KUHS Pelicans, 40-7

VANCOUVER, Wash. (Special) I
Hudson Bay High School proved to
be the better mudders in a game
with the KUHS Pelicans in Kiggins
Bowl Saturday night and toppled
the Pelicans 40-7.
Hudson Bay opened the scoring
midway in the first quarter when
they recovered a fumble on the
Pel 18-yard line. Gary Wyche, stel
lar quarterback for t h e Eagles,
plunged over from the one, Wyche
booted the extra point and the
Eagles went ahead 7-0.
The Pelicans came charging back
and as the first quarter ended they
were on the Hudson Bay 9-yard
line. Three plays after the second
quarter opened, Doug VanBuskirk
hurtled over from the 2-yard line
for the score. Richard Humphrey
booted the extra point to tie the
game at 7-7.
The Eagles broke the ball game
wide open when they scored twice
in the last three minutes of the
second period. Tom Buckner broke
loose (or a 43-yard scoring jaunt
with three minutes remaining in
the second period. Gary Wyche
booted the extra point to make it
14-7.
After a short punt by the Pels;
Vancouver drove to the 8-yard line
and as time ran out, Wyche passed
to Earl Bork in the end zone for
the third Eagle TD. Wyche missed
the first attempted conversion but
an offside penalty gave him a
second try. The second attempt
was good to make the halftime
score . . . Hudson Bay 21
KUHS 7.
Amid a driving rain the Eagles
continued to roll, adding three more
touchdowns in the second half. Wy
che, who completed 5 of 11 passes,
fired a third down pass to Buck
ner who sprinted over from the
20 with three minutes and 22 sec
onds left to play in the third quar
ter. Wyche's attempted conversion
was wide. The third period ended
with Vancouver in front 27-7.
Midway in the fourth period Del

ELMOXT, N.Y., Oct. 13 tfl
Ollie Webster, 19, an exercise boy
at Belmont race track, showed up
at the Franklin National Bank here
Friday with a bag containing
2.200 pennies. He wanted them
changed into bills.
"I won a bet on the World Se
ries," Ollie explained, "and the
guy who lost was so angry he
paid me off in pennies."
The unidentified teller said he
was short on dollar bills and
would be right back. He was with
a policeman. Bank employes had
been alerted that a bag of pennies
had been s'olen from a tavern
here.
Donald Lewis, the tavern keeper
identified the bag. His name was
on it. Ollie was held in 2,500 bail
for a hearing Tuesday on a burg

Norman Hooper, converted from an
end to fullback, ran the extra
point.
In the second quarter neither
team was able to penetrate within
each other's 20-yard line, until the
final three minutes, when an OTI
bad pass from center set up the
Mountaineer's lone score.
With fourth down, the Owls were
forced to punt from their own 39
yard line, but a bad pass from
center went way over Leach's
head back to the Owl 15-yard line
where EOC took possession.
An offside penalty moved the
ball to the OTI 10-yard line, then
halfback Dick Quinn bulled his
way to the 7-yard line.
Kiggins Bowl, named for a for
mer player of Vancouver, Wash
ington, was a virtual quagmire but
both teams played good football.
Wyche proved to be too much for
the Pelicans to handle as he called
the plays, did the passing, and
turned in a spectacular defensive
job for the victors.
While the Pelican aerial game
clicked for six out of 13, the passes
completed were only for short
gains.
Offensively, Tom Ankeny and
Blake Griggs handled the Pelican
plays well, with Doug VanBuskirk
and Richard Humphrey doing most
of the ball carrying. The Pelican
ground game was decidedly ham
pered by the muddy field, and
throughout the second half the Pels
were unable to put together a sus
tained downfield drive.
In addition to Wyche, turning in
exceptional performances for the
Eagles were Tom Buckner and
Earl Bork, left end who pulled in
one touchdown pass and was a con
stant threat.
The Pels will play host to Med-
ford next on Friday, October 18 in
their first conference game of the
season.
Hudson Bay High School is slated
to meet the Axemen of E u g e n e
High next week.

Quinn again got the nod, and
this time went over left tackle,
driving and spinning into the end
zone. Fullback John Willmarth's
try from placement was not good.
During the third quarter neither
team could make any considerable
yardage, the Owls driving to the
EOC 22 and 13-yard lines, but sur
rendering the ball on downs, fail
ing to pick up a first down on
fourth down plays.
Retribution came the Owls' way
in the final minutes of the third
quarter when a bad pass from

possession of the ball.
Notre Dame Topples Army
23-21 With Field Goal
PHILADELPHIA W- Notre
Dame end Monte Stickles, branded
'goat" moments before, kicked
a 29-yard field-goal with less than
nine minutes to play Saturday and
earned the fighting Irish a 23-21
victory over Army in a pulsating
renewal of one nf fnnthnN'a mnct
colorful 'rivalries. ,
Stickles' arrow-true kick came
2 minutes, 28 seconds after he had
shot wide on a conversion attempt
louowing Notre Dames third
touchdown and leaving Armv in
front, 21-20.
The bitter battle, featured bv
a brilliant individual running duel
between Army's yearling hairback
Bob Anderson and Notre Dame's
driving fullback Nick Pietrosante,
followed the nerve-stabbing tradi
tion of Army-Notre Dame games.
It was the first time both teams
had scored as many as three
touchdowns against each other in
a single game since the competi
tion started back in 1913, when
Gus Dorais and Knute Rockne
teamed for an opening Irish vic
tory. A player named Dwight
Eisenhower was sub on the Army
team at the time.

