Friday. Sept. 25. 1953 University Daily Kansan Page 5 Jayhawks to Meet Stiff Air Attack By DON TICE Daily Kansan Sports Editor Coach J. V. Sikes' young but eager Jayhawkers will meet a severe test for their as yet untried pass defense tonight when they meet powerful UCLA at Los Angeles. The game last Saturday didn't give an indication of the state of the Kansas pass defense, as TCU tried only two passes and didn't complete either one. It will be a different picture tonight as the UCLANs appear to be one of the top passing teams in the nation. Coach Red Sanders' Bruins will feature the passing of Paul Cameron and Primo Villanueva, who tossed UCLA to a 41-0 victory last week over Oregon State. Probable Starters Coach Sikes' chief worry in practice this week was trying to get some scoring punch into the Jay- U.C.L.A. (1-0) POS. KANSAS (0-1) Loudd (202) LE. Kay (191) Elena (212) LT.

U.C.L.A. average team weight 184; Kansas average team weight 191. line weight 198, backfelt hawk running attack. Things aren't made any easier for the Kansas mentor by the fact that halfback Frank Cindrich isn't making the trip because of a knee injury sustained in last week's game. There is a good chance that Al Jaso, as yet untried in varsity competition, will get the starting nod at quarterback over last week's starter, John McFarland, from Farell. Hopefully, McFarland will add the passing punch needed to go with the Jayhawk ground attack. As far as line play is concerned, the Bruins can expect a little stiffer competition than they received from the Oregon State line last week. Two men that play most closely with the Bruins' hashes have 235-point tackle Bud Bixler and all-American candidate right guard Bob Hantla. UCLA will be out to win an impressive victory over the Jayhawkers if they can in order to uphold their national prestige. Picked as the fourth ranking team in the nation, the Bruins are being given a two and three touchdown edge over Kansas in tonight's game. 3 Cameron Passes Go for Bruin TDs UCLA attempted 16 passes last week against Oregon State, completed but four, but three of those four went for touchdowns. All three scoring aerials were heaved by Paul Cameron, all-American tailback who lettered last year as a first-stringer. Another fact is that, although the Bruins tromped their nothern rivals, they led 27-0 at the half. Coach Red Sanders then withdrew his first liners and let the third and fourth outfits go it most of the second half, and all they scored was 14 more points. Giant clams on the barrier reefs off Australia commonly reach 35 feet in length and weigh almost 400 pounds. Blues Blast Sox To Stretch Lead Kansas City won the second game of the finals last night by a score of 9-8, in a wild, free-swinging affair that saw the score tied five times and seven homers knocked out of the park. The Kansas City Blues held an impressive, two-game margin over the Toledo Sox in the final American Association playoffs today as the two teams prepared to clash tonight for the third time in the series. Cerv's first homer in the second gave the Blues a 1-10 lead, but Queen retaliated with his four baggings and half of the inning to even the score. The Sox came back with a three-run rally in the eighth, making it 8-7 favor the Sox before the ninth-inning blow up. Some 6,100 spectators saw the Sox fall apart in the ninth inning with three of their five errors for the evening being committed in that frame by shortstop Billy Klaus. They afforded the tying and winning runs. Backfield Blocking Stressed The Blues tagged four Toledo pitchers for 14 hits. While the Sox grabbed 12 safeties off three Kansas City hurlers. Bob Cerv and Forest Smith each hit two homers for the Blues, while Toledo round trippers were bagged by Billy Queen, Jim Solt and Sam Jethroe. Jethroe's blow came in the eighth with one on and put the Sox in the lead, 8-7. It was his 30th home run of the season.

It was his 24th homer of the year. Ames, Ia. —(UP) —Coach Abe Stuber drilled his Iowa State Cyclones on blocking for the passer and kicker and passing offense and defense yesterday, as the team prepared for its Saturday clash with Northwestern. Stuber named quarterback Bill Plantan and center Jim Rawley co-captains for the game. Marciano Still Ring Champ; Scores TKO Over LaStarza World Heavyweight champion Rocky Marciano, although looking very bad at times, poured on the brute force to stop game challenger Roland LaStarza on a technical knockout in 1:31 of the eleventh round last night at the Polo grounds in New York. A big crow of 40,000 persons booed the champion at times as referee Ruby Goldstein had to caution him several times against low blows, butting, and swinging on the breaks. But that same crowd gave him a rousing ovation as he came back strong in the later rounds to overpower the high-stepping LaStarza and beat him into submission. Sliced around both eyes and bleeding from a cut on the bridge of his nose, the well-battered La-Starza took a tremendous beating in the last five rounds before Referee Goldstein wisely stopped the slaughter. At times earlier in the fight, La-Starza made the champion look like an amateur, as he flailed and floundered around, missing most of his wild punches. Even in the tenth round Marciano was punishing so wildly that he slipped and fell to the canvas in the challenger's corner. Marciano finally connected with a stunning right-left-right barrage to the head early in the eleventh round, knocking LaStarza through the ropes and out onto the apron. LaStarza gamely climbed back into the ring at the count of nine, but the champion backed him into a corner and was cutting him to pieces when the referee wisely stopped the fight. There was a big difference, as Rocky found, between the young LaStarza and Walcott, whose reflexes were slowing badly with age. Marciano defeated Walcott, just a day ago for the championship. An official had Marciano leading at the finish. Judge Harold Barnes saw it 5-5 at the end of 10, but he had Rocky ahead on points 10-5. Judge Arthur Susskind had Marciano out front 6-4 and Referee Goldstein saw the champ leading 7-3. One of the rounds he lost was on a low blow in the sixth round. There was no home television or authorized blow-by-blow radio account of the heavyweight title bout, first in New York in two and one-half years. Big crowds watched the fight on theater television in forty-five theaters in thirty-four cities from coast to coast. Cats Fly to Ft. Collins Manhattan—(U.P.)—Kansas State's Wildcat football team took off by plane for Fort Collins, Colo., today for its clash with Colorado A&M toorrow. Coach Bill Meek took along a 37 man squad, but left at home ends Ed Pence and Ed Linta and Quarterback Jack Chilton, all first stringers out with injuries. Tarkio Wins 7 to 6 Over Culver-Stockton Canton, Mo. — (UOP)— Tarkio college defeated Culver-Stockton college 7-6 in a Missouri College Athletic Union conference game here last night. Tarkio scored in the first period on a 67-vard punt return by freshman halfback Max Dougherty. Full-back Dale Blakeway converted from placement. Culver-Stockton tallied in the final six minutes of play on a 42-yard pass from quarterback Gene Inman to end Norman West. Statistics Show UCLA as Tops Why is UCLA rated one of the nation's top football outfits? Last season the UCLAns limited their opposition to 91.4 yards per game rushing and a total of 55 points in 10 encounters. Only two teams, Stanford and USC were able to count as many as fourteen points, and in the Rose Bowl, Wisconsin was downed 20-7. TV Report Mistaken Against Oregon State last weekend, the Bruins' rugged led, led by Chuck Dowd and Jack Ellena, both all-coast tackles in '52, and Mike Berlinger, all-PCC end, held the Staters to 79 yards on the ground and 65 on passes.
