What keeps the UCLA Bruins in
championship form? : . .
Coach Red Sanders vwas asked
that Tuesday after his smooth,;
powerful club gained the No, ; 1
national ranking for the second
straight week in The! Associated
Press poll ; of sports writers and
hroadcasters. . ? -i 1 ;
His answer: Teamwork. f
''There are two things that go to
making up a good football team"
the " affable coach said, "enough
good football players and a fine
staff of assistants. I happen to be
blessed with both," i f l
Observers mght add that a solid
Job of coaching has as much im
portance. 'i f
An even 300 votes were tabulated
in the poll this week and 117 had
the high scoring Uclans in first
place-, as compared with 80 for
Ohio State, which drew the second
spot,: followed by ; Oklahoma,
Arkansas, Notre Dame and Army.
Rounding oat the top 10 in order
are Mississippi, Southern Califor
nia, Iowa and Navy, . -
How good are the Uclans? f
- "This is the best team I've ever
coached. Period. Exclamation
point," says Red. "To talk cf 'team
victories' may be rather trite, but
in the truest sense this is a team.
I don't think the players are con
scious of scores or records. They
are satisfied to win the games by
any margin ! and doa't care who
does the scoring." i
The Bruins, undefeated in eight
games, have rolled up 333 points
to 40, for a new school record. i
Through the season we haven't
been talking any one game," con
tinued Sanders, who came to UCLA
in 1949 from his alma mater
Vanderbilt, "we Just try to im
prove every day and without ex
ception our team has; done that"

Saturday without some comment though as far as, we're concerned
things were pretty well wrapped up by that 35 to -13 pasting the
Vokesmen gave tnei highly touted Seattle Ramblers last week-end.
The 'Cats looked great for the first half against CPS, but as has been
the case time and again( this yeai the lack of adequate reserves
slowed the Ted Ogdahl troupe to a walk after the intermission . I .
Over at Monmouth the Wolves will be playing a crucial too, and,
as is the case with the Salem clash, it will be Homecoming time

to be just as formidable to Coach Bill McArthur's hopes as the
Coyotes are to Ogdahl's. The defending champion Wolves of the
Oregon Collegiate Conference must beat the Owls to stay in the
race for the titleJ In the NWCi showdown test the Bearcats could
tie College of Idaho's league mark with a win, and an accompany-
ing Lewis & Clark victory at Pacific would throw the final stand
ings into a three-way top place knot r . V -!;!
Amusing Incident in the WTJ-CPS game Saturday took place
in the final minute of the second quarter with; the Methodists
leading 24 to a Ogdahl found that bis liberal substitutions .just
prior to the halftime break ihad left the 'Cats without a quarter
back on the field, and none eligible to re-enter the fray. The sec
ond and third stringers on the field huddled up and apparently
elected Bryan Roberts, normally a fullback, to the signal calling
post, after a futile effort to run off the single wing. The fresh-
" man from Grant f Portland made a fine handoff on the last play
of the stanza which ended up as a 'loose ball and a logger recovery.

for the Southern District of New

Court's historic baseball rulings as
its fcasis for throwing out the gov

Attorneys for the defendants
maintain that since the Supreme

monopoly charges against boxing.
The attorneys for the boxing
people put K this way in their

'Our basic argument is that

always has been indistinguishable
from professional baseball. In all
material aspects of toe manner in

professional boxing."

boxing are "markedly different

DENVER U") A red-hot minor

ver is sitting back and waiting to
be asked to step into faster base

For weeks the Colorado capital
has been considered a leading con
tender for a berth in the Ameri
can Assn., once the Philadelphia
Athletics were transferred to Kan
sas City.
But eo far, the city administra
tion, the chamber of commerce
and other organizations have made
no effort to crank up any official
campaign to bring triple-A base
ball to Denver. Such a drive is now
"under way in Omaha. -
Denver has a spacious ball park.
history of excellent attendance
and a record of championships to
justify a leap from the Class A
Western League to a higher-classi
fication circuit. : H
But Bob Haws am, president of
the Denver Bears. : says be can't
make a move until invited by the
American Assn., or possibly, by
some other higherrated league.
He said "Denver has the popula
tion, facilities and the support of
the fans ' to insure success for
jump into the higher minors.
In four seasons under the guid
ance of Manager Andy Cohen, ex
New York Giant infielder, Denver
won the Western League pennant
in 1954 and 1932 and finished sec
ond twice. -
The Bears set an attendance rec
ord for Class A baseball by at
tracting 463,039 paying fans in 149.
Denver led all minor leagues in at
tendance in 1952 with 461,419.
The team drew 379,180 in 1950
and 424.065 in 193L but attendance
has slumped in thepast two years
to 322,128 in 1953 and 230.681 this
last season despite a ! champion
ship winner. A lack of balance in
the league may have been partly
responsible for the sharp drop in
1954. . , . r

Johnson didn't ckse the : book
with Boudreau, however. He said
he expected to talk with several
others. Asked about the status of
Eddie Joost, the 1964 manager, he
said he still was under consider
ation, 'I have made some inauiries
about a general manager." he said.
But I definitely have not offered
anybody a job,"
The telephone had been ringing
