Sept 30. The San Francisco 49ers moved into sole possession of second place in the AAC tonight by defeating the ft "Sv ft -v and SFJC star pulled the Univer During that first half however, Loyola dominated play to the great amazement of every one enjoying the balmy night. The Lions made twelve first downs to the Dons seven, 151 yards aground to 75, and 93 yards above to 61. There were those watching this early fall night's dream who were saying: "That's old USF for you. Those Dons never could stand prosperity." OLLIE STARTS LATE.

That was before Rollin' Ollie took the hide in hand. During the rest period, Smiling Joe gave 'Ollie the full throttle signal. Once the 207 pound Negro speedster opened up the Lions never were in the game again. Matson fumbled, recovered and loped 19 yards with the second half kickoff. The Dons rolled out a first down to their 40.

Then, with a 53 yard spurt with a flat pass, Rollin' Olhe set up the second touchdown and the lethargic, bewildered Dons were on their way to a complete 27-12 victory over a vastly under-rated Loyola Lion. Loyola dominated first half play, baffling the locals with well set flankers that they had to cover. This left the forward wall thin and the cagey Loyolas battered the Dons guards Into submission to get a touchdown just two minutes before the first half ended. Don Klosterman's long pitch to Tommy Evans who pitched out a lateral to Fred Snyder left the Dons with their tongues hanging out and the ball on the four yard line. CONIGLIO SCORES FIRST.

Les Coniglio, a smashing half back, ran left end and appeared to make four yards. When Conig lio hit the goal line flag it bent outward from the field of play. The officials ruled no touchdown, so Klosterman sneaked the final foot on second down. But Donnie couldn't kick the point and the half closed with USF awakening. Matson, it was said, doesn't catch passes well.

But in the third period he wont up with Rubio an English as Eddie Brown threw 38 yarder and not one person in the place saw him catch the ball But he did. Jt was one of the great catches of the new season. Callison Moves Into State Semifina right flank. Eddie Brown knocked off the crucial tackier and Mat-son tiptoed nonchalantly down the side stripe. It was easy.

He went all the way. Brown kicked the point, making the score 7 to 6. The game, as far as the belittled but courageous Lions were concerned, was over.

Hay ward Littler, meantime, was a stroke over par while defeating San Francisco's Bobby Koos, 2 and 1, in the morning. And young Gene, who has won just about everything down San Diego way and whose smooth stroking has fascinated the natives here, administered a 3 and 2 defeat to the 1947 State champion, Bobby Gardner, with one under par golf. Littler Is one stroke over par for eighty-three holes. Dawson, however, is ten strokes better than perfect figures for seventy-four holes. The question is can Johnny go the route against his husky, far younger rival? If a portable chair and salt tablets will help tomorrow, Johnny will have them.

If he doesn't his legion of admirers will. Best shot of the day was a full eight iron approach with which Littler shut out Gardner at the sixteenth hole. That shot nearly holed out for an eagle, stopping just six inches away. hh'l) i fit) fm IMA ii fit it I vH nil 1 1 1 1 1 i 45 Or. nnA I HOMPS0 Chicago Hornets, 42-24, before 35,561 spectators in Soldier Field, It Vas a great comeback for the 49ers after their loss to Buf falo's Bills last Sunday and gave them the needed lift for their titanic with the Cleveland Browns, October 9, at San Fran cisco.

Frankie Albert displayed his same old wizardry tonight but it was End Alynn Beals who stole the show. Beals accounted for three touchdowns, an amazing effort as he was closely pursued all eve ning. In all, the 49ers got four of their six touchdowns through the air, with Albert passing to three and Jim Cason in a surprise move passing to the other. The Hornets flurried briefly In the contest, at 10-7. But after that it wasn't close.

Strangely, the Chicagoans of Ray Flaherty had a statistical edge in passing, 274 to 136, while 49ers ran up a S57 to 91 margin on the ground. QUICK TD. Albert and his associates scored In four minutes of the first quarter in what looked to be a duplicate of the free scoring pattern established on the coast in the 42-7 victory a month ago. Joe Perry took the kickoff to the 28, the attack failed but when Albert punted to Hornet Safety Man Bobby Livingstone, Bobby obligingly fumbled to Gail Bruce on the Chicago 37, providing the same break afforded in the previous meeting. Perry broke away for 15 yards a play later, Albert tossed his famous jump pass to Beals for another ten and a moment later leaped again and threw to Beals for a touchdown from the 3.

Joe Vetrano performed his usual place kicking chore and the 49ers led, 7-0. The Hornets flurried briefly, then, disrupting the pattern, when on the first play after the kickoff, Hunchy Hoernschemeyer caught Norm Standlee flat footed in the secondary and passed to Ray Ramsey who outran Norm to the goal line for a 77 yard pass play. HORNETS LEAD. The 49ers returned the fumble with John Strzykalski donating to Hornet Center Fred Negus on the San Francisco 30. Hunchy threw to Dan Edwards on the 4 but the Hornets lost ground steadily until on fourth down, they elected to try a field goal.

