 CORNELL DUMPS PENN
 Once-beaten Cornell rallied for 22 points in the second half to dump Penn before 75,0OO at Frank In Field in the high spot of yes terday's schedule. Losers only to Dartmouth in nine games, Cornell pulled it out on a 25-yard scoring pass from Pete Dorset to Walt Bruska. A l0-yard field goal by Bill Kirk was the clincher.
 Maryland poured it on West Vir- ginia, 47-7, to demonstrate their bowl potential. They had lost only to Michigan State,
 Texas, hot and cold by turns, smothered Texas Aggies, 42-14, with sophomore Byron Townsend SCOT ing three touchdowns.
 OTHER WINS
 Wyoming clinched the Skyline Six title by downing Denver, 25-6, and Detroit won the Missouri Val ley conference crown by hum -ling Wichita, 33-7.

BOWL BIDS
 TO RESULT,
 GAMES
CBy the Associated Press)

'&eJ N@A~ -N'nC~aAASO | CDcy
 The college football season reaches climax tomorrow with bowl b.ds and the violent Army Navy struggle sharing top billing.
 Some of the excitement died down yesterday after Cornell nip red Pennsylvania, 29-2l, for a sec- ond straight Ivy League title. Mary land, College of the Pacific and Texas boosted their chances of post season invitations with convincing holiday victories.
 Tonight's schedule calls for an important Kentucky Miami game which mi ght determine Santa Claras opponent in Miami's Orange Bowl Jan, 2.
 But Saturday is the big one for the bowl-minded.
 Oklahoma probably is the prize bowl catch-the only member of the Big Four" atop the football rankings which still can be had
 Notre Dame, which seeks to stretch it's mteaten string to 37 games against Southern California tomorrow, is not interested in bowl games. The Irish still must play Southern Methodist Dec. 3.
 Army, of course, will not listen to bowl bids after it's traditional finale with Navy. The unbeaten and united Cadets, No. in the nation, wind it up before 102,000 fans at Philadelphia tomorrow. DATE FOR OKLAHOMA
 The Sooners of Oklahoma are eeavy favorites to thump their neighborhood rivals, Oklahoma Aggies, and march on to bowl date. New Orleans and the Sugar Bowl is their likely destination with the Cotton Bowl possibility.
 Rice and Baylor will fight it out for the right to be Southwest Con- ference champions and Cotton Bowl host Rice is No ' and Baylor No 6 in the AP poll
 Tulane, eager for New Years assignment in the Sugar Bowl, may make the grade if it gets past Louisiana State in a rugged con- test that should be one of the days best.
 Virginia, dumped from the per- feet record ranks by Tulane last week, can make itself most attrac- tive to Lowl promoters by defeating North Carolina.
 ANCIENT STRUGGLES
 Georgia and Georgia Tech, both suffering sub par seasons, renew their ancient struggle. So do Mis- sissippi and Mississippi State, Ten nessee and Vanderbilt, Southern Methodist and Texas Christian and North Carolina State and Will liam and Mary.
 Other top games on the final big Saturday of the season are Wake
