erican field man to set a world
mark. That, too, once was regard
cd as an impOSsibility.
Another outstanding trend of 1854
was the emergence of RusSiaS as
real power in track and field.
The Russians have been peeking
from behind the Iron Curtain more
often and what the Western coun-
tries have seen has been disturb
ing. The Russians are good. They
won the world weight-lifting cham
pionship, although American didn't
enter all the events. Event for
event, the Americans beat the Rs

Jack Crump, one of Britain's
leading track officials, predicts that
within five years the Russians will
dominate track and field. That's an
unpleasant observation on thd
worlds leader in track and field
since the turn of the century.
All told, 81 new track and field
records were set during the year

BY going its own resolute way
and declining to tie itself up with
any athletic conference, as its
principal rivals have done, the
Sugar Bowl officials took big

The year 1854 will 20 down in
track and field record books as
the most memorable one in his
tory. 1t was the year two humans
achieved what once was thought
impossible.
Roger Bannister, a somber Bri-

studious Australian school teacher.
both ran the mile under four
minutes.
Bannister was the first to break
the big barrier Of track when he
raced the distance in 1884 on
May in Oxford, England. Then
Landy ran the mile in 3::5S flat
in Turku, Finland, on June 21.
That set the stage for their meet
ing on Aug. in the British En-
pire Games in Vancouver. Bannis-
ter won the race in 1883. Landy,
right behind, was caught in 1886.
Landy holds the record, but Ban
mister was the first to show that it
could be done.
At years end Bannister retired
from competition two days after
Landy announced he would teach

Franz Stampfl, Bannister's coach
thinks the record will be $50 in

Americans had little to offer in
the way of worlds records, pos

them.

West Coast. AS we recall, though,
the Coast Conference already had
committed itself to its present
bowl pact with the Big 10 and
could not invite the Cadets.
AS almost everyone must be
aware by this time, there is con-
siderable rivalry between our two
service academies. Neither school
especially likes for the other to re-
ceive more than its fair share of
publicity, and there is no question
that Navy stole a march in that
respect this time.
AS for Notre Dame, there have
been recurring rumors for several
years that the Irish were about
eady to play in a bowl game if
the right invitation came along.
One hears that there has been
some pressure from the alumni.
So far the rumorS have been
strongly denied as fast as they
popped up, but they might not be
the next time. The new coach,
Terry Brennan, being very young
and ambitious, might feel differ
emily about post-season activities
than his predecessor, Frank Leahy,
did.
The Irish have not played in a
bowl since 1925.
One of the reasons Army has
advanced for not accepting bowl
bids recently was that such trip
would deprive members of their
team Of their Christmas vacations.
Navy, by waiting until today to fly
to New Orleans, has demonstrated
that the rigors of travel no longer
are what they used to be. The en-
thusiasm with which the Middies
voted to play in the Sugar Bowl
also proved that they did not re-
gard the expedition as a hardship.

NEW YORK Up - Heavyweights
Dan Bucceroni and Cesar Brion
meet tonight in what could be
billed as a battle for survival at
New York's St. Nicholas Arena
(DuMont-TV, 10 pm, ESTD.
Although neither has been doing
well of late, they still possess for
midable won-lost records. Bucce-
roni, of Philadelphia, has a 46-5
slate with 80 knockouts. BriOn's
record is 43-10 with 20 kayos.
The heavyweight class being
what it is today, it doesn't take
more than two good showings to
get back in the rankings. 1t only
took two wins by Charley Norkus
to get back in the money, and Buc-
ceroni and Brion hope to do the
same.

Bobby Dykes of Miami at Brook

Winner of three straight, the
rangy, blond wildcat is rated one
of the best prospects in the BOOM

Vandy coach, called Bobby the best
freshmen he'd ever had. AS a Soph-
Omore, he's even better.
Although he led the Commodores
in field goal accuracy last year
and was second only to all-SEC
Dan Finch in Vandy scoring and
rebounds, he was even more spar
king as a defensive star.
Thym's 30 point production
against Texas last week brought
his four-game total to 70 for an
average of 1913.
Denver Brackeen, whose MiSsiS-
sippi team was idle last week, took
sole possession of first place in the
averages when Tennessee's Ed
Weiner was held to 13 points
against South Carolina.
Brackeen, senior, has averaged
$50 points in Ole Miss five games.
Wiener dropped from a tie with
Brackeen to third place with a
1913 average. Jack Kirkpatrick Of
Auburn, also idle, moved up to
second with his 24.3 mark.
Alabama'S Jerry Harper hit for
% points against Nebraska to pull
his average above the 20 per game

Browns Title
Victory Was
Astounding"
BY JERRY LIsKA


Browns today owned a rare second
National Football League title aft
er an astounding 56-1O dethroning
of the Detroit Lions which proved:
1. Cleveland's retiring quarter
back, Otto Graham. showed enough
voltage at 80 - three touchdown
passes and three scoring smashes
to warrant doubt he will quit pro
ball as he says.
2. That you can't believe what
you see on the TV screen (the
game-turning play favored the
Browns after what appeared a neu-
tralizing double-infraction on TV).
3. That the same two teams ptay-
ing in the same city on successive
Sundays won't kill your crowd.
4. That statistics are little white
lies (the Browns had only a slight
edge ovr the two-time league
champion Lions).
There was much of the fantastic
about Paul Browns tremendous
crushing of Detroit jinx in yester-
days game, played under perfect
(for Dec. 26) weather conditions.
1t ended Lion quest for an un-
precedented third straight NFL
title.
The Browns won their first tri-
umphs in nine starts against a
Buddy Parker-coached Lion team,
but the runaway didn't develop un-
til after a first quarter tide-chang-
er which puzzled TV viewers.
This came, with Detroit ahead
80 on Doak Walkers field goal.
Cleveland's punter was roughed
on the same play in which De-
troit's receiver apparently signaled
for a fair catch then was clob-
bered deep in Lion territory.
The Brown punter, Horace Gill
lom, was racked up by Lion guard
Harley Sewell, just after lofting
fourth-down punt to Detroit's jug
Girard. After signaling a fair
catch, Girard moved three strides
to his right and did not have con-
troll of the ball when he was
smacked down.
What the TV audience never
learned was that officials ruled
Girard, "muffing the ball." never
had enough control to warrant in
fraction of the fair-catch ruling.
That left the roughing-the-punter
violation standing alone. instead of
being wiped out in double
penalty.
So Cleveland got a first down on
Detroit's IS and two plays later,
Graham hurled 37-yard touch
down pass to speedy Ray Renfro.
That was the games turning point.
The Browns took a 7-3 lead and
steadily enlarged it.
Detroit's Bobby Layne for the
first time in the Lion-Brown rival
ry compared poorly with Graham.
Layne had six passes intercepted,
and every break went against him.
Statistically, the Browns out
rushed Detroit by a scant 140 to
1856 yards, and in passing the Lions
were ahead, 1875 to 1863. But what
the figures didn't tell was how
Graham outwitted and outmaneu-
vered the Lions.
Passing twice to Renfro and once
to end Pete Brewster for touch
downs, and in smashing over from
the 5-yard line and and 1-foot
lines, Graham set three playoff
marks.
Graham's three touchdowns set
title-game scoring marks with 1S
points, most Six-pointers and most
touchdowns by running.
After the six touchdowns Graham
either passed or carried, the
Browns produced a 12-yard touch
down run by Curly Morri on and a
10-yard scoring scamper by Chet
Hanulak.
Lou (The Toe) Groza Of Cleve-
land made eight conversions.
