Sugar Bowl Bid by Win
Over Mississippi State
BY the Associated Press

STARKVILLE. Miss. Nov. g.
A blue-chip win for Kentucky over
Mississippi State here Saturday
could result in:
l.. The Kentucky Wildcats prac-
tically cinching their first South
eastern Conference championship
since the league was formed in
1888.
2. And tremendously enhancing
their chances for a Sugar Bowl
bid.
Down in New Orleans where the
Sugar Bowl classic is played, this
is how they've been talking about
the possibilities of Kentucky and
SMU meeting there January /.
Bill Keefe writes in the Times
Picayune:
almost everybody seems to
consider it closed deal that
Kentucky and SMU will meet in
the Sugar Bowl. The closer the
picking time approaches. the more
they look as rivals January /.
Harry Martinez of the New Or
leans States adds:
fhe Sugar Bowlers could come
up with a great game for New
Years Day between Kentucky and
Southern Methodist. 1t will be
some time before the Bowl Com
mittee makes a selection, but right
now this looks like as good a
guess as any"
Kentucky's Paul Bryant, a mas
ter mentor when it comes to saying
the proper words before a crucial
battle. sums up the Mississippi
State game like this:
Based on their record and our
scouting report the Maroons could
easily be one Of the toughest clubs
we have faced or will face all
season."
Maroon Mentor Slick Morton,
not to be outdone by cautiously
speaking Bryant, says:
Our team is in fine physical
condition and the boys are looking
forward to playing a good game
against Kentucky though the odds
are against u.s."
Mississippi State and Kentucky
are ranked No. and respectively
in the Nation in total defense.

Harwood will be forced to start
only one officer, Tackle Tex Law

a better position since only three
of its squad are officers.
"It means that I have to re-

been functioning as unit all
year and replace the officers with
enlisted men," Harwood said.
For Lejeune I will be using a line
which has not had the benefit of

Quantico has several enlisted
men who have been dependable
performers all year, although the
mainstays of the team have been
officers. Bernie Kaasman at right

starters all season, while Halfback
Ed Romankowski has scored twice

Overtime Victory

DETROIT, April 21.-The cour-

found themselves within one game
of pulling one of the years major
sports upsets-S Stanley Cup vic
tory over the Detroit Red Wings.
The orphaned New Workers took
the Wings, 2-1, in overtime last
night to move out in front, three
games to two. in the best of seven
series.
The Rangers will have a chance
to grab the championship tomor-
row night in the sixth game, and
if they fail then will have an
other try Sunday night. The
games will be played here since
a circus is occupying the Rangers
home rink.
Raleigh Hits Telling Goal.
Slender Don Raleigh, a 1885,
pound center. shared hero honors
with Ranger Goalie Chuck Rayner
last night as the New Workers
stunned the Wings and some 49,
610 faithful fans.
The script was much like Tues
day nights game, with Raleigh
again banging in the deciding goal
in an action-packed overtime
period.
On Tuesday it took him until
8:34 of a sudden Geath overtime
period to sink the goal that gave
the Rangers a 4-3 decision.
He did it much faster last night,
blasting Detroit's hopes with a
beautiful 10-footer after just 1888
of overtime play.
1t was a sweet victory for the
Rangers. who finished fourth In
the National Hockey League sea-
son, trailing f1rst-place Detroit
by nearly 10 games.
Crowd Smallest of Series.
The Rangers grabbed a 10 lead
at 7:44 Of the second period on
a 25-foot backhand shot by Dune
Fisher and came within two min
utes of scoring a shutout.
Ted Lindsay. leading scorer in
the MIL this season, spoiled that
as he poked in a 4-footer at 1910
OF the final period to send the
game into overtime.
The crowd-smallest turnout of
the playof series-gave the Wings
an ovation after the goal. But
it was the last chance of the
night to cheer as Raleigh took
charge of things in the overtime
period.
The Rangers were a happy
bunch after the hair-raising fin
ish and they expressed confidence
they would wind up the series TO-
morrow.
