Hogan Confident He'll
Return to Pro Golfing
Fort Worth, Tex., Dec. 23
(Pi Wee Ben Hogan Is pretty
confident he will return some
day to the professional golf
tournament circuit.
But the great linksman,
whose glittering career was
halted almost a year ago In
a bus-automobile crash, said
today he didn't think he ever
would be able to play In a
tournament that had 36 holes
In a single day.
"I don't think I'll ever he
able lo go two rounds In one
day In tournament competi
tion," salr Ben as he relaxed
at Colonial Country club here.
"But there aren't many tour
naments that have 36 holes In
one day anyway."
Hogan was pleased that he
now Is able to play nine to
eighteen holes a day. He did
his first lR-hnle rounds De
cember 10 and 11 but traveled
the course in a scooter. He
registered 71 anil 72 over the
tough par 70 Colonial course.
Tuesday he walked around
18 holes and again shot under
80.
"1 get awfully tired and
sometimes my legs swell on
me," he said. "But, you know"
and he grinned at this "I
have to get my weight down."

Six Notre Dame seniors will
be playing for Coach Herman
Hickman's North team in Miami
as they take the field against
Andy Gustafson s Southern rep
resentatives. Bill W i g h t k 1 n,
Ralph McGehee, Bob Lally, W al
ter Grothaus, Larry Coutre, and
Mike Swistowicz will be our
representatives in that game
I am certain that such cap
able men will be of assistance
to Coach Hickman in a game
that should produce one of the
outstanding passing duels of
modern football history, as
the two teams have four of
the years's leading forward
passers.
Throwing for the South will
be Adrian Burke of Baylor, who
completed more passes than any
other college passer in 1949, and
Jim Powers of Southern Califor
nia whose completion percentage
of 58.6 was the highest of any
passer attempting more than 140
forward passes.
Northern aerialists will be
Eddie Songin of Boston College,
who completed more passes per
game than any other collegiate
passer, and Steve Romanik of
Villanova whose completed pass
percentage of 20 yards per pass
was tops in the nation. Such high
class talent certainlv assures
Floridians of a fine football
game for a most worthy cause.
Next week s columns will pre
sent us with the opportunity to
look more closely at the contes
tants on the East-West game, but
inasmuch as Monday is kickoff
time for the North-South the
pleasant task of picking the out
come is upon us. The fact that
Coach Hickman will be able to
field a line averaging 229 pounds
combines with our natural pre
judice in favor of our own play
ers to cause us to pick the North
to edge out Coach Gustafson's
team.

Poetry for Free
Tokyo. Dec. 23 (IP) Emperor
Hirohito still Is tossing off
poems, but he won't take money
for them.
Recently he sent seven poems
to Kaizo. a popular magazine. It
was the first time in history an
emperor did anything like that.
Kaizo's editors were over
whelmed. They offered the em
peror 10,000 yen (about $30) for
his contributions.
The emperor's household offi
cials said "No." They'd take five
copies of the magazine instead.
The emperor would distribute
them to members of his family.
One Kaizo editor said the im
perial bookkeeper didn't want to
bother with the red tape re
ceipts, book entries, tax state
ments, etc. that would ensue.
The editors say such talent
should not go unrewarded. They
are thinking of sending the em
peror 10.000-yen worth of fruit.

now won half of their lat
four games and looked consid
erably better even in the two
which were lost.
The Ducks owe their great ral
ly in the Stanford opener and
a large part of the second game
victory to some great shooting
on the part of the four rabbit

games and he was closely fol

Punchboards to
Face Court Test
Portland, Dec. 23 UP) The
last remaining legal punchboards
in Portland face a court test to
day. The city filed a circuit court
case to determine the legality of
question - and - answer boards.
Other kinds previously were
ruled illegal. ' '
City Attorney Alexander G.
Brown said he hoped to gain a
decision that would make clear
"the degree of chance which
constitutes a lottery."
The question and answer
board has been in doubtful sta
tus because each punch presents
a question and a number. If the
customer answers the question
within 20 seconds, he wins a
prize. The number determines
the prize he gets.
A trial date has not been set.
