Game Man WHETHER CAMP WILSON PLAYS GOLF or not been a par breaker just the same He certainly shattered it in bovd games Few collegians get the chance to play in one bowl game Wilson played in four It started in the' wartime Sun Bowl of 1943 Wilson was fullback for HurHin-Sirnmnn Cowboys who met the famed Second Air Force Bombers a service club loaded with All-Americans The Servicemen prevailed 13-7 Wilson scored the H-SU touchdown and was on his way to the tying touchdown in the fleeting moments of the game but was caught In 1944 Wilson played with Tulsa in the Sugar Bowl The Golden Hurricane lost to Georgia Tech 20-18 Tulsa went to the Orange Bowl in 1945 and got even with Georgia Tech beating the Yellow Jackets 26-12 And in short-lived Oil Bowl at Houston the Tulsans come a cropper to Georgia 14-7 Wilson was in all of these bowl games and scored in all of them bowl education was helped along by the war He first matriculated at Hardin-Simmons Then he went into the service At Hardin-Simmons he was the victim of a lawn mower accident The Achilles tendon on his left foot was severed The Army gave him a physical discharge because of that injury but by wearing a' special shoe he was able to play football without any slow-down Traded for Layne AFTER HIS ARMY DISCHARGE Wilson looked around at other colleges Tulsa was settled upon Henry Frnka was making a national power out of that school Camp sorry he went there He got to play three seasons against some of the best colleges And be was treated very well financially Those Tulsa oilmen backed the Frnka-coached team with an abundance of greenbacks Some of the currency found its way to the players and by saying that I hope the NCAA is not going back that far and punish Tulsa Anyway Camp graduated with high football honors and went to play with the Detroit Lions He was with the National Professional Football League five seasons The man he was traded for has since become a household word and in some times a barroom word The Lions got Bobby Layne from the now defunct Boston team which was owned by Kate Smith the singer' in exchange for Wilson Camp report to Boston But instead quit football and went to work for American Bitumuls a subsidiary of the Standard Oil Co His company barges in raw asphalt from South America and job has been to sell it to road-building concerns all over the country Tired of Road CAMP IS BACK IN EL PASO AND tired of the road had enough roaming as a football player and traveling salesman Might settle down here with an oil company or another concern This is where Wilson started his football career At one of the local grade schools Thai he was one of Jewell finest fulbacks at El Paso High School Today he weighs about the same as he did when he was a pro 205 pounds Camp has had no desire to go Into coaching "I could have become the backfield ooadi of the Lions in 1954 had I wanted the When he went into pro ball there was a good deal of competition for players The National Football League had a rival in the American League Salaries were good because of competitive bidding for players The same situation exists today So Wilson says a players market But he believes the new league will not last and its top franchises will eventually be taken over by the NFL Camp says pro football today is a smoother and more polished game than it was when he played it because the coaches and players have become smarter He agrees that it has been a good thing to Mm and that athletics offer a youth chances to make influential friends and good connections He indicates that he will not be sorry if Warren Camp Wilson Jr 10' becomes highly proficient in football or fina race' Commercial Loop Opens Commercial Softball a opens its sixth straight season tonight with
