THECLUBHOUSE- Greatest Year in Southwest Football Slated This Year By HAROLD V. RATLIFF way for the greatest football the Southwest Conference ever has turned out. That is the studied opinion of veteran coaches as the seven move into spring training. There will be close to 200 lettermen in the seven camps, all except 25 of them from 1946. The latter will be numeral-winners of other years back from the service to finish out their eligibility.

Last fall the conference pro- during some fine football hut thf coaches said then that great football was a year away. Returned servicemen have adjusted themselves through a season of play, weak war-time material has been weeded out and every team will be bulging with veterans who won their Legal Notice ORDINANCE NO 1151A AN ORDINANCE TO AMEND AN ORDINANCE ENTITLED "An Ordinance prohibiting, within certain territory, the usc privies, cesspools, cJosets or other equipment or things used for the disposal of sewage matter when not connected with the sanitary sewerage system of the City of Paris. and requiring the same to be removed or abated; requiring property owners to connect such privies, cesspools, closets, or other equipment or things used for the disposal of sewage matter with the said sewerage system: charges for sewerage service; and, fixing penalties for violation of this ordinance; and declaring an emer- rrr.cy being Ordinance No. 1151 of the City of Paris, and declaring an BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF PARIS: Section 1.

Matty Bell, Southern Methodist University coach, predicts the conference, which in 1938 and 1939 produced national championship teams, will be the strongest in history. John Barnhill, coach of defending co-champion Arkansas, expects all teams to be stronger and so does Coach Homer Norton of Texas A M. Coach Dutch Meyer of Texas Christian declares: "The conference as a whole will be the strongest ever in 1947. This is not to say that the championship team will be the best team ever developed. I am talking about overall, average strength.

Reasons for this are: very few experienced men were lost from last season; the many veterans returning have added experience; there will be some outstanding returnees, notably Doak Walker; Southern Methodist's triple- theater, and coaches will have all their 1947 players in spring practice. "Last season, for example, TCU used a number of men who came in as freshmen in the fall who would iave performed much better if they had been through spring training. In 1947 these summer and fall freshmen will not be eligible for the varsity since the conference is returning to its freshman rule." Most experienced material will be at iiaylor where 34 lettermen will greet Bob Woodruff, the new head coach who came to the Golden Bears from Georgia Tech to succeed Frank Kimbrough, resigned and now mentor at West Texas State College. Southern Methodist will have 33 lettermen, Arkansas 31, Texas A 27, Texas 26, Rice 25 and Texas Christian 23. However Rice will probably go to the post favored to win the title which it shared with Arkansas last season.

Rice loses few of the players that carried it to a title tie and victory In the Orange Bowl last Jan. 1. Return of Walker, the prize freshman of 1945, to SMU builds that school into top contender class. Many critics rate Walker a greater all-around football player than Bobby Layne of Texas, the nation's leading passer last fall. How goes it with the coach when his team loses a game? Some of the fellows who have been on the hot seat were checked at the recent meeting of the National Football Rules Committee at Camp Mystic.

The rules makers met in Texas for the first time, honoring D. X. Bible of the University of Texas, who retired Jan. 1 as a coach, and who retires from the committee this year after a quarter of a century of service. The calm, apparently imperturbable Bible doesn't seem like a fellow who would let a gridiron licking get him down.

But take it from H. C. (Bully) Gilstrap, Texas line coach, it always was a tough night for the veteran of 34 years of coaching when his team lost. "Josle and says Gilstrap, speaking of his wife, "would go over to Bible's house and try to cheer him up. It was really hard to do." Mrs.

Bible says the telephone calls, telegrams and letters that flood in when the team lost a game certainly didn't help matters, either. Mrs. Lou Little told what she and her husband, the coach of Columbia, do after a defeat. "We just sit and stare glumly," she says. "We don't want to answer the telephone or the doorbell.

Finally some of our friends who know how we feel about it just will come on it. They talk about everything except football.

McNeely now boasts 679 points and goes after the 700-point mark in the NAIB tourney that opens on Monday in Kansas City. Jim Lacy, of Baltimore Loyola, who several weeks ago was only 29 points behind the Southwest star, now is far in the rear with 578 points and apparently had little chance of catching up, although he will participate in the Mason-Dixon tourney opening Thursday night at Washington, D.C.
