NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2.-Rulers
of college football after its bold
Sugar Bowl triumph over Tulane,
mighty Texas A. and M. today pom
dered the thought of playing South
ern California, Rose Bowl kings, in
post-season game for the Finnish
relief fund.
Over a banquet table celebration
of the 14-13 defeat of Tulane's Green
Wave, Coach Homer Norton, a mild
man threatened only season ago
with dismissal in the middle of a
disappointing year, shook off the
back slaps. admitted he had heard
talk: of post-season game with the
Rose Bowl winners and commented:
What do we think of it? Well,
we love to play football"
Willing to Consider 1t.
Officials of A. and NJ, members of
the Athletic Council and others were
sounded out, and all concurred in
the belief that such a game was a
rather remote possibility, but indi-
Gated that it would be considered.
Reports in this football l-mad city
were that the game would be played
in Los Angeles about January l5,"
with an expected million dollar gate
to go to Finland for relief purposes.
To Norton, however, the most i'm
portant thing was a meeting with
the Athletic Council of Texas A and
M, scheduled in few days. Then
the man who was destined for the
junk heap only a few months back
is expected to demand a five-year
contract with certain changes in the
athletic setup.

he thundered up and down field in
90 minutes of the greatest one-man
show ever staged in this part of the
country. On 26 carries he crashed
through for 152 yards, or a 5.7-yard
average.
Deep in the fourth period, after
Tulane had hurried across two rapid
touchdowns that put the Aggies be-
hind, 1877, Kimbrough got his tiring

McFadden stood out, however, as
the handspring of the team, his
great punting, generalship, running
and defense telling the experts the

not overrated in the least.
Chunkin' Charley O'Rourke gave
Clemson heart failure more than

and it was his slithering return of

way for field goal. Alex Lukachik,

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. "A 28-
toll West victory over the East
went into the books today, and the
boys who played in the fifteenth an
nual Shrine charity football contest
were still digging the mud out of
their ears.
A downpour, starting midway in
the second period, turned the Kezar
Stadium gridiron into sea of mud,
and by the final quarter the New
Year Day crowd of $4,000 couldn't
tell one player from another. Every
body on the field was coated with
mud from head to foot.
But despite the adverse condi-
tlons, the ninth Western victory in
the f1fteen-year history of the
classic was an amazing display of
brilliant kicking and passing.
Each Gets Early Score.
The teams, hand picked from all
sections of the country, each scored
in the opening period. The West
tailed when Bill Anahu. Santa
Clara end, grabbed a 50-yard pass
from Halfback Kay Eakin of Ar
kansas and ran Is yards to the goal
line. Then the East evened the
count with touchdown by George
Stirnweiss, North Carolina halfback,
who took a short pass from Ed
Boell, New York University quarter
back, and eluded five Westerners en-
route to scoring ground. Each team
converted.
In the second period the West
Tailed twice. Herb Mccarthy, Dem
yer fullback, tossed a short one to
Ollie Cordill, Rice Institute half
back, who skirted end for the second
West score. Soon after, Leroy Zim-
norman, smooth-passing halfback
from San Jose (CalifO State, passed
three times for 36 yards to the East
1-yard line, from where Frank En-
mons, Oregon fullback, plunged over.
East Benefits by Safeties.
The East picked up points on
safety in the third period. Eakin's
punt from behind his own goal was
blocked and grounded in the end
zone. The Fasteners got two more
in the next period. The West was
backed to its 1-yard line after
15-yard clipping penalty, and Zim-
norman grounded the ball in the
end zone rather than risk a weak
kick.
The West scored its fourth touch
down in the final period when Lee
Artoe, California tackle, grabbed a
bad Eastern pass from center which
sailed over the head of Dick Cas-
siano, Pittsburgh half, and plopped
into the end zone.
Rain kept away some $1,000 fans
would would have seen one of the
most exciting and amusing East
West contests in years. The 60,0OO-
seat stadium was virtually sellout.
