GOLF PRO RESIGNS
The Dalles -tUPD- Jim Chen
owith, golf professional at
The Dalles Country Club for
three years, has resigned ef
fective Nov. 1.
the present season. Ohio State
led the first week, then Au
burn, followed by Army for
the past two weeks.
Oddly, the top four teams
have identical records of four
victories and one tie. The 35
leading coaches who comprise
the UPI rating board chose
those four over Louisiana
State and Mississippi, both of
which have perfect records.
LSU Ranked Fifth
LSU was ranked fifth and
Mississippi sixth, followed in
order by Oklahoma, Purdue,
Wisconsin and Pittsburgh. The
last three teams in the top
10 were newcomers to this
week's select group.
All but one of the first
place votes were scattered
among the top five teams.
Iowa had nine, LSU eight.
Auburn seven. Army six and
Ohio State four. The other
first-place ballot went to 11th
ranked Colorado, which is
unbeaten and untied.
Another big shakeup in the
ratings can be expected after
next Saturday's clashes be
tween several of the leading
teams. Iowa, which knocked
both Wisconsin and North
western out of the perfect
record ranks on the previous
two Saturdays, next plays
Michigan. Army also takes on
a soft touch in Colgate.
Faces Trouble
But several other leading
powers face trouble. LSU and
Mississippi, the two perfect
record giants, meet Saturday
night; Ohio State faces 12th
rated Northwestern; seventh
rated Oklahoma plays 11th
rated Colorado for Big Eight
conference supremacy; eighth
rated Purdue takes on Illinois;
ninth-rated Wisconsin plays
Michigan State, and 14th
rated Navy meets 15th-rated
Notre Dame.
Texas, fourth last week,
dropped all the way back to
16th after losing to Rice, the
Owls moving up to 13th.
Southern Methodist, Texas
Christian and Air Force Acad
emy were tied for 19th, and
North Carolina was 20th.

Legal Mess
San Francisco-flJPD-William
G. Dunn, 34, returned to court
today to unravel a legal tan
gle which developed when he
appeared to plead innocent to
charges of taking a poke at
the coach of the Chicago
Bears.
Dunn, of Palo Alto, Calif.,
appeared before Municipal
Judge Edward F. O'Day Mon
day and identified himself as
attorney "Jack Sawaty," rep
resenting Dunn.
O'Day, the bailiff and the
press assumed the man was
whom he said.
But the arresting officer,
Patrolman William Porter, la
ter remembered him and
O'Day immediately issued a
bench warrant for Dunn's arrest.
Dunn returned to court la
ter and apologized, saying he
was confused and gave the
wrong name during his brief
court appearance. O'Day sus
pended the warrant, but or
dered Dunn back to court to
day.

more than just a passing team
with its ace thrower, Bob
Newman laid up. He said the
Cougars displayed a pesky
running attack from unortho
dox formations.
Turning to his own team,
Barnes lauded the perform
ance of tailback Chuck Ken
dall who made more than 100
yards rushing despite a knee
that gives him trouble. He
also praised the green hands
UCLA was forced to use in
place of six seniors who had
used up their five-game eligi
bility.
Hit Tackling Hard
"We know Washington
State has a veteran line and
some fine backs but our kids
are in good spirits and feel
they can win," Barnes said.
'We showed poor tackling
and defensive work against
Stanford and we'll concen
trate on those things in prac
tice this week."
Trojan quarterback Willie
Wood was voted college play
er of the week for his per
formance in hurling the win
ning touchdown pass against
Washington State despite a
sore arm and his lack of prac
tice from being laid up three
weeks.
It was Wood's first appear
ance since he cracked his col
larbone and his left arm was
almost useless to him. But the
little back' still provided the
spark for Southern Cal's sec
ond win of the season, Clark
pointed out.
Wood Not Hurt Bad
','We didn't play as well as
we should have against Wash
ington State," Clark said. "A
late injury to halfback An-
gelo Coia upset our game
plans'. We hope he will be
able to recover in time for
the Stanford game."
Although Wood suffered a
bruise on his ailing shoulder,
he was expected to be avail
able for some action again
Saturday, team trainers re

Sid Gillman of the Rams,
disappointed in his team's loss
to the Lions Sunday, defend

if his receivers allowed the
ball to bounce off their chests
into the arms of the Lions. .

Team Effort Responsible
For California's 23-6 Win
Palo Alto, Calif. (UPD- Joe
Kapp had a whale of an after
noon last Saturday against
Oregon, and coach Pete Elli
ott feels that the long-striding
quarterback can . thank a
"team effort" which made it
possible.
"It was team effort that
beat Oregon, 23-6 and team ef
fort that helped Joe have such
a big day," Elliott told the
Northern California Football
Writers Association Monday.
"In fact, it was the best com
bined operation we have had
all season. Our defense helped
us the most. Our tackling was
good and our goal line stand
in the first half meant a lot."
Elliott, insisting that' the
Bears are not thinking of the
Rose Bowl even if they do
lead the Pacific Coast Confer
ene with a 3-0 mark, warned
that they still have more than
half of their league play to
get through, starting with Ore
gon State at Corvallis next
Saturday.
Tough As Predicted
"And that team has settled
down and is just as tough as
people expected it to be," El
liott said.
Pete, asked to contrast this
year's team " which is on a
four-game winning streak and
last season's big loser, merely
said, "The boys have picked
up more experience and fi
nesse." Sid Hall, freshman coach of
College of Pacific, took over
for Jack Myers whose shat
tered Tigers are in the Mid
west fresh from being beaten
by underdog Marquette, 27-18.
"Jack really was singing
the blues when he phoned in,"
Hall said. "It appears that
Marquette was just up for the
game and we weren't. The
next stop is at Boston College
which has one of the biggest
lines in the country."

But O'Connor has been

O'Connor had the option of
