In Monday night's games, Se

Mary's Gaels and Missouri ditto
with Idaho.
The Chieftains-Gaels' game was
i close In the first half, when the

period and pulled easily away. Se

: ing with 20 points. Tne Chieftains

forward, and Danny Rogers, guard,
began netting buckets from long
lange and Southern California

mouth with 13 seconds to go but
were held there.

Its
clink glasses to the No'th, suh.
Northern basketball players, that
is! -
"We at North Carolina, are
known as the 'Flatbush Tar
heels.' " McOulre grins as he con
templates the influx of Northern
players to Southern colleges.
"Duke is known as the 'Pennsyl
vania Tarheels,' and North Caro
lina stata as the 'All-American
Tarheels.' "
The reason, if you run down their
rosters, Is fairly obvious. North
Carolina Is represented on the
court by six New York City boys
and a total of nine players from
the New York area.
"We're going to expand next
year and take In Staten Island,
too," McOuire laughs.
FINE PLAYERS
Duke, the "Pennsylvania Tar
heels," has five fine players from
the Keystone State as well as two
from New Jersey and one fiom
New York. North Carolina State
has four players from New Jersey,
three each from Indiana and Penn
sylvania and one each from Ohio,
Colorado and New York. State, In
dentally, doesn't have a single
Carolinian on Its squad.
These carpet bagging collegians
are paying off in spades, too.
North Carolina State currently is
ranked third In the nation by the
United Press Board of Coaches
while McGulre's team has moved
all the way to eighth place in the
nation.
It's the same story wherever you
go In the South. While the high
schools gradually are building to
a point where Southern boys In
the future will be able to give
Southern colleges more home
grown talent, most of those col
leges now are taking up the slack
with Northerners to make them
competitive.
RULED SOUTH
In the pre-war era, Kentucky
ruled the Southern and national
roost. North Carolina State
moved Into contention after the
war, mostly with Indiana - bred
talent. Now they're all in the play
er market while waiting for South
ern high school basketball to catch
fire and provide the polished play
ers of the future.
Clemson has three New Jersey
boys; Maryland three from New
Jersey, two from Pennsylvania and
one from New York; Furman two
Pennsylvanians, and so on.
"When we played Alabama re
cently I asked Johnny Dee why
he was playing three New York
schools In a row," McGulre
quipped.
The schools were: St. John's of
New York, Holy Cross with eight
men from the N.Y. mst area
and North Carolina.
"The alumni has adopted our
guys," McGuire relates happily.
"And after all, Lennie Rosenbluth,
one of our best men, Is from
Greenville, Term."

'54 UCLA Club Tops,
But '55 Said Better
By ALEX KA1IX ,
United Press Sports Writer
LOS ANGELES (UP) UCLA'S
national championship fcotball
team of 1954 was the best in the
school's history but Coach Henry
"Red" Sanders today ' said this
year's Rose Bowl squad In some
respects is. even better.
"Call It will, faith, spirit this
team has:. a desire that is magnifi
cent." Sanders said. "Aside from
the one game we lost to Maryland,
our squad has been able to cope
with the odds when they were
against us."
Strader
Fired By
SF 49ers
SAN FRANCISCO 1 The San
Francisco 49ors were in the mar
ket for a new coach Tuesday after
firing one a year ago for failure
to win a National Football League
title and his successor Monday on
rounds of "incompatibility" after
a 4-8 season. - '
Coach Norman (Red) Strader,
hired on a three-year contract last
Dec. 23 to replace Lawrence
(Buck) Shaw, was "relieved of his
coaching duties. " effective immed
iately, oy owner Tony Morabito.
"There was a little dissension,
some resentment," Morabito said.
"In a nutshell, the players were
playing under Red and not for him.
It was a case of incompatability."
Morabito, admitting that "We
have some cry babies on the club."
said that "a lot of little tilings,
like ordering meals and setting a
bed time, kept building up.
"In the overall picture," he con
tinued, "I don't think you can treat
grown men like children. I'm not
aaying Red was wrong, maybe he
was right: it's a matter of opin
ion. But it's easier to replace one
man J,han 33, you'll have to admit."
Although Morabito passed off
questions on the 49ers' contract
witli Strader, the 50-year-old coach
said flatly thst he had a three-year
agreement.
"I was told that the 49ers will
respect that . c a n t r a e t." said
Strader.
Strader. who said he learned of
his dismissal only a few minutes
before announcement was made by
Morabito, Indicated he was hurt
by the incompatability charge.
"I've been coaching for 25 years
and one of my strong points always
has been to get the most out of
my players," he said.
Morabito said he hod nn one In
mind as Strader's successor but
hoped to make a choice by the
tuns ui me m-u arait Jan. 17. He

f And that's" the 'situation UCLA
probably -will face when it meets
favored Michigan- Slate in the
Rose Bowl. Too team will have
to rise to a greater peak than
ever: before If it hopes to " score
an upset
UCLA will be making Its fourth
appearance in ine Rose Bowl with
out having won the New Year's
classic once. The last lime the
Bruins went to nearby Pasadena
ior the post-season appearance was
two years ago.
Although UCLA shot into an ear
ly lead, the Spartans of Michigan
State overcame the lead in the
second half as they refused to let
themselves get beat. It was a
game the Spartans wanted to win
for Biggie Munn who was retiring
as heed coach.
FATE VICTIM
The West generally felt that
UCLA was a victim of fate last
year when the one appearance In
two years rule kept the strongest
team ever fielded by the Bruins
from going to the Rose Bowl.
The strength of the 1954 squad
was in its line which was at least
two deep at every position with
men of All-America or All-Coast
caliber. This year's line was main
ly tile second string of last year.
But the current squad isn't backed
up by a second line almost as good
as the starters.
Sanders, however, says his back
field this year is superior to last
year's although the personnel isn't
much different. The same players
have Improved until they were al
most not recognizable.
Tailback Sam Brown is the
rushing leader of the Pacific Coast
Conference with a net of 629 yards
and an average of 6.4 yards per
carry.
BEST RUNNER
Sanders calls Brown the best
runner he ever had at the key
tailback spot in his single wing
offense. But Brown credits full
back Bob Davenport with clearing
the way. Joining these two is wing
back Jim Decker whose reverses
have avsraged almost live yards
a play. The fourth member Is
blocking quarterback Bob Berg
dahl. Should Ronnie Knox be able to
ploy even to a limited degree,
ills passing would add Just the
touch of deception Sanders needs
if he hopes to beat the Spartans.
Knox has recovered from an ankle
break but is far behind In work
and may be off form when the
teams meet.
The 1954 team won by grinding
opponents to bits and didn't need
a superior backlield. This year's
team has been forced to depend
more on backfleld brilliance but.
bariing injuries in the line, it
could come up to a single game
performance that may be enough
to match the Spartans In strength.
