California and Texas Chris
tian practically "go for
broke" Saturday when they
make their bowl bids in the
final big week end of the
1958 college football cam
paign. Victories by the West Coast's
Golden Bears and TCU's
Horned Frogs mean invita
tions to the Rose Bowl and
Cotton Bowl.
' The situation can become
confused, however, should
these teams drop their Satur
day encounters.
California (5-1) in the Pa
cific Coast conference, has to
beat hapless Stanford (2-7) to
wrap up a .Tournament of
Roses meeting with Iowa, Big
Ten champion. However,
Wisconsin
Picked to
End Second
Chicago-UPD-Wisconsin was
favored to finish the Big Ten
football season in. second
place by beating Minnesota
Saturday, and Purdue looked
like a good bet for third place.
The Badgers, who have won
four, lost one and tied one in
the conference, were a 14
point choice to get by the
Gophers and close with a 5-1-1
record, or only one tie worse
than the championship 5-1-0
slate of Iowa. '
Purdue, the league's best
defensive team, figured also
to be the better offensive
team in its battle with Indiana
Saturday for the Old Oaken
bucket. The oddsmakers have
made the Boilermakers 15
point favorites for a victory
that would give them a third
place finish with a 4-1-1 rec
ord. Em Picks
Northwestern and Illinois
were even picks in their bat
tle at Champaign with a first
division berth at stake. Each
has an identical conference
mark of three victories and
three defeats.
Ohio State was the favorite
by two touchdowns in its fi
nale with Michigan at Colum
bus, Ohio. The Buckeyes will
be seeking their fourth Big
Ten success against one set
back and two ties. The Wol
verines will be out for their
second victory over a confer
ence rival.
Iowa and Michigan State,
who finished their seasons
last Saturday on opposite ends
of the standings meet non
conference foes. "
The Hawkeyes were six
point favorites in their tradi
tional tussle with Notre Dame
and the Spartans, who failed
to win a conference game in
six starts, were 14-point selec
tions over Kansas State.

Rookie Elgin Baylor took
his AU-American talents to
Minneapolis and now is mak
ing his presence felt in the
National Basketball associa
tion. Baylor, the Laker fresh
man from Seattle university,
took over the NBA scoring
lead Thursday night as he led
Minneapolis to a 121-102
comeback victory over Syra
cuse. Dropping in 37 points, Bay
lor pushed Detroit's George
Yardley out of the top spot by
posting a 322 total for the sea
son, 15 more than the Pis
ton's 1957 - 58 NBA scoring
king.

Washington State and Oregon
State are only a half a game
behind the Bears and can be
come the PCC leaders if they
win and Stanford upsets Cali
fornia. To further confuse the issue,
if all three lose and Southern
California beats UCLA, the
Trojans and Bears then will
be tied for the loop lead.
TCU can avoid similar con
fusion in the Southwest con
ference by beating Rice. An
upset by the Owls will force
a delay in naming the Cotton
Bowl entry until the following
Saturday.
Bowl Prestige on Lin
The Air Force Academy,
West Virginia, Syracuse and
Clemson put their bowl pres
tige on the line as they try
to cement New Year's Day
berths.

whose tie with Iowa mars a

Pro Player
President
Airs Gripes
Green Bay, Wis.-ICPD-Play-er
representative Billy How
ton today threatened National
Football League Commission
er Bert Bell and team owners
with "extreme measures" if
they continue to disregard
previous promises on such
things as a pension and play
er rights on bubble gum con
tracts. The Green Bay Packers'
end, who is president of the
NFL Players association, ac
cused Bell of a "lot of conver
sation" and no results on play
er demands. He said owners
have been disregarding pre
vious promises to the associa
tion. Howton specifically accus
ed owner George Marshall of
the Washington Redskins of
being a "tightwad."
Howton said Bell and three
club owners last February
promised the association the
rights for selling players pic
tures in packaged bubble gum
would be turned over to the
players.
To Commissioner
"It (the money) all goes to
the commissioner now. They
are our pictures and we think
we should get the money. But
all we have received from
Bell's office is continuous in
terference," Howton said.
In referring to Marshall as
a "tightwad," Howton said
team owners last spring had
agreed to pay players $50 per
pre-season game above their
regular contracts.
Howton said members of
the Redskins have not been
paid yet for the games played
before the Sept. 28 start of the
season. He explained some
Redskins waived the money
in signing 1958 contracts for
higher salaries, "but not all
of them and they want their
money."
The Packer star said that
last spring the owners were
presented with proposals to
include a pension plan and
hospitalization and other ben
efits in contracts, "but we
haven't heard from them
since." He said the owners
also disregarded a proposal to
form a player-owner commit
tee to help resolve differences
between them.
