Army wilt defend
Alaska against
ground attack
ANCHORAGE </P) The de
fense department has plans to
defend Alaska against a possi
ble overland attack, army sec
retary Wiliber Brucker and a
deputy chief of staff said here
last night. 1
Brucker and Lt. Gen. Clyde
D. Eddleman, depujty chief of
itafif for plans, discussed the
question at a news conference
Eddleman told newsmen
that “of course” there was a
possibility of an overland at
tack on Alaska, but said the
defense department has plans
to meet such contingencies.
Brucker termed it a difficult
question as it involves nation
al security. He said he could
only concede there are plans
in the event of such an at
The army secretary said op
erations in Alaska — which he
described as very important
to both defense of Alaska and
*he United States — are being
watbched closely in Washing
ton (because of the “proximity
o£ the U. S. to other countries,
some not too friendly. This
keen interest is now and in the
future.,,
(Bnuidker is on an inspection
tour of military (bases in Alas
ka, Japan, Korea and the Phil
ippines to acquaint himself
with military setups. He was
to leave today for Ladd and
Eielson air force (bases near
Fairbanks, and Ft. Greely at
Kodiak to inspect: facilities.
Convention
senate had saved the territo
| ry’s citizen a good deal of
! misery.
While delegate Jack Hinck
el of Kodiak commented that
a unicameral set-up would
“give us the best representa
tion” throughout the territory
Other speakers disagreed.
Delegate Ralph Rivers of
Fairbanks drew a parallel
with the federal government
where states are eqully repre
sented (by two senators while
the house of represestatives is
elected according to popula
tion. He, said the bicameral
system would safeguard the
lesser populated areas with a
senator.
Juneau delegate Dora.Sween
ey warned of anot her problem
that might confront the fram
ers of Alaska’s constitution.
She said the voters would have
to decide on a unicameral leg
islature and added, “and I’m
not sure nhat it would pass.”
She asserted that “we need
a constitution that will be
easily passed.”
Sports Trail
the fans a chance to study the
comparative scores, a yard
stick that is invariaibly accur
ate as it always gives the same
answer — utter confusion.
Here are the howl opponents
and itheir records against com
mon opponents:
ORANGE BOWL
(Maryland vs. Oklahoma)
Maryland 13, Missouri 12;
Oklahoma 20, Missouri 0.
Maryland 25, North Carolina
7; Oklahoma 13, North Carol
ina 6.
ROSE BOWL
(Michigan State vs. UCLA)
Michigan State 38, Stanford
14; UCLA 21. Stanford 13.
COTTON BOWL
(Texas Christian vs. Mississ
ippi)
TOU 26, Arkansas 0; Mississ
ippi 17, Arkansas 7.
SUGAR POWL
(Pittsburgh vs. Georgia Tech)
Pittsburgh 26. Duke 7; Geo
rgia Tech 27, Duke 0.
Pittsburgh 7, Miami, Fla. 21;
Georgia Tech 14, Miami 6.
GATOR BOWL
(Auburn vs. Vanderbilt)
Auburn 15, Chattanooga 6:
Vanderbilt 12, Chattanooga 0.
Auburn 13, Florida 0; Van
derbilt 21, Florida 6.
Auburn 14, Kentucky 14;
Vanderbilt 34, Kentucky 0.
Auburn 13. Tulane 27; Van
derbilt 20, Tulane 7.
Auburn 26, Alabama 0; Van
derbilt 21. Alabama 6.
Auburn 16, Georgia 13; Van
derbilt 13, Georgia 14.
* It is easy to check on the
relative strenlgth of bowl rivals
by this comparative score sys
tem. For instance, Auburn lost
to Tu'lane by 14 points, while
Vandy beat the same team by
113 points, thus making Vandy
27 points better than Auburn.
Auburn beat Georgia by three
points, and Vanderbilt lost to
Georgia by one point, thus mak
ing Auburn four points better
than Vandy. Simple, isn’t it?
Just to add to (the (general
confusion, it might foe pointed
out that Oklahoma, with 365,
has scored more points than
any other bowl team, and that
Georgia Tech, with only 46
points scored aigainst it. has the
best defensive record.
Pittsburgh has the worst of
fensive and defensive record.
Tihe Panthers have scored only
181 and have had 115 points
scored against them. i
Of course, the quality of the;
apposition is not ta'ken into con
sideration, or how much the
first strings played in various
games, or the condition of the
field. Just minor factors, na
turally.
Oddly enough, disregarding
the above factors and assuming
that all the rivals played teams
of equal strength on bright,
sunny days on nice dry fields
they .would seem to be well
matched offensively except in
the case of Maryland and Okla
homa. Maryland scored only
211 points no OMahomas 365.
Michigan State scored 236 in
nine games to 285 for UOLA in
10. Mississippi scored 251 to
TGUs 293; Vanderbilt 215 to
Auburn 211, and Pitt and Geo
rgia Tech aro really close at
181 and 182, respectively.
All of which will mean exact
ly nothing when ttihe teams
square off Jan. 2. They won’t
be out there to match records.
