Modoc Field patrons didn't see the same band ot fighting Peli cans that battled Grants pass to a disputed 33-31 loss last week, possibly because their feathers hn been plucked in last Monday s provi ui uie osaa. Ashland on the other hand, displayed some spirited football and with a second balf rally came close to upsetting the Pelican applecart.

A victory over Pitt the only team to beat West Virginia, last year would leave Just one major hurdle In the path of the seventh ranked Mountaineers: A clash with potentially dangerous Syracuse the following Saturday. George Washington was the final Southern Conference opponent on West Virginia's schedule. The Mountaineers didn't add a lot ol stature In the game. But when it counted. West Virginia showed it had the stuff, driving 98 yards for a fourth period touch down that won the game. A crowd of 22,500 the largest in u.w. nisiory -was on hand for the team's only home game of tho season, played at Griffith Btaaium. - Perhaps the game's outstanding piayer was alii weaver, a 178 pound George Washington half back from Altoona, Pa. He made key defensive saves, kicked G.W.'s extra point and made the block that allowed teammate Mike Som lner to go 89 yards on an off tackle shot for a first period touch down. Bob Sturm, G.W.'s quarterback, threw three straight pass comple tions for 70 yards in the fourth quarter, putting G.W. on the West Virginia IS with a minute to go. But linebacker Tom Domcn inter cepted a pass and that was the game. . West Virginia's Freddie Wyani also was outstanding, particularly as a ball carrier on Uie spllt-T option piay. ne Mountaineer touchdowns were scored by Bobby Moss on a 43-yard run and by i-ariy jiruiKo on a z-yara Duck, witn a startling 83 yaro uallop through the right side of the Ash land line and Into paydiit to push ine reis in Iron, 12-0.

