The Yomiuri said the Giants, accompanied by a goodwill mis sion of 200 including San Fran cisco Mayor George Christopher, will arrive about Oct. 20 and play 18 games here, in Osaka and other parts of the country.

But Friday in the Sugar Bowl he answered his critics with a style of football they should have liked as the powerful Mis sissippians ripped LSU 21-0. Quarterback Bobby Franklin the game's most valuable player, who finished second in the Big Eight Conference, played the Southeastern Conference champi ons to a standstill Friday. Only the Tigers' failure to bottle up rubber-armed Francis Tarken ton on two occasions constituted the difference" as the two teams battled in a bruising contest. On those two occasions Tarkcn- ton rifled long passes down the middle to Bill McKenny and Aar on Box, respectively, for touch downs. D u r w a r d Pennington kicked the extra points and that was it: Georgia 14, Missouri 0. "We didn't play our best game," Georgia Coach Wally Butts said. "Our morale was not good. It def- inilcly was our worst game of the year." "We came down lo win,' but the best team won," said Missouri Coach Danny Devine. "We planned to rush the passer, and the two touchdowns they got were when their passer got away from our rustling." Rush the passer they did, with the result the Bulldogs completed only nine of 21 tosses for a total of 128 yards, far below their usual performance. Phil Snowden, the lanky Mis souri passer, was rated only so-so in comparison with Georgia s art ists. Snowden completed 11 of 17 for 152 yards, and the over-all Missouri passing record was 14 of 24 for 180 yards. Western Duo Skate Winners SQUAW VALLEY, Calif.

It set Mississip. pi off on its first of many drives Although the march didn't score, LSU was in a hole from it. Passes brought the Rebels, ranked second nationally, all three of their touchdowns against the third-ranked Tigers. Quarterback Jake Gibbs threw for the first score with less than one minute remaining in the first half. Both Vaught and LSU Coach Paul Dietzel described the play, good for 43 yards, as the turning point of the game. Franklin passed 19 yards to Larry Grantham in the third quar ter for the second touchdown and yards to George Blair in the fourth period for the last touch down. LSU, third in the final rankings, was a line bail ciun, vaugni saia, but undoubtedly suffered from its injury list. Ole Miss also got even with Billy Cannon, LSU's All-America halfback who was the hero of the first Ole Miss-LSU game with his storybook 80-yard touchdown punt' return in the fourth quarter. Like the other LSU players, he never could move past the Ole Miss tacklers. LSU wound up with minus 15 yards rushing. Hull. Bronco In Score Duel By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Chicago's Bobby Hull and Bos ton's Bronco Horvath head into the new year with only two points separating them in a duel for the National Hockey League scoring lead.

Elliott Nabs Weary Third SORRENTO, Australia (AP) - World record holder Herb Elliott in his first competitive run of the season, finished a weary third Sat urday in a slowly run 1.000-meter race. Competing on a rough, grass track and in a cold wind, Elliott looked only a shadow of his old self as he finished 15 yards behind the winner. His time was 2 minutes, 28 sec ondsand it took every ounce of energy that he had to run that. "I didn't expect to do much bet ter," said Elliott, whose world record for the mile is 3:45.5. "I just finished my first week ol real training and it left me very tired, but I'm not worried. There is a long time to go More Rome." He referred lo the 1960 Olympic Games at Rome in August. Schloredt, Fleming Trigger UW Victory PASADENA, Calif. (AP) The 13-ycar Rose Bowl pact between the Big Ten and the now defunct Pacific Coast Conference ended with a few touches of irony. Washington's young Huskies surprised favored Wisconsin 44-8 Friday to close out the series. Wisconsin was the only Big Ten team to have lost previously un der the just expired pact. The Badgers were whipped 7-0 by Southern California in 1953. Aside from Wisconsin's I960 and 1953 losses, the Big Ten teams made the annual New Year's Day trek look like a plague of locusts to West Coast fans. Washington's triggermen were a brilliant quarterback, Bob Schlo redt, and a speedy Negro half back, George Fleming. It was the Huskies' first triumph in five trips to Pasadena. Many of the 100,000 fans who sat in the chilly stadium were startled when the inspired Hus kies exploded for 17 points in the first quarter. "The turning point was when Fieminjj kicked that field goal and gave us a 10-0 lead," said Wash ington's Young (32) Coach Jim Owens. "That put us in control and Wisconsin began to press." Owens said the key lo victory Rides Cloud Nine Jim Owens, Huskies On Top Of PASADENA, Calif. (UPI) - Washington coach Jim Owens descended from the "cloud nine" reserved for Rose Bowl winners to make a New Year's wish. I just hope they improve and I'm not being facetious," the youthful Owens told reporters after Friday's 44-8 triumph over Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl. "They" referred to the predom inantly junior squad which will return in the regular 1960 cam paign. "I'm on top of the world, said Owens after an uproarious cele bration in the Washington dress ing room. Silent only for a mo ment of prayerful thanks, the Husky squad erupted in shouts and cheers and mutual admira tion. Co-players of the game George Fleming and Bob Schlo redt were lifted to the shoulders of their teammates and rocked back and forth. No one needed a program to know Wisconsin had lost. The Badgers sat quietly in their dress ing rooms as coach Milt Bruhn and his assistants offered words of encouragement. "Fumbles and mistakes hurt us and they scored when we were down," said Bruhn in sum ming up reasons for the loss. He said Washington had more speed than he anticipated and believed the turning point of the game was George Fleming's 53-yard punt return in the first period. The TD run made it 17-0. Owens, almost mobbed by his players after the game, credited his team with "tremendous ball. I felt beforehand our boys would win it if they prepared them selvesand they did. "It was a real wonderful day for us," he went on. "We got off to a good start, slackened off a bit and then came on strong. Our pass protection was good. That was something I had wor ried about."

