ROSE BOWL OLDEST HOLIDAY
CLASSIC
Quick now, how many football .bowl games will be played during the holiday season? Rose, Sugar, Orange, Cotton . . . can you jiame all of the post-season contests? f Probably not. Chances are someone is starting a new bowl game and the word hasn’t gotten around yet. ’
