Th Tigers play Alhambra next Friday in th first round of tho playoffs at Alhambra, POMONA. FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 24, 1939 Trojans Rule Favorites To Win Against Irish In No. 1 Grid Tilt By DAVE MEIKLEJOHN Pomona high school Red Devil today staked out a third interest in a Citrus Belt league championship following yesterdays decisive 14 to 6 victory against San Bernardinos Cardinals at the Gate City, But whether Chaffey or Pomona or San Bernardino would represent the Citrus Belt loop in the I.

F. southern section playoff remained to be settled at a league meeting to- Wrap it up in a forward paw, and you could peddle the Broollyn bridge to Pomona' gullible junior college Red Raider. The Raider fell victim to the old shelling'' game again yesterday afternoon when they dropped a 1 4 to 7 exhibition Thanksgiving Day contest to Compton's Tartars of the Metropolitan circuit on Compton field. With a perfectly good lead of 7 to 0-after the first quarter and only a minute left to play in the second canto, Compton completed one Caltech Gridder, Hurt in Contest With L.V., Dies By HENRY McLEMORE SOUTH BEND, Nov. 24 (U.R) The thing scenario writers and novelists have termed the spirit of Notre Dame" was being summoned up today on this prairie campus.

Tomorrow, for the first time this season, the team whose reputation across the years has rested on its ability to battle, will be called upon to fight uphill. Southern California is on its way. Even now the burly men from Los Angeles are taking their finale-workout on the University of II- pass tor 37 yard and a second one of 80 yard for a touchdown then kicked goal to knot the score at half time, 7 to 7. Midway In the fourth quarter the Tartars, unable to consistently penetrate Pomonas powerful line, a weary lot of boye who dug In and fought like Tigers all day, threw another 87-yard pass for the winning touchdown. They were ridiculous passes, of the close-your-eyes-and-pray variety.

Tet the Raider secondary permitted men to get behind to take the tosses, looking silly In the bargain. Except for the passes and Pomonas first quarter drive, It was a dull game to put before the turkey day crowd. The Red Raiders recovered Bugbee'e fumble on the Compton 24-yard line after three minutes of play In the first quarter and Bill Buckie, carrying the pigskin eight consecutive times, bucked over for the touchdown. Bob Johnson converted. Thruout that quarter and part of the second, Pomona threatened mildly, but the Raiders had to depend strictly on their regulars and the varsity combination began to wear down as the first half closed.

Jack Morrisey of Compton tossed the first pass, good for 87 yards and a Compton first down on the Pomona SO, to Johnny Yonclch and then burled a second one to Larry Van Peursen for 30 yards and a touchdown as the Tartars tied the score, Agajanlan booting the ball between the uprights for the extra point The half ended after Telts-worth had hurled a beautiful pass, good for 29 yards, to Earl Thomas, and a second pass good for seven yards, on Pomona's behalf. The third quarter was a dull punting duel. Pomona couldn't generate any kind of a running attack and Compton, making some progress on running plays, ultimately Would be stopped cold by Pomonas line. Comptons second touchdown came in the fourth quarter when Van Peursen flipped one for 37 yards to Joe Kelty. Aga-janian again converted from placement By way of concluding the game, Teitsworth hurled another beauty to Earl Thomas for Pomona, good for 27 yards, but Compton Intercepted the next onq.

and the game ended shortly after that Redblrds first down on Pomona's 29. Strigle made two then five, then failed to gain. A fourth down pass was Incomplete. Pomona took the ball on Its own 26. Kouns went five, Clifford ran eight for first down on the 38.

Kouns hit tackle for six, San Bernardino was offside, giving the Devils first down on the 49. Miller went in for Clifford, who was injured. Miller lost eight yards and Black was forced to punt. Strigle returned to the S. B.

35. Strigle dashed 12 ynrds around end for first down on the S. B. 47. He lost five, gained back three and then ran 14 yards to the Pomona 41.

