Columbus. O. : (U.R) State's
unbeaten Buckeyes plan- to
throw a few surprises at South
ern California when the teams
clash in the Rose Bowl.
Coach Woody Hayes naturally
doesn't say much about this but
he made sure he would have a
practice field near Pasadena
where his Big Ten champions
could work out In secret for the
New Year's Day classic.
Hayes, said before taking his
44-man squad to Pasadena Sat
urday that he was pleased with
the way the men kept in condi
tion during the lay-off since the
Michigan game Nov. 20. He in
dicated, however, that he was be
hind schedule in getting his de
fenses set for Southern Califor
nia, a team that impressed him
greatly in its close contest with
Notre Dame.

some Ralph Guglielmi, the Ital
ian Irishman from Notre Dame,
without so, much as saying a
word, has taken over as "boss"
of the East team for the Shrine
All-Star classic Jan. 1.
That's the kind of personality
the star quarterback has, one
that has "executive" marked all
over it.
. "This boy," said one of the
coaches, "exudes personality all
over. Just watch how the other
players, some of them All
Americans, too, hang around
him.
"He Is a "take charge boy, if
I ever saw one." -

line and great backfield talent.
lis being installed as a favorite
to. win the 30th annual all-star
classic, the East coaches think
Guglielmi may have something
to say about that. In fact, even
the West coaches agree.
All Around Star
"This Guglielmi," says Coach
Eddie Price of Texas, one . of the
West aides, "can pick you to
pieces. He is an all-around star
who knows what he is doing
every moment on the field."
Coach Eddie Anderson of the
East team, is hopeful with
Guglielmi at the helm, too.
"Last year," Anderson says,
"I think the West had -the best
quarterbacking. This year, with
Guglielmi and Don Bailey of
Penn State calling the signals, I
think we'll have the edge there."

The stocky Hayes, who has
had three unbeaten seasons in
nine years as a college coach,
often pointed to team morale
and team play as a big factor
in the nine victories. He was
pleased to note that the Buck
"I know nobody is going to stop
them for 60 minutes."
. Hayes pointed . to halfback
Bobby Watkins, the Mr. Inside
of the Buckeye split-T attack,
as a typical example of Buckeye
spirit. The 191-pound senior
from New Bedford, Mass., en
rolled in Ohio State because he
wanted to play in the Rose Bowl.
He said he figured state was the
school with the best chance to
win Big Ten championships year
after year.
Defense Needed Work
But Watkins had to work ex
tra hard for a starting berth this
year because he was weak on
defense- He put in extra hours,
kept his starting place, became
one of the most feared tacklers
on the team, and led the team in
rushing yardage for the second
straight year.
The well conditioned Buck
California, head man for the
West squad, had to admit that
he would have to "put Guglielmi
ahead of Paul Larson and
George Shaw."
"I'm just making that state
ment on hearsay," said Pappy.
"But, after all, Guglielmi
made most of the Ail-Americans
head of Larson and Shaw. And
what little I've seen and heard
of him here, I guess he is the
man we'll have to beat."
Friendly Fellow
Guglielmi is just .about the
most personable man on the
squad. At the Crippled Chil
dren's hospital, he was off in a
corner talking to a 7-year-old
lad about football, just like they

Niagara Mentor Must Use
Starters or Lose Contests
By ED FEINEN
United Press Sports Writer
Niagara Falls, N. Y. - (U.R)
After 20 years of basketball suc
cess by smart usage of strong
reserves, Niagara's John (Taps)
Gallagher has changed tactics
this season.
Facing a - typical gruelling
schedule of 23 games, Gallagher
is determined to string along
with an "Ironman Five" of four
seniors and one tall junior. The
reason is simple Gallagher's
bench hasn't come up with one
capable replacement for the five
veterans who carried Niagara to
a 24-6 record and third place in
the National Invitation Tourna
ment last year.
Logic Convincing
The logic of the curly-haired
Brooklyn Irishman is convincing.
As long as he has En Fleming,
Charley Hoxie, Tom Hemans,
Jim McConnell and Hube Brown
in the lineup, Niagara is as good
as any. quintet in the land.
Fleming, a center with tremen
dous spring in his legs, has .been
the wheelhorse in Niagara's
sweep to six wins in seven games
so far this season. Averaging 23