(UPI) - Pink elephants real ones showed up here New Year's Day during halftime festivities at the Orange Bowl football game.

The elephants were sprayed with pastel paint ot varied shades including pink to add color to the show. was Washington's smaller but farter line which manhandled the Badger offense all afternoon. "Washington was just more ag gressive than we were much more aggressive," said Wiscon sin Coach Milt Bruhn. Wisconsin handed the ball over on fumbles four times. Coach, Bruhn blamed the bobbles on "just good hard tackling nothing else." Schloredt and Fleming named the game's most valuable play ers wrecked the Badgers in the opening quarter. Schloredt marched the Huskies 48 yards in 10 plays for a touchdown and Fleming kicked a 36-yard field goal and ran back a punt 53 yards for a touchdown before the Badg ers knew they were in a ball game. "We came down here to win and that's what we did," said Fleming, who picked up 122 yards on three punt returns. "Our line was the difference said the modest Schloredt. "We out-hit 'em and outfought 'em all the way." To the complete amazement of the some 100,000 chilled fans, the gallant band of juniors from the Northwest racked up two touch downs and a field goal for 17 points In the first quarter. The World The 32-year-old coach of the Huskies said Wisconsin was very similar" to the Southern California team which handed his squad its only defeat. "However, think Southern California had more speed," he said. Dale Hackbart, hard-pressed by the Washington defense, drew words of praise from the Husky coach. "He's as good as we an ticipated, but as I said before, it was just our day. Bruhn didn't argue with that although he .said he still felt Wisconsin could cortie back from its 24-8 halftime. "But they were much more aggressive than we were. The Washington line took off like a machine, not particu larly as individuals." The Badgers also had more fumbles four than in any other game. 'The Huskies were really up," he said. Washington rubbed salt in the Wisconsin wounds by showing such disdain that the Huskies kicked occasionally on third down. 'We were just using our kick-, ing game, said Owens, we naa our lead so we decided to give them the ball and play defense.1 Pasadena Tilt Top Gate Bv United Press International A total of 333,093 persons turned out for Friday's four major bowl games, with the Rose Bowl again emerging as the .top gate attrac tion.

(AP) - A one-time Whittier College football player who never won a letter did a bit of quarterbacking from the stands during the Rose Bowl game. It was the seventh Rose Bowl game for Vice President Richard M. Nixon and despite the nippy weather, he enjoyed it immense ly. Nixon, grand marshal of the New Year's Day Tournament of Roses, sat across the aisle from Rose Queen Margarethe Bertel son. "Who you rooting for?" asked Miss Bertelson, a transplanted Minncsotan now attending Pasa dena City College. "I'm neutral as vice president," Nixon replied. "But as a Califor- nian, I'm for the West." At one point, he commented to the queen: "Wisconsin's playing too cautiously, that's why they're losing. Just look at (Washington quarterback Bob) Schloredt. He's a great player. He runs the team like (pro quarterback John) Uni tas. Washington's playing like the pros." 'You sure know a lot about football," Miss Bertelson de clared. "I should," Nixon laughed. "I sat on the bench for four years next to the coach while I was at Whittier." Husky Official Looks To '60 SEATTLE (AP) - The Univer sity of Washington Huskies want a chance to go back to the Rose Bowl again next year. . The Seattle Times said the U. W.'s athletic director, George Briggs, plans to ask the Big Five to start fresh on the rule prohibit ing a Coast team, from succeeding itself in the Rose Bowl. Under Pacific Coast Conference regulations no team could go to the big bowl twice in succession But the Washington-Wisconsin game In which the Huskies tri umphed 44-8 was the last game under the old conference setup. "It's a brand new start with a new conference and a new con tract," said Briggs, referring to the fact that the new Big Five will send the future representatives to the annual game. Big Five members have said they favor another tie with the Big Ten. All of Washington's starting eleven will be back for another year. Ten of the eleven are juniors and one.

