Await Season’s Finis
BY ED CORRIGAN
NEW YORK, Nov. 30. — (AP) — The waning college
football season comes to the end of the trail tomorrow and
when all the returns are in, the last two major bowl teams
probably will be decided. Mg b e
Kentuky's oponent in the Cot
ton Bowl will be the winner of the
Southwest Conference, and Geor
gia Tech's Orange Bowl competi
tion may come from one of the
Southwest Conference teams that
lose out.
Texas Christian can win it by
beating Southern Methodist. If,
however, T. C. U. loses and Bay
lor whips Rice, then Baylor fin
ishes at the top. If Rice wins
while T. C. U. is losing, the two
will windup in a deadlock for first.
Texas is out of it, having bowed
to Texas A. and M. yesterday, 22-
.
Army and Middies
There are two other big battles
—in a traditional sense—though
actually neither means much from
a national standpoint. Army meets
Navy in Philadelphia, and Notre
Dame travels to Los Angeles to
play Southern California.
Even with their poor records, a
erowd of about 100,000 is expected
t 6 jam Municipal Stadium for the
Army-Navy affair, attracted to a
large extent by the pomp and
ceremony attached to it. Notre
me gnid Ssouthern %glifornla
re to lure about 50,000.
avy and the Trojans are the
favorites. The Middies are eight
gnts over the Cadets, Southern
1 is regarded as a seven-point
choice over the Irish.
Tennessee, the No. 1 team in the
country in the weekly Associated
Press poll, goes against Vander~
bilt and is a 26-point choice to re
cord its 20th straight victory. The
Vols meet Maryland in the Sugar
Bowl, Jan. 1. |
Favored Engineers
Georgia Tech, which has been
walting for its Orange Bowl op
ponent to be named for close to a
month, will meet Georgia. The
=ineeu are favored by seven
& half points. The Vols and
Tech probably will wind up co
champions of the Southeastern
Conference.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30 —
(AP) — Postal inspectors disclos
ed yetserday the tickets to the
Shrine East-West football game
are missing as a result of a mail
robbery,
They asked purchasers to re
port immediately if they haven't
yet received tickets ordered by
mail. About 87,000 were mailed
out.
The theft was discovered last
Sunday, inspectors said, when
John F. Chiora, a 39-year-old
Southern Pacific baggage agent,
was arrested on a sharge of steal
ing a check from the mails.
The tickets sell for $5 each, but
since each year's %amel is a sell

as much as S2O for a good seat to
the December 29 grid classic.

Rickey Seeks
Rule Change
At Minor Meet
PITTSBURGH, Nov. 30 — (AP)
Branch Rickey, a man with a rec
ord for accomplishment in base
ball, is going to the minor league
annual meeting with a determina
tion to get the high school rule
changed.
Rickey, engaged in the terrific
job of trying to rebuild the Pitts
burgh Pirates into a pennant
winning ball club, says a man
ager should be able to sign a high
school youth to a contract.
The present rule forbids a man
ager from even talking business
with a high school student. Rickey
says the law is being violated —
and often.
He thinks a proposed amend
ment to the rule that would per
mit baseball’s front office to have
a heart-to-heart talk with a high
school boy, but forbids a contract,
is equally ridiculous.
The old Mahatma, who braved
the criticism of the fans when he
signed the first negro to play in
the major leagues, and organized
the farm club system, says:
“I believe the high schools must
come to a different definition of
amateurism. I believe the parents
with the cooperation of their sons
should not be deprived of the right
to make contracts for future serv
ices.”
But he makes it clear he doesn’t
believe a youth should let baseball
interfere with his education.

Athens Rotarians Pick Georgia To

over Tech in the annual gridiron classic tomorrow afternoon in
Grant Stadium.
In a poll conducted by Sam Woods, editor of the weekly Rotary
News, 42 of the 70 members asked picked the Bulldogs to upset
the Yellow Jackets. Their predictions with the probable scores
were published in the November 26 edition of the News.
Although one prognosticator gave the Jackets a 28 point edge,
most of the guesses were close, with the Bulldogs’ greatest margin

Gator Bowl Officials
Eye Advance Sellout
MIVAMI, Fla., Nov. 30. — (AP) — Signing Miami and
Clemson was ‘“‘the greatest thing that ever happened to the
Gator Bowl,” says President Sam Wolfson.
The Gator Bowl at Jacksonville
will be sold out in advance for the
first time since the New Year’s
day game was inaugurated in 1946.
Walfson came here yesterday
to talk over some game details
with Jack Harding, Miami Ath
letic Director, and Bob Jones,
Clemson Business Manager.
Each team will receive “$60,000
for sure, and probably $65,000,”
Wolfson said. That would be $15,-
000 per team more than the Gator
Bowl has ever paid. -
“A sellout crowd of 41,000 is
assured,” Wolfson reported. “We
have 4,000 general admission seats
left but we'll sell those in an hour
or so when we hold our public
sale next Thursday.
“Clemson took 15,000 seats and
has already sold and wants more.
Miami got 7,500 tickets and wants
more, too. But there®aren’t any.”
Woifson said the Gator Bowl
would been expanded to 60,000
seats “in a couple of years” and
wouli be double-decked to make
room for 75,000 when materials
become readily available.
The Miami-Clemson game is a
rematch, Clemson defeated Miami

