The trial, which started yesterday is being held on Mable Liskey's Lost River Ranch. All of the trophies in this picture were won in a single day at the Ore gon Retriever Club's trial in Portland in 1952. They were for best looking and working dog, best amateur handler, first place in the Open All. Age and a fourth in the Amateur All Age. ' Derby Entries Topped By Sparkle of Madosa SMU Coach Mastered Grid Style 1 By GAYLE TALBOT DALLAS l.n Tills is the land where razzle dazzle tooiball wa invemca, DacK some 25 years ago; when Ray Morrison was coaching the Southern Methodist Mustangs. It was Ray's notion that you could gain ground twice as fast by throw ing a pigskin through the air as you could by toting it overland, and he won a great deal of pub--Jicity. 1 "' ' . Not only Morrison won much notice over the country, but the Southwest Conference as well. This was a new kind of football, where things moved in a hurry. Thi writer Knows. Because he was here, and he thought he was see ing something very good invented. He thought, those sups up in the North and East still are moving the football on the ground a few yards at a time, while down here under the open skies we simp gulp up territory by pegging the bull. I Well, something or other has; gone full cycle since we were here last. The teams down here in the; maddest football state of all, .where ' every child Is born with a silver, headguard in his mouth, are going ; looking for guards and tackles and : ball carriers who can wrestle their way through a line. They have found that, while the forward pass can be a blessing if you happen to have a great passer on the roster. i- also can be an awful detriment to national ranking, which all schools seem to love nowadays. In other words, the Southwest Conference which was our origin al love has learned (lie hard way that if it is going to compete against the tough clubs outside its own set it had better learn to move the ball overland, and our own opinion Is that this' is a much more severe set of football teams down here as a result. Going into the coming campaign. four of the seven Southwest Con-! ference teams use the splhT for-1 mation, which does not encourage: passing, but is essentially a run-j ning arrangement. Two employ J the straight T-formation. which i gives the quarterback about an ' even choice, and only Arkansas, which seldom is an important quantity in the race, stays with! the single wing attack. 1 "For a period of years," we are told, "the Southwest Conference produced a series of the greatest forward passers the game has ev er seen. The latest was Fred Ben ners at SMU, only a few years aao. He didn't think anything of throwing close to 50 a game. He completed a lot of them, too but the Methodist never did win a con ference title while he was tossing for them." So it finally became knovn that you couldn't win a Southwest Con ference title simply by filling the air with footballs, much less com pete on even terms with a rough customrr to the north named Okla homa, which mainly ran you down on the ground and threw only an occasional pass, but with devastat ing effect when it did. "I would say that Oklahoma had more to do with making our con- ference balance its game than any- thing else," we are told.

Win Skein BROOKLYN W The Brooklyn Dodgers snupped Milwaukee's 10 game winning streak with a 2-1 rain-soaked victory last night, but it was not until today that a ruling by League President Warren Giles made it ofticial. Sound confusing? Well, 'that's the way things happen at Ebbets Field. Here are the weird details: The Etame started 25 minutes late because of rain. The Braves scored a quick run off Billy Loes on Joe Adcock's first-inning home run, his 23rd of the season and his ninth at Ebbets Field. The Dodgers roared back with two runs In their half of the first to drive Lew Bur dette off tile mound. " Pee Wee Reese's double, Gil Hodges' triple and Sandy Amoros' single produced the runs. Rain called a 85-minute halt with the Dodgers at bat in the fourth. With the Dodgers at bat in the fifth and with two on and none out, the rain came down harder than ever and again the game had fo be halted. The time was now 10:53 p.m. (EDT). An hour and 17 minutes later, at 12:50 a.m. with the rain showing no signs of letting ud. Umnire-in- Chlef Larry Goetz announced the game was off. He declined to call It an official Frame because by now the clubs had run into the curfew law which states that no inning of any game can start after 12:50 a.m. That's when the confusion start ed. Under baseball rules, a game stopped by rain becomes official if 4'i innings are played with the home team ahead. A game hailed by curlew, however, under Nation al League rules, may be resumed at a later date. Asked whether this was an offi cial gome, Goetz said: "I don't know. I ll have (o talk to the boss (Giles)." E. J. (Buzzie) Bavasi. vice president of the Dodgers, Immedi ately announced, he would lodge an official protest If Giles' decision was anything but a Dodger victory. Reached at his home in Cincin nati Giles first said he would not make his decision until Saturday morning. Pressed for an immedi ate decision by Bavasi,. Giles con ferred with Goetz and finally made his decision shortly after 2 a.m. "After setting all the details from the umpires." Giles said. "I find that they waited sufficient time and it is a legal game. I real ize the importance of this game, but it :cannot and should not be treated differently from any other." , Giles based his ruling on the fact lhat It was rain, rather than the curfew, that caused the halting of the game. Braves' Boss Shruggs Off Teams Defeat BROOKLYN Manager Char lie Grimm shrugged off Milwau kee's loss to Brooklyn last night that ended the Braves' 10-game winning streak and predicted his sizzling second placers would start another one. We've hod three 10-game win ning streaks this season." he said calmly, "we've still got time for a i lourth." I Another manager might have been fuss in' and fumin' over the 2-1 defeat in a game halted by rain after 42 innings. But Charlie took It philosophically. "It's no use crying." he said. "They scored more runs than we did in the same amount of innings. So that's that. Besides, I don't be lieve in looking back. We've Just got to go out and win today, to morrow, the day after that and the day after that." .I'VV-S. -'.-,V V'. r- 'jv er- c r-it 1 w.-5 "J ' I;:; V ' 'tr 'vW , W GIVING SOME LAST MINUTE Instructions for preparation for tonight's football game with the Grant High Generals of Port land is Pelican backfield coach Gerald Bevans, center, who is talking things over with Dave Pepple, left, a letterman halfback, and Chuck Guptill, another letter winner vho will be doing the quarterbacking for this year's team. Right, Grant's big threat will probably be in the passing department, and to lead the Generals is Don Clark, who is one of the Grant returning lettermen. Game time is 8:00 at Modoc Field. cn To Top Coast Teams By JACK IIEWINS SEATTLE iiP. One of these ! years It's gonna happen and this I could be it ' but the odds arc ' pretty long. One of these years a team from the Nawth is going to mop up the California Big Four and skitter Into the Rose Bowl. Ever since the wan the Pasadena Dish has been nothlnir more than mirage to football teams up here in Jie Evergreen country. Two Northern teams have the potential to pick off the Pacific Coast Conference Hag and bowl bid. but both need all the breaks they can get. One of them all but cut its own throat with a suicide schedule. In nicking the probable winner vou have to go along with the South again and keep your fingers crossed for the Little Brothers up here In the tall and uncut. The nine conference schools will finish like this in Noven-ber and don't tell anybody we told you: 1. California.

