FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1952 No. 297 Rookies Making Good in Ranks Of Pro Gridders By EARL WRIGHT NEW YORK, Nov. 21 'U The brilliant play of most of the top rookie draft choices is one of the main reasons for the National Football League's tight division races. , ; Highly publicized college stars, who usually make up the bulk of the No. 1 choices, sometimes get their press clippings frayed dur ing their first pro campaigns. But Hugh McElhenny of the San Fran cisco Forty-Nlners, Ollle Matson of the Chicago Cardinals and Babe Parilll of the Green Bay Packers head a list of rookies who have made good this season. . McElhenny .leads the league in touchdowns with eight and ranks third In the ball carrying race. His only bad day was against the New York Giants, who limited him to four yards. He also is a good pass Vecelver and has been lauded by such experienced coach es as Buck Shaw of the Forty Niners, George Halas of the Chi cago Bears and Steve ,Owcn of the Giants. Fast Man Matson, a 200-pound football and track star from the Unlver- f sity of San Francisco, probably is the fastest big man in the league. He is one of the scoring 3 leaders with 42 points on seven i touchdowns. His touchdowns rep. if H resented the victory margin in ? two of the Cardinals' three vie i " tories. -I Coach Gene Ronzani as "the best r rookie quarterback to come into ;3 the league in a long time," ranks, :& fifth in passing after being sec i i ond last week. Ironically, he slip is ped in the rankings although his ' passing, play selection and faking brought both touchdowns in :" Green Bay's upset triumph over New York last Sunday. . McElhenny, Matson and Parilli probably have made the biggest m first year splashes but such top di aft choices as Bert Rechichar of ., the Cleveland Browns, end Bob ; Carey of the Los Angeles Rams, Frank Gifford of the Giants and fullback Ed . Modzelewski of the 'S Stealers also have' made good . showings, i Safety Man I Rechichar, Tennessee's 19 51 I team captain, has done one of the ' 4 best jobs. He has become Cleve- ' I land's safety man, one of the most 3 demanding posts on a Club noted 4 for its defensive skill. Even Coach I Paul Brown says he's good.

ELKHORN CAFE 1115 5.3rd Phone 1251 Southern California-UCLA Game fo Draw More Than 100,000 fo Los Angeles Stadium By JOIIX GKIFFIN NEW YORK. Nov. 21 (In-Hourby hour, as excitement mounts in the city of Los Angeles, Saturday s Southern California - UCLA battle looks more and more like football's game of the year. That's chiefly because there's more at stake in this one gridiron struggle than in any other single game played this season. To the winner goes the Pacific Coast Con ference championship, the role of host team in the Rose Bowl, and possibly an unbeaten, united sea son. The game will lure the. season's biggest crowd, 101, 403, to Los An geles Memorial Stadium. Fans in that city are calling it the Vgame of the century" and are paying Dodgers' Black, Byrd of A's Named Top Rookies for 19 52 By CARL LUNDQUIST NEW YORK, Nov. 21 (U'i Joe Black of the Brooklyn Dodgers and Harry Byrd of the Philadel phia Athletics, two giant kid pitchers with the physique and determination of mules, were named the Major League rookies of the year Friday. Black, who won 15 games and saved 15 more while losing only four as the greatest relief pitch er in the history of the Dodgers, gained the National League award in a breeze. He got la out of tne 24 baseball writers' votes. But Byrd barely won out in the American in a close three-way battle. He received nine votes to eight for catcher Clint Courtney of the St. Louis Browns and sev en for catcher Sammy White of. the uoston lieu aox. The only other National League players to receive votes were re lief pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm of the Giants with three, and shortstop Dick Groat and third baseman Ed Mathews of the Braves with one apiece. The Black-Byrd combination on rookies .completed a resurgence In major league pitching this sea son. Hurlers won three of the four capital awards and just miss ed out opUhe other. Pitcher Bobby f (lie Athletics nrevlouslv won the A L. Most Valuable Player Award, while outfielder Hank Sauer of the Cubs just barely nosed out Robin Roberts of the Phillies and Black in a hot three-way battle for the N. L. award. In fact, Black came close to an unprecedented dual honor of being named both the Most Val uable Player and the Rookie of the Year. There were impressive statistics to back up his support, too. For the Dodgers simply could not have won the pennant' with out him. He and Byrd started slowly and were at their peak down the stretch. Black set two Dodger club records for relief hurlers. He worked in 56 games, lopping the old mark of 54 set by Les Web ber in war-time 1943. He finished 41, erasing the mark of 37 set by the late Hugh Casey in 1947. ' But It was in the month-by-month breakdown where he show ed up the best. Manager Charley Dressen used him very little nt have been seven ties. But since the war, the Beavers have dom inated the series. Oregon is a slight favorite on the basis of last week's perform ances.

