Coach John McClnnis and SOCE loaches had agreed upon the game md the local school board had lanctioned the tilt, but due to reg stations in the Oregon School AC' dvlties Association by-laws and constitution, the game was forced :o be canceled. Joe Peak, athletic lirector of the local high school listed. ' McGinnis had planned on using bis "next year's team'' in a pre view of what is to come In the 50CE Jnycee contest, but because 5! the difference in the age of the two teams the holiday game was ruled out.

KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE THIRTEKM ( . TV , cCS ' :" jf p! mJ;uM ihsj.n.m f frir in nn 111 1 hti Larson Pushing Webfoot Bv THE ASSOCIATED PRESS California's Paul Larson, lead' ing passer in the nation, Is nosing up to Oregon's- George Shaw in their neck and neck race for total offense supremacy among major college football players. Shaw was bottled up last week by rampaging UCLA while Larson had a fine though brief afternoon leading the Bears to a 27-6 win ever Washington. With eacb man having two games to go. Shaw has a total of 1,274 yards to Lar son's 1.246. UNDISPUTED In passing alone, Larson ' is' un disputed national master. With 104 completions a 65.4 per cent aver agefor 1,259 yards in eight games, the California tosser is shooting for a record. He'll set a new mark for accuracy if he can keep his present percentage. The record for 150 attempts is 60.9 per cent, set in 1950 by Wash ington's Don Heimich. Larson has already topped the 100 attempt record 63.1 per cent set by Okla homa's Hugh McCullough in 1938. With Larson's sprained ankle well healed, Cal Coach Lynn Wal dorf reports the Bears in good shape for Saturday's battle with Oregon State at Berkeley. Back lielders Johnny Wilson and Tom Kramer and tackle Ken Schwocho should all be ready for action, leaving back Herb Jackson and end Jim Kidder as the only doubt fills. -POTENTIALLY Waldorf told his charges the young OSO team is potentially far better than it has shown. He put the Bears through a tough work out on running plays and blocking drill. Southern California and Wash ington, who meet in Los Angeles, were also having injury problems. USC fullback Jim Decker and re placements Wayne Kurlak and Joe Tisdale are all sidelined, causing Coach Jess. Hill to install Roger Hooks, third-string quarterback, at the ItillDack post. Stanford Coach Chuck Taylor an nounced that quarterback John Brodie, who played less than a quarter against USC last week will start against Independent San Jose Stale. Brodie is the nation's Ko. 4 passer. THE KINARDS . . . Mississippi's junior halfback Billy Kinard has a word with his brother, Bruiser, now coaching the Miss issippi line. An all-time Ail-American, the elder Kinard went, on to be one of the best tackles in the National Pro Foot ball League. ' Hoople Goes Wild In Picking Grid Games Bv MAJOR AMOS' B.

Poona II (S3.20) scored his first victory in I the feature at Golden Gate Fields. I A For Educational Plans It's the EQUITABLE And JOHN HOUSTON Unknowns Spark '54 Season By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Football players like Army right halfback Tommy Bell, who didn't figure to gain many headlines this fall, are having a lot to say about the outcome of the 1954 college iooi ball season. Bell's case Is typical. Last year Tom was a workhorse runner with drive and spirit. But he's a differ ent boy now with new-found speed and an ability to follow blockers. CONQUEST ' . It was Bell who started once-beat en Army to lis 48-7 oonquesi oi previously undefeat Yale last ween with a 64-yard scoring sprint on the Cadets' first play Horn scrim- mane. He wound up wun inree TDs. In the Duke game, the Blue Dev ils were Dounding at the Army KOal trailing 21-4 when Bell raced 80 yards before he was caught on the Duke 13. And Bell knookea down a pass in his end zone bs the final gun sounded-to save Army's 21-20 squeeker over Virginia. ' Little Pruno Villaneuva, tailback rinsmaster of tile nation s No. team at UCLA, was lost behind All-America Paul Cameron m '53 Now they soy he's ft faster runner and better passer than Paul. SINGLE WING Minnesota's having a better sea son with Bob McNamara firing the Gophers' new split-T than under the single wing magic of All-Amcr- icdn Paul Oiel. McNamara. an end and safetyman in platoon days, has been lmpresive all year at right half and tailback. Howurd (Hopalong) Cassldy and Bobby Walklns help make Ohio State's backfield one of the most formidable in the country but quar terback Dave Leggett gets a major share of the credit. Leggett, moved from fullback to Johnny Borton' understudy last year, has the Job now and is an important cog in the Buckeye machine with his passing, running and defense. Arkansas' undefeated Razorbacks ore the surprise team of the na Hon, thanks especially to guar Bud Brooks and fullback Henry Moore. Brooks, scarcely mentioned In pre-season hoopla, Is getting more praise now than Baylor's touted tackle James Ray Smith and the Texas tackles, Herb Gray and Buck Lansford. Brooks, in fact is The Associated Press' 'latest lineman of the week after his per formance against Rice. CROWDED Injured Larry Morris, 1953 All Tech, is getting crowded out of the sports pages these days by team mate Franklin Brooks, a junior guard. i Sonnomore Jon Arnett and senior Ararnis Dandoy, the Southern Cali fornia tailbacks, now must share the credit with Llndon Crow, a line - wingback, and quarterback Jimmy Contrntlo. Bob Cox has taken over the pass ing chores at the University- of Washington for Injured Sandy Le derman and ranks among the most effective In that department. Among the others are Boston University fullback Sam Pino and Colgate's sophomore Quarterback, Guy Martin, who is good enough to share the job with Dick Lalla.

Thomas lett tno ring wiinoui am, but collapsed later in his dressing room. , " land had struggled back to at least notice among the country's best football teams today and Coach Jim Tatum attributes Its return to three reasons, sophomores being two of them. Improved tackles, development of sophomore quarterback Frank Tainburello and a familiar defense account for the late-season climb. Voters In the Associated Press poll returned Maryland to 17th place this week after virtually Ig noring it since Oct. t. That was the day It was tied by Wake Forest 13-13 on the heels of being beaten 12-7 by UCLA. TROUNCED Since then Maryland trounced North Carolina 33-0, South Caro lina 20-0 and North Carolina State for the first time last week and along with UCLA In the top 10 until then. Besides hauling back Into sight of the top 10, Maryland's hopes of going back to the Orange Bowl perked up after being virtually dead. It now has won three and tied one In Its Atlantic Coast Con ference, which furnishes one Mi ami representative, and can add a fourth victory by beating Clem son Saturday. The development at tackles of sophomores Al Wharton of Sewick- ley. Fa., and Mike Sandusky, Bound Brook, N.J.. and at quarter back of Frank Tamburello of BaU limore are credited by Tatum wlta two parts of Maryland'! late suc cess. ; LF.TTERMAN Tackle had been tabbed by Ta tum from the start as one of the biggest gaps in last year't elected national champions. Wharton and Sandusky after the first four games shunted Ralph Baierl, senior letter- man, back to the third team. Ta tum rates Wharton the best de fensive tackle on the squad now. Besides helping himself, Tam burello has helped Charley Boxold senior quarterback, get hold of himself, according to Tatum. me outer reason ror me slow season's start, says Tatum, was the big distractihon caused by getting ready for UCLA's single wing so early in the season."
