MAIIYI.AMI tend its late-starting summer practice Into the fall session, while California, Southern Cal ifornia and UCLA, the other three-quarters of the confer ence, will resume after early summer workouts. As usual the prophets antici pate a hot race, but this season there is something to base such an expectation upon. The de fending titlists- and Rose Bowl champions, the Southern Cali fornia Trojans, have nine re turning lettermen. The California Golden Bears also have nine lettermen back; UCLA's Bruins have six letter men from last year, plus two letermen from 1942's Rose Bowl team both backs, George Phillips and Bob Waterfield, while Washington, with only three lettermen, has 11 men who were .on last year's Rose Bowl traveling squad. Southern California, the ad mitted class of the conference last season, rules as favorite again this year, but not by much. The Trojans have a good first team, but lack depth. The Bruins, doormats and victorious only once last year, have been greatly bolstered by the return of Phillips and Wat erfield. who sparked the UCLAs in their Rose Bowl year. Last year UCLA lacked a passer most and Waterfield fills that Job adequately. Washington, along with UCLA, is expected to provide the Trojans with most of the competition. California is gen erally rated on the bottom, mostly because Coach Stub Alli son has switched from last year's single wing with a man in motion to a modified T. Most teams don't look so good when changing systems of play as the Washington Redskins demonstrated a week ago against March Field. T QUARTER-FINALS Forest Hills, N. Y., Sept. 1. CUR) Taking a breather between bombing missions, MaJ. Alexan der (Zan) Carver had a little war of his own on his hands to day as he faced favored Fran cisco Segura in the national amateur tennis championship quarter-finals. Carver, a Flying Fortress pilot from Philadelphia who just returned after 20 months in the Pacific, gained the third round yesterday with an upset triumph over eighth-seeded Jack Jossi of Oakland, Calif. But the lean former North Carolina football and tennis star faced Segura! CROSETTI BELTS New York, Sept. 1 (U.fS Pennant fever, a chronic condi tion with the New York Yan kees which occurs as annually as hay fever, gripped the entire squad today and the guy spread ing the contagion was fiery Frankie Crosetti, the last of the old Bronx bombers. They're all gone but Frankie, but the sparky infielder remem bers the habits he acquired with other championship teams, so he hit a ninth inning homer with two out yesterday to give the Yankees a double victory over Washington, 9 to 4 and 4 to 3, an accomplishment which reduced the lead of the St. Louis Browns to just two games. Detroit scored three unearned runs off the jittery Browns at St. Louis, to win 4 to 3 last night. Paul (Dizzy)) Trout, doing a two inning relief stint for Frank Ovcrmire, gained his 23d victory. TO CUT ANGEL LEAD By United Press The Oakland Acorns, fighting for a place in the post-season Pacific Coast league playoffs, jammed across eight runs in the eighth inning against the lead ing Los Angeles Angels to win 12-3 last night and move within Vi games of fourth place. Portland cut Los Angeles' lead to 8V4 games by defeating San Diego for the third straight thrpp nut nf four from Hollv-! wood, 8-1, and Sacramento set back the Seattle Indians, 2-1. Roy Helser chalked up his 20th win of the year for Port land, holding San Diego to five hits and striking out 11 Padres. The Beavers, who got to Frankie Dasso for nine hits, were aided by six Padre errors. Score: San Diego 15 6 Portland 5 Dasso and Ballinger; and Adams. ly at Annapolis and West Point, N. Y.

Gicslcr's decision was made despite protests from William (Big Bill) Freclove, owner of the Los Angeles Mustangs, who got Washington In the draw but had not yet signed him. The edict following a meeting of the league's executive com mittee and was made "to not disappoint the public and In the interests of fair play," Giesler said.

Labrador in 1497, "I was lucky 'to get into the tournament and even luckier to get this far," Carver said. "I'm afraid Segura is too tournament sharp, but I'll sure give it a try." It will take a good try, too, to knock off the swarthy little Ecuadorian who mopped up everything In sight this season to rate the top-seeded role in the national, Segura had trouble warming up in his second round matoh but finally stopped Pvt.
