Reportedly, they wanted the Bukoviehes very much, not that they are particularly in love with the Bukovich hockey family, but the Buckos are quite some pumpkins as hockey players.

Holy Cross, on a midwest tour, blew a 15-point lead, but came from behind a 39-32 handicap late in the second half to nip Brown, 54-52. Johns made it eleven straight with a 51-50 overtime squeaker against Utah in the first game of a bill at Madison Square Garden.

All-Star Battle In Hermansville Tonight; Peshtigo Tips Quinnesec Scribe Likes Oklahoma, Ohio State, Rice In The Major Bowl Tilts By HARRY GRAYSON NEA Sports Editor Pasadena, do you like in the Bowl Games, as college football fires its last shot? Only two unbeaten and in the four major saucers, but you can testify that all are well matched, and say it again.

This off-side prediction is that: Ohio State will be a touchdown tougher than California in the Pasadena Rose Bowl, Jan. 2. Yes, Rose Bowl Has Had Its Side Lights! Pixies Get Loose And Players Get Playful Pasadena, Dec. 28 This Rose Bowl football enterprise is serious business, a little on the severe side as befits its age as the grandfather of all the bowl contests. But think it had its funnier moments, some of them behind the scenes, and if things keep on as they have in the past, the Rose Bowl might even lose some of its dignity.

There are times leading up to the game, you see, when things actually get pretty dull. The players wander around their hotel lobbies, exchanging whispers about whatever players whisper about, and little excitement can be generated about a routine blocking drill on the practice field. Playful Pixie the warning signal should be hoisted, for inevitably when some playful pixie gets out of his cage and begins to chew away at the carpets There was the time a few years ago, it may now be told, when this wild pixie got loose and before anyone could even call the cops there was a thick thud, a grapple in the semidarkness of a hallway and one of the Huntington nicest chairs was broken when it was struck by a head. The head belonged to the official family of one of the schools charity even to this day declines to further identify the for a time the situation was grave and very hilarious. Fractured chairs just belong in the distinguished history of the Rose Bowl.

Loose Again Already this year, with Ohio State and California plugging away for the game Jan. 2. the Rose Bowl scene has been stirred by (1) a report that Wes Fesler had quit as Buckeye coach, and (2) the Buckeye squad was torn asunder by dissension. Fesler may well resign after next Monday but he was still on deck still unhappy about the premature report of his coaching demise. As for the dissension, that stirred up quite a fewr souls, including the athletic director.

Mr. Dick Larkins. It may be disclosed that Mr. Larkins was forced to step into a cold room out of a hot shower bath at an early hour to answer the phone and deny the rumor. It is very likely that Mr.

Larkins was not as mad about the rumor as he was about denying the rumor while dripping wet. There was the time before the 1947 game when Ray Eliot did have to dispatch two of his Illinois players home because they seemed to have missed the last street car home at dawn one morning, and just last December one Hollywood report pictured Fullback Art Murakowski leaving by the back door of Ciros just as Northwestern Coach Bob Voigts entered the front way. This provided the setting for a fine rhubarb and the only trouble was that it must have been two other gentlemen leaving by opposite doors at Ciros. If it was Murakowski, though, all coaches should send their boys to Ciros. The fullback had quite a day in the Rose Bowl.

Oklahoma will hit too rapidly from its split and in too many places, for Louisiana State in the New Orleans Sugar Bowl. The difference figures to be at least a pair of touchdowns. The Rice seniors will out st eady and outlast North Carolina Chou Justice, Dick Bunting, Art Weiner and there be much more than a whisker between them in the Dallas Cotton Bowl. Improved Santa Clara should keep its head in front of Kentucky in the Miami Orange. Maryland, on the slow side, is two or three lengths out of its league tackling Missouri in the Jacksonville Stanford will enjoy the ride and romp against Hawaii in the Honolulu Pineapple.

