t PAGE TWO THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND,. OREGON MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1949 Sporf Parade Coast Conference Leaders Come Through; Face Tougher Contests This Week End By Hal Wood (United Press Sports Writer) San Francisco, Sept. 26 OLE) The great leveling-off pro cess in West coast football gets under way this week end. Six major unbeaten teams left after last Saturday's en gagements all put their unblemished two-week-old records on the line against experienced and able foes with the chances good that there will be an upset or two recorded before nightfall. How good is 01' USC? Has Stanford got a point-a-minute machine? Will the UCLA Bruins continue their surprising march? Is Oregon really that good? Can California contin ue to win with those "long gainers" as her only weapon? How will WSC do in the big time? Those questions may be an swered come Saturday night. Right now most of the unbeat en teams have looked impressive. Stanford Potent One of the great mysteries is ;he Stanford attack that has scored 83 points in two games and kept Its own goal line uncrossed. The Indians, who drubbed Har vard, 44-0, Saturday, get some thing a bit tougher this week as they take on a Michigan club that ground past Michigan State for its 24th consecutive victory. This Is the game that will tell whether coach Marchie Schwartz has a wonder-team or Just a group of line sophomores. USC Clicks USC, which clicked to perfec tion in whipping Navy, 42.-0, tak es on Washington State in a Pa cific Coast conference game. The Cougars already have two wins. 33-0 over Utah State, and 13-7 over Montana. The caliber of opposi tion they face this week is to be somewhat different. The best game of the week may be the UCLA-Oregon tilt in the Los Angeles coliseum and it should attract nearly a full house. Coach Red Sanders of the Bruins wasn't expected to have much this year, but in two tilts he wal loped Oregon State, and then turned around Saturday . and thumped a good Iowa team, 41-25. Oregon turned up with a 41-0 tri umph over Idaho. California, winner over St. Mary's 29-7, gets its first Pacific Coast conference test Oregon State, which thumped Utah, 27-7. The teams with records already blemished haven't a very bright future at least for this week. Washington, soUndiy trounced by Minnesota, 48-20, plays host to the toughest boys in football the Notre Dame Irish who walloped Indiana as a starter. Idaho Plays Texas All little Idaho has to do to get back on the win trail is to invade the southwest and take on a Tex as juggernaut that thrashed Tem ple, 54-0, in its opener. Montana may do better, taking on Utah State in a Friday night game. Nevada, a two-time winner, bat tles St. Mary's in San Francisco; Santa Clara, which eked out a last half 14-13 victory over a solid San Jose state team, takes on Fresno State, a 20-7 winner over Cal Poly. College of Pacific entertains Cin cinnati at Stockton, and USF plays host to Loyola in a San Francisco night tilt. Other week-end results; Whit worth 21, St. Martin's 0; Camp Pendleton 14, Cal. Ramblers 14 (tie); Whitman 6, British Colum bia 0; Southern Oregon 20, Lewis New York, Sept. 26 Ui The Brooklyn Dodgers were down and just about out today as a blister and a bubble both burst at once! History repeated itself in the tense sunlight at Ebbets field yesterday, and in the space of one short half inning the fatal eighth just as in 1946, the Brooks had blown a pennant. They knew it as they trooped silently into their dressing room, their spikes beating a slow dirge. They slammed gloves disgustedly Into lockers and no man looked at his tight-lipped neighbor. A lew minutes before they had been leading those pesky Phillies, 3 to 1, and their hopes still were high of overtaking those front- flying St Louis Cardinals. Then a blister broke! Blister Breaks Big Ralph Branca had been go ing along smoothly, but in get ting the last man in the seventh a blister on his forefinger had broken. So they sent out Jack Banta, a lean young man from Hutchinson, Kan., with high hopes that he would keep those Phillies in check through the eighth and ninth. But then the bubble broke! Blond Richie Ashburn beat out a bunt Granny Hamner doubled off the right field wall. Dick Sis sler showed a shade of his dad dy's greatness by chopping a two run single through the middle that tied it up. Chunky Del Ennis popped up trying to bunt, and then catcher Andy Semiseminick lofted a home run into the left field stands. Twice Jackie Robinson com plained about pickoff calls, but both times he lost the