general and those in the South
in particular owe a vote ,of ap
preciation today to a shy young
basketball player at the Univer
sity of North Carolina named
Paul Likins.
The usual conception of an
athlete is that he is a well
padded brute whose conversa
tional ability consists of a few
well-chosen "ughs" and who
couldn't count up to 20 if he
happened to be wearing shoes.
Southern schools get it the
vorst as muscle factories which
specialize in Kelly pool and
extension courses in the ABC's.
Likins, a three-year letter man
at North Carolina, knocks this
theory flatter than a dehydrated
flounder. -Wins
Rhodes Scholarship
Because Likins last week won
a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford;
is president of Phi Beta Kappa;
has a straight A average while
majoring in physics, and studies
such varied sources as Russian
and electronics. - -
Nor is Likins "carried" on the
Tar Heel squad for "effect." The
6-foot, 10-inch senior is the
team's top rebounder and will
have earned all four of his let
ters when he leaves Chapel Hill.
"I always blow my top when I
hear those snide inferences that
college athletes are dumbbells,'

Coach Frank McGuire, the Yan
kee Pixie who made good in

points a game, Fleming, a senior
from . Pittsburgh, is having his
greatest year.- .
Ironically, his best effort of 32
points came in the Purple Eagles'
lone defeat, a 76-75 overtime loss
to highly ranked LaSalle. Flem
ing outscored . LaSalle's Tom
Gola by one point as the two
waged a bitter duel in Buffalo's
Memorial Auditorium Dec. 11.
Niagara's lack of reserves
showed up for the first time
against LaSalle. Going all the
way with the "Iron Men," Niag
ara never trailed in regulation
time and led by seven points
when Hoxie fouled out with ap
proximately four minutes left.
Against Toledo last weekend,
the bench deficit again was evi
dent. Niagara's starters rolled up
a 20-point early lead and Gallag
her inserted five substitutes.
Within three minutes Toledo cut
the margin by 10 points, and the
Eagle regulars were rushed
back into play to solidify an 80
61 triumph.
: Other early conquests included
Buffalo State Teachers, Ford
ham, Lemoyne, Cornell and Syr
acuse. the college kids of today. .
Work Hart For Future
"They know they have a fu
ture out in the world," he adds,
"and the very great majority of
them work hard at their studies
to fit themselves for that work."
A shy 21-year-old, Likins came
by his intellectual ability na
urally. His father is a high school
teacher in Elkhartt Ind., and
Paul wasn't enough of 'a high
school standout on the court to
be in great demand among the
colleges closer to his home.
"BUt we're glad he came to
Carolina," McGuire says. "Paul
may - not be everybody's - All
American but I never saw a boy
work harder to be a good player.
He gives it all he's got, even if
his studies do force him to miss
a lot of practice."
Paul gets straight A'g in all
his studies. But even though
he's on the basketball varsity,
he has only managed a B aver

By CARL LUNDQUIST i
United Press Sports Writer
New York (U.R) - Bob!
Grim, the , 24-year-old son of a
Brooklyn bartender and the first
Yankee rookie to win 20 games
in 44 years, won the American
League Rookie of the Year
award today with 15 out of 24
votes. - - '
The ex-Marine who came out
of the service and landed a job
as a Yankee starter, even though
his highest professional exper
ience had been with Binghamton
in 1951 in the Class A Eastern
league, finished with a record
of 20 victories and only six de
feats.
In the balloting by, a special
committee of 24 members of the
Baseball Writers, of America, the
only other players to receive
consideration we're Jim Finigan,
the third baseman of the Athlet
ics with eight ' votes, and out
fielder Al Kaline of the Tigers
with one.
Grim, who had an earned run
average of ,3.26, struck out 108
batters and walked 85. He also
had one of the , best anti-home
run marks of the year. Although
he yielded 175 hits only nine
were homers.
Yankee Pitching Coach ; Jim
Turner, who tabbed .Grim for
stardom the moment he saw him
work out, cited the youngster's
delivery as "one of the best I
ever have seen."
"He throws a good curve and
a good slider and he throws them
both with the same smooth mo
