NEW YORK, Dec. 2 — (VPi—Two newcomers broke Into the list
of sectional scoring leaders in college football last week as the
season closed for most of the top-ranking men, but they had no
chance to overcome the head start they nad given to Jackie Hunt of
Marshall College and Tom Harmon of Michigan.
Although their campaigns Ylnsed the previous week, Hunt scored
a total of 182 points, all resulting from 27 touchdowns which est ab-

— Presiden Lorenzo Di Benedetto
of the National A A U. left last
night for the organization's annual
meeting in Denver, predicting a
strong movement to do something
definite about setting up perman-
ent machinery to conduct periodic
Pan-American games.
Plaas for an association to
handle the games among western
hemisphere nations, which have
been widely discussed since Euro-
pean warfare caused cancellation
of this year's Olympics, are among
the principle matters to come be-
fore the meeting which is set for
Friday through Sunday.

Four "Major" Grid Elevens
Undefeated As Season Ends
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON. Jr.
NEW YORK, Dec 2 — iJP)—
There aren't enough games left on
the 1940 football schedule to have
any groat effect on the season as
a whole, so it appears to be about
time to summarize the results.
The final big week of the cam-
paign produced only one major
change in the status of the lead-
ers. That was when the mighty
Texas Aggies were beaten, 7-0, by
Texas for their first defeat this
season. That not only broke a
string of 19 consecutive victories
but it kept the Aggies from win-
ning their second southwest con-
ference title outright and put
them out of the running for the
mythical national championship.
Next Saturday's game between
Southern Methodist and Rice will
unless they tie, decide which team
will tie the Aggies for the confer-
ence. Despite that defeat Texas A.
and M, still is very much in the
running lor a place In the Orange
Bowl or Coton Bowl games New

unofficial ruler of Eastern foot- Texas and South Carolina-Citadel

as equal to Boston College in the
East, had r perfect season and

record.
Here Are The Ratings
Reviewing tne results by sec-
tions. the top teams are rated
about this wey.
East — Even a narrow escape
against Holy Cross, when the Eag-
les won 7-0 with the "breaks"
couldn't deprive Boston College
of the No. 1 raltng and invita-
tion to play Tennessee In the Su-
gar Bowl. Beaten once but still
very close to the top are Ford-
ham, which will play in the Cot-
ton Bowl game; Georgetown,
which may meet Santa Clara in
a Christmas Day game in Califor-
nia; Pennsylvania, unofficial "Ivy
League" champion, Duquesne and
Penn State.
In last Saturday's windup games
Fordham swamped its old rival,
New York University. 26-0. and
Duquesne conquered its Pitts-
burg Rival, Carnegie Tech, 14-7.
The day's biggest game, though
the season's records don't support
that contention, saw Navy whip
army 14-0, in n cofite t that wasn't
any more ineresting to the 102,000
fans than the parades which pre-
ceded it,
South
South—Tennessee, when it beat
Vanderbllt 20-0, marked up a
string of 32 consecutive regular-
season victories, which stamps the
Volunteers as a great team oven
though there may have been a
few more soft spots in their sche-
dules than were necessary. Mis-
sissippi State qualified for an in-
vitation to the Orange Powl with
a 13-0 triumph over Alabama. In
other southwestern conference

beating; Georgia turned Georgia
Tech 21-19 and Louisiana State
beat Tulane 14-0.
Duke, while it finished only
second to Clemson in the Southern
conference standing, proved Its
right to about equal ranking when
it conquered Pittsburgh 12-7 in a
final intersections! scrap. Clemson
and Duke didn't meet this
son. Other windup games saw
Davidson beat the Citadel 20-0 in
Saturday, and Georgia Tech-Cali-

only four years since the confer-
ence was formed in 192B.
With Tulsa already holding the
Missouri Valley conference title,
St. Louis University ended the
campaign with a 3-0 victory ovqr
Washington University.

game, delayer! the ballot until af-
ter next Saturday's game.
Among the southwestern Inde-
pendents, Hardin-Simmons re-

ranks by whipping Howard Payne

suffered its first defeat at the
hands of New Mexico, 19-14.
Arizona outscored Marquette 17-14

Pacific Coast
Pacific coast — Quite according
to predictions, Stanford had its
closest call of the year against
California, winning out 13-7.
Meanwhile Southern California,
which plays Notre Dame next
Saturday, whipped the hapless U.

