place past Detroit Boston now
leads Detroit by a half game in i
the hectic American league race.
The Yanks were Idle and most .
of them listened to the account of
the game with mingled emotions. -
A looping single by wait Dropo
and a fly, out by Bobby Doerr
drove home the tying and winning
runs. " r
Trailing 2-1 going into the ninth,
the Red Sox struck swiftly and
were given a helping hand - by
lady luck. Billy Goodman, the
league's leading hitter, whacked
Hal Newhouser for a single. Ted
Williams, hitless all day, got a hit
with a high chopper in' front of
the plate. : ,
When Newhouser threw past
Don Kolloway at first, Goodman
raced to third. Then, wonder of
wonders, Williams stole second as
Newhouser took a full windup.
The veteran lefthander was yank
ed and replaced by Hal White.
White intentionally passed Vern
Stephens to load the bases. -
Dropo s looping single scored
Goodman with the tying run.
Doerr, who had singled home Bos
ton's first run in the second in
ning, flied to center to score Wil
liams. Now it was up to young Willard
Nixon, who had pitched six-hit
ball, to hold the vital lead. He
threw three straight balls to Joe
Ginsberg and that was alL Man
ager Steve O'Neill called on Kin
der, the 36-year-old righthanded
ace who had relieved in the last
four consecutive games.
Kinder tossed two strikes but
finally walked Ginsberg. Pinch
hitter Pat Mullin sacrificed Gins
berg to second. But Kinder got
pinch-hitter Charley Keller on
Don fly and Gerry Priddy on
grounder to end the game.
The win, his eighth against four
iosses. went to Nixon. Newhouser
was charged with his 11th defeat
against 14 victories, f.
The thriller was tne only Amer
ican league gameof the day.
