HOST 0FJALENT Main Problem for Coach Bill Spaulding Lies in Ends and Tackles for Forth coming Gridiron Season By PAI L ZIMMKRMAV AnKfiriatrd Vren Bport Writer. LOS ANGELES, Bept. 11. (AP) Tht pacific cout conference which fcaa Men the University of California at t-oa Angclei football team grow from obscurity nerd not be surprised thu fall If Couch BUI Bpauldlnft leads a rough, tough Bruin out of hiberna tion Into a high place in the cham pionship standings. Should the genial Uclan mentor find himself some ends and tackles around the Wcstwood Hills campus seven were lost by graduation and In eligibility -then there would be no telilng how far his team might go. For the Bruins at least have back fleld material, not of the number Bill usually could count on one hand, but a host of big, fast men. While 6 goodly share of It has not been tem pered In the fire of big time compe tition, the talent Is there. Two Veterans Eyed. Since much of the talent la too new to classify. Coach SpAtildlng la not decided upon a possible quartet although he In considering two vete rans, Capt. Ransom Llvesay and Charles Cheshire for the halves; Ted Key. a triple-threat newcomer from Panhandle, Texas, at full and perhaps BUI Murphy at quarter-buck. This combination would average 180 pounds, 12 pounds more than the heaviest bsckfleld U. C, L. A, could put on the field a year ago. Besides these there arc more than a hslf dozen others of merit. Including BID Spaulding, Jr., son of the coach and one of the best pnssera tn local high school ranks: Mike Frankovlch. regular quarterback for the last two years: Walter Schetl. one of the moat sought after backs In local Junior college ranks lat year: Bill Williams, Prert Funk, and Wilton Wilton, a great little punter. Line Need Strength. So for the first time since he came here. Coach Spaulrilng Is worrying about his line Instead of a bsckfleld, In spite of the Inns of Cnpt. Lee Coats, great center of a year ago, the Bruin renter of the line Is pretty well fixed. Spaulding never has fnllM to bob up with a fine center, and Shermnn Cha voor appears to be the man who will flit Coats shoes, He has good gunrds In Verdi Boyer and Ed Austin, veterans; and two capable ends, but no more. The tackle pnsts must he filled with new hands. Boh McChesney nnd Sinclair Lott are back at the wing positions, but there are no reserves. If Coach Spanieling enn get some strength on each side or guard, op ponents are apt to find the Bruins hard to stop this year. The schedule Includes: Sept, 20 Oregon at Portland. Nov. 24 Oregon State at Los Angeles. WINS CALIFORNIA'S GOLF CROWN L , if 1H f 4 ij, iff '.-Wgc. 1 ...

GAINS ONLY FALL IN HECTIC MATCH With Ma famous drop-kick all tied up In the merciless grip of the rub ber legs of Bad Bam Let hers, 310 pound tall Texas grappler, "Jumping Joe" Savoldt, 200, si-champlon heavyweight matman, "took It" for the last 19 minutes of the main event at the armory last night to win the bout, after gaining the first and only fall with one of his flying leg punches. The former Notre Dame grid star battered the Texan's Um ber frame for 41 minutes In the first stanza, but with Uie sound of the second gong Lathers came back with a gleam In bis eye, grind ing the ex -all-American into a gasp ing pulp with his rolling scissors. Fireman Ray Rrlsblt, referee, waited for Savoldl to recuperate and awarded htm the match. Promoter Mack Llllard'a forecast that the card would be & sellout was fulfilled, when the largest crowd of the year Jammed the armory, filling the seats, and overflowing Into standing room both downstairs and up. Except for the one successful punch that flattened Sad Sam for the first fall, jumping Jos failed to make his drop-kicks connect. He at tempted one series In the first 10 minutes of the bout, but stretched himself flat when Lathers melted out of the way. Shortly after the start of the second fall, the grldster -again unleashed one of his powerful leg thrusts, and sgaln kicked only empty air. Savoldl kept his adversary worried with shifty footwork and sudden, powerful flying mares, but was kept busy himself by the uncanny mat- work, of the southerner's educated legs. Jumping Joe punctuated each of his holds with careful flstwork in Letbers midriff. It was still any body's match when an exchange of flying headlocks ci.ded with Sav oldl's short, quick leg Jab to the Texan's chest, and s body press to pin Let hers for the count. Althouga the two battled evenly during the first period, Savoldl kept on the offensive, weaving In and out from the crunching embrace of the southerner almost at will, and striding about the arena shaking his head, as though Lethers was a new kind of wrestler who had to be given a lesson. Sad Bam spent the first part of the bout mainly breaking out of the powerful holds of his chunky opponent with spurts of bat fling strategy. Each tried variety, with the limber limbs of the agile Texan furnishing most of the enter tainment. The grapplers settled down to ser ious work In the final minute of the contest, but Sad Sam'a usually devaatatlng rolling scissors spent Itself on Savoldl'a mountainous frame. George "Wildcat" Wilson's sensa tional flying tackles were shut out of the semi-final match when "Gen tleman Al" Karailck, 101, the Rus sian Lion, crippled the 303-pound former all-American halfback with a toe hold, to win two straight falls. The first came In 21 minutes, after a colorful but slow period of mat work In which Wilson only on:e turned lose his post -breaking grid. Iron tactics, but failed to connect. It was only a matter of seven min utes In the second fall before the Russian found Wilson's crippled leg snd re-applied the winning hold. STATE FAIR HAS 8ALEM, Ore., Sept. 11.
