Nov. 23.—Wt—'Two of the Big Nine's greatest football players, fullback Art Murakowski and center Alex Sarkisian, will ap pear in the Rose Bowl with North western as all-conference selections. The league’s coaches, who an nually choose the Associated Press All-Big Nine team, awarded the runner-up Wildcats with two places and paid tribute to undefeated Michigan with four berths. Third-place Minnesota also land ed two spots while Iowa, Indiana and Purdue each gained one. Representing Michigan, which re peated for the conference title and helped pile up a 23-game win ning streak, are quarterback Pete Elliott, end Dick Rifenburg, tackle A1 Witert and guard Dominic To masi. Guard Leo Nomellini, the only holdover from the 1947 honor lineup, and end Bud Grant were picked from Minnesota.

With Elliott and Murakowski In the No. 1 kackfield are Purdue's Harry Szulborski, Big Nine ground gaining championship, and Indi ana’s George Taliaferro, an excel . nt tr pie-threat. The Wolverines' Rifenburg, a pol hed wingman who topped the Big Nine in pass catching, was the only unanimous choice. Each coach named him on tneir first team. He gged a maximum of 18 po nts.

Holy Trinity Parish Hall, Sat., Nov. 27th. 50 3t CONTROVERSY IS STARTED AT ROSE BOWL SELECTION PASADENA, Calif., Nov. 23.—(iW— Michigan’s football power appar ently still hovers over the Rose Bowl. Such was one line of thought to day as the newly fashioned lineup for the annual New Year's Day tattle was discussed. It'll be California of the Pacific Coast conference against Northwest ern ol the Big Nine. Conference faculty athletic rep resentatives. by secret telegraphic } ballot, voted California into the Big Bowl—for the fifth time. Oregon, tied with California in conference standings, lost out—un beaten in conference play, but de feated in the battle of the ballots. That's where the Michigan influ | ence may have exerted itself. The Michigans. by Big Nine rules, were barred irom -appearing twice in succession in the Rose Bowl, where last New Year's day they massacred Southern California’s Trojans. 49-0. Last Oct. 2 they blanked Oregon, 14-0. Theoretically, the faculty minds aren't supposed to dwell on non ! conference results. But, toeing not a thing away from Pappy Waldorf's good-looking Bears, it is barely possible that one or mere of the faculty eyes paused un consciously over that • Oct. 2 oc currence. The actual vote rema ns a deep secret: open to speculation, but never, according to Commissioner Victor O. Schmidt, to ire answered. Even the count, he said; might put me of the conference brothers “on ' the spot." It will be Northwestern’s first trip to the Bowl.

Michigan fin ished its season Saturday by down ing Ohio State, 13-3, while Notre Dame still has two more games to Play.

Oregon moved up from 13th to ICth. becoming the only new mem ber of the top ten. Army again held third place, al though the Cadets were idle await ing Saturday’s finale with Navy, tut North Carolina moved into fourth place, displacing California, by a 20-0 decision over Duke, The Michigan-Notre Dame-A r m y-Cali fornia lineup had held true for two straight weeks.
