FOULS OUT TRYING TO REIVE HOPE FOR UPSET Los Apgeles, Oct. 8 U.R California's dogged underdogs aren't supposed to win tomor row's "triple crown" football game with Southern California, but If they negotiate an upset their satisfaction at crossing up the experts Is likely to top any other rewards for victory. It Is more than Just football game, this annual classic which rates aa the top feature of the west coast season to date, be cause to the winner Is likely to go the California championship, the Pacific coast title and a Rose Bowl bid. ' Coach Pasilmlstlo But so far as these rewards are concerned they are for the moment at least, secondary to the Ire of Golden Dear followers over their consistent role of un derdog. Frpsh from their 8 to 0 upset of UCLA, they feel they are entitled to at least even money consideration against Southern California and there Is at least one person who concurs In that belief. It's Coach Jeff Cravath of Southern California. "We probably will lose," he said. "Last week when we bent College of Pacific, the boys tried and fought hard enough, but there was Just something lack ing and we'll have to find out what It Is pretty darn quick." The Trojans have been guilty of repeated fumbles In both games to dnte and have had a number of their drives checked by costly penalties They have yet to show the ability to stage a sustained downfield offensive. UCLA Has Edge In other games this week, UCLA will be out to redeem It self against San Diego Naval Sta tion and rates a slight edge, be cause the Navy team Isn't stock ed with as good material as a year ago Washington' Huskies play Willamette In a return en gagement and should do about as well as the first time when they won 70 to 0. The star-arrayed Fourth Air Force Fliers play the Fleet City Naval Hase eleven and Alameda Coast Guard opposes the freshman-dominated St. Mary's team. BOWLING Bowling In the Ladles' league last night, Tolley's C.llmnres won 3 to 1 over the Medford Alleys (Swope 1(18 and 473; The Rolling Pins won 3 to 1 from First National Bank (Dcvore 187 and 45D); Walnscotts took all four points from Henry's Drlvo In (Barr 164 and 488).

In the early half of the double main event Jack Kizer tossed Paavo Kato- nen two out of three falls. Promoter Mack Lillard's weekly wrestling card was prac tically a free-for-all by. the end of the Mask-Davidson event. Da vidson, who had made up his mind to remove the hood from the Mask's head or else, tossed Yoakley out of the ring In his attempt to unfasten the cords at the back of the Mask s head. The crowd goaded Davidson on and In an effort to bring things under- control, Yoakley awarded the match to the Mask on a foul. Neither contender was too clean In his wrestling and thej Mask took the first fall with! his noggin buster and a leg strap, In no time at all Davidson was again on the Mask In his effort to rip the hood away. They were up and down and Buck Ignoring every attempt of the referee to leave the hood alone, tossed Yoakley out of the ring. Promoter Llllard Is being pressed to rematch the pair. Klzcr, who defeated Katonen recently to take the light heavy weight belt away from him, took the first fall In 10 minutes with a shoulder stand and after 12 minutes Katonen had Kizer In a Boston crab.

Even In games where the teams appear evenly matched, the prospects are strong for lib eral scoring on both sides, some thing that contrasts sharply with the yester-year defensive battles which found big and bruising elevens pushing each other about at length in mid-field. Tomorrow's top games provide such evenly rated meetings as Yale-Cornell, Pennsylvania-Dart mouth, Purdue -Illinois, Minnesota-Michigan, California-South ern California, Kentucky-Michigan State, Rice-Loulslana State and Kansas State-Missouri. Odds Noar Even Oddmakers are willing to con cede little cither way on these games with most rated either at even money or 6 to 5 and with differences of opinion In every section over the probable win ners. Most of the other top flight teams are expected to have easier sledding.
