16 PART I. etty Newell, Bud Ward Team Beaten Revenge Sought by Cos Attfiete I it MONDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1941 'Tew. 7 Behind The Line With DICK HYLAND Very close to 90,000 people the largest football crowd to see a game this season were seated in the Coliseum when the Trojans kicked off to Stanford last Saturday afternoon. It was a rare bird among 4them who was not expecting Stanford to go zzzt! and score from any spot on the field. The people also wanted to see Frank Albert pass and run.

Stanford obliged on its first score when Eric Armstrong broke lose and rambled 69 yards. Albert flipped a pass to Meiners for a first down two plays later and then whipped another through his end's hands immediately after.

Rich Awards Await Riders Motorcycle Stars to Compete for Big Prizes Tomorrow Night Trize money that will total close to $1000 will be at stake to morrow night at Los Angeles Softball Park track when 16 of the nation's greatest motorbike riders tangle in the unofficial championship American Derby. Purses for the 16 qualifying heat races for the title finale and the usual handicap events figure to be the highest paid in the country this year, thereby spur ring the free-wheeling daredevils to unsurpassed performances. Liberal contributions from many motorbike agencies and race enthusiasts have helped swell the championship kitty, officials revealed. Gruelling competition in 16 heat races confront the derby contestants. High four men will then go into the finale.

In addition, the usual handicap races, along with a sidecar exhibition by Harry (Pappy) Pelton and a stunt riding act by the clever Renard sisters are on the bill. American Hockey St. Louis, St. Paul, 0. Omaha, Kansas City, 1.

Lemos Boss Like the eleDhant. Ra ry von Stumme never forgets. The Baron manaeres Rirhi Lemos, world's featherweight cnampion, wno ngnts Pittsburgh Jackie Wilson in tho 17 main event at' the Olympic Audi- lonum one week from tomorrow night. Richie's title is at stak. But there's more than that in- volved.

For the Baron, it's a chance to even an old score. A few years back the Baron loaded an auto with California fighters and invaded the East. Among them was a lanky Mexi can featherweight named Chico Homo. Tne Baron thought the world of Chico. BARON'S FIGHTER LOSES In an evil moment the Baron signed Chico to fight a young man in Philadelphia yes, you've guessed it.

The young man was Jackie Wilson of Pittsburgh. The record book shows it mere ly as a win for Wilson. But the record book doesn't begin to describe the harrowed feelings of Baron von Stumme, the hopes that were crushed and shattered. This is Henry's chance for revenge through the agency of Lemos' potent fists. BOXES DAILY The chamDion la boxinc six rounds every afternoon at the Mannattan Gym with Young Car ranza, Willie Nusbaum and Jimmy Green as spar mates.

This will be increased to eight, start ing tomorrow. Over at the Main Street Gvm. challenger Wilson is being carefully groomed by the veteran trainer, Al Lang. Casanega, Mecham Grid Duel Expected PORTLAND (Or.) Nov! 9. () An offensive duel between Halfbacks Curt Mecham of Oregon and Ken Casanega of Santa Clara was seen today for the Armistice Day football game here.

A week-long spell of dry weath er held and Multnomah Field was in ideal condition for the running and passing attacks featuring the two backfield stars. At Eugene, Coach Tex Oliver said his backfield would be stronger than at any time since the first game. Halfbacks Frank Boyd and Ken Oliphant, recuperated from injuries, will be ready to spell the starting halfbacks, Tommy Roblin and Mecham. Only man lost from the Oregon squad is Merritt Kufferman, reserve tackle who entered a hospital yesterday with a stomach ailment. Grid Standings BIO SIX CONFEBENCK Opt).

New Haven, Pittsburgh, 1. After that the eager 90,000 sat on the edge of their seats and little happened to satisfy their thrill-hungry appetites. Now that we have had time to analyze what went on it becomes fairly clear that Stanford clammed up, offensively, the final three quarters. Too, that football field became a laboratory and clinic. When Clark Shaughnessy was asked, in the dressing room following the game, what had become of all Stanford's plays during the last three quarters, he said, "Huh?" Forgets the Good Ones "Well," it was explained, "you used plays last week good ones against Santa Clara you didn't use today.

And you didn't use twice some plays that were successful in the first period today." "Oh," grinned Shaughnessy, "so soon as we find a play gains yards we forget that one and try some other one." Mr. S. was joking but he could have said, "Why use stuff you may need in later games when the stands are full of scouts just praying to see your best stuff?" It is not our privilege to know, but as neither Mr. Shaughnessy nor Quarterback Albert may be called a dummy, it can well be that the Indians said to themselves, "Enough is enough for now. We'll go get more points if we need them.

