DALLAS Up - Everybody was
agreed Friday that the Cotton
Bowl football game between Ar
kansas and Georgia. Tech will be
so close a bounce of the ball may
decide it.
Even the coaches figured it
would be tight one although each
was picking the other to win.
The sports writer's, however,
were not so cautious. Arkansas
was selected by nine of sixteen
asked for a prediction. Among
those taking Arkansas was Walter
Stewart, sports editor of the Men,
phis Commercial Appeal, who saw
both teams play during the sea-
son. 81 think it will be close but
Arkansas will win it." he said.
Stewart joined a flock of Texas
writer's picking Arkansas but there
also were some Texans who
thought Georgia Tech would come
through. Among them was Bill
Rives, sports editor of the Dallas
News, who chose Tech by six
points.
The Arkansas and Georgia Tech
squads both arrived here Thurs

day and held workouts. Both
coaches were delighted with the
weather conditions. Bad weather
has cut out much work fer both
of them at the home bases.
But Arkansas was in tip-top
shape for the game, without a
single injury or sniffle, while
Georgia Tech was able to have
all its men in uniform for the first
time Thursday. Flu and injuries
have handicapped the Tech work
outs but the squad is now free
of illnesses and the injuries have
healed sufficiently to insure all
Yellow Jackets being able to play
in the game Saturday. Coach Bob
by Dodd, however, reminded that
they can't be in top physical con-
dition due to the inactivity.
The coaches also were pleased
to hear the weather bureau is
forecasting that Saturday will be
cloudy and mild with temperatures
in the low 60's-and no rain.
The odds fluctuated from three
to six points on Georgia Tech and
Coach Bowden Wyatt of Arkansas
said he figured that was about
right. But, he said wistfully as he
wound up a 2-hour practice ses-
sion for his squad Thursday, 81

the Southwest Conference"
Dodd disputed the odds on his
team and said he figured Arkansas S
ought to be favored. Gee whiz!"
he exclaime. Arkansas is ninth
in the nation and we're not even
in the top 20. Arkansas is the best
single-wing team I've seen in a
long time"
Wyatt said he had a deathly fear
of the "belly series" that is the
bread and butter play for Tech.
This consists of the quarterback
running along holding the ball in
the fullback's stomach and either
leaving or keeping.

Over-EaSer
Tackler Is
Back In Action

FIT. JACKSON, S. C. R - The
Alabama player who impulsively
rushed on the field from the side
lines and tackled touchdown
bound Rice halfback in the last
Cotton Bowl football game will be
seen in another New Years bowl
game Saturday.
Tommy Lewis rocketed to
unique fame with his 12th-man-on-
field tackle of Dick Moegle when
the latter broke loose on a long
touchdown run.
Now an Army corporal, Lewis
will play for Ft. Jackson's Eagles
against Shaw Air Force base in
the first annual Palmetto Shrine
bowl game at Charleston, sc.
Lewis promises that he won't re-
peat his startling performance of
last Jan. 1.
"You can bet one thing" the
Stocky, crew-cut, blond fullback
said with a smile, from now on
when Pm not in the game, I'll be
the coolest man on the sidelines."
Although it was reported that
Lewis came off the bench to tackle
Moegle as the latter flashed by,
he emphatically denies this.
81 had just come out of the
game and was standing on the
sidelines before l rushed onto the
field" he said.
Recounting the famous episode,
voted the 1854 sports oddity by The
Associated Press, Lewis had
words of praise for Moegle, ALI
American halfback this year.
Hes one of the finest running
backs I've ever seen," he declar-
ed, "and l certainly was glad he
made All-America /"
When Lewis downed Moegle with
his unexpected tackle, the Rice
star had Travelled So yards. The
referee promptly awarded Rice a
touchdown because of the incident
and credited Moegle with a e5-
yard scoring jaunt. Rice won the
game, 1856.
Gas I've said a thousand times
before, I'm sorry the whole thing
happened" Lewis said. He admit
ted to being wary of all the pub
icity he has received.
After the Cotton Bowl game,
Lewis, who is quite a runner him
self, played in the Senior Bowl at
Mobile, Ala.

