Scribe Picks Eastern
Teams i'm Bowl Games
By HENRY SUPER

NEW YORK, Dec. q. (UP)
The east will make a clean
sweep of the New Years
Bowl games.
I'm playing a hunch and picking
them as follows:
, Rose Bowl-Nebraska over Stan
ford
Sugar Bowl-Boston College over
/ Tennessee.
Cotton Bowl-Fordham over Texas
Aggies.
Orange Bowl - Georgetown over
Mississippi State.
/ Sun Bowl-Western Reserve over
Arizona State at Tempe.
Shriners' All-Star game - East
over West.
Pineapple Bowl-Fresno State over
Hawaii at Honolulu.
All the choices but the Eastern
ALL Stars are underdogs in the early
betting but I'm still going TO ride
with the east because
Rose Bowl. Nebraska has plenty
OF power and is rich in reserve
strength. It lost only one game-to
mighty MinneSota-and that was
one of the Golden Golphers' tough
est battles of the season. Stanford
won all its games on the Pacific
coast It's fancy-dan football was
good enough to fool the western
boys--but Nebraska knows all about
that T-formation and has the power
to break it up.
Sugar Bowl Boston College is one
of the country's great teams. 1t has
a rugged line, speedy backs and
dazzling plays. Tennessee also is
a great team. unbeaten and united
like its opponent. Tennessee plays
hard football-making its own breaks
and then striking like lightning.
But B. c. is the kind OF team that
can stand up under hard tackling
and blocking and in addition, has
the offenSe 10 score without first
getting any breaks
Cotton Bowl: Year in and year
out, Fordham plays one of the
toughest schedules in the country.
1t lost only one game this year
to st. Marys. The Aggies also lost
the same kind of a game, to Texas
Fordham will have to win on pass
ing, where it has a shade of an edge
over the Aggies. The Fordham line
is big enough TO stop John Kim
brough and l think neither team will
gain much on the ground because
both forward lines are big and
tough. Steve Filipowicz, the Rams
passing back, will provide the WIN
ming margin.
Orange Bowl: Georgetown was a
great team this year. 1t lost only
to another great team-Boston Col
lege. The Hoyas have IS seniors
who lost only one game in three
seasons. The line is big and fast
enough to hold back the opposition
while the backfield is performing
magic with the ball. Mississippi
State is speed outfit-and George
town loves to face that kind of
team. State plays the same kind of
football as Tennessee-make the
breaks and score. Georgetown is too
tough to do any fumbling when
tackled or blocked hard~
Sun Bowl: western Reserve has
lost only six games since 1885. 1t
has a strong line and fast back
field. Arizona State has one of the
fastest backfields in America. BY
all figuring. State should win but
in the past two years State played
only four games in daylight, and
failed to win any of them. Two
were defeats and two were ties. The
Sun Bowl game will be played in
the daytime, SO we're picking Re-
serve on that hunch.
East-West: Individual brilliance
will pay dividends in this game.
Coaches Andy Kerr and Bernie Bier
man of the eastern squad have
such players as Tommy Harmon,
Francis Reagan, Forrest Evashevski
and Dave Allerdice TO operate in
Z.

ton of the graphing program at

The amateur bout will be sand
WICKED in between two profession
al set-tos, with Bibber Mccoy, the
250-pound former baseball catcher,
meeting Tiny Morgan. 350-pound
Texan, in the main bout.
Morgan's presence on tonight's
program is in answer to the de-
mand of fans that someone heavy
enough be thrown in the ring with
Mccoy. The Texan has an impress
sive mat record. In the past two
years he has completed As starts
without a single loss.
Dawkins said that the only pre-
parations he needed for this match
are extra reinforcements for the
ring to meet the surge of the pom
drous grapplers.
The nights finale will be be-
tween Johnny Mars, former
champ, and Ellis Bashara, the ALL

pro bout will be a Commute time
