u g b y Bear Ruggers give their opponents a good workout at Cal ' s Memorial Stadium. ALTHOUGH beginning rather weakly, the California rugger eleven finished with a roar in second place in the newly organ- ized Northern California Rugby Union. Ex-gridders performed conspicuous roles in the rugby outfit. Hank Borghi, Jon Baker, Ron Cameron, Lucian Evans and Howard Peterson were standouts, the latter being the leading scorer. The Bears won the first tilt of the sea- son, 3 to 0, over the Albany Landing Forces Equipment Depot by virtue of Borghi ' s penalty kick from 25-yard out midway in the first half. But the next game saw the ruggers bow to the Treasure Island squad, 11 to 5, for its only setback of the season. After this contest the Bears registered nothing but victories for the remainder of the season. A return tilt with Treasure Island, which would have decided the undisputed posses- sion of the league ' s crown, was postponed twice by rain, and finally cancelled as the Bears ' rugby activities were called to a halt at the end of the academic term.

occer JULIUS SCHROEDER Coach COACH Schroeder ' s soccer outfit finished in third place in the strong San Francisco league although staging a surprise comeback that al- most carried it into the league leadership. California, whose ranks were predominantly of students from foreign countries, was de- feated in its first two games, but from then on it became a real threat. By late December the soccer team, resting in third place in the six-team league, began its terrific comeback, winning five clashes and climbing to within one-half game of first place. However, after losing three key players Kutay, Jones, and Aldrete when the fall term ended, the Varsity fell just as fast. The team dropped its last three tilts to end the season in third place behind the powerful American Athletic Club and the Barbarians. -- 228 TOP ROW: Gunnar Hensson, Ali Alireza, Joaquin Melendez, Fernando Walker.
