DALLAS M — The team
to meet the Southwest Conference
champion in the Cotton Bowl here
New Year's Day ia expected to be
named over the week-end.
Cotton Bowl officials wouldn't
say so but they obviously are wait-
ing for some results tomorrow be-
fore making the choice.
The list of prime eligibles has
been trimmed to four—Tennessee,
Pittsburgh, Mississsippi and Ala- _______
bams—with Tennessee considered regular season play,
the leader.
Mississippi, unbeaten but twice
tied, plays Maryland tomorrow.
Tennessee, once defeated, engages
Florida. Pittsburgh, twice beaten
but conqueror of Notre Dame,
takes on North Carolina State. Ala-
bama battles Georgia Tech, al-
-^El
Bobby Wants More
almost 200 per cent over what he
received during the past season for
winning 24 games while dropping
only seven for the fourth place
Athletics.
Shantz's 1952 salary was only
$12,000 as he topped the American
league pitchers in games won and
finished high up in thhe earned-run
average column.
Bobby Bought to talk contract
with Ehlers last week but the A's
general manager told ths little
htirler:
“Let’s not talk contract now. I’ve
got to see X-rays of your broken
wirst first. I don’t want to sign a
pitcher without an arm.’
Shantz fractured a left wrist bone
in the final week of the past
season.
Ehlers* refusal to talk contract
at that time probably will cost the
Athletics several thousand dollars.
For since then the 27-year-old
southpaw has received the league’s
highest honor—the first time a non-
championship club player has won
the award since Ted Williams of
Boston in 1949. The last Philadel-
phian to be honored was Jimmy
Foxx in 1933.
Shantz received 16 of the possible
24 first place votes cast by two
dozen members of the Baseball
Writers Association of America. He
rolled up a total of 280 votes for *
wide margin over Allie Reynolds,
ace of the New York Yankees
pitching staff.

Howard Grubbs, secretary of the
Cotton Bowl, wouldn’t say exact-

or that’ll be all. But a TCU victo-
ry could do a lot of things. It
might even put Texas Christian
in the Cotton Bowl.
As Texas and TCU settle their
annual gridiron feud. Southern
Methodist will be fighting to stay
in the championship running. The
Methodists will be playing venge-
ful Arkansas at Fayetteville. SMU,
loser of one game, might wind up
in a tie for the title but can’t af-
ford to drop another one along the
way to do it.
Texas A&M and Rice, already
out of the championship race, get
together in what should be a steady
touchdown exchange at College
Station. Rice will be fighting to
stay out of the cellar, a place re-
served for Arkansas if the Razor-
backs lose to SMU as expected.
Bpt Rice could tie the Porkers for
last place if it didn't win any more
games.

from Southern Mothodist University in the Eagles’ last-scheduled
contest of the season at 10 a.m. Saturday around the 2.4-mile
NTSC golf course.
Toxas Christian harriers may enter the meet, but Coach
Winton (Pop) Noah said they had not yet accepted the Invitation.
In previou, meets, SMU has topped the Eagle team only one
time by four pointe. The North Texas harriers have placed higher
then SMU In throe engagements.
Dale Imel, Ragle star, has won two three-way meet* and two
dual meets. His lots to James Blaine of Texas AAM in the Home-
coming meet last Saturday was the first time this season that
Imel finished out of first place.

