By RUSS DALEY Oxford, Miss. U.R) The Rebels are ready for a rebellion. Tired of being beaten in foot- balLJpowl games and of develop ing a reputation that they can't win the big ones, the boys from Mississippi are out for a bit of revenge on Jan. 2 in the Cotton Bowl against Texas Christian. It isn't that they have any thing particularly against TCU It is simply that they would like to get around to winning one of these holiday clambakes instead of being beaten regularly. In 1952 Mississippi had its first unbeaten team in history but took a 24-7 pounding from Georgia Tech in the Sugar Bowl. Last year Ole Miss lost only to Arkansas during the regular sea son but was thumped 21-0 by Navy in the same Sugar Bowl setting. This . time Mississippi goes to Dallas with a 9-1 mark, having lost only to Kentucky. And this time the boys say things will be different. Won Only Once Actually, Mississippi has won 1 only once in four bowl games. That could be significant, too, because the lone victory was against TCU in the 1948 Delta Bowl game. In the only other bowl appearance, Catholic uni versity squeezed out a 20-19 tri umph in the 1936 Orange BowL Mississippi will be an under dog in the Cotton Bowl but that doesn't disturb Coach Johnny Vaught. In fact he prefers it that way because it "will make us all the more determined to win." Vaught is planning to use a lot of passing in an effort to stay in front of TCU and its great breakaway runners, featuring Jim Swink. Both Mississippi quarterbacks, Eagle Day and Johnny . Blalack are accurate heavers. Field Goal Punch Ole Miss, which hadn't scored a field goal in almost a quarter of a century, came up with a scoring punch in that department this year as fullback Paige Coth ren set a Southeastern Confer ence record by booting six of the three-pointers. If it is a close and tense struggle Coth ren's foot might mean the dif ference between winning and losing. Cothren, a fine runner who led the conference in scoring with a total of 74 points, sparks the attack which also features speedy halfbacks Earl Blair and Billy Kinard. . Aside from the fact that "you have to pass to win in this busi ness" Vaught isn't saying much about what kind of a game he expects to unfold against TCU. But in his long coaching career he has used the single wing, the double wing, the plain T, the split-T, the winged-T, the old Notre Dame box and even a spread formation. And he has used plays out of every one of them this past season. So TCU can expect almost anything.. Wate FrAZIER. 6 YEAR OLD 1 ot Bouftfafrf v x v v X IK. vU A $085 I 45 QT.
