MEN who know bourbon know what It takes to
achieve the delicious extra-smooth, extra
rich taste of Old Jordan Straight Bourbon Whiskey.
VVe stick to the old methods that take more time,
more care the "low" way we started 100 years
ago. We still buy premium grains. Use more of
them to a gallon. Simmer our mash slowly. That'e
how we get such extra smoothness, extra richness,

NEW YORK, Nov. 22 OP)
Closing the books on the 1941
football guessing contest:
Army-Navy: This should be
one of the best games of the
year. Army seems to cash in
more frequently on its oppor
tunities. However, the Cadets
appear sadly over-matched with
respect to man-power and this
ballot goes to Navy.
Fordham - New York Univer

pened in this rivalry but the im
agination simply can't conceive
of an NYU victory. Fordham, de
cisively. '
Tennessee Vanderbilt: Not
easy, for Tennessee has been
coming along steadily in recent
weeks, still the records can't be
ignored and this nod; goes to
Vanderbilt.
Tulane-Louisiana State: This Is
in-and-out Tulane's week to be
out" but we'll run the risk.

Dalles-Medford Clash May Decide
'A' Title; Amity, Newport Meet
By GORDON MACNAB
Two mythical state high school football titles may be decided
Friday as the waning season ends.
At The Dalles there's a yes-and-no tinge to the championship
angle of the night game between unbeaten The Dalles and once
beaten Medford.
Myrtle Point, which has laid
its moleskins In moth balls, holds
the "no" vote. Undefeated in
"A" class play, it has a claim
to a share in the title even if
The Dalles wins from Medford.
It will stand alone if the Indians
are toppled by the Black Tor
nado. There has been no dissenting
voice raised thus far to the con
tention that the winner of the
Friday afternoon game between
Amity and Newport will have
clear claim to the "B" title.
Two other games, with no
championships at stake, have
significance to local followers, at
least. - J'i T
Mac Hi of Milton-Freewater,
Blue Mountain league champ,
invades Albany Friday night for
a cross-state encounter and Leb
anon goes to Corvallis, definitely
the under-dogi in a renewal of
their annual battle.
Texas Ag-Couger
Cancellation Said
'Ridiculous'
TACOMA, Nov. 27 OP) Re
ports from New Orleans suggest
ing Texas A. & M. might cancel
its December 6 engagement with
Washington State in Tacoma to
take a Sugar bowl bid were
branded as "ridiculous" Wednes
day by Earl Foster, WSC gradu
ate manager.
"It is unfortunate, but such
errors seem to require squelch
ing every season," said Mr. Fost
er. "There isn't one speck of
truth to the report. We have an
iron-clad contract with the Ag
gies. They will be here on De
cember 6. Count on that."
Tulane.
Mississippi - Mississippi State:
Conference title hinges on this
one. On backfield strength, Miss
issippi. Georgia Tech-Georgia: Frank
Sinkwich should be enough to
put this one in the win column
for Georgia.
Stanford-California: This could
spell troublo for Stanford but
the Indians still have a chance
for the Rose bowl and rate the
nod. '
Oregon-Oregon State: Oregon
State needs this one to be vir
tually certain of the Rose bowl
assignment. It figures to be a
duel of Oregon offense and Ore
gon State defense. Strictly out
of tho hat, Oregon.
Rice-Baylor: Stringing with
Rice.'
