SEPTEMBER 21, 1954 tromm by timOH HMNOH Pel Field General IF THE UNIVERSITY of Ore gon is as strong as their showing against the lowly Idaho Vandals the remainder ol the season may be the Northern Division ol the Pacific Coast Conference will hnve an entry in the Rose Bowl, New Year's Day 1955. Oregon ran over the Vandals af ter a slow start in the first hall by a 41-0 (.core, while the other two ND schools that saw action broke even, one of them, Washing ton, edged by Utah 1-6 while Wash ington State lost by a 39-0 score to the USC powerhouse. The Ducks from Eugene win have to be taken a little bit more Ferious than they were last year, but the southern schools of the con ference are far from being a a pushover. UCLA, last year's coast titalist, could very well repeat despite the loss of All - American Paul Cam eron, while the Trojans of South ern California and the University of California have mighty powerful ball clubs this season. It all shapes up to be one of the best races for the Roje Bowl payoff for some time.

This can be more plainly Illustrated by taking a close look at the Oregon Tech 19M grid program. Last week, the Owls met and lost a S5-7 decision to the Boise Junior College Braves at Boise Jn the past si or seven seasons of play the Braves have compiled fairly Rood record of 65 wins out nf 10 contests. What happened to - the others . i , four were defeats while they managed a measly tic from the final encounter. Not that this Is enough for few weeks, hut Compton J.C. Is next on the Owls slate of opponents s the Mile High- Campus crew packs their bftgs and heads south to meet the powerful Junior col . lego eleven, Since the end of World War II the Tartars have won 80 gnmes. while losing 12 and tying five. In doing so they have won seven con ference championships and live national Junior college titles. To lop the sharp record, they are planning on taking on the Univer sity of Oregon of the Pacific Coast Conference In 1955. Their other eight games of a 10 game schedule are v.lth some of the strongest teams In the states of Washington and Oregon as far as small college football streneth Is concerned. Such teams as OCE. EOCE, SOCE and Portland State from our own state and outside teams like Lower Columbia, Olym pic, west Contra Costa and Las sen J.C. should all compile fairly good record this season on the gridiron. nniKFs I'iiom iitre and THERE . . . both the Pels and the Owls will be out of town this week end for rond games . . .

Redding, Compton Next Foes Klamath Union High School's Pelican footballers and the Oregon Tech grlddcrs hit the road this weekend for encounters with teams from California Friday and Saturday night's respectively. The Pels meet the Redding High Wolves this Friday evening at Red ding, in what should be another tough test for the even - up Pell cans, who have lost one and won one so far this season. For the Owls, it Is another rough and tough competitor as they tan gle with the Compton Junior Col lege Tartars at Compton, a school that has produced one of the out standing teams In the country for the past nine or 10 years. An ex-All-American for USC will be at the helm of the Common Tartars when the Owl grid ma chine meet the always strong squan irom soutnern California, as Tay Brown is in his eleventh year as neaa coacn at compton. In the Tartars' backfleld will prooaDiy be two lettermcn from last year's club and two very promising freshman prospects as the probable starting spots will be given to Bunny Aldrlch at ouarter.

Dick Orr a 6 foot 3 Inch end will be on the starting forward wall when the Owls meet the Compton squad, while Brown Is expected to start six outstanding freshman includ ing 275 pounder Jean De Oroff and a pair of other 200 pounders.

Ed Taylor, who will weigh some where around the 135 pound mark. I Oklahoma Takes Lead In College Grid Poll By ED CORRIGAN NEW YORK.

BROOKLYN W1 It was all over, even the shouting. The victorious Giants, a Jubilant gang of merrymakers, had long since departed after celebrating their pennant victory in true style, complete with champagne and more sober refreshments. There was not much life in the Brooklyn clubhouse either, al though a group of Dodgers were still silting around, trying to put the pieces together. It was so quiet you could hear the pennant drop. Walter Alston, the freshman manager, sat silently in a chair, dejected and still bewildered. A fellow said he had been sitting there for nearly an .hour. As if suddenly aware that he was expected to say something, Alston looked around and began to talk. "It wasn't Just one thing," he murmured. "It was a combination of things. It wasn't Campanella alone. We might have won despite Roy's bad hand. But Furillo didn't start to hit until mid-season.

Er skine failed to take up the slack. Oh, so many things. We just didn't play good ball." In another corner. Pee Wee Reese, the team captain, sat quiet ly, smoking a cigarette. He was still in bis baseball uniform. "They're a fine ball club," he said in his usual generous way. "They deserved to win. We gave it all we had but It wasn't enough." Carl Furillo, Gil Hodges and one or two others of the ex-champions echoed Reese's sentiments but one who refused to console himself was Roy Campanella. "Nobody hurt the team more than I did," he growled. "Imagine hitting .200. I should have done better even with one hand." Earlier, President Walter J. O'Malley had gathered the players together and told them "this has been a rugged season." "I feel sorry for you and sorry for the fans," he said, "particu larly because it was the Giants who beat us, and sorry for Alston. I don't feel the team did as well as it should have done but let's wrap it up and get ready for next year. Go home and have a good winter." O'Malley, accompanied by Als ton, had been among the first to i congratulate Leo Durocher and his Giants. ' "You got a good manager," Du rocher had told O'Malley; "It was not his fault that Campanella got hurt and his. pitching went sour. He did a fine job under the cir cumstances' Concerning his own club, Leo said he never felt at ease about it until the pennant was clinched. "Not when you have to beat a club like Brooklyn," he said. "But my guys were great, all of them. I first began to get real enthusi astic about our pennant chances when they bounced back after los- tag three straight to the Dodgers and had their lead cut to a half game. They went right out and won six straight after that. They convinced me they were a. real good team. They came close to us several times after that but" my guys only played harder. They played best when they had their backs against the wall." RIFLE MOUNTS SCOPES SIGHTS THE GUN STORE RACING NEW YORK Sweet Olrl ($25.90) won the Miss Woodford Purse at Aqueduct. ATLANTIC CITY, N.J.
