2 fete. 2) Statesman, Salem. Ore.. Saturday Not. 14. 1153 Clubs Battle For 2nd Spot mm Theyll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo Ad Rutschman Chief "Worry for Ogdahls Weighted with casualties in backfield and line, Willamette's Bearcats hope tonight to keep on the up-trend and at the same time clinch second place in the Northwest Conference as they take on Paul Durham's Linfield Wildcats in an 8 o'clock engage ment on the Wildcat's McMinn ville gridiron. Late-week drills produced two points of woe in the WU back field as Halfback Bobby Zoelch sustained' a wrist fracture and Half Lou Lofland re-injured a knee. Coach Ted Ogdahl figures that Zoelch, equipped with cast, may be able to start tonight, but Lofland, handicaped much of the season with injuries, may see little or no action. The Bearcat backfield starters will comprise Harv Neffendorf, the aerial standout, at quarter, Windy Sequeira at left half, George Bardsley at full and either Zoelch or John Kent at right half. Kent has displayed greatly improved running ability in recent games. Anderson Out in the line Tackle Dave Ander son probably won't start because of a bad charley horse. His run ning mate at the other tackle, Dorence Noteboom, still limps on a sprained akle but likely will be ready. Bob Dyer, junior from Pendleton, is the choice in place of Anderson. Dean Benson and Phil McCal lister, who make Neffendorf's passing the more effective with their receiving abilities, are due for the wing spots and Andy George and Rube Menashe will be at the guards. It'll be either Ken Cooper or Cliff York at center. If the Bearcats can stop Ad Rulschman tonight, they figure their victory chances wiii be en hanced considerably. Th prpat all-round back, closing out a bril liant four-year college career, will be shooting to push his yardage total for the year above the thousand mark at the expense of ! Two Other Threats Linfield has two other strong I backfield threats in Al Tarpen-1 mng and Vern Marshall. The Wildcats carf take the con ference second-place slot if they come out on the long end tonight Both the Bearcats and Wildcats have improved greatly since early season. In their past three con tests, the Ogdahl troupe tied Pa cific and defeated Lewis and Clark and Whitman to zoom large in the conference picture. Lin field pulled a stunning upset last weekend with a 20-13 victory over Chico State. Willamette ends its season next weekend against tough Cal Poly at San Luis Obispo. W. ?

Should Michigan upset Michigan State in the TV game of the day while Illinois is turn ing back Wisconsin the Illini would clinch the championship and make their third trip to Pasa dena in the last eight years. If both Illinois and Michigan State win, the final settlement of the issue would be nade next week when the Illini play North western. , . - The Oklahomans, who haven't lost a Big Seven game since the' state changed its name from In dian territory, entertains lowly Iowa State. A Sooner triumph gives the team a tie for the title. If Missouri should defeat Kansas State the same afternoon. Okla homa, would become undisputed Cascade IP II ays Win Needed to Stay in Race ... . Bruins in -Must' Game Against Huskies Today Stayton Site Of Grid Game By BOB MYERS LOS ANGELES Jf) The once beaten Bruins of UCLA toll take the field in Memorial Coliseum Saturday heavily favored to brush and keep alive their hopes of rep resentating the Pacific Coast Con ference in the Rose Bowl Jan. 1. UCLA. Edged out by Stanford, 21-20. was rated a 20-point favorite Wildcat Whiz Ducks, Bears Battle Today (Cont'd from Prec. Page) Oregon has a line that rival teams have found extremely dif ficult to dent. However, the "north ern Ducks also stand out in pass defense. Off earlier showings, the visitors could become the first to stop Cal ifornia's aerial sorties. In 8 games. uregon has permitted rivals to gain an average of only 57 yards in passing. The Ducks have topnotch pass ers in George Shaw and Barney Holland, who interchange at quar terback. Versatile Shaw also switches to end for pass recep tions at which he excells. Ore gon's Dick Hames can run with the ball with the best of them. The crowd may exceed 30,000 for the 27th meeting between the two clubs. The series started in 1899 and California leads with 17 wins to S and 1 tie. ; 1 j i i ik Mi lHmmv ihMi ummm mmm J ! Friday as some 33.000 or more fans prepared to set in on the conference contest. Royalty is slated to be present, too. King Paul and Queen Freder ika of Greece are due to make an appearance. The King is to pre sent a stone, taken from an Olympian temple in Greece, and it will be lodged permanently in the coliseum, scene of the 1932 Olympic Games. The Uclans must whip the four times beaten and once tied Hus kies to remain in contention with Stanford for the bowl honor. Stanford plays San Jose 1 State in a non-conference game at Palo Alto, while California entertains Oregon at Berkeley. Washington State and Oregon State tangle at Corvallis, Ore., Southern Califor nia remains idle and Idaho and College of the Pacific meet at Moscow in a non-league game. Showdown Next Week Barrring an upset by Washington, the showdown games come a week later when the Stanford-California and UCLA-USC battles wind up the conference campaign. Coach Red Sanders' Bruins, led by triple-threat star Paul Cameron and a large, belligerent line, promises to be at full strength. Washington, a puzzling outfit, still has its casualty woes. "The Huskies lost their first games to Colorado and Michigan, then de feated Oregon State and stunned USC with a 13-13 tie. Then they beat Oregon and held Stanford to a respectable 13-7 score. But last week they had another drastic re lapse and California rolled up a 53-25 score. Washington's T-offense is led by sophomore Sanford Lederman, who is second to Stanford's Bob Garrett in passing statistics in the conference. Cameron is the leading ball car rier in the loop and the key man in the UCLA single wing attack. Gamejime: 2 p. m.

