'63 Grid Season
Went by Fast
By MORRIS SIEGEL

81 SOMEBODY'S BEEN USING the mails to defraud and
as bloke who still resenS the death of the penny post
card protest
There are scads Of schedules and brochures on the
desk which all say the football isn't due to begin
seriously for three weeks Then there is another
entry also guided here by zip CODE which contends this
lot of hokum.
The dssenter has notion the season is already
that isn't enough to make you want to reach for
tranquilizer the same outfit taunts you even more.
Not satisfied with kissing off the 1868 regular
in few thousand words 1t managed to scrape up few
more phrases to take of the postSeason attractions
as well.
Now that really fricasses to fare-thee-wel tell
ing September that it's no use waiting until De-
cmber to find out who's going to be where New Years
pay.
z MAYBE THERE'S NOTHING illegal about this thing
Look Magazine has done but it's highly unethca and Just
as wrong as telling somebody what you're going to send
him for Christmas.
Look certainly has spoiled the fun for lot of coaches
and publicity men. Tim Cohane the crafty IriShman who
conducts this spoofy dip into the future for Look annually
has taken of the whole invitation list in issue
Wait until Tom Nugent reads about 1t. He'll get the
shock Of his life Maryland isn't given nod especially
That backed which he rates the best he's had at
College Park.
Toms backs may we'll be great, may even be the best
In the country but they took too long prove 1t to Look
With this impetuouS magazine you have got to make 1t
known in July you're dead until the next annual football
tissue.
s. ACCORDING TO CoHANE here's what you'll be seeing
ON New Years Day. 1854.
In the Rose Bowl 1t will be Southern Cal again. but
not against Wisconsin although the Badgers Look says
will repeat in the Big Ten League rules bar them from
back-toback visits, Northwestern with its To record
will to Pasadena. And lose Oh yeah Look not only
makes the schedule but tells you the results.
3 Alabama will roll up 9- Southeastern Conference
record and its year with victory Texas the
Sugar Bowl.
Navy is going to be pretty good which comes as no
surprise Even Wayne Hardin admits It, but Hardin his
recent press brieng mentioned he would play Okla
homa in the orange Bowl game Look takes care Of that
nicely However, 1t picks Oklahoma to win.
90 The Mddies may we'll skip the Southern Methodist
and Nore Dame games They'll oSe the book says Mssis-
sppi will be a-conqueng ending up perfect 100 year
against Arkansas in the Cotton Bowl.
(. sooTHsAy yR CoHANE GOES all the way in picking
winners but he boxes at point He hedged when 1t
came time TO chit Sc MAmerca team He wouldn't be
mailed down to jn II players
Picking ALA Nerca teams in September is carrying
hecromancy too far he writes but 22man selection
In December should nclude many Of the following"
~ Now that's chcke ing out far I'm concerned ANY
man with enough N We to pick the winners Of ITS
.games should whole hog and select The customary IL
imam An-America
AZ The author chortles Ia his windup with a reminder he
picked 127 out Of 1853 TOP Twenty last year 1t
one Of the best seasons he's ever had, he boasts.
81 Bully for you Tim, but II they ever made gambling
-legat I'd like to bookSour bets.