ference by scoring 27 points in

llllllllllllllllllll IIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIII
By DEWITT MACKENZIE
Mussolini is making a desperate
effort with heavy reinforcements
to remedy the already far-reach-
ing effects of his Greek defeat
without having to thrust aside his
pride and appeal to Hitler for help.
A Fascist communique this mea -
ning reported that defending Ital-
ian troops h'ad thrown back the at-
tacking enemy in one sector. The
! victorious Greeks, however, claim-
! ed to have made important new
1 advances all along their l.'ne.
That line, working on a pivot on
the Adriatic coast near the Greco-
Albanian boundary, is swinging a-
cross the mountains and valleys of
Albania toward the sea like a
wind-screen wiper.
This astonishing success of the
little Greek army against the might
of Rome is having a tremendous
moral effort on both Britain and
the neutral countries of the Bal-
kans.
The Turkish press even claims,
with evident relish, that the Nazis
have been balked in their scheme
for assaulting in the Near East
by means of a drive across the
Dardanelles. The British already
are talking of the possibility of
utilizing Greece as the gateway for
a grand offensive by land against
the German rear.
All this savors a bit of wishful
thinking, of course, but there is
no gainsaying the Greeks, with
British help, can hold their ow>i
agaist Italy, they will have opened
up an invaluable base for English
opeititions against the axis.
It will give the British a land
foothold against Hitler which they
have not hoped to achieve for an-
other year at best, owing to their
inferiority in the air.
As a matter of fact the Fascists
have got themselves into a pre-
dicament from which it would be
extremely difficult for Hitler to
rescue them at this time. There
are only two really feasible forms
of help the Fuehrer could give
his axis partner — one being with
an air fleet; the other the sending
of an army against Greece through
either Yugoslavia or Bulgaria.
There can be small doubt that
the violation of the nervous neu-
trality of either Yugoslavia or Bui

PALO ALTO, Calif.. Dec. 2 —
(/P)— Stanford University, unbeat-
en and untied Pacific Coast con-
ference champion, and the Uni-
versity of Nebraska, once-defeated
titleholder of the Big Six. will
clash Jan. 1 tn the annual Rose
Bowl fooball game at Pasadena.
Announcement of Stanford's in-
vitation and Nebraska's accept-
ance for the game was made
here last night, and immediately
Stanford authorities began pre-
parations for the contest .
Al Masters, director of Athle-
tics, said he would leave by plane
today for Pasadena to set up the
ticket organization. His office al-
ready has been deluged with ap-
plications for seats, some 90,000
of which are available. Large
blocks of tickets are expected to
go to alumni of the two universi-
ties.
First Time
Nebraska, defeated 13-7 by
Minnesota in this year's opening
game, never has played in the
Rose Bowl, Stanford, which clos-
ed its regular season last Sat-
urday by beating University of
California 13-7, last appeared in
Pasadena in 1986, when the In-
dians beat Southern Methodist 7-
0.
Stanford, with a new coach In
the person of Clark Shaughnessy,
former Chicago mentor, made u
phenomenal sweep this year after
a dismal 1939 season which netted
only one victory.
Stanford started strongly this
season by crushing the University
of San Francisco 27-0 and bowled
over successively Oregon, 13-0.
Santa Clara 7-6, Washington State
26-14, Southern California 21-7,
University of California at Los An-
geles, 20-14, Washington 20-10,
Oregon State 28-14 and Califor-
nia 13-7.
Take The Rest
The Cornhuskers bounced back
from their defeat to complete their
schedule with the following vic-
tories: Indiana, 13-7; Kansas, 43-2;
Missouri. 20-7; Oklahoma, 13-0;
Iowa. 14-6; Pittsburgh. 9-7; Iowa
State, 21-12; Kansas State, 20-0.
Major Lawrence "Biff" Jones,
Nebraska coach, said his team
would train at Lincoln until after
the Christmas holidays, the move
to Arizona. Stanford will train
here for the present.
DRAFT ROUTINE HALTS
WHILE OFFICIALS AWAIT
"BLESSED EVENT"
GREENVILLE, S. C., Dec. 2—
(A'.—A young married man who
has just received a draft question-
naire from his draft board is in
a quandary.
He confided to'board members
that he was expecting an heir at
his house momentarily and would
like to await the event before re-
turning the questionnaire. If not,
he would be forced to leave out a
dependent, because to take credit
for an additional member of the
family before it arrived was too
risky.
The board clerk could find no
rules to fit the case.
The man was given five more
days.

now Connie Mack has nixed all
offers to sell or trade Frankle
Hayes — and he has had plenty
. . . Washington U. would have de-
manded a Rose Bow! showdown if
Stanford had lost Saturday.
Why All The Fuss?
Apparently Joe Louis takes Al
M'C'oy more seriously than a lot
of other people . . . anyway, the
champ arrived in Boston for train-
ing armed with two baggage
trunks loaded with training equip-
ment . . . Boston writers were as
surprised as anybody, and some of
them said so.
Odds And Ends
Few persons know it, but the
day after he lost his first game
with the Washington Redskins
four years ago, coach Ray Flagh-
erty was given a ten-year contract
by owner George Preston Marshal!

Flynn, is going on an extended
tour with his fighters . . . New

plained, Is awfully keen for a Max
Baer-BiUy Conn fight. Personally,
we thought the Conn-Savold fight
in the Garden the other night
smelled to high heaven — not that
there was any business done, the
fight Just smelled.
Laugh Of The Week
Those New Orleans bookies who
didn't know the Brown-Columbia
game was played during the morn-
ing and accepted bets right up till
noon, just as if nothing had hap-
pened — and took the worst shel-
