William Dunkerley, manager, says 40 out of the average of 50 a day are from rabid Texans who feel convinced their representative will get the bid and want to be in on the ground floor. One applicant from Amarillo sent a signed check, the amount left blank, and requested: ''Fill it out for whatever it costs to get 10 seats to the Rose Bowl game." These applications cannot be honored, because the Pacific Coast Conference team alone, and not the Tournament of Roses Association, handles such matters. The minute Stanford is elected officially by the conference Al Masters will set up headquarters in Pasadena and start to work on meeting application demands.
