But both selections hinged on a number of "ifs." Sugar Bowl officials, who saw Pittsburgh spill West Virginia from the bowl road last Satur day, ; came away with glowing praise for the Panthers, a team that blossomed this year after e'veral mediocre seasons. Although beaten by Oklahoma, Navy and Miami this season, Pittsburgh seems to be climbing back towards the pinnacle of the 1937 team that spilled Washing ton in the Rose Bowl. The big "if" for Sugar Bowlers will be the Panthers' perform ance this Saturday against Penn State. A Sugar Bowl bid for Pitt could well ride on the out come. Georgia Tech of the South eastern Conference seems head ed for its third appearance in the Sugar Bowl. Mississippi could take the SEC crown, but the Rebels, beaten here last year by Navy, 21-0, appear to be eyeing the Cotton Bowl with favor, es pecially if Texas Christian is the host team. However, Tech, which has lost to Auburn and has a tie with Tennessee, could be ousted under the right conditions by surpris ing Vanderbilt or Tennessee. It's the all purpose -wheel drive truck!

Art Luppino Near Second Rushing Toga New York (U.R) Art Lup pino, Arizona's stocky speedster, was on the verge today of be coming the first player in history to win the major college football rushing title for the second year in a row. A 200 - yard performance against Montana Saturday kept Luppino, a 170- pound junior from La Jolla, Calif., 20 yards ahead of Texas Christian's Jim Swink, whose one-man show against Texas produced 235 yards, single game high of the year. Luppino, who won last year's rushing title with a total of 1,359 yards, is only 78 yards from bet tering the greatest total ever compiled by a player over two seasons, and only 25 yards from the highest figure ever set in two consecutive years. Rudy Mobley of Hardin - Simmons gained 2.543 yards in rushing in 1942 and 1946, and Howard Waugh of Tulsa gained 2,490 in back-to-back performances dur ing 1951 and 1952. Cassaday Third Howard (Hopalong) Cassaday of Ohio State moved into third place with 812 yards gained rushing and was followed by Bob James of Auburn with 728 yards and Len Moore of Penn State with 687. Columbia's Claude Benham re turned to the passing lead he held six weeks ago by compet ing 17 out of 35 aerials against Navy. Benham now has com pleted 87 passes in 180 attempts. Len Dawson of Purdue ranks second with 78 out of 139 and George Welsh of Navy third with 76 out of 122. Welsh, the Middies' All-America quarterback candidate, heads the total offense department for the second straight week with 1,163 yards gained in eight games. Luppino is runnerup with 1,106 yards and Swink third with 1,086 yards. Jerry Riechow of Iowa, who has gained a total of 1,109 yards and Benham, with 977 yards, round out the top five.

(U.R) He was sure he could make it as a big league ball player that day in 1925 when he walked into the dugout of the New York Yan kees. But to his great disillusion ment, the veteran players, even Babe Ruth, laughed at him. In those days, he said, they didn't think much of college players. So he gave up the idea of being a ball player. Baseball's loss was football's gain for he has brought his Alma Mater some of its greatest teams.
