Lanky Kid Beats Up On Irish

CHICAGO, Oct. 15IR-It will be long time before Notre Danes Frank Leahy forgets lanky kid who wears No. Al for Southern Methodist's football team.
 That Mo- AT, 6-foot, 3-inch Fred Bonners, reduced Notre Dame to defensive helplessness with a phe- nomenal passing demonstration in SINUS scorching 27-20 win over the Irish Saturday.
 Shooting fish in a barrel seemed no easier than Benner's connecting, long, short. wide or down the mid dle, against the bewildered Irish, at South Bend, Ind.
 Benners' feat of g compilations in A tries for 336 yards and four touchdowns wasn't his best average. Against Ohio State this season, he connected on 21 out of 29.

Move Made 10 Keep Texas Demos
 From Boiling

AUSTIN, Tex, Oct. 15-tR-Texas Democrats friendly to President Truman have organized for a fight to make sure the Lone Star State stays in the Democratic column in 1852
 They heard words of encourage ment from Secretary of Agriculture Charles F. Grammar who praised them for being stubborn" in their belief that the Democratic party stands for principles that fill the peoples needs.
 The loyalist Democrats named Walter G. Hall of Dickinson per- manent state chairman and em- powered him to set up an organi- zation which will promote plan to send Texas delegation to the na- tional convention at Chicago ln- structed - and not uninstructed as suggested by Gov. Allan Shivers.
 Shivers, the titular head of the party, was invited to the breakfast but he flew to the Texas-Oklahoma football game at Dallas.
 The breakfast was called after Shivers publicly expressed prefer ence for an uninstructed delegation from Texas to next years Presi- dential convention. Sources close to state party leaders have lndl- cated they will carry on a last-ditcn fight against Truman within the party but will not bolt the party.

Upsets in
 Grid Games Al Weekend
By RIP WATSON

NEW YORK, Oct 15-,R-Foot- ball coaches used to say that a good offense is the best defense, but that old saw doesn't seem to cut much wood in 1851 college football.
 Five major college teams scored three touchdowns and still lost Sat- urday. Washington State even lost after scoring five times in wild 42-35 scramble won by California. In fact, a survey of 37 major college games showed a majority of the losing teams scored at least two touchdowns. Only three of the games ended in shutouts for the losers.
 When all the figures were com piled, it was hard to see who would lead the parade in the Associated Press weekly poll of the nations top ten teams.
 Tough for M. s.
 Michigan State, ranked first last week just ahead of California, like California had a tough time in what figured to be an easy game and barely got past Marquette, 20-14 The powerful Spartans, ap- parently suffering letdown from their big game with Ohio State a week previous, trailed 14-6 in the fourth period, but managed to score twice, largely due to the passing of quarterback Al Dorow.
 The No. and 4 teams, Tennessee and Texas A. and M, romped to easy wins, and Notre Dame was up- set by Southern Methodist, 27-20.
 Since most of the second five turned in strong wins, it's probable the standings will be greatly shuf- fled when all the votes are in this week. sa3ifesa ~

 Texas, No. 6. edged Oklahoma, 9-7, breaking a three-year Sooner streak over the Longhorns; Illinois, No. T, toyed with Syracuse, 41-20; Georgia Tech.

Ohio State, No. g, had it's second disap- pointing Saturday in row and was happy to come off with a 6-6 tia opainst Wisconsin
 The Southwest came off with most of the glory in the intersec- tional competition on victories by Southern Methodist, Texas and Rice, a 21-14 winner over Navy.

No Unbeafen North Division Teams Left in Coast Play; But Rose Bowl Sill Open
By the Associated Press

Oregon State, last of the unbeaten Northern Division teams in Pacific Coast conference play, tumbled from the ranks of the select Saturday with a narrow 16-14 loss to South ern California.
 But the days grid wars still left the Beavers and Washington Huskies in the theoretical running for Rose Bowl berth.
 Although each has lost a confer ence game, California teams in the race have some tough battles ahead. California 0-0) isn't eligible to return to the Rose Bowl and next Saturdays meeting of the Bears with Southern California (3-0) could dim Trojan hopes. use also must still meet Stanford, sport ing a 20 record
 Stanford, on the other hand, has to get by Washington, Washington State, Oregon State and California as well as the Trojans.

WSC Holds Cal

Washington State showed Satur- day it's no soft touch by holding California to a 42-35 score. Wash ington can't be counted out after trimming Oregon 63-6, the worst licking the Huskies ever handed their traditional rivals.
 Meanwhile, Idaho defeated Mon- tana 1929 in a conference game and Stanford whipped 'UCLA 21-7.
 The big surprise of the day was the scare that Washington State threw into the mighty California Bears. The Cougars led the Bears at 14-7 and 21-14 and held them to 2121 standoff at halftime.

The Golden Bears, led by Johnny Olszewski, exploded in the third quarter for three touchdowns and, leading 42-21 made it look like typical California walkaway. But the unabashed Cougars came right back with CT and 37 yard marches to score two touchdowns and keep the Bears in a tizzy
 On the final play. WSC's Bud Roffler pitched a desperation pass which end Ed Barker touched on the 13 but couldn't hold.
 The score might have been a little different for California, too, had not one play been called back for an offside penalty In that case, John Pappa sprinted 82 yards for the no-count touchdown.