Jim McCarthy booted a field goal from the 30 and the Hornets led. 10-7. However, the normal pattern was resumed then and the contest elements of the game were over. Before the quarter ended, Albert tossed a pitchout to Perry, who scampered 57 yards to the Hornet 27 aided by Beals' (Continued on Page 18, Col. 7) 49ers Happy-Beals Says It Was His 'Best' CHICAGO, Sept.

30. The San Francisco 49ers charged around their Soldier Field dressing room like a flock of Sioux Indians as they prepared to catch their plane for home and the date next week against the league-leading Cleve land Browns. "I'm glad to have this one behind us," murmured relieved Coach "Buck" Shaw following the 49ers' 42-24 defeat of the Chicago Hornets. "I knew we had the better team but they had two weeks to point for us and you're always worried over a game like that." End Alynn Beals, who caught three touchdown passes, was the happiest of the troupe. "I had my best night tonight," commented Beals.

"I thought I should have had another touchdown but well, it just didn't happen. I think we'll beat Cleveland." The important things to Shaw was that the team emerged without injury, "Tackle Bob Bryant will be ready next week," he said. "He even wanted to play tonight. Terry was shaken up a bit but I think hell be all right, too." Perry shrugged off the comment. There'e nothing wrong with me," growled Joe.

SB IIIIIHIIIWV 1 Bruins Set Down Ducks By Bob Myers LOS ANGELES, Sept. 30. (AP) The surprising UCLA Bruins defeated Oregon tonight 35-27, registering the first major grid upset of the season and put ting a serious dent in the Webfoot Rose Bowl dreams. A cheering throng of 43,137 saw the Uclans hand Oregon its first defeat in fourteen conference games.

Two years ago another UCLA eleven won from the visi tors from Eugene, Ore. The victory was the third straight for Henry (Red) Sanders since he came here from Vanderbilt. Halfback, Ernie Johnson was the hero of a struggle that was not decided until the final minutes. UCLA got off to a seven point lead and never relinquished the edge. JUST ONE POINT.

Oregon, defending co-champions, repeatedly pulled up to within one narrow point. The Bruins scored in every quarter twice in an action-filled second period to lead, 21-13, at halftime. The UCLA ground game banged away at the enemy ends and tackles for tremendous yardage. Oregon's air attack failed to measure up to that of last year. 93 YARD RUN.

The longest run of the game came in the first period. Halfback Woodley Lewis of Oregon unreeled a 93 yard kickoff return with UCLA leading, 7-0. Oregon's try for the extra point was un successful. Two Oregon touchdowns result ed from breaks. One came when a deflected Webiot pass bounced from the finger tips of a Bruin into Johnny McKay's hands on the Bruin five.

Later another aerial bounced from a Bruin interceptionist's hands into the arms of End Dar rell Robinson, who stepped over five yards for the final Oregon touchdown. UCLA rolled up an astonishing 310 yards to Oregon's 38 on the ground, and was content with spot passing for 89 yards to the 136 picked up by Oregon. UCLA had twenty-one first downs, Oregon eight. JOHNSON BIG STAR. Johnson accounted for 118 yards running and passed for 56.

NORTH BAT LEAGUE Santa Rosa 33, San Rafael 0. PEBBLE BEACH, Sept. 30. Verne Callison of Sacramento, who has never won a major golf event but has frequently been knocking at the door, is tap, tap, tapping again tonight. He won two matches in the State championship today to be the lone northern Californian remaining in the play as the field was sharply cut to the semifinal stage.

Callison defeated the southern California amateur champion Gerald Douglas, 2 and 1, with two over par golf and then came back to oust Gene Andrews, the Los Angeles city champ, 4 and 3, with one over par play. Victory for Verne gained him the underdog role as he emerged to meet the highly favored II. MacGregor Hunter, 20 year old son of professional Willie Hunter, in one of tomorrow's 36 hole semifinals. HUNTER DOWNS PAIR. Hunter measured Jack Eck-lund, the Fort Washington (Fresno) Club champion this morning, 3 and 2, and then won a 3 and 1 verdict over Ted Richards, ex-Pacific coast intercollegiate champ.

Although Callison is the underdog, it cannot be said that his golf this week merits that role. He is just six strokes worse than par for the eighty-five holes. Hunter, on the other hand, is ten over par for eighty-seven holes. Most brilliant golf today, how ever, was shot by the veteran Johnny Dawson, 1942 champion and his semi-final rival, 19 year old Gene Littler of San Diego, who meet tomorrow in the other semifinal. DAWSON IN FORM.

The Dawson followers, and they are legion, fear only the long thirty six hole treks which Johnny faces in these final three days. Today he saved ten hoies by ending his matches in quick stvle. First victim was Oakland's Aldo Galletti, who was given 6 and 4 brushof f. Then he crushed Jay Hopkins Jr. of Los Altos, 7 and 6.

Hopkins had trimmed the northern California junior champ, Ken Venturi, in the morn ing, 4 and 2. Dawson started like a house afire against Hopkins, firing bird. ies on the second, third and fourth holes with putts of twenty, five and four feet, respectively, He tanked a fifteen foot putt for an eagle on six and birdied nine with a thirty-five footer to go out in four under par 32 and take seven up lead. He closed out the match on the twelfth. Scores, Itosii.tH lit State Golf Par out 484 435 34438 riena Littler ....444 444 34435- 2 up Bob Gardner.
