NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Look

football coaches still are in mid

copious tears about the lack of
practice space +. Several schools

more sports-minded students
than there are seats in the gyms,
so they're having season-ticket

constantly as a result of his kick

kicks that go out of bounds and if
the Eagles get lucky we're going to
be in a tight spot"

Bosox With Four Men Dominate Major AIl-Stars
Conference Indicates
Texas Must Compete
Only Cotton Bowl
BY the Associated Press

1 DALLAS, Tex, Oct. 24.-Don't
look for Texas in the Rose Bowl,
Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl or any
bowl except the Cotton Bowl JAN
uary / If it wins the Southwest
Conference championship and fin
ishes the season ndefeated-which
it is favored to do.
Reports persist that Texas will.
liz 1t goes through unbeaten, ask
the conference for permission to
play at Pasadena-a trip the Long
horns missed in 1941 because Of two
of the Southwest's greatest upsets.
These reports were the kind that
caused the conference to reaffirm
its close relations with the Cotton
Bowl, DR.. Gayle Scott of Texas
Christian University, president Of
the conference, said today in indi-
eating the conference would not
grant such permission.
In a statement responding to a
question from the Associated Press,
DR.. Scott declared:

following motion: That the con-
ference commits its champion to
the Cotton Bowl game; if that team
does not accept the Cotton Bowl
game, it shall not be permitted to
play any other championship game
"At the regular meeting of the

there is no change in the relation
of the conference to the Cotton Bowl

Is committed to the support of tho

THE motion of December was

Gently pointed to this rule in answer
to the reports, but left unanswered
the question of whether Texas might
ask the conference to waive the rule
in Difference to Longhorn trip to
the Rose Bowl. The reports had
been that the conference would be
asked to do this in view Of the fact
that this is Bibles last year as
coach.
In 1941 Texas had what 1t thought
was its greatest eleven. It swept
over the opposition, was acclaimed
the No. / team in the country and
Texas expected a Rose Bowl invita-
/ ton. But the team slumped in No

defeated by Texas Christian. 1t did

demonstrate.
Dumb Dan Morgan says Jack
Britton and Ted Kid Lewis
fought each other 20 times and
never shook hands. Probably
by the last time they we're so
old that their hands shook any
way.
Before Oklahoma U. played
Texas in the Cotton Bowl, Tackle
Wade Walker said he always had
wanted to see a real big crowd.
But when the Sooners ran onto
the field, Walker was so intent
on the game he forgot to look
at the 50,507 fans. /. The Dodg-
ers have grabbed the best strike

formance against the Giants the
Eagles will have rough going.
Steve Van Buren's presence in the
lineup is not causing too much con-
Germ among the Redskins. They
stopped him once last, year with a
line that doesn't begin to compare
with this aggregation. The one
man gang will find it tough going
against Ki Aldrich, Al Couppee, Paul
Stem and the rest of them. And
the Skins can be as rough and tough
as Stevie.
But against Zimmerman's kicks
there is no defense. If he's hitting
the ball it'll be big edge for the
Eagles.

Mickey Vernon, Washington's

berries and get sunburned just | like people do further south.
 We can go swimming Tn warm lakes and take hikes through the tall grass on our beautiful green hills and fish in tranquil lakes all summer long. Of course we have winter, too, but lots of times we don't even have a white Christmas, and some peo- pie who don't know any better ljust won't believe it.
 l People write in and want to know if boats can come here to our island in the winter or is it all frozen up and does the snow go over our buildings and silly questions like that. That's why it was such a welcome surprise to get your letter and find out that you think it possible that citrus fruits could grow at Kodiak. And we'll tell you a secret, Beverly. There is some citrus fruits growing in Kodiak! We have some friends, a MT and i Mrs. James Martz, who live in a | house up on hill overlooking the town and it's blue bay with it's tiny islands and sandy beach' es, and in their house Is a lemon tree. Maybe I should say lemon bush, because it is only few inches bigh, but they have raised lit from a seed that came out of a lemon that was shipped to Kod- 1 iAk to eat,
 I But we must confess, Beverly, that there aren't any lemons on it yet although we have feel ing it is doing the best it can. Kodiak, you see, is in line with Honolulu, as we're almost direct | ly north of the Hawaiian islands, 1 but we'll have to admit that we l are probably a little too far north to be in the natural zones where citrus fruits would g ow by them selves outdoors, and produce children citrus fruits.
 But we did want you to know about this lemon tree that is growing at Kodiak, and if some little lemons should make their appearance we promise you that you shall be the very first to
 know about 1t For you. Beverly are the first one to have suspect
 ed that Kodiak was something
 more than an icy, cold, barren
 place, and we love you for it. We hope this answers your question, and we hope everyone
 else who wants to know about us
 and the rest of Alaska, does just as you did and goes af er the
 real facts and doesn't rely on all
 the wild transformation that
 seems to exist.
 Thanks again for your letter which we shall always remember with pleasure.
 Yours until lemons grow at Kodiak,
