Conchs Taper Off Drills For Sanford Tilt Friday Zayott Slows Conchs Down As Tilt Nears The Key West High School football team will hold its final drill session to- day in preparation for its most ambitious start of the season Friday night against ® rough and tough Sanford eleven. And the Conch board of strategy is working overtime in an effort to instill a little fire into their charges to counteract the staleness re- q ch Clarifies Grid Schedule Key West High Schoo! Foot- ball Coach Ed Beckman said Tuesday that local gridiron fans who journey to Miami this . weekend fo witness the Miami High - Chattanooga clash wen’t be seeing the same team thet will meet the Conchs on Nov. v Key West will play Chattanoo- * ga High School while the Stin- garees will be battling the Chat- tanooga Central gridders. The team the Conchs are meeting represents the third largest school in the state of Tennessee. They aré actually stronger than Chattanooga Cen- tral, An idea of their compara- tive strength can be had by the fact that they own a 26 - 0 vic- tory over Cleveland's Bradley High Scheol while Chatta ry Central had to settle for a tie. ar Sailers Enjoy Deep-Sea Angling Here Sailors attached to the Naval Sta- tion, Key West, Florida enjoy the fishing through te telites ofthe fishing facilities Air Station’s Recreation Depart- ment.

Lou Little Says Purdue’s Win Wasn't An Upset NEW YORK w#—Football upsets sare not upsets at all, says Colum- | bia’s Coach Lou Little, who re- fuses to concede that the antipla- toon rule has proved the “great equalizer” of the autumn sport. “It's no upset. when Purdue scores 27 points on Notre Dame,” the beapectacled ringmaster of Morningside Heights said. “It’s no upset when South Carolina beats Army and Army beats Michigan. and a breakaway defeat into victory. think football games today are won by advantage of its opportunities and wins—but it’s not an upset unless the team is playing out of its class.” strong proponent of the unlimited , substitution rule, Little said this year’s all-star college game in Chicago proved that the one-platoon system is not ® leveler of strength. “The pros had to discard the unlimited substitution rule and play with the college restrictions,” he said. “This was supposed to make it a closer game. Instead, the pros (Detroit Lions) won 31-6. They could have won by twice as much.” Recruiti: ~ plug for the U. S.

THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Wednesday, October 6, 1954 K Sports NEW YORK (#—The Canadian football season has reached rough- ly its halfway point, and this seems a likely point at which to find out what the impact of the more skit- tish brand of ball played beyond the northern border has been on the great American television pub- lic, NBC, which has sent out six james and has six to go plus the regular playoffs, is highly pleased with the reaction, Its mail is aver- aging around 60 per cent of that of last season, when the network handled the NCAA’s college Game of the Week, the feature it is buck- ing now to-some extent with the Canadian version. “The figure is more impressive when you realize that we haven’t been asking for written comment the way we did last season,” said an NBC official. “We asked for it every game last year at our spon- sor’s request, but have mentioned it only twice from Canada.” While the thousands who have expressed an opinion have com- mended the network by a margin of 10-1 for providing the early Saturday afternoon entertainment, they have split widely on their liking for the Canadian game— that is, as compared with its American forebear. Who knows but what their reaction will result one day in bringing the two games more closely together? Indian Sale Rumored In CLEVELAND, (#—A Cleveland industrialist has been hinting at a deal pending for the sale of the Cleveland Indians, but the base- ball club management declares that no bona fide offer has been made. Joseph E. Cole, president of*the National Key Co., and a minor stockholder in the Indians, said yesterday he hads a “‘fine, civic- minded group of men” seeking to buy the Tribe, and he added, “I only hope the premature publicity will not kill things.” Cole continued: “These men are interested in im- proving Cleveland baseball and financial considerations are sec- ondary. If we are successful in ob- taining the team, I believe it will be good for the city and the In- dians.” The club’s president, Myron H. Wilson, issued a statement which he said came “‘as a result of the various rumors” about the pro- Posals, The statement read: “At no time have we ever at- tempted to secure any offers for the sale of the ball club. Further- more, we have never received a bona fide offer. At the present time our only interest is centered in improving the Indians for 1955.” Cole’s syndicate, it is. believed, is prepared to pay more than $3,000,000 or greater than $1,000 a share of stock. About two years ago, Ellis Ryan sold out to the Present Indians owners for $600 a share. The San Jose State (Calif.) basketball squad has lost only one an. Last season the Spar- tans lost six of their first eight men to armed services and in- juries. ‘ LEGAL NOTICES ———— IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF THE SIXTEENTH JUDICIAL CIRCUIT OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA, IN AND FOR MONROE COUNTY.

He also likes the Canadian rule which makes it mandatory to try to run the ball out when it is kicked into the end zone. He likes the rouge—the single point scored when the ball is kicked out of the end zone and which is largely responsible for the fact that there has not been a tie Score in the past 104 games played in the Canadian League. On the other hand, the Ameri- can fan isn’t so sure that he likes the three-down Canadian rule. Some do, but as many others com- Plain that it gives the attacking team much less freedom of action than our four downs do. They say the Canadian offense is too prone to settle into a run-pass-kick you- tine on each sequence of downs. What the American fan misses most is downfield blocking and blocking in front of the receiver of punts. They like to see the bail carrier get a chance for his life. They are not too keen on the Cana- dian system of penalizing a down for a rule infraction instead of stepping off yardage, as we do. Broadly, though, the average American set owner seems to be willing to go on watching the Canadian brand of football so long as it helps keep him away from autumn yard work. | Wisconsin, Rice Tilt Is TV Feature By JOE MOOSHIL CHICAGO — The Big Ten’s kick for regional television appears out of bounds these days.

Moegle is the same youngster whose runs so infuriated Alabama in the-Cotton Bowl last January that a 12th man got off the bench to tackle the Owl speedster when he was clear and away to a 95- yard touchdewn jaunt. Moegle hasn’t let up since. Against Rice victims Florida and |‘ Cornell this year, he has averaged 13.7 yards in 16 carries. The first four times he got his hands on the ball against Cornell, he swept for touchdown runs of 18, 40, 10 and 78 yards. Rice publicitor Bill Whitmore, telling the Chicago football writers about Moegle yesterday, brought out that Dicky was quite a player even before the bowl game. “He was sixth in rushing nation- ally last year with 833 yards,” said Whitmore. “‘Of course he was in the shadow of All America Kosse Johnson, our fullback last year. Johnson rushed for 944 yards but he had 73 more carries than Moegle.” Whitmore said he believes the Wisconsin game will be a matter of Rice offense against Wisconsin defense, qualifying that he wasn't selling the Badger offense short. Wisconsin’s answer, of course, is Ameche. But that’s not all. Badger quarterbacks Jim Miller and Jim Haluska are passing at a .760 clip this season. Weather worries a race track. The Yonkers, N.
