PASADENA, Calif. U--A high-
scoring football game seems in-
evitable when Arlington State of
Texas and Compton College of
California meet tomorrow in the
1Ithannual Junior Rose Bowl
game
The Compton Tartars during
the regular season piled up 393 1
points for an average of 39 3 a
game as they licked 10 opponens
without a defeat or tie
Arlington’s Rebels scored 276
points for an average of 27 6 in
10 games but they suffered one
loss and had one tic The loss to
Tarleton, 30-7, in Arlington’s last
game, came at a time when sev-
in Arlington first stringers had
been in bed with the flu two days
before the game.
Compton and Arlington had
one common opponent. Cameron
of Oklahoma The Tartars had
their closest shave in this one,
। edging Cameron 15-12 Ar lington
j State, on the other hand, whipped
: Cameron 27-13.
Football coach and athletic
directors, meeting yesterday, rec-
commended to the NCAA con-
votes after that will be hard to
corral.
Ironically, the school that in-
sisted at the last meeting that
the round robin in football be
preserved, meaning further ex-
pansion might wreck it, is pre-
senting Houston for membership.
That is Baylor.
The conference already has
eight members.