The teams rae so evenly paired that oddsmakers have called it even money. It's the last game of the year for UCLA and a victory will complete a perfect record. But Southern Cal still must face old rival Notro Dame next week. While the PCC settles its title in one spectacular show, the Big Ten champion and' Rose Bowl teams will be decided by three different games Ohio State-Michigan, Wisconsin-Minnesota, and Purdue-Indiana. Michigan and Wisconsin are tied for the league lead and that means either can win the title by winning its game while the other loses. But oddsmakers foresee both winning, the start. He didn't work an in ning in April, in only six games In May he worked 12 23 innings. In 12 June appearances he worked 21 Mi innings and in 14 July snow ups from the bull pen he worked 26lnnlnes.. Then' came, the hot stretch where the Dodgers finally out dis tanced the Giants. In 13 August appearances he worked 36 23 in nings and in September he tolled 45 23 innings in 11 games. Then he topped that by staffing three World Series games when Dres sen's other throwers weren't ad equate for the big job against the Yankees. Black beat every club at least once and won in every park. His overall earned run average of 2.15 was the best for the league, but he is not eligible for that official distinction since he worked in only 142 Innings. Byrd also was just another hand in the Philadelphia pitching picture at the start. In fact Man ager Jimmy Dykes of the Ath letics said in spring training he thought tne Dig lumoor-iacK from Darlington, S. C, would have to go back to the minors for nnottv er season. But Byrd fooled him.- After going 0-3 in early season mop-up jobs, Byrd won his first two starts and thereafter was a regular man in the A's pitching rotation. He hit the .500 mark on Aug. 7 and wound up with a 15-15 record for the season. He could easily have had a 17-13 mark, but for two tough defeats suffered In the final week, 10, on a questionable decision by Umpire Ed Hurley, and 5-2 In 11 Innings. Byrd turned in three shutouts and pitched 16 complete games, striking out 115 batters and walk ing only 96. link &g feather ?: "Even wien k hang-urn on tree; car ttart fast like pony and run tweet Its new after big tune-up by medicine men at Pontlac dealer' it" Ward Motor Company pontiac Michigan by one point and Wis consin by 13. That would end tne race in a tie and the Rose Bowl team would be picked by ballot of the Big Ten schools on Monday. In that case, me conierencewouia have considered these facts: Mich igan has gone to the bowl twice, but Wisconsin never has gone. How ever, Wisconsin already has lost this season to UCLA. Minnesota can cop the crown by winning if Michigan, Wisconsin, and Purdue all lose. If Minnesota and Purdue win and Michigan loses, it will end in a tie. Oklahoma can win the Big Seven championship by whipping Nebras ka, and Duke can win the South ern Conference title by beating North Carolina. Both arc heavy favorites. Alabama, hopeful of getting an Orange Bowl bid,, would almost certainly earn that prize if it can hand mighty Maryland, upset last week by Mississippi, Its second straight loss after 21 wins. Syra cuse, also an Orange Bowl hopeful, will try to stay in the running by beating Fordham. And both Perm State and Pitt will have their minds on bowl bids in their traditional battle.. , Neither bowls nor championships will be involved in the Harvard Yale clash at Cambridge, Mass., but a tough, hard game is in pros pect in football's most storied ri valry. .

Nov. 21 tW-What happened to the lame is debatable but there can be no doubt Friday that the halt and the blind voted baseball's most valuable Dlayer awards this year. There was a great deal of amaze ment when Bobby Shantz was given the American League accolade over Allio Reynolds. But anybody who knows the difference between a bunt and punt must be completely flabbergasted at the selection of Hank Sauer in the National League. Most of the voters, composed of three writers from each major league city, obviously never heard of a couple of gents named Robin Roberts and Joe Black. One theory is that they were nil on vacation and the ballot was filled In by the editor ot tne women s page. Now Sauer l a fine young man who deserved commendation on a fine season. He tied Ralph Kl ner for the home run crown with 37 round trip blows and won the National League runs-batted-ln title. But when you talk about Uie "most valuable" player you're taking in more territory than even Texas boasts about. . One of the consfderatlons, It would seem, would concern how the player's team finished because of his contributions. The Cubs wound up some 10 games out of the first division, somewhat attributable to the fact that Hank in the last month of the season batted only .213, hit but three homers and knocked in only seven runs.

Rookie's Scs.es & Service 134 GBEEKWOOD Sauer had slipped in second ahead of either Black'or Roberts because of the-closeness ot the voting and a split In first-place ballots. But beating them both is as inconceiv able as pickle-flavored ice cream. There can be no doubt that with out Black the Dodgers would not have won the National League pen nant. He won 15 games and saved the same number. On production, value and payoff how can you beat him? Yet three of the voting writers didn't even mention him on their ballots, although they ranked the first 10 and listed 10 more for' hon orable mention I : Look, too, at Roberts' record. He won !8 games for. the Phils, the first National League pitcher to notch that total in 11 years. The last such performance wan by Diuy Dean of the Cardinals in 19S5. And in the last halt ot the season, big Kobln won IB games while losing only two and in those two the Phillies were shut out at the plate. . Thanks to him the Phils finished in the first division. . : Yet one voter - didn't put him among the first 10! There could be no argument whether Black or Roberts got the award. But giving It to Sauer for batting production with, a team that wasn't In the race after the season opened makes the award worth about a wagonload of Ko rean "wan." or rive cents U. S You want proof? Ask any base- Dan manager even Phil Cavar- retta of the Cubs if Roberts, Black and Sauer were put on the block which two he'd buy first. I don't know whether it would be Roberts or Black first, but I do know It would be Sauer third.
