Scot. 21. 1950 FAN FARE lvWollDIH.il Here's How PCC Teams Shape Up Bt HAL WOOD fCnltad rraaa .porta Writer) San Francuco, Sept. 21 4I.B The Pacific Coait conference lhapea up like this for the 1830 football aeaaon: n Best offensive team Stan ford. V Best defensive teams Cali fornia and Oregon State. At Best balanced team South ern California. &i That diagnosis doesn't put -any one team in the Rose Bowl but, ... as Coach Lynn (Pappy) -Waldorf of California points but, this Is going to be an "even up" race from start to finish. Stanford and Southern Cali fornia are boomed as the teams to beat, with Washington giv ing them a close run. However, there are other im portant factors to consider: 1 California has nearly In tact the full defensive team that made the Rose Bowl for each of the last two years. 2 Oregon State has return ing practically the same team that won its last four games In a row in 1949, ending up with wins over powerful Michigan State and Oregon. t Washington has one of the finest backflelds in the West, headed by passer Don Hen relch and fullback Hugh Mc Elhenny. The four clubs that may fur nish an upset or two, but are doubtful candidates for the Rose Bowl are UCLA, Washing ton State, Oregon and Idaho. Montana no longer is a mem ber of the conference. Stanford has a key crew of about 17 men. Actually, there are 75 on the squad, and there la a lot of bulk. There li a big division in quality. The chances are that Coach Marchle Schwar tz will have to play about five or six men on both offense and defense. These include end Bill McCoIl, center Dick Abraham, guard Jesse Cone, tackle Russ Pomeroy, end Bruce Van Aly etne and tackle Gordy White. Schwartz has four fine quar terbacks, headed by Gary Ktr- korian and Dick Horn; he has a flock of halfbacks, but not one experienced fullback. Southern California Is sup posed to be knee-deep in all kinds of talent. But Coach Jeff Cravath has borne that cross regularly ever since he took over the Trojans. El Trojan has a lot of materi al left from a good club last year; and he has the pick of the Jaycee transfers, including Al Carmlchael, a vaunted ball packer. There If a good quar terback in Wilbur Robertson and other fine halfbacks in Johnny Fouch and Ed Demir JIan. At California Pappy Waldorf's No. 1 quarterback is Brent Og den, who haa had only DO sec onds of varsity playing time. However, the sophomore crop looks good. If Pappy can fit the pieces together, he still may make his third visit in a row to Pasadena. Portland's Bevos Battle For PC Us First Division Ted Williams' Inside Baseball W The American League race this year haa run fairly close to form. My pre-season es timate that fonr clubs New York, Boston, Detroit and Cleveland had a chance to win the pennant and weald battle down to the wire has held np. It haa been a different story In the National Lea gue. When the n mmim season started I figured that either Brooklyn or St. Louis would win the flag with Philadelphia having no more than an outside chance. The Phillies have been more consistent winners than I ex pected. On the other hand, neither the Dodgers nor the Cardinals have lived np to ex pectations. The biggest surprise has been the complete collapse of the Cardinals. This team has fallen apart during the sec ond half of the campaign. Injuries to key players have been a contributing factor, but not the whole story. Time haa apparently caught . u lfial Jhimi tialaataa) up with snch exceptional play ers as Marty Marion and Enos Slaughter. They haven't been able to play close to their customary game. When such outstanding players suddenly slip, any team Is bound to feel the ef fects of the decline In their efficiency. The Cardinals have been one of the top teams in the National League for some time because they've been blessed with three or four exceptional ball players. Guys who know how to play ball In tight com petition. Without them, they have been no stronger than the other teama In the league. So It's not surprising that the Cards couldn't keep up with the pacemakers when their star performers started to slip. Next to the collapse of the Cardinals, the late season drive of the New York Giants has featured the National Lea gue race. This team looked like a fifth place club at best at the atart of the season. And It played second division base ball during the first half of the campaign. But during the past two months, the Giants have been the only team keplng pace By HERB WILHOIT (AaaoclaUd Praaa eporu Wrilarp Look np and down the Pad fie Coast league today and you'll find the excitement in Portland, There the busy Beavers are chewing away at the barrier be tween their sixth place spot and the extra cash they 11 earn if they climb into the first division. And If the Beavers continue their winning streak, now 11 atralght games. It'll be hard to keep 'em out of the top four. San Francisco couldn't stop them last night, Portland win ning two abbreviated games, 4-S In seven innings and 5-e In the nightcap called after six innings by the league cur few rule. That cavorting left Portland only a game behind fifth place San Francisco, two back of fourth-place Seattle and five in arrears of third place Hollywood. Other results: Oakland shav ed Sacramento 3-2 in a 10-ir- ning day game; San Diego trimmed the fading Hollywood Stars. 7-5, and Los Angeles smacked Seattle 8-3. Portland and San Francisco were tied 3-3 In the last of the first game's seventh Inning when, with two out. Pinch Hitter Dain Clay doubled to score Eddie Barr with the win ner. Barr was running for Joe Brovia who had doubled. In the nightcap the Beavers scor ed all five runs in the fifth Inning, including Mickey Roc co's three-run homer. The powerful bat of Oakland's Earl Rapp won again for the league leaders. He swatted his 21st homer in the 10th for the victory. He has now hit in 18 consecutive games. Sacramento's Marv Williams had tied the count with a homer in the ninth. Five Seattle errors practically handed their game to Los An geles. The Angels counted all their runs oft Starter Skinny Brown. He was relieved in the seventh by Dewey Soriano, righthander purchased last night by Seattle to strengthen the Ralniers' bid for a first division spot. Soriano has been president and occasional pitcher of the Ya kima club in the Western Inter national league where he won pennants the last two years.
