When this former Washingtonian, now a resi-

a high-fashi0n designer of women's dresses

College football games are
booked for television nearly a
year in advance, and it isn't
easy to come up with a hum
dinger every Saturday. So far,
though, none of them has laid
an egg, and last Saturdays
game-Iowa, IS; Southern Cal,
34-certainly was one of the
most entertaining ever.
About the only weak game
was Mississippi-Arkansas on
September %, when Arkansas
didn't show much. But Ole Miss.
at least, was in good form that
day.
Coming up Saturday is that
hot Big Ten rivalry, Michigan
and Michigan State. Both are
undefeated and practically I'M
scored upon. They're big and
powerful and both play rock
'em, sock 'em football.
Halfback Bernie McRae,
from Newport News, at 1853
pounds is about the smallest
man in the Michigan back
field. He's the Big Ten hurdles
champion and ran away and
hid from Army last week on a
47-yard touchdown run. Mich
igan State remembers him as
a blocker, the man who cleared
out the last Michigan State
player last year on Dennis
Fitzgerald's SO = yard scoring
dash.
The Southeastern Conference
has got to have more first
class quarterbacks than any
other league this year. Practi-
'cally household names already
are Stan Gam. Bob Hunt,
Larry Libertore. Jerry Woolum
and Doug Elmore. Now add to
that list Pat Trammell of I'M
beaten Alabama.
He's been playing good, steady
football all along, but the re-
ports from last Saturdays
game against Vanderbilt say
he was sensational. He scored
three touchdowns and set up
another, ran for ITO yards on
nine carries and completed 6
of 10 passes.
Hank Lesesne. the Vandy
quarterback, almost never
made it as a college player.
He played behind Gam in
