Sports jpXl Briefs L I Hugh u T.i rullwtea, J.i-i, r Tl NEW YORK, Nov. 21 (The SdccIbI News Service) Chuck Hyatt, who always was this cor ner's Idea 01 tops among Dasicei- ball players, says Hank LuisetU is the greatest that ever uvea. "You hate to admit a fellow is that much better than you are, but he is," says Chuck, who ex plains that LuisetU is just "one of those naturals that come long" like Babe Ruth, Bobby Jones or Jack Dempsey . . . . Hyatt is plumb scared that his basketballers and the folks back home in Bartlesviue, Okie., will find out that he has been spend ing his spare time in New York taking rhumba lessons and not to learn any fancy steps to use on the court.

The triumph resulted largely from two Bulldog fumbles, one in the first period and the other In the third, with Halfback Ken ny Washington figuring promi- .. 11.. i U HV.nHnn in the second period, Halfback Cleveland, on a reverse, bobbled the ball right into Stonebraker's hands on the Bulldog 33. On first down, Washington cut through left tackle and went over the goal standing up. Rose Bowl Dreams Walk In Beaver, Husky Heads Candidates' Coaches Hope Pasadena Chances Won't Affect Saturday Play Br JIM SULLIVAN SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21 (UP Rose bowl dreams will be running through the heads of Oregon State and University of Washington teams Saturday as they meet Montana and Orvson, a pair of toughies, in Pacific Coast conference football games. And it was the earnest Thanksgiving prayer of Coaches Lon Stiner and Jimmy Phelan that their boys won't dream too much of Pasadena and use some attention and effort on disposing of Overlinj Hostak Battle Veteran Favorite Over Glass-Handed Seattleita NEW YORK, Nov. 21 (P) Ken Overlin of Washington, D. C, and Al Hostak of Seattle, a pair of former middleweight champs, square off tonight at Madison Square Garden to go 10 rounds or less in a light heavy weight scrap. Since the two fighters no long er are able to get down to the middle -weight poundage, both are eyeing the light heavy weight crown worn by Gus Lesnevich. Wrictalr " fnr. merly regarded as king of the 160-pounders by the NBA, will be making his first eastern appearance. His record lists 114 fights, most of which he won by knockouts. Overlin, a veteran of 12 years in the ring, has had six fights since he lost the middleweight throne to Billy Soose in May and is rated the favorite at odds of about 1 to 2. The betting boys are basing their judgment on the fact that Overlin has been : particularly hard on punchers in the past and because the fight is slated for the 10-round route. They figure his ancient legs will stay with him at least that long. Another 10-rounder on the card brings together Young Kid McCoy of Detroit and Ike Kap lan of Boston. Sportsmen To Discuss Farm Issue Farmer - hunter relationship will be the principal topic of discussion tonight as the Klam ath Sportsmen's association gathers for what may go down as one of the hottest meetings the group has ever held. The conclave will begin at 8 p. m in the Willard hotel. Principal speakers will be State Senator Lew Wallace of Multnomah county, democratic candidate for governor, and Art Einarson, regional northwest bio logist An explanation of antelope scoring and State Game commis sion awards, a new program in augurated this year in Lake county, will be given by Francis Olds, Klamath member of the commission. Linfield, Army Team Play to Tie ASTORIA, Nov. 21 WV-With neither team displaying power, Linfield college and the 249th coast artillery football team' played a scoreless Turkey day game here. The contest was largely a punting duel, with neither side getting a decisive advantage. Barker Picks the Favorites; He Sees Huskies, OSC, Gophers By HERB BARKER NEW YORK, Nov. 21 JP) Waiting - for the roof to fall in as usual, this corner does its guessing on this week's double- barreled football program: Minnesota-Wisconsin: Wiscon sin can score but the Badger defense has been sieve-like. Can't see the Gophers blowing this one. Minnesota. Notre Dame-Southern Califor nia: Nothing in the records to hearten the Trojans. Taking Notre Dame. Michigan-Ohio State: No bet ter than second place in the big