GENERAL NEWS -f 47th Year Waldorf Regards Stanford Game As Crucial Test By Ha) Wood (United Preiu SporU Writer) San Francisco, Nov. 21 (IP) The big build-up for the "big game" got under way in earnest today with Coach Lynn (Pappy) Waldorf of California's undefeat ed, United Bears proclaiming Sat urday's Cal-Stanford- game a toss-up. Although Stanford has been beaten three times and tied once, Waldorf said: "Anything can happen in this game, and usually does. It's a 50 50 battle and the breaks will de cide it." The uslially-pessimistic Bear coach did pretty good, at that, in admitting his team had a 50-50 chance; Most times he thinks his club should be the under-dog. (They'll probably be about 13 point favorites ir. this one.) Scouts Impressed "Our scouts are mightily im pressed with Stanford's recent de velopment," said Waldorf. "They have a good passing attack; there is no better receiver in the coun try than end Bill McColl, and the scouts say that the Indian attack is getting better all the time." The game means just about everything to California and. nothing to the Indians except the pleasure of knocking off the champions. If the Bears win it will: (1) Give them their third perfect regular-season in a row; (2) Make possible their third straight trip to the Rose Bowl; (3) Extend their regular-season victory string to 34, and their this year's record to 10-0-0. If they lose, most of those marks will fall by the wayside possibly including the Rose Bowl invitation. Because if Washington wins its game there will be a great hue and cry to send the Huskies to Pasadena, because Washington will have won one more game in the PCC than have the Bears. Stanford Gloomy However, Stanford let out big yowls of fear about what the big bad Bears might do to them. "California has a super football team," Coach Marchie Schwartz says, adding that his scout, assis tant coach, Dutch Fehring, had told him that California has "the best team he ever saw." To get back to the California side of it, Waldorf retorts that his scouts told him this: "In Russ Pomeroy, Stanford has the best line-backer on the coast. And in Bill McColl, they have the second-best linebacker on the coast." Of course, most competent au thorities believe that California, in Les Richter, has the west's finest line-backer. Let's see now. Where were we? Pear Bowl Game Set at Medford San Francisco, Nov. 21 (IP) Joe Verducci, coach of San Francisco state team that meets Lewis and Clark of Portland in the Pear Bowl at Medford on Thanksgiv ing day, said today that he ex pected a rough afternoon. "Scouts tell me that Lewis and Clark has a back named Rubin Baisch, a 200-pound candidate for little all-American, who is one of the best ball packers around," said Verducci. The little coach said he and his squad would leave for Medford via plane on.Tuesday. The Gators will be handicapped by injuries to halfback Rudy Smith, quarter back Tom Riper and tackle Bob Williamson. WRENS TAKE OVER Taylorsville, Pa.

Nov. 21 IlPi The intense bitterness developed dur ing the lour-year professional football war still bubbled brisk ly today as Earle (Greasy) Neale, coach of the Philadelphia Eagles, emphasized that he "odesn't want the Cleveland Browns to win ' the pro title. I don't want the other league to make us look bad," Neale ad mitted frankly. , All of . vsihch is core evidence of the smouldering antagonism between the four survivors from the late all-America conference and the nine teams they loined in Being ausorued by tne fictional league. : Animosity Recalled Previous indications that when the two leagues burled the hat chet it was In somebody's back came from the recent embrogllo between the former AAC Cleve land Browns and the old NFL Chicago Cardinals, as well as In tne increasing number of injuries this year. Mickey McBrlde. owner of the Browns threatened to withdraw his team from the league after the Cardinal ruckus but all was smoothed over. And the increas ing number of injuries is blamed on tougher competition, although most injuries seem to come out of contests between teams which originally were in the rival lea gues. A case in point Was that seven members of the former AAC New York Yankees went to the infirmary after Sunday's battle with the old NFL Los Angeles Rams. . " -r The old NFL teams naturally would hate to see the Browns, four-time kings of the erstwhile AAC, walk In and take over the NFL championship In their first year. It would make it too evi dent that the national leaguers were off base when they sneered at the AAC while it was In action and refused to meet the AAC winner in a world series. , Neale apparently still Is fum tne. too. because his culb won the NFL titW the past two years and the Browns dusted off the Eagles handily in this season's opening game.
