UCLA Line
SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10
(fl) California's defending Pa
cific Coast conference cham
pions go to Los Angeles to meet
UCLA Friday and Saturday In
what shapes up today as the
probable deciding aeries of the
1947 southern division basket
ball race.
But the Golden Bears will
have to perk up from last week.
Coach Nibs Price's men lost
three games in a row, to the
Oakland Bittnera of the Ameri
can Haskctball (AAU) league, to
St. Mary s, ana to santa tiura
Saturday night, 49-42.
Cal goes Into the Los Angeles
series with five wins and one
loss In conference play; UCLA
has a 4-2 allowing.
The southern division race,
even If not decided tills week
end, still is virtually the prop,
erty of either the Bears or the
Bml ns.
The only other contender was
Stanford, who split a two-game
series with USC at Los Angeles
last week-end.
The Trojan victory, the first
for USC as against five losses,
ruined the Indians' chances for
an upset advance Into the, top
half of the standings.
Mask-Weidner
Rematch Okayed
Agreeing to a five round
match, the Grey Mask will
tangle with Billy Weldner In
the main event of this week's
wrestling card. Promoter Mack
LUIard said he received a tel
egram from the Mask In Port
land over the week-end stipu
lating five heats.
Weldner had already agreed
to the fight- and whatever
length could be worked out.
LUIard said that since the
main event bout would be cut
one round, he would add that
stanza to one of the other bouts
so that a full measure of the
action will come to the fans.
