Oklahoma And Notre Dame In Feature Tilt By UNITED PRESS The Oklahoma - Notre Dame game at South Bend, Ind., Saturday is listed as the “big game” on college football’s week end program, but there are several other battles which will have a direct bearing on conference championships and bowl berths. Clemson got an early start on Saturday’s heroes Thursday by edging South Carolina, 7-0, in their annual "Big Thursday” game at Columbia, S. C. The Tigers’ victory enabled them to take over undisputed possession of first place in the Atlantic Coast Conference and moved the ma step nearer to a New York’s Day engagement in the Orange Bowl. Oklahoma A&M and Kansas meet today in a game originally

scheduled for Saturday, while George Washington hopes to take over undisputed first place in the Southern Conference tonight against William & Mary. In two or Saturday’s most important conference games, lowa, the Big Ten Conference co-leader, plays Purdue at Lafayette. Ind., while Georgia Tech will risk its Southeastern Conference leadership against pustart Tulane at Atlanta, Ga. Although lowa is one of the 10 major perfect record teams remaining, the Hawkeyes are fivepoint underdogs against Purdue. Georgia Tech is al3-point favorite over Tulane but will have to be on its toes against the Greenlee, who have knocked off Navy and Mississippi in their last two games. Another wing-ding battle is expected at Waco, Tex., where ninthranked Baylor will entertain sev-enth-ranked Texas A&M in an important Southwest Conference clash. Baylor is unbeaten in four games, but the Aggies are the favorites off their upset victory over Texas Christian last week. If Stanford can get by Southern California in their Pacific Coast

ConlaraMa "pick *asn” game Indians will be on the road to the Bose Bowl. But Chuck Taylor's young men will have to stop the Trojans’ Jon Arnett, who will be playing his final college game.

In the other major conferences, Princeton can tie Yale for the Ivy League lead by beating Cornell, Colorado hopes to remain unbeaten in the Big Seven against Nebraska, and Montana State risks its perfect Rocky Mountain record against Colorado Western. There doesn’t seem to be much hope for Notre Dame in its tussle with Oklahoma, which will be nationally televised. The Sooners dropped out of first place in the United Press ratings this week following Michigan State's 47-14 victory over Notre Dame, so they probably will attempt to out-do the Spartans against the Irish. Top-ranked Michigan State, however, isn’t expected to surrender its spot that easy, and will show little mercy against Illinois. Four-th-ranked Tennessee should romp over Maryland, fifth-ranked Michigan meets Minnesota in their annual “Little Brown Jug” game, eighth-ranked Ohio State hopes to bounce back from its loss to Penn State against Wisconsin, dnd Texas Christian, tied with Baylor for ninth place, entertains Miami. Other major games include West Virginia at Penn State, Oregon at Pittsburgh, Army at Columbia, Navy at Penh, Colgate at Yale, Northwestern at Indiana, lowa State at Missouri, Houston at Auburn, Kentucky at Georgia, Texas at Rice, Florida at LSU, North Carolina State at.Dukc, UCLA at Oregon State, and California at Washington.

Report Lopez Favorite For White Sox Job CHICAGO (IP) — Marty Marion began a "one year vacation," expenses paid, today while the Chicago White Sox embarked on a search for a net manager, expected to end shortly with appointment of Al Lopez, Marion quit the job Thursday, but he gave the White Sox an opportunity to give him a vote of confidence or fire him. “I offered them my resignation with the provision that they pay me for 1957," Marion said, “and they accepted.” His contract extended through the 1957 season, and he said he had no plans for the future, except that he would like to stay in baseball. And he intimated that he would get that chance sometime. 3 "I want to stay in baseball,” he said, "but I'm not going to coach and I’m not going to the minor leagues. I’ve got a couple of good businesses going and I like St. Louis. I’m just going to sit there, and enjoy my vacation.” Marion said he understood the White Sox would have to pay him his full salary, an undisclosed amount, for 1957 regardless of whether he accepts another baseball job or not. Lopez, who recently resigned as manager of the Cleveland Indians, was mentioned as the new manager in Marion’s presence and Marion made only one comment. “If it’s Lopez," he said, “tell him to bring his pitchers with him. And if it’s Casey Stengel (manager of the New York Yankees), tell him to bring Mickey Mantle," Marion’s disgust with the Sox front office began in the last week of the baseball season when Vice President Charles D. Comiskey said that his manager had done a “creditable" job. “They were not happy with my work,” Marion said. “We all felt that we might have won the pennant and we didn’t do it. So I resigned and they accepted.” Marion left the future open for a manager's berth. He pointed out that all the major league manager’s jobs were filled now, but said, “There’s a lot of seasons to come, and sometimes things happen Qi mid-season” Marion directed the.Spx Jqy «tlje last two seasons in his third managerial job. He piloted the St. Louis Cardinals, where he once starred at shortstop, to third place in 1951 and directed the St. Louis Browns to eighth place in 1953 in the Browns’ last season in St. Louis.

Moore, Patterson To Fight Nov. 30 CHICAGO (UP) - Light heavyweight champion Archie Moore and Floyd Patterson each will receive about $150,000 for their fight Nov. 30 for the world heavyweight championship, president James D. Norris of the International Boxing Club estimated today. Moore, 43, and Patterson, 21, Thursday signed formal contracts for the bout, providing that each fighter get 30 per cent of the net gate plus television receipts. Norris revealed that the payment to display the fight on television with Chicago, Milwaukee, and South Bend, blacked out would be $200,000. “The house is scaled for $471,000 with tickets priced from $5 to S3O and we feel it’s a very attractive match," Norris said. “Adding the television, we think we will pay off on about a half million dollars net to the fighters.” Norris suggested that a sellout crowd would set a new indoor fight record for both gate and attendance. The present money record is $422,919 for the Rocky GrazianoTony Zale fight July 16, 1947 in the Chicago Stadium and the crowd record 20,008 for the Graziano - Ray Robinson bout in the same building April 16, 1952. Norris said the contract for the fight did not contain a clause calling for a return match. Wosconsin Is an Indian name meaning the meeting of the waters.
