Abolishment of
Football Bowl
Jameilequesled ,,
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3 — MPI —
Ten college presidents studying
what's wrong with sports decided
unanimously today that post-season
football bowl games should be abol
ished.
They also decided that:
1. Freshmen should not be per
mitted to play on varsity teams.
2. Athletic scholarships should
be handled by the schools through
the same committees that would
handle other student aid.
3. High school graduates can not
be lavishly entertained by colleges
hunting prize athletes.
4. In order to compete, an ath
lete should have to keep up with
his class and make steady progress
toward a degree.
The proposed penalty: any vio
lating school might lose its academic
accrediting, which would mean that
its work would not be recognized by
other institutions.
The presidents are members of a
committee set up by the American
Council on Education- to study the
sports picture.
Before their decision can be final,
they must be accepted by the execu
tive council of the council on edu
cation.
Americans Swat
Swedish Opponents
In Net Tourney
MELBOURNE, Australia. Dec. 13
— (Jl — Tony Trabert and Ted
Schroeder virtually swept their
Swedish opponents off the courts
jn the first two singles matches of
the U.S.-Sweden interzone Davis
Cup final today and were expected
to finish the job Friday by taking
the doubles in similar convincing
fashion.
Tony and Ted, whose selection for
the singles over Vic Seixas and
Dick Savitt caused some surprise,
each won their singles matches in
straight sets to give the U.S. a com
manding lead. A victory in the
doubles will put the U.S. in the
challenge round against Australia.
Trabert crushed Sven Davidsson,
6-3, 6-4, 9-7. Then the veteran
Schroeder from La Canada, Calif.,
stormed over Lennart Bergelin,
Sweden's No. 1 player. 6-2, 6-2, 6-4.
Davidsson and Bergelin will pair
against Tony and Ted in the
doubles.

Football Coaches
0‘ Coast Have
Gripe Session
CARMEL. Calif., Dec. 13 — Wl —
Pacific Coast conference football
coaches held an extraordinary gripe
session yesterday, and though no
direct accusations were made, the
University of Southern California
got the spotlight.
Coach Howie Odell of Washing
ton brought a condensed film ver
sion of the USC-Washington game
at the request of Husky faculty
I representative, Prof. H. P. Everest.
“Odell did not introduce the sub
! ject of rough play," Everest said,
“but when it came up, we showed
the pictures.”
USC Coach Jess Hill brought his
own films, but as far as known
the films were not shown.
He blamed some new'spaper and
magazine writers’ charges of “dirty
playing” by his Trojans for their
poor showing in their final game
with Notre Oame.
Everest said the conference was
not pointing fingers, but some
coaches questioned the “vigor” of
some games.
Hill told a friend: “Those con
densed films did not show the
scene where A1 Carmichael of USC
was carried out of that game in
the second quarter.”
Everest said the meeting was
satisfactory because the coaches had
a frank discussio::.
More Honors
Handed Out
To Kazmaier
NEW YORK, Dec. 13—W-.All
America, Back of the Year, Foot
ball Player of the Year, and now
the star who dazzled them all in
one big game.
We are referring, of course, to
Princeton’s Dick Kazmaier, whose
sensational feats on the gridiron
long will be remembered.
For his magnificent clutch show
ing against Cornell on Oct. 27 in
the clash that had been rated the
game of the day, Kazmaier was
chosen as the player who turned in
the most outstanding single per
formance of the recent football sea
son.
In the Associated Press’ poll of
sportswriters and sportscasters to
determine who had staged the
greatest one-day 'show, Kazmnier’s
distinguished day against Cornell
was picked by 36 of the 102 poll
participants.
Against Cornell, he ran for two
touchdowns and passed for three
others; he carried 18 times for 124
yards and completed 15 of 17 passes
for another 236 yards. Final score;
Princeton 53, Cornell 15.
Rated second in the poll W'as
Fred Benners’ amazing aerial ex
hibition for Southern Methodist
against Notre Dame on Oct. 13.
Thirteen of the balloters picked
that performance as tops.
All Benners did was complete 21
passes in 41 tries for 326 yards and
all four touchdowns to defeat the
Irish, 27-20.
Third went to Hugh McElhenny,
University of Washington’s All
America fullback, for his spectacular
show against UCLA. Hurryin’ Hugh
scored all of the Huskies’ points in
the 20-20 tie, tallying the tying
touchdown by grabbing a pass and
hustling 25 yards for the six pointer
in the final 65 seconds.
