Duke Goes To Rose Bowl
To Meet Strong Oregon
State For Nation's Classic.
Now that the Orange bowl finally
has jelled, look 'em over and take
your choice for the New Year's day
football extravaganzas:
Rose Bowl Oregon State (beat
en twice) vs. Duke (unbeaten, un
tied).
Sugar Bowl Fordham (beaten
once) vs. Missouri (ditto).
Cotton Bowl Texas A, & M
(beaten once) vs. Alabama (beaten
twice).
Orange Bowl Georgia (beaten
once, tied once) vs. Texas Chris
tian university (beaten twice, tied
once).
The entry of Alabama and TCU
into the bowl program was a sur
prise. It left unbeaten and untied
Duquesne out of the major bowl
assignments.
Alabama and TCU, however, are
a pair of bowl old reliables. The
Crimson Tide has gone to the Rose
Bowl five times, winning three
games, losing one and tying one,
TCU has won two games in the
Sugar bowl and one in the Cotton
bowl for a perfect bowling score.
Duke Only Perfect Team
For the first time since the bowl
business branched out into a four
play New Year's day pick-me-up,
only one perfect-record team is in
volved. That is Duke. Last Jan. 1,
for instance, there were three
Stanford in the Rose bowl and
Boston college and Tennessee in
the Sugar bowl. And Mississppi
State in the Orange bowl had only
a tie against its perfect record.
Nebraska and Georgetown, the othr
er teams in the Rose and Orange
bowls had been beaten only once as
had the Cotton bowl antagonists,
Texas A. & M., and Fordham.
Whether Duquesne, with a per
fect slate, sounded out in the bowl
negotiations has not yet been dis
closed, but the Dukes presumably
would not have .been averse to a
New Year's day jaunt since their
athletic coffers admittedly were de
pleted. The participants for the Sun
bowl game at El Paso, Tex., have
not been chosen, but Arizona is ex
pected to draw the Western assign
ment if it wins its final game with
Utah this week.
The Georgia-TCU clash shapes
up as the natural. TCU agreed to
play late last night shortly after
University of Texas had declined
the Orange offer, preferring to
concentrate on its game this week
with Oregon.
TCU Lost Two. Tied One
TCU has lost to Texas A. & M
and Fordham and been tied by
Rice, but its victims include Texas,
the team that knocked the Aggies
from the unbeaten ranks. The
Christians have been short-handed
nearly all year with their star,
