If w
SECOND HALF OF SEASON
OETS UNDERWAY
'by The Associated Press I
College footibalill heads into1
the second half of its 1955 sch
cduie this weekend and most
conference championships and
the bilg New Year’s Day bowl
games are far from settled. But
ihe men are being separated
Irom the boys and a lot of light
is beginning to filter through
the shadows.
One of the major games Sat
urday involving conference ri
vals brings together Oklahoma
perennial chamip of the Big
Sevn, and Colorado; both are
undefeated. Oklahoma is favor
ad, bull if there is any Big Sev
en team with a chance to beat
them out of an Orange bowl as
signment, it’s Colorado.
Maryland, expected to repre
sent the Atlantic Coasi confer
@nce in the Oranlge bawl, may
have a scrap on its hands again
st once beaten Syracuse in an
other big battle oil the day.
Syracuse belittled Army las'i
week.
Michigan, the nation’s No. 1
team just ahead of Maryland,
has its eyes on the Pasadena
Hose tbowl. However, the Woi
yesrines have a bit of business,
this week with Minnesota in
the Big Ten conference scram
ble. !
Wisconsin, tied at the top of
the Big Ten heap with Michi
gan, must knock off Ohio S:ate
Saturday to remain in the run
rung,
Clemson got the weekend,
rolling yesterday with a 28-14]
Atlantic Coast conference deci-j
sion over South Carolina. The
victory |put the Tigers in a first
place tie with Maryland with
a 2-0 record.
There are five big games to
night, and one will be watched
with interest, although it has
no bearing on conference or
bowl bids. UCLA, a favorite
for the Pacific Coast confer
ence title and the Rose bowl
job if it can (get past Washing
ton later, goes outside the broth
• erhood to meet Iowa of the Big
Ten.
Washington, a winner over
Southern California, takes on
Stanford Saturday, and should
win without too much difficulty
Auiburn, winner over Geor
gia Tech and with the South
eastern conference and Sugar
bowl peeking over the far-off
horizon, picks on a patsy -
Furman.
The Soutnwesx cumw
championship may not be set
tled for another few Saturdays
with Baylor, Texas A&M and
Southern Methodist still in the
running. Baylor meets Texas
A&M tomorrow, however, and
the winner may wind up a fav
orite for the title.
:So much for the immediate
bowl prospects. Getting around
to the other four top attractions
tonight, Texas Christian and
Miami meet in one toughie,
while Denver plays Brigham
Younlg, unbeaten Boston Col
lege meets Marquette, and Okla
homa A&M tackles Detroit.
Perhaps the south’s (best Sat
urday igiame is Pitt versus Duke
the unbeaten Atlantic coast
conference team that edged
Ohio State a week ago.

FOOTBALL PICKS
by Will Grimsley
NEW YORK UP) If the scores
appear high and a little on the
dizzy side this week, they
match the picker. Pardon the
aspirin hangover from the rock
iest football session of the sea
son.
Our score was 27-15, a little
better than Notre Dame’s, but
it reduced the season’s mark
to 162-54 for .750.
Back on the beam:
Michigan 33, Minnesota 12:
The unbeaten Wolverines have
Rose Bowl fever. Minnesota,
with three defeats, lacks speed
of last year.
Notre Dame 28, Purdue 14:
It’s hard 'to raise a team after a;
setback such as the Irish took
last week but Notre D'ame does
n’t lose two in a row.
Rice 21, Texas 14: The Owls
bound back from loss to SMU;
Texas has lost four of five and
can’t get out of the habit.
Princeton 21. Cornell 20; The j
Tigers have lost their ace. Roy-;
ce Flippin, and the Big Red is !
without Billy DeGraKf. Prince
ton by an extra point. {
Texas A&M 28, Baylor 20;
Bear Bryant has his Aggies fit
and fighlty. This is a tough con
ference to fathom but the Ag
gies should win at home.
UCLA 20, Iowa 6: Despite a
loss to Maryland, the tJclans
still have one of the country’s
best teams.
Dulke 21, Pittsburgh 7: Pitt
has size and depth but Duke
has speed and imagination;
should win its fifth straight.
Navy 27, Penn 7: It’s a 14th
straight defeat for Penn, which
hasn’t won a game since i't up
set the Midshipmen 9-6 in 1953.
