Out 10 Whack Jinx
Champions
Would Hang Up Record
With Repeat Victory;
Service Tilt Hot
BY HERB BARKER,

NEW YORK. Nov. 27.-Being the
final whirl at the football guessing
contest:
Thursday.
TeXas-Texas A. and M: The final
hurdle for the unbeaten, united
Aggies. If Kimbrough, Thomason
and Robnett, Inc, get past this one
the Aggies will become the first team
in history to take the Southwest
title twice in succession. It's a
long standing jinx, but this corner
firmly believes the Aggies are going
to make it. Texas A. and M.
Brown Columbia: The Lions are
just about footballs leading oppor-
tunists. You can't make a mistake
against them without it showing on
the scoreboard. Therefore, Colum-
bia.
South Carolina Wake Forest:
Probably close, but taking Wake
Forest.
Tulsa-Arkansas Tough One.
TulSa-ArkansaS: Hard to figure,
but it looks as if the edge belongs to
Tulsa.
Citadel-Davidson: Out of the hat,
Davidson.
Kansas Colorado State: No sur
prise either way. Kansas.
Saturday.
Army Navy: One of Army's
weakest teams, but that's no guar
antee this won't develop into one of
the tightest games of the year. Navy
has the power and the speed, but has
had trouble around the goal line all
year. Well take Navy, but not by
much.
California-Stanford: Last OBJ
Stacle for Stanford's unbeaten, un-
tied Indians, and it may be tough
one. California has played we'll
ever since its opening game rout by
Michigan. Still, one vote for STAN
ford.
Boston College Holy Cross:
Doesn't seem to be much hope for
Holy Cross, even though this is one
of those traditional affairs. Boston
College.
Nebraska-Kansas State: Nebraska
should cinch the Big Six crown
here.
Vanderbilt Tennessee: The Com
modores won't 60 down without
fighting, but there's no possible
choice here except undefeated, un-
tied Tennessee.
Duke Choice Over Pitt.
Duke-Pitt: Pitt Is finishing
strong, but it's doubtful whether the
Panthers can deal with this one.
Duke.
Duquesne- Carnegie: Taking Du-
quesne.
Fordham-New York University:
Ditto Fordham.
Alabama Mississippi State: One
of the best games of the day. and
State will need to be at it's best If it
wants to protect its undefeated re-
cord Mississippi State.
Florida Auburn: Florida seems to
be coming and Auburn going. Flor
ida.
Georgia Tech Georgia: A dog
fight from the word 60. The coin
says Georgia.
Louisiana State Tulane: Tulane
gets call.
Southern Methodist-Texas Chris
tian: Taking the Methodists.
Rice-Baylor: What do you do in
case like this? Out of the hat, Rice.
and-Washington & Lee: Not
much to choose. Maryland
Santa Clara Oklahoma: Close
enough. Santa Clara.
Washington Washington State:
Like Washington
Oregon State-Oregon: And Ore
gon State.
Long-range guessing: December
7, Auburn over Villanova; Notre
Dame over Southern California;
Texas over Florida; South Carolina
over The Citadel; Southern Metho-

Plays Better Football
Thon PubIicized Stors.

A few days ago I received a screed
from a sport-writing friend from
West Virginia who knows his stuff.
"You may remember" he wrote.
"that I've only slipped you one tip.
Years ago I told you that we had
hillbilly by the name of Sammy
Snead who was on his way up with
the greatest swing in golf. That
was before any one knew anything
about Sammy Snead. You printed
what wrote to you. Now I'm tell
Ing you that Jackie Hunt of Marshall
College is a better football player
than Sammy Snead is a golfer.
81 know his schedule isn't what
Minnesota or Michigan faces. But
I know what he can do. I'd like to
see him, on equal terms, play against
Harmon or Kimbrough, for I know
he can do more things better with
a football. He can run with either
and outkick and oUtpass both. And
YOU can't find a better defensive
player.
Hunt is In the same spot Dutch
Clark once held. "A great player
they said, but no schedule Dutch
Clark still is the all-time all-Amer-
lea quarterback in your book and
almost every other book. Hunt is
bigger and faster than Dutch Clark

This is no fake ballyhoo for Jackie

when Doc Spears, coach at Dart

at Toledo, who has seen Hunt play
two years, adds his testimony, you
have to listen.

Spears tribute.

X that he could have gone to almost
any headline college-could have
been an outstanding star-but that
he turned back all the PROSECUTING,
scholarship, good-job offers made
him-all the all-America fame-to
stick with the home town and the
home college, where they couldn't
pay him dime.
Too many have taken the other
road.
Hunt must be great football
player, from his record and from
every testimony offered, and, in
addition. he must be great guy.
The proselyters couldn't even get

CULVER Aid
To Miamians

None of the citizens of Miami,
Florida, have more reason to be
thankful that their home town has
suddenly become a second Holly
wood than the young people with
ambitions to become artists. Three
hundred of them, of high school
and university age, were employed
by Max Fleischer, when he began
production of his new full-length
animated cartoon in Technicolor,
"Gulliver's Travels" now at the
Rialto theater.
AS an added piece of good news
for youthful Miamians of artistic
talents, Fleischer recently an
nounced that most of the jobs will
be permanent, since his studios
plan to make thirty-five 'Popeye,"
Betty Boop," "Stoneage" and
"Hunky and Spunky" cartoons for
Paramount during the coming
season.
Fleischer's tie-up with Miami
talent is reciprocal one moreover,
for he has just made an alliance
with the Miami Art school, to
which he will loan staff artists to
train younger artists for work in
his studios.
"Gulliver's Travels" is based on
the famous Jonathan Swift story.
1t takes the tabled hero through
fantastic exploits in the land Of
tiny people of Lilliput.
