WILL THE NATION'S number one college football team be p playing on New Year's Day this year? There's a chance it will not-and that does not even include the possibility of Michigan's declining a Rose Bowl bid. The Wolverines do, have a shot at being number one by the holiday season. If both Oklahoma and Nebraska lose by then or even if their heralded encounter on Thanksgiving results in a poorly played draw, the Wolverines could be catapulted into the top spot in the wire-service polls. More realistically, however, Michigan will have to be dis- satisfied with being second best, at least until after the Bowl games. The number one team will be the winner of the Sooner-Cornhusker battle. The irony of it will be that bowl bids will be extended prior to that game-as big a game of the century as ever was played- and also prior to the contest between Southeastern Conference titans Auburn and Alabama the following Saturday. Therefore, whereas the best match-up might be the winners of those two games in the Orange Bowl, the nation's sports fans will probably not be so lucky. The Orange Bowl is reported to be coveting Nebraska and Alabama-but what happens if both teams lose their big games? If the bowl committees were practical, they would all agree to wait to extend invitations until November 27, when most of the important games will have been played. The folly of making bids before the season is over is height- ened this year by the unusual number of teams which remain undefeated. Georgia, which takes on Auburn this week, and Penn State, an attractive team to the bowl because of all those tele- vision watchers in Pennsylvania, round out the seven major teams. which have not yet lost. Should Nebraska be given an Orange Bowl bid, the Cotton Bowl would probably be reluctant to have Oklahoma. The Cotton Bowl is committed to inviting the Southwest Conference winner, and Oklahoma has already defeated Texas, the likely champ. One of the bowls may even pass up all those undefeateds and take Notre Dame, whose talent this year seems to fall short of its glamour. Which leaves the problem of what to do with second ranked Oklahoma. The Sooners, led by Wishbone-master Jack Mildren, may have the best four players ever put in one of- fensive backfield at the same time. Notre Dame's fabled four hoursemen, Pestilence, Famine, War and Elmer Layden, may have to take a back seat to Okla- homa's quartet of Mildren, Gregg Pruitt, Joe Wylie and Roy Bell. But even this speedy group may be upstaged by New Year's Day's perennial all-stars known as the Rose, Orange, Cotton and Sugar Bowls. According to present speculation, Oklahoma may have to be happy playing in the Gator Bowl, or even the Astro-Bluebonnet Bowl. Hopefully, that speculation will be as unfounded as the report, which received wide circulation a year ago last Septem- ber, that Notre Dame would appear in the 1971 Orange Bowl. But the smart money seems to say that Auburn will play against Texas, Arkansas or Texas Christian in the Cotton Bowl and Georgia will face either Penn State or Notre Dame in the Sugar Bowl. If that's the case and fans bewail the absence of Oklahoma, bowl committees will blame early invitation dates. Even still, better match-ups could be possible.

Milwaukee led 61-58 at the half. Bulls bomb CHICAGO - Jim McMillen ac- counted for 28 points last night to lead the red-hot Los Angeles Lakers to a 122-109 victory over the Chicago Bulls in a National Basketball Association contest. The victory was the 10th against three losses for the Pacific Divi- sion leaders while the Bulls suffer- ed their third straight setback for an overall 7-5 mark. After Chicago raced to a 26-24 first quarter lead, the Lakers ral- lied behind McMillen and Happy Hairston to help Los Angeles to a 56-50 halftime bulge. Gail Goodrich of the Lakers, who collected 24 points, teamed up with Jerry West to account for 18 points in a furious third quarter. The Bulls remained in contention and trailed 88-83 until the Lakers outscored Chicago 13-5 in a three- minute last-quarter flurry. Bob Love led the Bulls with 25 points.

The 7-foot Smith, the Braves' No.' By JOE PHILLIPS "I don't know when I've seen our players so high," m u s e d coach Duffy Daugherty after watching his Michigan State Greenies dump the Ohio State Buckeyes 17-10 last Saturday in the snow and rain of half- deserted Ohio Stadium. On the other side of the field, Woody Hayes looked like he could have stood a good shot of Irish whiskey anyway. "Our de- fense was magnificent," he said. "Our defense deserved to win. But our offense didn't play well." Hayes paused, almost theatric- ally. "Since I coach the offense, I guess you can say I lost the football game." Little Eric Allen scored both touchdowns for the Spartans on five and one yard smashes but he was held to just 79 yards rushing for the day. As Hayes pointed out, "When you check the statistics it was a Mexican standoff." But it was an aroused Spar- tan defense that made Woody such a humble loser. End Doug Halliday fell on an OSU fumble late in the third period, setting the stage for Allen's s e c o n d score, snapping a 10-10 tie. In thesecond quarter, Michi- gan State safety Brad Van Pelt set up the first Spartan touch- down when he intercepted a pass from Ohio State's Don Lamka at the Buckeye 37 and returned it to the seven. "I shouldn't have called that pass in the first half," said Hayes, second-guessing himself. Despite the humble assessment, Hayes pulled senior Lamka from the game and didn't let him up off the bench until the fourth quarter. Hayes denied that Lamka was hurt but refused to comment about his decision to go with NHL expands NEW YORK (iP)-The National Hockey League's Board of Gover- nors voted yesterday to grant new franchises to Atlanta and Long Island with the teams scheduled to begin play next season.

Condor attack. But the real story * 1 I u i i E I Gri~dde Pickings By VAUGHN R. SMILODECTES Daily Libels Eggsucker Shackelford and Chip Papanek came to race at yesterday's Frieze Building 500. The opponents were the best: Student Counseling Office tigers Charlie "Speed" Bateman and Gay "Vavavoom" Curtis. The sport was ... office chairs! Lurking in the background, taunting the racers, was the treach- erous, winding Frieze course over which the unpredictable wheel- chairs would careen. The past history of the course spoke volumes: since the initial Frieze 500 in 1936 no less than 61 racers had been maimed, mutilated or downright killed on it. The first elimination race was a classic, pitting Shackelford against the evil, no-holds-barred Bateman. Luck was with Eggsucker: Bateman spun out on the homestretch (breaking his voorman) and Eggsucker sped home to win in world record time of 66 seconds. Papanek, nothing if not noble (degenerate maybe), ran a pur- posely inept race and allowed Gay of SCO to limp home the victor. Just another case of a man who was a sucker for a pretty face,. . . The championship race was, quite honestly, a farce. Eggsucker, his eyes glazed from exertion or something, veered madly over the dangerous course and coasted home the champ 1. MICHIGAN at Purdue 12.