Two plunges netted the Redblrds only 4 yards and Nlemtyer punted to West, who fumbled, but recovered on the Pomona 5. The balf ended soon after Bill Black puraed out to the 50-yard line. THIRD QUARTER It was an uneventful quarter until the close, except for Billy ICouns' 26 yard run off tackle. San Bernardino stopped the drive on the Red-bird 31 after Clifford again had been hurt. Near the close of the period, Pomona took a San Bernardino punt to the San Bernardino 49.

Clifford went 5 off tackle; Kouns, behind good Interference rambled 21 yards for first down. Clifford, Kouns and Ewing made It first down on the San Bernardino 15, Ewing going four yards over center on fourth down. The Devils were held one yard short of first down, San Bernardino taking tha ball on the Redblrd as the quarter ended. FOURTH QUAKER Following an exchange of punts and a San Bernardino fumble by Strigle, recovered by Don Adams for Pomona on the San Bernardino 32, the Red Devils generated another drive. Kouns made three and then three more.

On the third play. Bob Ewing broke away on an offguard buck, got Into the clear and ran for a touchdown. Again Mel Duran converted from placement. POMONA. 14; SAN BERNARDINO, 6.

Archie Nlsbet sent in his second and third stringers to finish the game. San Bernardino recovered Jack Leman's fumble on the Fo-mona 44. Passes from Sederes to Porter and Sederes to NIemoyer made first downs on the 30 and then the Pomona 14. Pomona was penalized five yards for too many times out. Porter then passed to Vautherot for a touchdown.

Strlgl attempting an end run, failed to convert The game ended one rlay after the kickoff. Following are the starting day. Chaffey claim the right by virtue of having defeated both San Bernardino and Pomona. Pomona official do not recall a aimilar incident, but believe that as defending champion the Red Devils should rate the chance for the playoffs. Here's the way the league standings stood after this week's encounters: W.

L. Pet. Pomona 8 Chaffey 8 San Bernardino 8 Redlands 2 Santa Ana 2 Riverside 3 Possibility of a playoff between the three teams tied was suggested, but the league In general has frowned on Intra-league playoffs, largely because the C. I. F.

playoffs bring more gate receipts. Devil Outplay Cardinals Surviving a first quarter scare which ended when Buzz" Brown of San Bernardino fumbled on Po-mona'a 5-yard stripe and Mile Nay recovered for the Red Devils, Pomona's Devils proved too hot for the Cardinals In yesterday's decisive encounter. Brown, who has been the Cardinals' big backfield star all season, was taken out In the first quarter with an Injured ankle, and didn't return to the game. His absence left San Bernardino Just another football team untU the fourth quarter when the Red Birds tallied against Pomona's "Wildcats, composed of second and third string varsity players, on a 14-yard pass from Porter to Vautherot, Into the end zone. Pomona scored In the first quarter when Jack Clifford Intercepted a long San Bernardino pass on the Pomona 25-yard line and galloped 75 yards down the sidelines to a touchdown, with his mates effectively blocking out the Redblrds In his path.

In the fourth quarter. Bob Ewing, after showing fine ball carrying ability In the third quarter, rammed his way over center, broke into the clear and rambled 27 yards for a touchdown. Another Pomona drive was stopped by San Bernardino on the Pomona 6-yard line after Billy Kouns, Jack Clifford and Ewing, three of Pomonas backfield greats in yesterdays game, had battered away at San Bernardino's forward wall. Kouns 20-yard run In this series was Just one of several fine runs made by the Devil quarterback. Just before that In the same period he broke away for 26 yards off tackle.

Pomona Line Strong Pomona's line was easily master In the encounter against the Red-birds much vaunted forward wall. Bob Marberry, Miles Nay, Alvin Catron, Mel Duran, Bill Black, Don Adams and Leroy Valdez particularly played fine football In the front trenches. Marberry turned In 1 best performance of the season. Durans placeklcklng, which has failed the Devils only Infrequently, accounted for two of Pomonas extra points In the game. The former Fremont Junior high ace played a splendid game to boot.

