Hardtop racing closes shop this
Sunday afternoon at Klamath
Speedway and Hack officials -are
looking Jof one of the wildest and
hardest driying exhibitions staged
here this yfar.
Time trials are scheduled for
1:30 with the first race of a nine
event program getting underway
one hrur later. Ticket prices are
$1 for adults and 50 cents for
students.
Klamath Racing Association
President Benny Morrison said to
day, "we are looking for one of the
best race programs of the season
to unfold for Klamath Basin auto
racing followers this weekend."
The nip and tuck battle between
' Allen Bousmcn and Bob Crawley
for the high point honors is boiling
' down to a last day decision, and
secondly, this will be the last time,
this year the drivers will have to
show what their ruffians of the
1 speedways 'can do, so all will
probably have their throttles wide
open.
Bousman and Crawley have been
pulling and pushing the last sev
eral weeks in one of the tightest
Uclans.
Terps In

By the Associated press
The bristling Bruins of UCLA,
rated the nation's top college foot
ball team, lead the way this week
end as West Const gridders roar
into a full scheduiu of games
spiced by five inteisentional duels.
The national spotlight will be on
tCollepe Park, Md., where the
Uclans battle fifth-ranked Mary
land, but Midwcsterners will get a
look at three teams from this side
of the Rockies and Coast fans will

besr.lte pessimism at Los Ang
eles as UCLA left for the East,
the feeling from coast to coast was
that the Bruins would extend their
winning streak at the expense . of
the 'Terrapins ' nr.ti cement their
hold on the "No. 1 national rank
ing. Coach Red SaPde -s professed
concern about hi.i line's ability to
contain the Terps" split-T attack,
but observers contended ths Bru
ins' single wing wilth Ronnie Knox
at tailbadt would turn the tick.
PCC teams were definite under
dogs, though, ejainst their Big
Ten foes. Washington's Huskies,
hard put to edge Idaho week
ago, were figured out of their
class against a Minnesota team
believed ready to run a split-T
offense expertly. Pappy Wal
. dorf's Bears, making their home
debut after a disastrous opener at
Pittsburgh, looked too greon and
thin to bottle Illinois.
Woshington State, routed by USC
a week ano, figured to bounce
bank against a Kansas team which
has lost 18 straight games for a
dubious major college record.
There was no rebounding expect
ed, however, from COP, with the
Tigers likely to take a sound lac
ing from 'Purdue's Boilermakers.
Clear favorites were established
In the two conference games.
Southern .Cat tested its scoring
muscles and found them strong
a week afo, boding nothing good
for Oregon, while Stanford's ba
lanced running p.nd passing game
seemed certain to overpower Ore
gon State.
Both Idaho and Utah lost squeak

little better in defeat. San Jose,
showing its wares at home for the
lirst time, was expected to knock
over Hawaii despite the Island
ers' upset of Nebraska a week
ago.
point races witnessed here. Early
in the season Bousman ran away
with the lead, but lately has
found himself plagued with troub
les and hardluck. In the mean
time, Crawley has worked his way
to within one point cf Bousman's
lead atop the point ladder.
Before last Sunday's races Bous
man held a two point lead, but
Crawley gained one notch by win
ning the A-main. This week Bous
man "must" place in front of K-66
in every point counting event to
keep his hold on the lead. The two
counting races that could either
aisure Bousman the point triumph
or kick him into second place are
the A and B trophy dashes and
the A or B mains. The A-dash
and the main event will be another
"must" for both drivers.
Besides the two trophy events
and the A and B mains, there
will be three heat races, the final
heat, all of which arc slated for
10 exciting laps of hardtopping,
and the afternoon's special event.
Club officials said plans are being
laid for a team or relay race.
The lop five drivers in the point
race and their point standings are
as follows: Bousman 731, Crawley
730, Ray Brackman 694, Dale Han
kins, an honorary third place with
378, Glen Stevens 647 and George

his game together and went on to
take the next three, 7-5, 6-1, 6-2.

