An estimated 335.000 persons will
turn out at four scattered sites
throughout the nation Monday to
watch college football's greatest
one-day show the New Year's
Day bowl games.
Millions of other fans given an
extra day this year to recover from
their holiday celebrating will
either watch or hear the games
via radio and television.
In the oldest of these "spectacu
lars," Michigan State ruled a one-
touchdown favorite to defeat UCLA
before 100.809 fans In the 42nd
Rose Bowl game at Pasadena,
Calif.
Oklahoma was a seven - point
choice over Maryland for Uieir
Orange Bowl clash before 76.062
at Miami, Fla.; Georgia Tech was
a one-touchdown pick to defeat
Pittsburgh before 82,895 fans in the
Sugar Bowl at New Orleans, and
Texas Christian was expected to
defeat Missmssippl by at least
seven points before 75,504 specta
tors in the Cotton Bowl at Dallas.
The Sugar Bowl game will be
carried by ABC radio-TV, while
CBS radio-TV will air the Orange
Bowl and NBC radio-TV will han
dle Uie Cotton Bowl. All three
games will start at 2 p.m.,EST.
Following the Cotton Bowl con
test. NBC will switch operations to
the West Coast to pick up the Rose
Bowl head-knocking for their radio
and televisioin audiences. This
game is scheduled to start at 5
p.m. EST.
The day's most Interesting game
Is expected to explode in the
Orange Bowl, where Maryland has
been waiting two' years to avenge
its upset by Oklahoma in the 1954
renewal. That season, Maryland
was considered the nation's top
team but fell before Bud. Wilkin
son's Sooners, 7-0. '
REVENGE GAMES
During the regular 1955 season.
Oklahoma emerged as the national
champion while Maryland wound
up in the No. 3 spot. So now the
Terrapins get a chance to knock
off the pretender to the crown.
UCLA also will be hunting re'
venge in Its Rose Bowl meeting
with Michigan State. The Uclans
bowed to Michigan State at Fasa
dena two years ago but feel "this
is the year" when they'll catch up
with their Big Ten rival.
Michigan State's multiple . of
fense, directed by "coach of the
year" Duffy Daughterty, features
the explosive running oi Eari Mor
rill, Clarence Peaks, Walt Kowal
csyk and Gerry Planutis. UCLA's
single wing offense is centered
around such fine backs as Sam
Brown, Bob Davenport, Jim Deck
er and the celebrated Ronnie
Knox.
The Cotton Bowl should present
the day's highest-scoring game.
TCU, paced by all-America Jim
Swink, averaged 29.1 points per
game during the 1955 campaign.
Ole Miss, with elusive Eagle Day
directing its attack, wound up its
regular season with a 25.1 point
average.
ENGINEERS RECORD
This game will find two old TCU
teammates directing their teams
from opposite sides of the field.
The Horned Frogs are coached by
Abe Martin, while Johnny Vaught,
his old sidekick during his under
graduate days, directs Ole. Miss.
Georgia Tech will carry an im
pressive post-season record into
the Sugar Bowl. The Engineers
have gone unbeaten in six bowl
games under coach Bobby Dodd,
but could run Into trouble against
Pitt, the East's leading team In
1955.

Tawney stepped across the center

play, he fitted ideally into the
Hayes . devised grind and crush
ground game.
Until Reichow departed with
less than three minutes to play,
there was nothing spectacular
about the East's triumph. It was
the four-yard, six-yard, three-yard
pattern that Hayes' Buckeyes used
last fall.
Then Em Llndbeck. of Illinois,
came in. He set up one touchdown
with a pass Interception and scored
another on a short sprint just be
fore the gun banged.
The East scored the first time
it had the ball, rumbling 71 yards
in 18 playes with Reichow going
over from inside the one.
In the second quarter the bruis
ing attack resumed, this time
booming 54 yards in 15 plays.
Again, Reichow burst through the
middle for the final six inches.
Don Schaefer, Notre Dame full
back kicked both extra points.
Reichow, named the game's
most valuable player by sports
writers covering the game, was
replaced by Lindbeck and the II
lini back promptly set up one
touchdown' and scored another
himself.
The assist came when he picked
off a pass by USC's Jim Contratto
after a Juggle by fellow Trojan
Leon Clarke, and sped down the
sidelines 34 yards to the West 6.
It took Michigan's Tony Branoff
only one play to circle wide around
right end for the touchdown. Bran
off's conversion try was blocked.
Less than a minute showed on
the clock when Llndbeck cashed
his own touchdown. He scored on
a 9-yard sprint wide to the left.
This time Branoff ran for the extra
point.
Contratto also bad a hand In the
East's scoring. The Trojan quar
terback was trapped in the end
zone by Schaefer and a host of
East helpers as the fourth quarter
opened for a two-point safety.
The West's lone touchdown came
at the start of the second period.
Contratto, who went most of the
way at quarter for Coach Jess
Hill's charges, sparked an 11-play,
49-yard push. The tally was scored
by Preston Carpenter of Arkansas
on a 5-yard shot outside tackle.
Carpenter's try for the point was
wide. That made It 7-6 and It was
the only time the West was in the
ball game.
Stanford's center, Joe Long of
the West, was voted the outstand
ing lineman.

