I. Pickem Take
Final Fling At
Grid Predicting
Rogue Valley Golfers Are Paired for East -West Match
San Francisco, Dec. 29 Mr.
I. Pickem, with over month
to convalesce from casualties
suffered during the grid season
proper, makes his 193B exit to
day by taking pot-shots at the
five major "bowl" games and
the East-West Shrine shindig,
which has drawn him to this
town.
Pickem's wounds are entirely
healed, he is back on his feet
again and feeling frisky, and
he wouldn't be surprised to
come up with perfect New
Year's Day callings. The weath
er is lovely here, the sun is
shining, and how is everything
In Medford?
Because Pickem will be
among those present when the
East and West start snarling at
each other in Kezar stadium
Monday, he'll lead off his final
1939 prognostication-program as
follows:
EAST-WEST: Medford's Bob
by Smith will be flinging his
left arm all over the lot, so how
can Pickem pick anything but
the West? It would be plain
treason to call the East, and
anyway the dopester honestly
believes the Babe-Hollingbery-Blff
Jones clan will show those
easterners a thing or two. With
Smith cooperating with Kay
Eakin of Arkansas and Zimmer
man of San Jose State, the West
giants will romp to a 13 to 7
victory over the club of Bernie
Bierman and Andy Kerr.
TENNESSEE-U.S.C. Pickem
figures It thisawayi The Tro.
Jans, in their last two ball
games, looked anything but a
great team. They were mighty
lucky to beat Washington and
ile U.C.L.A. Tennessee, on the
ether hand. Is at least as good
a defensive team as Duke was
last season, and the Vols have
an offense to go with their
Impregnable line. It all boils
down to the Pickem predic
tion that Tennessee will wal
lop the Jonesmen by three
touchdowns to naught.
TEXAS AGGIES TULANE.
This Sugar bowl classic might
turn out to be the best of the
day. Williamson rates the teams
one-two, respectively, in the na
tion. The Aggies are unbeaten
end untied, while Tulane has
only a tie on Its recdrd. This
really Is a coin-flipping affair,
as both clubs look equal in
every respect, but Pickem'll
string along with the Aggies
about 20 to 14.
GEORGIA TECH-MISSOURI.
Paul Christman will probably
be in there firing the leather
like a machine gun, but Georgia
Tech should have a slight ad
vantage because of being used
to the southern weather. It's in
the Orange bowl, in case you
have forgotten.. Anyway, It's
Georgia Tech by a 12 to 6 tally.
CLEMSON - BOSTON COL
LEGE. In this Cotton bowl frac
as at Dallas, Texas, Jim Kim
brough will lead his Clemson
aggregation to a 7 to 0 conquest
of B. C. Like Missouri, Boston
will be hampered by the sun
shine, while Clemson will be
right In its element.
ARIZONA STATE - CATHO
LIC UNIVERSITY. Another
eastern team will find the going
too hot in this Sun bowl strug
gle, and Arizona State will up
set a fine Catholic University
eleven which has lost only one
game this season. The score:
Arizona State 20 Catholic 7.
