AFTER it reposed in West Lafayette for a year, the famed Old Oaken Bucket was back in Bloomington today and Bo McMillin, head coach of the Indiana Hoosier gridders wore-a broad grin. . . .

basis of their season records,

“second choice” Tennessee. The Trojans are favored to maintain their record of never losing a Rose

ance there. It will be the second for Tennessee, providing a “rematch” of the 1940 game when Southern California topped the Vols, 14 to 0. Tennessee accepted a bid yesterday after Ohio State's perfect record Big Ten champions lost out because the conference faculty rep=resentativese refused to rescind the ban against post-season games. Although Southern Calfiornia has been tied twice it is now at peak form for the year and has survived a more rugged schedule than once tied Tennessee.

Surprise Chofce

Belection of Duke, beaten four times, to play Alabama in the Sugar Bowl at New Orleans, came as 8 surprise. Yet the Blue Devils are favored because of a good showing despite a gruelling schedule. Beaten by Pennsylvania, North Carolina Pre-Flight, Navy and] Army, Duke at one time faced three perfect record teams in a row. Los-| ing to Army, the Blue Devils went| on to drop Georgia Tech and Wake Forest from the unbeaten ranks. Alabama, tied by Tennessee, faced mediocre opposition much of the

way. Oklahoma A. & M. opposing Texas Christian's “opportunity

kids” in the Cotton bowl at Dallas, Tex., are favored through the medium of a common opponent, Oklahoma. ‘The Aggies defeated Oklahoma 28 to 6 Saturday and the Sooners handed Texas Christian its only defeat, 34 to 19. The Christians, who play Southern Methodist, a traditional foe in their finale this week have been underdogs in most games but have capitalized on breaks to win. Georgia Tech Favored Georgia Tech is favored to repeat. its 20-18, 1944 Sugar Bowl victory over Tulsh, this time in the Orange Bowl at Miami, Fla, mainly because the team has been tempergd in winning seven games and losing two against top flight opponents. The Engineers lost only to Duke and Notre Dame and have that magnificent 17-15 upset of Navy on the record. Tulsa's strongest foes were Oklahoma A. & M. and Towa Pre-Flight and it lost both games, : The Army-Navy game at Baltimore Saturday gets practically all the attention in a limited slate of games which includes Notre DameGreat Lakes naval, Oklahoma-Ne-braska, and Arkansas-Arkansas A. & M., Rice-Southwestern and Texas Tech-South Plains A, A.

Giants Ready For Redskins

NEW YORK, Nov. 27 (U. P)~ The New York Giants, with a timely assist from their old enemies, the Chicago Bears, were ready to fight it out today with the Washington Redskins for the Eastern division National league football championship. The Giants, eyeing the scoreboard gleefully, gained a hard earned 7-0 triumph over the Brooklyn Tigers at the .Polo Grounds yesterday, while the Bears were knocking the Philadelphia Eagles out of the lead with a 28-7 upset victory in Phila~ delphia. Meanwhile, the Redskins kept pace with the Giants by de geating the visiting Boston Yanks, 14-7. ‘ That combination of victories and defeats set the stage for a championship meeting when the Giants and Redskins close out their regular schedule with a home and home meeting. The teams play at the Polo Grounds next Sunday, at Washington the following Sunday, and will determine the site for a third game, if necessary, by the flip of a coin. ' The Eagles, by winhing both of their remaining - games, next Sunday against Brooklyn and the following week against Cleveland, could edge in ahead of the Redskins and Giants, provided they divide their two games.

Successor to

J : * udge Landis CHICAGO, Nov. 27 (U. P)—~ Speculation as to who will succeed the late Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis as commissioner of baseball was rife today with the most logical choice for the post definitely on record as saying he would not accept it. : He is Leslie O'Connor, Landis’

picked secretary, who told the Unit~ ed Press recently, “I positively wi not take the commissioner's ae if it is offered‘ to me.” ‘O'Connor's refusal ostensibly removes one of the top candidates from the list of prospective successors since it was the 56-year-old lawyer who served as Landis’ secretary from the time the former Federal judge took over as baseball czar in 1021, Would Serve on Board

O'Connor will continue to handle the tion of baseball's government until the Dec. 11-13 major league meeting here at which time the club owners will select Landis’ successor. Although he said he would refuse to take the commissioner's post

"|alone, O'Connor added he might.

consider a position on a three-man commission. That type of governing body has been frequently mentioned as the probable choice, with President William Harridge of the American league, President Ford Frick of the National league and O'Connor presiding. The body of the aged commissioner was cremated Saturday, shortly after his death, and in conformance with His wishes, no, funeral service was held. .

MacArthur Mentioned
