Dean's Vote: 'No
School Saturday'
The Council of Deans has voted
to not have classes on Saturday,
Dec. 4, as was previously an­nounced.
Dean Roger Allen, dean of the
School of Science and Literature,
stated that the council voted to
rescind their previous decision
because of several factors.
"After school was closed for
one and' a half days during the
acute water shortage, the council
voted to make up a full day on
Saturday, Dec. 4," stated Dean
Allen. '
"Now," he continued, "the
deans, have reconsidered, and
feei that because of the cbntinu-.
ing water shortage, and the ques­tion
of many students and facul­ty
on which day was to be made
up, that it would be wise not to
schedule classes" this Saturday.
Dean Allen also stated that the
fall quarter has two more days in
it than each of thej other two
quarters," and the coming exam­inations
were also factors in the
•dean's decision.
the right shoulder — any runner
finishing the race without a tag
wili^be disqualified.
Runners will be led by a car
Carrying Miss Auburn, Augusta
York, Birmingham. All partici­pants
must follow the car and
stay on the; street without cut­ting
corners.
The race was begun by Wilbur
Hutsell- in *1929, when the track
c&aeh. found himself short of
talent. In an effort to locate un­known
speedsters he originated
the idea of a race for all fresh­men.
ODK decided to sponsor the
event the next year and since that
time the "Rat Race" has become
an Auburn tradition.
Overton holds record
• Whitey Overton, Auburn's great
Olympic runner, .holds the rec­ord
for the course with a time of
13 minutes and 46 seconds. Bill
Ifarbrough, Decatur, won- the
event last year.
• The Cake Race course . begins
in front of the Field House, goes
past the Library and makes a left
turn on College Street. It con­tinues
past Toomer's corner to
the College service station, where
a right turn is made onto Glenn
Avenue. t\— ' , '
; The runners go down Glenn
to the second stop light then bear
right to Magnolia Avenue, where
another right turn is made up
the hill. Turning left into Gay
Street at the Methodist Church,
the course continues until aright
tiirn^ is made at .Samford Ave­nue.
' From there it winds past the
Kappa Alpha house, between the
Forestry.. Building- and the presi­dent's
mansion and oh down to
the Animal Husbandry Building.
The' runners then turn right down
Cary Street, going west of the
baseball field and into the gate of
the stadium to finish on the
track.

is tenth anniversary
It was 10 years ago in December
of 1945, that the music department
presented the first in this series
of "Messiah" performances. This
first performance took place^ in
Langdon Hall, and the chorus of
65 was made up largely of profes­sors
and their-wives. Soloists had
to be imported, since ihere were
no singers available in Auburn.
There was no orchestra, so the ac­companiment
was played on the
piano and the electric organ.
Since the construction of the '
Student Activities Building the
"Messiah" has been presented
there and each year has grown
into a larger production. The
31 choral selections of this ora­torio
will be sung by some 200
Auburn students with accom-painment
by the API Symphony
Orchestra.
During the decade of "Messiah"
performances here at Auburn more
than 15,000 persons have attended
and it is expected that approxi­mately
2,000 persons will attend
this tenth anniversary occasion on
December 7.
All girls will get late permission
for the performance. WALTER COLLINS
Pyburn, Childress
Named To MSEC
Grid Eleven By AP
Auburn's Jim Pyburn and Joe
Childress were picked on the 1954
Associated Press All-SEC team
Wednesday in a poll which honor­ed
only two repeaters from-the '53
mythical squad.
.Pyburn and LSU's giant tackle,
Sid .Fburnet, were, the only stars
to come back and daiiS a spot
on the first team. Pyburn polled
more votes than any other per­former
honored.
Alongside Childress, there are
two of the country's finest-runners
and a top-flight quarterback team­ed
up in the person of Tennessee's
Tom "The Bomb" Tracy, the Vol's
running demon, Mississfppi State's
Art Davis, the lad. who scored a
quartet of TD's against LSU, and
Kentucky's dextrous quarterback,
Bob Hardy.
The dynamic forward wall av­erages
202 pounds and a shade
over 6 feet per man, and has speed,
drive, and great ability to make
the quick charge on offense.
Paired off with Pyburn at the
other end is lanky Henry Hair of
Georgia Tech, and the other tackle
spot is filled by Ole Miss' Rex
Boggan, a Marine returnee.
' At the guards, Tech's Franklin
Brooks and Vanderbilt's Bobby
Goodall give the squad an excel­lent
blocking and sure-fire tackl­ing
duo, while at center Hal East-erwood
replaces Larry Morris after
the Tech star's two-year tenue at
the pivot. Easterwood, a Mississip­pi
State standout, was named
"Lineman of the Week" in the na­tion
after his performance against
Alabama.

API Lab Suffers
$4,000 Fire Damage
An early morning fire resulted
in $4,000 damage to an API vege­table
garden laboratory on the
Wire Road Friday, and a fireman
enroute to the fire from a stand­by-
basis was injured when his car
skidded and overturned.
Amos Hartzog, 979 Lakeview
Dr., was driving on W. Samford
from his home to fire, came tO:a
dead end street, ran into & yard
and turned over two and half
times, according to the police ac­cident
report. Damage to the car
was estimated at $700.
Hartzog was taken to a local
physician and treated for a cut
on his leg and injury to his
shoulder.
The fire alarm was received
about 3:30 a.m. Friday. The fire
did considerable damage to the
framing of the concrete block lab­oratory,
according to Sam Brew­ster,
API director of buildings and
grounds, who gave an estimate .of
the amount of damage. The walls
are still standing, but a great deal
of repair work will be necessary,
said Brewster.
He also said that a deep freeze

New 'Miss Auburn'
Has Beauty, Brains,
Leader On Campus
By a campus-wide election,
Mary Augusta York became
"Miss Auhurn." In her first
official .duty,, she presided
over the pep parade in Birm*
ingham1 prior to the Auburn-
Alabama game.
"I thought that it was wonder­ful
that Auburn students respond­ed
like they did in the parade.
They certainly outshone Alabama
students there as, well as on the
gridiron," she stated.
That "Miss Auburn" has had
an active part in campus affairs
is shown by the list of organi­zations
and activities in which
she has participated. She is a
member of the Phi Mu sorority,
reporter for Kappa Delta Pi, na­tional
education honorary, and
president of Sphinx.
In connection with her sorority-activities,
Augusta was president
of her pledge class, most outstand­ing
pledge, rush chairman, pledge
trainer, fraternity education chair­man,
and rush advisor.
In her sophomore year, she was
sophomore senator. She was re­cently
selected for "Who's Who in

