Sugar Ray Needs
Sugar. May 'yox

NEW YORK R - Dancing man
Ray Robinson, pressed for money
to finance a big show, may return
to the ring from which he retired
in 1852.
Sugar Ray, who once held the
world welterweight and middle
weight championships, has started
training at Greenwood Lake, NJ,
starting next Monday.
Nothing is definite, his manager,
George Gainford, said today.
"Only a lot of work in the camp
will show if Sugar has it," he said.
"If he doesn't, the whole idea is
off. If we are convinced he can
still fight, he will return to the
ring"
Robinson has been In show busi-
ness since he retired and Gainford
said the pair want to make a tour
of the world with their own show.
"But," he said, 1--WE figure it will
cost a quarter of a million dollars
to arrange that - hiring singers,
dancers and an orchestra. We don't
have that kind of money and we
don't want to go into debt for it.
"There is only one way to get
the cash and that is for Sugar
to fight again. The same guys he
licked when he was active in the
ring are still fighting. He can whip
them again.

NEW YORK R-Whatever hap
pened to the football coach who
was moaning only a year ago that
the college game had gone to the
dogs with abolishment of the two
platoon system? Does he still feel
that way after having "given the
game back to the boys" through
one full campaign and part of a
second?
The answer is that he's still
throbbing like an inflamed tooth,
but has become more or less re-
signed to playing with a single
unit. He knows now that it's here
to stay. Here's what one of them
said privately few days back:
We're not playing anywhere
near as good football, but at least
we're equally bad and / doubt that
the spectators notice any big diff
ference. You are seeing more so
called upsets and high, crazy
scores than you did when we could

Southern Cal Risks Unbeaten
Mark With Texas Christian
BY HUGH FULLERTON JR.
BY The Associated Press

Southern California, which may
be one of the nations best college
football teams, risks its unbeaten
record against a youthful and I'M
predictable Texas Christian team
tonight (Friday), but whatever the
talented Trojans do is likely to be
forgotten once the rush of Satur-
days big games gets underway.
SO far this season, Southern
California has crushed Washington
State and Pittsburgh and barely
Squeaked past Northwestern a
three-game record that hasn't i'm
pressed the experts enough TO earn
the TrojanS top rating. The TCU
youngsters were fast and fiery
enough to throw a scare into Okla
homa, now the No. l team in the
weekly Associated Press poll, but
they followed that by dropping a
close decision to Arkansas.
This game tops a slender Friday
night card that also includes Mi
ami (Fla.) VS.. Holy Cross, Denver
VS.. Montana and Davidson VS..
Presbyterian.
Then on Saturday come such
games as Oklahoma VS.. Texas at
Dallas, Wisconsin VS.. Rice (the

Oklahoma moved to the front in
while refraining from competition
in anticipation of the Texas game
while other leaders were being en-
quilted in a wave of upsetS. With
Gene Calame, their star quarter
back, still out of action and soph-
omore Jim Harris taking his place,
the SoonerS may be in for bad
time this week.
Oklahoma coach Bud Wilkinson
admits he has a better than 'fair
team and he thinks Harris can do
the job. But Texas beaten by No
tre Dame two weeks ago, looks on
this game as an opportunity to re-
instate the idea that it is by far
the best team in the Southwest.
The Rice-Wisconsin m e n G
brings together two of the seasons
most talented and colorful backs
on any major teams. It's Rice's
Dicky Moegle, a speedy, elusive
runner against Wisconsin'S Alan

tacklers. Wisconsin is the No. 8
team in this weeks AP poll behind

.Upsets Seen
In nSECSlate
On Saturday
BY MERCER BAILEY
Associated Press Sports Writer

Since upsets almost have become
the rule rather than the exception
this season in Southeastern Con-
ference football, logical question
for today is, (Which favorite gets
bumped off this weekend?"
There are three major candi-
dates. Auburn, Georgia Tech and
Mississippi are favorites who 90
against teams capable of rising
high enough to make monkeys of
them.
Auburn, whipped last week
Florida, goes to Lexington for d
night game with Kentucky, winner
by one point over Louisiana State.
Tech is host to LSU, whose big
line is expected to crimp the Vel
low Jackets running game. Ole
Miss has night game at Wander
bilt, a team which put up terrific
battles against Baylor and Ala
bama.
Another upset possibility is Tu-
lane over Mississippi State. AL
though the Greenies have yet to
win a game They lost to Tech and
tied Memphis State and North
Carolina.
Other SEC teams meet non-con-
ference teams and three should
spend fairly comfortable after
moons. Alabama and Tennessee,
both pointing to their Oct. is
clash, are heavy favorites over
Tulsa and Chattanooga, respect
lively. Florida ought to find Glenn
son relatively tame after Rice,
Tech and Auburn. Georgia's tilt
with North Carolina in Chapel Hill
is regarded a tossup.
Sizing 'em up:
MISSISSIPPI over Vanderbilt:
Ole Miss has an edge in manpower
but Vandy may make it close.
AUBURN over Kentucky: This
may be the make or break stage
for both teams-and Auburn with
its K and Y units has more depth
and drive. But Kentucky could
make it a close one.
GEORGIA TECH over LSU: LSU
has big line but Tech speed and
air power should make the differ
ence.
| MISSISSIPPI STATE over Tu,
lane: The Greenies are improving
but they can't yet match the Of.
1 fense art of Art Davis, top SEC
ground gamer, and other Maroon
backs.
FLORIDA over Clemson: The
Gators should be abe to make
it a lop-sided victory if they
haven't suffered a slump after
their Tech and Auburn triumphS.

fects of its loss to Mississippi