ten apparently at stake. This may be the best game of the day. Michigan. Harvard-Yale: An upset of earth-shaking intensity If Yale can . do more than hold the score within reasonable bounds. Harvard. Penn-Cornell: Tough to guess. Penn has the better record but the Quakers no longer seem up to their early-season form. A flier on Cornell. Princeton-Navy: With the the matters immediately at hand. Stiner and Phelan know too well what happened to Oregon the day it was looking over its shoul' dcr at the Rose bowl whilo play ing UCLA in Los Angeles. Washington, led by Phelan, appears to have the tougher as signment against Oregon in Se attle. Both teams rested last week for this game, and the delay gave some of the injured Webfoot men a chance to improve their physical conditions. Oregon started fast and then bogged down in midscason. The word from Eugene is they are on their way back. Can't Lot Oregon State can't afford to lose to Montana or even to be tied, even though the game is considered "kings x" or "no count" in the conference race. A defeat at this time would irrevo cably harm the prestige of the Orangemen of Corvallis as the team most likely to go to Pasa dena now that Stanford has stum bled. These two games top what is a rather light football program in the west. Santa Clara winds up its worst season in six years in playing UCLA at Los Ange les. Santa Clara lost three this year and may lose again Satur day if UCLA'S "Q.T." formation clicks. USC, also experiencing a very bad season, can redeem all by taking Notre Dame, unbeaten so far, in their annual at South Bend. St. Mary's can do the same in its annual with Fordham in New York. Idaho ends its first season under Francis Schmidt highly favored to overwhelm Montana State at Boise. Califor nia and Stanford are resting for their titanic November 29. Wash ington State meets neighboring Gonzaga at Spokane. Tenpin Topics By John Foster Solaig Editor) Well, Saturday, the starting day of the annual state bowling congress, is practically upon us and the familiar thunder of fall ing pins will be heard in both of the Klamath alleys. Saturday won't be a big day of. rolling but starting Sunday uie alleys win be full of out-of- town keglers. Beginning Sun day morning at 10 a. m., six teams will start. They are: Per- kin's Building of Roseburg, Ce cil's Eats of Roseburg, Lund's Radio Repair of Roseburg, and the Office Supply, .Domestic laundry and Murray s Maid Rite of Medford. 'From then on, throughout the day, doubles and singles from Medford and Rose burg will try their luck. There will be no rolling of the City, Booster, Commercial and Classic leagues of the Klam ath circuit during the first week of the state doings. Before the state tournament has even started, Al Backes of the Recreation alleys, is trying to get the SP bowling tourna ment to be held here in Klam ath Falls. Part of the scheme Is favorable but other parts a bit hazy. It .seems that the Los An geles bowlers want to travel north but not as far as Klamath Falls. They would rather roll in San Francisco. The San Francisco keglers want to move north for the tour- Yale game behind them, doubt if the Tigers can work up the necessary enthusiasm. Navy. Kansas-Missouri: Kansas has pulled two big .surprises al ready this season but it would be a near-miracle if the Jay hawks took this. Missouri. - Vanderbilt - Alabama: Don't think the Commodores can stem the tide. Alabama. Georgia - Dartmouth: Looks SORftVl like simply a long ride for the Invading Dartmouths. Georgia. North Carolina State -Duke: Duke to finish unbeaten, untied and invited. Oregon State Montana: One step closer to Pasadena for Ore gon State. Washington-Oregon: Not easy. Picking Washington. a . . mm Seeks Title Don Poulln. Salem, 1940 all- rants winner In the annual Stat Bowling tourney at Marsh field, will sk to retain his tltl in th 1941 tourney open ing Saturday night on Klamath Recreation alleys. Arizona Best Offensive Eleven SEATTLE, Nov. 21 (UP) The Arizona Wildcats, with an aver age gain per game of 373.5 yards in eight contests, moved into first place among the nation's collegi ate elevens in offensive figures released Thursday by the Amer ican football statistical bureau.