It's Auburn vs Baylor In Gator Bowl
By Ed Williams
Plainsman Sports Writer
For the second year in suc­cession
the Gator Bowl'Com­m
i t t e e has chosen A u b u r n for
i t s annual post-season classic,
and once more a strong Texas
t e am has been picked to op­pose
the Plainsmen. This year's
opponent will be Baylor of the
Southwest Conference.
Last January 1 the Tigers fell
to Texas Tech's Red Raiders 35-
13, but this time things should be
different. Still Baylor is not an
outfit to be trifled - with. The
Bears completed the season with
a 7-3 over-all record and were
4-2 in conference play. They fin­ished
third in the SWC, but they
missed the championship by only
the narrowest of margins.
Waco boys fall
Arkansas took the boys from
Waco by a 21-20 score early in
October, but up until their last
game, they still had an outside
chance of tying the Porkers for
the'' crown. Ironically enough, it
was Rice that finally smashed the
Bears' championship hopes. The
Owls also beat Baylor in the final
game of the 1953 season to deny
them the title.
Baylor holds 'victories over'
Houston, Vahderbilt, Washing­ton,
Texas A&M, Texas, Texas
Christian University and South-
• ern Methodist University. Prob­ably
the most important of these
was 33-21 conquest of S.M.U.
The Mustangs seemed headed
for the Cotton Bowl after up­setting
Arkansas, but Baylor
stopped them cold in a wide
open thriller.
Coach Qeorge Sauer prefers the
split-T attack and has molded a
mighty football machine around
quarterbaik Billy Hooper's pass­ing
and halfbalk T. G. Dupre's
running. The Bears placed three
men on.the All Southwest Con-fei-
ence team.
faced common foe
Auburn and Baylor have faced
only one common foe — Miami.
In a night game in the Orange
Bowl, the- Hurricanes edged Bay­lor
19-13, while, as we all know,
the Tigers surprised Miami 14-13
in the daylight.
The Plainsmen should get a
little larger cash return out of
this year's Gator Bowl. The game
has been switched to December
31, so that there will be a better
chance of selling the TV and ra­dio
rights.
It also seems fairly certain that
the SEC will forego their 25 per
cent share of the proceeds. Last
year after the conference got
their cut, Auburn barely broke
even.
Social Activities Normal

By Doris Lessman C
Plainsman "Society Editor
Following the Thanksgiving flurry of football games

holidays, include group par­ties

A CAMPUS-TO-CAREER CASE HISTORY
W. D. Garland, E.E. '52, Univ. of
California, is working for the Pacific
Telephone Company. We thought
you'd be interested in what Don
told us about his first assignment.
(Reading time: 45 seconds)
Here Don Garland makes noise distribution measurements
with a Level Distribution Recorder
My job is to help solve problems
of noise and other interference on tele­phone
lines due to power interference.
Inductive co-ordination is the technical
term for the work.
"First thing the Chief Engineer ex­plained
to me was that 'all the answers
aren't in the book.' He was right. Most
of the problems have required a com­bination
of electrical engineering, a
knowledge of costs and generous
amount of ingenuity. / like it that way.
It's given me an immediate opportunity
to put into practice the theory I learned
at school.
"In addition to this on-the-job ex­perience,
I have attended several spe­cial
training courses conducted by the
company. Now I'm breaking in a new
man, just like when I started."

Don Garland's work is typical of many
engineering assignments in the Bell
Telephone Companies. T h e r e a r e simi­lar

Delta Zeta Sorority
Adopts Korean Boy
Yoo Jin, a 12 year-old Korean
boy, was recently adopted by Beta
Xi Chapter of Delta Zeta at API.
This adoption of Yoo Jin for one
year was made possible through
aid of the Foster Parent's Plan for
War Children.
Yoo Jin's mother died when he
was three years old. His father, a
sergeant major in the ROK army,
was one of the first to be killed
by the Communists. Yoo Jin wan­dered
about, starving and wretch­ed,
until an American GI picked
him up and. he went along with the
unit to Kong Nun.
Yoo Jin followed the American
unit until May 1953. He was ad­mitted
to an orphanage through
the interest of one of the American
GI's and has remained there ever
since.
Delta Zeta is helping Yoo Jin
with a monthly cash grant and
periodical relief issue. Yoo Jin is
devoting his time to music and his
ambition is to become a pianist
and composer.

IT'S A FACT! College smokers prefer Luckies to all other
brands—and by a wide margin—according to the latest,
greatest coast-to-coast college survey. The No. 1 reason:
Luckies taste better. They taste better, first of all, because
Lucky Strike means fine tobacco. Then, that tobacco is
toasted to taste better. "It's Toasted"—the famous Lucky
Strike process—tones up Luckies' light, good-tasting tobacco
to make it taste even better. Now for the Droodle above,
titled: Inept smoke ring blown by ept smoker. He's ept, of
course, because he smokes Luckies. Be ept yourself and enjoy
the better-tasting cigarette . . . Lucky Strike.

