i Gamblers apparently had learn- i
ed of Williams' selection before it j
was publicly announced and Frick I
said, “hereafter, I would suggest'
that the announcement be made j
immediately after the votes have
•been counted. That should elimi- I
nate much cf the betting through '
leaks.’’
Frick added,
writers should vote for the most
valuable player after the season is
finished instead of the last week of
the season.'‘
According to Smith, Frick's sec-
ond suggestion had been consider-
ed previously but the writers de-
cided it would be unfair to players
who did net participate -in the
World Series if the voting was done
following the season instead, of
during it. ‘ "*
Frick’s suggestion, however, will
be entertained j^hen the Baseball
Writers Association holds its an-
nual meeting here, Dec. 13.
There were various reports that
one local bettor had won $40,003
because he knew of Williams' se-
lection before the announcement
was made officially in the newspa-
pers.

two undefeated-untied
x California in the Rose Bowl
and Oklahoma in the Sugar
Bowl .each for the second
straight year, are undefeated
this year. California plays once
beaten, twice-tied Ohio State,
and the Sooners meet twice '
whipped LSU.
Apparently the College of
Pacific will be one cf the un-
defeated. untied and uninvited
teams, barring a major upset
against the University of Ha-
waii. The team has wen 10
straight and counted 500 points
against only 66 for the oppo-
sition. It appears that the big
schools want no part of Paci-
fic for fear of 'losing face
against a small team, and the 1
smaller schools figure they »
have no chance at all.

Most of the major bowls

Why. these fans ask, should SMU
be less an underdog than North
Carolin*, a team with a Cotton
Bowl bid and record superior to the j
Mustangs? The Tarheels were ■
“spotted” 30 points prior to their
tilt with Notre Dame.
SMU, they point out* has been
beaten three times and tied once r
while giving up almost as many
touchdowns as they could muster
themselves. And, today, there was
serious doubt that All-American,
Doak Walker would play.
Thgse angles revived the talk
J that Notre Dame is scaring away,
future opponents by running up *
humiliating scores.
Notre Dame, however, announced
eariier in the season that its
schedule was full for several years
and that there as a waiting list j
for any future openings.
Those persons talking in such J
terms point out what happened to |
Notre Dame’s relations with Tulace
when the Irish virtually massacred
the New Orleans Green Wave.
Immediately after its defeat, Tu- (
lane announced it would not renew
contracts for a continuance of:
playing relations with the South [
Bend school.
Prior to.the game, it was report-
ed that the two schools had agreed
verbally to at least a two-year ex-
tension of the contract which ex-
pttes in 1650.
