Bruins Will Have To Rise
To Great Heights in Bowl
(This it the sixl of a series
on learns in the bowl football
games.) G
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles (U.R) UCLA's
national championship football
team of 1954 was the best in the
school's history but Coach Hen
ry (Red) Sanders, today said this
year's Rose Bowl squad in some
Respects is even better.
"Call it will, faith, spirit this
team has a desire that is mag
nificent." Sanders said. "Aside
from the one game we lost to
Maryland, our squad has been
able to cope with the odds when
they were against us."
And that's the situation UCLA
probably will face when it meets
favored Michigan State in the
Rose Bowl. The team will have
to rise to a greater peak than

I ever before if it hopes to score
an upset.
UCLA will be making its 4th
appearance in the Rose Bowl
without having won the New
Year's classic once. The last time
the Bruins went to nearby Pas
adena for the post-season ap
pearance was two years ago.
Although UCLA shot into an
early lead, the Spartans of
Michigan State overcame the
lead in the second half as they
refused to let themselves get
beat. It was a game the Spar
tans wanted to win for Biggie
Munn who was retiring as head
coach.
Victim of Fate
The West generally felt that
UCLA was a victim of late last
year when the one appearance
in two years rule kept the
strongest team ever" fielded by
the Bruins from going to the
Rose Bowl.
The strength of the 1954 squad
was in its line which was at
least two deep at every position
with men of All-America or All-
Coast caliber. This year's line
was mainly the second string of
last year. But the current squad
isn't backed up by a second line
almost as good as the starters.
Sanders, however, says his
backfield this year is superior
to last year's although the per
sonnel isn't much different. The
same players have improved un
til they were almost not recognizable.
Tailback Sam Brown is the
rushing leader of the Pacific
Coast conference with a net of
829 yards and an average of 6.4
yards per carry.
Called Best Runner
Sanders calls Brown the best
runner he ever had at the key
tailback spot in his single wing
offense. But Brown credits full
back Bob Davenport with clear
ing the way. Joining these two
is wingback Jim Decker whose
reverses have averaged almost
five yards a play. The fourth
member is blocking quarterback
Bob Bergdahl.
Should Ronnie Knox be able
to play even to a limited degree,
his passing would add just the
touch of deception Sanders
needs if he hopes to beat the
Spartans. Knox has recovered
from an ankle break but is far
behind in work and may be off
form when the teams meet.
The 1954 team won by grind
ing opponents to bits and didn't
need a superior backfield. This

In this great State of Oregon, with its brilliant future, folks today seem to
give more-than-average attention to making their tomorrows brighter. Our
state ranks high in the number of people who regularly purchase United
States Savings Bonds, on both Payroll Savings and Bond-a-Month Plans.
Likewise, when Christmas approaches and people everywhere set out to
shop for family and friends, Oregonians are quick to see the many advan
tages of giving U. S. Savings Bonds as Christmas presents. They know how
easy a Savings Bond is to give no sizes or colors to worry about ! And
they know how wonderful a Savings Bond is to receive because it becomes
more valuable as time goes on.
U. S. Savings Bonds earn interest at an average of 3 per year,
compounded semi-annually, when held to maturity. Further
more, they can go on earning interest for as long as 19 years
and 8 months, giving back 80 more than you put in.
. .lis year, join your thousands of Oregon friends and neighbors who give
the gift that grows with the years a constant reminder of your thought
q fulness, and a symbol of his or her faith in the future.

Washington (U.R) The noted

"Benjamin Franklin, p r i n t e r,"

C. L. Jordan, chairman of the
250th anniversary committee of
the Franklin Institute, Philadel

Congress that organizations in
40 different countries already
have reported their plans to
honor Franklin, and the list
steadily expands-
.This interest, he said, "repre

example of international co
operation." In his own country, Franklin
is renowned as the one patriot
who had a large part in formu

Hero
He is known universally for
his studies of electricity and the
natural sciences.
But Franklin's memory has a
peculiar personal appeal to
many nations because of his
skill in communicating, printing
and publishing, as well as creat
ing, great ideas. He has become
a sort of apostle for the editorial
profession, the printing crafts
and the paper industry. .
Wherever newspapers are
printed, there is magic in his!
name. .
At Washington, events in Con
gress, the Library of Congress
and the Smithsonian Institution
will render tribute to Franklin's
versatile and universal genius. -
The Library of Congress has
an immense collection of his di
plomatic papers and will open
an exhibit Jan. 17. The U.S. gov
ernment, purchased about 2,500
Franklin items from a London
book dealer in 1882, and they
were in the custody of the De
partment of State until they
came to the Library in 1903.
The Smithsonian will display
a printing press used by Frank
lin in Philadelphia.
Medals lo Be Struck
Congress already has given
evidence of its extraordinary in
terest in the anniversary. At its
last session it enacted a bill di
recting the Secretary of the
Treasury to strike 71 . bronze
medals to commemorate the oc
casion. Twenty-one of these medals
will be given to the various sci
entific, artistic and learned so
cieties are found in the United
member. These still-existent so
cieties are found ni the United
States, England, Scotland,
France, Germany, Holland, Italy
and Spain.
The remaining 50 medals will
be given to 50 other institutions
and enterprises which were
founded or helped in their early
development by Franklin.
Franklin's achievements ex
tended into almost every field of
human endeavor, and the honors
accorded to him will vary with
the country. In France, for ex
ample, he will be honored as
"the great savant"; in Peru for
his liberty-loving philosophy
which influenced American in
dependence movements; in Ja
pan for his efforts toward inter
national understanding and
peace, and in India for his devo
tion to the interdependence of
nations and the unity of religions.