In spite of the pre season hoop-te-do and a great line, we don't think Red Sanders has the stuff to stop California. The drawling Mr. Sanders has a tailor made schedule, with only six con ference games plus San Diego Navy, Kansas and Maryland. The latter is the only tough test outside th'2 loop and Red will have, breath ers or byes belore his big games. Finish: Conference 5-1, season 8-1. 3. Washington State. Al Kirchcr is enjoying life immensely this season, currying a loaded team into an unsuspecting conference. But tho Cougar schedule is a killer, with Southern California as the opener in the Los Angeles Bnke Oven and Texas and Michi gan State for breathers. His ju niors may be a year away, but Kircher could fool 'cm this season if his backs come through. Finish: Conference 5-2. season 6-4.4 4. Southern California.

Mi'i-lwrlr-i"-"J-' " "-" Powerful Generals in Town Klamath Union High School Pel lcans kick off their 1954 football schedule tonight at Modoc Field as they meet the Gram High Generals from Portland in the first gridiron action here this year, with game time at 8:00. Coach John McGlnnls, who has been temporarily sidelined with major surge;y last weekend, will probably be back with Uie local hl!h school grldders, but his two assistants, Gerald. Bevans and Har. ry Russell will probably continue to do most of the piloting tonight for the first-year head grid boss. Grant is always one of the tough schools in the Portland city league, and this year there seems to be no different story from the Generals' camp. Seventeen lettermen greeted head coach Hank Pond when the season opened for the Portland prepsters. including his first string: ouanerback from last year. Bob Clark, and the city's leading scorer last season. Jack Bcaudoln, -who will run out of a halfback spot against the Pelicans tonight. The Generals possess two light, ning fast ends and a good passer, which Indicates that they may use plenty of passes before the evening is over, Manny Robinson, who played quarterback last season, and Bruce Wllkins, both 150 pounders will handle the Vvl'ng posts for Pond's eleven tonight, while Don Quinn, a 210 pound letterman and Jim McDonald, who scales In at 190 pounds will handle the tackle positions. Ouard spots will bo taken care of by Larry Snyder and Al Menu sheo. 185 and 175 pounders respec tively, and Joe Snider will handle the center positions for the lnvad ing Generals, who seem to be filled with plenty of spirit. In the backfield, Jim Brown and Larry Hoffman, both lettprmen, will round out the Portland prep slers1 backfield In the fullback and right halfback positions. Clark wL'l do the quarterbacking and Beau aoln operates at the left half posi. Hon. Grant's overall attack seems to be very well fortified with Clark i a dangerous passer and with run ners like Beaudoln, Brown and Hoffman packing the pigskin, any- , tiling can happen. For the Pelicans, Bevans will probably start a scrappy, but small bunch of backs with plenty of drive, as Chuck Guptill will get the quarterbacking Job, and Ger. aid Del Pattl will handle the full back position. Both of these backs which are lettermen, and another letterman a.id a transfer will get me starling i:oas In, the Pel back field positions. Dave Pepple and Jack Sunitsch will operate from the halfback slols. with reservo strength being supplied from such grldders as Larry Dearlng, Jim Borden and Larry Yarncll, who can work at eilher halfback or quarter. Dear Inc and Yarncll are lettermen. To bnck up Guptill and Del Fattl. Bevans has Donn Taucher and Butch Kimpston at quarter and hard running Dave Leellng. a 150 pound junior In the fullback posi tion. In the line the Pels will prob ably start Guy Munsell and Elvis Mitchell, both lettermen, at the end positions, Jim McGee and Marlin Causey at Uie tackles and Modesto "Mighty Mo" Jlmlnez at one guard spot, with Scott Han cock at the other. In the middle of the balanced lino will be Den ny "Little Moose" Todd, with Wayne Rodgers supplying reserve strength to the pivot spot, Besides- the probable starters, Earl Tlchenor, a big 200 pound junior end will undoubtedly see action as will Dick Clark, Hoy ' nosltlons. while letterman Erwln Mullen win be used a great deal on defense, with other tackle help being expected from Vince Reese, Bob Harshbarger and Larry Ma thews. Returning letterman Larry Heaton will also see action at the end positions as will Bill Badorek and Leon Brown. People Do Read SPOT ADS -you are!
