the other in regular season would
get the bid under precedent. But
if there is a three-way tie, a team
would have to be picked by the
Cotton Bowl. This might be
simple if Texas, Rice and TCU
tied because Texas has beaten
both Rice and TCU in regular
season play. Otherwise, it would
be something to warrant the ser-
vices of a Solomon.
TCU gained the threshold last
vzeek by beating Rice 22-6 while
Baylor stayed in the race with a
narrow 14-13 victory over South-
ern Methodist. Both games ex-
ceeded their thrills only by rough
play. At Fort Worth there were
23 penalties for 247 yards and
numerous other penalties that
did not go into the records be-
cause they were either declined
or offset each other. At Waco,
a dozen penalties for 148 yards

Texas would tie for the champ-

then TCU and Rice would tie’ for

Rice tied, Texas Christian lost

as beat A&M—TCU, Baylor and

. Second team selections were: Harold Williams, Grand Prairie,
and Lloyd King, Gainesville, ends; Bud Trenholm, Irving, and Jack
Leigh, McKinney, tackles; Jack Martin, Grand Prairie, and Frank
Stover, Grand Prairie, guards; Joe Williams, Greenville, center;
Jimmy Sweeney, Paris, Ward Kuykendall, McKinney; Howard
Perdue, Irving, Paul Wayne Ernst, Grand Prairie, and Carlos
Wright, Greenville, backs.
The News adds that the team was selected on the basis of per-
formance against the Paris team, which to our way of thinking it
amounts to only an all opponent team, and not a fair means of se-
lecting an All-District eleven.
Though we have seen the Leopards play each of the 3-AAA
teams this season, we do not feel qualified to select an All-Dis-
trict team, but will consider the coaches’ All District eleven
now being compiled by the Dallas Morning News as the offi-
cial mythical team of the circuit. This team will be named by
polling coaches at each of the member schools, and to our way
of thinking is the only logical and fair way to bestow such
honors.
For instance, in their performance against the Leopards we
would certainly select Ward Kuykendall over his McKinney team
mate, Bobby Cogburn, also Paul Wayne Ernst over fellow Gopher,
Don Carpenter, and Howard Perdue in preference to his Irving
backfield mate, Don English.
When listing the Leopards who completed their grid careers
at, Greenville last Thursday, we neglected to mention Charles
Crawford, whom we mistakenly thought was classified as a junior.

Detroit Lions
Are On Top in
Pro Grid Race
NEW YORK, Nov. 26 (A)—The
Detroit Lions want you to know
their youthful coach, Buddy Par-
ker, knew what he was talking
about when he said “If somebody
beats the Chicago Bears, we’ll
win the title in the National con-
ference of the National Football
league.”
Look at the standings today
and you’ll see what the Lions
means. Detroit tops the Nation-
al conference with a record of
six victories, two defeats and
one tie.
The Bears and Los ' Angeles’
Rams are deadlocked for second
place with six wins and three
setbacks each. And they meet
next week in another one of the
the campaign in their annual
grudge game Thursday at Col-
lege Station.

The shift in the standings
started last Thursday when the
Lions defeated Green Bay, 52-

Here is the schedule for the
first round:
Class AAAA—Friday: Arling-

! with the Rams and Bears. Then
yesterday the Cleveland Brovzns
and Washington Redskins gave
the Lions a helping hand.
The Browns defeated the
Bears, 42-21, to strengthen their
position at the head of the Amer-
ican conference with an 8-1 rec-
ord while the Redskins pulled
the surprise of the day by down-
ing the Rams, 31-21.
Meantime, the New York
Giants remained at the Browns’
heels by shutting out the Chi-
cago Cardinals, 10-0.
In. other games, the winless
New York Yanks struck from be-
hind in the last quarter to tie
the San Francisco 49ers, 10-10,
and the Pittsburgh Steelers nip-
ped the Philadelphia Eagles, 17-
13.
Dub Jones, formerly of Tulane,
was the big gun in the Browns’
attack, scoring six touchdowns to
equal a league single game

nie Nevers while playing with
the Cardinals in 1929. Nevers’

As expected Grand Prairie’s championship Gophers domi-

starting line-up. They are Guy Lancaster, left tackle; Jimmy
Smith, center; and Jimmy Brewer and Don Carpenter in the
backfield.
. Surprisingly enough, the Gophers’ Paul Wayne Ernst was rele-
gated to the second team. Irving placed three on the team—Rich-

heavy favorites but Lamar is
only an even choice against a
Baytown team that has come on
like a steam-roller.
The other first round game in
Class AAAA matches Arlington
Heights (Fort Worth) w i t h
Woodrow Wilson (Dallas). Arl-
ington Heights won seven, lost
two and tied one; Woodrow Wil-
son won seven and lost three.
Because Woodrow beat Sunset
(Dallas), a team that tied Arl-
ington Heights, the Dallas cham-
pion probablv will be a light fa-
vorite over Arlington.
Grand Prairie is the only un-
defeated. untied team in Class
AAA but it definitely is not the
favorite. Temple, whose only
loss was to mightv Bay town, is
the No. 1 choice. But in the up-
per bracket, Breckenridge gets
the hod and is considered the
most likely team in the finals
against Temple.

completed 93 out of 189 for 1,239
yards and has a game to play—
against Rice at Houston Satur-
day. The record is 110 comple-
tions for 1,733 yards, set by
| Davey O’Brien of Texas Chris-
tian in 1938.
Isbell would have to gain al-
most 500 yards to beat O’Brien’s
mark.
Fred Benners of Southern
Methodist is second in passing

In ball-carrying. the leaders

Lippman of Texas A&M tops the

99 carries but the record is 1,302
yards, set in 1950 by Bob Smith
of Texas A&M. Second to Lipp-
man is Teddy Riggs of Rice with
623 yards on 113 runs.
Isbell is the only two-division
leader. He tops in total offense
with 1,239 yards on 229 plays.
Lamar McHan of Arkansas is

The No. 1 punter is Jerry Nor-

Bill Howton of Rice leads in

jority.
TCU’s fired up line blasted
Rice thither and yon, twice

harassing the Rice passers like
bumble bees and all-in-all keep-

Southern Methodist missed a
touchdown by a pass-receiver be-
ing out of the end zone by a
step, fumbled away a possible
thouchdown and in general made
it a hectic afternoon for the gold-
en Bears. Cosimo Brocato, a de-
fensive back, furnished the mar-
gin of victory — he kicked two
extra points while Sam Stollen-
werck missed one for SMU.
Brocato now has won two games
and tied one with his toe — he
beat Arkansas with a field goal
and brought a tie with Texas

Arkansas wound up the sea-

conference an intersectional rec-