Among men who know stars best, the East three-to- one in the Shrine East-West Game at San Kezar Stadium, Dec. 31. California is a six-point faforite ofer Ohio State, but force of habit keeps us on the Big Nine side. Besides, the Buckeyes possess superior speed and passing. The Tournament of Roses will have many a thorn for Pacific Coast Conference football if the Golden Bears again are thrown for a loss.

Louisiana State knocked off North Carolina, the Southern Conference champion; Tulane, the Southeastern titlist, and ruler of the Southwest roost, but Oklahoma is something else again. The Sooners have the horses, especially in the linemen Wade Walker, Stanley West and captain Jim Owens, plus George Thomas, the leading major college scorer, and the sleight of hand man, Darrell Koyal. Big 10 Has .764 Percentage Against Non-Loop Rivals Chicago, Dec. 28 Big Ten basketball teams will go into battle tonight against non-conference foes in a bid to better the Big current .764 percentage against outside competition. The doubleheader menu matches Ohio State against Cornell at East Lansing, while the host team, Michigan State, entertains Harvard.

At Iowa City, the Hawk- eyes play Ducks, who bowed to Loyola of Chicago, 70 to 53 last night, and Wisconsin opposes Rutgers in the nightcap of the twin bill. Also on card Michigan will take the floor as a guest team in the Big Seven tournament at Kansas City, meeting Missouri. Minnesota and Illinois added victories over Oregon State and Columbia, respectively, last night to give the Big Ten teams a 42 to 13 bulge in triumphs over league foes. The Gophers tipped Oregon State, 51 to 41 on the West Coast, while Illinois crushed the Lions, 58 to 46 at Champaign. It was fifth victory in six games and sixth decision in eight starts.

In another Midwestern feature last night Bradlev tuned up for its Sugar Bowl meeting with Tulane at New Orleans tomorrow by nipping De Paul of Chicago. 68 to 65. The win gave the Peoria Braves an 8-1 record. Their only defeat was by Purdue. In addition to the Bradley-Tulane game tomorrow the Midwestern University menu also features: UCLA at Northwestern; Minnesota vs.

Stanford at San Francisco; Cornell at Michigan State; Harvard vs. Ohio State at East Lansing, Purdue vs. Butler at Indianapolis; Indiana vs. Notre Dame at Indianapolis. Peshtigo, Dec.

Northern Rockets clinched the first half NWM championship in convincing fashion by defeating Quinnesec, 71-46, here last night. The two were tied with four wins and one loss each. And with that accomplishment went the right to meet the Northern Wisconsin Michigan Basketball league all-star team in the Hermansville Community building gymnasium at 8:15 tonight. Opposing the speedy Rockets will be quintet combinations to be selected from the following all- star squad: Tony and Steve Machalk of Hermansville, Tom Paternoster and Willard Baker of Quin- jnesec, Bill Paiter and Jim Johnson Iron River, Tom Corcoran and i Gig Gagliardi of Ishpeming and Walt Wentela and John DalSanto of Republic. Big; Crowd Expected Glenn Fleetwood, of Hermansville, was named manager of the all-star squad, and officials tonight will be Bob Tacker, of Hermansville, and Frank Nowack, of Spalding.

game promises to be a bangup Frank Rodman, of Hermansville, NWM president, said. lot of enthusiasm is being shown, and we anticipate a big crowd tonight. Basketball needs a shot in the arm in Hermansville. This may be it. At any rate, a very good game is in prospect.

Peshtigo Rockets are a first-class club, but the all-star squad will be tough Quinnesec got a last-half surprise from the Rockets here last night. It used a zone defense very effectively the first half, holding the score down to 22-18 at the intermission, but the Rockets went into a stall and instead of holding their zone, the Quinnesec cagers began going after the ball, and that broke it in favor. It was a runaway in the last half. Schacht was high scorer for Peshtigo last night, dunking in 13 points on eight field goals and a brace of free throws. Ronnie Blomberg, Jack Carter and Surk, however, were not far away, however, each tallying 14 counters.

scoring was well divided.