A'Real* Football Team LffftTMAN ON CAMPUS by Dick Biblcr
To say the very least, Auburn is proud
of the 1954 edition of its football team. We
feel that no team in the South can match,
the current team of Coach "Shug" Jordan.
We confess to a deep sense of disap­pointment
when our fine team was over­looked
for the Cotton Bowl; and we still
think that Cotton Bowl officials made a
bad mistake in taking Georgia Tech over
our Plainsmen. In this case their loss is
the Gator Bowl's gain.
But the disappointment has now .sub­sided,
and we look forward with much
anticipation the coming conflict with Bay­lor
in the Gator Bowl.
As Auburn journeys to Jacksonville
for the second straight year, many sports
scribes and coaches say that no team in
the entire South can field a first eleven
any stronger. Yet, the Golden Bears of the
Southwest Conference have different
ideas. They feel as though the 21-20 defeat
they suffered from Co.ttpn Bowl-bound
Arkansas was not an indication of their
team's strength. So you can count on a
whale of a game come December 31.
According to Associated Press results,
the Gator Bowl game is now listed as
the third strongest post - season encounter.
AP indicates that the Rose Bowl, with Ohio
State and Southern California, "and the
Sugar Bowl, pitting Ole Miss against Navy,
are the two strongest bowl games. The
Auburn - Baylor conflict is supposed to
be third.
Actually, The Plainsman can't see' that
the Rose Bowl can boast of any better
game than the Gator. Ohio State is ranked
No. 1 in the nation, with Southern Cal
given 17th spot. Our argument is that Au­burn
is 13th nationwide and Baylor is
18th, Common sense would lead one to
the decision that we have formed.
As the official season closed, eight Au­burn
seniors played their last regular
game. Such stars, as Jimmy Long, Dave
Middleton, Bobby Freeman, George At­kins,
Jack Locklear, Al Brame, Jim Hall,
and Ted Neura will be sorely missed in
next season's encounters.
A consolation in the departure of these
eight is the fact that they have played
on one of the finest Auburn teams in the
long history of the game here: Old-timers
have scratched their heads in amazement
at the feats of 4hese boys. Many of them
confess defeat when attempting to com­pare
them to stars "of the good ole days."
The Plainsman can think of no more fit­ting
way for these seniors to cap off their
college football days than with an impres­sive
victory over Baylor with the whole
country (via television) looking on.
On The Auburn Band
The Auburn band deserves tremendous
credit for its efforts during the entire
year, - and especially during the football
campaign.
Day after day band members practice,
knowing that very little reward will be
forthcoming. In many cases the only jus­tification
they receive is knowing that
they are a very important part of Auburn,
and that functions such as football games
would lose much appeal if the band w&s
absent. J
Bandmaster Herbert and his entire
band have done an excellent job in this
football season. They have presented half-time
shows that have done themselves and
their schqol credit. We are proud of their
showings. .
HUMPH ..
;; .We feel that too often the band is~^9jten
for granted and students don't appreciate
it as they should. Scholarship-wise the
band is completely left out. As far as this
paper knows Auburn's band doesn't offer
a single scholarship. Yet, they manage to
keep pace with bands in which many
scholarships are given and band members
paid.
The Plainsman knows there is enough
"loose money" in obscure places to offer
at least two band scholarships each year.
The Concessions Board, which handles
all profits the school receives from campus
vending machines, could establish a num­ber
of band scholarships. This board han-to
foster the Auburn spirit

dies a large amount of money, and we
can't think of any more worthwhile cause
than an additional incentive to the band.
This paper would oppose a move to
use any part of the student activity fee
for scholarships £o deserving high school
graduates. Responsible persons should
rally to the cause.
Where's The Trophy?
The winner of. the Auburn-Alabama
football game each year is permitted to
control the coveted Qmicron Delta Kappa
Trophy. Auburn grid elevens have justi­fied
our keeping the trophy only two times,
in, the past seven years, including the re­cent
victory.
Yet, DDK hasn't seen fit to get the
magic article. It still remains in the hands
of the losers.
It would seem to the casual observer if
you desire something very much and fi­nally
won it, you would hardly neglect
to go get it.
The DDK Trophy should be presented
to the winner of the game immediately
after the battle, not sometime during the
basketball season. Convenience is not a
factor. Responsible persons haven't seen
to it that the trophy was secured.
We haven't been able to get it often,
so when we do win, let's pick up the spoils,
huh!
Safety Month Continues
"No More Accidents—No More Injured
—None Killed" is the slogan for the Cam­pus
Drives Committee's safety month.
In this last issue of The Plainsman for
the quarter, we urge students to do their
utmost to make this slogan stick. We hate
to read of students being involved in
wrecks.. . » •
The Disciplinary Board has set a pre-cident
to dismiss any student from Auburn
who is involved in an accident while drink­ing.
Several students have already been
dismissed. Just drinking is bad enough,
but driving and drinking is inexcusable.
Our student body has been known for
some time as a traveling group. This, plus
an unavoidable trip home and to the Gator
Bowl, will make it even more possible
for students to be involved in wrecks.
Only by very careful and safe driving
can we hope to escape serious accidents.
Last year alone, 38,300 motor vehicle
accident deaths were recorded in the
United States. Many of these deaths oc­curred
during the Christmas holidays.
Some of them enroute to post-season bowl
games.
We hope that Auburn students won't' go
beserk under the wheel and drive care­lessly.
For only by driving with care can
we all hope to return to API.
* Just Ain't No Justice*
By Ronafd Owen
To coin a phrase, "There just
ain't no justice," especially as far
as Auburn's football team and
bowl games are concerned.
When the best team in the
Southeastern Conference doesn't
get a bid to one of the major
bowls the situation is approaching
the ridiculous. Maybe it's going
to take a few years for the bowl
officials to wise-up apd admit to
themselves,that Auburn is, a foot­ball
power. Maybe it's going to
•take an all«out. effort along lines
of public relations to impress these
people. (They appear to be suscep­tible
to such tactics.) At any rate,
just having the best, and flashiest,
team in, the conference isn't
enough.
Three early season losses -didn't
help Auburn's cause any when
final consideration was being giv­en.
However, in this year of upsets
the Plainsmen emerged with as
good a record as any SEC team
save Ole Miss.
True, Auburn lost to Georgia
Tech, 14-7—however, that was
earlier in the season. That was
also the Tigers last defeat. After
losing to Tech Auburn mowed
down six tough opponents in a
row.
The two most significant wins
were the 14-13 victory over pre­viously
unbeaten Miami and the
35-0 trouncing of league leading
Georgia. The finishing touches to
a fine season were added last Sat­urday
as Auburn ran wild, over the
Tide 28-0.
Clemson coach Frank Howard
said, after losing to the Tigers 27-
6, that Auburn was the best team
his men had played all season.
That included Maryland and South
Carolina, to mention a few. Red
Drew of Alabama, said essentially
the same thing last Saturday, his
list of opponents including Georgia
Tech and Miami.
Visiting football authorities com­pared
the fiery Plainsmen favorab­ly
with such teams as Ohio State,
Oklahoma and UCLA, the top
teams in the nation.
Statistics bear the critics out,
for Auburn took a lion's share of
the honors when final season fig­ures
were released. Quarterback
Bobby Freeman was first in total
offense, Joe Childress was first in
individual rushing and in scoring,
and Jim Pyburn was first in pass
receptions.
Sports writers of some state
papers suggested that maybe Au­burn
was too great for their own
good. Rumors have it that except
for the desention of the Arkansas
coach, the Tigers would have been
in the Cotton Bowl easily.
Oh, well, better years lie ahead.
Auburn is definitely on the way up
the ladder to football fame. But it's
sure is a shame to see this wonder­ful
array of talent shunted on
New Year's Day. A team like this
year's doesn't come every season
for Auburn.
Nope, there just ain't no justice.