INTERCEPTED Young Rites Slated Monday By HASKELL SHORT United Press Sports Writer PEOLI. Ohio (UP) Denton (Cy) Young, regarded by many as the greatest baseball pitcher who ever lived, wili be buried beside his wife Monday in a little church cemetery he was able to see from his nearby farmhouse window. Masonic services for Young, who died here at the age of 88 Friday, will be held at 7 p.m. EST Sunday while the Elks will also hold serv ices for the baseball Hall of Famer one hour later. Regular funeral services are scheduled for Monday 'afternoon In Newcomerstown, Ohio, and later at the Peoli Metho dist Church. Young, who won 511 games and lost 315 while appearing in 006 ma jor league games irom 1890 through 1911, died suddenly Friday while sitting in his favorite rock ing chair. Death was attributed to a neart attack. Bom in nearby Ollmore, Ohio. Young, whose nickname was a con- traction of "Cyclone," spent most of his major league career with the Cleveland Nationals. He pltch- fd for the St. Louis Cardinals In 1899 and 1900. then with the Boston Red Sox until 1908. He relumed to Cleveland in 1909 and was traded to the Boston Braves during 1911, quitting at the end of '.hat season to retire to his farm here. cy s long-time friends from local communities will serve is regular pallbearers while several baseball personalities are among the hon orary pallbearers. Ex - Yankee pitcher Sad Sam Jones, former Pittsburgn outfielder Fred Clarke JO Unman and big Ed Walsh, one-time pitch er of the Cubs, will all be honorary pallbearers. Connie Mack also It among the honorary pillbearers out ne probably will not be present due to Illness. j . Ashland's first touchdown came with the help of a 15 van! nersonni foul against Klamath, deep in the Pelicans' territory. Kimpton inter cepted a Lance Locke - pass on the Klamath 12 to stop the Griz zlies' downfield march, but in rule infraction gave the ball back wi Asniana on the Pel six yard stripe. On the first Dlav. Johnson scooted like a greased pig into the Klamath end zone for the first Grizzly tally of the night. Then me utile Ashland seatback stepped " "' vxa uie extra point. Following the Insuelnir iricirnff Klamath marched 72 yards in 15 piays ior a touchdown, with Dick jougneny, a Junior fullback, cap ping ine march on a one yard thrust through the left side of his own line. By this time, coach Mc Ginnis had Just about cleared his oer.cn oi reserves. The tall-end of the 72-yard movement was car ried by juniors Tommy "T Mooel" Ferrell, Joe Linman and Dough erty. Kimpton and Taucher took turns at piloting the Klamath of fense at the point. Following Dougherty's scoring plav, sopho more Richard Humphrey kicked the extra point to give Klamath a 25-7 lead with only 56 seconds re maining in the third quarter ac tion. ... CAME BACK . .. Ashland came back strong In the closing period of Uie con ference tilt by scoring twice, and on both occasions, Johnson had a hand in the TD production. With three minutes and 45 seconds re maining m tho game, Johnson scurried to his left for 32 yards on the end of a reverse play and into me ivianiain end zone. The extra point was also kicked by Johnson. With the 1:46 remaining on the clock, Ashland took the ball and moved for the final scoring action of the evening. In four plays, fol lowing jonnson's 33 yard return of Kimpton's punt to the Pelican J7. the ball rested on the Klam ath 20 yard line. Johnson fariert back on an optional pass-run play aim xireu a penect strike to team mate Phil Sword in pay dirt for Ashland'R 20th point. Johnson then placed the pigskin through the up rights for his third straight con version oi uie nignt and the score stood 25-21. An interesting sidenote of the final Klamath game of the season Is found in the scoring column. All. 25 of the Klamath points were accounted for by sophomore and junior talent, which could point to "next year," but the loss of the 13 seniors, including such standouts as Taucher, Modesto "Mlehtv Mo" Jimenez, Bob Harshbarger, Bill uaoorek ana uie other five line men and three backs who saw their final prep grid action, will be a big Job for McGinnls to fill come next football season. As one Interested Pelican follow er said following Friday night's game, "this might not have been the wlnnlngest season enjoyed by a Klamath tarn, but McGinnis' boys gave us plenty of excitment, and for the first time In several sea sons the 'old Klamath spirit' has returned." WWW W &xwrii VICTORY RANG THROUGH THE KLAMATH UNION football picture Friday night as the Pelicans closed their season by whipping Ashland 25-21. Action taken in by tho lens of Herald and News photographer Don Kettler included Butch KimptoVs 33-yard run in the closing seconds of the first quarter. But the run went to no avail when the Pels were charged with holding. At the right, Klamath rooters whoop it up during the evening's action, unaware of the cameraman's presence. Shown cheer ing their team on are (back, left to right) Peggy Brown and Sue Thompson,' and (front) Frances Cox. Their boosting may have been needed as the Pels were pushed hard by a spirited Ashland squad.

H 8 202 II 1RI Bruins Bruise COP 34-0 STOCKTON, Calif. Ml The bruising UCLA Bruins uncorked a triple tailback punch Saturday to level the College of the Pacific 34-0 in a non-conference football game. Sam Brown and Ronnie Knox engineered the UCLA scoring par ade which rolled up a 20-0 half time lead. Then young Gerry Mc Dougal appeared on the scene to take over the scoring chores. Brown ripped off his touchdown on a two-yard plunge. Knox got one on a short burst off tackle and passed 10 yards to Johnny Hermann for another and McDougal slashed 11 yards around end for UCLA's fourth. A blocked punt by Jim Matheny recovered by Bruce Ballard in the end zone added up to five TD tallies for the Bruins. The Bruins spread the conversion business around, too. Brown kicked a pair and Jim Decker and Doug Bradley had one each. . Hermann got a chance after scoring his touchdown, but was wide. UCLA, fifth ranked nationally, nanaied the Tigers with surprising ease although the Bruins went into the game top-heavy favorites. A western regional television audi ence watched the onesided contest, in addition to 27,000 In Memorial Stadium. The Tiger line, which Coach Jack Meyers had said he wouldn't trade for any In the country, was rippea wiae open by tho Bruin for. wards. Offensively, COP made only one mild threat, which was stopped by a fumble on the UCLA 30 in the first period. The victory made UCLA the highest scoring college team in the nation with 249 points In eight games. The shutout left the Bruins with only 33 points scored against mem, tne best dclensive record In the nation.