Mighty Sraycuse 'IT Whacks Texas, 23-14 DALLAS, Tex. (AP) Any pos sible doubt that Syracuse was the nation's best should have been dispelled Friday by what Ernie Davis and his males did to Texas in the Cotton Bowl. Syracuse won 23-14. The Orangemen certainly proved they were national cham pions as they finished the season with a perfect record of 11-0 and a victory that never was in doubt after 1:23 of the first period. It was that long belore . oer Schwedes threw a pass to Davis that covered 87 yards and set a major bowl record. Royals Halt Celtics Bid For Record DETROIT (AP) The Cincin nati Royals may have made good on a New Year's resolution Fri day night, smashing the Boston Celtics' bid Tor a new National Basketball Assn. consecutive vic tory record. The Royals certainly had need for such a resolution, having been personal doormats for the fabu lous Celts since last season. But the Cincinnati team gained re venge for 13 losses in a row to Boston by coming from behind for a 128-115 victory, snapping the Celtics' winning streak at 17 games. The Celtics loss was the high spot of a doubleheader in which the host Detroit Pistons ended a six-game victory famine by trim ming St. Louis 119-107. At Min neapolis, Syracuse pinned i fourth-straight loss on the Lakers 109-98. For Boston, it was the first loss since Nov. 28. But Coach Red Auerbach will get his name in the record books twice anyway He was coach of the Washington Capitols who set the standard at 17 straight victories in the 1946-47 season. The Celts started off with a rush. They held a 34-26 lead at the end of the first quarter as Bill Sharman hit for 17 points. Then the Royals started to move, with league-leading scorer Jack Twyman and Phil Jordon showing the way. Twyman was high man for the game with 40 points, Jordon post ed 31. The Cincinnati move began when Boston's Big Bill Russell ran into foul trouble early in the game. The rebounding star was lifted in the second quarter after picking up his fourth personal. While Russell rode the bench, the Royals rode the Celtics out of the game. Gene Shue dumped in 28 points as the Pistons gave Dick McGuire his first victory since becoming coach last Monday. Syracuse, paced by George Yardley and Dolph Schayes, han dled the slumping Lakers with ease. Quartet Races Around Tahoe STATELINE, Nev. (UPI) - While most folks were raising their glasses to toast the start of the New Year, four California athletes celebrated with a unique relay race around the 78 mile shore line of Lake Tahoe. The relay team completed the marathon run in eight hours, 38 minutes and 56 seconds with the temperature at six degrees below zero. One runner, possibly upset by the new year, took a wrong turn and ran on highway 89 for a while. Otherwise, the time would have been faster. The team was composed of Les Dabritz, former College of Pacif ic star from Modesto; Jerry Laird of the Santa Clara Youth Village, Frank Wulftange Jr. and Jack Marden, both of San Jose State. High Jump Star Planning Return BOSTON (AP) - John Thomas, Boston University's Olympic high jump hope, will return to compe tition after a nine-month layoff in the 34th Knights of Columbus track meet Jan. 16 at Boston Garden. The 18-year-old who surpassed the world record with a 7 - foot, m-inch effort in the National AAU indoor meet last February, has been sidelined by an injury caused by jamming his left foot and ankle in an elevator door. Surgery and skin grafts followed. Doctors later pronounced t h c wounds perfectly healed. John Galbreath, president of the Pittsburgh Pirates, has nominated nine yearlings for the 1960 Sapling, a stake for 2-year-olds at Mon mouth Park, Oceanport, N.J. Syracuse also showed it was not averse to a good fight because the Orange bench emptied late in the second period when punches were being thrown on the field and the players joined a mass of milling, shoving, brawling fellows out about the 50-yard line. A holding call against Syracuse annarently precipitated the fisti cuffs but the players on both sides said there was too much talking back and forth. Syracuse players accused Texas of calling its Ne gro tackle, John Brown, "a dirty nigger." Players on both sides hinted at dirty play. Davis easily earned the award as outstanding back. He scored 16 points with two touchdowns and two 2-point conversions and his in terception of a pass set up the other Orange touchdown. Davis then ran 21 yards to put the ball on the Texas three and Schwedes scored. The victory was a vindication for Syracuse. The Orangemen had never won a bowl game before al though given three chances. Cannon Rhubarb Brewing PHOENIX, Ariz.

He was unavailable for com ment Friday night. C. S. (Bud) Adams, Houston Oiler owner, said Cannon signed a contract with Adrian Burke, Ad ams' attorney, shortly after the Sugar Bowl game. After hearing that Houston re portedly had signed Cannon, Ro zelle said, "I can't say when Can non signed with us because this thing might reach the courts, but we do have a binding contract with Cannon and we intend to en force it." Need Program Said For Loss BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) - Is the Big Ten declining as an athletic power because of itj need" program for helping ath letes? Indiana University's football coach, Phil Dickens, thinks so aft er watching the 44-8 pasting Washington handed Wisconsin Fri day in the Rose Bowl. "This is the result of the 'need' program," Dickens said Saturday on his return from Pansadena. "The Big Ten no longer can at tract the same number of top flight athletes under its aid pro gram as other schools operating under NCAA rules only. 'We've set ourselves back with our recruiting rules, and it's go ing to get worse. Our drop in cal iber was concealed in playing against ourselves, and it took a game like this to show everyone what is happening." Under the Big Ten's "need program, inducements to athletic prospects are determined partly by the prospects' own financial resources. No prospect can be offered more than room, board, tuition and books, plus $15 monthly for laundry. If he was in the upper quarter of his high school class, he can be offered this regardless of his family's resources. If not, he may be offered less if he of his family has enough money.