SIDELINES
TOMORROW, EIGHT OF THE BEST college football teams will
be sent through their paces in the four major bowl games, and in
each contest Uie prestige at stake is great.
From the Rose Bowl here on the Pacific slopes of the nation to
the Orange Bowl in sunny Miami, Florida, football fans are guaran
teed fine football. And the picture is about as even-steven as it
has ever been with the caliber of competition mat win oe naming on
the four gridiron fronts of the day.
Probably the game of the day will take place at Miami where two
undefeated and untied grid powers of the nation tangle in a fight for
the unofficial national crown. Oklahoma's all-powerful Sooners will
lock horns with the defensive deacons of Maryland, and before the
day is over, only one of the two will still reign undefeated. Coach
Bud Wilkinson's Sooners have already wrapped up the national cham
, pionship according to polls taken

Important battles are also awaiting Texas Christian University,
Mississippi, Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh in Cotton and Sugar Bowl
frays. Pregame favorites seem to be tabbed as TCU and Georgia
Tech, but the pigskin, although not alive, is always capable of taking
that screwy bounce, and just at the wrong times. If you don't think
so just ask Norm Van Brocklln and the Los Angeles Rams.
The galloping puiple ghost of TCU, Jim Swink, Is the number
one reason why the Horned Frogs are picked in the Cotton battle,
while Georgia Tech's speed and power up the middle is regarded the
best bet in the Sugar Bowl outing. With Pitt still Irked over a politi
cal move by a Georgia governor In asking Georgia Tech to withdraw
because Pitt had a Negro on its roster, the Panthers from the North
are not to be given a quick count.
Our picks are with the favorites Michigan State, Oklahoma, TCU
and Georgia Tech but keep your money, we also picked the Rams
last week.
WE STAND CORRECTED.
Thanks to Deb Addison for the information that Klamath County
has had one other AU-American other than John Witte, the 1955 INS
first-team tackle from Oregon State College.
We checked this past week with Dr. George Wright, the leading
sports informative oY Klamath Falls high school athletics, and found
that one other for sure gained All-American recognition on the gridiron
In the earlier days of the sport.
Dr. Wright passed on the news that Richard Shore Smith, whose
rather owned the Altamont Ranch, did gain the honor at Columbia in
1903. Smith graduated from Klamath High School (even before the
times of the Klamath County High School and Klamath Union High
School) in 1896, the year before Dr. Wright graduated.
But another former All-American, Ted Beckett, can not be claimed
by Klamath Falls. Beckett attended Riverside grade school for a
short time, but did not graduate from the local school, or attend a
Klamath high school. Instead Beckett was a student at Oroville, Cali
fornia, where he later enrolled and won football fame at California,
Although Witte is not the only AU-American as we did state, he is
the only A-A that has been a product of local football teams. When
Smith attended Klamath Falls High, there weren't enough atudents
to play football. ...

Best Team
NEW YORK I The unbeaten
and unchallenged San Francisco
Dons, champions of the ECAC
Holiday Festival tournament and
holders of an unhalted string of
36 consecutive victories, were
called today "the best college
basketball team I have ever !
seen." by Joe Lapchick. veteran ;
coach of the New York profession-
al Knickerbockers.
Lapchick. connected with the
game either as a player or coach
for some 35 years, was an inter
ested spectator at Madison Square
Garden Friday night as the dashing
Dons flattened a tough UCLA five
70-53 with ridiculous ease for their
third straight one-sided triumph.
The former star center of the
fabled original Celtics, generally
recognized as the greatest basket
ball ' team ever put together, un
hesitatingly called coach Fhll
Woolpcrt's San Francisco quintet
as better than the powerful Ken
tucky teams of the Lou Groza
Ralph Beard era, or the Oklahoma
A&M teams of Bob . Kurkland's
days.
As coach of St. John's, Lapchick
mnsterminded against those great
clubs, as well as Utah's whiz kids
of some 10 years ago, and the
splendid St. Louis teams with
Easy Ed Mflcaulcy. He also was

"I've got to call San Francisco
the best I ve ever seen," Lapchick
said Friday night. "Kentucky and
some of those other teams may
have been better offensively, but
none of them could compare with
Uie Dons on defense.
"That's because no team ever
had a player like Bill Russell. That
guy beats you on defense Just as
much as on offense. He disrupts
your entire style or play. This
team gives you Just one shot at the
basket and that's all. You never
get it again not until they score,
anyway."
