FAv0RITES
 ARE NAMED
 FOR BOWLS
iardage, Attacking Pow CTS Are Taken Info Con-
 sideration in Betting
By WILL GRIMSLEY

NEW OIA, Dec. zl.--lfl-- u obvious the wizards of odds didn t let a Little thing like a statistic stand in their way when they laid down the favorites for next Sat- urday's bowl games
 The National Collegiate Athletic Bureau, which speeializes in such hings, has ground out another batch of figures sizing up prin- cipals in some of the main Jan. football attractions.
 These statistics show, among ether things. that five of the eight teams which have been rated un- derdogs in the bigger bowls act ually have better offensive rec ords than their favored adversar- ies.
 This is true in the cases of California in the Rose Bowl, Okla homa in the Sugar Oregon in the Cotton, Oklahoma A and M in the Delta and Wake Forest in the Dixie.
 Attacking Records The exceptions-that is, chosen elevens with superior attacking Irecords-are Georgia in the Orange, Missouri in the Gator and Nevada in the Harbor Bowl
 The NCAB listed records of teams in two other bowls the Salad and Sun-on which no odds have been announced.
 In these, Arizona and Texas Mines have done more with the football than their rivals Of the Drake and West Virginia, in that order.
 The boys who have made North western 61a point choice over un- blemished California in Pasadena s Rose Bowl didn't take too much stock in the fact that the Bears moved the ball farther both by land and air the past season than did Northwestern-and also scored more points.
 California'5 average yardage per game was 372.6 yards compared with 287 for the Wildcats. The Bears scored PIT points to I'll for Northwestern.
 A similar situation exists in the Sugar Bowl where Oklahoma takes one of the best offensive marks in the country only to find itself a ll2 roint underdog against North Carolina.
 The Sooners averaged 3801 yards a game, 296.4 by rushing while North Carolina's average was 3c3.9. Oklahoma registered 336 points fcr the year, their Dixie rivals 255.
 Methodists vs. Oregon Southern Methodist is a 6A point favorite ever Oregon at Dal- las although the Webfoots ran and passed the ball an average of 337.9 ards a game compared with the Mustangs 318.9 SMU scored the most points, howeyer-229 to 194. Oklahoma A and M had a bet | ter seasons mark than William and Mary in ground, gaining and scoring, but the Indians are fav- cred in their clash at Memphis oy six points. &# Tn the Dixie Bowl at Birming- ham, Baylor is rated six points better than Wake Forest team that has averaged nearly 100 yards more a game and scored 2l5 points l to 147. Georgia, a 7-point choice oye, Texas at Miami, leads the Long.

 The United Nations, after months of East West debate, voted today to turn the Atomic Energy dispute over to the hig five powers and Canada for another try for agree ment on basic principles.
 Since Russia is one of the Big Five and has steadfastly opposed control ideas of the United States the only nation known to have the bomb-there was little hope for an accord there The vote, taken in the political committee, was 4l to |, with Russia apd her satellites Cppos ng.
 A Soviet plan to outlaw the atomic tomb and set ur at the same time an atomic energy control agency, was defeated 39-6. Basically, the Russians refuse to allow any inter- national agency to check in the Soviet Union, now or later, on whether Russia is producing atomic weapons.
