Bowls

Fourteen assorted All-America players hitched on their shoulder-pads last week, joined teammates to give 200,000 spectators throughout the U. S. one last look at intercollegiate football.

Rose Bowl. In Pasadena, 85,000 including 2,000 sombreroed Texans, watched a favored Southern Methodist attack, led by an All-America mite, Bobby Wilson, falter before Stanford's rugged defense, finally fall 7-to-0. Outstanding star was none of the four All-America players, but Quarterback Bill Paulman who scored Stanford's touchdown in the first period, intercepted four passes, kept Southern Methodist at bay with booming punts.

Orange Bowl. In Miami, Florida's florid answer to the Rose Bowl drew only 12,000 who were astonished at Catholic University players' reluctance to pose with a reception committee of blondes, were further astonished when the same players scored three touchdowns to top Mississippi's fourth quarter rally, 20-to-19.

Sugar Bowl. In score and technique, Texas Christian v. Louisiana State University at New Orleans made 37,000 spectators think of a baseball game. All-America Sam Baugh, who pegs a football like a pitcher, stepped over the end zone while attempting a pass, automatically gave L. S. U. two points. A few minutes later, he directed an attack which brought his team to L. S. U.'s 26-yd. line. From there Tilly Manton arched a field goal to put Texas Christian's Horned Frogs one jump ahead, 3-to-2.

East v. West. In San Francisco's annual braggadocian gesture toward the Rose Bowl, East, with eight Midwesterners including five All-Americas on its starting lineup, smothered West, 19-to-3.
