UCLA run NCCU out of the Rose Bowl
By Dennis J. Freeman PASADENA
(News4usonline) – The passing game of the UCLA Bruins football team took a day off against North Carolina Central University.
Dante Moore and other UCLA quarterbacks had good reason to step back and take a breather.
THAT’S because the run game of the Bruins dominated the visiting Eagles all afternoon at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
UCLA rushed for 404 yards and six touchdowns as it cruised to a 59-7 win. The Bruins scored 35 points in the first quarter and made it 45-0 at the half. Anthony Adkins led the running rampage for UCLA, rushing for 96 yards on 10 carries as the Bruins improved their record to 3-0.
“He’s a big, physical back but he is very nifty on his feet,” UCLA head coach Chip Kelly said of Adkins. “I think that he has really good vision. I’m not sure we knew how athletic he was, when we got him. Obviously, he played in a different style of offense at Army, being the fullback in the wishbone, and just pounding it between the A gaps. But he’s got a little bit of side-to-side in him and I think he is tough to tackle. He runs with good body lean. I think he is con-
tinuing to develop.”
Adkins, who scored on a short touchdown run, had his biggest carry on a 38-yard run. Running the football and pushing the pile is something that the Bruins try to establish every game, he said.
“We pride ourselves on running hard, playing physical and playing aggressive every week, week in and week out,” remarked Adkins. “Doing our jobs, we take the load off the quarterback a little bit, and we pride ourselves on that.”
That pride will be put to the test against the Utah Utes in a Sept. 23 matchup for the Bruins. Utah is the reigning two-time Pac-12 Conference champion. For now, though, Kelly likes the way his team has progressed in the last three
weeks. The win against North Carolina Central University
“The one thing I was impressed with, with our team, was just their approach,” Kelly said. “They had a great week of training and a great week of practice. I think that’s a sign of maturity. They are focused on getting better on a daily basis and that is something that we preach, but it’s not always followed.
“We understand that. But I do think it was followed this week. These guys went out this week, Sunday through Wednesday, of trying to get better as football players. There’s a standard that we train at. We have continued to train better each week.”
Moore seems to be making the right progress that Kelly needs out of his quarterback possession. Against North Carolina Central University, Moore completed just 8 of 12 passes for 182 yards and two touchdowns. Kelly said there’s still plenty of room for Moore to grow.
“I think we can improve with decision making, timing, just like anybody,” Kelly quipped. “It doesn’t matter who it is. And I think that he’s played really, really well. We are just still starting with
him. And pre-snap recognition, where the ball is going, and he’s really good at it, but he’ll continue to work on the fundamentals and the decision-making process.”
Through the first three weeks of the season, the Bruins have coasted to double-digit wins over Coastal Carolina, San Diego State, and North Carolina Central University. The real test for the Bruins begins with their first Pac-12 Conference game against Utah.
After playing the Utes, UCLA will play a home game against Washington State (Oct. 7), go on the road against Oregon State (Oct. 14) and Stanford (Oct. 21) before ending the month of October with a primetime contest against Colorado (Oct. 28) at the Rose Bowl.
It doesn’t concern UCLA defensive lineman Dovid Magna who the Bruins play next. They’re ready to play regardless of the opponent or the venue, he said.
“I don’t think it matters who’s up next,” Magna said. “We pride ourselves on being ready for whatever opponent we have, whether it’s home or away. Whoever it is, we’ll be ready for them come Saturday and it will be a great game.”