Duke Favored
OUer Nebraska
In Orange Bo,Ol
BY RIP WATSON
The Associated Press

Navy, Ohio State, Georgia Tech
and Duke held the favorltes roles
today as the teams and fans made
final preparations for tomorrowFs
annual New Years Day carnival
of football bowl games.
Tickets were as scarce as an
optimistic word from the various
coaches, but no one had to worry
too much about seeing any of the
big classics, for all of the big ones
will be available on television.
Navy, making its first bowl ap-
pearance in 30 years before an
expected crowd of $4,000. was the
thinnest sort of favorlte, thanks to
a wave of injuries in the fiIal week
of training. The MiddieS (7-2-0),
ranked fourth in the Associated
Press final poll of the season,
meet Mississipprs sixth ranked
Rebels (9-1-0) in the Sugar Bowl at
New Orleans. It's the only game
involving two of the top 10 teams.
Mississippi won the Southeastern
Conference title, while Navy was
awarded the Lambert Trophy as
the best team in the East.
The Rose Bowl can boast the
No. l team in the nation in Ohio
State 5000, but a Pacific Coast
Conference rule prevented a
dream game' - Ohio State VS..
UCLA, No. 2. Because they ap-
peared in the bowl last year, the
Uclans are ineligible this year, so
Southern California $3.50 will
furnish the opposition.
UCLA whacked Southern Cal $40
during the season. Even so, Coach
Woody Hayes of Ohio State de-
cIines comment on the outcome.
His team will be favored by 1872
points against the Trojans before
a crowd of 1O0, 800.
Duke CPD is a 1312.point
choice over Nebraska (6-4O) in
Miami's Orange Bowl, where IS,
points against the Trojans before
a crowd of 100, 300.
Duke (72-D is 131a-point
choice over Nebraska (6-4- o. II
Miami's Orange Bowl, where 68,
OOO are expected despite the total
of six defeats and one tie on the
two teams records.
Georgia Tech (73-O), virtually
perennial bowl team, is a slight
choice over Arkansas 1920 in
Dallas Cotton Bowl. A capacity
crowd of 75,504 is expected to see
if All America guard Bub Brooks
and his mates can recover the
winning formula that carried Ar
kansas to the Southwest Confer
ence title.
Some $4,000 are expected at the
East-West game in San Francisco.

 ADIGCENTS IN ALASKA

Territorial Police Superintendent A. P Bob" Brandt said this week the motorists misplaced pride in his heavy foot is a contributor to the greatest majority of Alaska's fatal traffic accidents"
 The tendency of Alaska drivers to appraise their own driving skill solely in terms of speed plays no small part in the annual toll, Brandt added
 Brandt said: reinforcement or traffic engineering cannot begin to solve the problem of excessive speed until the driving public is educated to the difference in safe and unsafe speeds He said that any speed can be an unsafe speed under certain circumstances"

Intermezzo in A minor Op: 11S. Ca
2riccio in g minor; Op. 116. Brahms;
Tonalis. Hindemith.
Joseph Wo1man's recital in the
Phillips Gallery yesterday re-
yealed one of those pianiStS
whose manner of playing in
variably sounds remarkably free
and unforced. The quality par
ticularly suited the two Brahms
pieces, whose unbridled sweep
are typical of that side of
Brahms popularity epitomized in
his Hungarian folk dances. The
momentum that Mr.. Wolman
built and drove home in these
pieces made them irresistably
effective.
With much the same motor
excitement. his playingof Hinde-
mith, especially in the second
prelude and fugue. produced a
really dazzling tour de force.
One of the important results
of Mr.. Wolman's physical relax
alton is a tone that. no matter
how soft or how loud, is con-
sistently round and unforced. In
his delicate playing of the Mo-
zart Rondo in A minor, one al
most felt that the piano was
playing itself, so natural and
beautiful were the sounds that
came out.
It was in this tonal realm,
however, that the right" sounds
for Mozart ended, for when the
music called for that elusive and
precarious balance between free
dom and discipline. Mr.. VOL
mans playing lacked sufficiently
varied control of his beautiful
tone, and his sense of rhythmic
nuance went almost berserk.
With Beethoven, another COM
poser whose consummate diSci-
pline produced music whose in
herent expressiveneSs is always
sufficient, Mr.. Wolman also
lacked enough regard. In the
first movement of the Sonata in
D minor Mr.. Wolman's enthu-
siasm anticipated Beethoven's
points of climax, and his senti-
naturalization of individual
phrases and poor pacing COM
pletely missed the composers
subtle form.
