Coaches Won't Guess
About Cotton Bowl
Scoring Prospects
By Harold v. Roi
Associated Press Sports Writer


DALLAS, Dec. 30.-Two of the
most versatile offenses in football
clash here Saturday in the 18th
annual Cotton Bowl game and
Southern Methodist is the general
choice to outscore Oregon.
But you can't get the two coaches
to even hazard a guess as to how
many touchdowns will be made, if
any.
Along betting row, the boys with
the cash were giving 61a points and
taking Southern Methodist. They
didn't say, however, if they thought
the score would be 42-41 or 80.
Coach Matty Bell of Southern
Methodist said; II haven't the least
idea. You can't tell about a foot
ball game. Why, in 1896, when I
took my team to the Rose Bowl to
meet Stanford, both were top offen-
sive teams. Everybody predicted
there would be a flood of touch

quarterback and passer, was listen

Teacher Pupil Status

ANY Rose Bowl 'Feud'
BY the Associoted Press

PASADENA, Calf, Dec 30.-Here
it is only two days away from the
Northwestern-C California Rose Bowl

The teacher-pupil status of CAL

Northwestern's young Bob Voigts,

Northwestern when Voigts was a

The keen rivalry is there, of course,
and there won't be any sparing the
horses if either's team cuts loose on
a scoring spree.
But there isn't the intense feeling,

He was introduced as the coach
of the Illini and from far back in
the hall came a scattering of boos
They came from one group and they

Sugar Bowl Final
BY the Associoted Press

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. 30.-The
basket ball game every one has
longed for-Kentucky VS.. st. Louis
will be played here tonight in
the finals of the four team Sugar
Bowl tournament.
The Wildcats of Kentucky and
Billikens of st. Louis, outstanding
college teams of last season and
undefeated in the present campaign,
won their way to the title game
with victories in last nights open
ing round.
The Billikens, National invita-
tional champions, beat Holy Cross,
61-52, in the first game last night.
Then Kentucky's NCAA kings,
shooting with amazing accuracy,
swamped Tulane, 78-47.
Kentucky and st. Louis have
never met in basket ball before. Last
spring, when each boasted a ma
tional title, there was great hope
they might clash in the Olympic
trials. But st. Louis didn't enter,
and Kentucky lost to the AAU
Champion Phillips Oilers in the
finals.
The dream match is set for $50
pm. (CST) in New Orleans Munic-
ipal Auditorium. Holy Cross and
Tulane will play consolation
game at 7:30.
Both last nights victors had far
less trouble than generally had, been

The first affair was all St. Louis

Cross, pride of the East, made a
contest of it for that time, and the
lead traded owners four times. But
St. Louis pulled steadily away and
led, 5O-36, with six minutes to go.
The Billikens ran in subs then and
let their regulars rest up for tonight.
Kentucky, which beat Tulane,
51-47, in Louisville last week,
