WIN OVER PITT WOULD DECIDE
 EASTERN CLUB
Texas Christian May Come to New York Game;
 Coast in Tangle
] BY LESLIE AVERY.

United Press Stan Correspondent} !: New York, Nov. IS. (UP) -Dimin- ution of the nations major perfect record football teams to give, one of which says, "No thanks, I've had some," has the civic minded "bowl- game" promoters tearing their hair today trying to land suitable at fractions for their post-seasop ex- travanganzaS.
 With four established bowl games, headed by the tournament of roses festival at Pasadena, and with New York impresarios planning a fifth, there aren't enough perfect records to go around now, and there may be less after, Nov. 26. #
 The clean-slate list is headed by Notre Dame, which is not interested in a bowl bid because 1t goes to the coast to play Southern California Dec. 3. This leaves Duke, Tennessee, Texas Christian, and Oklahoma in the major classification, and there is good chance that Oklahoma will meet it's nemesis against tied but undefeated Iowa State this Satur- day, and that Duke. will find Pitts Panthers too tough on the 26th. Tennessee still has a tough nut to crack in Mississippi and Rice might break T.NC. us winning streak this weekend.
 Since New Years day falls on Sunday, some of the bowl classic" will be held over until Monday This will be the case in the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans, said Herbert Ben- son, president of the mid-winter sports association.
 The Rose Bowl situation seems in the worst shape because there is not one perfect record team on the west coast. The western bid will as usual go to the Pacific coast con- ference winner-if there is one-but 1t is probable that the race will end Up in tie between California and Southern California. They each have five victories and one defeat, and each has one more conference game which 1t should win. It was an- nounced, last night that balloting by the conference members for the western representative will be held Monday, Nov. %. If the bid should go to the defending champion, Cali fornia Bears, they will cancel their late December date with Georgia Tech. ia
 From information now available, here Is the possible bowl Nneups:
 Rose Bowl, Pasadena-Californ or Southern California ys. T.. c. U., Tennessee or. Duke
 Sugar Bowl, New Orleans-T c. D., Tennessee or Duke vs, Carnegie Tech or Holy Cross.
 Cotton Bowl, Dallas-Texas Chris tian or Texas Tech vs Oklahoma or Iowa State. ,e Orange Bowl Miami The best Southern Club left after the other bowls are filled vs. Georgetown, vil- lanova or Holy Cross.
 Eastern Bowl, New (Tenta- tive)-T. c. U, Tennessee, Duke, Texas Tech vs.s Carnegie Tech, Bos- ton college, Holy Gross of ViIlailova
 TIexas Christians Horned Frogs appear to be the key team that will decide who goes where and who plays who With ,Notre Dame out of the way, TIC. U., probably can take it's choice of any of the saucers. It is reported that Cotton Bowl ofIicials are pressurmg to keep the Frogs in Dallas, but if the players are allowed to- decide the question 'themselves, they'll probably choose either Pasa- dena or New.

 :. Duke Is the dafkhorse team but ia victory over Pitt undoubtedly would make; 1t the leading candidate for the Rose Bowl bid, and you can bet that Wallace Wade would like noth- ing better than that! 3,o0o mile ju1ket. M Ss3.ssg.
