At 1 o'clock, L.A. City teams Birmingham and Washington hook up.

There are Southern Section vs. L.A. City tussles in the next two games when West Torrance plays Fremont at 2 and L.B. Jordan takes on Dorsey at 3.

Pasadena and Campbell play at 4 o'clock, with Leuzinger facing Cleveland at 5.

And, in what could be the day's best matchup, Ocean View plays Taft at 6.

Leuzinger is located at 4118 Rosecrans Ave. in Lawndale.

Look for all of the BIW charts (first, second and third teams, plus honorable mention and a list of the names of every player who received a vote), a BIW ''news" story; a BIW column and a BIW notebook.

I think you'll find it informative.

Gahr, Downey, Lynwood and Dominguez -- all at 2-2 -- are all in contention for the final two playoff spots going into the final week of regular season play.

Norwalk vs. Mayfair will determine second- and third-place in the Suburban League.

The Moore League playoff representation is relatively clear cut:

If Lakewood beats Wilson, the Lancers finish unbeaten and the No. 1 seed in the league.

Couple that scenario with a Poly win at Compton (no gimme, considering the Jackrabbits' struggles most of the league play) and Lakewood is the top seed, Poly No. 3, Wilson No. 3 and Millikan No. 4 when the Pac-5 bracket is unveiled on Nov. 15.

In the Sunset League, Los Alamitos will need a win over Fountain Valley at Veterans Stadium next Friday night to finish 3-2 --- which would likely set up a three-way tie for second (and third and fourth). Coin flips would break the ties and designate the No. 2 and 3 seeds (behind top seed Edison) in that scenario. Fountain Valley (would be 8-2) and Los Alamitos (would be 8-2) would have a better shot at the at-large bid in eventuality than would Newport Harbor (6-4).

As for St. John Bosco (2-2), a win over Mater Dei at home Friday night would gives the Braves outright possession of third place in the Trinity League and give the Braves a spot in the Pac-5 playoffs as the league's No. 3 representative.

Jesse Callier has scored all four of Warren's TDs, carrying 26 times for 187 yards.

Casey Nielsen has tossed two TD passes for Gahr, completing 15 of 26 passes for 206 yards and a couple of touchdowns.

"He's a legit 6-foot-8, weighs about 230 pounds, is a great kid who is a hard worker and easy to coach. He has as bright a future as anyone in our program."

First off, the results of the media poll, with my comments:
1. Cal (obvious choice to win it)
2. Washington (solid pick in this spot)
3. UCLA (could win conference, if nine frosh/sophs come through)
4. Arizona (Sean Miller was a great hire)
5. Oregon State (won't surprise anyone this season)
6. Oregon (hard to figure)
7. Arizona State (yes, Sun Devils will miss James Harden significantly)
8. Washington State (could be better than this projection)
9. USC (ditto the WSU comment)
10. Stanford (Landry Fields will get up a lot of shots and maybe lead conference in scoring).

Here's the deal: There is now a rule within California (in which place for several years) in which a high school athlete, going into his sophomore year, can transfer high schools have immediate varsity eligibility at the new school without a change of residence.

I can't recall a more stunning Moore League score than the 35-34 that gave Millikan its double-overtime victory over Poly since the 15-13 score that gave the Rams' their last victory over the Jackrabbits -- in a Moore League finale in 1985 that handed the eventual Southern Section Big Five (as it was called then) co-champion its first defeat of the season.

Props to Millikan's Kirk Diego (as well-liked and respected as any coach in the area) and his Rams for the victory that pushed them to 6-2 and put them solidly in position for a berth in the Southern Section playoffs.

I don't know all the details but I read in Bob Keisser's early story that the Jackrabbits committed 19 penalties and had a significant number of turnovers.

Not to take anything away from Millikan's effort, but that sounds like the Jackrabbits -- who had a bye last week after their defeat to Lakewood -- either weren't mentally or physically ready to give the kind of performance needed to start a new winning streak Friday.

Suddenly, the Jackrabbits -- at 2-5 overall and 1-2 in Moore League -- find their playoff hopes sliding close to the precarious side.

Four Moore League games (at Wilson next Friday; at home to Cabrillo; and on the road to Compton) remain for Poly. The Jackrabbits have to win two their streak of not missing the playoffs since 1979 will be snapped.

Of course, this has been a season for streak-snapping for Poly opponents . . .

Two of next Friday's Moore clashes (Poly at Wilson and Millikan at Lakewood) are now among the most significant games in the Southland next week.

Thoughts on other games:

*Warren outscored Lynwood 28-0 in the second quarter to spark a 38-21 victory over Lynwood.

The Bears' Jesse Callier is the best high school running back I've seen this season but I'm not sure Warren's defense -- burned by Lynwood's quickness at times -- is quite stout enough to win four Southern Section Western Division playoff games.

*Norwalk (60-8 over Cerritos) and La Mirada (42-12 over Mayfair) sure set the table very nicely Friday night for their Suburban League showdown at Excelsior Stadium next Friday evening, didn't they?

*Servite snapped its mega losing streak (since 1988) to Mater Dei Friday night at Santa Ana Stadium by stopping the Monarchs, 30-20, in a Trinity League game. Like I said with Lakewood knocking off Poly a few weeks ago: If the Friars couldn't beat Mater Dei this season with the Friars clearly having the most gifted team, maybe it was never going to happen again.

Apparently Lagarde's family, during a meet in the Southern Section office in Los Alamitos, produced the necessary documentation to that he and his family had made a residential move (from Torrance to Rossmoor) and granted his eligibility with Coach John Barnes' program.

Lagarde made his varsity debut with the Griffins Thursday night, throwing for 195 yards (on 10 completions in 21 attempts) and running for two scores while playing approximately 3 1/2 quarters of an eventual 52-0 Sunset League victory over Marina at Westminster High.

The Griffins face unbeaten and top-ranked (in the Pac-5 Division) Edison Friday night at Huntington Beach High.

Thinks are going to be considerably tougher for the Griffins next Friday night, when they play top-ranked Edison at Huntington Beach High.

Oops . . . officials still have signaled for a running clock! Ouch!

The Griffins' starting quarterback during the team's 5-1 start, senior Dylan Cook, quit the team on Tuesday.