It was a feeling the football star
had experienced before, as on the
day he quit high school at Walla

to De persuaded by friends and
tne state police to return.
Handsome Bobby never was a
bad actor in the conventional
sense. But at the fuzzy-cheeked
age of 16 he was an admitted vag
abond, driven by nagging notions
of insecurity.
Cox has another word for it, al
though he mentions it with the
nodding smile of one who has
licked his troubles and can joke
about them. "I guess I was some
thing of a bum. 1 never knew
exactly where I wanted to go or
how to get there."
No one who has watched him

Minnesota football followers have
known a lot of Saturday heroes.
Few have gripped them like Cox.
A psychiatrist might guess that
because of his celebrated ups and
downs, Cox is someone the fan
can identify himself with, a player
who seems something more than a
icrsied automaton from a sta
dium seat.
Whatever it Is, Cox gets the
fans in a tizzy. A year ago thou

The incident was just one more
emotional involvement for a young

early age and found himself in
Walla Walla. Teachers and em
ployers befriended him, trying to
make him feel at home. Some
times they succeeded.
At Washington University after
a promising sophomore season he
became "disillusioned" with the
way things were going with a
team that revolte'd against Coach

Cox pulled up stakes again and

Everson crashed through the

way over the middle down to the

This time it was halfback Rich

It was the 24th triumph for the
Irish against seven victories for
Army and four ties. And it was
particularly sweet since the flu-

game in which both emerged un

the opening touchdown in the first
three minutes of play.
It was one of two touchdowns
for the fleet halfback, who con
stantly was ripping off long gains

Notre Dame defenses. The third

from six yards out after a 72-

Although racking up 345 yards

for Illinois Valley, the best the
Henley Hornets could do Friday
night was a 12-12 tie in their A-2
conference game.
The Hornets were plagued bv

Jim Chapman went 20 yards on a
reverse. A holding penalty nullified
the score.
Illinois Valley took the opening
kickoff and moved steadily down
the field for their first score.
The Hornets retaliated when Jim
Chapman climaxed a 60-yard drive
by going 10 yards over right tackle.
The score was tied.
In the second period Illinois Val
ley intercepted a Hornet pass on
the Henley 15-yard line and two
plays later went over for the score.
Henley then powered across an
other counter to tie the score.

Yellow Hats
Are Better,
Expert Says
FT. LEWIS. Wash., Oct. IS OB -
If more hunters wore yellow there
probably would be a lot fewer of
them shot, field tests in the color-
splotched Wenatchee National For
est proved this week to the satis
faction of Dr. Arthur C. Heinscn.
Dr. Heinsen is research director
of a series of tests designed to
line up fewer hunters in gun sights
and more animals.
The results, said Dr. Heinsen
at conclusion of the tests Saturday,
probably will sound the death
knell to red hats and jackets for
protective purposes as garb" be
cause yellow proved to be six
times more easy to identify than
red.
11115 wasn i aione in me many

cade Mountains now being in
vaded by an army of red-hatted
and jacketed hunters but in deep
terrain, snow country and green
forests, Dr. Heinsen said
"Red," he reported, "seems to
be the poorest or next to the poor
est for the majority of test par
ticipants who were involved in the
three year study."
This week s tests included men
of varying visual acuity, including
some who were color blind. Yel
low, it turned out, could be seen
by all.
The large scale observations
were made in cooperation with the
U. S. Army, which furnished man
power from Ft. Lewis, the Cali
fornia Optometric Assn., which
Dr. 1 Heinsen heads, and the fish
and game departments of Califor
nia, Washington and Oregon.
Dr. Heinsen took his charts and
figures to San Jose Saturday night
for a final analysis but he said he
doesn't expect any change in his
deductions. Just in the color of

Panthers Top
Sacred Heart
The Chiloquin Panthers proved
too much for the Sacred Heart
Trojans Saturday when they passed
for four touchdowns and a 24-0
victory.
The Panthers scored in each of
the four quarters, ramming across
the first one when Richard Ochoa
passed to Bruce Parazoo for a
20-yard scoring play. It was the
same scoring combination in the
second quarter and the play was
good for 45 yards.
In the third period Ochoa un
leashed a 35-yard aerial to Steven
Pope for the counter. In the final
period Ochoa heaved to Ronnie
Gunther for a 25-yard scoring play.
None of the conversion attempts
were good.
Sacred Heart was troubled with
fumbles during the rainy afternoon
and was not able to put together
a drive which moved them inside
the Chiloquin 35-yard line.
In addition to the passing of
Ochoa and the sure fingers of his
receivers, Munson Sandoval looked
exceptionally good for the victors
when spearheading the Chiloquin
running game.

NEW YORK (UP) This was
after the last game of the World
Series which they just had lost
and as the Yankees sat there
with their heads drooping and
their spirits low it came to you
that they could have used the
man called Lefty Gomez.
It carried you back to another
time these same Yankees dropped
the whole ball of wax and sat,
much the same although the faces
were different, before their lock
ers. That was when the man they
called "Goofy" marched bravely
to the door, looked back, sum
moned a grin and raised a much
needed laugh by announcing:
Okay fellows. The victory din
ner will be at Horn and Har-
dart's."
They howled and snapped out of
it Which is what they needed aft'

waukee Braves. v
There is no Lefty Gomez on the
Yankees, or any other ball club,
these days. Which probably is
why they talk about him so much
whenever they gather in those
chin sessions which- ball players
love.
'I remember." one was saving