Wisconsin Reader
Writes About Gretchen
Dear Editor:
I have been an avid reader of
The Plainsman for the past four
years and have at times have been
amused at the editorial page and,
likewise, disgusted; but never have
I been so sickened as I,was on
November 12 when Messrs. Owen
and Teem found it necessary to
write a cheap imitation of "Drag­net"
using the strangulation of
poor Gretchen as a theme. I am
not usually one to criticize the
"freedom of the press" but in this
instance I deem it necessary to call
to the attention of the two ex­amples
of manhood in question
that DEATH does not occur for
the amusement of humanity, es­pecially
when administered in
such an inhuman manner.
I sincerely believe that the so-called
"officer of the law" found
guilty of this act should be re­lieved
of his badge. There is no
excuse for the use of brutality
when it becomes necessary to an­nihilate
an animal; the Small Ani­mal
Clinic would administer a
painless anesthetic if called upon.
Too, may I remind the officer (and
I use the word loosely) that poor
Gretchen was not responsible for
being a "stray;" that was the fault
of the "human" population of Au­burn.
I am sure she would have
made an appreciative pet to any­one
doing the humane thing of
just inviting her.
Bouquets to the students who
were considerate enough to bring
food and kindness into the life of
the late Gretchen, and Brickbats
to the "cop" (thrown fast and
furiously) who found it sporting to
strangle one of man's best friends.
In closing may I say that, if the
0 backlog of amusing editorial .ma­terial
of Messrs. Teem and Owen
has been so depleted that they find
it necessary to use DEATH as a
subject, may I suggest that they"
relinquish their space in The
Plainsman to a more deserving
writer, or a page copied from some
current joke book.
Sincerely yours,
Nell C. Albert

Alumnus Writes Poem
Commemorating Victory
Dear Editor:
This poem was written by
Willis Merchant '24, 'after the
game Noyember 27. We think it's
good enough to be printed in
The Plainsman.
The twenty seventh of this
November
Is a day that Auburn will long
remember
For the mighty Tide — it marked
the day
When it slowed to a trickle then
faded away.
Cheerleader Replies
To Column Criticism
Dear Editor,
Last Wednesday an editorial
appeared in The Plainsman
which was entitled "Cheering
Section Impolite." In the article
it gave special attention to the
yell, "We've go Howard worried"
and the editorial implied this yell
was started by the cheerleaders.
This is not true.
This, particular yell was start­ed
in the stands and when sev­eral
thousand people start a yell
you can't stop them. This would
be hurting the spirit of the crowd
when we do lead a yell. Booing
can be controlled but the other is
hard to control. Besides this mi­nor
point that I have just men­tioned,
someone who was stand­ing
near Coach Howard (Clemson
Coach) said he took it with a
smile and said, "You're right,
they really have got me worried."
The thing that upset me most
in your editorial was your state­ment
that we were yelling, tt$-
drown out the other cheering see,-:,
tipn. I assure you that not ever
has that been the slightest reason
for our yelling. We yell because
we have something to yell for—
not to drown out anyone.
If you remember, almost every
time at the FSU ball game, their
band would play and never did
it enter my; mind or the mind of
any member of the cheerleader
squad that they were playing to
drown us out.
The best time for us to lead a
yell is during a time-out because
we can get the crowd's attention;,
therefore, we yell at the time we
* feel it is best. If "we have given
this impression to you, any mem­ber
of the Auburn Student Body
or Clemson's Student Body, we
sincerely apologize, for this was
not our intention.
During the football season the
cheerleaders meet every day at
4 p.m. at the stadium. We would
appreciate and would listen! with
utmost attention to any construc­tive
criticism or suggestions any­one
has.
Yours for a.GREATER Auburn,
Buddy Jacobs
Head Cheerleader
As the sun over Legion Field
slowly sank,
Jordan got "28" but Red Drew
a blank.
There was also a turning point
against 'Bama in this game.
The turning point, my boy, was
when the kick-off came.
It seemed strange for 'Bama,
usually in the driver's seat,
To be listed on the menu as just
plain "Tiger Meat".
You must admit that 'Bama really
tried,
But last Saturday, they just tried,
sighed, cried and died!!
Don't blame it on the coach nor
the team
For when Freeman and Company
got up steam
Something had to give — some­thing
had to fall.
We give 'Bama credit for showing
up at all!

Class of '24

Married students are often fac­ed
with gross financial difficul­ties.
Student wives (a singularly
noble breed of women) often take
it upon themselves to alleviate
some of the distress, and do so
through diverse means.
One may find student wives in
the roles of secretary, chairwom­an,
lady wrestler, fishwife, door-to-
door encyclopedia saleswomen,
stock car racer, rubber band in­spector,
BB-staoker, etcetera. But
my wife runs a clandestine "ad-vice-
to-the-lovelorn" service.
No doubt there are those among
you to whom this comes as ho
surprise, and ,to who invaluable"
advice has come when sorely need­ed.
One particularly poignant
epistle arrived last week — on
worthy of public attention. To
wit:
Dear Linda Neare,.
I am 10,-years old and my
mother tells me I am too young to
be in a family way and I told her
I didn't know what she meant but
the doctor at Lee County Hospital
said the same thing. Jimmy is 12,
and he says I am not in a family
way, but I don't trust him because
he is responsible and he won't
marry me but that isn't what I
wanted to tell you about.
What really hacks me off is my
mother says I ,am too young to
use lipstick and wear hose and
how am I going to get anybody to
dance with me at the Valentine
party if I don't wear lipstick and
hose and my mother won't let me
dance anyway?
Hacked. Off
Dear Hacked Off,
Yours is a problem which will
require understanding on the part
of your mother, your father, your
step-neighbor-i*£law, Eldred, me,
your teacher, yourself, your cook,
the boys at the Valentine party,
and Hazel Bishop. The only advice
I can offer is to keep your chip up,
keep smiling, and keep your dues
to the Battle Buzzard Lonely
Hearts Club paid up.
Yours in the bond,
L. N.
It is heartening to note that
new members are drifting to the
Battle Buzzard Lonely Hearts
Club, and already the muster sheet
includes such celebrities as Sally
Paddicker, discoverer of excess
gastric acidity and other pheno­mena,
,and Fred /the now-famous
crwthist), and me.

