Norris-Weill Feuding
May Retire Marciano
By OSCAR PR A LEY
United Press Sports Writer
NEW YORK (UP) Boxing
Promoter Jim Norrls and Rockv
Marciano s manager, Al Weill, are
feuding today and the upshot very
well might be the heavyweight
champion's disgusted retirement
before he fights again.
Weill currently has Marciano on
a natlon-wldc personal appearance
and refereelng tour despite "Al
the Vest's" heart-breaking plea
that Marciano csn't fight again
before next summer because he is
making too much money.
.Norrls, whose promotional ,con-
tract with Marciano has expired,
wanted Marciano to fight in Febru
ary. The International Boxing Club
president feels that Marciano
should make his pesos in the ring
Instead of taking bows like an ac
tor. It makes you wonder who has
the monopoly.
Norrls always has been accused
of having a strange hold on the
sport. But It's a cinch he doesn't
pull the Wirings on Weill and
therefore, on Marciano.

SAN FRANCISCO (UP) This
Is the week of tradition and there
should be no effigy hangings, be
cause tne season winds up on the
gridiron iront.
Bo your old pigskin prophet
comes out oi timing to give you
one last sure-thing set of bets.
Us going to be hard to follow
comedian Sam Levinson In this
job. Bunny Sam picked every ma
jor
game correctly with the'
iccptlon of the Washington State
San Jose State tie last week. Of
course, he was in lucky Las Ve
gas, where that kind of picking
system wurks all the time (It savs
here).
So down to work for this week;
UCLA over Southern California:
It took such overlooked teams as
Minnesota and Stanford to burst
the use bubble. The Trojans Just
don't have it for the big ones. It
seems Jon Artiett notwithstand
ing. Of course, the Bruins are
without Ronnie (or Harvey), Knox.
But that just- means that 8am
(First Down) Brown should have
a Held day, getting to play the
lull game at tailback. By 13.
Stanlord over California: For
eight straight years the Indians
haven't been able to turn back
the Golden Bears, although they
have picked up a couple of tics.
But tills year California doesn't
appear to have the steam and the
inuians seem to rise to the big
occasions. So we'il take Stanford
by 2 points.
Oregon 8 I a t e over Oregon:
Coach Len Casanova has been In
the hospital and the Wcbtoots
aren't fcelmj loo well, either, alt
er their rout last week by Stan
lord. Young Tommy Prothro has
none a line coaching Job lor the
Beavers and his single wing
should roini) over Ihe Ducks. By 9
Washington over Washington
Slate; The Huskies may have
iheir troubles with some teams,
but at.Bir.st the Cougars It should
be a field day tradition or not.
You could pick WfrC. which has
won only one Rame. off compara

Bear, beat Washington and only
tied W8C1. But we ll take the Sc

Weill, meanwhile, is doing pret
ty good. He has a troupe on the
current Marciano tour in which,
on one card of five bouts, tour
of the participants were his war
riors. These are heavyweight J, T
Reed, middlewelghts Prankie
Bomblnni and Andy Watkins and
leatnerweight Paul Pacheco,
Maybe you never heard of them.
So then why are they doing the
boxing while Marciano goes along
as window dressing?
Weill has contended that Mar
ciano would make too much money
and Uncle Sam would take too
big a bite if the champ fouttht
too often. Then he. rigs" up such
an item as tne current tour to
keep the bank teller busy. It seems
inconceivable that the Rock is go,
ing along Just for the ride and
tile roast beef.
Without shilling for Norrls, it
seems that in this case he has a
point.
"We prefer to- have Marciano
fight, rather than travel around
referee," Norrls asserts. "All
activity in boxing revolves around
the heavyweight champion. Tile
sport received a tremendous shot
in the arm with the Archie Moore
fight and It would have been a
great lift to the sport to have a
bout in February."
February coming In the same
year as June, when Weill wants
Marciano to fight, the refusal can't
be a tax gimmick. The question
which arises is whether, possibly,
Weill Intends to freeze out the IBC
and promote Marciano's future fes
tivities himself. This, of course,
has no meaning to most of us on
the disinterested side when It
comes to who does the promoting.
But Marciano is a great cham
pion and certainly would prefer
to fight, rather than to participate
In one-night stands. Therein lies
the rub.
Marciano Is losing a great deal
of dignity In the process, and could
lose more In a promotional hassle.
He is a proud man and his wife
ex-Unri mnih. i. h
to quit boxing..
If the Morris-Weil feud breaks
Into the open and gets mstv.
Rocky Just might tell them both
to look for another big meal ticket.