who did not play against the down

Goes For
101 Game
By Rl'SS GREEN
United Press Sports Writer
PHILADELPHIA (UP Big
Bucko Kilroy, the guy with the
cherub expression and the villainy
in nis play, goes for his 101st con
secutive game in the National
Football Leagues tomorrow ninht
when the Philadelphia Eagles and
the New York Giants open the sea
son at Connie Mack Stadium.
Big Bucko, the oldest player in
the league at 34. and currently
the oldest in point of service,
starts his 13th season in the pro
wars within striking distance of
the league record of 117 straight
games set by Paul Lipscomb, one
time Chicago Bear, Washington
Redskin and Green Bay Packer.
The 250-pound Eagles lineman
hasn't missed a game since Nov.
10. 1946, when an ankle injury
sidelined him in a game at New
York. Counting pre-season games,
championship playoffs, two all
star games and three post-season
games. Kilroy played 149 straight,
and 199 out of a possible 200.
THE VILLAIN
Bucko's longevity record ,1s dou
bly remarkable tn view of his rep
utation over the years. He's
cheered as a hero at home, and
thoroughly hated on the. road where
he usually Is regarded as the vil
llan in the piece,
Kilroy himself won't deny that,
on occasion, he has done a little
of this and a little of that. His
philosophy on the field Is to antic
ipate what the other fellow Is go
ing to do and do It first
But fellow Eagles claim that he's
all too often blamed for incidents
where he's just about blameless.
Let anything happen on the field
and it s Kilroy s fault, even if he's
25 yards away.
Coach Jim Trimble also comes
to the big fellow's defense in the
matter of rough play.
"I don't, believe he's responsible
for half of what they blame on
him," Trimble said. "Prom a per
sonal standpoint, I'd say he's one
of the most coacUable players I've
ever handled." ' . , t
STILL FAST
The years have dealt well with
Kilroy. At 34, he's' still the second
fastest lineman on the Eagles
squad, with only Lum Suyder out
sprinting him. And, the best years
he had in the league since he
joined the team in 1943 Were the
past four seasons when he anch
ored the Eagles' "suicide seven"
defensive Hne. He starts the new
season as an offensive -guard.
Oddly, he asked for a tryout with
the Eagles when no one drafted
him in 1943 after he played with
Temple. His "Peck's Bad Boy"
reputation was part of his make
up then.
The Lipscomb record Is within
Kilroy's grasp, but he doesn't in
tend to stop there. The big fellow
contends that all things being
equal, he'll be around for a cou
ple more seasons. 1
Only then, he says, will It be
time to chalk up "Kilroy was
here."
Yankee Manager Casey Stengel
admits.
"We should have tint olri pen;
nant in tne ba this aiternoou or
tomgtit. sain Stengel as he named
righthander Don Larsen to makd
the afternoon try and southpaw
Tommy Bynie to follow at night.
Meanwhile, the Yankee ciunnouse
man put the ch.moitne on Ice,
nil set for the big celebration.
DKOrl'ED Oil .
The disappointed Red Sou, who
dropped right cut of the pennant
race by losing 12 of their -last H
sanies, are anxicus not to be humi
liated In the bargain. To keep the
corks in the Yankee champagne
bottles just a little longer, they
named pitchers Tom Brewer and 1
Wiliard Nixon for today's games. '
The 19o5 pennant would be the !
sixth for the Yankees In the lust
seven years, an awesome record
of league domination, and their
21st hi baseball's modern era.
It also would be the sixth 41ag
far fuancer blende. And clinch
in?; in Boston would give gnarled
ola Casey an extra kick, because
he operated in 'in "Hub City" for
several tad seasons as manager
of l'la downtrodden tiosion Biaves.
Out in Detroit, the Indians could
only do Uieir best against the Ti
gers and, at the same time, keep
an eye on' the scoreboard to sec
how the Yankees are doing In Bos
ton. All Cleveland hope la at the
vanishing point, but Manager Al
Lopes won't yell "uncle" until the
last mathematical chance Is gone.
KKKP TRYING
"We'll still keep on trying be
cause anything could happen. 1 Lo
ire insisted stubbornly. "After all.
the Yankees could lose all their
fi"r Eomcs."
He didn't sound niu-'h lute h;.Tram
meant it. New York
The Yankees must lose all their ! Cleveland
remaining lour games and Uie In-!
ilmns must win M their remain
ing three for the two teams to fin- j
ish in a tie for the pemuini. In
that event, they would meet in a
single game playoff in Cleveland
on Monday. i
Here's how they stood going into

Fight, Wait,
Hope, Slogan
Of Cleveland
DETROIT ifl Manaacr Al Lopes
says his Cleveland Indians still can
light, wait and hope.
But the long odds are that this
will be lhe Indians' last day as
American League cnampions.
Luck would have to come their
way three limes in less than 12
hours for the . Tribe to keep alive
their pennant aspirations. For the
past . week the Cleveland 1 club
hasn't had as much as a nodding
acquaintance with luck.
A Yankee victory in either of its
games against the Bostun Red Sox
ends the pennant chase. So would
an Indian defeat.
"We'll play the games one at a
time." Lopez said.. "Anything can
happen. We lost four straight. May
be the Yankees will."
But he couldn't bring any real
conviction into his voice.
He has seen the Indians lose five
out of six games since last Sept.
14, three of them to Uie Tigers.
And the Yankees have won eight
straight to move from a 'game be
hind to 3', ahead.
Herb Score, rookie strikeout art
ist with a tendency to wildness,
drew the starting assignment for
today's game. He hasn't worked
in either of the Indians' last two
scries. Frank Lary, another rookie,
was his mound opponent.