argument to Dusty Bogess. And when those four runs went up on the score board yoi fe)t, somehow, that the .Dodgers- were through. The score was o to 6. They were, barring a miracle. And as the Dodgers filed silent ly into the dressing room and sat there staring into space, you looked at a ball club which had just about run out of gas. White-haired Burt Shotton, put squarely on the spot when owner Branch Rickey called this team "the finest we've ever had in Brooklyn," walked through quick ly with a muttered: "Can't Win 'Em Ail Not a man looked up. They had lost" the one they had to win to stay alive, for by now the word (Continued on Page 6) Boston Red Sox, Yanks in Crucial Contests Today By Carl I.uiuIiiuIhI (United Freee Sparta Writer! New York, Sept. 26 HP Two question mark pitchers who could either be very good or very bad. carried the hopes of the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees today as they squared off in the bitterest battle yet in the atso lutely fantastic American league pennant race. As the teams, now in a flat deadlock for first place with only six more games each to play, met in Yankee stadium it was Maurice McDermott for Boston and Tom my Byrne for New York. Manager Joe McCarthy of the Red Sox was entrusting this vital assignment to a young man who has not pitched since Aug. 25 be cause he suffered a sore arm. Gray-haired Casey Stengel, who thinks his top-thatch will be snow white if he ever survives this cam paign, pinned the Yankee hopes on lefty Tommy Byrne, a 15-game winner who also has had painful kinks in his shoulder of late. ' No Alternatives Neither manager had any other logical alternative for this" game, the first of three the teams will play in the stadium this week. McCarthy was fresh out of 20 game winners, having used Ellis Kinder (23 and 5). and Mel Par- nell (25 and 7) In subduing the Yankees two straight at Boston on Saturday and Sunday. Sten gel, whose pitching has turned sour of late, had seen such erst while aces as Vic Raschi, Ed Lo- pat and Allie Reynolds get their bumps in their last assignments so had to turn to Byrne. Meanwhile, over the bridge In Brooklyn it seemed time to drape the crepe for the Dodgers. Branch Rickey's kid-powered team, which fell a game and a half behind the veteran St. Louis Cardinals yes terday with only four more in which to make up the difference. Only a miracle could save them. The" Dodgers suffered a 5 to 3 col lapse against the fighting Phila delphia Phillies while the Cardin als won as expected. 6 to 1, from the last-place Chicago Cubs. Brooks About Done Brooklyn must play its four re maining games, two apiece, with the third-place Phils and the 1948 champion Boston Braves, while St Louis plays five more, three against the casual Cubs and two against the sixth-place Pittsburgh Piriates. For today's game only, the Yankees would have to be consid ered favorites if Byrne has con- j quered the kinks which forced him to withdraw against the White Sox last Wednesday. 'He's my stopper and if any body can win it, he can," said Stengel. Yesterday s 4 to l triumph over Lava Bears Preparing For Eugene Still smarting from a 13-14 up set at the hands of the Corvallis Snartans, the Bend Lava Hears this afternoon were slated for a practice session in preparation lor (heir M'HMy nig.it meeting with the Eugene Axemen, a game which on tne basis of the valley team s record, win lie even tougher than this past Friday's tilt. Heading the Axemen eleven is Hank Nilsen. former Lava Bear coach. According to reports, the Bears and Axemen so far this season have utilized practically the same type of offensive for mations and similar offensive plays, so it can be expected this week that both coach Bud Rob ertson and Nilsen will be busy hatching up something new to throw at each other come Fri day night. Practice Punting- One thing is almost certain, the Bruin squad, after having had four punts completely blocked ano one partly blocked in the Spartan game, will work plenty this week on giving their half back punter, Ken Brown, more protection in the fray with the Axemen. Barring any Injuries during the week, the Bruins should be at full strength for the Eugene game. In the clash with Corval lis this past Friday none of the Bend players suffered any ser ious Injury. Tom Niebergall, the Bruin center, was put out of ac tion temporarily when he was jolted severely In making a tac-, kle, but he was soon on his toes again, seemingly as well as ever. The Bend backs, all of whom turned in standout running per formances in the Corvallis tilt, returned to Bend uninjured.