_ W JDtOOn —
I road a novel by Gene Fowler tqo many yean ago to count
accurately and decided to he a newspaperman when I got older , . .
1 greil older and realized I should nave read Ayn Rand’s “Fountain-
bead” another time and become an architect or else never read it
and learned of individualism . .,
Some Of Them Were Close Though
This individualism will reverse and cut your throat—particularly
if your boss pays you to write sports wherein weekly selections of
grid winners are tabbed . . . Last week's picks bear this out: Result
• of being an Individual for Sportscope was four wrongs and one right
in the college and university division of contests played Nov. • . . -
However, had it been games of horseshoes rather than football we
would have been right up there ... We had Baylor «nd 39 seconds
was the difference there; Arkansas, another of our horses, made a
r_z_.tr: zrr '----------
wasn’t even close enough to mention In its downbill scrap with SMU
although the difference was only a touchdown ...
Monroe Is Not A Bad Subject
The one that shivers our timbers though, was—of course—North
Texas State and Texas Tech . . . Yep, we had another miss here, too.
Monday morning we went into a drug store for a genial coffee and
were greeted with sneers and leers ... All week people would stqp
and gather in small groups when we walked by. Then suddenly a long
arm with an accusing finger attached on the end would snap out of
the huddle and settle on our head . . . Whispers would drift: He’s the
one that picked Texas Tech ... A marked man—that’s us . . . Wonder
what Sam Spade would do in this situation . . He should be on tele-
vision-good man, Spade . Marilyn Monroe would increase the
sale of sets, too. Only thing though, some sharpie might break an
arm ia a fall after leaning over the top too far ; .■.
Don’t Trip On That Headguard...
. Quit changing the subject, Cope . . . You’re going to have to pick
'em somewhere in this thing . . . You’re tough, you can eome back-
now get out there and fight . . .
"tonight's High School Games:
Denton over Sherman (could be a tie)
Paris over McKinney (in a cake walk)
Denison over Gainesville (decides 3 AAA leader)
Lewisville over Bridgeport (Farmers tough at home)
Pilot Point over Azle (Bearcats needed this breather)
Lake Worth over Northwest (probably hurt our percentage
here)
Frisco over Leonard (13-B title bout)
Saturday's Games:
North Texas over Carswell (Down boy, don’t growl so)
TCU over Texas (he bit me on that jump)
Baylor over Houston (logical choice, we hope)
SMU over Arkansas (likewise)
Rice over Texas A4M (Graves is injured)
Now, that’s over. Let’s get back to Monroe . . .
Denton Seeks Third Loop Victory
A win for Denton over Sherman will keep the Brones in
scrap for the title and also give Coach Zeke Martin that .500 per-
centage we talked about back in September . . . Denison amt Gaines-
ville hook up in a battle of undefeated teams where a victory for
Gainesville will likely throw the loop into a dead heat three ways . . .
For Paris, after losing to Denison, will probably knock off Gainesville
later . . . I^wisville needs the Bridgeport victory to stay close to
Grapevine in the two-way battle for 10-A and’ Frisco meets Leonard
in a title scrap for 13-B . . . Both teams are undefeated in league
plav. Lake Worth beat Lewisville and the Farmers racked Northwest,
making Lake Worth the choice here . . . Pilot Point, according to
past scores, should find easy going with Azle, the winless member
of the league . . .
No Sleeping Pills Needed ...
Honest Injun, we weren't scared Into taking the Eagles over
Carswell . . . It’s just that the Mitcbellmen have made a believer
out of us . . . Still, it’s going to be a little harder to go to sleep
tonight thinking about all those big-time stars now carrying the
mail for the Bombers . . . What about TCU over Texas’—Shux, that
kind of picking puts everybody to sleep . . .
to Texas in being knocked out of jury received against Southern,
Methodist last week.
The Rice running game finally J
-vi.w uu.. urcuu* <«v wm- ha!* hit its peak and that means'
fortable about it. The Longhorns I the Aggies will have to score often
, x w.v became ninth in the nation this *
F<fr Texas Christian it's the last | week. That’s another thing TCU
anJ TTvrscVa mssat win w/vtslrl aninv romnvino
race, plays University of Houston,
i a Missouri Valley Conference
member, at Houston. This game
appears to be a tossup but the
Bears are likely to puncture the i
ironbound Houston defense sevrt-al'
times. One thing about the Bay-
lors: You may beat them but
they’ll make a lot of points.
A crowd of 45,000 is expected fori
this game, the biggest of the day. j
Texas-TCU is due to draw 33,000
with 20,000 at Fayetteville and j
probably that many at College Sta-
tion.
Just can't get off that .750 pace.
Our predictions last week again
hit three out of four. Maybe this
week will be a grand slaip.
Texas-Texas Christian at Fort
Worth—Look for a great ball game
with TCU in it all the way, but
Texas* all - around offensive
strength will friumph.
Rice-Texas A4M at College Sta-
tion-Rice is rolling at last; it will
continue against the Aggie: Rice
by two touchdowns.
Southern Methodist - Arkansas
at Fayetteville—Homecoming st
Arkansas will just mean more old
grads will be there to see the Rs-'
zorbacks lose: SMU three touch-
downs to two.
Baylor-University of Houston at
Houston—What the Bears will do
to that celebrated Houston defense
should be a scandal to the Jay-
birds: Baylor by a touchdown.

State Eagles lay in fuel for the
meeting with the Carswell Air

fine comeback before falling two points short of Rice, but Texas AAM yjje two riya]g of one year get
together at S p. m. in the NTSC
Stadium before an expected crowd
of 13,000-15,000.
Although the Eagles have
dropped three decisions in eight
games, NT coaches predict the
Flyer engagement will be the
toughest of the campaign.
Last year Carswell edged by 13-7
on the strength of Loyd Lowe’s
list quarter touchdown dash. Ix>we
learned his football under Mitch-
ell at NTSC, graduating two years
ago.
Ten Southwest Conference rep-
resentatives are packed on the
All-Star college Carswell squad.
Two All-Americans are included.
Bud McFadin of the University of
Texas and Buddy Sherrod of the
University of Tennessee . . .
Thursday coaches broke the No.
1 defense and offense into separate
groups, running each against re-
serve units.
One injury, a knee lock received
by Ken Carter, was reported.
Carter, running with the reserve
offense against the first defensive
squadron, went down mid-way of
the drill. He twisted the knee on
a center thrust.
Trainer Blaine Rideout could not
tell the extent of the injury but
Carter will probably be out for the
Carswell game.
Charlie Bowlin, defensive half-
back, also will be sidelined for
the Bomber game. Bowlin received
a cracked wrist in the Texas Tech
game.
As it Dow stands, Don Baker,
Ernie Marvel and Bill Rogers will
be in the deep secondary in de-
sense against the expected bom-
bardment by Vernon Glass, Cars-
well quarterback and passer.
Glass, who played his college
football at Rice, has thrown for
approximately 1,500 yards this
year and there is no reason to
believe he will not be flipping the
ball around a lot Saturday night.
Richard Harvey and Bobby
Hughes will handle NTSC’s aerial
arm with ends Ken Hall, Charlie
McGinty and Winton Criswell being !
the main targets.
Tommy Gray and Ralph Rey-
nolds will be at the offensive half-
backs and Ken Bahnsen will be
at his fullback station.
