giyMcGILLICUDDY BIHPZ -
Mr. Frank Glanelli, who seems to work overtime recogniz
ing disputants to Klamath's claim on the state gridiron cham
pionship, said in his Oregonian column Sunday that the Van
couver defeat "sort of gums up the Pelicans' rosy record as Ore
gon's outstanding team and gives Newbcrg the chance it has
been hollering for." Newbcrg as claimant for the state title, said
Brother Gianclli, "has just as good reason to shout as has Klam
ath Falls ... for Newbcrg bopped off Woodburn, Beaverton,
Tigard, Hlllsboro, Forest Grove, McMinnvillc and West Linn."
GianoUl is haywire when he
says Newbcrg s Oregon record
Is as good as Klamath's. Strange
bs it may seem, we've never
seen the Klamath record pub
lished in Gianelli's column.
The Klamath and Newberg
teams have played in entirely
different class of competition,
as everybody knows. While
Newberg was defeating such
teams as Tigard, West Linn and
Forest Grove, Klamath was
smacking Grant of Portland,
Eugcnt, Mcdford, Bend, Ash
land and Grants Pass.
Klamath's record against Ore
gon opponents is 178 to 6. New
berg's is 121 to 18.
Mr. Gianelli wouldn't want
to cover a game between the
Pelicans and Newberg, but if
one is arranged he ought to
have to be there with his adding
machine.
. On the subject of the Van
couver game, Gianelli says:'
"Losing a game 6 to 0 or 7
to 6 isn't so bad, but 20 to 6
comes under the head of a
thumping."
Yep, that's right. That's 14
points difference. But a while
back Grant, which was de
feated IS to 0 by Klamath
Falls IS points difference
got a plug from Gianelli as a
state champion contender.
Getting technical, wasn't that
a thumping?
Klamath's claim to the state
title is as clear as anybody can
make It, under the existing set
up which calls for no formal
method of determining the ti
tlist. So far as we have learned,
there has been no formal chal
lenge from Newberg, what is
known here being confined to
what appeared in various
papers. Marshfield, which is
tied but undefeated, is now
hankering for a game with
Klamath. -
Marshfield has not been de
feated, but it was tied once.
That was with Grants Pass,
and you know what the Peli
cans did to Grants Pass. Cor-
; tainly Klamath doesn't have
to play Marshfield to clear
any blemish on its state title
record.
On October 29, the day be
fore Klamath played Grants
Pass, Matt Kramer of the As-
sociated Press started his!
. ' statewide story:
"Klamath Falls' powerful Pel
icans can win southern Oregon
championship tomorrow and
virtually clinch a claim on
the state title."
After that, Klamath defeat
ed Grants Pass and Bend,
concluding its regular Oregon
competition. That's about all
that could be expected.
Big Doug McKay had just a
moment for glory in the Van
couver game, but he made the
most of it.
Doug got in on two plays in
the last quarter after Klamath
was too far behind to catch up.
On the first play, he ran S3
yards on a honey of a pass from
Hank Schortgen, for the long
est gain of the evening for eith
er team. On the second play,
he smashed nine yards for the
longest rushing gain Klamath
was able to make in the game.
Those two plays, plus a short
smash by Schortgen, brought
the lone Pelican touchdown. .
Would McKay and Schort
gen have made a difference
in the outcome of the game if
they had started way back
there when it became appar
ent the first stringers just
Fullback Buck Fawcett picked up eight yards, going to California's 25-yardlIne and a first
down on this first period play in the "big game" at Berkeley between Stanford and California.

NEW YORK, Nov. 23 (IP)
Sixteen of the nation's college
football teams have finished the
season . with all-victorious rec
ords, leaving only three others
Tulsa, Georgia Tech and Bos
ton college with chances to
complete their . schedules un

The select group lost two of
its members Saturday when
Georgia, winner of its nine pre

a seven-game winner, was
held to a scoreless tie by Texas

Tulsa and Georgia Tech are
the only teams in the unbeaten,
untied ranks with as many as
nine victories. Tulsa is the scor

now has yielded 25 points to op
ponents. Boston college, with

weren't clicking? That's any
body's guess, but we have a
feeling that big Doug would
have softened up that Trapper
line - with those smashes the
Eugene team is still talking
about. .
Klamath hasn't had to punt
much this year, but Don Mast
did a swell job with his
boots in the Trapper game. A
blocked punt spoiled his aver
age, but he made most of his
kicks effective by keeping them
away from the dangerous- Al
linger, who . was in the Trapper
safety position. Out of six kicks
that got away, AUinger 'got a
chance to return only two of
them. One of Mast's- kicks lay
down on the 10-yard line at the
side as nicely as if he had walk
ed up and placed it'there.
We're glad Don. played It
smart that way,: but we admit
seeing AUinger take a kicked
ball, bounding full tilt, was one
of the prettiest things we have
seen in football in many years.

SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 23
(IP) A first class farmer and
cow hand if the Dodgers can
find one-;-may mean the differ

- It's not that the denizens of
Flatbush need someone to look
after the cows. But Adolph Ca
milli does.
'Camilli, the Dodgers' first
baseman and most valuable
player in the National league last
year, has declared his intention
not to return to the Brooklyn'
club next year. He found it too
much of a burden, he said, to try
to operate his 2800-acre ranch
near Laytonville, Calif., and to
maintain a home in the east too
for his wife and five children.

Bears To
Make New
Grid Tale
Redskin Victory Will Give
Bears Six Straight Title
By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN
CHICAGO, Nov. 23 (IP) The
Chicago Bears will become the
only team in major professional
football history to win six na
tional championships if they beat
the Washington Redskins in the
nation's capital December 13.
But if you think that's an in
centive, what about the one the
Redskins have? That 73-0 de
luge the Bears poured on them
two years ago never can be for
gotten, but it can be revenged.
And that's the stimulant which
may make this playoff the tough
est the National Football league
has seen. Washington already
has had one shot at the Bears
this season in an early exhibi
tion, but lost 38 to 14.
The Bruins won the western
division title yesterday by giv
ing the Detroit Lions their 10th
straight defeat, 42 to 0 worst
blanking of the season while
the New York Giants and Green
Bay tied 21-all, removing any
mathematical chance the Pack
ers cherished of catching up.
Washington moved in by dunk
ing the Dodgers of Brooklyn 23
to 3 and will close its regular
schedule at Detroit this Sunday.
Unbeaten in 22 consecutive
games and averaging more than
34 points in each of nine straight
league triumphs this fall, the
Bears return to Wrigley field to
meet the Cleveland Hams, wind
ing up the following week
against the Chicago Cardinals,
In walloping the Lions, the
Bears piled up their biggest vic
tory margin of the campaign on
three touchdown tosses by Char
ley O'Rourke and two by Sid
Luckman in an aerial sideshow
which followed Harry Clark's 26
yard sprint for the first score.
The rampage raised the cham
pions' total offensive record
through nine games to 3131
yards, an average of 347 as com
pared with 388 last season.

UCLA Still Two Games Away From Rose
Bowl Game Claim; May Get Nod if Tie
Bv RUSSELL NEWLAND '
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 23 (!) Pigskin review: Football'!
lone coast conference encounter this weekend pits Washington..
Stato against University of Washington, at Si'tittlo, si?
Tho meeting of these bitter rivals annually Is a gunrantra
of action (capital letters Mr. Printer) but this year far more Jm
portance will ride on the outcome. There Is a possible Rose Bowl
nomination for Washington State In the offing if It wins handi
ly, the more so tho better.
By winning this ono Washington State can clinch Itself noth-
Ing less than a tie for tho conference chnnipionsmp. lonscquem
ly It will havo solid clulms to offer when tho ton moniucrs vote
for their Rose Bowl representative.
There is nothing more con-
vlnclng than tho homo run play
and Washington State is up to
bat. It will wind up league com
petition for the two teams. Wash
ington Is out of tho race and
would like to lock tho brakes
on Its homo state rival.
Tho win would fix the final
WSC standing at six victories
and one loss. Another defeat
would knock the northern Cou
gar out of contention.
If Washington Stato comes
through, the burden shifts to tho
University of California at Los
Angeles Bruins, also defeated
once. They must still play Ida
ho, no fears there, Dccomber 8,
and Southern California, great
cause for alarm there, December
12, and win both games to even
lie with WSC.
This season's schedule failed
to match up WSC and UCLA,
as if the conference voting
heads haven't stowed over this
problem already. In case the
two teams tied for the title, how
ever, there Is no doubt UCLA
would get tho Rose Bowl
nod, merely by having beaten
Southern California, a feat which
it stands a good chance not to
accomplish, Southern California
Inflicted the only conference de
feat on Washington Stato, 26-12.
Perhaps Southern California
itself moy wind up in the Rose
Bowl, New Yeor's doy. The
Tl'rojans still have an excellent
cnance, wun only one ueicai ana
a tie against them.
Southern California's newly
acquired scoring power will be
tested against Notre Damo Sat
urday In Los Angeles. Notre
Damo is neither the best nor the
worst team In the country but it
swamped Stanford 27-0 early In
the season and Stanford holds a
14-6 win over Southern Cali
fornia. However Stanford has come
a long way since October 10 and
If it isn't the strongest team in
the conference today it is within
a Jump of being so. Stanford
gave its oldest rival, California,
a 26-7 beating, Saturday, and
meets the St. Mary's Navy Pre
Flight eleven this weekend.
After barely getting by Wash
ington by a 14-10 count last
week (Washington fumbled away
the winning touchdown when it
was on the one-yard lino and
had four downs to make It), the
UCLA Bruins take a rest
this week, ,
Oregon State travels to East
Lansing for a game with Mich
igan State after crushing Uni
versity of Oregon, 30-2, last