First Quarter Clifford of Pomona returned the San Bernardino kickoff from the 6 to the Pomona 19. The Devils made one first down on an eight yard run by Billy Kouns and a three yard plunge by Bob Vest West made two yards, then Kouns' pass was intercepted by Darling of San Eer-nardlno who returned to the Pomona 35. With Brown and Severson alternating, San Bernardino went to the Pomona 24. Brown broke away on a beautiful run to the Pomona 4 yard line, a gain of 20 yards. Brown, nearly a hero, proved to be the goat when he fumbled on the next play and Miles Nay recovered for the Red Devils on San Bernardino's 3-yard stripe.

Clifford punted out to the 45. Brown returning to the 39. Brown mado four then 2 yards, being taken from the game with a fractured collarbone after this play. Sederes punted out on the Pomona 13 and Bill Black booted back to tho Td-mona 47. Strigle made one, then Porter threw a long pass which was Intercepted by Clifford, who took It on the Pomona 25 and rarf It for a touchdown.

24 (U.R) Even here. In the home of the fighting- Irish, the football player who le talked about li Nile Clarke Klnnlck of Iowa. It would be Just the same If I were in Minneapolis, Champaign, Chicago, Lafayette, Madison or any other Big Ten football center. Klnnlck It the player of the year at far at this section Is concerned and after 24 hours of listening to accounts of hit prowess I am convinced that If he doesn't get the Heltman Memorial trophy for the standout gridiron performance of the season, then that award might Just as well be split Into kindling wood to start somebodys fire. Here Is a man who weighs only 170 pounds.

Just a sturdy little blue eyed boy with an all over cowlick for a haircut Tet he has played 1(0 consecutive minutes against six of the toughest football clubs In America. They havent even had to call time out for him. He has run Into and tackled the biggest guys In the biggest league without once landing on, the flat of his back. He Just ducks a shoulder, tucks a chin behind It and pours It on. He Isn't fast and he Isn't tricky at lugging the ball.

There Is nothing cute or fancy about his running. He plays It the tough way. But he Is as tricky as a snake on a rock or a red-headed gal when It comes to throwing that ball or calling plays that capitalize to the fullest the smallest chink in the armor of his foes. He knows how to fake when he fades back to throw a pass, and when he lets It loose even Annie Oakley would have to stand up and holler "boys, there's a guy who can shoot Here's a few things he has done: Against Notre Dame he couldnt run to a score from left half back so he changed to right half and tore that side of the Irish line apart Against Wisconsin he threw three touchdown passes. Against Minnesota In 80 seconds be drove his team 80 yards on four plays, throwing or carrying the ball on each one.

He came back, and In six plays, on five of which he handled the ball, he rolled what Bert McGrane of the Des Moines Register has aptly termed the heroic handful, 79 yards for the touchdown that meant the game. After 360 minutes of bruising play there Isnt a wound on him. The worst Injury he had all year was a pair of red splotches on his shoulders, wound stripes earned when driving in against men pounds heavier. Ho Isnt Just a football player. A senior, his four years' average mark In the classrooms Is two percentage points higher than Is necessary to qualify for Phi Beta Kappa at Iowa university.

His majors In economica He Is a better basketball player than a football player, but refuses to go out for the Iowa cage squad. He says It would take him from his studies. Nile Klnnlck Is frightfully modest. When the townsfolk of Iowa City tore the precincts of that town apart after the Notre Dame and Minnesota victories, the hero wasnt there to see it done. He carefully sneaked out of town to avoid being lionized.

Iowa will tell you that there Is only one thing to prevent his being elected governor of the state at the next election. And that is that Iowa would hesitate to pay him such a slight honor. SPARTANS LICE FRESNO, Nov. 24. (U.RV- Foxy Grandpa Glenn Seobey Warner has lost none of his cunning.

The San Jose State college eleven of which he Is advisory coach had stamped Itself as one of the most potent minor league teams In the country today by handing the previously unbeaten, untied Fresno State Bulldogs a 42 to 7 lacing. The victory pave San Jose 812 points for Its 12-game season and boded ill for Drake university, which visits San Jose next Thursday night The Spartans, thru their lopsided victory, maintained an unblemished record, and have had only 27 points scored upon them. Fourteen thousand persons saw the Bulldogs and Spartans battle on fairly even terms for the first three quarters. Going Into the fourth period with the score 16 to 7 against them, the Bulldogs took long chances which only resulted In four more Spartan touchdowns. The only Fresno score came In the third period when Bob Peterson, Melvin Rourh and Jack Mulkey participated In an 85-yard run complete with laterals and a 50-yard 'gallop.