Meanwhile, 'straight football' is the watchword." And straight football it was. The Stanford players did not accept the aid of the great series of plays they have; they proclaimed a man-to-man game of football. And man-to-man the Trojans met them on even terms for three quarters. Lab Session Opens Meanwhile, on the bench, Mr. Shaughnessy, must have said to himself, "Hum! Here is where we experiment a bit, find out what a man or two can do and give a few others some very helpful game experience before a big crowd." Into the game trotted Crane, Cole, Mitchell, Stahle, Mastin, Symes, Laverty, Francis, McCain, Johannessen, Cox and Man-non among others.

How many of those names do you recognize as being among the Indian players readily remembered? Or even remembered. Combinations were tried, with some of the newcomers working with some of the regulars, both in the backfield and the line. Some did not last long, others were given a good go at the Trojans. And that keen-eyed Shaughnessy-Marchy Schwartz combination-sat on the bench and watched them all. They were finding out what a boy could do in the only way you can truly determine that factor by playing him in a game.

Indians Too Versatile From the above it may be concluded that (a) we think Stanford could have given El Trojan a worse drubbing than was administered and (b) that El can't be so hot if that is so. Such a conclusion is but partially correct. So long as you play only the game Southern California can play the Trojans are a good ball club. Most teams can play no other game but that slam-bang, man-to-man stuff. Stanford elected, freely, to play that way so long as the game's outcome was not in danger.

Had EI Trojan threatened that gaping hole in the center of the Trojan backfield would have been' attacked with passes, those fast-breaking wide plays the slower Trojans could not successfully cover again would have been on display. The Trojans can rest assured most teams do not have the speed and assortment of plays possessed by Stanford. In fact, not having seen them until Saturday, last, prior to that first quarter we'd have said even Stanford did not have -that many heavy guns in their offensive arsenal. Barnett Cops Race at Ascot Oakland Champion Finishes First in 140-Lap Affair Ed Barnett. Oakland 500-mile champion, trimmed a fast field of veteran race drivers to win yesterday's 140-Iap big car race at Ascot Speedway, South Gate.

The race was shortened from 150 laps by officials due to darkness. Barnett took over the lead from Slim Mathis on the 118th lap after the pair had staged a ding-dong battle, changing first place three times inside of 10 laps. The extra speed forced Mathis to the pits with engine trouble, however, and he wasn't able to return. PALMER SECOND Ken Palmer was second, Johnny Garrett third, Dick Stangland fourth, Shorty Ellyson fifth and! George Fitzger sixth. Bamett's time was lh.

6m. 20.35s. Bill SchefTler and Johnny Parsons, who had fastest qualifying times, were both forced to the pits early, SchefTler when leading on the seventh lap and Parsons when in the lead on the 34th lap. PARSONS BEATEN SchefTler trimmed Parsons in the two-lap helmet sprint in 54.42s. while Parsons passed all drivers on the track to win the 10-lap Australian pursuit in 4m.

4.55s. Johnny Garrett took the Class 10-lapper in 4m. 44.36s. Manager Dave Mings an nounced a 150-lap stock roadster race for next Sunday, while Thanksgiving afternoon at Ascot will be celebrated with the 200- lap Gold Cup classic. San Diego Boots Way to Victory Continued from 15th Page sparked by Al Braga, former Uni versity of San Francisco star, dominated play most of the game, but couldn't produce the neces sary punch when within scoring distance.

Three minutes after the open ing whistle, Farkas, who alter nated at fullback with Mattingly, stepped back and booted the ball between the goal posts tp give the Bombers a 3-to-0 edge. The San Diego team hung tenaciously to that margin Jn the face of re peated Packer drives and In the third quarter Mattingly made it 6 to 0, toeing a field goal from the San Francisco 27-yard line. PASS INTERCEPTION A sensational pass interception by Jerry Conlee, San Francisco center, gave the Packers their big scoring opportunity. Conlee hauled In one of Chuck Fenen bock's aerials and rambled 44 yards to the San Diego 46. Tony Kaska and Braga alternated on a series of plunges that carried to the San Diego 6-yard marker.

Three plunges put the ball on the San Diego 2, and on fourth down Kaska was stopped on the 1-yard line, but San Diego was offside and the northerners got another chance. Kaska attempted to crash over center but was stopped six inches short of a touchdown by Mike Lorenz, San Diego's left guard. Summary: Ban Francisco San Diego Brunattl LB. Vaunhn Jonea L.T.

CURTI STILL OUT Fullback Noah Curtl, who was held out of action when his side was slow in mending, probably will extend his inactivity an other week. Gene Alder, Johnny Johnson, Bob Waterfield, Jim Pierson, Leo Cantor, Herb Wiener, Ted Forbes and Al Solari were other front-rankers in the casualty brigade, but all will be available within a day or so. Of the six stay-at-homes, who were not taken along because of their hurts, three are expected to rejoin their mates at tomorrow's light drill. They are Billy Armstrong, Dean Strawn and George Phillips. The others, Bob Simpson, Stu Mc-Kenzle and Ed Irwin, have been given their "releases." They are through for the year.

