Pigskin Finale Br HALE SCARBROUGH About a month ago we made our selections for the many bowl games and are sticking by them though tho whole affair crashes around our ears. We picked Alubumu to wal lop southern Cat In the Rose Bowl by two touchdowns 14 points on the contention that, no matter what anyone thinks of south eastern compe tltlon, tho aver mi a a a team that Alabamn play ad this year was Just as good as tho uv- me team Southern Cul played and tho Crimsons didn't run up 40 and B0 points a game picking dais ies. Also, though the Trojans do have a huge bunch of line men, SEC teams don't pack their lines with foatherwolghts. We also picked St. Mary's aver Oklahoma A&M and It'll be an upset If it comes out that way. Bob Fenlmore Is a better back than Herman Wedemeyor, but only five touchdowns were cored over Gaels this year and you can't Ignore that. This cor ner's other selections have Mis souri over Texas, Holy Cross aver Miami, Denver over New Htxloo, Georgia over Tulsa, Fresno State over Drake and the East over tho West at San Francisco. The choice of Missouri" to beat Texas Is probably a bum steer as the Tigers lost to Min nesota 34-0 and to Ohio State 47-6, but we still like 'em. No guarantee goes with any of these selections. Those Pelicans After last Saturday's game there can be no doubt that the Pelicans are getting to be a top drawer high school basketball team and may be on their way to conference and possible state recognition. The first five, Jim Palmer, Gene Hover, Leroy Coleman, Ray Craig and Jerry Thorne, comprises a r a n g y, fast and clever passing and scoring com bination capable of playing four quarters ,at full speed and that's how the Pels took Long view into camp. After the first few mltiiites of the third quar ter the Lumberjacks wero run ragged and the Pelicans sot their own paco. The only thing that kept tho K-men from leading the game U the way was terrible shoot ing on charity passes. Writing At Random The reason the rassllng date has been changed from Friday to Tuesday is that Friday night cards always conflict with high school sports events , , . the next bouts will be January 8. Wally Moss Is - a lucky guy ... he got a ticket for a new ear for Xmas . , . Art Vermont, marine basketball star, got mar ried for Xmas . . . Tho basin cage loop Is still looking for a leader . . . sponsors and teams are no problem any longer, but the rub comes In getting some one to do the necessary work of scheduling, arranging for floor space, getting officials and keeping books ... And the biggest duck ' and goose shooting of them all ends at 4:35 p. m. today , . . not many days after shotgun shells began to be prominently dis played on dealers' shelves. MKDCB0 3 Pels Topple Longview By 39-33 K-Mon Win In Walk After Hoctic Half On KUHS Hardwood After the lead swapped hands several times, the Pelicans lumped on a tired Longview, wash., quintet with both feet In the third and fourth quarters to win 30-33 and gong away Satur day night on tho KUHS maple. It was the Lumberjacks' only defeat of their current southern touc and their second loss of the season. The win put the Pels' record at eight and one, Including four wins In a row, and indicated that the K-men may be of champion ship caliber this year. Long view had just beaten Roseburg, Grants Pass and Mcdford. Jim Palmer started Saturday night's scoring by taking a re bound off the Lumberjack back board and dashing the length of the court for a counter when the game was just seconds old. Then tho visitors' took over temporar ily. Bob Gambold sank a free throw, Gene Burke looped In a goal, Dewey Doe got the next one and Gordon Ferrell contri buted a ringer, putting the Lumberjacks ahead 7-2. Palmer rang up two goals for the Pels and Leroy Coleman dropped one In to give the Pels the lead, 8-7. Ferrell then hit a couple, 11-8. Ferrell was the fastest man on the floor, and the Lumberjack defense tight ened up to keep the Pelicans far out on the floor. The quarter ended 13-B for Longview. A fellow named Jim Rosen zweig entered the game at guard for Longview and in three min utes had pushed the score to lu-iz. Liaie in tno second quart er Colemaa, Ray Craig, Bill Crawford and Palmer pitched ringers and the half ended 21- tA l.nmhiii-laflri1 fiufiP The third 'and fourth periods were - a Pelican party clear through, with Palmer. Gene Hover, Coleman, Craig and Thorne all scoring. After push ing the score into the thirties and giving themselves a nice lead,' the Pels managed to stall for the last four minutes of the game. Palmer and Doe went out on fouls. Palmer was again high man for the K-men, getting 14 points, and Coleman had 10. Ferrell and Rosenzwelg had nine and eight for the Lumberjacks.