A survey taken at Auburn re­cently,
shows that there are defi­nitely
two different sexes present
on the campus. According to
Doctor Kinsey, Ph.D„ Indiana, and
Mother Nature, Lu,V., Figleaf U.,
these species occasionally show a
slight attraction for one another.
Lately, support of this theory has
been evident on the Auburn cam-
\ pus. Careful thought will reveal
that this presents a problem.
Herebefore The Plainsman's
policay has been rather lax in aid­ing
the emotional stresses and
strains encountered by young lovr
ers. Therefore, we feel rthat it is
our duty to assist these perturbed
young people in • solving their
problems by offering them sound
advice on problems of a romantical
nature.
We believe that we are qualified
to offer, such advice because of
years of experience in walking in­to
dark rooms at fraternity houses
without knocking, and four years
of listening to the platter parade.
advice from '(overs'
So, if your romance is on the
rocks, if the sweet young thing
spits in your eye, if your one-and-only
stands you up for the big
formal -of the year, don't douse
your room-mate with showers of
brime or turn to studying to re­lieve
your heartache, instead send
your problem to The plainsman
Lonely Hearts Editors, Teem and
Robinson (We feel we are quali­fied
because we have lonely
hearts).
You need our aid if your prob­lems
run something like these:
Dear Carmer and Bill,
I have a problem. I am editor of
the most obscure publication on
campus. I can't reveal the name,
but it rhymes with Beethoven's
Sonata. Although this alone is
quite a problem, my complaint to­day
concerns girls.
In my work I am surrounded
by dozens of beautiful young co­eds.
Naturally they are awe-stricken
by my greek-god feature?
and my bubbling personality.
At times I find this flattering,
especially in my private office, but
as a rule it is a. severe handicap
in trying to meet my inevitable
deadline. ^
As my female staff is always
ip a continual strife as to who
. will escore me home, wJ^s^JLittle
: work there; is to dp-ionthe publi­cation
goes undone. I am con­scientious,
and would like to per­form
my duties unmolested by
these fighting females.
Girls call me all during the day
and night, clamoring for my com­pany
and demanding dates. On
several occasions I have been am­bushed
during innocent strolls
across the campus. Just the other
day a curvacious coed dropped
from a tree onto my back, scream­ing
for an autograph or something.
But, I am a busy man, and have
no time for these gregarious fe­males.
I am paid a fabulous salary and
am furnished with assistants, auto­mobiles,
free copies of The Plains­man
and otherwise live a normal
life. In spite of my handsome
frame, my desire to edit a pass­able
publication is the supreme in­terest
in my life.
How can I rid myself of these
persistent females?
Signed,
Frustrated Editor
Dear -Frustrated Editor,
At a time like this it ' takes
courage. Try to maintain a cool,
level head in your hour of dis­tress.
You must act like a man in
your surroundings. Attempt to
suppress your pronounced inferior­ity
complex and try to see yourself
as others see you.
However, please realize the
impact your life has on the Au­burn
female population. Be calm
and resourceful, but by all means
be ambidextrous. Try to do both
jobs at once. If this doesn't work,
we would be glad to relieve some
of the tension around you.
Dear Lovelorn Editors,
I am young and handsome; this
is not my problem. My father is a
multi-millionaire, and I, myself,
am independently wealthy; this is
not my problem. I- have a different
colored Cadillac convertible for
every day in the week; this it not
my problem.
Since starting to school at Au­burn,
I have made a straight "A"
average; this is not my problem.
Coeds flock around me as if I
played the piano; this is not my
problem.
Recently I met the cutest little
freshman on the campus and she
fell madly in love with me; this
is not my'problem. I have a date
with her for the biggest party of
the year tomorrow night; this is
not my problem.
Today I received a shipment of
twenty custom-made charcoal-grey
suits from my tailor in New
York; this is not my problem. Ed­itors,
I just don't know whether
to wear pink or helio with char­coal
tomorrow night; this is my
problem.
Signed,
Worried
Dear Worried,
Our sympathy, indeed, is strong­est
to the underpriviliged. In your
•case may we suggest that your
conscience be your guide. Pink
was originated by flying elephants
and has been a fad ever since. T
Helio, equally as alluring, was
first known to be, used on South
Africa fly swatters so your choice,
either way. will be a good jpne.
We strongly advise the heads and
tails method of solving this tricky
problem. /'
This space provided above was
vastly insufficient to accomodate
the terrific influx of letters we
received, but from time to time we
shall endeavor to reprint those we
feel most deserving of our esteem­ed
advice.
If you have an emotional prob­lem,
send it to us; we are very
emotional.

Union Hobby Shop Awaits Students' daflgS&g
Review Tuesday
Another Auburn Union Buijding facility, a hobby shop,
is now open, according to Eugene pekich, assistant manager
of the building.
The shop is located on the ground floor of the building in
Room 103. It is equipped with work Jtables, two fully equipped
tool boxes, a wood lathe, a jig-saw,
an angle saw, and complete sets of
carpenters, wood working, and
leather tools.
The room will remain locked
and students wishing to use it may
get keys from the main desk. It
will be open the same hours»as the
Union Building. ,
It is hoped that eventually some
professors or experienced persons
will offer their services as instruc­tors,
said Dekich. Anyone wishing
to do so may contact Mrs. Betty
Hawthorne in Room 310, Union
Building.
open for frats
Dekich said that he hoped the
hobby shop would be used by
organizations to prepare dance
decorations, in addition to being
used to make any type furniture.
He suggested that 25 cents might
be saved by making fraternity
paddles here.
Leather materials will be stock­ed
by the College Supply Store in
connection with the hobby shop.
Inexperienced persons are urged
to use the utmost caution in using
the tools. Plans for projects, and
instructions on "how to" may be
acquired from the library.
"The students may leave their
projects in the hobby shop over­night,
but we do not assume re­sponsibility
for them. We feel
confident, however, that no one
will bother them," stated Dekich.

During the time that a new

At the first of the quarter, the
Glom staff had only to shout "help
wanted" to receive what has been
termed a "stupendous turnout."
An announcement was run in The
Plainsman of the first staff meet­ing.
"What started out to be a
quiet organized meeting turned in­to
a riot as 146 girls and 23 boys
showed up to do their part," stated
John.
Surrounded by a bevy of fem­inine
typists and filing clerks, Bill
started his class section and met
the January 1 dealine, 50 days
early.
In reorganization, John had
to meet and conquer the prob­lem
of stale write-ups of the
organizations. He has tried to
make this large amount of copy
descriptive, yet fresh and read­able.
The emphasis has been
placed on current happenings.

