LOS ANGELES. Nov. 1.-Two
first-year football coaches, Chuck
Taylor of Stanford and Jess Hill
of Southern California. lead their
unbeaten titans into Memorial
Coliseum Saturday for a game
calculated to decide who will rep
resent the West in the Rose Bowl.
Both mentors are refreshingly
different from the morbid pessi-
nlists who characterize their pro-
fession. They believe they're 60
ing to win and they say so.
& Taylor at 81 is the youngest
head coach on the Coast and has
predicted victory before each of
Stanford's seven games this sea-
son. Hill, although not quite so
outspoken, has done the same.

have been billed as just another
football game.
To say that Hills Trojans are
unbeaten may not be technically
correct. but for all practical pur-
poses they are. The reserve team
lost a game to the Camp Pendle-
ton Marines on September 27 in
the first half of a double header

longer" a
Celler expressed his views in an
interview yesterday. He is chair
man of the House Judiciary Sub
committee on Monopoly.
Baseball is one of the finest
things in American life," he said
"But it is in danger. Legal opin-
ion in the past was that baseball
was not in commerce, but the
Federal Circuit Court of Appeals
held that it was. There is no
question that trading of players
like paWnS on a chessboard is in
violation of present antitrust
laws. If baseball is illegal then we
must prosecute the owners or
change the law"
Celler said it is possible for his
committee to draft a bill exempting
the game from provisions of the
laws.