running throughout Compton as an issue of urgent matter as well.
“I’m going to start looking at our street assessment,” Thomas said previously. “In the past, in places I’ve been when I look at a street assessment, I don’t politicize it. I focus in on the streets that are the worst and then fair and then good. I focus on the worst streets first. I focus my dollars on that first. Infrastructure-wise, street repairs will definitely be a top priority for me.”
After Thomas’ short tenure with the city, filling potholes and street repairs remain an issue for Compton. So does other issues like replacing the eyesore of abandoned buildings and property not used.
A new city manager could help in addressing those woes. Right now, the city has Jerry Groomes as the interim city manager.
Groomes is basically serving as a stopgap band-aid for the city as it moves away Thomas to a new permanent choice. The council voted to pay Ralph Andersen & Associates $35,000 to find the right person for the city manager’s position.
The idea of having the same company that brought them Thomas was met with some trepidation by councilmembers Andre Spicer (District 2) and Lillie Darden (District 4). Despite the momentary hiccup, the council voted unanimously to use the company in its nationwide recruitment efforts.
According to the proposal submitted, Ralph Andersen & Associates are in the top tier of companies that successfully places individuals in city manager positions.
In its proposal, Ralph Andersen & Associates boasts of placing more successful recruits in city managerial positions than any other company in California since 1972.
Some of the local municipalities where Ralph Andersen & Associates have successfully placed a city manager include Artesia (2022), El Segundo (2022), Huntington Beach (2022), Orange (2022), Los Altos (2021), Riverside (2022), Santa Monica (2021), and Palos Verdes Estates (2023).
The $35,000 paid to Ralph Andersen & Associates for its recruitment of candidates does not include travel. That bill is on the city. The entire recruitment process is expected to last from 90 to 120 days, according to the proposal set forth by Ralph Andersen & associates.

On August 8, 2001, the same neighborhood experienced five separate drive-by shootings that tragically resulted in the unintended double homicide of twoyear-old Kali Murphy and her 25-year-old father, Stephen Murphy. These shootings appeared to be acts of retaliation for the murder of Richard Lawrence the previous night.
The first shooting occurred at 13332 Largo Ave, where a male Hispanic adult victim sustained non-life-threatening gunshot wounds to the head and shoulder area. The second shooting took place at 2318 Lucien Street, fortunately without any injuries to the public. However, the violence continued with a third shooting at 13130 Willowbrook Ave. It was here that Stephen and Kali Murphy lost their lives to gunshot wounds to their heads.

Finally, the fifth and final shooting occurred at 1907 North Anzac Avenue, where a Compton deputy sheriff was targeted but was unharmed. The suspect vehicle used in all five shootings was a gold Oldsmobile Cutlass, which deputies seized shortly after the shootings.
The double homicide of Stephen and Kali Murphy was believed to be linked to a local black gang, and witnesses from that fateful night provided descriptions of two male black suspects involved. We have included artist renditions of these suspects based on witness descriptions. Witnesses also mentioned a follow vehicle that trailed behind the gold Oldsmobile Cutlass during the shootings. The vehicle depicted is not the actual vehicle but is similar to the one used that night. Both the Richard Lawrence and Stephen and Kali Murphy cases were thoroughly investigated in 2001, but unfortunately, no arrests were made, and the cases went cold. In 2019, at the request of family members, both cases
were reviewed by the Homicide Bureau's Unsolved Unit, and the decision was made to reactivate the investigations. This decision was primarily driven by advancements in DNA technology that were not available in 2001.
During the ongoing investigation, significant progress has been achieved in both cases, providing hope that those responsible for these heinous murders will finally be identified and brought to justice.
This progress includes information obtained from individuals with knowledge about these cases, as well as the forthcoming results of current DNA testing, expected to be completed in the very near future.
Anyone with information about this incident is encouraged to contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Homicide Bureau Unsolved Unit at (323) 890-5500.

sible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, (cashier's check(s) must be made payable to National Default Servicing Corporation), drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state; will be held by the duly appointed trustee as shown below, of all right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below.

The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common
designation, if any, shown above. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.
The requirements of California Civil Code Section 2923.5(b)/2923.55(c) were fulfilled when the Notice of Default was recorded. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 714-730-2727 or visit this internet website www.ndscorp. com/sales, using the file number assigned to this case 22-20872-SPCA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE
TO TENANT*: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are a "representative of all eligible tenant buyers" you may be able to purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an "eligible bidder," you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 888-264-4010, or visit this internet website www.ndscorp.com, using the file number assigned to this case 22-20872-SPCA to find the date on which the trustee's sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of
intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee's sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee's sale. If you think you may qualify as a "representative of all eligible tenant buyers" or "eligible bidder," you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. *Pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code, the potential rights described herein shall apply only to public auctions taking place on or after January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2025, unless later extended.
