Two short weeks ago, Texas
A6SM was the toast of the
Southwest Conference-an I'M
defeated, united powerhouse
that was ready to play host in
the Cotton Bowl on New Years
Day.
But the two weeks have been
like two years for the weary
Aggies. First, they were licked
by Rice. Then. on Thanks
giving Day, they fell before
Texas and right out of con-
sideration.
Now, the talk is all Rice and
Texas, and the Cotton Bowl
bigwigs will have their problem
solved after today's action.
Depending on the outcome of
the games, the teams that will
appear in the January l game
are an open secret-Rice VS..
Navy.
All Rice had to do was get
past Baylor (Which doesn't own
a league victory for the South
west Conference title and the
automatic bid.
Beat Rice Earlier
If Baylor happens to win,
or the game winds up in a
tie, then Texas goes a-bowlin' !,
having beaten Rice earlier in
the year.
There's a possibility the de-
f1ated Aggies will get to the
Bowl to oppose Missis-
sippi or Mississippi State,
whichever wins today.
The Sugar Bowl directors say
they will announce their selec-
tons at 6 pm. (EST).

The Redskins weren't wor-
ried about anything in particu-
lar today as they prepared to
fly to Chicago to battle the
Bears tomorrow in their final
road game of the season. But
they could be worried about q
lot of things.
Eight-point favorites, the
Bears seem to have the neces-
sary tools to hack out another
win over their Washington
cousins. The Bears have won
their last six league meetings
for a 1915 edge in the series.
A few years ago, in an exhi-
bition game between the two
at Memphis, Perry Jeter re-
turned a kickoff 80 yards for
a Chicago touchdown. Tomor-
row the Redskins not only must
contend with Jeter again, but
also with Willie Galimore. a
mercury-footed rookie from
Florida Ann. If it's power
they want, the Bears can call
on Rick Casares, the leagues
leading ground-gainer last
year.
In passing the Bears have a
3-to-2 numerical edge starting
out. with Ed Brown, George
Blanda and 2eke Bratkowski to
throw the ball. The Redskins
have only Eddie LeBaron and
Rudy Bukich, and, unless Coach
Jos Kuharich has last-minute
change in plans. Bukich will be
a spectator most Of the after
noon.
The Redskins feel that the
Bears AS record, like their
own 2-6-l reading. does not ac-
curately reflect the teams pow
or. The Chicago club just as
easily could be 6-3 and on top
Of the Western Division instead
of tied for fourth, with a couple
OF breaks in the right spots.

Colts a couple of weeks ago"

of becoming the all-time money

Last week, when Swoon's Son

like he might become the third

CITY CHAMPS COULD REPEAT AGAIN
St. Johns Wins Crown
For I'd Straight Year
By BOB HANSON

For the second straight year,
st. Johns is the city scholastic
football champion and it would
come as no surprise to most
If the Cadets do it again next
year.
Before a crowd of 14,500 last
night at Griffith Stadium, the
Cadets, after a slow start, put
together a fine passing and
running game to defeat Ana
costa, 21-6.
The same two teams met last
year for the city title and st.
Johns prevailed, 1912. On
that squad we're many gradu-
ates from the ranks Of the
CYO football teams.
1t was no different this year
and with 20 returning from a
squad of "a the Cadets will be
tough to handle next season.
But it is doubtful if Coach
Joe Gallagher will come up
with as polished a performer
as Quarterback John Piazza
whose passing and all-around
ball handling last night kept
st. Johns out front and Ana
costa continually on the de-
Tense.
Piazza, 5-foot-l0, 185-pound
senior who passed for nine
touchdowns in regular season
play, hit the target for two
last night and scored on a
sneak from the 1-foot line
after Bob McCleary set it up
with a scintillating 42-yard run.
Scoreless First Quarter
Neither team scored in the
first quarter although Ana
costa, with Jack Burke carry
ing the load, made gains up
the middle.
Their running game had
improved considerably since we
last saw them" Gallagher said
of the Indians after the game.
But we made a few defensive
changes and it helped"
Whatever the changes, the
defensive job turned in by
Linebacker Joe McHahon and
Center Bob Fletcher contained
the Indians and forced them
to go to the air, with despera-
ton passes by Burke finally
