Cotton Bowl Tilt
To Feature Most
'All' Footballers
DALLAS, Dec. 21 UP) The
Cotton Bowl won't have teams
with the best season records
among the major bowl games
Jan. 2 but It can boast the most
All-Americas.
In fact, it will have as many
as the other bowl games com
bined. .
There will be two fellows of the
mythical team variety playing
against each other here when
Rice tangles with North Carolina.
The big man of the Owls (not
in size but in ability) is James
(Froggy) Williams, that talent
ed pass-catcher, defensive tower
and adept place-kicker.
The headliner of North Caro
lina will be Charlie Justice, a
fellow who has been in the public
eye for four years, two of which
he has been All-America.
All other bowl games combined
have two All-Americas.
California, which plays Ohio
State in the run for the roses at
Pasadeiva (the Rose Bowl),
boasts Rod Franz, All-America
guard.
Oklahoma, Which plays Loui
siana State in the Sugar Bowl at
New Orleans, has Wade Walker,
All-America tackle.
The Cotton Bowl game definite
ly will be the last for both Wil
liams and Justice. Each has de
clared he will not enter pro foot
ball. Williams - says he isn't big
enough (185). Justice is a little
fellow, too. He weighs just 167.
Prep Gridder Scores 257
Points During One Season
RISING STAR, Tex. (IF)
Buck Gibson knows a thing or
two about running with a foot
ball. He scored 257 points during
the season..
But tho amazing thing about
the Rising Star High school flash
is that ho averaged more than 17
yards every time he carried the
Dan.
Gibson sparked Rising Star to
an undefeated, untied season. In
fact, the team has a consecutive
winning streak of 29 games which
started in October of 1947.
It is pointed out that Gibson
doesn't do anything except run
no passing or punting or anything
else. But, it also Is pointed out
that the college coaches want
Gibson.
About 90 percent of its asbestoi"
Is imported from Canada by the
United States.

Gridder's Suit
WASHINGTON. Dec. 21. UP)
Fullback Ralph Ruthstrom, who
tried to get the Washington Red
skins to pay him $4,100 for a sea
son In which he didn't play, wound
up by being tackled behind his
own goal line.
Federal District Judge David A.
Pine yesterday ordered him to
pay the Redskins $241.80.
That's what the Redskins had
asked for in a counter suit. They
said they had advanced Ruth
strom some money, and that lie
was $241.80 shy in paying it back.
Ruthstrom's argument was this:
He said he had been suspended
by the Redskins in 1947, and that
he couldn't get another fullback
ing job because of the so-called
reserve clause.
This clause it's used in base
ball as well as pro football con
tracts says a player can't sign
with another club until he is given
a written release.
The Redskins, Ruthstrom argu
ed, wouldn't give him this release.
But National Football league
Commissioner Bert Bell, In a 54
page deposition, said many play
ers had gone over to the All-America-
conference - w 1 1 h o u t
-bothering to get a formal release.

not against Sandy Saddler. St.
Louis hopes for a championship
bout between Pep and Charlie
Siley, a home town boy, during
the indoor season.
A top Plum
A third Pep-Saddler match
would be a top plum on the sum
mer outdoor calendar if the right
promoter can satisfy the cash de
mands of Pep manager Lou Vis
cusi and Charlie Johnston, Sadd
ler's pilot. It's one of the lew big
matches left.

PASADENA, Calif., UP)
California's Bears are due for a
rough afternoon in the Rose Bowl
Jan. 2 those Ohio State Buck
eyes are even nasty to each
other.
Coach Wes Fesler put his club
through a socko scrimmage yes
terday and the mayhem-minded
Buckeyes knocked themselves
dizzy.
Three of the Bucks were side,
lined in one five minute interval.
Halfback Jerry Krall, top
ground-gainer, hit the line on the
second play of the scrimmage
and gave out with a scream of
agony. He complained of a pain
in the ribs but made it to the
sidelines under his own power.
Reserve center Tom Rath was
knocked cold on the very next
play. He soon recovered.
Shortly thereafter, full
back Curly Morrison bumped his
knees and left the lineup.
Fesler said he di'dn't consider
any of the damages severe.