Splndley-legged LeRoy Zimmerman again marked himself as of All-American caliber when he aeored two touchdowrs, passed to a third and kicked an extra point. The fullback raced 19 yards for one score, Intercepted a pass and ran 25 yards for the second, passed to Clement for the third. Herman Zetterqulst, halfback, supplied another touchdown on a 14-yard pass from Cook: llubbell drove over from the two-yard line for the fifth, and an end, recovered a wild Fresno pass from center In the closing minute of play for the final acore. Staley contributed a second-period field goal front the 15-yard line. Fan Jose footers didn't wait for the final gun before Ciry swarmed ontosthe field to pull down the goal post.

A year ago, Toby was a challenger for Henry Armstrong's lightweight title, but an Injured band shelved him for a year. He came out of retirement to soundly defeat Baby Face Casanova In Mexico City and two week ago he licked Gene Mock at the Legion. George Blake, nationally known referee, is handling Vigil.

BID FOR TITLE CHICAGO. Nov. 24 (U.B On Ohio's power and the resourcefulness of Iowa's mighty handful of heroes will rest the fate of the Big Ten football championship tomorrow on the same two playing fields that figured In the pre-season reckoning eight weeks ago. All the experts predicted then the championship would be settled at Michigan and Northwestern on Nov. 25, but who could have foreseen that any but the Wolverines and Wildcats would be fighting for the title? These two bitterly disappointed September favorites, shorn of the pre-season glamour, now hope to console themselves with victories over the title teams and an obscure berth In the first division.

Northwestern meets Iowa at Evanston and Michigan will attempt to prevent Ohio State from gaining an undisputed championship at Ann Arbor. Eight weeks ago, Ohio State was no more than a darkhorse possibility. Iowa was slated for another burial In the second division. They clicked suddenly and clicked often. Ohio State now has won five In a row, while Iowa, miracle team of any year, owns four spectacular victories against a single defeat at Michigan.

The best Iowa can hope for is a share of the championship. Victory for the Buckeyes will give them their first undisputed crown since 1920. Ohio State, off Its seasons record, has an edge over Michigan. Injury to Fubback Jim Langhurst may hamper the Bucks attack early In the contest but reports from Columbus Indicated that Sophomore Fullback Johnny Halla-brln Is ready to roll. Don Scott's forward passing against Michigans weak pass defense which Includes Tornado Tom Harmon along with the others Is the danger.

Passing figures strongly at Northwestern, too. Three of Iowas fourth period victories came on forward passes by Nile Klnnlck. He'll be a marked man, but he always Is. Injury to Center Bruno Andruska may be costly to Iowa, which has no man to spare. Minnesota's power attack, which functioned perfectly for four periods against Michigan and three against Iowa, will attempt another 60 minute assignment altho Wisconsin always, until last fall, had saved its best brand of football for Minnesota.

The game will be played at Minneapolis. Other famous rivalries up for settlement this week are Purdue at Indiana for the old oaken bucket and Illinois at Chicago. In the old days, the Chieago-Illinois feud was one of the best. Now It's a breeze for the Illlnl, despite the warnings of Bob Zuppke, who fears the Maroons more than Stagg ever feared Purdue. Dean Muckel Winner In Flag Tourney; Two are Tied Pomonas Dean Muckel today became Pomona valley's most patriotic as well as most successful holiday golfer.

For the second consecutive time, Muckel drove and mashled his way to victory In a Los Serranos Country club flag tournament, putting his flag on the 19th green to cop first place in yesterday's Thanksgiving Day sweeps. Jim Ovlngton of Fomona was tied with Les Cavanaugh for sec- ond. Ovlngton scored 85-14 71 and Cavanaugh 77-7 70.

