California, Northwestern Meet In 35th Rose Bowl
By ARLO H. BAILEY
The University of California will be trying for its third Rose bowl victory when the Bears meet the Northwestern Wildcats, Saturday, Jan. 1, 1949.
The Bears have a record of two victories, one loss and one tie in Rose bowl competition. Northwestern has never played in the Rose bowl. Cali-
The Beats have a record of two bowl competition. Northwestern has ifornala's only loss was a 7 to 8 defeat by Georgia Tech in 1929. Tech is the only team that has scored on the Bruins in the Rose bowl. Washington and Jefferson gained a scoreless tie in 1922 and in 1921 California beat Ohio State 29 to 0. In 1938 the Beats defeated Alabama 13 to 0.
Michigan won the first and last Rose bowl games by identical scores, 49 to 0. The Wolverines defeated Stanford in 1902 and the University of Southern California in 1948 for a perfect Rose bowl record.
Three service teams and 28 college eleveens have competed in the New Year's game at Pasadena. The University of Southern California has played in 10 of the 32 contests and has gained a record of eight victories and two defeats. The other teams who have played in four or more Rose bowl games and their records are: (the records are in the order of won, lost and tied.) Stanford (3-4-1), Alabama (4-1-1), California (1-3-1), Pittsburgh (1-3-1), and Washington U. (0-3-1).
There have been 34 Rose bowl contests. In 1902 the first game was played, but from 1903 through 1915 there was no competition. Service teams played in 1918 and 1919.
Only in 1944 was the contest not intersectional. The University of Southern California defeated the University of Washington 29 to 0. The West Coast conference representatives have won 15, teams from the other sections have won 13, and three have been tied.
Michigan leads all other Rose bowl contestants with two victories and no losses. Those with a one game won and none lost are: Oregon State, Harvard, Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, Columbia, Georgia, and Illinois.
The remaining teams in order of rank are: Southern California (8-2-0), Alabama (4-1-1), California (2-1-1), Washington State (1-1-0), Oregon (1-1-0), Navy (0-0-1), Washington and Jefferson (0-0-1), Stanford (3-4-1), Pittsburgh (1-3-0), and Washington (0-3-1). Those with one loss and no victories are Brown, Pennsylvania, Ohio St., Pennsylvania St. Tulane, Southern Methodist university, and Nebraska. The University of California at Los Angeles, Duke and Tennessee have lost two games and won none.

Topeka, Dec. 17—(UP)—Washburn University basketball hopes hinge on big Tom Carlson's scoring pace.
In view of the veteran center's shotmaking so far, that appeared a fair size-up of the situation. Carlson has already corralled 63 points in three games this season.
Eugene, Ore., Dec. 17—(UP)—Ore-
gon asked for Doak Walker on New
Year's day, and that's what its gettin-
The 6-3 hoopster, also fired 21 points last night as Washburn's Ichabods won their third straight game, beating Omaha 57 to 49.
Like a post-Christmas wish come true, University of Oregon's football team will have an opportunity to put its hero, Norman Van Brocklin, on the same field with Southern Methodist university's great man—Doak Walker, the player-of-the-vear.
Dallas Gets Stars' Duel
Oregon tied California for the Pacific Coast conference championship. The conference vote for a representative in the Rose bowl went to California, to Oregon's intense disappointment.
The collision will occur in the Cotton bowl at Dallas.
For a few days after the vote was announced, there was a period of bafflement on the Oregon campus. During this period, the Oregon squad took an informal poll of its members. If not the Rose bowl, what? Well, the results of the poll showed that the Webfoots wanted to play against either (1) Doak Walker or (2) Charlie (Choo-Choo) Justice of North Carolina on New Year's day. The team got its answer when the Cotton bowl committee invited Oregon, and the Pacific Coast conference—perhaps establishing a precedent—approved Oregon's participation in a bowl game not played in Pasadena.

Track Squad To Try Dusting Indoor Records
The Kansas indoor track squad will have some records, that have been standing for many years, to dust off this season.
The indoor track records for Kansas are: 50 yard dash .052 set by John Haddock in 1910 and tied in 1928 by Lowell Grady, 60 yard dash .062:1E by Ed Hall in 1933, quarter-mile .51:20 by John Johnson in 1947, 660 yard run 1:18:0 by Fred Rodkey in 1920, half-mile 1:57:0 by Glenn Cunningham in 1934, who also set the mile record of 4:08:0 in 1934, the 1000 meter run of 2:12:2 in 1934 and the 1500 meter run record of 3:52:2 also set in 1934. Bernie Frasier set the two-mile record of 9:31:7 in 1927.
The 50 yard low hurdle record of :05.8 was recorded by Everett Bradley in 1922. William Nichols set the 50 yard high hurdle mark of :07.0 in 1930. The 60 yard low hurdle record of :07.1 and the 60 yard high hurdle record of :07.7 were both turned in by Frank Stannard in 1944.
Elwyn Dees set the shot put mark of 48 feet 10 inches in 1934. In 1946 Tom Scofield jumped 6 feet $3\frac{1}{2}$ inches for the high jump record. Lowell Grady pushed the broad jump mark to 23 feet $8\frac{1}{4}$ inches in 1928. The pole vault record of 13 feet $4\frac{1}{4}$ inches was set by Clyde Coffman in 1934.
the All-America first team, there are plenty of partisans in the Oregon country who think he is best field general and passer in the nation. Now the partisans want to find out what happens when Oregon's "playing coach" meets the football Man of the Year.
