rebounds while playing about three quarters of the game He had plenty of help from senior guard Bobby Blanchard who put away 16 points all in the first half and running mate Jim Waldron who collected

some badly needed backing on the boards and Saturday night showed a deft touch around foe basket Each collected 10 points with Elrod making five of eight attempts and Musolff four of seven with two of

Football Excels Over UH Brand In Honolulu Collegiate football (University of Hawaii brand) plays second fiddle to high school gridball in Honolulu Thanksgiving Day in Honolulu Stadium was a Mg day for the preps in Honolulu Two games drew 23000 fans This is a tradition Two nights later the University of Hawaii and Fresno State attracted about 2500 fans Ail football comment was about the preps It was the talk of the town before and after University of Hawaii produced high class teams for years Several years ago the athletic department got into a rumpus and went to pot and football too and now they are trying to put the game back on its feet and doing a pretty good job The Roaring Rainbows came on fast foe last part of the season Islanders say the main reason for the lack of top university teams is that the colleges and universities on foe mainland lure the better prep players and records prove it There are at least two dozen on top university and college teams this season from the islands Clark Shaughnessy the one time Stanford University coach who put foe on foe map in this era with his fine Indian teams was top coach of foe Rainbows this year and he has been lauded for his work and staff have laid the foundation for a solid football system which if perpetuated will lead to a successful winning a spokesman for file football squad at UH said all he has instilled a new spirit in foe football team and indirectly on foe campus These have been acomplished under the most trying conditions He has had to work with part time coaches All comparable institutions have from five to seven fulltime coaches Ve have none These institutions offer 45 to 55 full scholarships totaling $100000 to $200000 for football alone We work with less than $23000 for all sports We also have the poorest training facilities in the country and the lowest football budget for comparable institutions Under these conditions Shaughnessy and his staff have performed miracles" A few days ago Andy Tong news editor of foe student newspaper Ka Leo at UH wrote that university should concentrate on rushy or soccer or some other more international After which Tong was harassed andor assailed physically by an erstwhile UH team quarterback and foe Incident drew front page news in Honolulu newspapers Personally we understand why with so many rich fnmmnnttien and people on foe islands that an outstanding football program be produced at UH Even though prep stars migrate to the mainland why someone create a budget sufficient to induce stars from foe mainland to Honolulu?