Chaffey Junior colleges Panthers remained undefeated for the season when by the narrow margin of one point, 14 to 13, they cuffed Idaho Southern Branch last night on the Ontario gridiron. Chaffey did all Its scoring In the first half, Kobe ShoJI scoring the first touchdown when he broke over center behind a wave of Panther Interference and ran 45 yards to the goal.

Hal Finney ended his Junior college career, started at San Bernardino and ended at Chaffey, by skirting end for 13 yards In the second quarter. Idaho Southern controlled the wit. nie 'Woffington, sub right halfback, did the scoring for the visitors, going 25 yards for a touchdown In the third quarter and 23 yards around end In the fourth. He missed the second conversion. Covina high school clinched the championship of the Fan Gabriel Valley league Thursday afternoon when the Colts defeated Monrovia, 38 to 0, In a turkey day conflict played on Monrovia field.

Dave Brewer, acclaimed one of the greatest of many grid greats at Covina, personally accounted for 20 of Covina's points. Pomona and Covina are slated to play Friday, at Pomona, but there Is a possibility that the Colt may ask the game be cancelled because of the Southern California Inter-scholastlc playoffs. Covina's sensational record makes them the outstanding prep team of the Southland, but ironically enough the C. I. F.

placed the San Gabriel league In Group 2 and in this group Covina would not play the top-notch prep teams, all allocated to Group 8 for the mythical southern section title. HARTFORD, Conn. a 1 Westenberg, 232. Tacoma, defeated Gus Sonnenberg, 212, Boston, two falls out of three. linois field at nearby Champaign, and the Irish here are digging in.

A year ago, on the coast, the Trojans defeated Notre Dame IS to 0 to spoil the first Irish chance for a perfect season since Rockne's all-conquering team of 1930. Now, a year later, the Californians come to South Bend with a chance for an unbeaten year. They come with practically the same eleven that rolled over all home opposition last year. Three deep In the key spots of the back-field, two deep In the line. Big.

fast, smart, resourceful. Southern California has no genuine weakness. It la a club so good that the men who earned it a 2100,000 victory over Duke In the Rose Bowl last New Tear's Day Doyle Nave and A1 Krueger are listed as second stringers. What has Notre Dame to throw agahist such a tidal wave of power? Well, there's the spirit of this school, for one thing. And there Is a dog tired, worn out eleven for another.

It Isnt possible for boys to play Purdue, Georgia Tech. Southern Methodist, Navy, Carnegie Tech, Army, Iowa and Northwestern on successive Saturdays and not get pretty weary. Not only weary, but banged up a bit. The two regular tackles, Tad Harvey and Tom Gallagher, are black and blue from haircut to heel, and their teammates, almost without exception, are frayed around the edges. But Notre Dame will show up, don't worry about that, and so will the second capacity crowd In the 10-year history of Notre Dame stadium.

The 56,000 seats have been peddled long ago, and 100,000 tickets would not have been more than enough to accommodate the requests. Today this town was filling up as trains and planes came In from all over the country. Tou couldn't get a hotel room for love or money, and the restaurants were dusting off the S. R. O.

signs. Against Southern Cal's offensive brilliance Notre Dame will throw a defense that has yielded but 826 yards to the combined rushing efforts of the eight tough opponents It has played since the start of the season. What Notre Dame will offer against the attack of Doyle Nave is not known. Notre Dame men are hoping It will be something different from the vulnerable aerial defenses the team has shown so far. In its own behalf Notre Dame Is expected to start a backfield of Sitko, Stevenson, ZontinI- and Thesing, and to keep its major threat.

Milt Plepul, In reserve. Piepul would start Instead of Thesing were It not for the fact that Notre Dame has a policy that calls for seniors In the starting lineup of the final game, and Thesing Is a last year man and Plepul has another year to go. Notre Dame's attack will move along the ground. The Irish have marched more than a mile In eight games, but have yet to 6how a scoring punch up close. ALUMNI TILT IS PROPOSED A Pomona group, attempting to organize a football game between alumni teams of Pomona and Chaffey high school, today called a meeting for 8 oclock Monday evening at the V.

