This University of Mississippi @ream duo—a double nightmare to the opposition—is a touchdown partnership that has had oppon- ents gasping all season. Hapes When it wasn’t Junie “Li'l Butch Hovious running for a touchdown it was Merle Hapes slamming ‘his way for one, or Hapes intercepting a pass for one or ‘Hovious doing ‘the same thing, cr Hapes passing to Hovious— and-on and on. Both these fellows—Hovious, the 155-pound powerhouse—ean do anything wth a football andj they’re in-there together. When the Rebels-need a long booming punt straight down the field Hapes gets back and lets fly (he averages 44 yards a kick). If the situation ealls for a spot kick out of bounds that’s Junie’s job—and he’s averaged 36 yards a try. Should the situation demand a scoring thrust—ana quick— either one is likely to crack thru for a touchdown, or they are just as likely to team up on a pass play for six points. Statis- ticians have figured that every time either Hovious or Hapes gets his hands on the ball you can chalk up for Mississippi. For an example of the way these fellows work, take this scoring resume of the Georgia game. Hovious returned a punt 19 yards, ran right end for 25, ran center for 3, passed to Hapes for 8, passed to Popp for 15 and a touchdown. Hovious ran back punt 96 yards for second touch- down. Hovious ran back another punt 25 yards, Hapes ran the end for 26, Havious hit center for 8, and Hovious ran back another punt 25 yards, Hapes ran the end for 26, Hovious hit center for 8, and Hovious passed 26 yards for a touchdown. Hapes in- tercepted a pass and ran 75 yards for a touchdown just to complete the day’s work. Hapes and Hovious have south- erners talking of the days of Hack and Mack of Tennessee and many of the fans argue ‘this part- nership is even ‘mére efféctive. And the beautfiul part of it— from a Mississippi standpoint—is that both are juniors.and will be back in there again next year punting, passing, running and generally causing opponents mis- ery.

University of Miami Hurricanes are preparing for their battle with the University Mississippi Rebels Friday night _ BETTER BOWLING the third of ten lessons on bowling.) STRAIGHT BALL By ANDY VARIPAPA Famous Bowling Authority (Written for AP Feature Service) The hook or curve ball deliv- ery is difficult to master so I urge beginners to start with the straight ball and work for con- trol Once they have gained some confidence and accuracy they can attempt the hook. of To roll a straight ball the thumb is placed in a_ straight forward position and it leaves the ball first with the finger or fingers (depending on whether the bowler is using a two or three hole ball) leaving last. This re- sults in the ball rolling in a straight line. The bowler should be careful to aim in the direction of the pocket (the area between the No. 1 and No. 3 pins) and should follow through as in all deliver- ies. At all times the bowler should take care that the bail does not drop behind the foul line but lands a few inches over the line, giving the ball a proper start.