Boner Spills OSC
 The strange gamble was this leading 14-13 and with the count fourth down and 10 to go, Oregon State Fullback Sam Baker pre- pared to punt from his 26. Instead he ran and piled up against Trojans who took over oif the OSC 23. Five plays later, from the OSC five uses Frank Clifford booted over the winning field goal.
 OSC Coach Kip Taylor accepted responsibility for the gamble, say ing he ordered the play from the bench. We just gambled and lost, he said. But Baker said afterward Tt was my fault; I should have punted" Last year on similar play against Oregon, Baker went 60 yards.
 Washington didn't need its vaunted passing attack and ever star fullback Hugh McElhenny got in a lot of rest as the Huskies rolled to their biggest victory over Oregon in the 51 years of their football rivalry.

facilities are already strained on
several nights of the week. The
whole question of need for a good
Center program has gone far be-
yond the proving stage.
There has been such ready ac-
ceptance of Center program that
even though the Center program
brochure has not yet been pub
llshed lit will be out in another
few days, certain activities are al
ready under way. Among the
youth groups there is great salts
faction with the new facilities and
an acceptance also of the principal
of self-support in the form of men,
bership dues. Given any sort of
help to get started from the gen.
eral community, there is no rea-
son why Phoenix could not have
one of the outstanding Centers in
the Southwest.
Meanwhile Ben Ellis Member
ship Committee is busy contracting
men for memberships in the $25
and over category. It is to be
hoped that community leaders will
recognize the potential of the Cen
ter for consolidating the Jewish
Community and will give their sup
port even though those leaders
might not individually use the
Center facilities.
READERS OF THE PHOENIX
JEWISH NEWS will note with in
terest the QUESTIONABLE which oc-
cupies a prominent place in this
issue. If there is anyone in the
community who is dissatisfied with
things as they are relative to the
United Jewish Welfare Fund or
any of the agencies it supports, the
QUESTIONABLE gives them the op-
portunity to criticize and suggest
anonymously.
The QUESTIONABLE is device sug-
gested by Council Prexy Newton
Rosenzweig who believes that there
are people in this community who
do not give enough or do not give
at all to the campaign only be-
cause they do not like some of the
agencies on the Fund ALLEGATION
list. This writer disagrees with
that thesis. 1t is my firm convic-
ton that people who do not give
enough or who do not give at all
just don't like to give, period. One
excuse for not giving is as good
as any other. / predict that the
poor giver and the non-giver will
refrain from sending in a COM
pleted questionnaire for the sim
pie reason that such people are
just not interested in giving under
any consideration.
One of the by-products of the

would be the intellectual and emo
tional experience it was. His lit
terary style, his poetic figures of
speech, the dramatic moments he
described so eloquently-all these
have been discussed in the most
glowing terms by all who heard
him.
AS for his "encores" - those
priceless Sholom Aleichem stories
he related so superbly and so gem
erously-these have surely been
told and retold throughout the city
since his visit here.
But his very special appeal for
me lay in another direction. Here
was an established scholar and
writer who had forsaken the pleas
ures and comforts of life which
might now be his, for the rigors of
one-night stands all across the
United States, to help sell bonds
for the Israel government.
Only a dedicated heart could
stand the strain. Only a soul sha-
ken by the tragedies of the Jewish
past and devoted to the righting of
historic wrongs, could carry out
such a mission.

the Jewish future which remained

implementing of it's policy of nom
sectarianism and of equal oppor-
tunity for all, has caught the fancy
of Americans of every faith. It's
democratic, and it works!
The Journal of the Military Or
der of the Purple Heart-of all
publications-tells the story of
Jacob Gilbert, son-in-law of the
late Justice Brandeis, who was
talking to blind girl studying at
the university. He told her of the
accomplishments of DR.. Robert A.
Thornton, head of the physics de-
partment, and pronounced him one
of the country's top Negro scien-
lists.
"I've been attending DR.. Thorn
tons classes for month"; the girl
declared. "This is the first l heard
he was a Negro"
The Military Order of the Purple
Heart likes the good old American
tradition of equality and brother
hood which Brandeis has adopted
as its own. So will Americans ev-
erywhere. No wonder that this

whose birth he said was not a
miracle in the accepted sense, but
the result of the will and toll of a
generation of Jews. "a land neg
lected and a people oppressed"
were brought together, intimacy
was renewed between the people
and the soil," and a nation was
born. 1t was to be our privilege,
though far from the scene, to help
nourish the infant nation-the Mid
die East's first democracy-by in
vesting in her future.
"Make part of your wealth CO.

he urged.
Maurice Samuel, student of
Jewish history, had this to say
about our lives as American Jews:
Redemption for US consists in
learning to think of the Jewish
people as a free people, After
all the centuries of being subject
to the whims of this European
ruler or that, we are today, both
in America and in Israel, a people
able to exercise measure of con-
troll over our destiny.
Mr.. Samuel does not question
whether or not we will exercise it
wisely. His faith in us and his
hope for our future were the heart
warming highlights of an unfor-
gettable encounter between Mau-
rice Samuel and the Jewish COM
munity of Phoenix.