Plainsman Cagers Set for Opener With Strong Hilltoppers
By Bill Hutto
Plainsman Sports Editor
A new, fresh sport takes the spotlight on the Plains
tomorrow night.
Basketball comes in with a bang, and forces "King Foot­ball"
to take a back seat as Coach Joel Eaves shows off his
brand new 1954-1955 Auburn cagers to. the Birmingham-
Southern Hilltoppers and to the fans in the Auburn Sports
Arena. ,
Following the varsity tilt, the
Plainsman freshmen entertain
Southern-Union, a scrappy outfit
from Wadley.
The Hilltoppers arc the first
team to face the Tigers as they
launch a heavy holiday schedule
that carries them into battle
against Jacksonville State^Teach-ers
College on December 11, and
then on to Montgomery for the

. Tigers Get Second Straight Foe
From Lone Star State In Gator Bowl
Get those Baylor Bears! That was t h e c r y echoed around
this bustling town Tuesday afternoon when word was con­firmed
that the Gator Bowl committee had p a i r e d t h e P l a i n s ­men
with a power from the Lone Star State for the second
straight y e a r/
The players, the coaches, and everyone in the Village were
pleased with the committee's action. Members of the squad swarmed
into the Field House when they got whiff of the big news.
The majority of the boys knew nothing
about Baylor except that they have a 7-3
record, (the same as the Tigers') that
they tied with Rice for third place in the
Southwest Conference race, and that in
final Associated Press poll they finished
18th, five notches below the War Eagles.
"Let's go and find out something about
these Texans," one said. "I want to. know
what we're up against."
Athletic Director Jeff Beard and
Publicist Bill Beckwith spent most of
their time Sunday, Monday and Tues­day
with a phone receiver on their ear
as did Coach Shug Jordan. This was a
time-involving negotiation, and numerous phone calls were included
In the transaction.
T— Coached By Ex-Navy Mentor
The Golden Bears are masterminded by a 1934 Nebraska grad­uate,
George Sauer, who came to the Waco, Texas, institution after
a tenure at Navy, Kansas, and New Hampshire.
The last Baylor aggregation he led into a post-season classic
was his powerful 1951 squad which fell to Georgia Tech in Miami's
Orange Bowl 17-14 on New Year's I\aj^5,2.. If., you recall correctly,
thai was the year Tech quarterback -Pepper Rodgers lofted a field
goal far and true in the wanilp£secpnds ..to submerge this. Larry
Isbell-inspired Baylor team.
The spearhead of this 1954 Golden Bear team has been for the
most part a quarterback named Billy Hooper. Against Texas, this
scampering young Texan scored both of the TD's as the "Big Green"
chalked up a 13-7 triumph in Wa»o. .
The theme seems to be "As Hooper's passing arm goes, so goes
Baylor." Last week in their 20-14 loss to powerful Rice, the Owls
bottled up Hooper's passing game and, it turned out to be what the
doctor ordered for Coach Jess Neely's crew.
Other moving forces in the Bear's thunderous split-T attack
have been Halfback L. G. Dupre, and Del Shofner, a fiercely com­petitive
sophomore who was instrumental in the booming 33-21 win
over Southern Methodist. This Baylor victory killed the Methodists'
chances of parsing Arkansas in the conference title race.
— Game Moved Up To 31st
With the game being pushed up to December 31 this year
instead of New Year's Day, and with nation-wide video coverage
pending the Tiger-Golden Bear clash should give this republic's
grid fans a football game they won't forget for quite a while.
We know what our Plainsmen can do on a football field. We
saw them streak through their last six games without a blemish,
and without a sign of slowing up.
The' line had no peer anywhere, and the backfield was regarded
by many as being the best in the long history of the Tigers.
Certainly, last week's adjective-attracting win over Alabama
stands as the greatest one accomplishment turned in by Shug since
he took the reigns in 1951. It can be said without a single eyelash-batting
that it was one of the best ever for Bobby Freeman, Fob
James, and Joe Childress.
Jim Pyburn was busy all afternoon making life miserable for
Bobby Luna and the other Tide backs. On two straight plays Luna
rambled over into Big Jim's (no kin to Mrs. Folsom's boy of Cull­man,
fame) territory, and found himself in considerable trouble.
The first time, he was thrown for a 3-yard loss, and the second time
for an 11-yard deficit. How anybody can leave this 185-pound pack­age
of dynamite off their All-America team is beyond the reason­ing
of the thousands of loyal Alabamians whd have watched him
play.
—Tigers Give SEC Three Leaders
Pyburn, Childress, and Freeman were the conference leaders
off this great Auburn team. The glue-fingered Pyburn paced the
SEC in pass-receiving with 28 catches good for 460 yards (a new
school record) and four touchdowns. The Jolter led conference
rushers as he lugged the leather for 836 yards on 128 tries; an aver­age
of 5.6 yards a carry. .
Freeman, the boy with ah indescribable will to win, became
the third player in Auburn history to surpass the 1000-yard total
offense mark as he ran and threw for 1132'yards; tops for the
"Dixie Dozen."
Admittedly, this Tiger eleven is one of the very best in the na­tion,
and on thesq pages of THE PLAINSMAN we'd like to extend
our best wishes on behalf of the student body and people of the
state, to Coach Ralph Jordan, the members of his staff, and to the
entire team in their holiday venture in Jacksonville.
— Eaves Unveils Cagers Tomorrow
Coach Joel Eaves and his Plainsman basketeers have their
"coming out" party tomorrow night in the Sports Arena, and it
looks from here like the team has a good spirit as they launch,
their campaign to fill the big gaps left by the graduation of the
backbone of the 1953-1954 crew, Bob Miller, Jack Turner, Bill
Fickling, and John Cochran. ,
These boys comprised four of the five starting berths on last
year's team, and their loss will be deeply felt. Coach Eaves says;
that the scrappy bunch of boys out this year are dead set on plug­ging
up those holes though, and they've shown a great desire to do so.
Conference hopes right now are not too bright, but the likes
of Bill Kirkpatrick, Jim O'Donnell, Jim Diamond, Gordon Mum-
•mert, and Henry Sturkie are ready to prove otherwise. We'll take
the Tigers in their Birmingham-Southern tilt tomorrow.
17 and 18. In the first round in
this Coliseum attraction, they
tangle with the Generals of Wash­ington
and Lee, while Tennessee
and Miami square off.
From the" Capital City the
Tigers return to the Loveliest
Village January 5, for a clash
with Howard in the Sports
Arena.
Coach Eaves indicated early this
week "Our boys have improved a
great deal since we first started
readying ourselves for the game
with Southern, but the real stand­outs
. have been Forwards Jim
O'Donnell, Jim Diamond, and
Guard Bill Kirkpatrick. These
boys have made great strides to­ward
obtaining the polish they'll
need in order to spearhead a win­ning
attack." Eaves also comment­ed
that the squad's lack of height
will be a tremendous handicap in
the building of an aggressive cage
unit.
has strong team
Southern has a strong team with
all but one of its regulars from
last season returning to action.
The Tiger captains, Kirkpatrick,
the spunky ball-handling wizard
from Surgoinsville, Tenn., and
O'Donnell, the ex-Marine, with
the quick reflexes and the drive
and agressiveness of a battle-test­ed
veteran, give the Plainsmen the
experience so necessary in anchor­ing
the up-and-coming' cagers
around. O'Donnell is from Hack-ensack,
N. J.
Sophomore Guard Henry Stur­kie,
the fast-breaking Gadsden
product, is also a tested perform­er
in Eaves' machine. His stellar
freshman season last year gave
Tiger supporters plenty to Chirp
about.