F. W. hall on 2nd street, opposite Central park. A1 Gee, sponsoring the movement, said an effort would be made to stage the contest for the purpose of financing the purchase of water wagons for Chaffey and Pomona high and junior college football teams. Plans call for only ex-Chaffey and ex-Pomona high grrld-ders to be eligible for such a game.

An Ontario group already has consented to back the project. All those Interested, particularly former football players of Pomona high, are urged to attend Monday's meeting, Gee said. Civic Cagers Asked To Attend Meeting Sponsors, managers and players of civic basketball teams who would like to play In a league to be organized by the recreation department, are asked to meet with Earl Workman, city of Pomona director of recreation, at Washington park this evening. The meeting will begin at 7:30 oclock, It was announced.

Imprints of shoe cleats were found on his head. Cal Tech won the game, 13 to 7. GRID VICTORS Shirley Payne Scores for Eaglettes, Terry Kicks Goal for 7-6 Win Girls who should have been home helping mama with the Thanksgiving day dishes furnished Pomona's turkey day football festivities In the name of sweet charity here Thursday afternoon, and when the battle was over Pomona's Eaglettes were victorious, 7 to 6, over the Marshall-Clampltt Chevrolets of Los Angeles. The Pomona Eaglettes scored with 15 seconds to play In the first half when fleet Shirley Payne eluded hands clutching for her curls and ran seven yards for a touchdown. Lois Terry, shifting to the backfield from tackle, smashed over the line for the extra point.

The Chevvles scored in the fourth quarter when Nonie Hoehn toe danced for a score with three minutes left to play. Nonie tried to buck over for the extra point, but failed. The Chevrolet lassies, highly Indignant because they believed Nonie had made the point, nearly took Referee Stan Acres apart to see what made him tick. The best defensive player for the gridderettes was Lois Terry of the Eaglettes, nationally famous soft-ball pitcher, who was a riot at tackle. Her hair clutching feats were easily outstanding.

Offensively, the Chevrolets Louise Roberts, was the heroine. Pat Collins did some swellegent blocking for Louise. One play brought the fans to their feet In the third quarter when Andy Fay, 205 pound guard for the Eaglettes, went Into the No. 3 spot In the backfield. As the play started, Andy fell on her knees and A1 Berry jumped on Andys broad back and tossed a pass to Melita Forrester.

Melita spoiled It all by dropping the pigskin. The Eagles lodge sponsored the game. Proceeds go to the Eagles Christmas fund. Word came today that the Texas Redheads had challenged the Eaglettes for a game here sometime In the near future. HUSHES UPSET OREGON.

20-13 SEATTLE, Nov. 24. U.R Had Jay Graybeal been twins, the University of Oregon today might have boasted a win over Its traditional enemy, the University of Washington. But Jay is solo, so his frantic individual efforts availed him naught and the Huskies went on to beat Oregon 20 to 13 here yesterday, thereby taking the wolves off Jimmy Phelan's doorstoop. The wolves left for Palo Alto.

Graybeal, playing his final collegiate football game, went out In a burst of glory. Twice he put Oregon out In front only to see the lead dwindle. The third time he tied the score, but the final Husky touchdown found Jay just too tired to come back. He kicked two difficult field goals and scored a touchdown, running his scoring string to half the Oregon seasons total. Washington, after dropping Its first four games, came back with four wins in a row, and in the climax yesterday simply outclassed the Webfeet with a triple offense built around Dean McAdams, Jack Stackpool.

Ernie Fteele and Bill Marx. With McAdams perfect passing, the Huskies completed 12 to 20 attempts for 91 yards, while Stackpool and Fteele were running up the bulk of 130 yards in straight football. Oregon, mainly thru the efforts of Graybeal, totaled 205 yards for the afternoon. trail Roland, Dooley, Grant, Ewing, ICroph, Forrester, Yourg, Kegans, Bromley, Willard, Preskitt, Eugene Adams, Dickerson, Haydyn, Leman, Simpson, Henkle, Wilkinson.