Upsets Feature Opening Of Big Time Grid Season By Stan Onotawskv (United I'reiw Sport Writer) New York, Sept 26 'If Two towers of football strength were toppled and two othei-s were still dizzy from an awry totter today with the chalk lines still wet on the young gridiron season. Yet, it seemed, this was only the beginning because new upsets already loomed on the horizon for the coming week end. Pcnn State was billed as the power of the cast this season, yet was knocked off by Vlllanova, 27 to 6, Saturday. Vanderbilt seemed unbeatable in t!ie southeastern conference, yet fell to 'Georgia Tech, 12 to 7. And there you had the beginning of the 1949 upset parade. Michigan almost joii-ed it, bare ly suppressing Michigan State, 7 lo 3, when four State desperation passes went incomplele on the Michigan 15-yard line with two minutes left to play. And Ohio State, one of the other Big Ten favorites, squeaked by Missouri, 35 to 34, by the margin of one toe. More In Sight The rambunctious attitudes of these spoilers and near-spoilers made more form reversals highly possible this coming week. Mis souri, for example, plays South ern Methodist and could upset the dope there. The Methodists had a tough time getting by Wake Forest, 13 to 6, Saturday. And Georgia Tech meets Tulane, the team co-favored with Vandy In the southeastern. Tulane downed Alabama, 28 to 14, and may also be rie for an unexpected black eye. And It doesn't stop there. Army, a 47 to 7 victor over David son, will catch Penn State on the rebound, Still shaky Michigan runs into Stanford, which feasted on Harvard, 44 to 0, and Villun- ova plays dangerous Detroit, which licked Tulsa, 20 to 14. Otherwise, here is the week's picture around the nation: East Penn and Dartmouth open their seasons against one an other. Boston College, 46-0 loser to Oklahoma, plays Wake Forest. Cornell, which beat Niagara by 27-0, meets Colgate, Navy follows its 42-20 Southern California loss by meeting Princeton, 26-14 vic tor over Lafayette, Yale meets Fordham and Columbia plays Harvard. South Has Good Games South North Carolina meets Georgia after beating North Caro lina state, 2b-b, while Georgia trounced Chattanooga, 42-6. Ten nessee, 10-0 winner over Mississip pi State, plays Duke, which wal loped Richmond 67-0. And sore Vandy faces Alabama. Southwest Texas, 54 0 win ner over icmpio, meets Idaho, a 410 loser to Oregon. Arkansas, which rolled over North Texas State by 3319. plays Texas Chris tian, the team which played that amazing tie with Oklahoma A. A M., 26-7 winner over Texas Tech. . mH midwest Illinois, after a 20-20 tie with Iowa State, meets Wis consin, 41-0 winner from Mar quette. Michigan State catches Marquette next. Minnesota, which won over Washington, 43 to 20, plays Nebraska. Northwestern follows Its 20-6 Purdue win with Pitt, a 13-7 victor over Williams and Mary. Ohio Slate tangles with Indiana. Far West - California downed St. Mary's, 29-7, and next meets Oregon Stale. Southern Cal faces Washington State. Stanford, 44-0 winner over Harvard, faces Mich igan and Washington catches No tre Dame after the Irish 49-6 de but over Indiana. --m f ;: SMOKE DISAPPEARING Portland, Sept 26 tP The weather bureau today said a smoke pall that hung over the Pacific northwest four days was on its way out and up. The smoke, that extended from Roseburg. Ore., to Olympia. Wash., rose from controlled slash fires and was confined by a mass ot "stable air." , , . I f .1 ; - r-p- Ihe Yankees was the ninth in a row for the Red Sox, their 21st straight at home and their ISth in the last 22 games. It was achieved on the four-hit pitching of Parnell and on the hitting of Johnny Pesky and Ted Williams. Pesky drove in the first two runs with a single, got three hits for the day and played brilliantly at third. Williams hit his 43rd homer for the other two Boston runs, scoring Pesky ahead of himself.