At center, veteran'Gordon Mum-ment,

for the starting berth.
Against the Hilltoppers, a lot
will be heard from little Byrd
Whigham also. A deadly set-shot
exponent, this Louisville native
played his first year last season,
and was also a big gun in the
potent attack of Dick McGowen's
Tiger baseball squad. Standing
only 5'7" above the floor, Whig-ham
is as keen a competitor as
the Plains people have seen in
quite some time.

Tigers Finish 7-3 Season
By Trouncing Bama 28-0
By Bill Hutto
Plainsman Sports Editor
Employing a pulverizing ground attack that floored a
game Crimson Tide from Alabama, Auburn's Freeman-ted
Plainsmen downed the Capstoners 28-0 Saturday on the
muddy turf of Birmingham's Legion Field.
With quarterback Bobby Freeman engineering his great-test
game and running the option
Ivith almost evil deftness, the Tig­ers
turned loose all their jguns in
registering their sixth conseoutive
win. . .
Freeman dealth off the top, mid­dle,
and bottom of the deck as he
called, on Hoppy Middleton, Fob
James, and Joe Childress to per­form
the wrecking duties for Shug
Jordan in the amiable mentor's
finest hour.
no more scoring
The Tigers' passing attack great­ly
contributed to the breaking of
the Elephant's back with All-
America End Jim Pyburn, Fob
James, and Jim Hall all collaring
long passes for gains which set up
the Tiger marches.
The Plainsmen were brilliantly
guided in their attack by a peer­less
Freeman, who was closing out
his colorful Tiger career in spec­tacular
style. He personally ac­counted
for three of the four six-pointers,
and in general experienc­ed
his most action-packed day
since he began putting on Tiger
pads back in 1951.
With 12 seconds remaining in
the initial quarter, the 195-
pound Decatur boy rammed over
from the one with the first Au­burn
score. The play was the

DECEMBER AND MAY: ACT II
Synopsis of Act I : A middle-aged English Professor named Phipps ,
has fallen desperately in love with a rosy-kneed coed named Jlc-
Fetridge. Phipps doesn't know how to go about courting Miss
McFetridge, for, after all, he is a professor in the autumn of his
life, and she is a coed with rosy knees. Professor Twonkey, who
shares an office with Phipps, proposes the following plan: Phipps
will ask Miss McFetridge to come to his office for a conference late
in the afternoon. He will be urbane and charming and make fright­fully
witty remarks about English lit, and Miss McFetridge will
laugh and laugh. After an hour of this high-type hilarity, Phipps
will look at his watch, exclaim at the lateness of the hour, and insist
on driving Miss McFetridge home. On the way home, he will pass a
theatre that shows French movies. They'll see the movie, then have
an exquisite French dinner, and Miss McFetridge will be so enchanted
that she cannot but yield to his suit.. \
So at the beginning of Act II, we find Phipps in his office awaiting
the arrival of the poor young innocent. His hair is brushed; hip
nails are clean; he has new leather patches on his elbows. There is
a knock on the door. He opens it and admits a gorgeous creature with
blue eyes and pink kneecaps.
PHIPPS: Ah, Miss McFetridge. Come m, my dear. Won't you sit
down? Cigarette?
Miss McF: Ooh, Philip Morris! I think they're marvy, don't you?
PHIPPS : I do indeed.
Miss McF: Hey, prof, would you mind opening a fresh pack? |
PHIPPS: But I just opened this one a little while ago. It's perfectly
fresh. A
Miss McF: I know, prof, but I like to hear the snap when the
pack opens. |
PHIPPS: Very well, my dear. ,„,.,. ,, • , ,.
(He opens a fresh snap-open pack of Philip Moms. Miss
McFetridge claps her hands delightedly when she hears the
snap.)
Miss McF: Hey, that fractures me! Man, I flip when I hear that
crazy snap! Do another one.
PHIPPS: All right . .
(He snaps open another pack of Philip Moi~ris)
Miss McF: (Ecstatically) Isn't that the living, breathing end? Do
tovo at once.
PHIPPS : Well, if you insist. . \
(He does two at once)
Miss McF: More! More!
PHIPPS : I'm afraid that's all I have.
Miss McF: Oh . . . Well, what's up, prof? What did you want to
see me about?
PHIPPS: Oh, nothing in particular. Just wanted to have a little
chat, find out how you're, enjoying the Shakespeare lectures. §
Miss McF: I don't know, prof. By me Shakespeare is strictly;.-a
square.
PHIPPS: Indeed? Well, I must say I find your attitude refreshing.
One is so inclined toward slavish admiration when it comes to the
Bard. People forget that in many quarters Shakespeare is regarded •
quite critically. Take, for example, the opinion of Shaw.
MISS McF: Artie?
PHIPPS: George Bernard...You know, of course, his famous words.
MISS McF: I sure don't, dad.
PHIPPS : Shaw said he would like to dig up Shakespeare and throw
stones at him..
MISS MCF: Did he dig him?
PHIPPS: No, I don't believe so.
Miss MCF : I don't dig him either.
PHIPPS: (Looking at watch) Good heavens, I had no idea it was
20 late. Come, my dear, I'll drive you home.
MISS MCF: NO, thanks. I always walk home. It's good for the
circulation in your legs. I got the best circulation in my legs of the
whole sophomore class. Ever notice how rosy my knees are?
PHIPPS : As a matter of fact, yes . . . Look, you sure you don't want
a ride home? There's an excellent French movie on the way.
MISS MCF: Not me, dad. I hate French pictures. The sub-titles
always, disappear before I can read 'em. But if you want to go to the
movies, there's a new Tony Curtis picture downtown — a real gut-buster.
Tony plays this beggar, see, but he's really a prince only he
doesn't know it on account of his sneaky uncle who switched babies
when Tony got born. Then Tony finds this magic lamp, see, and he
gets into the palace where he meets this crazy girl, only she's
engaged to the fake prince, but then they have this mad sword fight,
and Tony licks about a million guys, and then he finds out he's the
prince and it's real crazy. Wanna go? I've only seen it three or
lour times.
PHIPPS: As a matter of fact, I just remembered a previous en­gagement.
Sorry.
MISS M C F : T,hat's all right. Thanks for the Philip Morris. 'Bye.
(Exit Miss McFetridge. For a moment Phipps sits in stunned :
silence, mopping his brow. Then a smile appears on his face.
He is a happy man again—out of love. Contentedly he lights
up a Philip Morris.)

