This, that, etc: Another possible mess, and a ' football drive for the state championship. Down in southern Oregon, where we insist the kids play harder football than say place else in i the state, Medford beat Grants i Pass and Klamath Falls beat Med s ford. New if Grants Pass beats j Klamath in their October 31 game ! the three-team district derby will .' end in a tie, necessitating a dis trict vote. The vote will also end 1 in a tie, as each school will un- i Questionably ballot for itself. At i that point the governing Oregon ; Schools Activities Association bos I ses will wish they , were in Alaska. !

The directors are showing Ignorance in even thinking of it. Thankfully enough Senators Boss Ljuby is flatly against such goings-on. But worst of it is, Luby may be outvoted by the others when the issue comes to . a head later in the month. There are many arguments against a 10-team league. One would involve the positions of the teams in the race. For instance, how'd you like to support a ball club rolling aJong in ninth or tenth place? The club would be the laughing stock of all baseball . . .

A gain of212 yards for the Huskies In running' back nine Intercepted Oregoircasses. .A week before, the Huskies them 48-14, after leading 42-0 at halftime. On the tame day Oregon was passing California dizzy with a record-breaking performance by i , George Shaw, only to get beat 41-7. Thus on the basis of those facts It would seem that Oregon should have aerialed the Huskies into sub mission. Yet Shaw & Co. got whacked 49-0 despite' throwing for as Jinanjf aerial-yards as did the Washingtons. h j ; Brother, filling ou an income tax form la: a picnic alongside' trying to dope the eollsgiate football winners.

California v and SC tangle, here in an important game that could wind up a tie"; UCLA travels to Madison to' meet Wisconsin, one of the Big Ten's best. All of the coast's Rose Bowl con tenders have played five games without the slightest smirch. Cali fornia, most impressive offensive ly, has rolled up 179 points to its opponents 43. Southern Cal, stressing defense, has scored 136 to a mere 19 for I the opposition. UCLA, somewhere In between, has a 103 to 27 record. Bears Big Scorers California's Golden Bears have Tacked up four touchdowns or bet ter against every foe, including College of Pacific, Missouri, Min nesota, Oregon and Santa Clara. At the same time, each opponent cored at least once. The Trojans of SC, who appar ently have been trying to prove - the best defense can be a potent offense, have allowed one touch down apiece to Washington State, fan Diego Navy and Oregon State and blanked Northwestern and ,-- Army. Their most effective weap an has been the intercepted pass. Sparked by Jim Sears, the Tro jans showed signs of developing a running game against Oregon state last week, but hardly any thing to compare with Cal's rough hod gang of backs, off the fig- ' fcres. ' ' Led by Johnny Olszewski, the Bears have ground out 1,714 yards in their five games. ' i -; (Continued on next page.) j , Rawls Medalist t FORT WORTH, Tex. tf!