Army 38, Columbia 6: After
two straight setbacks, Army
gets a chance to collect itself.
Columbia has only a passer,
Claude Benham.
Southern California 19, Cali
ornia 6: Too big and too many.
Maryland 33, Syracuse 12: On
a dry field, Syracuse will find
Maryland a different team than
Army last week.
Oklahoma 21. Colorado 0: A
battle of unbeaten teams, but
the Sooners simply don’t lose
in their own lealgue.
I Wisconsin 31, Ohio State 14:
Figure the Badgers to reverse
last year’s score
Florida 20, Kentucky 14: The
Kentuckians slightly favored
but we like Florida’s chances
anyway.
Miami 28, Texas Christian zi:
TCU, upset by Texas A&M last
week, ha9 a strong cluib but
Miami should be tough under
lights in Miami.

DEPLORABLE SITUATION
FOUND IN ALASKA ~ l
won’t he worth, anything un
less the knowledge gained is
put into practice.”
He praised Dr. Lauren Don
aldson of the University of
Washington school of fisheries
and Clarence Pautzke of the
fish division of the Washing
ton State department of game I
for their “immeasurable help
in pointing out the course
which must he followed in sal
mon rehabilitation.”
He referred 'to their discus
sion of acquacu'lture, a method
of “fertilizing” streams with
chemicals to develop more
plankton, the food for small
fish.
Magnuson expressed hope
for early results from his tel
egram to secretary of state
Dulles urging the forthcoming
Geneva foreign ministers con
ference to consider Russian
participation in any re-evalu
ation of the North Pacific
fisheries pact.
“This step must he taken if
the salmon rehabilitation and
catch problem is to be consid
ered as a unit,” he said.
“Tied into the North Pacif
ic fisheries situation,” he con
tinued, “is the Ifate of the king
craib, a thriving but threaten
ed industry unless the nations
concerned can take concerted
action soon.”
Civil Aeronautics board
handling of the Pacific North
ern Airlines case also deserves
being looked into, the senator
stated.
“The air line received only
a 3-year extension from the
CAB. Even though the presi
dent extended this to five
years there is every indication
that congress should step in to
insure a permanent certifica
tion for the line in view of
the service rendered faithful
ly for such a long period of
time.”
Magnuson will remain here
the rest of this week and next
before igoinig to San Francisco
to resume committee hearings.
During yesterday’s sessions,
two Seattle transportation ex
perts said that aid was need
ed to straighten out what they
described as the territory’s
tangled freight rate schedules.
Fred Tolin, a freight traffic
consultant, and William P.
Stanley, district manager of
the Northwest Freight Manage
ment company, both urged
that; the interstate commerce
commission broaden its author
fity over Alaska shipping. j
The federal maritime board
has jurisdiction over shipping
from west coast United States
ports to Alaska ports. j
Carriers, inidlluding truckers
and the Alaska railroad, which
carry goods inland from Alas
ka ports, do not come under
any adequate form of tariff
regulation, Tolan and Stanley
said.
Tolan asked that the I. C. C.
take jurisdiction over both
sea and land phases of Alaska
shipments.
Lack Of one authority opens
the way for “arbitrary or ca
pricious rate making,” often
without proper notice, he said
I Both Stanley and To'Iian said
the instability of Alaska
freight rates was unfair to ship
pers and worked a hardship
on (persons at tooth ends ol the
shipping program.
Alaska Delegate Barfllett,
who has sat with the subcom
mittee in its Seattle and Alas
ka hearings, said rail and
truck spokesmen have tolld
him they (would favor stabilis
ing control by the ICC.
W. B. (Doc) Heil, vice .pres
ident of the Alaska Merchants
Line, tdld the committee his
company was preparing an ap
plication to the maritime ad
ministration Ifor construction
of two roll-on-roll-off ships
•for the southeastern Alaska
trade.
Heil said the ships would be
built in the Puget Sound area.
They will toe shallow draft, a
toout 23'0 feet lonig and capable
of carrying about 2,000 tons.
Weeky sailings are planned.
“The need in southeastern
Alaska is frequent service, not
extra large tonnage,” Heil said
Heil said he did not know
whether the pOlan could quali
fy for government mortgage in
surance of 87V£ per cent, ils
the program now stands, only
ships larger than those contem
plated by Alaska Merchants
are covered.
