Orange Bowl Committee Special there were times when I thought it was actually an Ole Miss alumni train This thought was inspired by reaction to my choice of Louisiana State to win the big game at Baton Rouge tonight In picking the Tigers I conceded ''''''c'' might subject me to charges of treason i CI had not realized so many Miamians 1: thought the Rebels would end the Tigers' 18 game winning streak There were 242 pet kc ple on the OB Special and 240 of 'em must 0 4 think the Rebels will win They could be I right- 1r 4 native It was okay these smart guys saying CERNIGUA I was wrong What hurt was so many of 'em insisting on betting It is unfair to de mand that a sports writer back his judgment with cold cash That's a good way to go broke A few of 'em insulted me into bets One was Jim Cerniglia the Tomato King Jim has never been in Mississippi but he was outraged that a man would pick against a teara from his home state After congdeiable negotiating we agreed on an even wager This was quite a concession from Centiglia who usually has points to protect him A Cerniglia is even tougher to deal with on the golf course Once he Insisted that an opponent start him 9 up in an 18-hole match "But I wouldn't have a chance of winning" the rival protested "Yeah" Jim agreed "But you could break even" Vaught Made Glutei Nag CURRENTLY Coach Paul Dietzel of ISU is probably better known than Coach Johnny Vaught of Ole Miss Over 1 a period of time the latter has had more I winning teams than Dietzel Johnny hasn't been as spectacular nor as resourceful in naming his teams Whit Go and

home happy about this one They felt the UM athletes made too many mistakes on the field and the coaching staff too too many mistakes by substituting wildly when plays ready were starting There also Is reason to believe Andy Gustafson would be wise to scrimmage his players for 10 minutes or so inunediately before next Friday's kickoff so they'll be ready to play once it arrives Start Photo by John Walther UM's Diamond Has It Rough Leg Pain Adds Salt To 22-3 Wound College High School Scores Friday Night Biscayne Smashes Records TAUGHT When Conerly returned to Ole Miss from the Marines for his senior year he was not too much interested in football Vaught called Conerly into his office and said "Con erly you can be the greatest if ymi just- get- into i1lape-7 I'll make an All-America of you and I'll guarantee that you get a tremendous pro contract Just tell me you won't and we'll forget you" Conerly didn't say a word He just got in shape and you know what kind of a pro career he's had Notes From the OB Trip AN ARMY BAND serenaded the OBC junketeers at Washington where there was a half-hour layover 1 this so excited Sgt Ernie (Mad Genius) 1 Seller that he probably signed the band for a Miami appearance Jan 1 City Manag- co er Ira Willard gave us a narrative in Alex- andria Va as the train rolled through the city where he began his career as a city manager Betcha there've been a lot of times when Ira wished he was back there Willard says Miami will go ahead with the golf course on the LeJeune Road tract but he thinks it would be a better deal to WILLARD lease the property to private parties and let them build and operate the links This corner agiees If Miami and Metro will not provide recreational facilities they should let others do face the danger of losing more tourists to Broward and Palm Beach counties not to mention Arizona The MAJOR THRILL of the trip came when city editions of The Herald were distributed to the junketeers at Washington It was part of the paper's public service will Magazine Jinx Hold? JUST TO BE DIFFERENT quite a few of the Orange Bowlers think the Air Force will beat the Army at Yankee Stadium today They do have a good chance Cinderella team from the West It looked like an even game until Stafevepost featured Air Force in its current issue Post editors have argued with me about it but these articles are a jinx Last week they wrote up Sid Gillman and his Los Angeles Rams were soundly thrashed A few years back a Southwest coach was written up in the Post That week his team not only lost but the coach's wife sued him for divorce Coach Ben Martin of the Falconsuses a Flexible system This calls for the Falcons operating from an unbalanced line and features such wrinkles as split ends halfbacks in motion and frequent reverses Air Force officers helped launch their football missile they donated $170000 to get the football program going Coach Ben Martin a former Navy roan was an excellent choice for the Air Force coaching post He accepts the restrictions of Cadet life and makes virtually no demands of his players off the field OBC Has Extra Interest in Flyers THE 'ARMY isn't exactly scared Rookie Coach Dale Hall has his team ready and Miamian Joe Caldwell is prepared to direct the Cadets to victory "I can't ask for a Cadet's free time" says Martin" He needs it more than I do The only exceptions are that I manage to eat lunch twice a week with the quarterbacks and twice a week with the linebackers who call defensive signals That's for 40 minutes including eating time" Be that as it may the Air Force has made tremendous strides in football and the brass goes for bowl games That interests the OBC which for this year at least is plagued with a problem in picking a team to meet the "Little Eight" representative Another thing that interests Miamians in the Falcons Is that they play Coach Andy Gustafson's Hurricanes in Miami next year Burned by Auburn's 'I8-yard scoring pass in the first 50 seconds last Friday the Hurricanes got caught with their

and took off for the north sidelines His great speed carried him around Jon Mirilovich and into an alley formed by a horde of navy-blue shirts Threading the sidelines he appeared on the verge of stepping out of bounds at Miami's 85 And the Hurricane defenders seemed to give up their effort not much at best But it wasn't so and all Bird had to do was run the final 30 yards unthreatened With just 350 consumed on the clock his placement made it 7-0 Curd promptly directed his troops 67 yards to the Kentucky eight where an illegal procedure penalty shoved them back to the 13 After two Curci
