Vols Decided Long
Ago On Orange Bowl
8
By JOHN ROSS
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (UPD—
As far as the players were con
cerned, it has always been the
Orange Bowl for second-ranked
Tennessee.
Coach Doug Dickey said, aft
er the announcement that Ten
nessee and Oklahoma will meet
in the Miami classic the night
of Jan. 1, that the players had
long ago decided.
“We asked the players what
they would like to do,” Dickey
said. “They said first they
would like to go to the Orange
Bowl.”
The invitation was Issued to
day by William C. Lanteff,
president of the Orange Bowl
Committee. Dr. Andrew Holt,
president of the University of
Tennessee, accepted for the
Vols.
"I would like to look sur
prised,” said Holt. “The coach
es and players just told me that
they have had their minds
made up since the beginning of
the season.”
In a telephone hookup with
Oklahoma University, the long
expected announcement became
official.
Dr. George Cross, president
of Oklahoma told the U-T presi
dent that he had a warm feel
ing for Tennessee.
“I once tried to invade it,”
he added, reffering to efforts a
couple of years ago to hire
Dickey for the head coaching
job at Oklahoma when the
Sooners had a vacancy.
Dickey and Oklahoma coach
Chuck Fairbanks said they
were happy to see the Orange
Bowl meeting approved.
“It’s just nice to be wanted at
a time like this,” said Dickey.
Fairbanks responded, “No ques
tion about it. Our team also has
looked forward to going to the

With all that publicity at Ten

both having two more games to

In addition to rolling up yard
age on the ground, Chadwick
caught three passes for 31
yards and his touchdown pass
on a halfback option gave him
a perfect record in that depart
ment: two passes, two TDs.

Tom Seaver Named
NL Rookie Os Year
By FRED DOWN
UPI Sport* Writer
NEW YORK (UPD—Tom
Seaver, a 16-game winner for a
team which won only 61 games,
today became the first pitcher
in 10 years and the first New
York Met in history to be
named the National League’s
rookie-of-the-year.
A 23-year-old righthander
obtained by the Mets after he
was illegally signed to a $52,000
bonus contract by the Atlanta
Braves, Seaver was the choice
of 11 of the 20 members of the
Baseball Writers Association of
American selection committee.
Dick Hughes, who had a 16-6
record for the world champion
St. Louis Cardinals, was second
in the balloting with six votes
and Gary Nolan, who had a 14-8
mark for the Cincinnati Reds,
was third with three votes.
Seaver is the first pitcher to
be named NL rookie-of-the-year
since Jack Sanford in 1957 and
the first player on a last-place
team ever honored in his
league.
Seaver set club records of 16
victories, 18 complete games
Florida, FSU To
Battle For Bowl
By United Press International
Coach Ray Graves says his
Florida football squad is in bet
ter physical shape than he is
for Saturday’s game with Flori
da State that apparently will
decide which of the teams will
go to the Gator Bowl.
Graves, who suffered a torn
leg cartilage when a Kentucky ■
player bowled into him on the
sidelines last weekend, said
Monday the Gators were in
their best physical condition
since the FSU game.
The contest against the Seml
noles probably will decide
which team meets Penn State
in the Gator Bowl Dec. 30.
“It’s a tossup game,” Graves
said, “and the only advantage
we will have, if any, is that the
game will be played on Florida
Field.”
Mississippi coach John Vaught
warned his squad not to let
their acceptance of a bid to
play in the Sun Bowl at El
Paso, Tex., go to their heads.
Vaught said Mississippi will
be facing two of the Southeast
ern Conference’s best passers in
Vanderbilt quarterbacks Roger
May and Gary Davis this week-
