bored hard and long on the Spald
arrangements for Spaldng to play
tn the Rose Bowl on Jan. 1.
I talked with the Rose Bowl of
ficials Sunday morning and they
fold me frankly they’d like to have
the Wolfpack in the Tournament of
Roses. They said had Spalding won
by a single point or a single touch
down they'd have Invited the Wol
pack to Sunny California. They
said, however, that since Spaldirq

won 12 to 0 and made S0 yards
without ever touching the ball by
pushing Gainesville back to the
Gainesville 45 on defensive play s
lone they just couldn't invite the
Wolfpack.
They said that they couldn't find
any team in America, college or
high school, that would be a good
match for the Wolfpack after
Spalding had practiced until Jan. 1.
They said that Spalding would walk
away with any other 11 in the na
tion and ruin the Rose Bowl’s re
putation for close games. They
said they'd have to give the fans a
good game wad everyone wwM
know that if Spalding were playing
Spalding would win easily. Thus,
they figured, the gate would suffer.
However, my trip was not entire
