UCLAN ACE RUNS
BEARS HELPLESS
FOR 13 TOO WIN
Los Angeles, Oct. 13 (U.R)
Cal Rossi, 170 pounds of speed
and drive, ran the University of
California ends and tackles dizzy
today to lead the University of
California at Los Angeles foot
ball team to a 13 to 0 victory be
fore 52,000 fans at the Memorial
Coliseum.
California's pre-game a slight
favorite because of the recent
addition of three backs, showed
the same completely important
offense that characterized its
play against Southern California
two weeks ago.
Coach Bert Labrucherie, ap
parently working hard on his
team's two weaknesses pass of
fense and pass defense saw his
team bottle up the California
passing threat as well as the
running attack, and at the same
time moved consistently on Ernie
Case's spot passes.
California never made a real
scoring threat throughout the
game, but it took UCLA more
than a period to make its way
through the stout California line.
When UCLA finally got going,
it was the swivel-hipped Rossi,
who leaves UCLA in two weeks,
who led the way for a victory
that was more one-sided than the
score reveals.
UPSET 8-0 WIN
TO BEAT COUGAR

ington's Huskies turned on a
powerful ground attack in the

A crowd of 35,000 saw Coach
Pest Welch's eleven beat down
WSC's powerful opening attack
in the first period. Washington
took full advantage of the break
down in the Cougar's aerial of
fensive and turned loose a strong
ground drive that finally paid off
with one minute, forty-five sec
onds left in the final period when
left half Gordon Hungar broke
through left tackle and galloped
40 yards across Washington
State's pay stripe standing up.
Washington failed to add the
point when the kick went wide.
Washington's victory gave them
their season's first win in the tra
ditional contest for the gover
nor's trophy. With one more
game to play this year the trophy
race found Washington leading
over a 45-year period with 22

A LABOR UNION'S
EIITOET to the PUBLIC
ON THE
LUMBER STRIKE!
There is only one issue involved in the present tie-up of the lumber industry
of the Pacific Northwest! That is the issue of a decent living wage for
workers in the timber and sawmills. Efforts to drag in other issues, such as
jurisdictional misunderstandings, are purely "stalling" tactics to confuse
the public and some of the workers themselves.
IS S1.IO AN HOUR Unreasonable?
The Lumber and Sawmill Workers, A. F. of L., called this strike only to
enforce their demand for a minimum hourly wage of $1.10 (some present
minimums are as low as 70 cents). Under this rate a married worker with
one child gets "take home pay" of only $38.90 from his gross pay of $44.00.
How many of you would like to work in the most hazardous industry in the
country and maintain a family on less than $39? These are the workers who
were "frozen" on their jobs at wages far below wages paid imported, unskilled
workers in other defense industries. They are now asking only fair play
and living wages. Is this so "unreasonable"?
BIG WARTIME PROFITS A FACTOR J
Operators have said nothing about whether they are able to meet this wage
demand. Nor have they said anything about their large wartime profits.
Other business and labor leaders are pointing out, however, that most of the
operators have "cleaned up" and for the balance of the year are operating
under the excess profits bracket of the corporation income tax. Apparently
they are not concerned whether mills operate, nor whether employees work.
But the public is concerned, we believe! Tens of thousands want to build
homes of their own, they want to be employed and have others employed at
living wages! They want Economic Freedom to mean something!
CAST YOUR VOTE FOR A LIVING WAGE!
Please express your honest convictions on this issue! Write or tell business
leaders and big sawmill companies what you think. And please fill in the
ballot below and mail it today. You can help fellow Americans get
living wages!