The races in conferences other than the Big Seven aren't that near decision. Maryland. , host to Mississippi, is expected to be the Atlantic Coast team at Miami but Duke, idle Saturday, still has a chance. UCLA is the only one of the three remaining Coast Conference contenders to be in important ac tion Saturday. The Uclans, with Paul Cameron their hero, take on a Washington team that opened the race wide by deadlocking Southern California. Stanford, still the choice of many for the Rose Bowl, toys with San Jose State while the Trojans have a day off. There's a cozy group of five bids. The two spots in the Susar Bowl are open as is one in the Cotton Bowl at Dallas. Normally the SEC champion gos to New Orleans ? and right now Georgia Tech is the leader but is the guest of .stubborn Ala bama Saturday. The Tide also is a member of the top five. Mississippi is occupied with non conference Maryland. Kentucky should have it easy with Memphis State and Auburn collides with aerial-minded Georgia.

The District 3 A-2 champion Cascade Cougars, and the 4 A-2 Estacada Rangers clash tonight on the Stayton High School field at eight o'clock in their state quarterfinals football game. Coach Bob Stewart's Cascades gained the playoff spot on Wed nesday with a 14-0 conquest of Willamina. Keith Moore's Rang ers, champions of the Willamette Valley League, won the District 4 A-2 title by virtue of their WVL triumph. Tonight's winner next week plays the winner of the SL Helens-Reedsport quarter finals fray. , There is little doubt as to which team rates the favorite's role tonight. The Rangers, class of the WVL, are undefeated and untied for the season, having won eight in a row. In the Kiggins Combo Brother Del to Brother Ron the Rangers have an ex cellent aerial team. Buzz Randall anchors a. tough as well as speedy line and Jim Vickerman, an explosive-type runner, is an all-the-way ground threat for the Esta cada club. j The Cougars, who have lost nnlv In Silvortnn anrt tiA with t Madras in nine games, can't help but feel the effects of their Wed nesday tilt at Willamina, a hard hitting contest throughout. Thev lost their all-around Halfback Howard Speer early in that one. Speer being sidelined with a mild concussion. He may be able to go tonight, and then again perhaps not. Much of the Cougars' offensive burden will be carried by Big Gerry Waldrop. 100-pound full back, and Don Mickev, 150-pound halfback, if Soecr is sidelined. Bill Brown will do the pitching in the Cougars' passing patterns. Cascade has a defensive demon also in Captain Bill Husted, a linebacker who also plays end. on offense. Lineups: STACADA R.

Norman Lewis said Friday. Lewis, engaged to represent the players in their dealings with the club owners, also said he planned to press the fight for revision of the pension fund. "The standard contract which permits a player to be dismissed after being handed a month's pay but does not give him the right to quit a club and seek employment elsewhere in baseball after giving similar notice is unfair," Lewis said. "Also it is un-American."

You remember: "For want of a shoe. . ." w In Whitman's game Saturday with unbeaten College of Idaho Owens managed to haul down a pass although tightly guarded by Earle Walker. The Whitman "half back made a desperation grab for Owens, got him by the heel and the Idahoan's shoe came off in Walker's hands. Owens hitch-stepped 50 yards to the goal on a shoe -and a stocking.

In the dressing room. Gavilan asserted "It's my last welter weight fight. I'm going to give up the titlet but not before I go for Olson's middleweight championship. CHICAGO UB Johnny Bratton lay huddled and weeping beneath shaking blankets in his dressing room Friday night, unable to con vey to reporters any oral account of his reaction to Kid Gavilan'i fists. v But the tremendous devastation wrought" by the welterweight champion's slashing hands was obvious to any who saw the fight and to those who. briefly, were given a look at the challenger's battered face in the dressing room.
