Niagara made a fight of it in the second half as the rangier West erners faded. For the first half, the - smooth - passing Brig h,a m Young quintet was far the better. With Ray Fullmer. Joe . Weight, and diminutive Rand Clark hitting consistently from the field, the Cougars drove to a 30-15 half-time lead. Fullmer scored 10 points during dur-ing this spree, while Weight and Clark each tossed in three field goals. Niagara was missing both from the field and foul line, and the playing of the purple Eagles did not improve much until only 10 minutes remained. Then rugged Eddie Keim and a couple of unsung substitutes, Ed Murphy and Jack Kiernan. found the range. Niagara .poured it on throughout the final minutes, min-utes, but just didn't have enough to bring home its third victory of the season.

"Bowl committees are conducting con-ducting their games with little lit-tle consideration for the competing com-peting teams," .Alexander told Sports Editor Dan Danforth of the Atlanta Journal. "Especially "Espe-cially In the matter of tickets. Big businessmen in the bowl cities buy up all the choice seats. "Unless you know Joe or Morris, Mor-ris, you cannot get a seat. The teams that make the game possible pos-sible are allowed a fraction of what they might expect. Never are there enough for their stu dents and faculty, not consider ing alumni and friends." "It is just possible that the Na tional Collegiate Athletic association associa-tion will extend its investigations into bowl games and inspect the method of distribution of gate re ceipts and tickets, Alexander added. 4 "The NCAA might then compile a list of certified bowl games and refuse its members permission to participate in any others. All col leges of any standing are members mem-bers of the NCAA." Alexander went on to point out that at least 24 bowl games were listed between now and Jan. 1 and of that number he knew of only two that would meet his proposed NCAA standards of ticket distribution the Rose and Cotton bowls.

Dec. 6 (U.R) The University of Kentucky par layed power and deception into a one-two punch that ripped vil lanova college of Philadelphia for an upset 24 to 14 victory in the first annual Great Lakes bowl today in municipal stadium. The meager crowd of 14,008, lost in the confines of the vast lakefront bowl, saw a bang-up game by two colleges that played as if it were the beginning of the football season rather than the end. Sparkling line play by the Kentucky Wildcats, particularly the pivotal work of Jay Rhode-myre Rhode-myre of Ashland, Ky., all-Southern conference center and the tackle chores of Wash Serini of Tuckahoe, N.

The brilliant generalship of Johnny Lujack, Notre Dame's ail-American ail-American quarterback, and the slashing runs of halfbacks Emil Siflco and Bob Livingstone' and fullback John Panelli were an unbeatable combination. Livingstone, filling in for the Paint, injured Terry Brennan, uncorked a 92-yard run through the middle of the Southern California line for a touchdown in the fourtfi period to give the huge crowd in Memorial coliseum its greatest moment of a thrill-'packed alter-! noon. But that run was almost matched match-ed by Sitko's 76-yard run on the first scrimmage play of the second sec-ond period, also good for a score.

Red Devils. 29-24, Friday night on tne Bingham court. - The game was as close and ex- ' citing a battle as any cage fan would want to sec with neither team getting much of an advantage advan-tage until the waning moments, when the Miners, led by center Mickey Culeton. turned on hr heat in desperation, Culeton paced the Bingham couriers with 14 points while Fullmer at forward and Christen-sen Christen-sen at center each tanked cigl.t counters for thelosers. and the issue is-sue was in doubt right up to the final whistle. . The Red Devils held a slim 16-15 margin at the halftime, but were trailing 22-21 at the third period end. The final quarter was a nip and tuck battle right down co the wire. The play of the Irish backs was matched by the brilliant line work of Capt. George Connor, Bill Fischer, Ziggy Czarobski, Leon Hart and Jim Martin. The game was close during the first half, with Notre Dame hold ing a 10 to 7 lead at halftime, but the Irish speed and ability evidenced evi-denced itself in the second half when they ran up 28 points while holding Jhe Trojans scoreless. The victory left Southern Cali fornia supporters awe-stricken and painfully thinking ahead to the Rose bowl game when their team must meet Michigan, rated almost as good as Notre Dame. Southern California put itself in the hole on the first running play of the game when Verl Lilly-white Lilly-white fumbled and Notre Dame recovered on theUSC-33. With the home team bewildered by the unexpected bad break, Sitko, Livingstone Liv-ingstone and Panelli alternated to advance to the seven, but there Southern California stiffened. Kicking specialist Fred Earley then booted a field goal from the 13 to give the Irish three points in the first four minutes of play. Southern California, impotent for the first 25 minutes of the game, came to life late in the second sec-ond period after quarterback Jim Powers intercepted Lujack's pass on Notre Dame's 44. Speedy Gordon Gray and Jack Kirby went in at the halfback posts and began skirting the Irish ends working the ball down to the six. After two plays failed to gain, Kirby raced around his right end to score standing up. Dec. 29 B&H Pharmacy vs. macy. Jaycees: Taylors vs. Carlsons.