Sports Chatter

This is toy final story for The Plainsman; barring floods,
earthquakes, and revolutions, I'll be off for Pensacola next
month.
I'm leaving just as Auburn approaches the biggest in­tramural

100 teams are expected to partici­pate
in the inaugural season of
1 the new and expanded intramural
basketball program.
Independent entries are already

more are coming in every day.
Coach Evans would like to have
all independent entries by Decem­ber

start as quick as possible after
Christmas. Magnolia Hall and

Basketball is not the only item
on the winter quarter agenda.
Bowling, volley ball, and ping pong
are scheduled for the fraternity
leagues, and ping-pong will also
be on the Church league menu.
Independent bowling is scheduled
for the spring quarter.
The 1954 intramural football
season, while short on games, was
long on action. The teams that took
home the trophies earned that
right the hard way.
The Buckshots simply over-

TALKING OVER GRIDIRON experiences they've had during the
past four years on the Plains are three of the Tigers' seniors, Dave
Middleton, Jack Locklear, and Bobby Freeman. This activity took
place in the joyful Legion Field dressing room after the Plainsmen
had finished their 28-0 rout of Alabama. All these lads had ex­ceptional
days against the Tide. ' ' ""*'
Player Of The Week
Bobby Freeman
The subdued Red Elephants of Alabama gave out first-hand
notices Saturday night that Bobby Freeman,is the most quarter-ggggss
back they've encountered in
quite some time.
Playing his final regular
season game in Tiger togs, #
the Decatur boy, who likes
to win, all but junked the
Tide's hopes by himself. He
lugged the leather 13 times
for 96 ground, yards, and hit
Plainsman receivers f i ve
times on seven passes for 64
yards. He entered the Tide
end zone three times, once
on a sneak from the one,
another on a 41-yard jaunt
around right end, and a third
on an off-tackle run from the
three.
Never before have the
supporters of Auburn foot­ball
seen "The Goose" play
such inspired ball. When the
Bobby Freeman Legion Field clock ran out
and registered the final story—28-0, the statistics told the 1954
Freeman story. /
' Bobby's name was topmost in the total offense department
in the SEC with a massive 1,132-yard production for the season.
Possibly the aggressive field general's best run against Bama
Saturday failed to net him and the Plainsmen a TD. This of­fensive
gem occured after he had hit Fob James with an aerial
that spotted the pigskin on the Tide 25. »
"Goose" then took the snap from center, went back to seek
a receiver, couldn't find a soul in the clear, and then began to
sift through would-be Bama tacklers like sand through screen
wire. When he was finally pulled earthward he was clutching
the ball on Alabama two-yard stripe as the clock ran out on the
third period. It took Joe Childress but one thrust to add a half
dozen Plainsman points to the cause.

In Church League bowling it

Former Auburn Star
Playing Service Ball
At Boiling AF Base
Dudley Spence, Auburn's punt­ing
wizard of two years ago, is
now playing his football for
Boiling Air Force Base in Wash­ington,
and according to athletic
officials at the base, he is seeing
extensive duty in the Generals'
backfield.
Playing on a star-studded
pound class, and Al Myers, 177-
pound class.
Coach Umbach also has George
Hammond, Max Rosenberg, and
Vic Maldonado standing by for
action.
This year's round-robin match
has one change over the 1953 bat­tle.
Emory University has been
replaced by Marshall. In the '53
affair, Auburn emerged victor­ious,
trouncing Davidson, 32-0;
Emory,. 36-0, and edging the
Keydets of V.M.I., 16-11.
7—TtiE PLAINSMAN FrL, Dec. 3,1954
team which includes former SEC
standout, Jimmy Lear, Ole Miss
stellar quarterback of 1952, and
many other college performers,
Spence has seen action as both
a field general and a punting
specialist.
The Generals ran through a
10-game schedule with only a
single tie marring a perfect rec­ord.
In 1952 on t h e Plains, "Deadly"
Dudley ably filled in at the quar­terback
slot when Vince Dooley
was removed from the Ole Miss
game with an injured knee. He
continued at the field general
post for the remainder of the
campaign, and led the confer­ence
in punting, and in passing
percentage.
Against Wofford that year the
McComb, Miss., boy tied an all-time
SEC passing mark when he
completed 11 consecutive tosses,
3 of which were good for touch­downs.

bought at the gate this year, it

0/e Miss Wins SEC Title
By Ed Williams
Plainsman Sports Writer
Last Saturday the SEC closed
out the 1954 season with six tra­ditional
games. Five of these tilts
turned out pretty mush as expect­ed,
and four of them figured in
various bowl pictures.
Vanderbilt was the most sur
prising team, and Tennessee was
the most surprised. The Commo­dores
dumped the Vols 26-0, as
Tom "the Bomb" Tracy proved to'
be a dud with a total of 11 yards

for the afternoon.
Miami smashed Florida's Cot­ton
Bowl hopes with a 14-0
triumph. It was the first vic-
. tory away from home for the
Hurricanes since 1950, which
happened to be the last time
that Miami won in Gainesville.
Tech looks bad
Georgia did everything to Geor­gia
Tech, but beat them. The Bull­dogs
held the Jackets to a total
of only 73 yards, and completely
bottled up Tech's much publicized
Jimmy Thompson. The "Bessemer
Bullet's" longest gain was 3 yards,
but the score was still 7-3.
Ole Miss rolled into the Sugar
Bowl on the strength of a 14-0
conquest of Mississippi State. Ac­cording
to reports, the Rebels were
assured of a bid if they were only
able to keep the score close, but
Vaught's men made sure of things
by scoring twice in three minutes.
Alabama suffered their worst
defeat of the year. Auburn rid­dled
the Tide defenses for 360
yards rushing and'66 passing.
The Tigers maae it look easy as
they swamped Drew's crew 28-0.
LSU edged Tulane 14-13 to
round out the week's slate of an­nual
blood-baths.
