SAN -FRANCISCO, Dec. 13 (2P)----Lawrence T. (Buck) Shaw,
who" produced 71 victories against 39 defeats and four ties as the
only head coach the Sari Francisco 49ers have had in nine years of
professional football, was fired today by his dissatisfied owners
• They wanted a championship
In a low voice trembling with
bito, the majority owner of the
National Football League club,
told a hastily summoned press
conference
"Coach Buck Shaw's contract
expires in July, 1955. It will not
be renewed. He is relieved of his
duties as of this day."
Asked why, he added:
"He (Shaw) has been given 100
Per cent authority, not 99 per
cent, but 100. Four out of the
past five years, the 49ers have
either folded completely or lost
the big one. I think it's time we
tried something else."
The 49ers were rated of cham
pionship caliber before this sea
son began. They ran into a plague
of injuries to such key men as
halfback Hugh McElhenny. They
lost two thrillers in the last min
ute, to the Chicago Bears and
Baltimore Colts, by failure to de
fend against desperation passes:
They finally wound up with a
7-4-1 record and third place in
the NFL's Western Division.