The "hospital express" 1 scheduled to reach Glendale at Callender and Abbott Triumph Men Finish All Square i in Their Links Duel at Annandale Course Showing their utter disregard for high-sounding titles, Annan-dale's Clara Callender and Riviera's Pat Abbot teamed to hand a 2-and-l defeat to Betty Hicks Newell of Long Beach and Bud Ward of Spokane, National Amateur men's and women's titlists, respectively, in an exhibition match for the British War Relief at Annandale yesterday. The anticipated battle between Ward and Abbott, finalists in the hectic National Amateur championships at Omaha this summer, ended all even. In the women's division, Miss Callender topped Mrs. Newell, 2 up. WARD'S 72 LOW Ward's 72 was the low score.

Abbott carded a 73, Mrs. Newell a 75 and Miss Callender trailed with a 78. A gallery of more than 500 saw the lead seesaw back and forth until the 16th hole when Miss Callender sank a four-footer for a par four after knocking a ball out of bounds. This enabled the victors to keep a one-up edge and all four carded threes on the 17th to end the match. BUD BAGS EAGLE One of the prettiest holes of the afternoon was the eagle three that Ward turned in on the 410-yard second hole.

This gave the national champions a one-up lead that lasted until Miss Callender birdied the fifth to tie it up. Abbott shot birdies on the sixth and seventh, toughest holes on the course, to take the lead away from Ward and Mrs. Newell. Miss Callender pitched in one from off the green for a birdie three on the 10th to give her team a one-up edge that lasted until the 17th. Fox Stanton Quits Caltech Continued from 15th Page posed of four faculty members and three students, must pass on the matter and present their choice to the executive council, headed by Dr.

Robert A. Milli-kan. First inkling of Stanton's decision to quit the game which has been part of his life for so many years was given to his players in a dramatic but terse pre-game talk just before the Beavers took the field against Pomona in the Rose Bowl last Friday night. Telling them about his decision to quit and asking for a favor, Stanton was quoted as saying: "Go out there and win this one for me to remember you by." UPSET POMONA Caltech won it, beating Pomona, 14-0. It was the Engineers' first conference victory since 1934, when they upset Occidental, 7-6.

Stanton will complete his 21st year as Caltech's head coach against San Diego State next Fri- day night. He is the dean of coaches in point of service on the Pacific Coast.

Dorrance Williamson of Compton trundled Friday to nip Ken Ingram's Excalibur In the Pacific one-design hydroplane battle. The yarn within a yarn which featured today's marine battle hung on the burning of Marvin Erisman's Hot Saturday. Coming out for the second 135 class heat, Erisman started the motor and the boat suddenly burst into flames. The Newport Harbor Fire Department was on deck immediately with water hose but failed to stop the fire. Then 10-year-old Noel Wroolie, son of Yachtsman Vern O.

The team is worn out and shot through with parts that need replacement It isn't any secret that the Giant farms don't have the necessary ma terial to fill the gaps.

TIRED OF INSULTS Bill Is also quite tired of the compression he undergoes at the foio Grounds. New York fans won't support a loser and Bill's ears have burned crisply in the past years when his teams flopped. The press batters him with sadistic delight many or tne town's reporters vent ing their spleen over personal grudges. All would be different in Cleve' land. There, Terry's genius for management would have full chance to bloom.

He would pre fer a front-office Job, anyway, to more years of directing a team on the field. Ted Wilks Stingy Ted Wilks, pitcher, who ad vances' from the Houston-club to Columbus, issued only 41 bases on balls in the Texas League. CHICAGO, Nov. 9. This may not be the time of the year for baseball but it definitely is the season for baseball gossip.

And the grapevines are lush with million and six rumors con cerning the ultimate solution of the "great Cleveland mystery." At present, the Tribe is with out a general manager and a legion of bright baseball boys are being offered to Owner Alva Bradley to fill the vacant post. BIGGEST NAME First and biggest name is that of William Harold Terry of the Giants the disappointing, defunct, deplorable Giants. iTerry, busy mending his fences and jarring preserves on his extensive estate just outside Memphis, isn't saying anything. He won't because It wouldn't be pol itic for him to come right out boldly 'and say he's interested in the job. Wouldn't be proper be cause he still has another year to go as Giant manager at $42,000 per j'ear.

Incidentally, Owner Horace Stoneham would release him from that. But it isn't hard to believe that Bill would welcome the chance to go to Cleveland, where there is lots of monev for farm rieveloD- player purchases and fan interest. The Giants have dried NEWPORT HARBOR, Nov. 9.
