NEW YORK, Dec. Half filled
now, a couple of the football bowls
are going to be tanked right up to
the brim before the week is over II
the same form that held good in
yesterdays juicy late Thanksgiving
Day menu doesn't spoil before Sat-
urday.
The Texas Aggies completed an
undefeated season of 10 games with
a 300 conquest of their old rivals,
the University of Texas Longhorns,
and the mighty Tennessee Volun-
teers Gagged the Kentucky Wildcats,
1910, to extend their undefeated and
unscored-upon string right up to the
final fray of the season.
These developments, as half the
country observed the calendar holl-
day, gave the two winners every
thing they needed to get to the Rose
and Sugar Bowls except the railroad
tickets. Until they get them, f1gura-
lively at least, nobody will know just
which will go where, but the best
brains are booming Tennessee for
Pasadena and the Aggies for New
Orleans come New Year Day.
Tulane-U. S. c. Favored.
The other halves of the casts in
these two spectacles are likely to be
filled to the satisfaction OF the
public tomorrow when Southern
California attempts to hurdle a So
so Washington eleven and Tulane
tackles its most bitter foe, Louisiana
State.
Providing U. S. c. and Tulane tri-
umph, their assignments for next
New Year Day already are laid out
for them. The Trajans will be hosts
in the Rose Bowl and the Green
Wave will receive at the Sugar Bowl
There is no reason to believe that
either will miss their parties.
While attention already has
turned to the gridiron's post-season
activities. there still are some at
tractive morsels of the regular pro-
gram remaining.
The prospective Rose Bowl rivals
have games pending on December 9.
Southern Cal. against U. c. L. A. and
tennessee against Auburn.

Stanford and Dartmouth and N. Y.
U. against Fordham. In Boston the
fans will have Boston College and
Holy Cross in one of the fiercest of
fuedS.
On other sectional fronts the
rambling wreck of Georgia Tech,
tied for the Southeastern Confer
ence title, will scrap with Georgia;
undefeated Duquesne bumps into
Detroit and Southern Methodist and
Texas Christian and Baylor and
Rice collide.
Yesterdays firing cost Rutgers its
first defeat as the Brown Bears
scored twice in the final period for
a 1870 decision.
One conference championship
was settled as Colorado captured a
wild 27-17 fracas from Denver in
the Rocky Mountains Big Seven.

Auburn when the game ended with
the Tigers on the 2-yard line.
Little San Jose State preserved
its place among the Nations unde-
feated and united leaders with a
1910 victory over Drake in one of
the Pacific Coasts several night
games. Undefeated. but often tied
U. c. L. A. finished strong for "a
decision over Washington State in
another.
