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.
THE NEW YORK Giants are in
the 1954 Wofld Series, which will
beqin one week from tomorrow
(Wednesday), and for the National
league champions, It will be their
38th try for the world's champion

Their last appearance was made

twice.
Two great ballplayers helped
T.eo Durocher lead the Giants to
the National League title as Willie
Maya the tremendous center field
rr for the Giants and the Milwau

Last week, the Owls met and
lost a S5-7 decision to the Boise

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

good record this season on the

Klamath Union High School's
Pelican footballers and the Oregon

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

Tay Brown is in his eleventh year
as neaa coacn at compton.
In the Tartars' backfleld will
prooaDiy be two lettermcn from

promising freshman prospects as
the probable starting spots will be
given to Bunny Aldrlch at ouarter.
Jim Behrcndt and Roger Daniels

pound fullback will complete the
Compton backfleld.
Only one letterman. 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.
For the Pels, they will be up
against another team that boasts a
small but lightning fast backfleld
as Steve Stevens head coach of the
Wolves selects his starting combination.

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. New-

combe never did get started. 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."