NEW YORK I The next-to-last
glance at the crystal ball for the
winners of the weekly college foot
ball games.
Last week's figures: 37 correct,
13 wrong, ,740. For the season:
312 correct, 110 wrong, ,739.
This week's expected winners-,
Michigan over Ohio State: Not
much to chose between these two
Big Ten powers but the game will
be played on Michigan's field and
the Wolverines .know that if they
win they go W the Rose Bowl.
Notre Dame over Iowa: Iowa
has 14 good players, Notre Dame
has threetimes that many.. But It
could be- close.- - '
. Maryland over George Washington:-
Only the Florida team of
early season has made George
Washington look badly on the field.
The Colonials' defense is rugged
but Maryland has enough to pierce
it.'
Michigan State over Marquette:
In a breeze. . .
UCLA over Southern California:
If the season doesn't end soon.
UCLA may run out of able-bodied
backs. Even if Ronnie Knox and
Bob Davenport are shelved, the
Uclans want to go on to the Rose
Bowl .with' a victory over their
arch-rivals.
Texas Christian over Rice: Jim
Swink of TCU gets the same
reverence In Texas as a 10,000
barrel oil well.
Auburn over Clemson: How can
a team with Fob James and Joe
Childress ever lose?
West Virginia over Syracuse:
The angry Mountaineers, dumped
last week by Pittsburgh, take it
out on Syracuse. But the New
Yorkers are rugged and could win.
Yale over Harvard: That Yale
line, with powerful Phil Tarasovic
as the bossman, to decide.
Tennessee over Kentucky;" A
spot tor an upset.
EAST: Pittsburgh over Penn
State, Columbia over Rutgers, Bos
ton University over Temple, Holy
Cross over Connecticut, Delaware
over Bucknell, Lehigh over Lafay
ette, Princeton over Dartmouth.
SOUTH: Duke over Wake Forest,

ANN ARBOR, Mich. Wl More
than half a century of bitter foot
ball feuding, will be jammed Into
60 hectic minutes Saturday as Ohio
oiaie ana Micnigan turn everyone
loose to decide the Big Ten title
and Rose Bowl bid.
Michigan's- thundering horde can
win both these prizes with a vic
tory over .the Buckeyes and their
"one-man gang," All America How
ard (Hopalong) Cassady.
But Ohio State would like' noth
ing better than to sting the pride
of its traditional rival by sending
Michigan's younger "brother,"
Michigan State, to the Rose Bowl.
The Buckeyes could do this and
keep the Big Ten title to them
selves for the second straight year
with a victory over Michigan.
Both teams have the incentive.
They are by tradition the powers
of the Western Conference. Their
series dates to 1897, Michigan lead
ing wlUi 34 victories, 14 losses and
4 ties.
The Wolverines will be about a
touchdown favorite but previous
records don't figure much In this
rivalry. .
The game has been a 97,239 seat
sellout since early October. Some
4,000 Ohio rooters are coming to
the game by five special trains.
Tickets are scarce and Ann Arbor
police and Municipal Judge Fran
cis L. O'Brien have warned they
will crack down hard on scalpers.
The going price Is high. Some
reports indicate S4 single tickets
are selling from $15 to $20 while
