Dec. 28 (UP) It will be a blistering iim: tack against a rock-ribbed cJ fense here on New Year's Day when the elevens of Ole Miss and Catholic university meet in Miami second annual Orange Bowl game.

The football filberts of the town see in to be pretty well divided ln their opinions on which will prevail, for tonight It waa even money and take your choice. Ole Miss Is the team with the attack. In 11 games during the regular season the boya irom tho hog and hominy country rolled across their opponents' goal lines for 292 points. The spear pad of this attack la Roy Hapes, a 164 pound sophomore, who led the South eastern conference In scoring. Hapos is one of those rarities a genuine uiple-threater, and backs up his running didoes with fancy kicking and fancier passing.

The Southerners use the Warner system for their trickery, and they have developed the Intrleute spins and fakes to a high point of perfection. Asainst the Confederates the men of Catholic will throw a. forward wall that averages Just a pound shy of 200 from wing to wing. And guarding those wings, incidentally, will be Herman Schmarr and George Mulligan, two of the finest wlngmen the East produced in 1935.

Palling to live up to his reputation as a pessimist, Couch Matty Bell promised his galloping Mustangs would be In the best physical condition of the seuson. "We don't rate to be the favorites," Bell told Coach Claude (Tiny) Thornhlll, mentor of the western representatives, when they met at the train, "and neither do you. Its a good even ball game."

Prom casual observation In the two camps there was a faint indication that the opposing teams might abandon their usual role. Southern Methodist, famous for its aerial circus of forwards and literals, showed a letuUng toward running plays. Stanford, primarily a hard driving power team, was throwing the ball around with Bobby Orayson and BUI Paulman on the chucking end. There was the possibility, of course, that these unusual tactics merely wore moves designed to disguise their real Intentions. While the S.

U. offensive plans were wrapped In the Honk of secrecy, there wh no seerei that Hobby Hllson, the great Utile halfback who ran wild ajr.nl nut the I'nlverslty of California at Los Angeles Nov. 11. would he given free rein In an effort, to nut tch Die work of Oravsoii as a ground gainer.

wtx Karpowicn at tacit Death Claims 30 Players During 1935 Grid Year Eastwood Report And Urges Changes At N. C. A. A. Meeting NEW YORK, Dec.

38. JP Better playing conditions and a Closer supervision of the sport were urged today by Prof. Floyd Eastwood, of New York University, after reporting to the American Football Coaches Association that the gridiron sport was directly responsible for 30 deaths in 1935, The survey, completing a five-year study of the problem, showed that 15 of the deaths occurred In high schools. Seven players were fatally Injured In athletic club games, five In sand lot competition, and three In college play. Increase Is General Except for the colleges, there was an Increase In every division over 1034 when Prof.

Eastwood found 35 fatalities attributed directly to football. Last year there were only 13 In the high school and four each In aand lot, college and athletic club competition. High schools, showing ft slow but steady Increase, also topped the five-year list with 65 of the 147 deaths Twenty came from the colleges, 34 from the athletic clubs, and 88 from the sand lota. Eastwood reported 18 other deaths which were originally charged to football during 1935 but which, he revealed were not due directly to the game. Over the fl ve-year period 88 such deaths have been reported.

Fatalities due to infection following an Injury or not associated with football as a game make up this category. HugRests Safer Ways As ft solution. Prof. Eastwujd suggested better playing surface for both practice games an I Inter-scholastic competition, pre -season medical exsminatlon of all candidates, adequate time for conditioning of players before the first game, properly equipped players, elimination of "live bait" for tackling practice, and vigorous warming-up periods. He would also open up Ihs game, as far as line play is concerned, snd give greater protection to the forward passer and punter in hieh school and the kicker tn college.

Prof. Eastwood found that the majority of the fatalities occurred either In the first or fourth quarters, the order named, and that most them happened to halfbacks, tacklts and ends. Sixty-three per cent 'A the fatalities for the ftvt-year perloU occurred while the Individual was tackling. 13 per cent while blocking, 13 per cent when tackled, eight per cent when kicked or kneed, four per rent when under a pile-up and one per cent when carrying the ball through the line. (Associated tress rnoios) Giants Expect Marberry To Be Correct Tonic Ex-Senator Hangs Up Mask To Make Comeback For Bill Terry NEW YORK, Dec.

28. (Special) Fred Marberry took, a squint through the grating of an umpire's mask last season and, after playing all by his lonesome for several months, decided against continuing the solitary life much longer. Big Fred was handed his uncon ditional release soon after the 103b season started. Mickey Cochrane figured the power of Firpo's right arm had outlived Its usefulness to a pennant-winning team. The steady grind of rushing to the relief of a team-mate had finally taken Its toll.

Instead of helping the Tigers Mar berry was considered taking up space that would otherwise be more beneficial In having a promising rookie on tne joo. Well iked As I mp Marberry had twelve years of hon orable service In the majors, bis conduct on and off the held was exemplary. When he applied tor Job ae umpire, President Harridge was only too pleased to oblige. Ftrpo Is not the kind testy ball players like to "ride." Not that Marberry cannot take care of hlmscir. He stands six feet, two Inches and hefts more -than 200 pounds on his large frame.

The Texan haa no grudge and has gotten along well with everyone during his long service. The likeable big fellow was the kind who, while quiet, likes the company ot his mates and the rule compelling umpires to lead a monks life or nearly absolute solitude grated on hid nature. No one had any cause for complaint at the decisions ren dered by Marberry. So when he gave up the mask it waa not bocause he could not take the Jibes and hoota ol players and fans. Terry Didn't Hesltnle Marberry has been taking care ot himself.

His arm feels stronger than It did when the season opened Iftflt year. With this In mind Flrpo sound ed out the sentiment of various managers and at the last convention held at Chicago found a nady ns tener in Bill Terry of the New York Oisnts, Terry needs capable relief pitcher badly. "I've seen Marberry pitch and know what he can do. It is only ft question of his arm. If Fred can deliver I don't know anyone I would rather have on rny team than tne former Iron Man of the Senators." Terry should know about Marberry.

The latter figured in four game against the Giants In lf24. hurled eifiht innings snd struck out ten while on the mound. Marberry did not win any Karnes. He was charged with one defeat, but his relief work enabled the Senators to hold their lead and win out in four games out of seven. With any kind of a break and a smooth soup-bone.
