IN Atlantic coastal fishing only from
the commercial angle. When the
demands Of the recreational fisher
man came up for consideration at
the New York meeting the chairman
advised the formation Of advisory
committees from each State, to be
composed equally of sportsmen and

Now Just any angler will not do

first-hand knowledge of fishes and
fishing in his State. In selecting the

worried no end, but believes the
Bruins will give a good account of
themselves.
In talking to players Of both
squads one gets the definite impress
sion there is healthy mutual re-
spect but a supreme confidence by
each in the ultimate result.
Brag Of Running Attack.
No amount of argument could
convince the Bruins, for instance,
that they don't have a better run
ming attack than Georgia, Flatfoot
frankie SinkWich and Charlie
Trippi to the contrary notWith-
standing. Some of them want to
know who beat them on dry field
after October 3, when the Navy Pre-
Flights of St. Mary's turned the
trick. Well, nobody.
You have to listen to their argu-
ment, too, about team with stout
running attack stopping the Geor-
gians. They come up with this:
Auburn, II; Georgia, 49, Auburn
SdAlCo OOO dlN oii WAC 6lOtiAo,
didn't complete a single pass and
held Georgia to 81 yards rushing
and 100 passing.
In rebuttal, Georgia has this to
offer: Five passes were dropped,
three in the end zone, that would
have pulled the game out Of the fire.
One member of the Georgia contin-
gent thinks Auburn, on its game
that day, would have beaten any
body. Potentially, Auburn had a
great team.
Georgia Points to Record.
Strictly in its own behalf Georgia
cites the record 1851 yards gained
rushing, 1921 passing; average gain,
1925 per game. In S OF the II
games played the Bulldogs gained
more than 500 yards; in l the net
was more than 600.
Furthermore, the Georgians, from
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1942-12-29

Coach Wally Butts down to the
last sub who won't get into the New
Years game, will have to be shown
that their passing game can be
bottled up. Butt says he anticipates
a close game. Some of the play
ers think it will be close; others
figure U. c. L. A. cannot possibly
cover all the Georgia pass receivers
and that sooner or later Lamar
CRace Horse Davis. Van Davis,
George Poschner or any one OF sew
eral others are going to get behind
the Bruin safety men for touch
down.
These expressions of opinion were
culled from the rival camps only
yesterday, so they represent the
current outlook.
Sinkwich Sure to Play.
Outside the camps, however, the
impression generally prevails that
Georgia has too many scoring guns
for Bruin team that may get two
touchdoWns for itself, but reveal an
old pass defense weakness. The
betting odds were to l on Georgia
once again, mainly because the
medicos looked at Sinkwich's in
jured ankle after yesterdays prac-
tice and said definitely he would
play
jeff Cravath, University of South
ern California coach, also looked
at SinkWich and the Georgia team
as they went through light scrim-
mage. Said jeff: "Whew! They
look plenty good to me. They're
fast and big. I hope somebody has
warned Babe Horrell"
Said Sinkwich: Il feel pretty
good. I missed one game as a soph-
omore because Of a sprain. I'm 60
ing to play against U. C. L. A. It's
my last game for Georgia, and may
be you think I don't want it to be
a good one"

the current campaign Hershey has
only two triumphs over Washington.
but, then, the clubs have met only
twice.
The Lions can't work up any
heated rivalry with the Bears,
though, because Hershey has been
nice to Washington. The Bears
loaned the Lions talented goalie
in Frank Ceryarce until chubby
Paul Gauthier's injured leg mended
and now playing with Washington

Hershey, in complete command of

NEW YORK, Dec. IS (NANA> -
Prof. James J. Carroll, the noted
st. Louis mathematician and mold
er Of the winter line on Kentucky
Derbys, has just forwarded his odds
on the four major bowl football
games next week
The bowl games will be the last
stand of the football form player,
If he has any money left after the
terrible disasters Of the last season.
I understand that many students of
form are planning to back the four
long shots in the four bowl games,
on the theory that things like Holy
Cross-Boston College, Auburn
Georgia and Redskins Bears, of
recent and melancholy memory, are
the rule these days rather than the
exception.
If such is the case, the teams to
bet for New Year Day are U. c. L. A,
Tulsa, Texas and Boston College.
the four underdogs in Prof, Car
rolls line.
The professor offers the follow
ing odds:
Rose Bowl-Against Georgia, l to
4; against U. c. L. A., 5 to g.
Sugar Bowl-Against Tennessee,
to 20; against Tulsa, 8 to 5.
Cotton Bowl-Against Georgia
Tech, to 7; against Texas, to 5.
Orange Bowl-Against Alabama,
S to 6; against Boston College, even
money.
He's Partial to Dixie.
You will note that Prof. Carroll
Is very partial to Southern teams,
no matter where they play Geor-
gia, Tennessee and Georgia Tech
are decided favorites with him, and
even in the Orange Bowl game,
more or less even thing, he gives
Alabama slight edge.
AS a matter of fact, I would not
recommend humping your head
against the professors logic. It's
true that football form" took pun
ishment this autumn, and that long
shots danced gayly on the PROSTATE
carcasses of favorites time and
again. When the carnage was done
and the smoke cleared away. how
ever, it could be estimated that fav-
orites won roughly two thirds of the

time in major college games-a
sharp drop from the traditional fig
CURE of IS per cent, but still a good
working margin in favor Of form.
And form is apt to prevail more
rigidly in bowl games than during
the regular season The favored
team has time to prepare itself psy-

1t will be up" in morale, and 1t will
not be taken by surprise. There are
cases on record where a team visit
ing the gorgeous purlieus of Miami,
the concentrated cheesecake of Hol-
lywOod or the luxurious soda foun-
tains of New Orleans from afar has
relaxed before the game, with I'M
happy results. However, no coach
with an adequate watchdog on his
staff will let this happen, and the
winter of 1923 is an especially un-
likely time for it-Florida, for in
stance, as Mr.. Branch Hickey was
saying the other day, being virtually
an armed camp at present. and not
the playground of old.
Run Mostly True to Form.
The better team usually wins In a
bowl game. The only recent bowl
game l can recall which went
against the betting odds was the
Boston College Tennessee bout in
the Sugar Bowl a couple of years
ago, won by Boston College-and
there I will make so bold as to say
1 think Tennessee was a false fav-
orite. The game figured about even.
It's possible that Alabama is also
false favorite over Boston College,
in the coming Orange Bowl game
Prof. Carroll certainly does not stick
his neck out in doping this one, but
he does give Alabama a little the
better of it. This, too, appears a
strictly even thing-the only one on
the New Year Day program.
Georgia, Georgia Tech and Ten
nessee seem to be logical favorites on
form, and form, as we were saying,
generally holds true in the bowls.
Your correspondent fearlessly Sc
lects the three teams mentioned
above, along with Boston College
That's the nice thing about bowl
games; if 1t weren't for them, a man
might have to wait till springtime
before he got out on a, limb.
