Set Tuesday Rebel Stars Decision Yanks, 22-13 TidweUTflt's Biggest Star ' Auburn Ace Outshines Touted Doak, Justice By F. T. MaeFeely ' JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 7 -W)t. Travis Tidwell spun a foot ball web of passes that carried his Rebel all- tars to a 23-13 victory over the " Yankees in the Senior bowl game today. - Charlie Justice of . North Caro Una and Doak Walker of Southern Methodist lived up to their press notices, but Tidwell -was even bet ter. The little Auburn quarterback who was named most valuable in the Southeastern conference got the same honor In this classy field of all-America and all-conference players from every section of the nation. , Tidwell tossed 19 times to con nect on 13 for an amazing gain of 245 yards. End Art Weiner of North Carolina teamed with Tid well to make a great combination. He fielded eight of those throws for 139 yards. - - The losing Yankees also had -a great passing team in Paul Camp bell, Texas quarterback, and Jim Owens, Oklahoma end. Campbell threw Z7 times hit on 18 for 147 yards. Only 20,000 fans turned out to see the all-stars star. But they got a real show out of the 50 players. Besides the aerial fireworks was a demonstration of tough defen sive line play by both walls. Tackle Wade Walker of Okla homa and Center Clayton Tonne maker of Minnesota both all- America, led a Yankee line that held the Rebels to 46 yards by rushing. The Yanks could run for only 63 against a Rebel line that was, tough from end to end. The pass defense looked mighty weak in comparison. But it wasn't that nearly so much as the accura cy with which Tidwell. Campbell and Eddie Lebaron of College of trio Pacific, could drop that ball in the right spot. Key kick returns by Justice, and Doak Walker added to the thrills. Walker started the Yanks off to their first score with a runback for 57 yards. Justice opened the war to two Rebel touchdowns. He went 28 to begin the first drive and 29 to start the last Tidwel threw to Herb Rich. Vanderhilt back, for sr 55 -yard play that scored tho first rebel six pointer. On fourth down he set one in the arms of John O'Quinn, Wake Forest end, for 13 yards and the second. Another Tidwell to Rich toss covered most of 33 yards in the final touchdown march. Ed die Price. Tulane fullback, scored it with a one foot smackover. Before the Rebels cot started, the Yankees had their scoring fl ing. Taking It from Walker's 57 yard runback, they moved 32 yards In hurry. Lynn Chandnois. Michi gan State, rammed over from the four. Darrell Royal of Oklahoma started the Yankees off to a 78 yard scoring march with a pass interception. LeBaron threw to Owens on a '46-yard scoring pass.

Two-Ton Gets Andther 'E for Effort Rotund Tex Salkeld has perhaps been one of the most ac cursed gents la town ever si nee ho took p tho diffienlt chore of matchmaker for the flsticBffers here. Whether guitly or not and most of the time he's not Tex has been blamed for every poor fight making Its way into the armory. Thank! oily there ; hasnt been many of such animals lately. - But no onec an ever blame or Two-Ton for not trying to install the very best possible shows every; now and then in Portland. He's had some pretty big ones in the past and Is shooting for even bigger ones in the near future. Dating Woodburn Joe Kahut with Pat Valen tino for what will amount to the Coast heavyweight title is a snappy move by Salkeld, and if he can get the Kahut-Ez Charles 15-rounder signed up for next summer, which looks good right now, he'll have hit the jackpot Obtaining' a world heavyweight boxing match for Portland isn't small potatoes. - There have been those who have often chirped the likes of "What the fight game needs la Salem is a new ma wtch maker ret rid of Salkeld.'' To which we disagree. Salkeld knows the game inside out. has control of most of those who manage the fighters In this area and has, for tho past few years tried, often Quite ex pensively, to install crowd-pleasing cards both tn Salem and Port- , land. We feel that the local VFW chapter would be making a sad . mistake if it didn't stick with Tex as Its prodaction manager.
