Pioneer Coach Claims
Big Team Set for 'Cats
The 56-28 defeat hung on the
Cleveland Browns b; the San
Francisco '49ers at the start of
the 1949 season was the worst
defeat ever suffered by Coach
Paul Brown.
Joe Huston didn't exactly
brag about what his ball club
will do to Willamette's Bearcats
Saturday afternoon, but the
Lewis and Clark coach did inti
mate that his Pioneers were en
tirely ready for the engagement
as he addressed the Salem
Breakfast club Friday morning.
Huston praised big 6-foot-6
Bob Pollard, the tallest quarter
back in existence and pointed
out that the Lewis and Clark
backfield averages 197 pounds,
'an average that is higher than
the line.
The Lewis and Clark men
tor mentioned last year's en
counter with Willamette by
saying that the Pioneers felt
their one point victory over
the Bearcats was the outstand
ing feat of the year. He des
cribed his team as "colorful"
said it was a good club that
should be "great" next season.

Crash Holds Cerdan Fate,
News Shocks Box ing World
By JACK CUDDT
iVnltcd Preu Sporu Writer)
New York, Oct. 28 J.R Marcel Cerdan,
idol of France and former world middle
weight champion, was so tremendously popu
lar in the United States that the news of his
being on an airliner which crashed today
shocked men of the boxing game.
The stocky, black -haired, handsome
Frenchman from Casablanca, Morocco, was
popular because he reflected "class" In the
ring and outside it.
As a fighter, he was a great, all-round
combination boxer-puncher, in meeting the
public, he was polite, gracious to all, and
ever-ready with a flashing smile that re
vealed a few gold teeth on his early trips to
the United States. Later, the gold was re
placed by white porcelain, but the smile
remained the same.
Boxing men recalled that Cerdan had
erroneously been reported killed in an air
plane crash in 1947. A Casablanca-to-Paris
plane on which he had a reservation crashed
in France. Fortunately, at the last minute.
Marcel had decided to take a later plane. At
that time he was starting his second trip to
the United States to fight Harold Green, of
Brooklyn.
" In his last fight, at Detroit on June 16,
he won acclaim for his gameness after he
had tried for nine rounds to defend his mid
dleweight crown, despite agony from a
shoulder that was injured in the first round.
Marcel lost the 160-pound title that misty
night in Detroit to Jake La Motta, the
"Bronx Bull," on a technical knockout be
cause his handlers refused to let him answer
the bell for the 10th round.
