Basketball Loop For Sixth Grade
 Boys Is Planned

Plans are being formulated by the Park Department for basketball league in the public and parochial schools for boys of the sixth grades who wish to play basketball and are not big enough or capable enough to make their school teams. It is planned to put the league in opera tion during the second week in January.
 The league will be open to the little fellows who will be members of their schools big teams in a year or two. All schools in the city have been invited to enter team and it is now up to the boys to let their principals know that they want to enter the league.
 Games will be played once a week under the same rules as the public and parochial leagues, and will probably be staged at Chase Park house or at Leavenworth gym. Young men who are employed in factories until in the afternoon are asked to volunteer their services to handle the youngsters although high school freshmen may also coach by applying to the principals of the school in which they are in- tereSted.
 Further information regarding to the proposed Sixth Grade League may be obtained by communicating with Supervisor of Recreation Bill Derwin at the Park Department of flee. Teams will not be required to buy new uniforms.

Mexico, Gridders In Sun Bowl Gm.

Fl Paso, Tex, Dec. 27 - (U.P0 = Promoters of the Sun Bowl football game, who admittedly didn't get the best teams for their post-season Nv Years day football game En- phasized today that their "interna- tional' match between the Univer- Sity of Mexico and Southwestern of Texas will bring together the oldest school on the North American con- tinent against the oldest one in Texas.
 Tradition can't rear its hoary head sicne it will be the first time the teams have played each other, but there are other points to be consid- cred, the sponsors emphasize. Mex ico's team which won the cham pionship of the Republic for the 12th time tins year gained the title and the Sun Bowl invitation by beating Mexico City Polytechnic h. stitute, its ancient rival.
 Southwestern, with a number of Marine trainees, is not as strong as last season, when it defeated New Mexico University ' 10 0 in the Sun Bowl.
 Mexico University was founded in 1853 and Southwestern was estab- lished in 1840.

they will be happy to suspend op- erationS during the crisis.
 Too much stress has been laid upon professional sports as a morale builder for our armed forces, it seems to me. I'm inclined to the belief that our fighting men don't need that kind of morale building. Cooperation on the home front in winning the war by cut ting down-nay cutting out-un- necessary absenteeism from vital war work, the purchase of war bonds by the common people-meaning you and me, instead of big banking con- cerns and corporations-the elim- 1nation of graft and malingering in essential industries, will do more to build up them orale of our war riors afield than any measly horse race, ball game or even profligate gambling in box car figures through pari-mutuel windows.
 Speaking of gambling, some in- serested quarters voiced mild but 9ubtle reprimand of Byrnes' drastic action by pointing out the various states accrued fabulous sums from racing and the sport contributed something like $7,000.000 to various War Funds and aided considerably In the purchase of War Bonds, a fact there's no gainsaying.
 These folks, however, lost sight of the purpose of the Byrnes direc- tive, which is not aimed at the sport as such, but as 1t contributes motivating influence to absentee ism In vital areas where manpower at best is not up to requirements.
 They lose sight of the fact that nl the money and entertainment in the world isn't worth a belt of shells to soldier with nn empty gun or Q general without the weapons of war on a battlefield. These are made by labor. not by going to the lncos

OKLAHOMA AND
 TIC. DRILL HARD 1. FOR COTTON 'GO'
Bv ED FIFE


 Limited Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 Dallas, Tex, Dec. 27-UP)-The durability of the starting teams may be an important factor in the Cot ton Bowl game on New Years day between Texas Christian and Okla home A. & M. since both elevens are short on competent reserves. Their coaches were concentrating today upon long and hard condi- tioning drills.
 At Saltwater, Okla, where the Aggies worked out for the first time after the Christmas holiday in 20- degree weather, the emphasis by Coach Jim Lookabaugh was on cal- isthenics and running drills to help get his "60-ninute" boys back in shape.
 The same was true at Fort Worth, Tex, home of the T. c. U. Horned Frogs who took refuge in a gynna- sium when prolonged rain turned their gridiron into a hog wallow.
 There are seven players on each squad who have played without re- lief in one or more games and neither coach made any secret of the fact that his hopes of victory depended upon how well they stand up in the Bowl game.
 M. D. Fullback
 The workhorse of the T. c. U. eleven was big Novan Cox, the 195- pound freshman fullback from Grandfalls, Tex. Cox, discharged medically from the service, has played five complete games, topping the best effort of Jim Spivatal, 19O- pound freshman fullback from Bunkie, La, of the A. & M. squad, who has been in three full games.
 Tackles Clyde Flowers and Henry Rose, guards Herman Smith and John Cooke, center Jim Cooper and halfback Bob Ruff were the other endurance boys on the Christians Southwest Conference title team.
 For A. & M. the other players who went the route in one or more games were Bob Fenimore, one of the nations outstanding backs, Nei, Armstrong and Glenn Moore, both ends, Ralph Foster a tackle, Jack Colhouer, a guard, and Nate Wat son, a blocking tackle.
 Both coaches reported that all players reported back in good con- d1t1on and there were no injuries. even minor ones.

Spinning The Wheel
By JOHN A. CLUNEY

Ever hear of the EVIL? Means Bowlers' Victory Legion, which has contributed thousands of dollars to- ward the comfort and help for men in the armed services; its women members having bought an Ameri- can field AMBULANCE fully equip- ped for service OVERSEAS. One of the recent contributors, was $1 per man from the Sackin Recreation Bowlers Club of Kansas City. All members as DEAF and MUTE. Incidentally, Mercantile League lads were rounded up last night by Pres ident Andy Juliano for purpose; which provided $50 for former league bowler Winnie Lucarelli, back home after service and injury in the South Pacific. For some reason, bowlers will part with their money for a worthy cause or individual, about as quickly as any group in the sports world.
