TUESDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 26, 1943. HANFORD MORNING JOURNAL-HANFORD, CALIFORNIA. PAGE FIVE Rose Bowl Bid Expected for Those Trojans By Ed Emery San Francisco, Oct. 25 (UP)A bowl of roses appeared in the offing today for the University of Southern California Trojans after their 6 6-0 win over Amos Alonzo Stagg's valiant College of the Pacific Tigers Saturday before a recwestern crowd of 65,000. Victory over University California next Saturday in return engagement at Los Angeles would clinch the Pacific Coast Conference southern division championship for Coach Jeff Cravath's unscored-on Thundering Herd.

USC defeated the Bears earlier in the season, and California was buried under 39-0 avalanche Saturday by St. Mary's Pre-Flight to further boost Trojan stock. The only other undefeated team on the coast, the University of Washington Huskies, kept alive its Bowl hopes by whipping the previously unbeaten Fourth Air Force Flyers from March Field, 27-7 at Seattle Saturday. The Huskies have no other major game scheduled, however, and cannot challenge USC for the conference crown because of a 48-hour ruling limiting travel of navy and marine cadets. Sunday, St.

Mary's College turns to the gridiron against the University of San Francisco Dons at Kezar, and the Alameda Coast Guard meets Nevada Reno Air Base at Reno. Trojan speed and Pacific's bad luck combined to end 81-year-old Stagg's dream of a championship season in his 54th year of coaching. Two quick passes by USC's great halfback Mickey McCardle to end Ralph Heywood and back Eddie Saenz moved the Trojans from their own 32 to the COP 26 in the final quarter. Then George Callanan whipped a pass to his brother on the five and USC had the only score of the game. Del Monte Navy Whips Dons, 34-0 San Francisco, Oct.

New York-Post-war reconstruction can be made easier if the Allies forever shun the malicious tactics of the Nazis and revengeful actions while concentrating on military objectives and the punishment of Axis leaders responsible for the disastrous conflict, Archbishop Spellman declares in a cur rent weekly. The New York Archbishop tells of a lengthy conference with Prime Minister Churchill who, he asserts, "believes that Almighty God has saved England in several critical situations."
