Oklahoma continued to ride out the storm of upsets and hoi ddown its perch as the No. 1 college foot ball team in the country today. The mighty Booners, who tram pled Kansas 65-0 last week, polled 1.891 points in The Associated Press' weekly poll of sports writers and sportscasters. They captured 115 . first-place votes of the 212 cast. 1,000 VOTES The next three teams Wiscon sin, UCLA and Ohio State also stayed in the same positions as a week ago. They all polled more than 1,000 votes on the basis of 10 for first, 9 for second and so on down the line. Wisconsin had 42 firsts and 1.132 points; UCLA. 23 first and 1,590 points; and Ohio State, 8 firsts, cood for 1.381 points. Wisconsin and Ohio State collide at Colum bus this week. The rest of the top 10, was well scrambled from a week ago. There are four new members Arkansas, Minnesota, Army and West Virginia. All recorded upset victories, and now are Not. 1, 8, 9 and 10, respectively. . DROPPED Purdue. Duke. Benn State and Navy all dropped out of the top 10 on the basis of defeats. Duke took the longest slide, from No. 6 to No. 19, as a result of its 2a-i loss to 4raiy. Conversely, the Ca dets gained the most ground, going lrrfm No. 18 to No. 9. Notre Dame, still striving for national honors, jumped from eighth to sixth after whipping Michigan State 20-19, and Miss issippi advanced from seventh to fifth as a result of its 34-1 victory over Tulane.

Chicago Race Tracks Make House Cleaning "CHICAGO Ifl A campaign by two major Chicago race tracks to rid themselves of hoodlums who make book on the premises has netted a blacklist of more than 30 men now barred from the race tracks. The Chicago Tribune said in a story Tuesday the individuals have been barred from Arlington and Washington Park t r acks where they were reported to have been doing a business at the rate of $100,000 a day." The two tracks have summer meetings of about a month's duration. EX-CONVICT Some of the men, the newspa- Football Notes NEW YORK lD With the football season turning into the second and most important half for the ambitious clubs, a con ference title, a trip to a bowl and national ranking can be lost by a missed signal, an offside, a turned ankle or a bad bounce in the open. It is therefore refreshing as well as entertaining .to read what George Mason, Alabama tackle, engineering student and young father, has to say: "Nothing wor Ties me and when It does I don't think about It." A philosopher of the same mould is West Virginia corffch Art (Pap py) Lewis. His Mountaineers are unbeaten and he was asked if he thought the club could make it through the season without a de feat . "Honest." he said, "I'm not worried about anything right now except VMI for next Saturday and the grocery bill." Notre Dame coach Terry Bren nan may not have realized It but he hung a big funeral wreath about the neck of two-platoon foot ball when he explained why six of his regular muscle-guys played CO minutes against Michigan State in Saturday's 20-19 victory. Said Ttrry: "We had to go with men who had the most experience and once, we were functioning as a unit I didn't want to change." Not specialists, just rugged blocker and runrr"'; won for Notre Dame. Seventeen men did all the work. Georgia Tech coach Bobby Dodd explains the many football upsets this season, saying: "Constance exchange of game motion pictures makes scouting thorough and cuts down tremendously on the surprise element." This figures because Stanford's Chuck Taylor explained his 0-12 defeat to UCLA with the remark. "They did what we expected them to do but they did it better and more often." Pro Ball Becomes Pass Crazy CHICAGO W Professional foot ball teams have become pass crazy in the last decade, but there is nothing like a balanced attack, says George Hulas, owner-coach of the Chicago Bears. Halas sholud know. He saw his Bears shackle San' Francisco for 30 minutes Sunday only to fold un der the 49ers' devastating ground game. Are the pros returning to run ning? "They never left it," said Halas in an interview. "Any team that has a good ground game will util ize it and San Francisco has a great running game." GOOD PASSING "But remember, they've got some pretty good passing. We had thorn bottled up Sunday but they've got balance and it paid off." The Bears stymied San Fran cisco's passing attack in the first half and walked off the field with a 11-14 lead. The 49ers. although outplayed, had scored once on an Intercepted pass and again when Hugh McElhenny broke loose for a long touchdown run. Other Ulan those two plays, it was strictly Chicagos game. Y. A. Tittle's passes weren't clicking and it looked like a bad afternoon for the Californlans. Then San Francisco, with rookie Mauris Duncan leading, pounded the left side of the Bear line mer cilessly and scored a quick 17 points in the third quarter to Ice the contest. The 49ers won 31-24. And they did it by running. McElhenny, John Henry Johnson and Jet Joe Perry left the seers who cry "You can't run in pro football" with their jaws hanging. WITNESSED Not since the days of George Mc Afee. Hugh Gallamau and Norm Standlee had Bear fans witnessed such running power. Before the nightmarish quarter had even ended. Bear rooters want ed to know why their team wasn't running. Aside from the fact that he has no McElhennys, Johnsons or Per rys. Halas said, "We've got a good passing team and we've done well with passing." The Bears have two victories In four games and unquestionably will improve last years record of three triumphs in 11 games. per said, are ex-convicts believed connected with the city's' gambling operations. The individuals were ba r r e d permanently after track police said they were seen soliciting and accepting bets on races, the Tri bune said. The practice of making book at race tracks deprives the federal government, the state and track owneis of thousands of dol lars in revenue. Among the barred men were several previously arrested on charges in Chicago. These include Joseph (Crackers) Mendino, 45; Frank Cerone, 36: Rocco Colucio, 58; John McDonald: Charles Eng lish, and his brother, Sam. OUT-OF-STATE Several out-of-state Individuals also were among those listed as barred by the newspaper. The Illinois State Racing Board last week said it had found "some indication of gangster .presence" in horse racing In the state. Board chairman Paul,Seidar said his agency had been investigating the situation and reports that mob sters owned thoroughbred horses, own stock in tracks and raced horses under the names of "stooges."

He attends every home game of the Irish for which he can get tickets and always carries a port able radio. Zenk is blind. "All my life I've followed Notre Dame football, ne saia. ' I piayea guard on Uie Marengo High School team and dreamed of going to Notre Dame. A month after 1 was graduated in 1043 I was drafted. In April of 1945. a Jap grenade exploded in front of me. That was outside Manila. I haven't been able to see since then. Since 1946 I've attended every Noire Dame game I can. The hardest thing about it all Is getting tickets. "It's difficult to explain what a big kick I get out of the games although I am blind. Sure, I could listen to the radio at home. But there's nothing like taking my portable along and sitting in the stands with the crowd, and listen ing to all those cheers. That color is something you can t get in the living room of your home with a radio. Zenk married In 1946 and the couple has two boys, eddie 7, and Billy, 5. Zenk s wife attends all games with him. She knows a lot about football, but when we go 'to Notre Dame I prefer to listen -to the report on the radio rather than have her tell me what's going on. But at Marengo High School games, she's right there beside me giving me a play-by-play.'' Zenk worked in a factory after his marriage, then operated bowling alley. At present he owns tobacco shop.
