Coast, Football
Due to Return
To Pre-War Level
San Francisco, Sept. 17 (IP)
The return of Pacific coast con
ference to its Tiigh pre-war level,
with a championship team that
can battle any club In the coun
try on at least even terms, is
the prospect for the 1948 football,
season in the far west.
For two straight years-ever
since the big nine-PCC Rose bowl!
pact the west has taken a ter-1
rific shellacking in the New
Year's day classic. It has been
humiliating to the western fans
who prided themselves on their
big, strong, tough squads.
but tne post-war slump is
over, says such a conservative
observer as Lynn (Pappy); Wal
dorf, head coach of University of
California and formerly of North
western. "It just took the wc3t a; little
longer to get over the war, that's
all," he opines.
Golden Bears Favored
Pappy Waldor's C a 1 1 f o r nia
Golden Bears are heavy favorites
to go to the Pasadena New Year's
day classic and if the club earns
the ride, Pappy is sure that there
will be no more .of those 40-point
beatings.
There are only two teams given
a chance of winning the pennant
this year: California and tha
University of Oregon. '
A United Press poll of the
coaches showed six out of eight
voting for California; with the
other two for Oregon and Ore
gon taking second place on the
ballots when California was pick
ed for first.
The Bears will be back this
year with eight first string mem
bers of last year's club and 28
returning lettermen, this on a
club that was good enough to
wallop such sound opposition last
year as Wisconsin (43-7), Navy
(14-7) and UCLA (6-0).
Oregon Strong
Oregon will offer a team com
posed of 21 returning lettermen,
me best passing back In the west
last year in Norman Van Brock
lin and an all-experienced line.
Head coach Jim Aiken, in his scv
ond season at the Duck school,
admits he has "as good a chance
as anybody" to go to the Rose
bowl.
Pessimistic Jeff Cravath of the
defending champion USC Trojans
doubts that his club will amount
to much the same prediction he
always makes. - However. El Tro-.
jan has 19 lettermen back and
some flne backfield material.1
UCLA, says Coach Bert La
brucherie, is in for a "lean" year
but the Bruins still will be
tough. University of Washing
tori, startina a trial run under
Coach Howie Odell, recently of
Yaie, may be the dark horse of
the circuit. .
Stanford, loser of all nine
games last year, hopes to win "at
least half this year, in the words
of Coach Marchie Schwartz. Ore
gon State has a lot of lettermen
returning from a so-so squad in
1947; and the same holds true for
Washington State. :Idaho, work
ing on a five-year nlan. is loaded
with returning lettermen but-
wonx cause mucn trouble; and
neither will the 50-50 Montana
university team of 1947, which is
back with the same personnel.-

Portland, Sept. 17 IP The
state game commission said to
day that fishing generally
throughout Oregon had improved
this week.
In Central Oregon, the Des
chutes river was low and clear
and fair catches of rainbows were
reported.

Tacoma, Sept. 17 u Freddie
Haas, Jr., .New Orleans' hard
luck golfer, led the field into the
second round of the $12,500 Ta
coma open by a single stroke to
day after posting' a scorching 65
yesterday to tie the course record.
Close on the heels of the Louis
iana sharp-shooter was Charles
Congdon.
Only a near miss on a six-foot
nutt on the last green kept Haas
from breaking the course mark
yesterday as he breezed around
in six strokes under par.
: The tourney favorite, Jimmy
Demaret, was deadlocked with
six other golfers at 70, five strok
es off Haas' par-shattering pace.

Yanks Move Up
On Sox as Flag
Race Tightens
New York. Sept. 17 U'i If
there is anything hotter in base
ball today , than the American
league pennant race II is, the spot
being uncomfortably occupied by
friendly, mild-mannered Bueky
Harris whose New York Yankees
still might cop that flag.
The whispering campaign
against him has reached the point
where it is a shouting campaign.
Harris, who reluctantly went
back into baseball flannels to
manage the Yankees, giving up a
nice front office job because no
other peyson was available for
fhe field job. dirpcted them to a
pennant in his first season and
has . had them in contention
throughout the current campaign.
But the Yankee fans and the
organization Itself have become so
used to championships that any
thing less doesn't satisfy them. So
despite injuries, failure of key
performers to measure up to what
they did last year, and a general
improvement of other clubs in
the race, Harris still has the Yan
kees "in there pitching.""
Owner Satisfied
Co-owner Del Webb said last
night in Phoenix, Ariz., that he
thought the talk against Harris
was "Red Sox propaganda" and
that he was well satisfied with
the work" ho was doing. He said
he believed the reports had start
ed in Boston as an attempt to
break Yankee morale.
But the Yankees haven't tender
ed Harris a contract for next year.
While the rumors were flying
the Yankees battled to an even
break with the Tigers at Detroit,
dropping the first game of a dou
ble bill, 2 to.l, and winning tlio
second one, 8 to 4. Joe DIMaggio
hit his 300th big league homel
and 3Gth of the season to spoil
Freddy Hutchinson's shutout in
the first game. No other active
big league player has that many
homers. In the nightcap, lefty
Joe .Page, one of the 'Yankee
"problem children" pitched five
innings of scoreless relief hall and
added a two-run triple as he gain
ed credit for his fifth victory.

The Boston Red Sox lost a night
