San Fran Army-Navy Tilt Sets Grid Style; Duke Vies in Bowl By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sports Writer The drama of the Army-Navy game, with a possible bowl bid at stake, sets the style for the double - barrelled program of showdown games winding up the 1957 college football season this week. With Duke officially named Sunday as Oklahoma's rival in the Orange Bowl at Miami, Fla., four major bowl berths still are to be filled and, in addition, this week's games on either Thursday or Saturday will de termine five major conference champions. Still to be picked are both teams in the Cotton and Sugar bowls and the champs in the Southeastern, Southwest, South ern, Skyline and Border leagues. After a formful Saturday when only one of the nation's top 10 teams, ninth-ranked Notre Dame, was beaten, and then by eighth-ranked Iowa, 21 13, here's how the major bowls are lining up: Rose Ohio State vs. Oregon. Orange Oklahoma vs. Duke. Cotton Rice or Texas A&M vs. Navy or Mississippi. Sugar Rice or Texas A&M vs. Mississippi. Key Games Coming Up Three games will probably settle all four bowl bids. Texas A&M (4-1-0) meets Texas on Thursday's Turkey day card and Rice (also (4-1-0) meets Baylor Saturday. If both contenders win, they tie for the Southwest conference crown and Rice goes to Cotton with the Aggies probably to the Sugar. If one wins while the other loses, win ner gets title and Cotton bowl berth, loser probably gets Sugar. Meanwhile, Navy is expected to get and accept the other Cot ton bowl spot if it beats Army in Philadelphia's big game Sat urday. Also at " stake in what promises to be a high-powered game is the Lambert trophy, emblematic of Eastern grid su premacy. Mississippi Certain for a bowl game will take the South eastern conference if it beats Mississippi State Saturday and bowl ineligible Auburn loses to Alabama. For the other league titles: VMI can clinch the Southern conference by beating Virginia Tech; Utah can clinch the Sky line by beating Utah State Thursday, and Arizona (Tempe) HOCKEY NATIONAL LEAGUE By UNITED PRESS The Toronto Maple Leafs finally are beginning to show signs of emerging from the Na tional Hockey League cellar.

STRAIGHT FROM KENTUCKY -A TRULY AMERICAN WHISKEY HOLIDAY GIFT CARTONS AVAILABLE AFTER DECEMBER 1st DRESS FOR GIVINGI The Buckeyes took all th Big Ten had to offer by beating Iowa for the title a week ago and then walloping Michigan, 31-14, for its seventh straight conference success Saturday. By coming from behind to down the Wolverines, Ohio State collected its 24th confer ence win in 26 starts since the 1954 campaign. It also gave the Buckeyes their second Rose bowl bid since then, and their third conference championship. The Bucks made their most improving showing in 1954 un der Coach Woody Hayes when they wound up undefeated with a string of 10 victories, seven in the conference. They capped this accomplishment with a 20-7 Rose bowl win over Southern California. Ineligible in 1955 In 1955, the Bucks were In eligible for the bowl but finish ed in first place with six con ference wins and no losses. They dropped their only two confer ence games in four seasons last year, finishing fourth to cham pion Iowa with a 4-2 record. Hayes' crew would have add ed another undefeated year to the record but for a pesky Texas Christian which scored an upset over the Big Ten cham pions in the season's opening game. It would figure as an even greater upset if the Pacific Coast conference king Oregon stopped the Buckeyes on New Years day. MIDDIES LIST OPPONENTS Annapolis, Md.