Former Coach
Confident Of
Grid Survival
CHICAGO, Nov. 30 — (AP)
—Amos Alonzo Stagg is confid
ent that football, though having
its ups and downs, will survive.
The 89-year-old Stagg, a foot
ball coach for almost 60 years,
told reporters yesterday:
“The values of football are so
well established and recognized
by the education leaders of our
colleges and universities that
while the game may be in danger
I dc};ln"t think it will be done away
with.”
Stagg Coached 41 years at the
University of Chicago, until 1933,
then went to College of Pacific
until 1946. Now he is helping his
son, Amas Alonzo, jr., Coach
Susquehanna in Pennsylvania.
Their team was undefeated this
season.
The “Grand Old Man” of foot
ball said he is concerned about
charges of semi-professionalism,
betting and subsidization in col
lege athletics.
By The Associated Press
Ten Southeastern Conference teams relaxed with light
workouts today before tomorrow’s five traditional tilts
marking schedule windups for all.
Georgia Tech, bound for Miami
and the Orange Bowl New Year’s
Day, and top-ranking Tennessee,
which meets Maryland in the Su
gar Bowl at New Orleans, wound
up serious work yesterday for their
Saturday encounters with Georgia
and Vanderbilt.
The other SEC entries complete
their grid work for the year with
this program: Auburn at Alabama,
Mississippi at Mississippi State,
Tulane at Louisiana State.
Tech, rated a two-touchdown
favorite over fast-improving Geor
gia, learned that first string safety
man Jakie Rudolph would miss the
scrap. Jakie, one of the Yellow
Jackets’ Dbetter pass defenders,
hurt his knee two weeks ago
against Alabama.
Bulldogs Work Light
Georgia worked out lightly in
Athens. .The offensive .platoon
polished its pass patterns while
the husky defeasive crew sought
the key to Tech’'s varied attack.
Vanderbilt, with the unenviable
task of facing the nation’s number
one team, continued to work on
defense at Nashville. Coach Bill
Edwards praised the Commodores
for their grit and spirit through
out the season and said of Satur
day’s game:
“l think Vanderbilt will give
Tennessee a good game providing
we make a minimum of mistakes
and keep knocking the way we
have in practice this week.”
At Knoxville, Gen. Bob Neyland
was in complete agreement with
Vandy’s Edwards.
“Vanderbilt is an aggressive
football team and in Bill Wade
possesses one of the finest passers
in the country,” the Vol coach ob
served.
Neyland’s unbeater crew held a
long workout with most of the
contact work reserved for the de
fensive unit. Pass defense, punt
returns and a dummy scrimmage
comprised the agenda for the de
fenders.
Ineligible Flanker 1
Books threw Tulane's first
string offensive end, Ferdie Kibo
daux, for a loss on the eve of its
battle with favored L. S. U. The
flankman, deficient in his studies,
was ruled ineligible for the game.
The Greenies concentrated on of
fense in yesterday’s drill.
L. S. U. was spirited in an hour
of signal drill and pass practice.
Coach Gaynell Tinsley said his
starting offensive backfield against
Tulane would be Cliff Stringfield,
Lee Hedges, Leroy Labat and Al
Doggeftt.
Coach Ralph Jordan took a 44-
man Auburn squad, including
eight freshmen, to Birmingham to
day for a last light drill before
meeting arch-rival Alabama at Le
gion Field. The Plainsmen em-
SEC President
Sees Ban Put
On Basketball
MERIDIAN, Miss.,, Nov. 30 —
(AP)—Dr. Fred T. Mitchell, pres
ident of the Southeastern Confer
ence, says he expects the Con
ference at its December meetings
to ban all basketball games not
played .in conference-controlled
gymnasiums. .
Mitchell, president of Mississip
pi State College, also termed post
season football games “rackets”
and said, “my solution is to get
rid of them entirely.””
But, he added, he does not ex
pect the conference to ban bowl
games. He spoke at an athletics
forum before State College alumni.
He said he believed conference
action to restrict basketball games
to conference - controlled gyms
would reduce the possibility of
fixed games and shaved margins
of victory.
Mitchell said he would propose
to the December SEC meeting that
bowl games be banned but added
that because of Tulane’s position
on the matter he did not believe
any action would be taken to bar
conference teams from the Sugar
Bowl.
In terming bowl games ‘“rack
ets,”” Mitchell said they are held
solely for the benefit of hotel own=<
ers, restaurants and conecession
aries who, he said, charge exorhi
tant prices.
He told of a friend who, want
ing to attend the Orange Bowl in
Miami, learned his hotel room
would cost SIOO a day and he
would have to take it for four
days.
Mitchell said he would propose
that the SEC require bewl teams
to share their gross proceeds with
other conference members.
Acceptance of the proposal, he
predicted, would mean an end of
bowl competition in the SEC.
Turning to the situation of Miss
issippi State, Mitchell told the
alumni spring football practice
may soon be abolished there.
He said students carrying 15 or
16 hours school work can't possi
bly put the proper amount of time
on their studies if they work 25
to 30 hours on the practice field.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 30 — (AP)
— There’s a chance—according
to general manager Gabe Paul—
there will be negro ballplayers in
the Cincinnati Reds’ farm organ
ization next season.
The Redleg chief last night con=
firmed reports that the club is
dickering for at least one negro
athlete and a negro scout.
The player the ball <lub is try
ing to get is Charles Harmon, an

All eight American League

The Cleveland Indians and Chic

their roster while the other six
clubs have a plentiful scatering
of negroes in their minor league

In the National League, negroes
are in the regular lineups of the

to join the North for the Dec. 20

The Holly Cross players are 210-

halfback John Cullity, a versatile
185-pound flash who churned up
plenty of yardage for the Cruca

Bomm, who made the Associated

all-round flankmen in the East.
His six-foot, three inch height
makes him a good target for pas