Hurdler, today headed the 1941 all-America junior college track and field team named by the National Junior College association. Davis, who has run the 100 yards in 9.4 seconds and the 220 in 20.5 seconds, made the team for both events for the sec ond straight year. nament and Klamath would be the ideal place. As for the Portland bowlers, they want to move south and here is Klam ath Falls staring them in the face. That makes two to one and anything could happen. If the Southern Pacific tourney Is held here it will take place in February. Most of last year's champions in the state doings will be in Klamath Falls trying to regain their titles. There are a few titles, however, that are now open. Yes, sir, it will be a big time in Klamath between No vember 22 and December 7. By virtue of a small mistake, your reporter was reminded that this year's entry surpasses last year's at Marshfield. In the pa per, in big letters, it said, 61 teams enter men's kegler meet. WeU .... the truth of the mat ter is, there are 63 teams en tered. OPEN SUBSIDIZATION NEW YORK Student editors of New York university papers ask for subsidization of football players. Army-West Virginia: Could be a surprise, for the Mountain eers are improving. A not-too-confident ballot for Army. Columbia Colgate: Columbia was battered badly in its past two games and this vote for Colgate is based on the, assump tion the Lions won't be able to recover physically in time. Fordham - St. Mary's: The Rams have had plenty of time to forget the Pitt debacle. Ford ham. Holy Cross-Temple: Both in-and-outers. Therefore, out of the hat, Holy Cross. Pitt-Penn State: Can Pitt stay "up" three weeks in a row? Guessing that the answer is "yes," we'll take Pitt. Villanova- Auburn: Probably c!ose.On a sheer guess, Vlllan ova. Northwestern-Illinois: No pos sible selection but unlucky Northwestern. Indiana Purdue: Anything can happen here. One vote for Billy Hillenbrand and Indiana. Trojans Stagger Into N. D. U.S.C. Given Only Slight Chance to Trouble Unbeaten Irish By STEVE SNIDER CHICAGO. Nov. 21 (UP) Southern California, a jinx team for Notre Dame, staggers into tho midwest Saturday with only faint hopes of destroying Irish chances for the first undefcatod football season since the golden era of Knute Rockne. Beaten four times in six games, Its chief weakness is made to order for Notre Dame's most potent weapon the forward pass. Nothing could be sweeter from the Irish point of view. With Angelo Bcrtelll throwing against a weakness on pass defense, Notre Dame is a prohibitive fa vorite at 13 V points to make youthful Frank Leahy the first coach since Rockne to bring an Irish team all through a season without a defeat. Attitude Worries - Leahy's worry, however, is the mental attitude of his players and of the invading Trojans. Twice In 1 1 years. Southern Cali fornia's Inspired teams have whipped previously undefeated Notre Dame in the final game of the season. Mentally, the Tro jans are primed for this one and Notre Dame, Just through a bruis ing 7 to 8 victory over North western, Is considerably let down. Since defeating Oregon State, 13 to 7, in the season's opener, Southern California has been hit hard by injuries and illness and by mid-season the only resem blance between this team and tho powerhouses coached by the late Howard Jones was the color of its uniforms. The disintegration began early In the 33 to 0 rout by Ohio State and Coach Sam Barry only now is putting together the pieces, aided by a schedule which has sent Southern Cali fornia info action but once in the last three weeks. Batiste, who comes from Tuc son, Ariz., was named for the high .hurdles, low hurdles and high jump. James Doyle, miler from Trin idad, Colo., was the only ath lete named from outside Cal ifornia. Hilmer Lodge, secretary of the association, said the per formances of 650 Individual competitors were considered in Junior colleges of 34. states in making the selections. All those chosen competed in the national meet at Denver this year. Lodge said tho 1942 meet would be held either at San Bernardino or Visalia, Cal.
