Jacksonville, Fla. (IP) The
Gator Bowl selection committee
eicpetts to have a better idea
Allowing games this week end
ihich teams are potential con
tenders for the earliest of the
major post-season bowl games.
Committee Chairman Sam
S'olfson disclosed Monday the
number of teams under cohsid
'Sfation has already been nar

sissippi, Tennessee, Texas Christ
ian, Texas, Arkansas, Vander

sippi State.
George Olsen, business man
ager of the Gator Bowl Assn.,
added that officials hope for "a
top intersectional contest" for
the Dec. 28 Gator Bowl, which
would probably pit a Southeast
ern conference team against one
from the Southwest.
Last year, the Gator Bowl
matched Pittsburgh and Georgia
Tech in what was generally con
sidered one of the year's best
bowl games.

all picture for the entire Na
tional Football league.
More than 102,000 saw the
Rams take the Forty-Niners at
the Coliseum, and more than
311,000 saw the six games on
Sunday for a new high for a
single day's attendance for the
league.
There were three sellouts, in
Washington, Chicago and Los
Angeles. That's proof positive
that pro football has gripped the
fans in more convincing fash
ion than any other professional
sport.
Still on the pro front, we see
that things are tightening up in
the Western division. By the
time next Monday rolls around
three teams could be tied for
first place, San Francisco, De
troit and Baltimore, and right
now every team but Green Bay
still has a chance to win. The
Rams' victory over the Forty
Niners really tightened things
up and only two games separat
ed the first five elevens.
In the East, things have boil
ed down to the Cleveland
Browns and the New York
Giants. Paul Brown's club and
the 1956 champions have a good
edge on the others and will bat
tle it out.

Today we're proudly displaying the
1958 GMC Money-Maker. And we
think you'll find it the handsomest hustler
you ever handled.
An eager 200 horsepower swings a top load
like a cargo of feathers. Turning ease is
like power steering's.
A fast-ratio cruising axle gives you an
overdrive's road pace and gas savings.
Foam-rubber seats cradle you in a roomy
cab. Boulevard styling carries out the feel
ing of luxury.
But this beauty is built like a pocket
battleship. You'll see that in its massive
spring hangers. In rear springs with the
highest deflection rate of all light-duties.
You can sit solidly on an unhooked end
of its tail gate and you can't crinkle the
roof or door panels with a smack of
your hand.
YouTJ get the same quality instrument
perfo
rmer
panel as on the big, $10,000 GMC heavy
duties. A radiator mounted on a bulkhead
integral with the frame. A' steering col
umn braced like a mast.
These and more tell the inside story of
GMC stamina. Come in and see for your
self. Why not do it today?
