Tennessee Out To Improve Bowl Record By Bob Hoobing The Associated Press Unbeaten, untied Tennessee seeks improvement of an unhappy postseason record in the approaching major football bowl games which include rematches at Pasadena and Jacksonville. Georgia Tech and Pittsburgh get things underway Saturday in the Gator Bowl at Jacksonville, Fla. Tech edged Pitt 7-0 in the Sugar Bowl last January, The same day, the 32nd East- West Shrine All-Star game is set for San Francisco's Kezar stadi um in a scheduled quarterback duel between Paul Hornung of Notr Dame and John Brodie of Stanford.

The Rose Bowl at Pasadena, offers Iowa and Oregon State as champions of the agreement-bound Big Ten and Pacific Coast conferences. Iowa nudged the Beavers 14-13 during the regular season Oct 6. Other New Year's Day attrac tions include Tennessee and Bay lor in the Sugar Bowl, Texas Christian and Syracuse in the Cot ton Bowl and Clemson and Colo- radio in the Orange Bowl. All will be televised (Rose and and Cotton NBC, Gator and Or ange CBS, Sugar ABC) With national champion Okla homa ineligible for bowl competi tion due to a Big Seven confer ence ruling, Tennessee rated No. 2 in the country is the top attraction.

The Vols, tough defensively, workmanlike in their execution of the single-wing offense and engi neered by All America tailback John Majors, tell a sad tale of past bowl experiences. Five times previously, Tennessee has entered a' bowl game with an unbeaten season under its belt but only once could it defeat its post-season challenger. That one time was its first try, Jan. 1, 1939, with a 17-0 decision ver Okla homa in the Orange Bowl. Southern California ruined the Vols 144) in 1940 and 25-0 in '45 at Pasadena.

In the Sugar Bowl, Tennessee lost to Boston college 19-13 in '41 and its national cham pionship team of 1951 fell before Maryland 23-13, The overall Tennessee bowl record Is 3-6, and four times the Vols have been shut out Baylor, which lost only two of 10 games and those by close margins, is a definite underdog but not without its supporters. The Bears lost in both their previous bowl ventures.

(JP)--Bolstered by five players from Oklahoma's na tional champion football team, the North has been established as a one-touchdown favorite over the South in the Shrine's college all-star football game Wednesday night in the Orange Bowl. Taking unusual liberties with the Mason-Dixon line, the North picked the two Oklahoma All-Americas, halfback Tommy Mac- Donald and center Jerry Tubbs, and three other swift Sooners end John Bell, quarterback Jimmy Harris and tackle Ed Gray.

The sponsors let the Yankees get away with this raid into the south, hoping It would balance off the strength of the teams.

The West worked out about 20 miles north of Santa Clara on the Stanford campus.

All of Coach Buck Shaw's charges were suited up except Bill Pricer of Okla homa. The stocky 190-pound full back is recovering from a bruised foot. He'll be ready for the Dec. 29 Shrine benefit. Brennan held a little track meet Saturday, setting up 50-yard dashes among the various positions.

Wilson Whitmlre of Navy won the guards and centers race with All-Amerlcan Jim Parker of Ohio State, a speedster at 268 pounds, righUbehind. Paul Hornung, the Notre Dame quarterback and Brennan's most probable starting choice, worked out with a backfield consisting of halfbacks Abe Woodson of Illi nois and Terry Barr of Michigan and fullback Ray Alberigi of Penn State.

Australia's young, gifted team of Lew Hoad and Ken Rosewill is favored to score a 5-0 sweep. It would be a moral victory if the Yanks, with perhaps the poor est team they ever have fielded, should squeeze out a single match in the three-cay series. The Americans are sending out two relatively old men, Vic Seix-as, 33, and Herbie Flam, 28, against two dashing 22-year-olds who hold every major tournament title in the world.
